Input method for qwerty keyboard?

Thanks a lot!

My own favorites are: Tengo Keyboard or TongoThumb ; Touchpal ; Ezinput (free available here in this forum) try them out and decide for the best for you

you can also try Resco keyboard or SPB Keyboard

Hi Bulldog and nir36,
Thanks for your input.
But my question is for real qwerty keyboard input. All your suggested are virtual (soft) input method. They do not predict or auto correction key inputs.
Let me know if I am wrong.

Sorry but I am not sure what you mean now with "Real Querty keyboard input" Anyhow Yes all the kepboards name that we have mentioned are soft inputs and yes all of them have a prediction or suggestion of words. You can have also other languages. However most of them give you option to switch on or off those T9 kind options. The Best google for those Keybords and visit their web pages to get more info.

if you're looking for something to predict words using your HW keyboard you can use the original Diamond XT9 or Opal XT9 keyboards.. you can find them in the Development and Hacking section..

Sliding Input as Keyboard (SlideIT, Swype, ShapeWriter)

Hello,
I am looking for a replacement of the build in sw keyboard for my HD2. I liked the idea of sliding over the keyboards.
I found different sliding keyboards - the funny thing is that every company writes something about "patents" and unique
I tried already SlideIT and ShapeWriter, because both are available for testing. But it seems that swype is not available. I suppose it should just be bundled with pdas (e.g. omnia 2)
Now my questions:
- Are there other solutions available?
- How are the chances to have Swype on the HD2?
- I have stability problems with SlideIT on my HD2
(e.g. the screen area for SlideIT are not correctly drawn, and keeps
destroyd...)
Is there someone running SlideIT on the HD2 without problems?
Any other notes are welcome...
Best regards,
stefan

I contacted Dsaur (SlideIT) yesterday ; below is a section of the emai I sent .
"I have stumbled on a problem, whilst trying to use my phone horazontaly in Opera or tryng to text message the SlideIT keyboard does not function correctly do you have a fix inplace for this?
At the moment this is the only thing stopping me making a purchase.
Many Thanks "
==> This is there reply !!
"Yes we will fix this bug and it will be corrected in our next demo release soon (about 2 weeks). Regards
Daniel"
I cant wait I really do like this Keyboard
Scuzzy

You can try a ported version of SWYPE
It is ported from Verizon's Omnia II (same resolution as HD2)

Working!!! Rom WWE 1.43
On NON-WWE ROMs you have to move the swype folder from your locale program files folder to /Program Files/

It is quiet difficult for the first time users!
I need more practice!

SlideIT
I purchased the slide it keyboard. I fell in love with it from the start. It is working without problems on my HD2. I have noticed the same problem, mentioned earlier, about the landscape typing. It works, but it doesnt look right.
It has increased my text speed at least 50%! It doesn't play well with entering usernames and passwords, however. I find myself changing back to touch input for this.

is there any way to get GERMAN DICTIONARY for swype? because i've only spanisch and english

Swype is pretty interesting... I find myself giggling inside a little every time I *swype* a long word.

Yeah, Swype is pretty good from initial impressions. I've tried slide-it, shapewriter and I find swype's keyboard to be laid out the best (in terms of straight typing and not swiping).

Amazing
I tried SlideIT. It's ok, but I don't like the design and it does not support landscape. That's a deal breaker.
Swipe is my favorite: good design, fast. Unfortunately it's only in Spanish and English....
I am not satisfied with ShapeWriter. It did not recognise most of the words and is only avalaible in Qwerty.

I have WWE 1.43
Why doesn't it work for me?
Its installed in root/Program Files/
I can go to settings > personal > input and its there, but whenever i choose it, it automatically goes back to the default htc keyboard.

You can modify the input with SK Tools or a cab named SIPChange.

Installed th .CAB file that already puts the program in root\program files, but it does not work om my HD2. The only thing I see after enabling Swype, is a black square that fills up the left half of the screen. I'm using Dutch ROM 1.43. Any ideas/suggestions how to get it to work?
regards, Kuzibri
OK, after downloading the .CAB file from different sources, I got it working. First impression: Not much difference with SlideIT, but can be judged only when there is a Dutch dict for Swype. Anyone?

Now I have this error message with SlideIT:
(3)missing lang data!!!
What can I do? Impossible to uninstall/install the cab.

[Q] Small and not full qwerty keyboard

does anyone know how to change the full qwerty keyboard to a small one (like the phone calling keyboard)?
is there any app that i have to download?
i have big fingers and the full querty keyboard is not good for me.
thank you

Compact QWERTY with XT9 might be what you're looking for. Try finding it in your keyboard settings.

HTC_IME also has a phone t9 and compact qwerty, you can install it as an apk, it's on the forums somewhere.

Ultra keyboard is a paid alternative with a compact keyboard.

Phonepad Keyboard App

So yeah, I spend the whole day searching for a better phonepad keyboard. But everything that pops out is for qwerty. Texting is a major communication tool in our country and yeah, english is not the norm so I can't use Swype even though I'm dying too use it. So a better phonepad keyboard is the solution.
I wanna change it since the Optimus 1 keyboard is too cramped for me, I'm looking for one with bigger keys.
Thanks in advance!!

What exactly are you looking for? A number pad style keyboard? Blackberry style keyboard (2 letters per key)? Or just a better QWERTY?
I'm not sure but I think the HTC_IME keyboard allows various styles to choose from (all of the above 3 I mentioned). There is also Swype which eliminates the need for large keys (because you don't press the keys, you use motion gestures).
Me, I personally love the stock Android keyboard. It seems pretty good at knowing what I'm pounding out.

A number pad keyboard. The ones that you see from older phones

Search for the IME mod keyboard. It's got a phone keypad style keyboard.

WOW!!!!!! It works! Thank you so much~!!! This is exactly what I'm looking for! You can even edit the smileys! Perfect! Thanks!

Oh no. Wait, I had a bit of a problem.
I don't know what is the setting called but I'm pretty sure it's present in tis app.
When I use the phonepad keyboard, for example I press "2" so the 1st letter that will come out is "A" I noticed that the time that "A" is highlighted is quite long compared to the native android keyboard, thus slowing my typing down. It does not only affect the phonepad keyboard but also the compact qwerty. How do I edit this setting? Thanks!!

Please I really need help!

Sorry, you cannot edit that setting.
Try instead Better keyboard. It also has a keypad-like one.
