Hi Martin, You seem to have achieved what I have been trying to do. I am working on a sample input method "MyIME" and I have not been able to get the input method pop-up menu to display my "My IME" as one of the available options. Can you please shed some light on how got this working?
I have submitted my post "How to get android to show my IME in the input method pop-up menu?" where I have mentioned the 3 approaches I have taken that has not worked so far. (http://groups.google.com/group/ android-platform/browse_thread/thread/9afe1c301df3e35?hl=en) Your inputs and answers will be very much appreciated.
