I am using SPB full screen Version 4.0.0 Build 2585 and it is just fine. It also has elegant BLACK skin.

Andrewk21 do you find spb fullscreen keyboard lags a bit? I had to uninstall it as it could not keep up with my key presses and would sometimes freeze for 3 seconds before i could input the next character.

There's a full screen keyboard when you use Opera in Landscape mode.
Not sure if this is utilised in other apps

It does sometimes, but not too often. Obviously, SPT is only a virtual keyboard and therefore is ‘not perfect’. However, with a bit of practice it becomes friendlier, gets used to you. Try playing a bit with J.S. Advanced Configuration Tool 3.3, Touch Flow, finger pressure, etc. Should do the trick. Cheers.

Amazing gingerbread keyboard for x8

I found an amazing gingerbread keyboard, and it works with the x8, you have to download the 2.1 version.

Nothing special for me...

Some screenshots would be nice.
Edit: Wow, it's actually pretty decent. If you can get past the fact the 'vibrate on press' doesn't work. I love that feature. Anyway, it's VERY responsive and deals with accidental presses very well. It has very cool sounds to go with it (tappity tap...) In terms of looks, it's average.

I say give it a try!

I still love the HTC IME Keyboard..

Ooohh, you can get that skin for Smart Keyboard.
Edit: I changed my mind about this keyboard, the keys aren't big enough. It is a pain.

Have tried it.

I'm staying with the moded HTC_IME from Eminence v1.2

I'm staying with its default keypad. I prefer the multi-tap set-up as I am having difficulty pressing the right key on the querty keyboard.

Stock Keyboard: Long Press for Numbers

I'm sure i'm missing something here..
I can't get my Nexus 7 stock keyboard (stock OTA 4.1.1) to longpress the top row and get numbers... eg: Longpress 'Q' to get '1'.
It doesn't show the small numbers on top of the keys either.
Have tried changing some setting, I also tried changing keyboard language but nothing :/
My nexus S is updated with Jellybean (stock OTA 4.1) and it does work.
Anyone got the same issue?

The stock keyboard does not have that ability. You will need to use another keyboard. Most do including Swype etc...

thanks for quick reply
i still don't understand why the tablet stock keyboard does not have that functionality... is there any specific reason why they would take that option off?

It just doesnt.
Not sure who would answer that or provide you with an answer you would accept... Just get another keyboard, there are many to choose from.

This one is for you

Actually the standard keyboard has this feature, but only in the 360px layout (thats why it works on your Nexus S). In tablet layouts (600px, 768px) the number shortcuts are available in English, but not in other languages (e.g. German).
This is somewhere in the middle between a bug and sloppy design on Googles behalf.

4.2 Keyboard
Now if someone can fix the 4.2 Keyboard to work with long press for numbers I'd be really happy. Swype Keyboard sucks compared to the new 4.2 keyboard.

Bump... Seems I can't get the old fix to work... and I liked it so much! Definitely a fail on Google's behalf.

Found this after starting my own thread, sigh. I see that the stock keyboard in the CM Roms for the fire have this but not the Nexus 7. Is this because the two devices are on either side of the resolution threshold?

This is so disappointing. The keyboard is one of my most favorite things about my galaxy nexus. All inclusive, from the gesture typing to the long-press for numbers. To me, it's flawless. But now that I've got a Nexus 7, and I have to hit another button just to switch between alpha to numeric? It's like using an iphone! Disturbing!
So this is a bump. Seeking out other threads and solutions. I mean, I could install another keyboard, but.....no. The 4.2.x keyboard experience is just too fantastic without this flaw.

Don't know if this trick is known to everyone already but you can actually long press a key for a number. Just long press and hold the number key "?123" then slide through the number you like then let go and voila you have a number and you'll be back to letters again - similar to an iphone keyboard in a way

The MoDaCo ROM has a patched keyboard with the longpress enabled.

Oops, I misread what you were saying. Nice tip, actually. I just wish it worked the way I previously expected, because I'm not a fan of your (valid) method.
Didn't know that about the iphone keyboard either. Now my work iphone is moderately less unpleasant.
Thanks.

S-Pen Question

I am liking the S-Pen but I have a few questions....
I get this screen and no matter what I write or enter it never goes anywhere

}
I can get to this screen and it works really well except for spaces between words are not picked up unless I write out several at a time. If I pause and one word gets entered there is no space put between the next word unless I use the button at the top. Is there a S-Pen shortcut to enter a space?
Scribbled with my S-Pen

Never having a Samsung device is this what I am seeing in my first screenshot?
Also I found if I use the pen and draw a quick down line between the words where I want a space it will pop one in there.
Scribbled with my S-Pen

I found that after turning on "direct pen input" under Settings> Controls >S-Pen, that I was able to start using the keyboard pen pad.
Might want to give that a shot

There's an "Auto spacing" toggle in the Samsung Keyboard settings. Might do the trick?

I think you're missing the keyboard update from last week or so:

New firmware, AND4

So i was dinking around on sammobile, saw the latest firmware for the p900, problem is, its only a china firmware, i said.. "What the hell..." and went ahead and installed it on my US p900.
Works like a champ! Its all in english, im not sure if thats because i didnt wipe before i odin'd it. But reguardless, im up and running with it.
I had to change the text prediction to english. Everything i was typing was english, but the prediction suggestions were all chinese. But i just changed that in the keyboard settings.
In the stock browser, if you search from address bar, it returns results from some chinese search engine. It looks like you cant change it. Oh well, i use chrome and opera anyway.
The keyboard has some new features that i really like. Options for clipboard, handwriting, mic.. Etc are right on top, can turn prediction on and off with a toggle above tab..

So the alternate symbols are gone on the new keyboard? I'm not sure if i'd like that. I guess the common ones are there but some basic math symbols and brackets are missing in addition to other punctionation marks. Guess thats what the Sym button will have to be used for (currently don't use it much with the older keyboard).

There is an xposed module to activate long press symbols if you're rooted. Fyi

I ended up going back to an XAR firmware . I had no Google services. Apparently China uses their own services for mail, maps, search... Etc.

Thanks, yes fully aware of that but the discussion was on the new keyboard layout being described above so I was asking relative to that discussion. Had he still been using that firmware and the option not be in there to turn it on I was going to suggest next to try xposed and that alt keyboard symbol module.

I know from messing with missing keyboard symbols, both the "language" and handwriting recognition "language" need to be "English US". If one is UK, symbols would disappear. This was reported by many when I posted looking for my symbols. Just fyi. Wonder if that rom had the mag UX that US users didn't get.
