[Q] gingerbread update missing GB keyboard? - Droid X General

Am I missing something or did the new update not include the GB keyboard. Im running gingerbread rooted and I checked the settings, it's not there.
would the gingerbread keyboard apk for 2.2 work with the new update? if not is there any way right now to get the GB keyboard?

The ota keyboard is the GB keyboard. It is just themed white.

I don't like some of the word prediction changes they made to it. Like after I type a word and I want to use the suggestion bar to press a punctuation mark and instead it shows a random word it thinks I might want instead of punctuation options.

And yes the GNITE Keyboard you installed on 2.2 will work just fine. Im using it now.

[Q] New here, can't get a keyboard working

I'm running Cyanogen 2.2 and am trying to install the HTC Ime Keyboard - I'm able to change the "input method" to it but then when i click anywhere to type the keyboard won't open. Help!
The only one I could get to work was the 1.5 version which is without voice input.

new swype sucks

is it possible to use the old swype on the s2?
I hate the layout, they added in that dam language button that takes up spacebar room, so I always misclick.. and if I ever hit it it changes my keyboard to spanish, plus the comma is where the spacebar used to be.. worse of all you can't double click to highlight a word, my swype speed is crippled.. so is it possible to get the old swype on here?

You should be able to. At least you need to be rooted and signed up for the swype beta program. Using titanium backup you can uninstall the swype on the phone. Then you can proceed to install the swype beta installer on your phone to get the latest swype beta on there.
I too am not really happy with the keyboard options on the SGS II out of the box. I pulled the LatinIME.apk (aka stock gingerbread keyboard) from cyanogen mod to get my stock android keyboard back since the samsung one made the message screen jump around like a kid on a sugar high .
try Swift Key for me the best keyboard for fast writing
okay ill try the swype beta, its different than the swype we have now?

This version of Swype is WAYYY better than the stock one that came with the phone.
Well the stock is outdated

My only complaint with swype (which is a very small complaint) is i wish there were downloadable themes like go keyboard ect.

Thanks for the update. Using it now and all is great. Love swype. Now they just need to make a tablet version, i.e. one that has split keys....Not sure how that would work with swype....hmm

I got the Swype notification update the other day on two phones but the download stayed on 0% the whole time even with a solid signal.
I haven't been prompted since for an update, can someone post the version number of the latest update so I can compare?

Awesome keyboard, love Swyping

I tried it out with build 16 of the branch that will be CM9 installed... worked quite well, just didnt' care of the little keyboard that comes up in the notification area. Didn't have a chance to research what it was about as I had to swap back to an old rom for a while. But I definitely make sure I install swype on any rom I install.

Yeah, whenever I get a notification, I'm never able to actually update through the preferences.
Like the other person said, uninstalling and going through Swype Installer again always works.
DragonGO!
I just love SWYPE, it's something iPhone don't have and they envy Android users. "Hey, how can you text so fast". I said, "chicken plucking is soooo typewriter days"
Anyone tryout DragonGO!, it's not that bad of an Apps.
Swype work for me in ICS Passion V13 without any problem, the bad think is the process of installing this new version, is very tedious.
anyway, another thing i could seen is that swype can retrieve any data swiped in your phone, says, password, credit card number, and other data. I cannot afford that.
I use my regular Keyboard. Swype is a very good keyboard!
