[ICS] Default Keyboard disappeared - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok I just installed WP7 Gingerbread keyboard from the market and after that I dont have any other input method available than "WP7 Gingerbread Keyboard" and "Google Voice Input" .
I used to have a fine ICS default keyboard.
I am using Epsylon's CM9 btw. After uninstalling WP7 Gingerbread keyboard, I am left with google voice and there isnt a keyboard in it. Please do suggest how to bring it back.
I want to use default keyboard to fit in with the themes for CM9 I use
Thank You

What if you reflash the same rom without wiping data, maybe that'll work??

I extracted LatinIME.apk and installed it manually. It asked me to overwrite so I confirmed. Now the keyboard in Settings > Apps appears as DISABLED.
I have already tried wiping cache / dalvik, install the nightly again with wipe cache + dalvik, but to no avail. Too "Betaphobic" to move on to JB as a complete wipe, as I love the stability of CM9 otherwise.
I wish I never installed the wp7 keyboard app.

[Q] [Swype] Need orignal galaxy apollo swype back

I flashed the Kyrillos v7 rom a couple of days back and it is really good
However the swype that is present constantly replaces the words that i have typed and that bugs me a lot
How can i get the orignal swype that i got with the eclair apollo back?????
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125387
Just copy Swype.apk from XXJPS to your /system/app folder Or you could look into the settings, but I don't now if you can disable it, I'm not using Swype...
there is a way to change settings
in settings, under local and text, press swype settings, word suggestion and uncheck auto correct.

[SOLVED] Many apps in the Market not compatible

Hello everybody,
a rather odd thing happened to me: after the latest update to cm7-111107[unofficial] from genokolar I am not able to download most apps from the market (including Flash player and even Angry Birds!). It says the applications were not compatible with my device (U8800). But I had no problems with the versions before, as exactly the same apps installed just fine! I've checked both build.prop files and there are virtually no differences. Does anyone experience the same issue? And what reasons for incompatibility are there besides the device settings in the build.prop? Clearing the market data doesn't help. And I did a full wipe, cleared system, data and cache partition and dalvik cache...
Thanks in advance!
Edit: I found the key problem. At least for me it was... In the build.prop there is an option "qemu.sf.lcd_density" which I Set to 220. Back to 240 and everything is working fine again. Just a littlebit bigger. But you can change this after the installation of the desired programs. Never thought this entry was the reason. But anyway thanks for your answers to my question.
Huh weird.... everything works for me and I also have the latest cm7.
Sent from my u8800 using xda premium
I have the same problem. Install from previous backup was the only way
use the newest oxygen. so far I didn't notice any issue, all apps works well

change the keyboard on stock

i searched and all i could find was how to change the keyboard on a non stock rom.
i was wondering how to go about changing the keyboard on a stock rom, i installed thumb keyboard but as you know the stock roms do not have a place to change the keyboard in the settings.
would i need to place the files in the system data/ app (i dont remember which one it was) like i did when i had cm7 on my fire?

Have u tried this one?
Hidden Settings
I did this to get swype before I switched to CM7/CM9 I think what I ended up doing is downloading a hidden settings app, which allowed me to locate the option for keyboards. I think there is one available from amazon market, and a few in the play store.
think you mean this one:

Your new keyboard must be copied to system/app (with rooted device)
Then use nook color app to switch keyboard

Disable Samsung Keyboard?

Hi all!
I'm trying to permanently disable the Samsung Keyboard. The problem is, randomly the keyboard will be set back as my default. If I uncheck the keyboard and reboot the device, it is checked again. I'd like to use swiftkey as my primary keyboard, but not if I have to change back every few hours.
Anyone know how to resolve this issue?
I'm rooted and running Dynamic Kat v4. I have chosen to use the stock keyboard under the roms settings.
Thanks!

Once you installed a different keyboard go to /system/app and add .bak to LatinIME.apk (LatinIME.apk.bak) or delete it, reboot and the Samsung keyboard will not start up again.
As you've rooted your device, you can permanently delete samsung keyboard from system - app..
Better keep a backup first of those files which you want to delete.. So later if you face any problem, so you can restore them..

If rooted, other solution after installing other keyboard (mine's swipe keyboard) is to freeze samsung keyboard by Titanium Backup.
That's what I did and works well.
Best regards
Franky
Thanks for the help all.
I couldn't find LatinIME.apk, maybe because I have a custom rom loaded or I wasn't using the right tool to look for the file. I tried file manager and even windows explorer when connected to my PC but didn't find the file.
Used Titanium Backup and it worked like a charm.
Thanks all!

Help please!

So yesterday I was browsing the Google Play Store when I noticed Google keyboard wasn't installed even though I have it so I attempt to install it again and it failed. I thought it was just a bug so I left it and the next day when I restarted my phone Google keyboard just disappeared. I can't use it anymore I can only third-party keyboard from playstore. Help please I need to get Google keyboard back because I'm so far not liking third-party keyboard. I don't know what I did wrong but tried to fix it by wiping system data and reflash the ROM and G apps but that didn't fix it. So please help me fix this problem thank you in advance.

It says "this app conflict with the existing app by the same name" Google keyboard doesn't show up on titanium backup though.
In your apps settings, check for disabled apps and see if it's there to reenable

How do I do that I'm running cm 14.1 android 7.1 and I don't see that option. BTW if I select show system apps, it's not in there either. BTW I just tested, disable apps will show up on titanium back-up as frozen and a option to defrost but google keyboard isn't even in titanium back-up.
