How to do double letters gesture typing? - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi just wondering if anyone can help me out. An example of my problem is i was using gesture typing and tried to spell off. But could not get the second "f" all it would do is "of"
Is there anyting we have to do to assure this doesn't happen?

Try making a circle on the doubled letter. That works on Swype.

All I have to do is pause on the letter I want duplicated. If that doesn't work try to go back and forth over it

SMS app options

Can anyone recommend a SMS text option app or service that might be on the 7 already I'm missing. Tired of doing the tiny brain thing switching back and forth with the phone. Thanks!

Asus screen shot ability on Nexus 7?

Is there anyway to get the Asus screen shot shortcut (press and hold recent apps) on the Nexus 7?

Press Power and Volume Down simultaneously.

I am aware of power and volume down, but the design of the buttons combined with the folio case make it hard to access them. I am looking for an on screen shortcut like Asus uses on the TF300. Thanks.

Do you mean something like this. I don't know if you can add to the power menus on stock.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Yes, something like that would be great.

What ROM are you using.....I doubt it is possible on stock.

You can do that with AOKP

I found an app called "Screenshot It" that adds a shortcut to the notification area. Thanks everyone for the input.
yeah AOKP has a power menu option to add it when you hold the power button, very easy to use
If your device is rooted, you can use a program called utter! (a voice activated assistant with a lot of voice commands that runs in the background). Shake your device to wake up utter! and say "Take a screenshot". Most commands in utter! do not require a rooted device but a few do.
If your ok aokp, you can change a softkey to a screen shot one. Really cool.

Swype? Custom ROM?

Thumb Keyboard has it. I'd have thought Swiftkey being such a popular one also has it
SwiftKey does have it in fact I just swiped this message with it, I just don't like how you can't swipe all the time so that's why I want the 4.2 keyboard to have long press features

Stock keyboard sucks. What do you use?

What else is compatible with jb 4.2.2?

Did you try swype under Language and input options?
Seriously what is up with the stock keyboard? It seemed pretty decent on the Note 2, but on the S4 if won't insert autocorrections when you hit space, and there's nothing in the options to enable it to do so. That is such a basic feature, and leaving it out is a huge step backwards. Samsung, what were you thinking?

Get SwiftKey. Blows everything else away.

Also using SwiftKey. I never cared for stock keyboards except for the blackberry keyboard but that's a whole different phone and argument in itself lol

I use the new Swype, it's came a long way.

+1, especially since they added the option to use swipe.

Search the play store for jelly been keyboard. Its the stock android 4.2 keyboard
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda app-developers app
Swiftkey is my keyboard of choice. Works really well.
SwiftKey is the ultimate!
SwiftKey and Swype + Dragon - switching between the two. Not sure if I want to invest the $4 yet for SwiftKey!
I use the new Swype from the play store

You can turn off auto correct in the keyboard settings. I like the keyboard i like the fact it always has numbers at the top.
Swiftkey for life.
I use the stock 4.2 keyboard. I keep the apk on my SD so I can install it. You can swype or type and it seems to work well.
SwiftKey... Love it

+1 for SwiftKey.... Although I wish it also had the option for numbers at the top for us with bigger screens! But adjusting the long press to about 200ms makes it tolerable! Other that SwiftKey is bar far the best!

Just use Google's keyboard in Google play, I'm finding the LG keyboard a bit cluttered tbh and I'm thinking of getting Google's keyboard also.

I just switched back to SwiftKey but I do like LG's keyboard so I was curious if anyone knew of a way to change that.
