im using Team EOS 3 (Stable release) and have a note 2 - the keyboard on the note 2 is fantastic as it has the numbers above the letters so i dont have to switch between letters and numbers when typing.. is there anything like this on the xoom?

in case you guys miss out the xda portal:
the Thumb Keyboard 4.0 - Beta is relesed which works amazing on the galaxy tab.
here the link for the thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056976
it types way faster then the standaard or swype keyboard!!!!
best settings after testing 20 30 times:
press and hold the setting button and change the layout to 7inch layout and the first one (layout1)
feedback = all checked (vib.strength 14MS)
height spacebar row = 75%
height cursor keys row= 74%
voice recognition= on capital keyboard
auto capitalization
auto-period
word suggestion= all checked
All I can say is wow, this is the best keyboard layout for the galaxy tab so far.

I noticed the click sound to be falling behind a bit when i type. Might be my tab lagging though, but i do run a tight ship (minimal background stuff going on) and have not experienced this with better keyboard, or the older version of thumb keyboard for that matter. Love the themes though. Cant wait for this to be as stable as the old version. Till then, im on better keyboard, as i seldom type in landscape anyways. Might i suggest a Tron-ish theme?

I'm using the Swiftkey X Keyboard and sometimes the SlideIT Keyboard.
I love both keyboards and i couldnt get a decision which is better.
Try it!
Thumb and a.I. keyboard

I use Swype but have tried all the above mentioned on smaller screens...still can't make up my mind which is better though...
Keep switching between swift key and thumb keyboard myself. Slide it is also really nice.

Swype...
Awesum

Swype is great after mastering the short learning curve!
SlideIT is the best for me
Patos via tapatalk.
For people like me that often write in more than one languange (English and Spanish for example) SwiftKey Tablet X (or Swiftkey X) is simply the best keyboard for any device because you don't have to keep switching languages while you type, it auto detects and corrects on any language (up to three) at the same time!
I did read that there are not many themes and for Spanish are some issues with ñ character, any comments?
Both really stop my buy.

True. Once you get a hang of it, nothing can best swype

Is it possible with Swiftkey to use it only with particular apps? The default one to stay as primery and to use Swiftkey only with specific apps?

I installed touchpal, and seems like it is not scaled properly, i.e., the keys are sided to the left, instead of taking up all the horizontal span, can you tell me how to make it take up all the space? Plus, it also seems when pressing on a word that wasn't in the dictionary doesn't bring up the option to save it, can you point me to the solution(s)? Thanks ps: I'm using ics build from the chinese leak...

You can use any keyboard you have installed. Touch and hold anywhere in the writing area and choose your preferred input method. It will remain until you change it again in the same way.
Im using kingdroid rom and the keyboard came with the rom, try to swap rom...

I'm using imilka's AOSP rom, and I have the same problem with TouchPal. But I have to mention that I have the tablet interface and I changed the display density. And I'm guessing that's causing the problem! So I was wondering if you've changed the display density too? I really like TouchPal but I can't use it with the keys sided to the left!

Swiftkey 3 is out of beta and 50% off at the moment.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.touchtype.swiftkey
I've been using the beta for about a month and love it (smaller keyboard footprint and better word prediction than Swype that I have been using for 2 years).
But I just switched over to the new Swype beta as it has a keyboard almost as small as the swiftkey and pretty good word prediction (though not as good as Swiftkey).
I did buy Swiftkey3 still, just to have available if Swype doesn't get any better.
I was using swiftkey X since i got my first android phone last year. The word prediction is awesome. Will buy the app later to support the devs
It just great. Spell check for three languages at the same time. Just what I needed.

I also purchase this swiftkey 3. But the most accurate keyboard for me is Perfect Keyboard Pro.

On ICS, Swiftkey 3 Tablet (i.e.the Tablet version of the keyboard) does work on our Notes but at the moment we don't get the handy split-screen keyboard in landscape mode that tablets get. This has to do with the way devices are classified in ICS.

If you bought Swiftkey X before, you'll get a free upgrade to Swiftkey 3.
Tried it but thumb keyboard still tops for me with split layout

I consider buying swiftkey pro after reading the possitive comments on google play store and three language recognation is also very tempting to me. Do u guys think swiftkey is much better then swype ? I'm really used to swype n i wonder if swiftkey is worthy compared to swype ? Does swiftkey also support swype input just like swype keyboard does ? Which version do u recommend ? The tablet version or regular phone version ?
EDIT: I try to download the trial version first but both tablet and regular version gives me this error : Error while attempting to process the purchase [DF-BPA-09]
EDIT 2: I cleaned google play store app cache and restarted to fix market issue and now i can run trial version on my gnote so i take back all my questions
The best keyboard out there for me, it automatically recognizes if I type English or portuguese, for that alone I give it 5 stars
Oh and I do get the split keyboard in landscape mode on CM9

swift key function's well buy Perfect Keyboard has more themes though I do admit it doesn't recognise spacing errors as well as swift key but overall Perfect has the whole package. Maybe when Swift Key has more theme options ill like it.

I can type faster using Swype. Even faster if I use the S Pen.
But I switched to the Swiftkey 3 beta because the old Swype keyboard was too big on the Note. Swiftkey was the best sized keyboard I found that I could still type pretty fast on with little need for correction.
Now that the new Swype beta is about the same size as Swiftkey set to small size, I'm back using that as I can type the fastest with that.
The new Swype beta feels like a combination of the old Swype and Swiftkey to me.

Hey,
I'm using now SwiftKey 3 ... before it was released I'd prefered Smart Keyboard Pro ... because I cannont handle Keyboards without a little bit of space between the buttons.
regards,
mmry
Thanks I will have a look and try those, I dont see the point of some of the keys like the arrows at the bottom it just seems too crowded for me
It's a toss up between the new swift keyboard and slideit for me... Also Used A. I. Keyboard with no problems, but for sure tons of options
STOCK AOSP ICS keyboard is the best! Get it in the market if you are using sense rom.

Found a great solution for autocorrect using the physical keyboard. Touchpal keyboard just came out in February of this year and works wonderfully with the physical keyboard. Autocorrect works, as well as input with spacebar, and selecting the next word by using the number row. It's also free. I can't post links yet, so just search for it in the playstore.
I was wondering when that keyboard would come back. Was a good keyboard several years ago

Hello my friends. I really liked touchpal especially that "row number" option you get when the spell options appear. It's really a usefull functionality for me because I use the physical keyboard aswell. The problem is...since i'm Portuguese the keyboard layout gets all messed up!! I tried using other apps like Swift and Ultra and they work really fine 'cause they let you change the key layout but they don't have the "row number" option so every time I want to correct I have to tap the screen... That's not an option because my language as a lot of accents and stuff like that...
Is there some way to change the key layout on touchpal or is there a way to select the spell options in Swift or Ultra using the physical keyboard?
Please help... I'm really frustrated, and I feel that when I'm getting really close to solving this something just goes terrible wrong!! xD
Thank you for the help
