Can't change the keyboard on HTC One X - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

I'm sorry if this has been asked already, but for the life of me I can't change the stock keyboard on my One X to a different on. I have downloaded a keyboard but can't find in the settings how to change it. This sense 4.0 is different then sense 3.6
Can someone give me detailed instructions on how to change the keyboard?

Where it always is: Settings ==> Language and Keyboard.
Typically the keyboard app you download will go over setting it up when the app is launched from your app drawer.

it took me a second to figure it out, too. start typing in any app. at the top will be a keyboard icon in the notification bar. drag down the drawer and touch "select input".
from there, you can change the keyboard.

HTC_IME for Nexus One [Pixelated Version]

http://drop.io/p12auxn#
I'm not 100% sure this is it since I don't have my Nexus One yet so I need someone willing to test.
I found it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0dFh9RKsN6w&feature=player_embedded
This is the same one that's pixelated on the Nexus One. Also, doesn't stretch the full screen in landscape mode.
It is still the pixelated version. That wouldn't even bother me that much if the correction bar on the top fit on the screen and wasn't horribly warped.
Damn sorry then. The one in the video looks good though.
do you need to be rooted for this? Because I tried it using an appinstaller. It shows up in the clicker, but when I create new messages, it reverts back to the stock google keyboard.
You have to go into the settings and enable it, then when you're in a message box click the box and hold, then select "input method". You can alternate between the 2.
haha ya i forgot to do the "hold" part in the message box. thanks!
pixelated...but at least i don't have to switch back n forth for numbers and punctuations. can't wait for the non-pixelated version w/ microphone key =)

We'll need a high-res 2.1 SenseUI device to come out - probably need to wait for a Bravo leak.
Yep, works fine on N1 running MCR1.1 but pixelated. Will have to live with that for a while as it still beats the hell out of the standard Android keyboard...
Is the file linked from youtube the same as this file?

So I emailed HTC to find out if they will update the htc_ime.apk so that it will work on the nexus or look properly I should say. I am currently waiting for a response... let you guys know when I get a reply. I will post it.

Ha good luck with that. They won't update it until they release a phone with the Hi-Res Sense UI.
Most likely we'll have to wait until a bravo dump is leaked or another sense UI device w/ a hi res screen's dump is leaked.
I'm running HTC_IME on the N1.... its great to have it back, only complaint is the lack of the dedicated 'microphone' key thats in the default keyboard... so AFAIK once you install HTC_IME you can NOT dictate text messages and the like
Does anyone know how to edit the dictionary for htc ime?
I don't know about editing words but you can erase it by going into your settings > applications > keyboard > clear data.
I installed this and it works great but my only issue-request would be to add more languages. The option is there, when you go to settings from inside the keyboard, but unfortunately, only english is available.
In the past, people have made language packs...could someone do on for this? pleeeeeeeease?
Thanks,
Lou
I used to change com.htc.android.htcime_preferences.xml file to enable dual language on my htc ime. I was wondering if this can be changed in the apk before installing. I dont want to root my nexus.
Thanks
Anyone have any idea what that task killer widget is he uses in the video? Basically its sitting on the homescreen and kills the tasks with one click, no need to open an app...

Stock Keyboard?

I was wondering if anyone had installed the stock android keyboard on their MT4G successfully?
I installed a custom HTC keyboard from gimpsta.com, but after selecting it as my keyboard in Settings, I still get the swype keyboard.

Long press on a text input field, e.g. browser field, message body field, email body field, etc, select "INPUT," then chose the keyboard of your liking. The Touch Input keyboard is HTC's, though, not default Android.
D'oh!
Thank you!! Works perfect.
The keyboard I am using is the HTC IME with a customized skin from gimpsta.com.
Works perfect. I like having my number keys all in a row, also mic input now an option and smiley emoticon button is there.

Thanks for this, I spent hours looking for this in settings. Do you know if its possible to download and install the "default" Android keyboard?

You can use smart keyboard pro which has the skin for the default android keyboard plus others like iphone,htc, and different colors for the default keyboard.

Easiest to check on the package, it is written there. I like anything based on GB RUU from August 1st. What I like the least are Runnymede ports
Install the app
Enable it on settings
Then long click on any text box > choose input mode and select the keyboard name

[Q] HTC keyboard problem after update Jelly Bean

Hello all,
After the update Jelly Bean on my HOXL (update OTA in Switzerland), my original HTC keyboard has a small problem or bug.
In fact, I am used to this keyboard and don't suggest other keyboards please, thanks for understanding. So, I use it in "Phone" type and always with option xt9.
Before - when I was typing a sms f.ex. in WhatsApp (mode xt9) and clicked on "send", the mode xt9 remained active.
Now - when I type a text message (mode xt9) and click "send", the mode will change to "ABC".
The result, for each ligne I must click on "xt9" --> it's pretty annoying.
Have you noticed the same problem? How to fix this bug to have the selected option "xt9" always active, as before with ICS ?
Thank you for your answers
Have you checked setting, language an keyboard then type?

Hi,
Yes of course, all options are well configured.
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda premium
Had to ask of course...
Have you chosen that keyboard from the toast notification that pops up when you go into a text entry field, an same result?
I don't know other then perhaps to go to options and clear the default app setting for HTC Sense input.
Back up your personal dictionary before clearing defaults just in case.

Everything you suggested is done, but notihing changed ....
It may turn out like other things in JB an has been removed by HTC like scrolling wall papers.
I don't have anything else to offer other then remove second party apps like Sms apps an testing it further.

[Q] Is there any way to modify keyboard size and layout [like LG G3]

Hey Guys,
Is there any way to modify the keyboard as LG G3's keyboard ? I want features like one handed use and flexible height for the keyboard.

It is possible if you are using one of the 3rd party keyboards such as Swype or SwiftKey
Thanks.

Thanks ... I opted for swiftkey
You can download the LG keyboard, I was using it on my s5. The link is somewhere here on xda
I'm in this same boat. So use to using a Note device with the keyboard shifted to the right that having it take up the entire screen looks crazy to me. I installed Swype but don't see it anywhere in the settings. Any suggestions how how to enable that? Thanks.
Update: Finally figured it out in Swype. Not intuitive at all, but to do it, it's Go to Settings, Themes, and then tap the gear at the top-right.
this way you can make your google keyboard as tall as you want https://goo.gl/g9mcEM
