Anyone know if there's a way, or have any ideas for how to, change the emoticon that the smiley button on the (stock) keyboard produces? I hate the smiley. haha

I hate the keyboard on the EVO i am new to the phone and did not know if there was an app or hack that could change the keyboard. my two main problems are i hate having to press the 123 button to get to the numbers and sym. i came from a palm pre and there was a button that just switched to the sym. for you. and when using in landscape mode and typing you have to click the button to close the keyboard to hit the send, search, ect. button clicking the enter button just adds a new line. makes me want to type on the compact keyboard all the time which defeats the purpose of having the landscape keyboard.
Thanks,
JJ
There are lots of different keyboards available in the Market. Look up Smart Keyboard or Better Keyboard for starters.
When I used the landscape keyboard to send an SMS message from my Skyrocket, the default layout of the message composition screen has the "attach" button above the "send" button, meaning I can't directly click send. I either have to go "back" to dispose the keyboard to reveal the "send" button, or carefully scroll the narrow view-port above the keyboard to reveal it.
When I used SwiftKey, I believe it had a button on the keyboard that managed to send the message. But I'm trying to use either stock or the ICS port keyboard since SwiftKey's space-bar was too narrow for my fat thumbs.
Is anyone else plagued by this? Any clever solutions?

Lol....
OP: if in landscape mode, after you type your message, hit the BACK soft button.... that will hide keyboard and show the attach option abovd the send option
I will agree that's annoying as hell. Never noticed it bc I don't type in landscape. Thank god I don't.
In landscape hit done and it will send if i remember right
Where is "Done"?

When I used Swype, it had a "Done" button I believe. But I couldn't handle Swype's narrow spacebar. Why doesn't the stock Android 2.3.5 keyboard have a "Done" button, or the back-ported ICS keyboard (shown above)?
This is so frustrating! Seems like just generally poor designing by samsung. The SGS1 didnt have this issue and a part of me wants to pull the API of the messaging off of my Captivate on to my skyrocket. Does anyone know if this is possible
Hello, i successfully decompiled and changed my punctuation menu, and added custom smiley keys to it.
Now i am trying to have it ALWAYS display the smiley menu, not the smiley key where the enter goes, but when pressing and holding on the action key (whatever it may be) i want it to show the list of smiley faces. But i dont even know what the list of smiley faces is called or where the action for holding the button is.
Any help is appreciated. Need to get my brain rolling again :/
Just an occasional bump
My single largest complain is the stock keyboard.
I was able to get the voice input key showing, but the need to keep the period key pressed to find the question or exclamation point seems a bit convoluted to me.
The one I can't stand is the freaking smiley key taking over the New Line key in the SMS/Hangouts app. I have to press the CAPS lock to see the New Line key
I wish I could disable the smiley key or swap it to have the new line key as default in the lowercase keyboard...
Never mind... I found 8sms app and it does exactly what I wanted, plus I like it better than the hangouts for SMS... :good:
OK, thought I'd try Sammy keyboard rather than my usual Microsoft one. Where on earth do I find emoji and can I have a button for them on my keyboard... I use them a lot.
Should be a smiley face where it says ENTER MESSAGE. Click it and it should open a toolbar with any and all emojis available. You can remap a button, but then you lose that button.
