Test out the new SwiftKey flow beta with flow through space feature and with its powerful prediction along with swype feature, it is now beast of a keyboard.
Try it right here at :- http://www.swiftkey.net/flow/

Yup it is... It just puts every other keyboard out of the competition..
At last!!
I have been checking my mail daily to try this app since a month when i saw someone post the link here. And it arrives yesterday. Now trying it out!! I had been a huge fan of Swype for its ease and swiftkey(not that much) but loved its prediction. Can't think what the combo will be like!!!
Installing it now
It is a great app but takes quite some time to get output on the screen. For example, I finish typing the sentence before it finishes displaying on the screen. But the themes and all is amazing! Thanks for sharing.

Ohh! So this problem exists with all. I thought the RAM is too high around 50MB only for this and maybe there was not enough of RAM to cause this problem. Any ways it is still beta version. Hope they improve it.

yes its still in beta and one should also consider that our device is getting too old with 2gb RAM coming in trend..
Have it up. Great potential here. I cannot really say Swype is so much quicker but since this baby does groups of words, the delay multiplies and that becomes a problem. Swype's "keys" are larger, easier to use (same problem with TouchPal!) and it show more suggestions (could be a plus or a minus). Wonder if Paranoid options can improve the layouts. Problem with c/r vs smiley--filed as a bug.
Hats off to the devs at Swiftkey. Google took, possibly the same code, and tied it down to ARMv7. Disgusting. Swiftkey flow runs on our old clunkers just fine!
Nice keyboard but it takes up like 2/3 of our screen.

Key heights can be adjusted. Swype's sizes and layout, to me, is much easier to use.
May also experiment with Paranoid for modifying sizes.

Menu is over the ',' (comma). Setting from there.
I used this keyboard for a while but had to go back to Swype...not the new Swype but the ICS one.. version 3.26 i think...that was the best...the main problem with this keyboard is that there are no suggestions...just predictions..for example..if i swype "if" and it comes up as "of" you must delete the word because there is no suggestion...it just suggests the next word it thinks you want to insert....and you have to be very accurate...while on swype..if you do the same thing and it comes up as something else...suggestions will be like "if" "off" "for" etc...so many suggestions...and you can choose in swype between prediction and suggestion...so yeah not such a good experience with this keyboard...and the Flow through space method still needs a lot of work as it is far from accurate....but no doubt that it looks so much better and takes up only 8 mb of space i think...if they had the suggestion thing i'd be overjoyed..till then...enjoy it everyone
Yasss I love this with the Pumpkin theme. I can't wait until this gets a stable release.

lol i could spend all day explaining the joke of a keyboard this is.
spend some time with it for awhile and u will see what i mean.
i rotate between swiftkey and a swype-like awesome keyboard with a prediction list that shows up while u slide ur finger around, its no longer on the market but its called shape writer. its available for download around the internet.
I like it a lot better than swype, which I use for portrait. It seems to be more accurate, and the word choice options are easier to use and less obtrusive.
For landscape, I normally use swiftkey, and I think swiftkey is much better for me. Swiftkey does a better job with correction, capitalization, and punctuation, has the option for space key to accept the main word choice, adds spaces correctly, and shows more of your typing at the top to allow for easier editing.
So, I think I'll program keyboard manager to use this for portrait and swiftkey for landscape.
Why are you guys comparing these virtual keyboards when we have a physical keyboard that's now working 100% with no key skips thanks to mkasick? Am I missing something? For quick texts, I sometimes use Swype myself but I use the physical keyboard for just about everything else and since the fix, it's been terrific.
I know there are many keyboard topics, but I just can't find a one that works well on my Play.
-Smart Keyboard (Trial)
*Best keyboard for my needs, but it seriously slows the phone down after a day or two. As soon as I uninstall, everything starts working perfectly again.
-Stock Xperia Play
*Terrible. Doesn't remember contractions and doesn't have the mic button.
-Keyboard from Android 2.3 (free)
*Okay, but has a stupid emoticons symbol where the 'Enter' button should be during sms composition. I dislike the way it handles punctuation after typing out words.
I'm honestly starting to hate this phone because it's such a pain to enter data, no matter what I try. Never had issues on my old iPhone.
What is everyone using? And no, I don't want to use swype.
Thanks!

Did you know that you dont have to swype your finger to type? You can also just type normally without having to change anything. Even normal typing is much better using swype than the stock keyboard. First few days swype pissed me off but now i swear by it

Couple of tips.
- Don't like the Market spewing new apps on your home screen? Just disable it in the settings.
- The persistant search bar can be disabled in Trebuchet's settings.
- Nova Launcher is an alternate to Trebuchet. I'm using it. It has a couple of useful features, like grid size. You can also disable widgets in the drawer, and get your standard long-press menu back. I highly recommend doing this if you use Beautiful Widgets, as that will spam up your widget drawer. Use AppWidgetPicker 2.0 pushed to /system/app to take care of this.
- Want your 4G toggle? There's a widget for it. It'll show up in the quick panel later.
Unfortunately, the voice actions are not available as of yet. Voice Search can be downloaded from the Market, but the speech-to-text as demonstrated on the GNexus is nowhere to be seen. It's an upstream issue.

I haven't explored VVM yet, but will post when I've got something. EDIT: As of right now, VVM is just plain not happening. I switched to Google Voice, which works well at the moment.
I love it. It doesn't feel like an alpha. The only feature I hate is that the cancel and ok buttons have switched so the cancel button is now on the left side and ok is on the right side. I keep cancelling when I think I'm pressing ok because I'm used to the other way.
Not that I won't get used to it.
I think the whole launch was beautifully executed, the only thing keeping me from staying on CM9 at the moment is that I cant restore the data from my apps.
The soft keyboard is a pain and I can't figure out how to set a static IP for wifi. Battery percentage doesn't work. I like how the LED notifications are fixed and how haptic feedback is back and working way better. The ROM overall is very fast. I backed up all my apps and contacts/SMS with mybackup pro and everything works perfect! Has anybody figured out how to get visual voicemail working?

Most of my favorite games don't work or freeze (my biggest complaint)
asphalt 6 crashes

street fighter IV crashes
few lags, but the rom is really smooth
camera recording issue (already noted by cm) and few minor bugs (like showing battery percentage in status bar doesn't show) and a few fc's here and there..
I haven't used the GPS for a while but it fine so far.
The CM team is amazing for the awesome rom (cm7 as well) and I am loving it so far...i am definitely donating
I think this rom is more a beta because it only has a few quirks to work out imo

Shame about the new boot animation, though. I kinda dug the colorfulness of the last one. This is a little too bluish, wooshy, scifi looking, like a wonky portal effect from 10 years ago. Reminds me of the unfortunate tastes that gave the mod community a few too many Matrix themes.

You can change the boot animation back to the old one if you want to. The new alpha-5 boot animation caused me to have a seizure so I found the bootanimation.zip file and replaced the new one with the old one lol

It's a launcher developed by Chris Lacy. He does good work. I use his twitter app, tweet lanes. It's one of the better twitter clients imho. He's very responsive to user feedback. This launcher is in its infancy so it'll get better

At least with Nova/Apex you can see how it runs on your device over a day or two compared to Action Launcher which you basically have 15 minutes to trial it and if you don't like it you only have 15 minutes to request a refund.

What stopped me from using it is the app drawer in the top left. It'd be a nuisance for me to reach all the way up there every time I needed to access the drawer o_0

I was concerned about this too - I think you can open the app drawer with the home button, but some apps you want will still be at the top of the list. Infact, if you use the A-Z most will be at the top.
Does anyone know if there is a way around this (e.g, when you press the letter they are offset from the top by a couple of apps)?
I will certainly keep an eye on this, I was quite impressed with the frequent updates for tweetlanes.
The app drawer isn't really on the top left, you can press the home button and it will open, and you can also just swipe right when you are on your "left most" home screen.
I use this on my Nexus 7, and I think its great, good to see something different and not horrifically overpriced!
For me, all it needs is a landscape option, I wouldn't really use landscape on my N4, but I would use it quite a bit on my N7!

I have it, it is very nice, not too many features yet, and it has a very noticeable lag time. Otherwise it looks great and has good ideas, just not implemented to the top standards yet.

I've got zero lag on mine and Chris Lacy fixed the FC when adding widgets. This launcher is my daily driver now. The price is awesome considering that you pay about the same for Nova/Apex too...

Completely different.
Why are mobile phone users so cheap in general? Skip your pizza next Friday.

It has become my daily driver. I love the smoothness and the simplicity of it. Very fast too work with and look good. No lag at all here. The covers are great too. Specially for phone and browser.
