Thumb keyboard

This is a must try app. I've tried every keyboard there is and this is my favorite. It has 27 themes, several different layouts including some split ones. I download the tablet version and it really is awesome on the note. Give it a try if you haven't yet
From the Beast : Galaxy Note

+1 for Thumb Keyboard - if you want a quick typing experience on your huge screen, this is the way to go! I've been using it ever since on my 1st Android device till now and has recommended it to every person.

This has always been my keyboard of choice for tablets and it is now my keyboard of choice for the Note. Although there still seems to be a bug that double clicks some letters when you only click them once. Not sure why that happens but its been on going for over a year. Maybe its just how i type

bought this for my tablet
I bought this for my newly squired (el cheapo) tablet. It is a godsend. I hated typing on that thing, and now it is easy. I used to have to use a USB keyboard, but now I can use the screen when required.
I love the ability to change the layout on orientation, and to up the height of the spacebar row, since my (el cheapo, did I mention that?) tablet is unresponsive on the bottom edge making the stock keyboard impossible to use in landscape. This one solved that magnificently

[Q] Alternate (samsung maybe) keyboard?

Hi all,
Running Cyanogenmod 9 nightlies (Currently March 25 version) and all is working well.
One thing though is I really prefer the onscreen keyboard on my Galaxy Nexus over the one on the transformer. Specifically, I like how the top row of buttons on the Samsung has long-press for numbers.
I can't seem to find any other keyboards marked as being ICS compatible after searching here.
Does anyone know if there is the Samsung keyboard available for install on the TF101, or another one, or something I can do to tweak mine to get the desired functionality?

Have you tried Swype keyboard?
It's friggin amazing. I like it with auto-correction turned off though.
It has numbers in the top row that can be long-pressed.

hackers keyboard ftw.

problems with the 2-parted keyboard

Hey i just got my new note 10,1
When i saw it had the posibility to chsnge the keyboard to a 2 part i was very happy...
But when i use that keyboard it dosent work right...
Example when i press the M key i got C insted and so on.. some keys is correct, but i can't find the solution to the problem
Can anybody help ?
With the two other keybords everything is fine

I happened to realise that typing is much harder on the split keyboard but i didnt notice that it was registering my inputs wrongly so im not sure about that. I tot it was just my fingers and the over-zealous autocorrect.
If its really a bug, we can only wait for a software update.
Anyone else?

no problems at all on my note... (language settings are on german input)

Sammy keyboard hints:
1. I have German and English keyboard activated plus T9 word proposals and switch back and forth depending in which forum I post :laugh:
Sumtimes accidently I switch to English or forget to switch back when I type German and THEN it´s a mess .............................
Word prediction is even more messy and unusable when You use the FLOATING keyboard.
Solution: before You get angry or You have no patience to train word prediction switch word prediction off (which I did) or set to have predictions only after 3 or 4 or 5 characters typed (settings!)
I have to admit Swiftkey is much better in this concern but not available as floating for Note 10.1
2. Split keyboard works nicely when word prediction is off. You might have the impression that keys respond wrongly but it´s the word prediction that types the wrong letters.
3. Either I am too clumsy or did not get it right but the change between the three types of keyboards with two fingers hardly works for me instantly. I always produce a lot of funny text until I get it switched ............... :laugh:
Maybe there is a tip from our fellows here to get the change precisely ......................
Summary: play around in keyboard settings and find Your personal settings that satisfy You .......................

@troed Thanks for the tip!
Didnt realise that the i could go into the sub-options under 'predictive text'. Awesome!

Maybe THIS thread could also be of help to You:

There are a lot of "hidden" features, tweaks and settings that make the Note10.1 life wonderful
Takes some time to work through but it´s worth it......... :good::highfive::laugh:
Greetings to Singapore !

[Q] Swype keyboard

Well, I'm here because I have a doubt. I have read in different forum and in different topic a lot of discussion about this type of keyboard input!
And in many (not in all) custom ROM there are no Swype keyboard already installed; for example in C7 or C10.1.
So the question is: what is the best Swype Keyboard for Galaxy FIT ?
(At the moment i have noticed 3 possibilities: Swiftkey, Swype (dragon), and original swype of Galaxy FIT)

Are there even ANY good keyboard besides GBoard and SwiftKey?

So I HATE GBoard with a passion. It does the job if you only write in English but if you also write in other languages it is a complete nightmare that makes zero sense and I feel like no localization team tested Gboard at all because the stuff it writes makes no sense and breaks simple language rules that are VERY VERY easy to program. In short: Gboard sucks big time.
Now if you ask on the net what keyboards are good you only get TWO answers: GBoard and SwiftKey. I feel like there aren't even any other keyboards around anymore. To put it short: I am also NOT happy with SwiftKey for several reasons (I can not find a cogwheel to change any options on the keyboard itself like I can on Gboard. There is also NO way to enable a keyboard that also has ö,ä,ü keys, a feature Gboard and other keyboards also do...that's just a few of those things I hate about Swift key).
So are there ANY other keyboards that are actually good for typing because all I have found so far is stuff like "EMOJI KEYBOARD!!! SUPER COOL NICE SKINS!!!111" I have been googling this for 3 years now, reading threads, asking at places but I haven't found ANY other keyboard to this very day.
I am using a Xioami Mi A1, I know I can not install a Samsung keyboard on it because of a different frame work but maybe SOME third party keyboard (HTC or whatever) got ported or something for this device or ported for any Android device? Thanks a lot in advance.
Typing on this phone makes me so angry that I am considering to even buy an iPhone (which are overpriced and don't let you navigate and create folders...why does everything have to be sh't?!)
Edit: also what nobody seems to understand (at least when I read keyboard guides) it is ALL about the text prediction and how a keyboard understand a language but everyone just talks about how you can change the colour of a keyboard or add a number row...
Example: Gboard turns EVERY verb into a noun (Capital letter) after a Personal Pronoun which makes no sense. There will NEVER be a noun after a Personal Pronoun, it will be a verb which will be written with a small letter but I always have to correct this because the retards at google can not even code such a simple thing.

given the amount of amazing replies I got here I would guess the answer is: NO, there are only 2 keyboards out there for android.
Amazing!

Buy a Samsung phone if keyboard is everything in your life. Samsung has its own keyboard app for its devices and works nice and smooth.

It's the only keyboard I like. Have a S4+ and the Note 10+, the keyboards are near identical and easy to use with a fair number of options.
Samsung also is the most customizable stock Android and the includes the keyboard colors.
