phonepad mapping to physical keypad on stealth

Is there any way to map the phonepad (on screen) to the physical keypad on the atom stealth like the way the ezitext is mapped to the physical keypad?
thanks

I am interested in this as well, for example HTC IntelliPad is much more better than eZiText (no bug in Multitap, T9 support) and with more dictionaries (including czech). But unfortunately now it works only when tapping on the touchscreen :-/

Precisely why it's called Intellipad... It's such a waste if Intellipad can't be hardwired to Stealth's physical keypad... ;P

here's one that can help
try this out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=403736
just a note, this app has a limitation of only 4 characters per key, also it is intended for hebrew input, so you might need to change the layout.xml file
pls disregard, i got your question wrong.. lol

Just me or is the keyboard too small ?

Hi Guys,
Got myself a magic a few days ago, love it to bits but really struggling with the OSK.. the keys are just too small to type quickly/easily.
Is it just me and my big hands ? lol
Are there any alternatives for OSK out there ? (maybe like the phonepad style that comes in HTC EZInput for WinMo?)

Not sure how the keyboard could be much bigger than it already is. The screen is 3.2 inches across (diagonal) and that's all you have to work with. All that can be done is to make the buttons on the bottom row bigger (wider) by omitting the Shift and the Del button, but that would make the qwerty layout kinda funky.

Turn it on its side (landscape mode) -- the keyboard will be bigger that way than in portrait mode.

You can install the app "big keys" in the market and see how you like that. Or you can install the htc keyboard found in the Dream forums. HTC_Chime.apk is what you are looking for.

Thanks for the suggestions guys, I'll have a play with the HTC keyboard and see what it's like.

Does the Magic have the option of the T9 Dialpad keyboard? Or is it just a plain full QWERTY keyboard that auto-corrects?

I haven't seen a T9 option, but it's easy to turn the auto-correcting off, although it will still offer you suggestions, but won't mess with what you're writing.

...double post...

That reminds me, I must add "org" and "uk" to my dictionary so I don't keep entering my email address as [email protected]e

I do not know what video i was watching, but I saw that there was a dialer keyboard available on the HTC magic. Now, I do not know if it was a rooted phone (which it probably was) or if it was an application that was added to the phone. If I am correct, they were showing haykuro's work and it showed in the text input a dialer keyboard. If this is true, would one have to root their G2 phone for it to work? The thought of possibly bricking the phone, sort of...well...makes me feel uneasy lol.

[Q] Tiny Keyboard!

Hey everyone, the default Android keyboard is SOO small! Does anyone know how to make it larger? I like to use it in Portrait mode, because of the screen real estate that it gives me, but it's too low. I need it to be the size of the default Swype keyboard .
I type in both Spanish and English, and it's a big help to be able to change very quickly.
Any ideas? Or if you can't change the default keyboard size, would you recommend another one that's larger?
Thanks!

U cud try using smart keyboard pro...gives u the option of increasing key size...the option I currently use covers around 60%of the screen in landscape mode..and 50% in portrait mode..

Cool thanks. That fixed it

[Q] Arrows in Keyboard IME from Samsung

Hi guys!
I have a question about the SGS2.
On the latest version of my OLD HTC with rooted ROM Reflax it has arrows under the keyboard.
While the SGS2 doesn't have a trackball/pad, I would like to have a keyboard with arrows so I can go back/forward/up/down in my characters in my text.
Before the SGS2 I had the HTC Desire that one has a trackball/pad.
It would be awesome if someone know an app, or would develop one for me and other people!
(Sorry for my bad english grammer, Im not the best with it..)
Greetings,
RedFeather

AFAIK the stock keyboard doesn't have this option but I didn't use it long enough to discover it. Try 'Gingerbread Keyboard' on the matket by Steven Lin which is free or Perfect Keyboard which is paid but lives up to its name. Both have the required option if you swipe up in the space bar.
Regards.

Thanks, and i see this is placed in the wrong forum? How to replace it to Q&A? (New to XDA)
Someone else got an option?

Smart keyboard pro as the ability to put arrows on the keyboard.
Used it on my MIUI roms and worked great.
In Settings you enable or disable it and with a HTC skin it looks exactly the same.

hmm sounds nice.
I saw it in the market, it is paid. Whats the difference with the Trial version?
And else, do you have the pro version .apk for me? (A):$

Swype
The built-in swype keyboard has the ability to show arrow keys.
To get them you need to swipe from the swype-key (bottom left) to the "sym" key.

[Q] Is it possible to change keyboard in CM7??

Hi
Is it possible to change keyboard in CM7 to phone keypad ??
it is really difficult to send message with its default keyboard...
tnx

Yes of course you can,just download one from market then go into language and keyboard settings and enable it. Then bring your keyboard up and long press on text screen and change imput method to new keyboard.
Alternative is to remove latin.ime from system apps and replace with other keyboard.
Big buttons keyboard is quite good, used it for a while but stock is more responsive and the new ics keyboard posted in apps and themes thread is awsome.
