Does PCMkeyboard still work? Anyone who can create a big button keyboard would be nice, big as iphone, since the screen is big I could accomodate more
space then the normal touch.
TouchPal v3.0 FTW! NOT v3.5! (at least for now) v3.5 sucks balls. I'm using v3.0 it's working out pretty good on the kaiser and the elf. It'll work better on the diamond.
Touchpal 3.5!
i use the stock Phone Pad keboard
a lot better than the one on the Magician extended ROM, i must say

Hi I'm a little disappointed with the keyboard on the HD even with Gsen the keys are quite small and I find myself having to use my nails.
I did a little googling and found PCM Keyboard which does what the iPhone does and highlights the key before you press it.
Unfortunately it doesn't seem to work on the HD - I was wondering if anyone has got this to work or found a similar program?
Probably you just need the correct skin, try there http://pocketcm.com/phorum/read.php?14,10615
Try this SPB Full Screen Keyboard.

This works perfectly and increases the keyboard size to fit the whole screen and give iphone like feedback on which key you are hitting - you are a legend!

Dear JetMouse,is it possible for you to upload an image of the keyboard working on your device?
Thanks In advance for your help
Has anyone managed to get the Greek layout to work properly. I cannot get Greek letters to show on the keyboard.
@stt57
Can you please post a picture of the HD while writing in landscape with the PCM Keyboard to see what is left of the screen?

Of course it works but you need a WVGA skin

Just wanted to let you know that the new .23 version has a lot more, much nicer features that you can use.
I have also developed a theme for .23 for the HD. It can be found in the blackstone themes subforum, as well as on pocketcm.com
[Update May 10 2010:]
Huge thanks to Soul72 for adding other language support to MaxKey:
- English
- Italian
- German
- Norwegian
- Hungarian
Just follow the instructions below, but download the file below ending in "multilanguage." The other version just has English.
[Original Post:]
Ready for a screen keyboard that's easier to type on? This is a reconfiguration of the fabulous FingerKeyboard 2.1, so all respect to Exidler and Rozenthal. I have maximized the size of the keys as much as possible, focusing on keeping the edge keys further in given that protective cases may make these inaccessible. I also made the symbol keys much more standard (no longer 10 types of smiley faces!!! ) Moving the p and q up is a bit unorthodox, but I think you'll be pleased with the result.
PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING BEFORE INSTALLING:
- You must have FingerKeyboard 2.1 installed for this to work
- FingerKeyboard must be installed on your device, NOT on the card
- The file that does not say "multilanguage" is is only for ENGLISH
- You can close MaxKey by pressing and holding the spacebar
- The attached cab also installs the X1 SoftTouch tweak to maximize your screens responsiveness, for best keyboard performance
- At the moment, uninstalling this requires a few steps that are relatively simple:
- - - Uninstall "Paco SoftTouch MaxKey 0.1" under Settings/System/Remove Programs
- - - Rename /Program Files/FingerKeyb/skin-02-wvga-port-01-eng-bak.txt to skin-02-wvga-port-01-eng.txt
- - - Move skin-02-wvga-port-01-eng.txt to /Program Files/FingerKeyb/Skins
- - - Next time you RE-select FingerKeyb in the SIP selector, the regular key configuration should be back
Install directions:
1. Install FingerKeyboard 2.1 to your device (not card!)
2. Download and install the SoftTouch MaxKey cab that is attached at the bottom of this post
3. Open the SIP selector which is the tiny triangle to the right of the keyboard selector in the middle of the bottom menu bar
4. Select FingerKeyb, and the MaxKey keyboard configuration should appear
5. To unistall, see above
If there is interest in this, I can try to keep developing for other languages and to make improvements based on suggestions. Donations would be highly appreciated.

ChangeLog:
0.1 - First release
0.2 - Fixed the " and ? keys; slight tweak to symbols layout

Sorry, what do you mean by "compact qwerty?" Do you mean fewer rows of keys, like 4 rows instead of 5?
finger keyboard does not support compact qwerty(yet at least)
thats great ring-bearer....i ll give it a shot
btw from where u got that cool battery icon on top?
Compact qwerty would be nice, but I think it would probably conflict with the FingerKeyboard2 keymap, since a compact qwerty only has 12 buttons.
If you don't know how a compact qwerty looks like, take a look at an old mobile phone without touch screen or hardware keyboard and notice that the function of every key carries a number of letters, that you get by pressing various numbers of times. For example; I want to write "C". I press the number 2 three times, and the C appears.
I think it would be possible for someone to make a compact qwerty, since there is one in the new Touch Pro 2's and Diamond 2's. Also, if you look at the Xperia default dialer (or any dialer for that matter), there are 3 to 4 letters on every key - there's your ready made compact qwerty. Of course I don't know anything about making this myself, I'm just looking at the posibilities of someone making it.

Hope you like it! I do think it has made a moderate difference in ease of text entry.
The great set of icons is from one of gtrabs' collections. I think it's the "X Series"
Spanish version?
Thanks, thanks, thanks!!! Finally keyboard that suites me...
p.s. key for ? doesn't work...

If you mean a keyboard where there are two letters on each key, there is a Touch IT compact qwerty that I believe Itje has made available.

Good pickup - thanks a lot. I have uploaded a fixed version to the first post:
SoftTouch_MaxKey_0.2
Ah, looks like I was confused about the names - what I meant before was ''Phone Keypad'' and you can get this with EzInput so nevermind
Anyways, is it possible to get swedish? The only difference is that long press on J gets an Å, long press K gets you an Ä and L gets you Ö. That would be great!
this is most amazing keypad out there!
keypad vey responsive!
can i request something?
is it possible to remove the page up down etc.
on "EN" coz' you know in xperia they have some sort of a mouse to scroll
so that there will be more space for a key! very usefull if there will more space to press a single key.
and some character in the third row and so fort have minimal spacing
maybe it can help if you can try to edit this?
but you know this proram works well for me is just maybe you can do
enhance it for x1 users? thank you in advance!!! nice work

Yeah, I can try to do something like that. I also want to work on the placement of the 'enter' and 'backspace' keys because they aren't optimal right now. But the main problem for me was the size of the qwerty keys, and those are now as big as they can get without inventing a whole new layout. But I agree that those directional buttons are not highly needed. I also still want to develop for the other languages people requested, but it may be a couple of months because real life is crazy busy for a while.
I could also try to make a SIP much more tailored to the X1 from the ground up. My C++ skills aren't great though but if anyone wants to PM me the 'dvoraksip.sln' code that comes with the Windows Mobile Version 5.0 SDK, I could probably modify that. I just don't have the SDK or the example code that comes with it. Anyone?
Thnx for the keyboard.. Its just made my XPERIA perfect!
But I have a question.. When I open the keyboard on my phone, the bottom bar dissappears.. Is this something you programmed it to do, to maybe give larger screen above the keyboard, or it something wrong with my config?
This layout isn't very nice. I prefer a normal qwerty layout.

Hey, thanks for the feedback. To answer your question:
No, I didn't program that feature in. That is a changeable feature of FingerKeyboard. Just go to programs/fingerkeyboard/options then change Portrait from "Hide bar" to "Show bar."
You'll be all set!
first tried the one by 2manyphones:
[forum.xda-developers.com]
and it was NEARLY perfect for me.
I thought I could simply add a couple of keys like the British Pound sign and an apostrophe above the comma, a few smilies above the full stop...done I thought...
Then I went to an iPhone forum and saw a nice design so I spent the rest of the afternoon redoing the graphics completely.
Hope you like it, It's my first one!
