OK now, your title got me searching. This is what i found -
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=Gingerbread Keyboard XDA
The first one is the one you want. LOOKS SO GODDAMN AWESOME WITH MY BLACK DESIRE S !!!!!!!!!!!!
PS - swype SUCKS. Big time. As for swift key, it's just an iOS keyboard rip-off.
Been using 'keyboard from Android 2.3' app by Steven Lin, work fine on the desire S. I also dislike the htc keyboard and hoping one day I can turn the desire s into stock android...

Well... Don't like the keyboard out of the box neither Android keyboard . Personally using Better keyboard 8. And one more thing : got Nexus S few days back and "hate pure " Android - soon ugly. The HTC Sense is the best UI (my opinion) ...

Hi. I switched to the Froyo unofficial release about two weeks ago. One thing that i've noticed is that the keyboard for 2.2 blows. Is there anyway to get the 2.1 keyboard back? Or does anyone know of a better alternative one (preferably free)?

This. The HTC one is the best. I love how you can adjust the delay for the popups...makes typing numbers super fast with a 100ms delay.
I like the Cymod7 ROM so far. But, I don't like this keyboard. Anyone know where to find the one that all Android Revolution and the HTC stock ROM offer?
I'd appreciate getting my hands on that.
this is the best keyboard by far i have found....huge amount of customization and the ability to back/restore the settings and dictionary is amazing. Use v27, high res, froyo version.

I've used this on CM7 and I'm currently using it with MIUI. Just make sure you install clicker_hi.apk first.

This is the exact keyboard I've been using on cyan 7. It's the stock HTC keyboard but doesn't have the arrows I don't think.
Thanks. I'll give it a whirl. I'm trying to get the best ROM option figured out for my Inspire 4G.

Thanks a lot. This is perfect except for the lack of arrow keys. If we could get a version that has the arrow keys on CM7, I would be completely satisfied.
Download SwiftKey X beta. It's available in the market and is my favorite since switching to CM7. I also missed the stock HTC keyboard and this is the closest one to it since it has the arrows available.

Did you use Jonasi's posted in the Nexus One theme section. I haven't tried but his has worked on every phone I've owned.
^^tried those versions as well and they just don't start at all.
Still have yet to get it working with a few modifications. Anyone?

There is an HTC keyboard kitchen at:

You can cook up your own customized HTC Keyboard. Just be sure to choose v27-optimus-2x when asked for a version number. I built a cyan and blue keyboard with 3d shaded buttons last night and it's working great. Good stuff...give it a try.

What about the keyboard warning, collecting data.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
thanks. this kb is the best to date!
tried swype, smart kb pro, swiftkey, gingerbread kb, and ics kb...... none compare to this htc kb and its functions.
Hello all,
Is their a better keyboard for this phone? I really dont like the ones it comes with. Also what about the spell checker? Is that part of the keyboard program?
What ones are you using?
Thanks
join the swype beta.
http://beta.swype.com
Once you go Swype, you never go back.
If you don't like Swype style, try the Gingerbread keyboard on the Market.
Smart keyboard
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App
I've always liked the Gingerbread kb! But, Smart is also cool...
I only use swype when I only have 1 hand available, but I mainly use gingerbread keyboard pro from market cause I can make the spacebar super big on it (I normally miss it when it's small lol)

Is there a keyboard where you could turn the phone sideway and it shows you the keyboard as well as the screen? I don't like how it only shows you the keyboard.

Better Keyboard 8. I previously used it with the I/O skin & it could splitscreen.
Smart Keyboard FTW.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App
I tried all the rest, used Swype for a year, then switched to SwiftKey. Best keyboard hands down. You won't regret it. Free beta on the market.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
For me and for now I use the flext9, which is powered by dragon. But I already paid for it a while ago. But I suggest use what others have already said. Try the beta swype for yourself and see if you like it. I have used swype and would get pissed at it when it got buggy...yes I know its a beta , but I would go to another kb. The GB kb is great for a plain jane kb, also, swiftkey X beta works well too.
If I were you, I would try all the free versions of kbs, starting with the most popular to what you like and narrow it down from there.
Smart Keyboard Pro. I've had it since my Nexus one days, and it's still the best.
Thanks everyone, I will check them all out after work today.
I wouldnt mind also trying a new browser, any suggestions? I know a little bit of whats out there but still learing.
Thanks again everyone.
only swype ... still best //
SwiftKey is the nuts. I think it's made from actual magic

You would think hTC stock keyboard would have arrows for this mighty screen
Swype FTW I never had a keyboard where I could type that fast.

ive heard a lot of good stuff about swift but i feel like my fingers r to fat for it so i make mad mistakes and i theres no option to turn auto-capitalization off?
SwiftKey is very good at predicting text even with fat fingers
As far as the browser goes, I prefer opera.

I'm not one for stock keyboards, but this thing is amazing so far.
Before I load a custom ROM, anyone know where I can get a zip of this so I can reinstall it later on?
you will still have Sense keyboard if you flash a custom ROM, Except from AOSP ROMs. But the keyboard isnt compatible with them anyway

Awh.
I planned on flashing to CM9 once it became more stable, and I believe that is an AOSP rom.

I had to use an iPhone keyboard for about 2 months after my mytouch4G broke, so maybe it's easily impressed coming from the iPhone keyboard
this is the worst keyboard ever.
ICS STOCK or swiftkey is the only way
yeah, just get the latest SwiftKey beta (it's free):
http://vip.swiftkey.net/index.php?/topic/4281-30th-may-update-to-swiftkey-3-beta/
and forget you ever used Sense one.

Not a fan of Swiftkey honestly.
I really do like the Sense keyboard. Leaps and bounds better than the stock ICS keyboard or any of the other flavors. Just my opinion though
I like the sense kb...better at typing than swype but you can still swype words when you want.

Agreed. It's funny, I like the arrows on other keyboards, but the magnifying glass selection popup window is awesome and kinda negates the need for it.

try this one https://play.google.com/store/apps/...yLDEsImNvbS52bGx3cC5pbnB1dG1ldGhvZC5sYXRpbiJd
Im a big fan of AI keyboard.. has pretty nifty features. (Paid app is worth it imo)
But has a free version too.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aitype.android.p
I actually like the sense keyboard, but the voice button bugs the crap out of me. I hit it constantly.
I personally really like the Sense Keyboard.
Dont know if all ICS-Keyboards have Swype, but thats the best thing about it.
Normally when writing I switch to Landscape, but I always touch the "Back" or "Home" Buttons ...
I guess no alternate Keyboard can fix that ^^
Like I said, I like the Keyboard and I will stay with a ROM which atleast got that Keyboard somehow implemented ... or atleast Swype ^^
I love the HTC keyboard. I have swipe and swiftkey installed and have only used them once. HTC did a great job on it in my opinion.
Yea the keyboard is nice and better than swype in my opinion hell it even recognizes slang and curse words

Calibrating the keyboard improved my accuracy:
