Stock ICS Keyboard Issue - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

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.

where'd you get the keyboard

This guy pulled it from his GNEX: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25592151&postcount=7

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...

can some tell me how to change to stock keyboard?...I downloaded one from the market. I go to settings and I see the keyboard under the keyboard section...I select it, but it doesn't change the keyboard.

The kb icon on the top left, click on that and select your kb of choice

i love swiftkey because of the dedicated smiley button and sometimes i can type a whole sentence out with just a few taps. paid for that app and haven't looked back. wish they would make an ICS theme for it though.

So is there any way to get that little keyboard icon to go away when using keyboards other than the sense one?

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.

Some just like the looks of it. Less fuss so to speak. Doesn't have all the arrow keys for editing and moving around like the HTC Sense 2.2 keyboard does.
I use the Stock Froyo Keyboard which is similiar as well as Latin_IME MT(Sense).

what does the multitouch get you?
and how do you get the stock froyo keyboard, without the arrow keys?
Droid x is better imo because instead of just being able to "correct" the word you are typing, you can touch in ANY word you have in the message or wherever and it will show you the options you had... TIME SAVER!!!
works fine 4 me

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!

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)

Nevermind. I just said screw it andtried and it didn't give me the opion to choose the keyboard, just swype and samsung keypad were there, but I disabled swype and went to google search and the keyboard was there looking and responding great!

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.

Tried both and don't like either. For certain reasons i have been using Smart Keyboard. Just my opinion as I always have searched for the ideal KB with manual customization, enlarging buttons, increasing haptic, etc...
If swift has all of this, then maybe I didn't give it enough time however I don't like hopping around.

You can enlarge the buttons in smart keyboard? How? I would like to use the entire space so that the buttons actually are touching each other instead if having small spaces in between them.
I need a keyboard with arrow keys, so far smart keyboard is the only one that does the trick for me. Sense and GB keyboard both lack it
I actually use an old version of "shape writer" that is a non market app that I found either on xda or android central forums.
Easily the best swipe style keyboard I've ever tried. And I've tried a LOT

GB keyboard. i like the arrow keys.
Sorry for late reply. (SMART KEYBOARD).
Settings>general settings>key height(there you can manage height & width).
And if needed there is an option to pad the bottom of keyboard for "added lift ".
1 of the best features, are the addition of free skins in options. Just one tap and you can have almost any other keyboard variant.
Side note-Not sure if "pro version" varies as I only have this.

ICS Stock Keyboard on One X?

Anyone know if there is a way to install the stock ICS keyboard on the AT&T One X? In videos I've seen of the HOX, the built in keyboard looks dreadful...especially with those navigation arrows that take up the entire bottom row of the keyboard. I loved the stock ICS keyboard when I had the Galaxy Nexus so is it possible to install it?

I can vouch. I just installed it on my AT&T One X and it works 100%. So much better for me since it's similar to the iPhone like numbers, symbols, etc location being on the left side vs the right side.

I totally agree, this one is in my opinion even better. Out of the box the default vibration on keypress is a little strong but if gives you the option to lower the strength to be closer to the stock ICS keyboard.
In advanced settings I changed the timing from 100ms to 25ms and its perfect.

Bought it way back when they had it for 99cents, Definitely nice to see some new changes.
Does anybody else have a little keyboard symbol that pops up in the notification bar every time they type something with the SK keyboard? It goes away once you're done typing. Dragging the notification bar down shows that the symbol corresponds to "set input method." Clicking it takes you to the languages and input settings.
I've already configured all of that through SK. Any way to make it stop?
Thanks for the heads up on this. I've purchased both SwiftKey X for my Infuse and SwiftKey X Tablet for my HTC Flyer. In my opinion, it's one of the best Android keyboards out right now. I'll definitely give the beta a look.
Edit: Looks like the update is in the Play Store now and is free for those who paid for SK X. Sweet.
