I'd like to show my own IME in the Select input method chooser dialog like the Japanese IME and the Chinese IME. How can I do that?
I am new to Android. I have tested Greek IME and other IME. Although .apk is successfully uploaded. But can't show in it and how to choose own IME from this place.
What do I need to do in my code?

I would like to show a custom input field (specifically, one containing only 9-0 and two extra buttons containing decimal separator (, or .) and a delete button). I could create a custom IME, but (as far as I know) that would have to be set by the user as the system-wide input method. Is there a way to implement an input method and bind it to a specific input field?

This appears on top of an activity with an 'Done' button, however when the edittext is selected and the soft keyboard appears, the keyboard obscures the Done button at the bottom of the dialog. The documentation / blog posts are a little dry on info specifically for dialogs, what do I need to include to get the dialog to pan up or otherwise?

My question is how to implement this Similar result by extends dialog or alertDialog.
Thanks for your reminding me of that. JBQ. From the reference of SDK, AlertDialog information as below. I want to create a dialog but I don't want to have any buttons in the dialog, then I hope to dismiss the dialog after i click any item in the dialog, how should I dismiss the dialog? When the user click the "back" button, it will dismiss the dialog. So I need to send the key message in hard code? is there any other way?
public AlertDialog.Builder<http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/AlertDialog.Builde...>
setSingleChoiceItems (CharSequence[]<http://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/CharSequence.html>items, int checkedItem, DialogInterface.OnClickListener
<http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/DialogInterfac...>listener)
Set a list of items to be displayed in the dialog as the content, you will be notified of the selected item via the supplied listener. The list will have a check mark displayed to the right of the text for the checked item. Clicking on an item in the list will not dismiss the dialog. Clicking on a button will dismiss the dialog. Parameters items the items to be displayed. Checked Item specifies which item is checked. If -1 no items are checked. listener notified when an item on the list is clicked. The dialog will not be dismissed when an item is clicked. It will only be dismissed if clicked on a button, if no buttons are supplied it's up to the user to dismiss the dialog.

View 4 Replies View RelatedOkay, so I know that Google changed the way we choose our keyboards/input methods in ICS, so instead of long-pressing a text-area, we can pull down the notification menu, and choose "select input type"...
However, when I'm typing something while within the default Internet browser, I can't see the notification bar, nor can I find a way to switch input methods... I generally use Swype as my default keyboard, but sometimes need to switch to the stock keyboard. How to accomplish this without leaving the browser?
I am new to touch screen keyboards, and the one on this eris works me every time. I was wondering if there is any way to set default input method as t9 for texting but still have qwerty as default for all else? If not maybe someone could direct me to a better keyboard? I tried sharpnote or whatever for a couple days and actually preferred the stock keys believe it or not!

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for an easier way of switching my input method/keyboard rather than digging through the menus. (I'm using a Droid X, btw.) I constantly switch between the standard mutlitouch keyboard and the Korean keyboard 단글한글. Multitouch lets you hold down on one of the corner keys to bring up the input method selection, but any other keyboard seems to require going all the way back into my settings to change it, often forcing me to stop what I'm doing and jump out of the current application. Any recommendations? I've looked up things like Keyboard Widget, or Keyboard Manager, but haven't had any luck. On that note, if there's any devs out there that would want to create such a app...

I have written my input method on lines of LatinIME. My IME "MyIME" has a service and an activity similar to LatinIME.
Installing it to emulator via eclipse does not seem to work and hence I have tried the following approaches.
MY GOAL: ~~~~~~~~ All I need as the first step to know that I am heading in the correct direction is that I should be able to see "My IME" as one of the available input methods. For example, on any EditText, when I "long click & release", the Input Method menu that pops up must also show "My IME" as one of the available input methods.
However so far the pop-up only shows "Android keyboard" (LatinIME). Hence I tried the following approaches.
Approach-1: =========== I checked out the andorid source code and built & ran it successfully to make sure I got the build process right. I created my project in ~/mydroid/packages/inputmethods/MyIME. It has the package structure 'com.android.inputmethod.myime' (to be in line with Android's package structure, I am not sure if this is required).
I ran a build using "make". Make succeed in compiling MyIME, just like LatinIME and all the android tools were also created. However looking at the build output, LatinIME was installed into /system/app/ LatinIME.apk while MyIME was not installed at all.
Question with respect to approach-1: ------------------------------------ 1. How to get the build process to install MyIME into /system/app as MyIME.apk?
Since install did not happen via the build process, I started the newly built emulator (and newly built ddms to watch logs) and used follownig install approaches:
Approach-2: =========== I ran 'ant debug' to get MyIMESettings-debug.apk. Then I ran 'adb install MyIMESettings-debug.apk'. The attempt failed with the message "Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_UPDATE_INCOMPATIBLE]". Hence I tried the approach-3.
Question with respect to approach-2: ------------------------------------ 2. Why did the install fail when the project was built using 'ant debug'? Is it some thing to do with debug signature?
Approach-3: =========== The build process had created an APK file but hadn't installed it (/ mydroid/out/target/product/generic/obj/APPS/MyIME_intermediates/ package.apk) I renamed that package.apk to MyIME.apk and installed it using "adb install MyIME.apk". The install succeed. However, the adb install put my APK under /data/app with the name "com.android.inputmethod.myime.apk" instead with name MyIME.apk
Question with respect to approach-3: ------------------------------------ 3. Is there any way to get "adb install MyIME.apk" to install into / system/app folder?
Again, what I am trying to achieve is mentioned under "MY GOAL".

For various reasons, i'm trying to write my own input keyboard. So far all is going well except that of creating the suggestions.
I've found the latinIME algorithm, which is all good.
However i'm having major difficulty working out how to load the dictionary in the first place.
I've had a good look round the net, and found various suggestions, but no definitive answers, and i cant seem to get any of them to work.
If anyone has any suggestions on how best to do it, or even better some sample code, that would be brilliant.
LG Dare is a full touch screen phone. One of the input methods actually pulled up a regular dial pad, with letters, and it simulated old t9 predictive text. I have been very proficient with that for years and rather it to a full touch screen key board. Has anybody come across a feature or third party application that would allow me to do that?
