I'm still trying to figure out how to set the default color skin in the EXT so that it's not the gray and blue one when I flash. I want the black one. I'll let you know if I figure it out.
Thanks for the info, guys! I'll just live without the ability to change between the HTC SIPs in order to avoid the weird biotouch issues. It's not a big deal! As for FingerKeyboard, I managed to configure it by editing the skins files in \Windows\Skins (specifically skins-01-global.txt, if anyone is interested) and also the registry entries to enable text word suggestion/change the skin.

PMDColeslaw: To change the default FingerKeyboard skin color, use a text editor to open the app.reg file in the FingerKeyboard EXT folder. Look for the following two lines:
"skin-00-sheme-blackgray.txt"=dword:00000000
"skin-00-sheme-grayblue.txt"=dword:00000001

Replace them with the following to enable the black/gray skin:
"skin-00-sheme-blackgray.txt"=dword:00000001
"skin-00-sheme-grayblue.txt"=dword:00000000

You can also use a registry editor on your device to edit those same entries in "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\FingerKeyb\SkinFil es", which would change the skin without the need to reflash.
