Android :: Making A Better Keyboard Skin
Jun 19, 2010
I've searched the entire internet trying to find a way to take the pictures I've made for a Better Keyboard skin and convert them into an .apk file, but no luck.
I don't want to send them to someone to do it for me, because I like to test it every so often to see what needs to be worked on.
So if anyone could tell meskins (clock and weather) not change after selecting and applying them?,

Ok so I know you can make your own skins in Better Keyboard and change the buttons around to your liking. As shown here on the Gum and Oil Slick skins respectively. My question is can I put a button there that access the Settings of Better Keyboard, specifically toggles the "Muli-Tap" setting. Alternatively I would be curious if a button like the one in the bottom "?123" could be changed to say bring up the full Qwerty when in Compact Qwerty, or even vice-versa.

Does anyone know where I can find the keyboard protective skin/cover that comes with the Moment? I think it does a great job of protecting the keyboard but I've had mine long enough that it has begun to peel off. But I can't seem to find it anywhere online for purchase.

Do you like the skins (Htc sense) that are on some Android phones, or do you like the base Android install?

What is this short vibrate while punching the number using keypad. Tried unchecking haptic feedback as well as unchecking touch input. But it still has not resolved the issue.

Does anybody know how to change the clock skin back to original after uninstalling a clock skin? When you uninstall a clock skin, it uninstalls but the skin remains.

And how many people use a skin or case, or even screen protector. Personally, I won't leave the house without my otterbox commuter case on, I just feel like it would be for me to leave me house without clothes on, Dones't feel right.

Can this kind of files (buttons) be used to create android applications, or you must use predefined buttons?

Screens beeing always too small :) I am trying to use a skin without any keyboard.
I got it here: http://sacoskun.blogspot.com/2008/09/android-emulator-skin-without-ke...
I am copying the BILGICIFTLIGI-LAYOUT-P folder inside D:androidoolslibimagesskins (please note my system is on D:...)
When running the emulator, I get such message : [2009-04-29 13:30:30 - Emulator] emulator: ERROR: could not find directory for skin 'BILGICIFTLIGI-LAYOUT-P', please use a different name
I tried using the -skindir option and provided the full path : -skindir "d:AndroidToolslibimagesskins" -skin "BILGICIFTLIGI-LAYOUT-P" ...with no success.
If I use -skin HVGA, then it works....
I have tried on 2 different machines and I get the same result. I also tried renaming BILGICIFTLIGI-LAYOUT-P into NOKBD (short name) with no more success. I have btw first tried -skin BILGICIFTLIGI-LAYOUT-P (no ") with no success.

I've been looking around a bit but didn't find exactly what I'm looking for. I would like to apply a custom skin instead of the default Google Map api on an Android app.
Is there any trivial way to do this? For example, swapping the colors of the streets from yellow to another color?
An example could be the way the game Life is Crime has its custom skin on the regular Google map.

Another example, not Android related is this one:
Google Maps API Styled Map Wizard

For those of you that are familiar with better keyboard. I was wondering about an easy way to switch from the t9 keyboard to the regular qwerty keyboard. I was under the impression that swiping left would toggle between the 2 but all that does is bring me to the numbers and symbols keyboard. I've been changing back and forth to the android keyboard because its faster than going into the better keyboard settings.

I have Galaxy S, Launcher Pro (Free Version) & Beautiful Widgets (Paid)
I can download weather / clock skins, but when i click apply it doesn't seem to apply them. I am stuck with the default skin, even though i have downloaded and installed several other skins. I have tried deleting and re-adding the widget, but it still is stuck with the default skin.
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

I tried it and it works so far.
Dev = ne0fhyk from XDA.
From the XDA forum: Link to app page = [APP][ROOT/Keyboard] Keyboard Manager - Dual keyboard: Portrait/landscape switch - xda-developers
Verbage:
Keyboard Manager allows you to customize what keyboard (input method) appear on input based on your phone orientation.
It displays the keyboards you have enabled on your android device, and let you select one per orientation (landscape/portrait).
As your phone switch orientation, the app automatically switch the keyboard.
Requirements:
- Rooted android device (app was tested on Samsung captivate 2.1)
- Root Explorer app, or similar app that allows you to edit the permissions of a file.
To install:
1- Download the app (KeyboardManager.apk) on your device sdcard.
2- Using Root Explorer, move the apk file to /system/app
3- Using Root Explorer, edit the file permissions like below:
-- User: 'Read/Write' checked
--Group: 'Read' checked
--Others: 'Read' checked
4- Exit Root Explorer
The app should be visible in your launcher as 'Keyboard Manager'
Update:
- Added option to disable notification icon
-' start on boot' feature is disabled because it's not yet complete and tested... Sorry for the confusion
Bugs:
-On certain applications (i.e: Messaging on Samsung Captivate), the input window occasionally freeze on orientation switch. Exiting the app, and resuming should fix it.
The app is still in development.

Was just wondering if anyone else put on a phantom skin for their DI...I am new at the whole "get your protector wet" application and am trying to figure out how long it takes for the moisture trapped in the screen to dissipate so it is clear. I really hope I didn't do it wrong, as it is mostly clear, but still pockets of a "cloudy" look.

Any way to skin K-9? I hate the look of the stock inbox. But it's the only way to save attachments over POP3 mail on this phone, unless my searching and fiddling have failed me.

Wondering if it is possible to disable the SenseUI skin from the Legend? This is, I mean, able to enable it again when I feel like it. I see "HTC Sense" in Manage Applications..what would happen if I press "Force stop" under controls, or Clear Data?

So I chose to get a Phantom Skinz after reading the reviews. My older Droid was having major reboot issues, so I just exchanged it 3 days ago. Once I determined this new Droid had no glaring issues, it was off to install my phantom...Took 1.5 hours. Wasn't thrilled at the way the corners worked, but it was doable. HOWEVER, when I went to take the dog out and bent over to pick up a ball to throw for him, the once-sticky droid (now slick with the full body skinz), slipped right out of my hoodie pocket. OF COURSE the only place that was scratched was the 1mm of bezel that is not covered by the strangely-engineered top/corner cover. Kinda ticked that I wasted, 1.5 hours, only to make my phone slick enough to fall and have it scratched where the "full body" cover didn't cover.

okay my driod is getting harder and harder to slide open. i noticed on the back of the phone when its slid open you can see a plastic film. the clear film began to bubble and i thought thats what was causing the slide to not open smoothly. i took off the plastic and its opening nicer. i think maybe if i clean and lube gentally the tracks it might work great again.

I just hate the solid black look on the face of the phone. I'd like to add a skin to brighten it up. I am not sure if it would mess up the capacitive buttons though. Does anyone know if this can be done? I was thinking something along the lines of the Decal Girl skins.
