how to delete new htc keyboard?

anyone knows how to delete the new htc keyboard(dutty's one), so that I can restore the input method to htc's original one?
cos I found it is not capable with some of my applications,
any help will be grateful, thanks in advance!

I want this also...the new thing, doesn't work for me...can help it!
So, someone???

My way to uninstall built-in apps:
1-Look for an uninstallable cab for the exact same app & same version.
2-Install this cab in the Device memory. The new files & registry keys should replace the old ones for the same software AND will make it uninstallable
3-After softreset (if needed/preferred) go ahead & uninstall the app
4-We're not done yet using SKTools/PocketMechanic or any other system tool software, cleanup the RAM, broken links & bad registry files..
NOW you got rid of the unwanted built-in software
But I'm not quite sure if this is HEALTHY for the device

the only problem that I have is that sometimes the keyboard is stuck at the numbers, so I can't type a normal text message with letters.
I found a work around.....
if you are experiencing that problem, open your opera browser and click on the address bar. then the keyboard will change back to qwerty

You can try to disable the input by using some tweaker like SKTools

Gota try it thank you, all of you!

How to change system icons using ssh?

As a previous iPhone user the one thing I can say I miss is the ease of using the ssh feature after jail breaking and having access to the system files If I wanted to change lets say the "camera icon"- I could ssh into the phone and go into the system file folder and find that one file name, remove it and replace it with the new icon jpeg. That's it! End the ssh session and BAM! I have a new icon for my camera.
Or if i wanted to change the dial pad background on my phone or the way the keys light up on my old iPhone I would just ssh and go to the "phone" jpeg file and just change it out. and BAM I have a new phone skin.
I'm sure you get my point....
So now that I'm using Android I love how the options are there to change. However I'm OCD and don't like to download all these files and icon packs which takes up storage on my S3. So I have installed sshDroid and using Filezilla successfully accessed my phone. ( Yes I'm rooted)
Now I downloaded a few icon packs but I don't want to keep the download on my phone. What I want to do is choose a few icons I like, ssh into my phone and replace lets say the "google+" icon with a new one.
The question is where in the world is the file? How do I access the stock system icons?
This is where Android is awesome to customize but hard as crap to find files.
Can someone provide me with instructions, or a link to instructions on how to do this?
I've been on Google and I'm not really finding the answer to my question. I just simply want to change my icons so I can make my own theme.
Please help! Thanks

You have to use an icon pack in a launcher or decompile the app you want to change the icon for and then swap the icon out and then rebuild the apk and install.
Your better off with an icon pack. As there is no easy way. Android was made for developers mainly.

Emoticons

Is there a way to modify AndroidEmoji file or something else on a rooted S4 to change the Emoticons to be similar to the traditional yellow smiley types?

LG Keyboard iOS 9 emojis??

So I've been searching everywhere, and I read an article that said the G4 now supports seeing the new ios9 emojis. But can the G4 keyboard type them?? I went and ported the ios9 notoemoji or whatever file, so I can see the emojis, but the keyboard apk's that come with the file that support typing the emojis are either the google keyboard or xperia keyboard. I like the LG keyboard the most out of any other, and I don't want to leave it but I want to be able to type the ios9 emoji and not just see them. I also tried to install the lg g4 keyboard and v10 keyboard hoping that they would have the option to type the emojis, but they didn't. Is there any way to get an LG keyboard that has the ios9 emojis available to type?? Or am I just f##ked out of luck and forced to use the google or xperia keyboard?? Maybe a dev can modify the LG keyboard to be able to type ios9 emojis?? I'd most def pay for it.

Anybody know how to switch Emojis? (Mostly solved now, but still need help)

I tried using the Emoji switcher app but that didn't work. I've also tried flashing emoji zips, but that didn't work neither.
EDIT: I managed to get it to work by renaming hTC_ColorEmoji.ttf to TC_ColorEmoji.ttf so the phone wouldn't be able to find the HTC emojis. But then I noticed that there were a few emojis that were black and white. So I went /system/etc and followed the steps from here (in the spoilers). All the new emojis show up just fine now, but I can't get the diverse skin tones to show up like I was able to on my Galaxy S6 Edge, if anyone could help me out with that. I would greatly appreciate it!

your keyboard has to support the skin tones. if you have the latest version of the google keyboard it supports them with a long press of the emojis that have skin tone alternatives.

I'm aware of that. Unfortunately, it still won't work.

I have them working on mine. What I did was find the emoji file I wanted, make three copies of it, name one notocoloremoji, htc_coloremoji, and hkgcsh00d. Copy those three files to system/fonts, and reboot. For some reason I have to make sure the background in keys setting is off, but it works perfectly for me now.
