Physical Keyboard Sound ? - EVO Shift 4G General

Does anyone know how to get the physical keyboard typing sound turned on? Is it even possible? Did it come with the option on our model? Need to know how. Had it on my old TP2 and miss it. Thanks.

i would love this as well, but i don't think it can be done. iv'e gone through everything i can think of in the settings and didn't see anything.

I've only found one setting for typing noise and I'm sure it was for the soft-keyboard. I don't think there is an option for the hard-keyboard.

Yes, I found the otion for the onscreen keyboard. So logic would tell me their has be one for the slideout keyboard also. Not sure why they did this?

i would really like haptic feedback on the hard keyboard

Anyone remember the original typing sound for icq back in the days before AOL bought them? Old typewriter sounds. I loved it but it drove my roommates nuts. Lol

Yea, remember that. It's just I want the option to have sound. Sometimes it would be nice, when I'm somewhere loud.

Well I look at it this way. If the onscreen keyboard can have sound and haptic feedback. Then there has to be some kind of way to add this to the physical keyboard. Maybe trick the phone into thinking the physical keyboard is the onscreen keyboard? Just don't have the skills to do it myself.

It seems to me the hardware keyboard already has feedback and sound. I feel it when I press the buttons and I hear em too

Holding Menu does not toggle on-screen keyboard?

I thought I posted this yesterday, but I don't see it...
I REALLY need this to work.
Am I missing something obvious?
Yup I'm confused bout this. I've been using hardware keyboard a lot so I'm dealing with it but I do miss this. I guess for now just use back to close the keyboard. I did notice that ultra keyboard works when holding the menu button.

I think its a feature for only touchscreen phones, I haven't ever been able to do it on G1 also, but on mytouch and HD2

It works on my Cliq.
With SwiftKey, you swipe down to hide the keyboard... definitely my favorite keyboard.

Flex T9 keyboard free on Amazon!

Flex T9 keyboard free on Amazon. Combines swype and the gingerbread keyboard. I like it, what do you guys think.
Now if we can get someone to make a dark theme for it we will be set.

Ha, been using this keyboard all day. I like! Don't know why I like it cause I hate swype. Been a Smart keyboard Pro user for months.
I like it. It seems to work well. I just wish it did a auto space after punctuation.

I did find that it will automatically put a . if you double space. But that doesn't help with questions.
Definitly like better than swype. I just could not get used to sliding and need to lift my thumbs. This is a great keyboard.

whats with the warning that 'this app collects all input including passwords and credit card numbers"
i've never installed an optional keyboard before..is this a normal warning or should i be worried all my keypresses are being offloaded like CIQ

It just stores all combinations on key presses. It doesn't store out anywhere except your phone.

lol i could spend all day explaining the joke of a keyboard this is.
spend some time with it for awhile and u will see what i mean.
i rotate between swiftkey and a swype-like awesome keyboard with a prediction list that shows up while u slide ur finger around, its no longer on the market but its called shape writer. its available for download around the internet.
I like it a lot better than swype, which I use for portrait. It seems to be more accurate, and the word choice options are easier to use and less obtrusive.
For landscape, I normally use swiftkey, and I think swiftkey is much better for me. Swiftkey does a better job with correction, capitalization, and punctuation, has the option for space key to accept the main word choice, adds spaces correctly, and shows more of your typing at the top to allow for easier editing.
So, I think I'll program keyboard manager to use this for portrait and swiftkey for landscape.
Why are you guys comparing these virtual keyboards when we have a physical keyboard that's now working 100% with no key skips thanks to mkasick? Am I missing something? For quick texts, I sometimes use Swype myself but I use the physical keyboard for just about everything else and since the fix, it's been terrific.

[KEYBOARD] Stock Gingerbread Keyboard without smiley key

That damn smiley key was driving me insane, so I got the Gingerbread keyboard source from AOSP, got it to compile, and got rid of the smiley face button. Other than that, it's identical to the stock Android gingerbread keyboard, so requires 2.3+. Eventually I may figure out how to make it able to be turned on and off, but that would rather defeat the point. Enjoy!
(Note: you have to enable it in the Keyboard settings before you can use it, just like any other keyboard.)
The Eclipse project (source) is available here.
this sounds like a good thing for me because it also became annoying to me.
quick question though because i cant check out the keyboard mod yet, but does it remove the smiley key completely, or does it replace it with an enter key or something?
soon as i get the chance, ill install and see for myself
Nice. I like that it has been replaced with the enter key instead. I find that to be immensely more useful.
I replaced it with the significantly-more-useful return key.

The smiley key doesn't annoy me per se, but the fact that the Enter key was removed does. So now, it is impossible to have any semblance of formatting in your SMS'es.
Will definitely give this a go as soon as possible. This is definitely a must have as far as I am concerned.
Thanks, but i've a problem with your keyboard.
I turned on the vibrate on keyboard settings, but there is no vibration when I push a key.

Hm. I didn't modify the keyboard in any way other than replacing the smiley key, so I have no idea what may be causing that.

It's probably because you've packaged up the WVGA keyboard file, and not the qHD version. The Sensation sports a higher res screen.

That would make sense, but I don't see why the same keyboard wouldn't work on all devices. I mean, looking at the code, I see nothing that would prevent scaling. I was never asked for a target screen size to compile for, nor do I see any way to enter it. If someone could explain a way to fix it, I would gladly rerelease a qHD-compatible version.

You should try and work it out that Long Press of the return key let's you select smileys. It's one of my favorite features of Perfect Keyboard. But non the less, good job.

I may be crazy...

So I have haptic feedback when touching some things on by Tab, but when actually typing with the keyboard, I don't have any...I swaear I had it before.
I do have "vibrate on key press" checked in the keyboard settings too. I'm using Pershoot's Kernal with stock KME.

It only works with Samsung keyboard, so maybe you are using Android keyboard ?

Works on other keyboards too - eg SwiftKey Tablet.

this is probably the most annoying thing about the touchwiz update. I wonder if there's any way to change it..
Yah, any devs out there know of a way to turn haptic feedback on for the stock android keyboard...?

LG keyboard suggestion problem

Noticed a problem with the stock keyboard. Many times if I go to click one of the suggested words on top it puts a totally different word in the text field, usually the word isn't even one that was on the list.
Anyone else notice this?

Try to turn all settings off like the auto correct etc and then turn on each one after testing them one by one..see if that helps:silly:

I love the keyboard with the numbers always being on top, makes it so convenient and its just my favorite but. I don't see an option to let you backspace to erase the whole word with once click if you change your mind or just put the wrong word up, I can't stand having to hold the backspace all the way through it. So I'm using Swiftkey for now which is an awesome keyboard but doesn't have that dedicated number pad along the top but actually has many features that I don't care about and tons of themes too. I hope someone tells me that backspace setting is under my nose so I can use the LG one hehe. :silly:

Yea I thought I'd be able to place the number keys up top when I purchased swift key but it won't. I much rather prefer the numbers up top.

Yeah I love the top row as well, and it generally does a good job but does get stupid some times. I usually use the Google keyboard or Swype but have liked the lg one for now, just giving it a chance.

Did you ever find a solution to this? It's maddening. I tap the word I want and some completely random word that wasn't even close to what I tapped (and wasn't in the list of suggestions) shows up in the text box. I have searched and searched and you are the first person I've found who has had the same issue. I love everything else about the keyboard so I'd rather not switch to a different one!
Come on peeps, #1 app in the play store for months now. SwiftKey is the best keyboard out there. Stock is a bad keyboard.
