Motorola Droid :: Still Lacking Multitouch Keyboard
Dec 1, 2009
Does anyone know if this device will EVER get MT on the soft boards? I have read elsewhere in the forum of people swearing it has it, but it just isn't true. What's the point of it being capable of it when the function that needs it most is lacking it?

Looks like someone over at XDA's got this ported. Already confirmed to be incompatible with Froyo, but I'm sure there are plenty of people running 2.1 that want to give this a try.

Anyone know how to get this to work? I really love this keyboard but i love froyo more...
Heres a link to the .apk file, if you dont have it. It works with 2.1, but not 2.2 (force close every 5 seconds)
If someone could edit this to make it work thatd be amazing.

When I choose to reply to an email(or anytime I use the keyboard), Espanol appears in the Spacebar position. Yes, the spacebar still works but the the suggested words appear in Spanish as I key letters in. I checked and rechecked English in the Language/Keyboard option in Settings but it will not go back to English. This started a few days ago and I do not know why?

Also - I would like some more feedback on those who have this Droid X Keyboard on their Evo.

Am I right in that the stock HTC Sense keyboard on the EVO doesn't do multitouch? If that is the case, is there any way to enable this or does it require a marketplace keyboard?

I have been having typing issues with the HTC keyboard not seeming to support multitouch and I'm almost positive that it didn't i.e. when I'd hit two buttons at the same time only one would register leading to zillions of typos because I suck. Well anyway, I went and downloaded and installed the Skype keyboard, didn't like it, and went back to the HTC keyboard. Now it appears that after the Skype installation multitouch is magically enabled on the HTC keyboard.

Just listened to the Engadget podcast and they said that this device has no multi touch functionality period out of the box. Even the software keyboard does not have it according to them. I need to know if this is real or not it is really bothering me right now. The main reason it is bothering me is because if you go on the VZW Droid Does website in all the features right between turn by turn nav and GTAlk you will see that multitouch is advertised right there. Why would they advertise it if the device does not support it?

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.

I have noticed that there is now a way to put the Milestone firmware onto the Droid to enable the multitouch feature only available in Europe. I was wondering if anyone attempted the firmware update and had no problems with the transition?

I tried better keyboard but it isn't multi touch i was wondering if there is a 3rd party keyboard similar to the stock keyboard that supports multi touch. Coming from iphone it would greatly help my on screen keyboard usage, as the hardware keyboard is awful IMHO.

I had assumed that the Motorola Droid supports the new multitouch APIs in Android 2.0, but the reviews of the device I've seen so far say that it isn't used, at least in the built-in apps like the browser (e.g: http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/30/motorola-droid-review/ ). Apparently though, it is supported on the upcoming GSM version of the same handset [url], so perhaps it is just an issue of whether the driver is included on the Droid version of the software. Can anyone with access to a Droid confirm whether the multitouch API works on it?

For those of you NOT running the Beast or Beauty, Pete's released an update.zip that will install multitouch versions of the browser, maps, and gallery to any 2.0.1 ROM.You'll still need to be rooted, as the update.zip is unsigned, but this bodes well for those running a stock 2.0.1, or perhaps one of AdamZ's ROMs.You know where to find the link, and if you don't, you can check out my blog in my sig!
