HTC IME with Speech to Text - Droid Eris Android Development

Hello!
Sorry if this has been asked and answered but I searched for it and could not find any info, although I swear I read a post about it the other day.
Anyway, where can I get the HTC IME with the Text to Speech function? Im on Tainted Vanilla and want to add that IME to it..
thanks.

I posted this the other day but it didn't seem like anyone cared.

I took the HTC_IME keyboard with voice input from the leaked myTouch Slide ROM and to my surprise it worked on the Eris. The only problem I've noticed is the user dictionary will crash when you try to open it. If someone would like to fix it that would be great.
While I think you're better off with jonasl's HTC_IME mod I think some people may prefer this.
Download HTC_IME-vi.zip (mirrors)
Download HTC_IME-vi-undo.zip (mirrors)
Copy HTC_IME-vi.zip to your sdcard and flash it as you would any other zip.
Flash HTC_IME-vi-undo.zip to get rid of this keyboard and go back to the default HTC_IME.
I don't know what will happen if you use this on a ported Hero or other custom ROM. I can tell you that it works on a plain rooted ROM.

I cared. Used your link to jonasl and it works great. Sorry about not acknowledging your contribution.

Are you looking for the vanilla keyboard? It's here http://android.grdlock.net/ under the extra's section

I downloaded and installed the HTC_IME Mod and when I went to use it for the first time I got a security message saying that any text entered including conversations, passwords, and credit card information can be recorded and sent to the developer.
I am deleting it right away ! ! !

That's the default message you see when you install a keyboard. You'll see the same thing if you try Swype. But don't install if you're not comfortable

Ohh, I see. I am new to all this.. So this program can not capture that information then? What is Swipe?

What does "flash" mean? if i want to get rid og the new HTC_IME..how do i flash it?
Thanks

I can't believe an image with Google results for "white people smell" is considered offensive. Jesus Christ lighten up.

I suppose in theory it could, but the one I posted is straight from an HTC ROM and the HTC_IME mod has the source available. If there was anything fishy in it someone would've spotted it by now. This is Swype.

It means you would flash it like any other zip through the recovery menu. This is only for rooted phones.

TouchPal v3.5 released

TouchPal3.5 Overview Video:

The best input method.
Thanks for the heads up on this - I'm a registered user, but I never seem to get the email updates. Do they actually send them?
I'm liking this version so far. It looks nicer and has handy little features. The "More" button on word suggestions was badly needed.

Ahhh, I see. Thanks for the hint
Nah, don't use this one, it makes my device run slow (I have an Axim at 600Mhz and with touchpal runs like 200MHz).
Better try FTPRO from www.fingertouchpro.com , it's fast , cool and has more options. For me it's the best software keyboard.
LOVE TOUCHPAL - but when i type "its" my Orbit soft resets !!!!!!
Have no problem using TouchPal on my Cruise, which runs on 400Mhz chipset.
The 'Its' bug has been fixed. Redownload the latest installation file from Cootek website.

is that so? did you download the official release? or something someone else posted? because I've been using TouchPal since version 2 and all the bugs have been ironed out. I have caught 3 of the bugs myself and they were fixed within 24hours.
TouchPal is my main sip, I use it at least once every 30mins while I'm awake. 3 times I've used it to write 5 page essays on my mobile. it's capable and fast once you get the hang of it. yes, there is a learning curve but it shouldn't take too long to get it.
to get the hang of it I'd say the best way is to open notes/word/textmaker or whichever is your favorite and type random words that comes to mind. it's the same layout as on a computer keyboard. so it shouldn't be too hard to understand where each key is located, plus you don't have to press the actual letters of the word you're trying to write, pressing the ones beside it will work just fine. its text prediction is really good, you can turn off the text prediction if you don't want it.
however, the text prediction is pretty good at saving typing the time it takes to type words.
eg: typing the word "circumstance", all I have to type is "circu" and it shows up in the word candidates.
lol, it's word association is good too, if it type word "nasty" it will show "masturbation" in the word candidates, lol. it sure saves me typing time when searching for these kind of videos in WVD lol.
get the file from www.CooTek.com and remember to select the download for the os you're using.
have fun
This looks pretty sweet. I will try it out in a few minutes.

HTC Touchinput in 1.5

My friend is unhappy with the Android touch keyboard, and he discovered that switching the input language to Chinese replaces it with the HTC TouchInput. Does anyone know if it's currently possible to replace the Android touch keyboard with HTC's version without switching the language? I'm attaching a screenshot that he took of it. Thanks.
Why? Switching the input doesn't affect the usage at all. You get the bonus of inputting Chinese, and lose nothing.

Oh, would you happen to be able to tell me where to get it? My friend doesn't remember since he did it when he first got his G1.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=5158you can get the IME you need in this thread as well as some help. Remember you need to push three files for it to work. Oh and you need to use adb
Hi,
A good keyboard that I am using is called big keys updated.
Get it on the market ,do a search, it's free.
It works on on 5.02 h and should work son all cupcake builds.
It also gets rid of the annoying gmail tutorial.

I can do all of that and I have the adb ready to go too but it says the link is invalid (I did remove the 'you' in it as well). As far as I knew I thought threads had six digit references.

No need to be sorry! Thank you for helping me out, I got more than what I was looking for. Have a good day (or night ) further.

anyway to get normal android keyboard?

just like the title says. i can't stand the default hero keyboard anymore. yes i've tried to calibrate and it drives me crazy. i'm looking to get the normal android keyboard.
GOOD GOD!!! Why would you want that thing on your phone?!?! lol To each his own, but have you tried better keyboard or touchpal they are very good, I like them both more than the HTC_IME. I can see why you might want the regular keyboard though wish I could help more. Having you tried pulling the apk out of a standard android rom and just installing, couldnt hurt to try right?
disclaimer: if you try and it hurts, I am sorry but not responsible

haha. yeah i've tried better keyboard and it's not really that much better. good call on the touchpal, i've had success with there winmo keyboard so i'll try that. if that isn't to my liking how would i pull out the apk from a standard android rom or can you at least point me to the right direction?
Try the dream forum go to Google and search xda Dev dream and it should be the first result. Then download a custom rom and unzip the file and you will have to look through I can't remember the location, unless someone would like to chime in with some help. Then put the apk if its in that form on your sd and click on it from the phone using a file manager from the market, Linda works great. Not sure if its that easy just giving you ideas of where to start. Beware that most custom dream roms replace the standard keyboard with htcime. Hope I helped a little.

ok awesome thanks! i'll give that a try. also do you have any idea why touchpal is not in market?
I think that the best keyboard out there is the HTC "Compact QWERTY" that ships with the Hero. Lighting fast.

cyanogen roms rock BUT!!! NEED TO ADD HTC_IME.APK

This is my 2nd night trying to get the htc_ime.apk to work in my girlfriend's g3, and mine too. after i updated the phone to the 4.2.8 cyanogen roms from the cm-updater both thc_ime. keyboards don't work it forecloses. so 2 nights and now i downgrade it to 4.2.7 and it works just fine, other thing is like when im in the browser with the 4.2.8 roms afer pressing home to check text it takes like 5 secs to go adding wallpapers and pictures frames does the same thing. cyaonogen you rock and nothing by respects for you my friend but could you please add this app to all your roms????
Why are you posting this here ?
HTC IME is not included in Cyanogen's ROMs because he only includes parts which he has express permission to distribute, since the whole Google fiasco. Since the HTC IME is closed source and riped from a Hero dump he doesn't have permission to distribute it. He will most likely never include it again.
Check torrents and see if u can grab it there, i dont have it or id put it on a upload site for ya.
