Which texting method do you like best? Swype, SwiftKey, or FlexT9?
Personally I loved swype when it came out, then when Swiftkey came out I liked that better and changed to that now, (the free app of the day on the amazon app store is FlextT9 so grab it today cuz it's 4.99 regularly) I started using this FlexT9 and I'm not %100 sure yet but so far I'm really liking it, Maybe even better than swiftkey, it's pretty nice, I recommend you at least try it. Like I said, today only it's free on the amazon appstore, so it won't cost you anything to give it a try.
after using it a little while here I noticed this little wierd swirly looking key at the bottom of the keyboard and I didn't know what it did so I pressed it and that makes it so you can text with your voice, and it works perfectly. I sent about 10 texts using it and it pics up what I say correctly every time. I'm definitely making a permanent change to FlexT9.
I loved using swype after I got used to it but for some reason it just got boring for me. I've been using the Gingerbread stock keyboard for months now. Love the look and the speed.
Swype. It requires some practice but done that it's great.

I first got swype when it first came out, I found that it worked much better on my Droid then it does on my Thunderbolt. Then I was using Better Keyboard 8 for the longest, but FlexT9 is my new favorite by far. its pretty awesome and so far I haven't had any problems. and it spell correct is the best compared to the other two also. The Better Keyboard had terrible auto correct, it was like I was drunk texting for something.
Swype always. I couldn't even stand my G2's keyboard after Swyping for over a year.

The one that gets modded and themed to match whatever is currently on my phone. Which had been mainly swype so far.
I like swype, but I ahve to admit I've never tried SwiftKey nor FlexT9. BTW, it seems like swype can be laggy sometime. Perhaps I should text out SwiftKey and FlexT9.
I like Swype, but you loose time if the word is unknown. I tried SwiftKey and 10 minutes later I already decided to purchase it from the Market. And the comming version 2 seems to be even better in predicting the next word that you want to type.
I use all 4 ways! Swipe, On screen keyboard, phyical keyboard, and voice... They all have their needs...

I've gone down the same road as this. I keep switching it up because I get bored with one.
I think SwiftKey is the best way.
Tried many but swiftkeys is best imo. Waiting for the long promised themes though.

@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

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.
http://www.swypeinc.com/
Since it has become hard to find a good working version of Swype (Legally of course), I've been looking around at other keyboards that are similar to Swype, or even completely different, but are still better then the default keyboard.
When I did use swype, I actually only used the swyping feature 50% of the time, so that believe it or not is a feature I won't really miss too much. The big deal with Swype, and the reason why I still keep swype on my android is the design of the keyboard. I find it much easier to type on it at a fast pace without actually messing up. I always screw up with the default one.
Anyone have any recommendations for swype replacements?
Edit: I want this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6eKm1gUnTE
If you like the keyboard design, you might want to consider using HTC IME mod, you can customize button size and spacing. All in all, the default keyboard is much better than you think, because of the many options.
I still use swype though, it's just too sexy.
OK, so a small update for people in the same boat as me...
I downloaded and tested several new keyboard.
SlideIT, Better Keyboard, Smart Keyboard, and Ultra Keyboard...
IMO Ultra Keyboard is the winner BY FAR! It's pretty cheap, and IMO i like it alot better then swype. It has some amazing features, like camera mode, where it will show the view from your camera while your walking and texting so you dont run into anything, it also has swyping, which works just as well as swype. Tons of other features too!

I've been using ultra keyboard for a few months now. The customization is really second to none. It's built in vocabulary/dictionary is very in depth as well. You're going to have to spend some time fine tuning sensitivity and such. The built in mic and translator is very useful as well.

Ultra Keyboard a monster. I think imma go back and play with it again a little more now that I have my rom and kernel on lock.
That keyboard lets you limit the number of suggestions and you can even move the suggestion bar wherever you want. I even think you can "swype" with it. They did some work with that keyboard. Good buy. That and Smart Keyboard Pro and IME Mod. Those are the keyboards right there.
I'm honestly liking Ultra Keyboard more than Swype right now for a few reasons:
1. Adding and removing words from the dictionary is extremely simple and actually WORKS (I could never remove anything from the Swype dictionary; I swear I told it to delete "wil" 20 times).
2. I don't get a pop-up every 5th word telling me that the word I typed was "hidden" by another word like with the latest Swype beta.
3. Different pop-up menu means I can quickly select the word that I want if it wasn't detected without pressing a button to open the word choices menu.
So far the only thing that Swype has over Ultra is being able to swype from the exclamation point/question mark to the space bar to insert one or the other.
I had the black and red themed swype and it was by far the best keyboard I've ever used. It even seemed to swype better than the beta. I'm currently using swype. A friend logged into his gmail on my phone and got me the latest version. I feel for you though, when I lost my b/r swype I quit typing all together for a week, nothing can compare.

Press the "@" and it is there in the suggestion bar. I had to search for a bit myself. But I agree with oyu. I've used SWYPE and find Shapewriter to be much better.

swype is nice, but they seem to be playing some kinda stoopid game. either put the app on the market for us or retract it and sell it to a manufacturer or provider.

Dude, thanks for this. Just downloaded Ultra Keyboard and I love it! I was down in the "Swype-beta-expired blues" and now I'm up and rockin' again .
definitely like ultra keyboard better than swype thus far. any good tips for ultra keyboard?
I have a love-hate relationship with swype. I love to use it, but only when it works. I am in th beta program, but unfortunately the software decides to stop working all the time, and the only remedy is to switch to the stock keyboard (which is a great keyboard... until you try swype, which makes it seem like an archaic means of typing) and switch back to swype. This is extremely annoying, the newest beta is riddled with problems like this (including bugs and issues with dictionary words). I'm going to try ultra keyboard, see how that fares for me. Maybe I'll go back to swype when a new update comes out.
ultrakeyboard is nice. it'd be helpful if they allowed a 3 or 5 days to muss with it. so many options!
Ultra Keyboard for sure! I have also used it for several months. I liked Swype but didn't like that it doens't have a microphone. The microphone for Ultra is soooo good - it gives you severla options for what you said in case it "captured" it wrong (which it rarely does). Plus it is fully customizable.
Ultra + Handcent = daBomb!

That looks terrible. It can only really be used with one hand and would be terrible to use while walking. It's cumbersome and not really that intuitive as well unlike Swype. I can't see this catching all at all.

It was almost a year ago when they tried to get into the market with their unusual keyboard, and until now it's a big fail. It's not a comfortable keyboard imo, although I appreciate this 'out of the box' kind of thinking.
Personally I don't like it!! I feel so stupid trying to write one simple word!!! Takes too much time to write!! FAYOUL!!!
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App
That looks terrible, just my $.02.
At least when I first saw Swype, I saw the potential in it. And after a few weeks of awkward learning, it was by far and above my favorite keyboard on android. I can't see 8Pen even being an option for me.
Wow that looks terrible
My 14 YO daughter uses this keyboard and her words per minute are incredible. I tried it and can't get it. I think it has to do with my mind being so programmed for QWERTY. The pattern for creating words with this keyboard is so different that I have to think of every step. My daughter, on the other hand, has used alternate keyboards for so long (i.e. T9) that her brain was able to adapt very quickly. Personally I prefer the swipe style keyboards. My favorite is ShapeWriter before being acquired by Nuance. The current market version sucks, Google for version 3.0.9.
interesting video and an interesting app. :heads up:
I tried it and hated it... I don't feel like I should have to completely reprogram the way I think just to use a keyboard. I guess eventually you'd get it, but who wants to spend a few weeks learning to use a keyboard?

I'm with davtfor here. I'm not super slow but I'm a lot faster using better keyboard. I used 8pen exclusively for about 3 weeks and I'd still have to periodically have to lift my thumb to find a character.
But it is an interesting experiment. I might use it for another couple of weeks again.
I started a poll on sms preference, but I wanted to start one on keyboard too. I personally use Swift Key x. I've tried the other ones (mainly swype style key boards) and I just realize at the end of the day, I can type faster with two thumbs than dragging one. What keyboard do you guys use and what theme?
EDIT:
I use AOSP when CM7 comes out. At the end that one is my favorite.
I tried a bunch of different keyboards before settling on Smart Keyboard Pro. I just wanted a simple keyboard (no swiping, fancy predictive text that tries to guess what I'm typing, etc.) that could be themed and remove the period. That damn period was bugging me and Smart Keyboard had the option to remove it. I also like the Honeycomb theme I'm using for it.
At the moment i use SwiftKey X and i'm happy with it so far.
I use the stock one and have never tried another one. Now that I wanna try something different, I will wait a little bit to see the result of this poll.
I like the way swift key auto corrects, it does it well. Something about smart keyboard pro annoyed me. I can't remember what. I think it was something about typing smilies
Swift Key X all day in the blue neon look. Excellent sizing to the keys, great look, and great features such as the fact that if you use spacebar to automatically fill out the predicted word and then want to put punctuation, it will automatically put that punctuation up against the last word even though the cursor was spaced out one space past the last word (that was probably confusing lol).
Thumb Keyboard
Thumb Keyboard rocks! I have tried several keyboards and by far this one is the best. Granted, no swipe, but then again I'm not a big fan of the swype (I have put in the effort and am still faster with a standard qwerty). After I loaded the free version of this keyboard and trying it, I was instantly sold. It is SO easy to get used to, and the portrait mode is a one hand wonder!

Absolutely thumb keyboard is the best if you have issues with hitting the "."

Swype does that as well, Also, why is SWYPE Beta not a choice in the poll? That's what I use and it's RAD
Swype beta I was including as swype.
Since i stepped into Android, by one thing i was amazed and it was/is Swype. Then other keyboards appeared and SwiftKey X was the most popular among them. So i used it for two weeks to see how good and efficient it is then went back to Swype. Why? The video proves why.
I am on 102°F while i was typing (in fact that's the reason why i have done this video as i had nothing to do, lol), so take 30-45 seconds out from both the video.
I would like to find a more simpler article as base, but couldn't find any by simple Googling.
Regards.
PS: If already this has been done by some fellow member please pardon me, i haven't searched
I agree with you totally, imho after swype any other keyboard in android makes me sad panda =(
I actually like SwitKey better... but I use Swype. I like being able to type with one hand.
P.S. not sold on the new Swype beta - I love the prediction, but it seems to be a bit of a hog.
I am a FlexT9 man myself..
No offense, but you seem to be pretty slow at typing and I think that's why you are faster with Swype. I think it really comes down to peoples personal typing styles. I am a fast typer but end up making a decent amount of mistakes especially with the stock HTC keyboard. I recently started using the trace function on the stock keyboard on my Evo 3D (custom ICS rom though) which is basically the same thing as Swype. While I did enjoy it more than normal typing and it made me faster, I ended up correcting a lot of errors and inputting new words. I then bought Swiftkey 3 and after setting it up, fell in love. It's just a lot smarter than Swype. It's like it knows what I want to say before I even start typing. Also I love the new cobalt theme they have.
So it really depends on your personal typing styles.
I use the stock HTC keyboard, which has Swype-like "trace input" (basically a blatant clone of Swype, but IMO a nicer looking keyboard; I did install Swype before I found the option to enable trace input) and I think it is absolutely fantastic. However, on my Blackberry Playbook, the built in (and non-changeable ) keyboard is made by SwiftKey, and is apparently very similar to the Android version, only themed differently. I have to say it is quite excellent, it can often predict the next word I want to use, preventing me even having to type some words at all, and at times only makes me type the first letter or two before it guesses. Main reason I haven't tried it on Android is because it costs, and I am perfectly happy with the HTC keyboard, which is free.
If there was some amalgamation between Swype and SwiftKey, with the swyping of Swype and the prediction of SwiftKey, it would undoubtedly be my keyboard of choice.
Stock ICS keyboard FTW!
I prefer the one handed operation of Swype 3.25. Swiftkey has been ruined. I used to use it and its pumpkin theme because it disabled the keypress pop up. Now it's in every theme. And there is still no dedicated enter key.
The new Swype sucks, after nuance bought them out. I hate the mandatory Swype connect process that runs, the large footprint, etc.. 3.25 is probably the last acceptable version. If anyone has apk's of builds produced after 3.25, please post them as I'd love to try them out.
Also if anyone has a stock ics keyboard apk that was pulled from a ROM, not the market version, post that too please.

I did notice that and consider it, but to be honest, the screen on my phone is a bit cramped for "proper" typing, so I decided to stick with my HTC trace input. I'd probably only go for SwiftKey if it added a swype/trace like function.

I always liked ai type until I tried the SwiftKey beta. My only wish is that SwiftKey would do voice to text like Ai type does using the ics real time transcription rather than the old one. I never liked swype mainly because I drive for a living so my use case makes it tough to swype and drive. Much easier to peck but even easier still to speak.

The fact is that, with SwiftKey, you can tipe without watching the screen. If you use Swipe, you must watch it! Or I'm wrong?
