[how-to] Get back standard Android Keyboard
This keyboard is very similar to the original. Should work for you, and is available for free in the Android Market.

Hello.
I have always thought that virtual keyboard on Android was too slow/sluggish. I have tried keyboard from stock 1.5, HERO & 1.6. They all feel same. slow/sluggish.
I was reading this blog...
http://ignorethecode.net/blog/2009/08/07/virtual-keyboards-on-iphone-and-android/
and it is so true.
Now I am wondering if there is any fix? solution? to get it perform better with faster responsiveness?
Thank you.
use "better keyboard" from the market. you won't be disappointed. plus all the skins to choose from is a big plus.
I thought better keyboard was just a skinning ?
But is it actually a different keyboard?
Better Keyboard is a different keyboard app, just like HTC is different. There are a lot of skins available for Better Keyboard app.
There is a free keyboard called softkeyboard that you can try as well.

Just lost your chance at a free touchpal download, but it is my favorite by far.

Hi.
Anyone able to get the HTC IME.apk to install to the xtarantula build? I tried to install it but i am getting the error that i don't have an htc device lol....
...anyone have a workable apk that will install??
thanks in advance
btw, the HTC keyboard i'm referring to is similar to the winmo hd2 keyboard, the one with the directional arrows
Might not be the answer you are looking for but I have to say that the Kb u want is laggy and somehow lacking responsiveness. there are other options you could try like Smart Keyboard Pro. It has themes, which I find to be very sense-like.
About the Kb u want, it might be due to the senseless build.
You should be able to find what you want from this thread, sans the directional arrows (I've been looking for that version myself):

just make sure to install the keyboard & clicker intended for your version of Android.

Thanks. I already was able to install the htc without the directional arrows. kinda missing the arrows though
i have the apk of the kb with arrows as well but wouldn't install as it is signed i guess.... if you come across another apk and it installs please let me know.
thanks!!
I am currently using the 2.1 leak which came out yesterday. Though it's not perfect and there are minor problems here and there, the main problem is the keyboard and for me it's not usable and I suffer everytime I have to use it!
Several others also agreed with me the new keyboard is wack, unresponsive and is very slow.
Is there any way somebody can get the original stock keyboard from the original 1.6 release and upload it somewhere so I could replace it with the current one?
I really love the old keyboard and was used to it, really loved the fact it also has a numpad which makes logging into ebay/hotmail far easier & quicker.
Lastly, should someone be kind enough guide me through replacing the NEW keyboard with the old one, as in WHERE to put the file in the streak, which folder.
Thanks in advance
It wont run on 2.1.
It just crashes.

Dam, you tried? I hope in the final release it will not crash wehn tried.
I cannot stand the current keyboard.
I am running a 1.6 rom off of theunlockr.com, and I HATE the keyboard it has on it.
How do I go back to the stock android keyboard?
And maps won't upgrade to the one that has navigation, it says update unsucessful.
Thanks guys
Or a keyboard resembeling an iphone keyboard.
well i dont know about how to get the stock keyboard but what i do know is there are android market alternatives such as better keyboard and smart keyboard pro not sure if this is good enough for you because you did say stock keyboard but hey just trying to help
Smart Keyboard Pro's default keyboard skin is the same as the iPhone, definitely worth the purchase.
guys Im new here and I'd like to ask for help about the android keyboard.
I recently updated my phone for 2.1 to 2.2 froyo. mod version is Open Swift 4.4/ Cyanogenmod 6.1.2. kernel is 2.6.29
Can anyone here teach me how to install the original LG T9 keypad. cause even when the phone is vertical i still have the full qwerty android keyboard. My thumb is to big for a small keyboard like that and the t9 keypad works great for me.
