I have confirmed this as WORKING on the Moto Droid, and this should also work with other phones as well

Confirmed working on:
CM6 Nightlies/Tests (inc)
jdfroyo v1.9 (inc)
Skyraider 2.? (inc)
8/1 froyo leak (inc)
aiccucs 4.2 (inc)

CM6 (evo)

Bugless Beast 4 (moto droid)
Ultimate Droid Extreme Froyo 6.00 (moto droid?)

CM6 (nexus 1)
modaco r21 (nexus 1)

DeFrost 2.6a (desire)


Voice input works too!

EASY METHOD:
flash this from your recovery or from rom manager:
[Only registered and activated users can see links]

OLD METHOD:
get both of these files:
apk:
&amp fixed 3:[Only registered and activated users can see links]

(finally got all the &amp's fixed in one apk )
if you had the old version with the &amp problem, be sure to switch to a different keyboard, then remove the old one before pushing the new one over, otherwise you will get fc's like crazy!

lib:
(you may not need this, but it shouldnt hurt anything (backup instructions below) and if the keyboard doesnt work, then definitely try pushing it)
[Only registered and activated users can see links]
some have reported that for some reason or another this file downloads as a .txt (although it comes as a .so for me all the time) make sure you rename it, if need be, to libjni_latinime.so before going any further

you will need adb for this method (others have done it without a computer)

youll either want to be in recovery, with /system mounted, or remount it read-only while the phone is up (need s-off for this, thanks unrevoked!)

back up the files on your phone first:

Code:

adb shell cp /system/app/LatinIME.apk /system/app/LatinIME.apk.bak
adb shell cp /system/lib/libjni_latinime.so /system/lib/libjni_latinime.so.bak

then push the two downloaded files to your phone:

Code:

adb push d2keyboard-signed-ampfix3.apk /system/app/LatinIME.apk
adb push libjni_latinime.so /system/lib/libjni_latinime.so

choose your input method like always, and enjoy the multi-touch keyboard on froyo....

Thanx to invisiblek for his hard work
