Replacement Keyboards not working. - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've tried swiftkey X, as well as ICS Keyboard neither will replace my keyboard, even after selecting them. Whats wrong?
2.3.3
r800at
Stock kernel
Rooted
Unlocked bootloader

After selecting them, did you go and long-press a text box, then select input method?

press and hold the screen on a text input and select 'input method' then change it to the keyboard u want.
and read my signature.

Poop.
I can't find it...
But just to reassure you, I HAVE seen this hack implemented.
And it's a simple text edit.
I'll keep searching.

This could potentially be helpful as well...but I don't see mention of GNex support, so maybe go the manual route.

[Q] cannot activate JB

I just updated the update to my HTC one X with icecream sandwich. but I am not getting the info cards on my homepage, nor am I getting anything that resembles JB. does anyone know if I can activate somewhere, and if so how do I access JB homepage, I don't even see a tab for it... thanks in advance,
If you mean Google Now, long-press Home on the homescreen to activate search and it should prompt you to activate Google Now.
Long Press "Home" Capacitive button?

They do the same thing, I just wasn't going to assume he'd left the search widget on one of his home screens

But this is not a normal apk, it's a system app. you have to push it to system/app/SamsungIME with the permission 644.

Then i'm sure you are on the N5 port and a lower dpi. The N5 keyboard i not multi dpi capable, even with xposed app settings.

How to add a navbar?

Hi guys.
Im a real big stock android fan, and so i also really like it to have softkeys.
Now, i will be upgrading to the Lineage OS for our device when it comes out of the alpha, but i would really like to have a navbar with that.
Can anyone make another thread to show us how to do it? You can just reply to this message too.
But just make kind of a tutorial, do i have to root, or not?
Just tell me how to do it please.
Thanks guys!
Mike

If you want to get a real navbar you will need root. There are some apps that allow the navbar with just a click like this one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fatedevgroup.softkeyenabler or you could do it the hard way by editing the build.prop but there's a higher chance of messing something up.
Just go to /system/build.prop file and add "qemu.hw.mainkeys=1" without the quotes.. Every phone has a built in Nav bars

Hi, I have been using this for a while.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tw.com.daxia.virtualsoftkeys
It's not really a nav bar, it doesn't require root.
It's overall quite good, I did not feel any lag using it.
Hope I helped

Thanks, I haven't tried this app before, but I did try a similar app. They're all right, but the only problem is they cover a part of the screen. They are not part of the system. And that's what I'm after. But thanks anyways man!
