If I extract the keyboard from a ROM, can I use it on my n7? I prefer the layout of stock phone keyboard over tablet but I'm loving swipe and don't want to give it up!
P.s. yes I'm rooted so I would just push it to the right place, just making sure it would be compatible

I'm pretty sure the 4.2 keyboard was ported to 4.1 already.

That's not my problem, I'm on 4.2, but I prefer the phone's keyboard layout over the tablet's keyboard layout, and someone made a keyboard for the N7 with phone layout, but I'm wondering if this works too

The default and all versions of Swype are just to big for my liking(even in portrait). Writing an email is like an anaerobic work out.
Smaller trace keyboard required..any suggestions?

Thanks for the heads up on swiftkey tablet. Generally I use a swype style including stock 4.2 so I'm quite happy to give this a go.
Prediction seems well equipped for my style of misspellings lol!

I tried SwiftKey Tablet hut didn't like it... I don't really remember why... Anyway, I just use SwiftKey like I have on my phone. I rarely type in landscape, anyway, so the keys are a great size for me to type.

Kii looks good but it doesn't have face book, Gmail and sms sync which SwiftKey has.
You should take a look at "Hackers Keyboard" from the Playstore. It features a full 5row keyboard with tab, arrow keys and much more useful keys. It's perfect for use with terminals.

+1 for the kii keyboard.
for the tablet it is the best i've used so far.
MessagEase has been my favorite keyboard since my old HandSpring. It looks strange, and you have to practice a bit to get your speed up, but it is fast and hugely customizable.

Been using this for a while; started using it after a few days of using the stock keyboard and getting tired of it. I really like it.
I'm currently using SwiftKey Tablet, really nice keyboard. I decided to use it because I was bored of the stock one (stock keyboard isn't that bad after all, but I wanted to try something new).
I have to say I am happy with the 4.2 stock keyboard.
I was using the Swype Beta - for the good voice engine.
I still use the voice engine...

I've heard thumb keyboard is good its all up to the user in the end. Personally I think the stock keyboard is perfect at 160 DPI.

I switch between Swiftkey and kii keyboard.. while the kii is still in beta, you get the split layout in landscape and other goodies.. and yeah, both support themes..

Swype? Custom ROM?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
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

How do I get all these cool emotions I always see on instagram? Is it an iPhone only thing? I'm running on stock ROM and I'm not rooted. Also I use stock Google keyboard.

It's called "emoji" and you must have a rom that supports emoji in order to use them and no it's not icrap specific
