I installed the 11-12-12 vivow version of aeroevan's CM10 mod, along with the jelly bean gapps and the ICSv15 kernel.
I have a problem where I can't change the keyboard on the rom. I'm trying to use SwiftKey but every time I try to go to the settings menu to activate the keyboard, either through the apps or through the menus themselves, the settings app crashes.
Could anybody help me with this problem? I would have posted in the main thread for it but I can't post on development boards apparently.
does it look like this? Make sure default it set to swiftkey. I had the same problem.
I don't know why, but I don't see any attached thumbnail, even though there is a box that I assume should be showing it. It's just an empty box titled 'Attached Thumbnail'
Edit: I don't know why, but I can see the picture on the xda app, but not on my computer.
Anyway, the problem is that settings crashes as I try to get to that menu, I can't even see the list of keyboards.

Running the SkyRaider 2.2 w/vanilla theme, I downloaded the Swype Incredible .apk and installed it, set it up, and ran the tutorial. I noticed in the tutorial itself when I was tracing around the keyboard that when I was done tracing no words popped up on the bar. The only time letters would go up there is if i was using it as a regular keyboard (pecking at it, if you will). I really don't have a clue as to why it isn't working as I know many others are using it on the device. Also, I don't think that it has anything to do with the ROM I'm using because I had the same exact problem using it on 2.1 stock and unrooted. Is there a certain file that everyone else is using? I got the file link from this youtube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B_bc3_8slDs
If anyone can help me I would really appreciate it. Even a shove in the right direction would be great.
OK, well I installed one that IS working. Now they just have to tackle the mic button
there's a swype with mic available for our phone in the apps and themes section. you should check it out. it's sweeeeet.
I have been having an issue with CM7 starting with RC3. I'm now on 7.0.3 and I'm still having the issue.
After a day of use, my incredible starts to blank-out pop-ups. I can usually still use them, but I can't see them. This is everything from my widgets to the power button.
I use ClockworkMod ROM manager to install my ROMs and from what I can tell, it wipes everything. Not sure what I'm doing wrong or what, but is anyone else having these issues? OR had these issues and fixed them?
Growing really tired of it and thinking about switching ROMs.
What do you mean by pop-ups?
Also the CM7 nightly thread could probably better answer your question, a lot of those guys only check that thread and no where else and those are the guys who would know best.
By pop-ups, I mean if I click on widgets, like Plume, and want to update my status, my keyboard is not showing, but I can still type letters. Also, have issues with typing in words and it not showing that I am typing them.
I'll try the nightlies thread as well. Thanks for the advice.
I've installed cyanogen 7 in my motorola defy and since then I'm experiencing a problem with the use of multiple keyboards in it.
I have Swype, Better Keyboard and SwiftKey installed, and frequently when I'm into some app and I try to choose which keypad to use, I only have Android Keyboard active.
And no mater whether I have only one more extra keyboard selected alongside with AK or if I have all of them selected, it always end up to AK being the sole active keypad.
Has anyone been through something like this? Or, is it there a way to patch or solve it?

I'm running the Nordic Rom with CM7 and had the similar experience. I resolved this by
1. Selecting the 'swype' as input method in settings/language & Keyboards
2. Opening up the default email and selecting compose
3. Select the options button, (visible on the bottom left of the android keyboard)
4. Selected swype as input method.
This appears to have now default swype across all apps. I've rebooted several times and it has stayed as swype. No idea how to then change to another keyboard
btw i rebooted several times and it has stayed as android keyboard,if got solutions pls teach us how to patch inside cm7.thank!!
Not sure if this will help, or is the issue, but I had a same kind of problem. It turned out the keyboards were on the SD card, and not on the phone. Once I moved them back to the phone I had no problems. I can just long press in a text field, and all my keyboards show. Oh and this is basic, but sometimes we miss it. Installing a new ROM or factory reset means you need to go to the keyboard settings, and checking each box of the keyboards you have installed all over again. I only point this out as I had to to a hard reset, and couldn't figure out why I only had the Android one available. Oops.
Sorry about creating a thread for this awesome ROM. I'd rather ask the question in the development thread, but apparently I don't have enough posts..so here goes.
I just flashed the second version of the ODEXed stock (with APN settings included), and I freaking love how smooth and buttery it is, and have yet to have a FC (the V2 fixes the browser too, for whoever is curious). I already debloated most of the samsung apps, and already nandroided with TRWP. I want to keep this as a daily driver, however, I've run into a problem.
I don't know if this is because it's JB (first time using the 4.1), but is there no lockscreen with security? Just in the off chance that I leave my phone hanging around, I don't want anyone to dig through my phone. Or, perhpaps it's because the ROM is based on a leaked version and they haven't included security settings??
Can anyone help a brother out?
Settings -> Personal -> Lock Screen -> Screen lock = security options
nvm...

another question (again, don't have enough posts)
I flashed the latest deodexed andromeda that smartguy released last night, and today I'm noticing that my time keeps resetting. It's already been stated in the forum, but it hasn't been mentioned enough in the thread and no solutions have been provided.
Would someone be willing to post my question in the development thread or help me out in here?
Thanks a lot.
Also
Along with the time resetting, it's also the date. It keeps reverting to 1/1/12. I'm wondering if anyone else is getting this bug, too. It's been making my swype beta expire. So...after a simple "automatic time and date" uncheck/check in settings, it resets everything back to normal and swype works again.
On a side note, my contacts app works as far as having access to the list, but when I try to edit settings or add contacts, the app fc. I've been reading the forum and I think the solutions posted is for access for the list, but I haven't seen anyone mention about the app fc during editing. I did note that the contact that I tried to add, did add onto the list. Just had to reboot to the crash. I was wondering if someone could help me with that, also.
Well I purchased a couple of i927r's from newegg, got them updated to ICS, rooted. Decided to go with JB rootbox as it seemed to be what I wanted, simple, effective. Just got both phones activated on ST recently, so far been liking them. But a couple issues I am having with them are primarily related to the digital keyboard. I don't really plan on using the physical keyboard much...the phone was at the right price so I guess it's there if I need to use it. But whenever I try to use the digital keyboard for mms, email, searching I hit one letter and it closes. If you keep tapping the word, the keyboard will come back up, but eventually closing again, usually a few keystrokes later.
Both phones do this, both have the most recent rootbox update via goomanager and teamwin. I would post this in the dev thread, but alas I do not have enough posts to. I am searching, but I can't seem to find an answer. I do like the stock digital keyboard, maybe I should try a different one? Anyone else have this issue? The physical keyboard is okay, but I prefer the digital one even on the smaller screen. Thanks for your time.
Have you tried different keyboards.just saying you can try Swype? Or another from the market and see if it still does it.

The default keyboard crashes when used. It is recommended that a third party keyboard is used until the bug is resolved. There's a fair number available on the play store. Avoid any that are directly based on the jelly bean keyboard
