Recommended Posts

I am running a 1.5 MCR stock tmob style (superboot+recovery).

I also have ES File explorer. Can somebody guide me how to upgrade touchpal keyboard from 1.0 to 1.1 ?

1.0 is very buggy....

you need to rename the .zip files to .apk, but it just force closes on my pulse, might be that it's the version for 1.6 ?

Any idea how to find out what version is currently installed?

thx! (have looked in app mgr and touchpal props)

Same issue here, it just gets stuck in a force close loop. Does anyone have a working cupcake version?

Are you referring to the HTC or Touchpal one?

I've just installed both, but didn't bother to try & use Touchpal 1.10 as the build number under "Locale & text" was lower than that of the Touchpal version that came with Paul's U8230 custom rom and therefore deleted it.

The HTC one works fine, I found it easier to hit the keys in full qwerty than Touchpal but it also occasionally lagged a lil so will test it out for a few days and see...

The HTC_IME one.

I can't install it at all unless I install clicker.apk first but even though it will install then it just force quits constantly as soon as I select it for input. I'm on pauls u8230 btw.

I can only think I have a donut version, may I ask where you downloaded it from?

it hasn't force quit for me once yet, I got the htc_ime from here:

..and the clicker.apk from here:

I would imagine you should uninstall any of the htc_ime you got installed already first, good luck ;)

Thanks 'll give it another go in a bit.

Is there any reason why you didn't use the HTC_IME from the second link?

Also did you run calibration?

Just trying to understand why I'm seeing different results.

EDIT: Ahh there appears to be a lib file (libt9.so) with this HTC_IME.zip from the first link.....where does this go? I certainly didnt do anything with that last time.

Didn't use one from second link coz that thread says it's the one for Donut. Don't think you u need the libt9.so file as i tried it before installing it and it worked but I have installed it now, I placed it here /system/lib/libt9.so according to instructions I found on this website http://haykuro.theiphoneproject.org/

When you install calibration it just adds it as a menu in the settings of the keyboard, I haven't personally felt the need to use it so far. To be honest you'll prob just end up going back to touchpal anyway lol
