Hey emoney thanks for your hard work,

Just wanted to let you know that I upgraded from the 8/16 version to the 8/18 version using the commands you posted and it worked great. I did need a reboot before the updated keyboard showed up though, it was still showing the old one. So people not getting anything, reboot your pres.

Second, the orange button and the backspace key do not work for me. Everything else is working great.

Thanks!

The orange button doesn't work for me, unfortunately. Backspace works.

I am working on applying the update and all I keep getting is error messages like this one. "The topmost patch /opt/src/patches/more_icons_per_row. patch needs to be refreshed first." How do I go about doing this.

My keyboard isn't showing up with the Palm physical keyboard skin. It still has the white one with red lettering.

Should we be able to get the keyboard that looks like the physical one or has that patch not been released yet.

No offence I have applied every other patch available and done every single hack thus far and was modifying the code using vi since almost literally the day I got my pre (launch Day). There is something wrong w / this patch because when i do this nothing happens. Every other patch works fine just no on screen keyboard.

I reboot after any and all root sessions!

What is the output of:

[code]
grep black_boxy /usr/palm/frameworks/mojo/builtins/palmInitFramework191_15.js
[/code]

root@castle:/# grep black_boxy /usr/palm/frameworks/mojo/builtins/palmInitFramew
ork191_15.js
this.theme="black_boxy";

I have it installed, there is nothing wrong with the patch. It is good. I did notice from using it all day today that the backspace button only works on some programs and web pages but not in others. It works fine in text, and in the url box, but not on all the actual webpage text boxes.It doesnt work for me on facebook or yahoo so far. just sliding you some more input on the bugs.Look for your donation, Keep us updated on new developments please.

I dislike the theme. There Is no feedback so I have no idea what key I pressed or if I even pressed one. I would like to see more options for it too.

New patch is out!



  • Increased width of keyboard to span entire screen
  • Added orange-key functionality
  • Made keyboard draggable after tapping blank key
  • Added haptic feedback



Press one of the BLANK keys on the bottom corners to enable dragging, and then drag the keyboard to wherever you want it!

what is the process for getting the updated patch?
Developer: egaudet
at: 09:05 PM 08/18/2009
[code]
cd /opt/src/modifications/
git pull
sh /opt/src/modifications/install add-onscreen-keyboard.patch
[/code]

And then, only if you haven't previously installed the keyboard themes...

[code]
sh /opt/src/modifications/frameworks/install_theme
[/code]

yeah, i just got it to work, for some reason i always have some issues installing the patch but after a few delete, imports, pops and pushes i finally got it.
its great that it fits the whole screen now it honestly makes it much more accurate.
although remix's theme is very nice, i think it would be better if it was transparent like when you presss the symbol.
also, the enlarging key as you hit it is a nice touch and helps.
however, im not a huge fan of the haptic feedback... is there a way to turn it off?

thanks, and keep up the hard work!
