Hi guys I'm looking for a good Keyboard for my rooted/s-off Desire. i'm currently on insertcoin HD 2.0 A2SD rom.
Preferably a free Keyboard
Pls suggest.
Why don't you get the Stock HTC.IME keyboard? I think it's the best keyboard around, and I tried alot, Swiftkey, Betterkeyboard, gingerbread keyboard...
I tried a lot of keyboard, swiftkey, better keyboard, smart keyboard, gingerbread keyboard but the best for me is htc ime mod with theme.
HTC_IME_mod themed - best!

You can't beat Swype, as far as I know the beta is still open so you can get it for free.
I vote for swiftkey... not free but I prefer it to the HTC one
Swype, once you get the hang of it it works wonders, hunt and peck typing seems primitive now.
I'll go for the stock gingerbread keyboard.
I think it's very personal. Try the keyboards
htc ime mod with theme
Swiftkey is a good keyboard but hasn't t9 keyboard with HTC IME mod I can switch qwerty to T9 keyboard with a slide

Modded swype keyboard by Eskodroid.
Perfect for me.
now I don't use htc ime but I stumbled across a kitchen
Where you can make a themed one. Its from the nexus one
Forums but should work on the desire :

I always use the stock Gingerbread keyboard. You can find it in the market for free.

For me the best is Swiftkey, althought the stock HTC is also very good.
Slide it, not free but well worth the few quid.

Hope this helps

The creator is a DEV named Adbirdie, if you check the Desire Android Development section of the Desire forum, check for a ROM called StarBurst, browse through that thread, on that thread there is a link to all the HTC IME MOD keyboards. Don't forget to thank the DEV.

Not free but i love Swiftkey personally, think it is well worth the money.
Swype is good if you can get it.
Other than those i find the stock keyboard pretty good
Hi guys, great forum with some great tips.
Just got my xperia play and love it to bits.
Not sure if anyone else is experiencing this but I find the keyboard very inaccurate and slow to respond.
When I compare it to my previous Iphone and HTC desire it seems poor.
Any suggestions for tweeking or any options for downloading another keyboard.
Thanks in advance
Chris
Swype
Takes a bit of getting used to swyping but you can also just use it normally to type and its much more accurate than the stock keyboard
im having the same issues , i tried gingerbread keyboard lite which was much more accurate but i was a constant running process in the backgroung using around 30mb , i wish there was a way to edit the stock xperia play keyboard i.e button size height and load a custom user dictionary, yes there are other keyboards like smart, better or swype but really sony should update / fix the stock one.
anyone know if once youve installed a 3rd party keyboard can you safely remove the stock one if rooted and not encounter any problems ?.......
SwiftKey is better to use then the stock keyboard. It just takes a bit of time to get use to.

How's the consensus on HTC_IME keyboard?
I remember it was all the rage when the X10 was released but I haven't been annoyed with the stock keyboard (yet) to give it a try.

I personally hate the htc keyboard..I always used alternate keyboards when I had my HTC.
I use swiftkey, while a tad too busy for my taste, it works damn well once you set it up to your liking. The arrow keys make me not miss my trackpad, and the numberpad-style number page is awesome.
I started using one of the Iphone keyboards.
Find it much better though still not as good as my Iphone.
I just paid for number pad a t9 keyboard its fantastic

Use swype its only best ever.
Sent from my R800i using XDA App
yesss... swype is the best.. just installed it yesterday. very accurate and its free..
I just installed Swype and am using it for the first time. I am so impressed that I needed to make a post about it.
The thing is freaking amazing. Seriously good.
Anyone else using it at the mo?
Yep... It's installed out of the box on galaxy s series handsets, but I love it and can barely use a standard keypad anymore so I got the beta for my cm installation..

Used to use it on my Galaxy S but not a fan tbh, tried it on my play and still MUCH prefer Swiftkey X, Swiftkey X is easily the best Keyboard for Android
I don't see it in the market. I see SMS to swipe, Word Swide and Gem Swype.
is it any of these?
Nope, it's a program on public beta. It's preloaded in the Samsung Android phones. Here you can download it: http://swypeinc.com/ After downloading the installer you just have to follow the steps it tells you.
It's mighty awesome, enough that Sony is including a Swype-lookalike (T9) in the 2.3.4 update in October. You can find similar keyboards in the market like SlideIT keyboard.

Select Beta and follow instructions.
It is a pain in the arse to download, but trust me, well worth it.
Thanks Guys
I will do that tonight. I'll try the internal PSX emu also.
Not enough hours in a day when you have kids.
BTW Another Awesome thing is the Captain America live wallpaper. It is very cool.
Just got the app really good and easy to use thanks for the info

I am now of the opinion that all swipe-like keyboards are vastly superior by default after using Swype. The difference is as large as texting on the old numeric keypads versus typing on a qwerty keyboard.
Absolutely no way could I go back to a bog standard qwerty touchscreen keypad with no swipe feature !

Tried beta 1, then switched to swype and stayed with swype.
no idea why but it sometimes lags and the words aren't really accurate either.. adding a new word to the user dictionary is a PITA..
Swift key x, ftw
I was using swype but my beta version got over after a month :/

Hello fellas, I was wondering if I could get some feedback based on people's experience on which could be the best alternative keyboard for an x10?
I'm using the default one with wolfbreak 6.0s and it is laggy for ne most of the time.
All suggestions would be really appreciated, thanks in advance!

Swype beta rocks. Using it on WB 6.0. Doesn't seem to be many issues.

I like Swype and also swiftkey x
I use Swype Beta... And its working pretty well... The only thing, is when it is your first time using it, you are going to find it a bit difficult... But when you get used to it, you are going to type fast...
Ahhh I found out why the keyb was lagging! I just tried removing prediction and autocorrects and now this is blazing fast!
But anyway, I would like to try something new just to see how's better!

Im using the new sony ericsson 2.3.4 slide keyboard

Maybe I'll give SwiftkeyX another go, but I did try it on my X10 (had it free from an Amazon promotion) and found it not as good as Thumbs.
SwiftKey X is the shizz! Worth the money!

SwiftKey is the way to go atm, it is slick, smart and pretty much da bomb with predictions.
If you want cool looking bot for fast typing and serious writing keyboard go with Slide It

If you a laid back typer like me touchpal is an excellent option. I'm not a fan o QWERTY in portrait mode think that's the reason I stay from swift

I use TouchPal. Disable TouchPal curve and then you have swipe down symbols which is a stroke of genius.

I've been using Swype for the last two years, works like a charm!
I'm trying out the SwiftKey Flow Beta right now, seems even more intuitive, although there's a few tidbits I prefer in Swype.
I guess it all comes down to whether you prefer actual typing or swyping though.
I like Kii Keyboard. Much more settings. Support Swipe method input.
use voice engine
the best thiing is using skyvee app:laugh:
Swype
Swype is my favorite. I've tried several gesture keyboards and I find that swype cares the least about how I swype. I also love the "ctrl+c" and "ctrl+v" ability.
At this moment i think that Swiftkey Keyboard is the best choice.
For me the best of all is the swype.
If you're bilingual like me, check out Swype, fast switching with one touch, but don't install versions 1.4, they tend to be sluggish, 3.26.92.39062 is the way to go
As for swift key, doesn't really work well with two languages.

I am using swift with 3langs, German, Turkish and English and it is working well, I am using the same layout for all and have not to switch between the languages.
