Android Keyboard

[Guest AychTeeSee]

Hello everyone out there in Android Land-

After a brief affair with the AOSP Android 2.0 ROM, I thought the default keyboard felt alot more natural than HTC's implementation (at least to me). Is there anyway to restore the default Android keyboard in Paul's rom?

Thanks!

Hello matey.

Just stumbled across this post as I've just left AOSP2.0.1 ROM and gone back to MCR3.0 and wanted the Android Keyboard back. Dunno if you still have this problem but maybe others do so heres the solution; I pulled the LatinIME.apk from from your Vanilla MoDaCo ROM and used adb to install it into Paul's MCR3.0 and it works fine. Heres the file:

just run the following command with ADB:

adb remount

adb install LatinIME.apk

adb shell reboot[/codebox]

(I didnt actually need to reboot for it to work but its always best to play it safe)

then just hold down on a text input area and select Input Method > Android Keyboard.

Job done!

I tried this process and it wouldn't install the LatinIME.apk via adb install.

I did an adb push and that worked, but the keyboard still doesn't show up as a selectable option anywhere on my phone.

Help!
