Android : Alternate Emulator Keyboards
Feb 10, 2010
I'm trying to diagnose an issue with the hardware keyboard for the Motorola CLIQ (among other phones with a 3-row hardware keyboard), but seeing as my device has a 4-row keyboard, it's impossible to reproduce the problem users are having. Are there any alternate keyboard layouts for the emulator out there, or will I have to roll my own? I've looked at the layout file for the skins, and it seems like a lot of work, so I wanted to make sure I'm not doing a lot of work I don't need to do first.

Is there any way to hook a plugin in the default SMS messaging application so that it invokes our code for sending SMS. Can our app become an alternate SMS sender for default Messaging sending operations.

I have the Droid, and was wondering what the best Alternate Application for a Keyboard is? And I need it to be 100% safe, I am pretty skeptical about using apps such as a keyboard app since it could possibly remember what you type and steal passwords, etc.

I m new to android application development. I made a project on getting feeds of sites. I displayed the title and description of feeds in textview which is not looking very presentable. Is there any alternate to it? I just need my application to look a bit presentable.

Got a Droid Eris, love Sense, don't really like the music player. Too laggy for me, I tried Mixzing, and also is too slow. Anyone else have any other players that are speedy?

I keep getting emails from people and companies wanting to release my Android app on various alternative markets, and often they want me to send them (or upload on their website) my apk. What are the risks involved with this, how much can someone reverse engineer my app from the apk? How many other developers release their app on places that aren't the android market? Is it a fairly common practice?

I was just wandering if anyone knows of an alternative streaming app? I want to try a different one to see how it performs,currently every stream i open (my mobile tv service) uses HTC's streaming media player, if there is an alternative could i set it to the default player so it uses the new app for my streams?

I'm extremely agitated that Gameboid won't play Golden Sun 2; the only reason I bought the app was to beat this game. But I guess it's partially my fault since I should have checked beforehand.
Anyways, that leaves me with the question of what to do. Is there any other emulator, free or paid, that exists for the V1.6? Anything at all?

I've seen specialized Android UI libraries like for charting, but none for alternate implementations of controls and containers.

The ALS allows a sim to have two phone numbers registered to it and gives the ability to the user to choose from which line (1/2) s/he wants to make a phonecall or send an sms/mms. Also allows for any of the two lines to receive calls without having to turn the one off first.
Most old school mobile phones support this feature. Does android support ALS natively and if not do we have any idea if this is a planned feature? Also would it be possible for this to be coded as an application?

I'd just like to sing the praises of the RAC Traffic app. It's bloody useful, especially for those who have a commute along the British motorways. Last week, I set off towards the M40 in Warwickshire and hit a bit of traffic. Unusual for 7:35am along that route. The traffic started building up and I started to panic in-case I was late for work. So, I got the Wildfire out, loaded the RAC Traffic app and had a look. 90 minute delays on the M40 Southbound. As I was going North, I stayed in the traffic jam. Needless to say, where the roundabout was that split the North and South traffic there was absolutely no traffic going my way.
Extremely useful as I stopped panicking and just listened to Last FM (via Bluetooth). It happened again this weekend, too! We were going on a trip (around 45 minute drive) and we hit traffic. Got the phone out, looked at the traffic, and managed to use an alternate route through the residential areas using my SatNav. I'd strongly recommend this application to anyone who has to do a bit of driving/has a lengthy commute.

I was actually wondering if the Dev version of the G1 would ever be available with different keyboard layouts...
I'm getting old and my brain isn't flexible enough to switch between keyboard layouts anymore... errr... ok, let's say that the low-to-zero availability of the G1 elsewhere on the planet would make a localized version more than appealing... not only for AZERTY-addicted people like me, but more for the day to day usage beyond the dev tool it is.
I know the G1 is coming out in a few days here (at a big price tag), meaning the keypads and hardware exist, but hyper locked, (sim and bootloader), as a futur dev, and continuous geek, I'd love getting an officially "FRogalized" Dev G1 :-)
Would choosing the kb layout ever be possible in the Android Market checkout?

I continue to search for the optimum virtual keyboard (I have a Droid).
I've used:
Default Keyboard - Not bad but far too basic lacking even some of the simplest features.
Better Keyboard - A good effort but I hate it's secondary key feature. Instead of a brief hold it's a brief hold AND a select.
HTC Touch Keyboard - Very good keyboard but not for the Droid. Low resolution, doesn't size right and lacks any AI to deal with situations like making "dont" show up as "don't".
Swype/Shapewriter - Both were interesting for about a week and then the novelty wore off.

Is there an App that switches keyboards depending on the program in use? I know i can just long press and change it, but i was wondering if there was something out there, that could do this automatically. For some reason with swype when i send emails they either wont send or take hours to send. But swype works fine for text and other functions.

Im just curious about this. Ive been around the Incredible forums a lot and hear sometimes about the newer VZN keyboard smartphone coming out in the future. I was pretty stoked about this new big HTC phone but realized it had a keyboard and I immediately got turned off. I dunno about you guys but I NEVER got into the physical keyboards and really prefer the touch version 10 fold.

I saw a thread about this the other day, and cant find it for the life of me. basically, it lets you use swype or something in portrait, and switches to a multitouch keyboard in landscape. any idea what it was called?

Was wondering if it were possible to have it set so that Swype would be the default keyboard for portrait & whenever you switched to landscape, the default Android keyboard would pop up as the default?
I did read this post here & was wondering if the info still stands. Figured I'd start a thread here since my question's not Incredible-specific.

Could an alternate home screen app replace the assets such as s "menu_item_background_pressed.9.png" or "list_selector_background_focus.9.png", both found in frameworks/base/ core/res/res/drawable in the open source project? I have altered those by changing out the assets and recompiling.
But can I make it so the installation of the home screen will open up framework-res.apk, replace the asset, then re-package framework- res.apk? I realize this would then have broad ramifications, but just wondering if it could be done. thanks.
Also wondering if a alt home screen app, can replace icons of core apps, such as Contacts, etc.

Is it safe to use 3rd party Keyboards, (such as Big Buttons etc)? I only ask as i installed a keyboard app, went to enable it but it came up with information saying it collects credit card data and password data.. Wasn't comfortable with this so cancelled enabling it and uninstalled.. I need a keyboard as the one on my phone is pretty good but a bit too small. Can anyone shed a little light on this and recommend me a Big keyboard for the Pulse mini

What should I do to get different input keyboards for text input in my Android. For example when I want to input text in Korean, I want a Korean KB. And if I want to do the same in Chinese, I want to get a Chinese keyboard. How do I do it programmatically?

Sense dialer is slow, unintuitive, and tacky. Any alternate dialer apps that anyone uses out there? One thing I think is crucial to me is the iPhone like alphabet along the side so you can quickly press the letter of the contact you want to call, effectively making it quicker with less screen taps. Sense dialer is very slow as far as load time as well.

I am on a Verizon family plan. My line is not due for an upgrade for a long time, but another line on the family plan is (just a standard flip phone). my question is: Can I use the other (flip phone) upgrade to get my self a new incredible WHILE leaving the flip phone a standard, non data line? When i go to purchase online using the upgrade, it makes me choose a data plan.

Does anybody know any keyboards apps which are an improvement to the standard X10 keyboard. I used to have a great one, which showed the voice input on every single text input screen, but since i had to restore my phone, Ive lost it.
