So this is yet another tweak that doesn't work on my iPad 2.

I basically went down the list in the essential app thread and downloaded what seemed interesting to me. Black keyboard works fine, and all my other Winterboard apps work as well. Why doesn't this work?

So which tweak are you referring to? Maybe I missed it, sorry.

Sorry, the tweak I'm having trouble with is the 5-row keyboard. I enabled it in Winterboard, re-sprung, and am still looking at the standard keyboard. Is there another setting somewhere to enable the 5-row?

Do you have splashtop installed?....I noticed this changed when I used the keybaoard while using the app.

Settings>general>keyboard>international keyboard then tick the 5row of your choice.

It works fine on iPad2. All the instructions to enable it are provided, just like most apps, if you look at the description of the product in Cydia.

I think many people are rushing to download & experiment with as many as possible....

AWESOME, thank you! Worked like a charm.

If only there was such an easy fix for PC Networking. Ugh.

Its a pain it doesn't work with ifile though. That's one of my essential apps so I wouldn't want to swap keyboards every time I go into it.

You don't have to swap.....it uses stock keyboard while within the ifile app only. It reverts back when you go into another app or ifile is closed. No issue really.

Yeah, you do have to turn off 5Row Keyboard before using iFile. Which is a pain. But, given the extra niceties of having the 5th row, it's what I'll live with...

So, Outlaw, your 5Row, turned on in Settings (and enabled in Winterboard), doesn't make your keyboard all wonky in iFile?

Awwww....Forgot the conflict between 5row and ifile. Guess that's why I uninstalled awhile ago...Since I do use ifile quite a bit.

Are NO arrows supported even in the switch/symbols screens? I would really recommend for these be be supported, along with a forward delete button.

My very first post so a BIG HELLO to everyone!

I got the 5 row installed together with the awesome black keys.

Everything looks just fantastic. However, the keyboard don't work in Cydia? The stock keyboard came up whenever I wanted to type in the search box in Cydia itself.

Tried killing the app and restarting. Also rebooted. Same thing. Cannot get it to work in Cydia.

Any help greatly appreciated!

It won't work in Cydia. Cydia disables all tweaks as a safety measure when you start it...
