Don't thank me yet, I went ahead and installed it myself and haven't gotten gestures to work.

Lol yeah gestures arent working but i love this keybord its just nice to use im liking it better thrn swype

what are gestures??? associated with the keyboard, and regular lg keyboard will still work rite? if i download it to cm7

Yes it works great. Gestures are like tapping the phone on its side to move the cursor left and right thats what im meaning by it, at least in this case. Hope this helped some.

Does user dictionary work on this version? Like adding your own words into the dictionary
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App

No it does not if you try to enter it into the user dictionary, but it does if you double click the word in the prediction box. So i hope this helps.

can you confirm that your method works? When I click the word in the prediction box, it just inserts the word into the word into the textfield. I can't double click it.

Oh yes. Thanks for this. The cm7 keyboard suked.

Lol np, you could also sign up for Swype beta that way no mattet what rom you use you can get swype. After you download the APK save it on your SD card that way no matter what ROM your rocking you always have swype.

Gingerbread Keyboard

Here is the gingerbread keyboard - mostly compliments of AndroidBruce. I got another version working from my own SDK - but it is really slow compared to this one for some reason. MD5's on the so and apk are the same ????? oh well here is this one if anyone wants it.
Flash as an update.zip - this was only tested by me on stock dk28.
To enable go to settings > Locale and Text > check Android Keyboard.
I had to go up to select input method 3 times to get it it show up in the list...
Known issues:
Seems that user dictionary doesn't work...i'll look into it.
Perks:
it's multitouch, and best of all its not swype (I feel a "Swype is awesome" remark coming)
Differences from this version?
I flashed it. Its just the stock android keyboard with multi touch. I'll keep my swype
Thanks anyways!

They got the Auto correct working. The only thing not working is the vibrate on touch. You guys should collaborate.. Thanks for the hard work...
I give this 12 hours before I merge with the other thread...in fact I might just move both of them to the Apps section

I don't think this counts as an app or theme. Its a PORT that needs continuing DEVELOPMENT to function 100%.
Anyways, the other one I tried made me have to restore because its only for deodexed ROMs. I don't wanna install a rom. I like stock. Will it make me have to restore again?
Ps, I know you said its on stock, butdo you mean the .tar stock or acs rom (which is also considered stock deodexed I think...idk lol)

Thanks for porting the app. Hopefully, all features will be working soon.
I'd say that with this new keyboard, all of the custom keyboards are now largely obsolete. It also renders the hardware keyboard less useful than before, although it's still useful (I'm using the hardware keyboard right now) for longer messages.

Per Swype's website, it says it won't work with phones that have this pre-installed.
Can anyone confirm?

More than likely this just means that you have to be in the swype beta and that your keyboard isn't going to automatically update.

I used Titanium backup to freeze the pre-installed swype then i just install the beta fine and everything works fine.
Tapping to text definitely feels nicer on the latest version of swype. The look of the suggestion bar is also vastly improved.

I think that's part of their Honeycomb-exclusive distro.
Also, be sure to uninstall your current version of Swype beta before installing the new one. If you run the installer while Swype 2.x is installed it will NOT update.
after i turned the phone off and turned it back on the swype started messing up and wouldn't open again i had to reinstall the old one to get it to work so idk

Weird, mine has been working all day. Even through a rom and kernel update. Maybe try fixing permissions.

So all I need to do is "uninstall" the stock Swype and then the beta will install?

Used Root Uninstaller to back up stock swype and uninstall it.
Installed the new one, so far so good, the horizontal suggest bar is a bit funky, and I lost my user dictionary!

[Q] Restoring Stock Keyboard

So I've looked around and haven't been able to figure this one out.
Basically, I flashed the new ICBINB ROM last night, which looks pretty good so far, but I *hate* the keyboard. I actually prefer the old 3X4 keypad with T9.
Is there any way to get the old Samsung keyboard back?
You could try ripping it out if a stock ROM. I'm not sure what it would be called though.
I'm curious, why don't you like a qwerty keyboard? It makes texting a whole lot more efficient than the 3x4 keypads.
Yeah I am not sure how to pull the stock keyboard out of a stock rom. Anyone have ideas?
I find the 3x4 much faster and I make many more mistakes on the qwerty pad.

Ah, ok. Didn't know that. But back to my question -- is there any way for me to install the old keyboard so I can set up 3X4 keypad or am I screwed?
It's almost a dealbreaker for an otherwise great looking ROM.

I don't think Swype BETA has the 3x4 keypad. I think that's only available in the stock Swype. Try ripping it out of one of the Froyo ROMs or the older GB ROMs. Those should probably have the old Swype.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

Stock ICS Keyboard Issue

Anyone else having problems with recorrection using the stock ICS keyboard? I thought it was working when I first installed it but doesn't seem to be the case anymore. On my Xoom or N1 running stock ICS, if I place my cursor back on a word I've previously typed it will bring back up the auto-correct suggestions, so you can choose the correct one (like if it didn't guess right). Most people familiar with the ICS kb are likely familiar with this feature.
Any feedback appreciated, this is one of the best features of the keyboard.
Edit: Forgot to mention, I've tried clearing the app data of the KB. No dice.

Apparently its been a really long week.... "recorrection" is only allowed in certain circumstances. I was not using it correctly. If a mod sees this, please close. Thanks.
is this keyboard better than the one from the market?
I've been using it since the guy posted it. I think it's just as good as the one from the market if not better. Reminds me I need to thank that guy...

The keyboard icon shows up when you have more than one available keyboard. That's how you choose which one to use.

On every other android phone I've owned you could have as many keyboards as you wanted enabled without annoying popup icons. It seems that icon is there no matter what keyboard you're currently using unless you disable them in the keyboards settings menu.

When Swiftkey 3 is released it will have a couple new themes called Cobalt (left) and Holo (right, ICS themed).
