SMART KEYBOARD PRO - keyboard layout on right side

[vladeoff]

it did auto-update..thanks.. i like the popups in zero..is there any chance to modify some buttons on the right? like changing the characters to the user's need?

Sorry for the people who like these changes, but I had to revert everything in 4.1.2 as I got a lot of complaints about that. I'll have to find a way to make this optional, but it's not so easy.

[vladeoff]

what do you mean of "revert everything"? please share here first before i get the update.. what changes did you make in 4.1.2?

[cyril]

The apostrophe is back to the '1' key, and there are no more popups in the T9 English layout. I hate doing that, but these changes were not popular at all.

[vladeoff]

please consider my request as I always use text messaging as my way of communicating. It helps me a lot having characters in 1 numkey. I wish to try the 4.1.2, but if i do this update, i'll be loosing the 4.1.1 and i don't know where the downloaded file is located if i do an update from the android market. could you at least send or share me the 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 apk's? anyway, i admire your effort in doing updates and providing us customers the best support..

hi again..

i've read some the comments on the other discussion board, and found some very useful from ver 4.1.1 which, (maybe) they haven't seen the benefit of it.. I'll begin to make a lists..

1. Sending e-mails, facebook login, facebook friends tagging, and some quick replacement for words like "at", "and", "@u";

-imho, @ sign is very useful if it's included in the T9 main.. rather than pressing the "?123" button and select the @ sign and press the "ABC" button again and continue to login, tagging, and continue to make quick replacement for words given above.

2. Numkey 1 having 'apostrophe';

-again imho, it's good to remain the 'apostrophe' character, but if the user has dictionary, it will be easy to use the suggested words, rather than to complete typing the word like "foot", "don't", because I find it very easy and i also like the behavior that it automatically predicts words with apostrophe.

-however, if the "T9" (uses dictionary) is disabled and the user still uses the T9 layout, a user like me will save "press events" if the @ sign, _ underscore characters are available on the Numkey 1. Example display in numkey 1 [`@_] or long press Numkey 1 [`] (only) to show popups with [1@_].

3. Other characters reverted to previous layout;
-it's ok with me as I review them thoroughly.

Overall, the update 4.1.2 is best for users with T9 active.

Wat abt if u use ds kind of msg or txt @ur fone? (T9 disabled)
What about if you use this kind of message or text at your phone? (T9 enabled)

Login: myuser@site.com (T9 active)
698737
(press ?123, press @, press ?123)
7483.266

Login: myuser@site.com (T9 inactive)
myuser
(just long press numkey 1 or 0)
site.com

please have some reviews on it.

I'm sharing my ideas because I care and support the developer.

(EDIT) After the update from market, I compare the 4.1.2 and 4.1.1
