I believe Burst Plur Star Alpha has this for synergy. Also the latest release of MikGV2.3

I wasn't able to extract and move HTC trace from either source.

Terrible, comes with mikg v 2.3 .
the accuracy was way off. Also the trace feature wasn't available on every application. Didn't work when using google search, web pages,seemed to only work in handcent
I couldn't run back to swype beta 3 quick enough..

[Q] landscape keyboard

Is it possible for anyone to create a landscape keyboard for the touch screen ?
Sent from my SGH-T839 using XDA App

I believe some of the custom ROMs already have one, at the very least. Poke through the dev forum and see if you can find what you're looking for.

There is no current ROM that has this, it is yet to be seen if this is possible, as it wasn't built in by Samsung. They thought that there was no good way to have a landscape screen keyboard on our phones. So it would take a large amount of integration and work. Anything's possible, but as of now, it doesn't exist and is very far away if anyone is working on it.

last time I tried gokeyboard it worked in landscape. but it kept trying to translate my english into chinese so I uninstalled... but try this https://market.android.com/details?id=com.jb.gokeyboard&hl=en

not working for me , im gonna pm you to see if i can try to get it working

well, it used to work. you can see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15247397#post15247397 I was using it around the first of july. I tried it again today and I could not get it into landscape mode.
So, it USED to work, but apparently no longer does. Darn GO dev team for their frequent updates. (I think all go apps are some of the best btw, great/frequent updates)

Htc ime mod works in landscape I have the .apk but idk how do post it

Word, works and looks great thanks for posting. IF anyone is wondering, i used astro to install, then went to my settings, locale and text then deactivated my stock keyboard, and activated the new one.

Does the Galaxy S have the swype or regular virtual keyboard with landscape mode? If so, couldn't it work on the sidekick? If anyone would email me those keyboard apks, I'd be a guinea pig for that.

I still don't know how to do it I'm on the xda free app but ayoteddy posted it so great way on staying on top of things I habe the same one I believe
Edit: yes i have the same one just a diff color

Sorry, noob here... how do I install the file on my phone? TIA.

download the apk, place it on your sdcard, then use something like Root Explorer to move it into /system/app.

Awesome. Thanks!

Do you have a link to the download? Were you able to find the market listing?
Thanks man

So, can someone confirm this is an actual port, not the themed GB keyboard that's been floating around? If so, can someone up the apk/zip/whatever? Thanks!
Edit: This is where my skepticism is coming from... The settings menu looks just like GB with the title changed.

Swype Beta news.

Is this the official swype beta that is now working?
My official beta would not work, but a version posted elsewhere in these forums works fine...

Swype Beta worked for me
The swype beta worked for me on my MyTouch 4G (Glacier) I will see if it works on my One S today.

Official Swype beta installed just fine on my one s stock, unrooted.
Ps, we don't have Swype pre installed, that is an HTC keyboard with Swype features.

I installed the apk from the previous post and worked then later I got a message saying there was an official beta update.installed the official and works great.

Does anyone know how to get different colored themes for the new version of swype? I realize there is modded apk's but I read a review on The Verge and it is white. I doubt a tech review site would modify it for a review.
Here's the link to the article I'm talking about, I want that version!:

I never got a message, but have now installed the official beta as well.
About 5 minutes after installing, I got a random reboot on my phone which I have hardly ever had. Hope it is not related....

Downloaded this a few days ago, working great except one problem...
Sometimes when I press the space button it close the keyboard and goes to the home screen (yes I'm sure I wasn't accidentally pressing home button ). Mainly noticed in stock messaging app, and I always get the toast notification "Swype will automatically insert a space for you".
Anyone else?
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using XDA

happens to me sometimes too...thought maybe the home key was a little sensitive or I have fat fingers

I have both the older swype and the one that was offered lately running on the One S.
What i find interesting is that the new Swype seems to be very different. The layout has changed, functions have been reordered, its faster, doesn't have its terrible lag anymore. Also now its offered under the company name of "Nuance" which i never saw before. It's a bit like a new keyboard.
Also, i am not sure it is as good as it used to be. I have ambivalent feelings for it at the moment.
But to answer to the main question of the thread: both versions run perfectly well on the One S and i had never had a reboot. I am on LeeDroid. I have had it on a rooted stock ROM (1.78 base) before.

Yes I agree. The latest was significant. It improves a lot of stuff.
I just want to be able to skin it again....:-(

You can still skin it...sort of. The problem is that unless you know their private key, you can't sign it properly. If you resign it, it will still install and function as a normal keyboard, minus the actual Swype feature. Sucks too because I've skinned it to match the stock keyboard beautifully. Oh well.

can anyone pm
Is there anyone that can PM me the link to get it? Or link to a drop box dl for the apk?

Hi this is my first time using ICS and I am finding it hard to get used to the keyboard.
I was wondering what keyboard everyone uses/recommends on their One S
Thanks

I use stock. I'm coming from the Glacier so its been difficult getting used to the larger screen. But the swipe function in stock helps a great deal.

Hey,
I'm using now SwiftKey 3 ... before it was released I'd prefered Smart Keyboard Pro ... because I cannont handle Keyboards without a little bit of space between the buttons.
regards,
mmry

Thanks I will have a look and try those, I dont see the point of some of the keys like the arrows at the bottom it just seems too crowded for me

It's a toss up between the new swift keyboard and slideit for me... Also Used A. I. Keyboard with no problems, but for sure tons of options

STOCK AOSP ICS keyboard is the best! Get it in the market if you are using sense rom.
