Hi buddies,
now a small poll: what's ur favorite input method and why?
T9? Swype? TouchPal(most popular input method in WM)?
Swype FTW!!!
swype its so fast
I just like the android froyo keyboard. Not really a fan of the gingerbread one.

Hi,
I'm about to order an Xperia X10, but i really hate using software keyboards (QWERTY).
Is there any way i can install/replace the QWERTY keyboard with a T9-keypad type input method like the one on my HTC Touch HD?
cheers in advance
Better Keyboard has a compact qwerty, and i`m pretty sure a T9 style as well. You might want to check out the leaked WVGA HTC_IME, it is considered by many to be the best soft keyboard available on android.
i found the HTC IME, it looks great. I havent recieved my phone yet, i'm wondering if its as easy to replace the IME on android as it is on Windows Mobile. I.E. will it feel hacked on or "native"? thanks
Changing input methods is supported natively.
Hey guys.
I have 2 main questions...
1: I can't get alternative keyboards to work (I've tried ShapeWriter) I can "check" it so it's my chosen keyboard, but whenever I go to type anything, it just shows me the standard Android keyboard. Is this because I'm on a VGA screen? (Diamond)
2: Is Swype coming to Android for VGA screens?
Thanks for the replies!
Well I figured out how to get ShapeWriter working, but the copy of Swype I downloaded isn't working for me. I didn't know you had to hold down (rclick essentially) the text box to switch the input mode, but since i've done that, I have fallen in love with ShapeWriter... It's the same concept as Swype, but if I can get swype working, I'm sure I'ld switch to that.
ShapeWriter (free in the market) rocks... It could use a little larger dictionary with some common abreviations, and a little text speak. It doesn't even have lol in its dictionary!
But adding words is as simple as you can imagine. This keyboard is far better than the stock one...
bwahah
if you want swype(which i use on ALL my roms) google swype for mytouch3g
if not i know a warez site with it lol
I tried using the gingerbread keyboard. Very nice indeed.
My question is:
Does the gingerbread keyboard implement the BlindType technology Google recently bought. I am thinking not; since i tried a little and didn't see much difference.
But anybody have info on that?
Another question. Is the Swype keyboard still and option?
Swype is completely separate from the Gingerbread keyboard (or any other keyboard), and you can have as many different keyboards installed at once as your phone has space for. I have 4 or 5 keyboards, including Swype, on my phone.
I have Hyper Nonsense and it comes with the stock keyboard. Converted from InsertCoin, I'm sorely missing the Swype/touch input, and the Swype keyboard by itself is so-so.
Is there a modded version of the stock keyboard out there with the Swype type option, coz that'd be cool...?
Hello guys,
I am using the MIUI V5 Rom since 4 days and I am very happy of it. Very fast, very stable, only minor issues (like Facebook app doesn't connect) but I'm getting frustrated with the Keyboard.
I love the layout and the colors of the Sogou Input Keyboard included in MIUI, but unfortunately, there is no language pack of any kind for it. I can live without word prediction, auto-filling etc. but I cannot live without special characters like "è" "à" "ù" and so on (I am Italian).
After trying many keyboards the one that feels almost like that one is A.I. Keyboard, but, I want the MIUI one!
So here's my request: is it possibile to include special characters in the MIUI Keyboard? How it can be done? I would do it myself, but I don't even know where to start.
Please give some advice.
Thank you!
TouchPal keyboard

There is a keyboard called TouchPal keyboard that has a skin of MIUI you should try it, is very good
Thank you, I have tried it and it is a very good keyboard. Now I'm sticking on a mod of AOSP keyboard that is very iPhone style, but quite good.
