Hey guys, I prefer the HTC IME over the stock 2.1 X10 keyboard anyday. But one thing that I wish the HTC IME had was the scrolling feature thats on the X10 keyboard.
Does anyone know if there is any other keyboard that has that feature. OR can anyone mod the HTC IME to have the scrolling feature ?
Thanks
Would love to know that too.

speaking of arrows, does anyone know if we can put the evo keyboard on the x10? Like is there a apk for that?

try it out. i like it a lot, the arrangement might be a lil awkward at first but i find it perfect now.
Installed cm6.2 and the keyboard is a bit too basic. Any suggestions on a better keyboard app? Swype if at all possible
Thanks

I use SwiftKey, which is wonderful. It does word prediction based on sentences, and in some cases it can finish your sentences for you, even before you start typing them. Even if you don't use that much, it has a great landscape keyboard layout that I prefer to Swype (space bar in the middle, not the right like Swype uses), and it's totally worth the purchase price in the market to me.
I'm not sure I'm ready for the swype stuff so I'm sticking with smart keyboard pro. love it
THIS is my reply in a thread that was created 6 hours before yours. Please search next time, answering the same question 3-4 times in the same days is getting old.
Well sorry. Some of us are on the go and xda app does not give search option to me.
Thanks to someone elses helpful reply I got on swype beta so i'm set.
Thank you

What do you guys recommended for a keyboard? Which is the best?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I think it's your job to chose the best keyboard, but I'll tell you my opinion. I use the stock keyboard, but my prefered one is the gingerbread keyboard (it works for me for a few days and after that it FC all the time). If you would like to try some alternative input method, you should try Swype (I don't know if it's available for download now). First a bit hard to use, but if you learn to use it it can be faster then the stock

I use better keyboard. There is a free trial version (no skins). I got the full version because I get bored easily and constantly switch skins. There are plenty on the Market to download.
I use Smart Keyboard Pro (costs money ) and the Gingerbread Keyboard is great... If you look around you'll also find the droid x multi-touch keyboard which is also good.
Thanks guys. Now im using droid x keyboard, its pretty good.

I vote for Ultra keyboard... it's like swype but with more customization options.

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!
