Installing stock ICS keyboard? - HTC One S

I'm struggling to replace the keyboard on the One S with the ICS stock one.
Any ideas?

I did this yesterday when you install from market or takes a while to appear in settings for some reason but when it does it works fine.there's an option to get it to show you selection as you type just enable and its fine its all in the keyboard menu in settings. It's just looking at it different from stock ics or previous roms you've used

So you have to install an ICS keyboard port from Play? I thought the stock keyboard would be on the phone, just disabled somehow. Can you post a link to the one you used?

Just search ICS Keyboard on Play.. there's two or three and they are all basically the same.

G2 launcher2.apk for AOSP rom ONLY

Here is the froyo launcher2.apk from the G2 system dump. You must be rooted and uninstall stock launcher2 first via root explorer or titanium backup. I also suggest making a backup first. It runs smooth on my incredible. 7 home screens, 3D app drawer, etc. I figured i would make it easier for anyone who wants it. Just download then place on your SD Card and install. You do need to allow installation of apps from unknown sources in application settings first.
ONLY WORKS WITH AOSP ROMS

Its a really nice launcher but the phone icon says "Application not installed" and I found no way to fix that. Its useless to me without being able to access my phone
I'm sorry I don't know. It works perfect for me on cyanogenmod 6 and Ruby and ultimate Droid. I don't know what to tell you

No need to be sorry. My phone is back to stock 2.2. I'm waiting for a replacement cause I'm having major issues. I'm sure that's why it's not working. Thanks dude
I tried to use this on CM 6.0.2 and after I download it says I already have it installed. I really just want the 3D app drawer. Any idea?

I just installed this on my stock 2.2 incredible and almost everything works quite well. The only thing that doesn't work is the phone button on the launcher. When I select it I get a the message "Application is not installed on your phone". Not sure how to fix this. Anyone?

you need to long press the phone icon on the bar and when the menu pops up select "change shortcut" then select application and then click on phone and you should be good to go hope this helps you.
It's good tool. But I have only G7, hope yours can work correctly on my phone!
Thank you for sharing.
I've been looking forever for a stock froyo looking launcher that's more like the Nexus One. ADW is ok but I don't like the dock icons. The G2 launcher is perfect but I can't get the phone button to work on my Droid Incredible OTA 2.2 (Rooted). I've read through the post but havent seen any solution Long pressing on the phone button and changing the short cut doesn't work at all (read that in another post) SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!!!! I really like this launcher
Hey guys sorry for not replying sooner. Apparently this only works with AOSP roms (i.e. cyanogenmod, ruby, shadowrom) I'm updating the OP right now.

Darkslide dropped the stock keyboard when he updated the DS ROM which you can find here http://www.mydroidworld.com/forums/droid-x-roms/6155-darkslide-v4-2-a.html So all credit goes to him. I am just passing along the information to see if one of these will resolve your issue.
I attached the files here as well. To get to it you have to download the 4.2DS, extract it, and then look in the sdcard >> Darkslide >> Add-Ons folder and you will see 4 keyboards, Stock Keyboard, Stock Swype, Unthemed_Keyboard (which is a black multi-touch keyboard that works exceptionally when I was on Froyo) and a Gingerbread Keyboard.
All of these install in Clockwork and as always I would make a backup just to be sure and you can always roll back to your backup. When I was on Froyo these are the keyboards I used with various setups and never had any issues. Hope these help you out..
G thanks
Thank you so much. When I get home I'll give this a go! I appreciate all of your help!

1.85 and swype

Just curious if anyone has had a problem installing swype? I got the installer downloaded and after logging in and selecting the swype English keyboard u get an error saying unable to parse package.
I have tried downloading and reinstalling the package again but same error.
Anyone else having this problem?

Have you tried to download it on a PC and then transfer to the device ?
FWIW, I was able to restore my Swype installation from 1.72 with Titanium Backup Pro with out issue. I'm not sure if it would be "safe" to post my backup for others to install though (may have Swype account information in it, not sure).

Is the build in trace function junk? HTC keyboard has the ability to swipe.

I'm having the same issue...the Swype Beta website says to remove any associated apk's and try again in a few hours.
I downloaded a version from the net (attached below); it installed fine (the official installer recognized and approved it, too) but it was scaled down by about 2/3. Still functional, but too small to really use. I'm going to keep looking for it while I wait to retry through the official installer.

The HTC trace function works okay, but not nearly as intuitive and smooth as Swype. The biggest feature I miss is Swype's ability to correct words anywhere in the text body, not just at the time of typing a word.
So I wandered over to the gs3 forum and found the 720p swype extracted from a gs3. Here's the apk.
no need to thank me, thank the gs3 guys
I believe 1.82/1.85 rooting breaks the swype installer somehow... i had it back when I was stock. I still think they need to adjust this keyboard to have taller keys since the screen has so much room but this will do.
Thanks, Idealz...that worked well for me. Nice to have Swype back, the HTC version just doesn't stack up.
I am also not able to make the fmradio app show up in the app drawer, worked fine on 1.73. Any ideas?
Try flashing Clean ROM SE 2.6. It shows up for me.
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
Sorry guys, had to remove the links to the Swype apks. Apks for Swype aren;t allowed to be posted on the forums. You have to get it through signing up with Swype.
I suggest you try the "Trace" feature built into the HTC keyboard, I find it works just as good, if not better than Swype. I use it all the time.
The issue isn't with any on the ROMs. The problem is with Swype itself. I'm still on 1.73 and I get the same error. I saw someone posted that the file is missing on the Swype server (based on review of his logcat file). It sucks that Swype isn't rushing to fix this. The HTC version nor SlideIt can compare to Swype.

scotsman, I understand the reasoning behind this, and well, those are the rules.
But I want to point out that it is currently impossible to download for a lot of people, and Swype itself seems more interested in working on a new version than on solving this issue. I.e., I want to get it from Swype, but it is simply impossible.
*edit*
try touchpal, free in Google Play.
Is it just me cos I don't see any apk here.
I just downloaded the Swype installer from Swype.com

I would re-download it and try again, does the issue arise from flashing a zip or are you pushing it manually to /system/app?

FYI, one thing I've noticed about this zip is that it may install some apps in non-standard locations, such as gmail in system/app. Since this is different than other gapps packages (gmail is usually not included, so is installed via market to data/app), the CM backup script won't keep this from ROM flash to ROM flash unless you follow up with this app package flash again.

Anyone have any issues with the 4.2 Play store? I can't figure out why this is happening, but out seems only a handful of my apps are compatible. I had originally changed my LCD.density to 210, and then read that it had to be set to one of the non-custom numbers of 160 or 240, so I changed it to 160 (for fun), but it appears I have the exact same problem.
I never had an issue with the play store or apps requiring 160 or 240 (though I know some apps and games won't be compatible unless the LCD.density, the model, and manufacturer are changed in the build.prop file)... So the 160 or 240 setting seems incorrect.
Anyway, I have tried clearing data/cache for the play store, and the same thing for Google services framework (and reboot), but still have no change.
Could it be anything else in my build.prop file?
I am running Baked Black Bean (a JB 4.1.2 AOKP ROM).
Any thoughts or help are appreciated!

Don't like the keyboard. When I swipe, it wont show my swear words, such as ****, ****, ****, and so on, even though I saved the words to my dictionary. **** always shows as duck and I can never type ******. I will stick with Swype Hopefully Android will allow to swipe custom saved words in the future / official release.

(Q) Hand writing mode for Samsung keyboard

Higuys, can someone direct to the right link as to how to enable the handwriting feature of samsung keyboardfor N8000? Ive seen this mod in some custom roms like redemption or dr akrim's. Im currently using the latest stock version but didnt have that feature on. Appreciate any help.

When the kb pops up left of the space mine has a t with a pen next to it..I click that and it comes on..
Be aware you might also need to download the languge pack in settings. Go to settings>Language and input>Samsung Keyboard settings(little cog icon after samsung keyboard)>Input languages. Make sure the language you want has been downloaded and installed...
I also am having trouble getting this to work. I have no icon left of the space bar. I'm on 4.0.4 8013 model. Is this a Jellybean only feature?

No cuz I have jellybean (uk 8010) and I also dont have the pen icon altho I have the handwriting on in the keyboard settings.
Ok I figured it out. Press and hold the GEAR icon next to the left of the spacebar then you can choose the pen tool.
Yep, sorry should of mentioned that. In JB though you need to do what I said in my previous post on some stock roms.... Don't know why but it seems an oversight by Samsung to provide the feature but not have it active until you download the language pack and with no explanation on how to get it...
I went back to redemption rom after using the latest stock 4.1.1. But I cant seem to find it whereas in redemption rom, its there instantly.i wonder what language pack to dowmload as im just using english.
