No big deal, I can just install chompSMS and steel right?
I did, and I can't see any keyboards. Is there some option I am missing? Is it possible this rogers version of the phone blocks all soft keyboards in apps?
chomp I just dont see anything other than the flashing cursor for me to type in.
steel loads to a black page with this 3/4 circle inside a square in the bottom right corner of the screen. I can type in to google using my physical keyboard, but then this black transparent overlay covers the page and the 3/4 circle thing is still there.
can anyone confirm that I don't have to do anything special to view the keyboards in these apps? If rogers has somehow gimped this i will be mighty angry... and I guess next question is if anyone knows if it's safe for me to switch to the US cupcake... but that's another topic.  |
That is odd considering I just flashed this ROM to my US G1 and I have the HTC soft keyboard. hmmmm I bet this has more to do with the person who produced it... Haykuro
So, If you want Im sure you can flash the same rom and we all well and good, it would take some effort tho and im not sure if you have to have root access or not.
As far as Steel goes, I had the same issue when I went to cupcake, its not really that compatible with cupcake so your most likely not going to want to use it.
I would think you can use the US cupcake, you may have to change your APN so your network can still talk to the Rogers Network...thats all I got man, hope it helps some.
