Description: This patch allows to configure the height of keyboard rows, and the vertical position of the whole keyboard.
Using the keyboard on phones with a “long” display like the Xperia 10 can be quite uncomfortable. This patch allows you to move the entire keyboard higher up on the screen to make it easier accessible without having to lose grip.

Description: This patch reduces the startup time of the settings app, which is painfully slow without the patch.
The lag is not actually fixed but rather delayed and split up. This doesn't make the app more beautiful but it makes it much less annoying to open it.

Description: Improve handling of special characters with XT9 (predictive text input). The patch adds special rules for braces, typographical quotation marks, colons, ellipsis ("..."), etc. Some extra rules are added for nuances of the French and German grammar rules.
The stock XT9's handling of special characters leaves quite a lot to be wished for. This patch tries to improve it a little bit but it is still far from perfect. For example, I didn't find a way (yet?) to automatically add closing braces and place the cursor in between.
