I disabled Sense but now want to turn it back on, but I don't see an obvious way to do this. Anyone know how? Also, are there good alternate virtual keyboards for the EVO? Not sure how much I'm liking the stock one.

I have an edit text field. When the user clicks on it by default it shows small letters on the virtual keyboard.
I want by default to display first letter caps and rest of them small on the keyboard.
How can this be done?
I want that on each key press I require to change the Counter some what similar to Tweeter Thing but the issue is that OnEditorActionListener only calls for the change while the user presses Enter or Done key, Please Can I Find a Resolution for this.

View 13 Replies View RelatedI'm getting the G1 next weekend and am wondering how long until a virtual keyboard will be available. I really like the idea of having a full slide-out keyboard but I would also like a virtual one so if I'm not wanting to say much I can just use the virtual keyboard or if I'm in an area where it needs to be quiet I don't need to have the sound of the keyboard sliding open.
View 14 Replies View RelatedThis is my 3rd HTC but first Android (Had a Blackberry Curve too). Like Hero a lot but the onscreen keyboard is driving me batty! First off, it doesn't work well if my fingers are cold. And second off, it does not seem to be accurate, especially on the far right hand side. Also, I swear my fingers are quite small and even if I press a letter smack dab in the middle, I get the letter above. And don't get me started on the backspace key.
I really really like my Hero. But I need a different onscreen keyboard. Can anybody make any suggestions? I can't do any programming, etc. so it will have to be a pretty much straight download.
I have been experimenting on how to make an easy backup of my apps when installing different (alternate) ROMs, and I tried to use the method that Fabolous uses, but my DROID doesn't seem to like that method at all.
Not.

So, I remembered some instructions that I saw earlier, in another thread, on how to edit the color of fonts and such in your system, and I thought "Yanno, that push / pull can be very very useful if I can figure it out." So, I played around with some trial and error, and got it working. Now, with my system, I have edited the System PATH environment variable to include the full path to my Android SDK tools directory, so I can simply run adb commands from the run dialog (like Code:
First virtual kb, came from 11 years of Blackberry use. I really like the EVO, it is a lot more powerful than the BB. However, I can not seem to master this kb. I have gone from being able to click out about 35 wpm on a bb, to struggling to get through a 100 character text with this. I have installed "better keyboard" from the market, it did help slightly. I still have the same issues of getting a . when I thought I hit space, an a when I thought I hit s, etc. I know the words fill in on a bar above but that is very hard to watch as you type and makes it even slower.
Is there a good keyboard out that anyone uses? I have no interest in swype, so I am not going to go that route. The problem seems to be the size and shape of the EVO, holding in portrait, the kb is too small and the phone has to be constantly adjusted to keep it from slipping, then of course, if you barely even touch the screen or a button, it acts on that. In landscape, its almost too wide and you have to reach for certain keys and always hit another on your way over. It would help maybe, if there was anyway at all to adjust sensitivity.
Basically I want to capture Alt-key combination to provide some customized alternative text input. For example Alt-f would put FOO into the text field. However there doesn't seem to be ALT key on the virtual keyboard in ether portrait or landscape. Is it possible to fake Alt key on the virtual keyboard somehow?

View 10 Replies View RelatedUsing the 1.5 SDK. I have an application with a TabActivity and when I change from one tab with edit fields to another that does not need any user input I would like the virtual keyboard to be hidden. I've tried setting android:windowSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysHidden" on the manifest for the activity that doesn't need user input but it didn't work (maybe because the activity is triggered by a TabActivity).
I've found the method hideSoftInputMethod(IBinder, int) in the InputMethodManager class but I don't know how to get the IBinder object that this method needs.
How do I get that IBinder object? Are there other ways to hide the soft keyboard?
It would be even better if I could make the soft keyboard automatically hide when an EditText loses focus.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI was fillding with EditText and handling of events, and I was wondering on a strange thing:
If you press some of the keys (for example forward slash '/') on the emulated physical keyboard, the keyevents are called as usual (onKeydown, the KeyListeners etc). If I click on the corresponding virtual key on the onscreen virtual keyboard, all these callbacks do not get called at all! This is strange, given that If I press other keys like alhpanumerical, the events are called.
How can I get an event when the user opens or closes the virtual keyboard..?
