I don't mind it, but I hate how they shrunk down the keys. It was much easier typing on the froyo keyboard

See my thread
Download from Steve Lin his free gingerbread keyboard.
Install program called anycut if you don't have it.
Access anycut. Open it and lookup activity and select the first listing that says gingerbread keyboard. It opens up button size settings or the keys. Check.it out you may like it.

First make a backup Copy the latin.ime from system/app for the Froyo keyboard and copy and paste into the same location on your GB rom. Make sure permission is exactly as it was with the GB keyboard. Reboot and pray, if not you can restore back to where it was. Although in theory that should work

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

Thanks buddy! Thits what I get for not digging deep enough in the settings. I got too dazzled by the swipe features and missed out in that option-- it's totally what I wanted. What stock Froyo keyboard? :]
is it possible to get some features like multitouch etc from the Gingerbread keyboard? or maybe use the Gingerbread keyboard but modify it so the interface looks exactly like this one?
I really love the HTC_IME, but I can't make it work with HD2One with "lcd_density=200".
Could you help me ?
I think the keybord doesn't feat the resolution
I have this on my G2 and has there been an update to fix the bug that automatically capatalize the 2nd letter when using the physical keyboard?

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.

I was unaware of this bug, not sure how I'll test it without physical keyboard, but I know Jonasl has left behind some code for debugging physical keyboard problems. I'll look into it tonight.

I'm checking it out right now,... I dont have the CM7 nightly anymore I'm on the GB 2.3.3 leak but regardless I"m gonna play with it.
Also you shouldn't need to zip it, you can just drop right into the directory and run.
It installs but keeps fc

I didn't spend any time trying to fix this but I can tell you that it will need it's lib file for that keyboard. (libjni_latinime.so) I think the would be the one as I did a very fast search. Also CM7 might have a lib file by the same name but has different code.
I don't think adding that lib will make it work though as I am sure it will need fixed to work on CM7 if it will at all.

I really want this keyboard!
So I believe its on the stock rom 2.2.1, at least it is on my Galaxy s 4g. If I go into contacts I can swype right across a contact and it auto calls them or swype left and it opens a new message/text for them.
I love this feature and miss it in the EB GB rom, is there a way to flash the original froyo contact apk or some other way to get this feature back?
Not a deal breaker for me I love the EB GB rom especially now that I have my GPS working on it, but again I would love to have this feature back.

So I've been trying some of the many new ROMs we've seen lately. I've read through the bug reports and searched around cannot find anyone else having this issue. I install Swype Beta on every ROM and usually it works fine. However on some of the new ones it randomly won't want to swipe anymore. It starts acting like a normal keyboard. It worked just fine on the CM rom port Alpha 6. But it messes up on the recent Miui and the new Mik Sense v0.4 or something along those lines. Is this swypes fault or the ROM? should I reinstall one or the other?
I've had the same issues with Mik Sense v0.4. It might be a multi-touch thing because I was having similar issues with other apps.
I have the same issue intermittantly on CM9 and JB using FlexT9. The added dimension is that voice to text won't work either when the swype typing is jacked. When the swype typing is OK so is voice to text.
Hastily spouted for your befuddlement
I vaguely recall having issues with getting the default keyboard to work when removing swype from bulletproof - doubt that info helps, but it did cause a headache on a modified stock gingerbread build.

I think you're dead on with the multi-touch issue. It only happens if I've been pecking the keyboard instead of swiping. For instance, if I type half a text by just pressing letters then try to swipe, it wont work. But then after the screen is inactive awhile it goes back to working. So now I'm guessing it's the rom itself?
On Sense ROMS there is a really cook function called trace. It uses the Stock KB but allows you to swype around to text.
My opinion is Swype sucks, it always has and always will*Please don't flame for my opinions. Anyways trace won't help on AOSP but it will sure fix the Sense issue.
I'm not thinking its due to multitouch at all, we always had issues on the HTC EVO Shift not wanting to swype for us after a few so once we all learned about what HTC provided in the keyboard settings we all loved it.

Could you elaborate on this trace a little? I've been running sense and never even heard of it. I really liked the ROM besides me not being able to use swype. If this is an adequate replacement I'm definitely up for testing it out.
