Gboard - Lefties - Manage Positions Of Buttons (Spacebar mainly)

Hello all,

I use my left thumb to hit the spacebar. The emjoi button is on the left side of the spacebar and I ALWAYS hit that stupid emoji button instead of the spacebar.

iPhone you can manage your keyboard and move buttons around. Gboard you cannot. I do not want to use the 'one hand' because the letters are then too small. All I want to do is move the emjoi button to the other side of the spacebar and the spacebar over. I also tried hiding the emjoi button in the options but then it just turns that button to a comma.

I tried developer options, RTL but that doesn't change the Gboard, but it changes other stuff.

Any suggestions?

Fail to install chrome and other apps

Found the solution on rmn2.

Those two entries need to be inserted into build.prop file:
dalvik.vm.image-dex2oat-filter=speed
dalvik.vm.dex2oat-filter=interpret-only

Hopefully someone skilled enough (from XDA or Xiaomi/MIUI) will look further into that and try to fix dex2oat so we wouldn't need to disable AOT.

Maybe somebody rooted can try it.

host name

Welcome to Android Forums, 9793038233pal1234!
Host name of my phone
If you're asking how to find your phone's hostname, this used to work in a terminal:

Code:
getprop net.hostname

but when I just tried it, it didn't work.

I think there's an entry somewhere in System Settings, but a quick glance through mine didn't find it.

Just wondering, why do you need your phone's hostname?

What is the best 16gb android phone that I can custom rom?

It's rare for someone to want to buy a phone with a custom rom already installed. That's a security risk.

Here's the title of the thread which suggests he wants to install the rom himself...
"What is the best 16gb android phone that I can custom rom?"

After talking to him in the thread he never suggested he wanted a rom pre-installed. Hope this clears things up.



Thank you

Your explanation is valid and your manner is
courteous and professional.

I keep getting a mouse cursor appear on my screen.

I the same problem. A black mouse cursor which frantically moved around on the center of the screen, with a tiny blue circle around it.

My phone is rooted, so WTF I thought, I couldn't be hacked?

But disabling the GPS fixed it. I think the problem arose when I updated snapchat on my old M8.

Alas!
The frantic mouse cursor is back! Disabling GPS didn't work after all. What to do then?
