But I hammer data into this thing like its a laptop....and NO keyboard has done the trick like my Iphone's which is the standard.... Til this baby!
Very happy.
Thank you Smart Keyboard Pro developers.
hi rockky,

That seems to be about one keyboard in particular.

@rocky
........never mind me
whats the difference between this and the stock keyboard?
There's 4 different ones but the Iphone one has spaces surrounding all letters making it way easier to deliniate letters visually and hit them physically.
I'm using Swiftkey alpha limited version.
It predicts your next word rather than correcting it. And you choose one of 3 boxes on top instead of pressing space. So after typing a couple of letters, the word you want is usually up there.
where did you find swiftkey?
/me demands a swiftkey apk.
the default nexus one keyboard does suck monkey rocks.... I've been looking for a keyboard, but I just tried the DESIRE ROM and the HTC keyboard ROCKS! The ROM is just not quite ready for prime time though...
dang swift key is pretty badass
Really wish someone had a swiftkey apk to throw to the great people at xda devs.

A quick google for "swiftkey apk" will get you a copy!
Just tried it out and its pretty good!
I also love Smart Keyboard Pro.. I keep switching between SKP, HTC and Swiftkey!
Smart Keyboard has greatly improved its word correction algorithm. It is still not on par with HTC_IME's but I would say it is almost comparable to the stock one. I prefer Smart Keyboard for the multitouch capabilities. I type faster and it just feels more natural. I know the HTC_IME is not multitouch, is Swiftkey? I signed up for the beta trial but as of yet have not received notice.
Swiftkey is hands down the best N1 keyboard.

Testing now. I will let you know.

swift key gave me better results than Smart pro.
They both suck ass simply because theyve failed to include a good voice to text icon.
I like smart keyboard a lot, I just wish it had voice to text. I'd assume it's just a simple API call, and you're done, no? Not like you need to code the entire service.
I can type incredibly fast with it, which I cannot do on the stock keyboard. That is enough for me to use it.
Have to say that Smart KB is really great. Works very well with Germany qwertz layout and types better than stock or htc.
I still think Swype is #1 keyboard.

The XDA keyboard is great an all, but I've really loved the AOSP Keyboard on the older DarchLegend roms. I don't see it on any of his new roms, and i can't find an .apk for it.
I've searched for awhile, no luck. Anyone know where it's at?
are you talking about the OEM android keyboard? if so then i second that. i'd love to find out how to get the keyboard back. i hate the htc keyboard with a passion
Yeah. The HTC keyboard, and our version of it, arent great. I also find them very laggy at times; I have to type very slowly and deliberately, which isn't cool.
This should work, just flash from recovery.

EDIT: Works with latest Sprint Leak, but also works with old Legend leak.
So try it on the new
Perfect, thanks!
So I flashed this keyboard and it shows up under my Keyboard settings but the HTC Keyboard still shows up when I want to type. Is there something I'm missing? I'm using a flashed version of the Sprint 2.1 leak.

I tried out this keyboard, and it's no faster than the HTC keyboard. Swype seems like the only input method that isn't ridiculously laggy on this phone.

Not in my experience. With the sound and vibration off, it's just as fast as the sense keyboard with sound and vibration off, same goes for them both on. Also, it keeps giving me nonsensical autocorrections. It tries to correct common words like "an" to "Android".

this keyboard makes my life a lot easier
what i'm really interested in is how to do it for future apps?
It seems that alot of cooks are cooking in the XDA Sense keyboard and I have found it extremely laggy. Glad I found this to install. Thanks.
When I installed the AOSP keyboard, the a and l both have gaps on the side of them and are transparent, is there any way to fix this?
Using the keyboard in Darchdroid has made me like my phone again. The HTC keyboard is so painfully laggy its mindnumbing. The stock Android keyboard is instant and accurate, love it.

Same here. I have been using it for awhile and I like it alot more. The keys are smaller which as I get more accurate I have found I can type faster than on the htc keyboard.
I dont know how many of you all knw about this i did a search and no thread came up so im sharing info. Im running the latest damage, and i found this keyboard app in the market called ThickButtons, its easily the best keyboard out there that ive ever used in my opinion. What it does is when youre typing it makes the keys that it assumes you want to click big, like it enlarges the letters so that it makes it easier to type. Also it never lags dudes. I encourage you guys to give thickbuttons a try i fell in love with it. I looked for it in 1.5 but it seems to only be in the newest market. enjoy this info if you care. When you guys try it come let me know if you agree with me.
Awesome, ill look into it.

Yea, I heard about this app months ago. Just never tried it out. You would think after so many versions of Better Keyboard they would make it better and more responsive.
They should call it not better than stock keyboard lmfao

I would never EVER use Swype. I think its garbage.
I tried this and I had more lag and I'm use to the buttons where they are and when this app makes keys bigger I hit the wrong button. My stock keyboard runs with almost no lag.

Holy crap. The lag on this keyboard is horrendous.
I just went into sms and typed "This is a test for the new thick buttons keyboard". I then set the phone down, and 45 seconds later it finished typing it out, and it said "This id w trdt of thw nee tjivk nuttins keubiatd".
I'll try rebooting, maybe that will fix it.

wow!! we have a few different thoughts on this kb. But &roid rage is a reliable source so ill have to pass. swype,android and htc kb are all built into my rom so this is no great loss. Personally i dont really use any kb on a phone since i hate them, but if i MUST be tortured, for me its a tie between the swype swype, and the android kb responsiveness
I did a search for it in the marketplace and can't get any results guys...please advise

A reboot got rid of the lag a little bit, but I just cant get used to it. Oh well. I'm sure it works great for others, just like I LOVE swype but others dont. To each their own.

As some people have noticed, the regular 2.1 apk's force close everytime you try to open it on 2.2. I didnt see a thread here for the 2.2 version's yet i seen many questions in many different threads as to why it wont work or if theres alternate versions.
I am not responsible for what happens to your phone in any way shape or form, what you choose to do with this is solely your choice. I also take no credit for this as all the credit for the HTC_IME mod goes to jonasl and the credit for Swype Beta goes to the makers of Swype, im simply just reposting the links.

Im pretty sure there isnt a difference between the two. I think it only effects certain users because no matter what i did, i couldnt get any other version of swype to work on CM6 2.2 then this one. If you search the forums, you will see some other people sharing the same characteristics as we do, its hit or miss...
It work for me
I just Install the above link and I was able to use SWYPE on my HTC HD2 Android I am using CM6 RC3 works fine without any problem thank to all the people for this

Hmm, not sure you are right about this. This keyboard is for sure great,.but gingerbread keyboard has all important base base features, like multi touch key combos. It also looks attracting. And best, we will have full sources for it, which makes it much more easy to expand.
It might attract an active developer, time will show....

I really hope this is possbile on the nexus s. The HTC IME keyboard is absolutely indispensible to me. It in my experience has by far the best spell correction out of any keyboard I've tried. No other keyboard can I mess a word up so bad, add in a few extra letters than the word has, or not have enough, and it will still figure out what I'm trying to say.

Big thanks, gimpsta. I've been playing around with the keyboard generator since last night and it's an awesome service :]
I also have a wild, nubby question:
Probably the only thing I love about the stock Froyo keyboard is the upward-swipe gesture that extends the number and punctuation rows above the qwerty layout. The long-press method on HTC IME is alright, but not quite as fast (for me) as the upward-swipe.
Is that something that's even possible to incorporate into this mod? Or is it sort of an apples to oranges kind of thing?
Thanks for keeping everything up to date. If I know myself well enough, I'll be back to your generator in about two days to whip up another layout
You can set long press delay to 250 ms which is much faster to me than swype up on stock kb.
Love the keyboard!
Mainly using Swype now but HTC_IME mod still rocks

The first part, no. As far as making the gingerbread keyboard look like this, it could probably be skinned to look like this and maybe some features added, but if you really want THIS (htc_ime mod) keyboard/feature set with multitouch I highly recommend smart keyboard pro. You can skin it to look just like htc_ime (or anything you want) and it has literally every feature htc_ime mod has and then some.

It's really not possible (or at least very easy) to modify the resolution of these keyboards without source. If there isn't one that works for your resolution then there isn't much anyone can do at this moment, sorry.
