Hi everybody, i just bought a n5 and before n5 i use evo 3d and its keyboard awesome i think im very usual to it. can anybody port htc ime for nexus 5 pls thank you now (sorry for bad english)
This will be pretty difficult because as far as I know the HTC Keyboard relies on some Libaries from HTC Sense which is not open source. So you would have to port these Libs to Stock Android which is difficult without the source code. I had an Evo 3D too and I hated that Keyboard. Try some other Play Store Keyboards (I am using Swiftkey for example). There is a Sense 6 Rom in Development right now (NexSense), but it is a very early alpha with many functions not working.
I think there are some HTC like Keyboards in the playstore too.
EDIT: You can try this port if you want (don't know if it works): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1844512
Yeah that's right. On the desire, the HTC ime required nothing but from around the time of the sensation, it became framework dependant. I missed the HTC ime so much on my S3, I tried every keyboard on play to find one close to it. Smart keyboard was the closest I found and used it on my n5 too up to about a week ago. The prediction isn't great and it wore me down after about a year but it's worth a try

will definately give swiftkey beta a try! thanks
or you could try SWYPE keyboard (thats also black) I use this and I think that it's magic!

Or you could search for Gingerbread Keyboard in the market... It's virtually identical to the stock keyboard.

OK now, your title got me searching. This is what i found -
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=Gingerbread Keyboard XDA
The first one is the one you want. LOOKS SO GODDAMN AWESOME WITH MY BLACK DESIRE S !!!!!!!!!!!!
PS - swype SUCKS. Big time. As for swift key, it's just an iOS keyboard rip-off.
Been using 'keyboard from Android 2.3' app by Steven Lin, work fine on the desire S. I also dislike the htc keyboard and hoping one day I can turn the desire s into stock android...

Well... Don't like the keyboard out of the box neither Android keyboard . Personally using Better keyboard 8. And one more thing : got Nexus S few days back and "hate pure " Android - soon ugly. The HTC Sense is the best UI (my opinion) ...

Hello all,
Is their a better keyboard for this phone? I really dont like the ones it comes with. Also what about the spell checker? Is that part of the keyboard program?
What ones are you using?
Thanks
join the swype beta.
http://beta.swype.com
Once you go Swype, you never go back.
If you don't like Swype style, try the Gingerbread keyboard on the Market.
Smart keyboard

I've always liked the Gingerbread kb! But, Smart is also cool...
I only use swype when I only have 1 hand available, but I mainly use gingerbread keyboard pro from market cause I can make the spacebar super big on it (I normally miss it when it's small lol)

Is there a keyboard where you could turn the phone sideway and it shows you the keyboard as well as the screen? I don't like how it only shows you the keyboard.

Better Keyboard 8. I previously used it with the I/O skin & it could splitscreen.
Smart Keyboard FTW.

I tried all the rest, used Swype for a year, then switched to SwiftKey. Best keyboard hands down. You won't regret it. Free beta on the market.

For me and for now I use the flext9, which is powered by dragon. But I already paid for it a while ago. But I suggest use what others have already said. Try the beta swype for yourself and see if you like it. I have used swype and would get pissed at it when it got buggy...yes I know its a beta , but I would go to another kb. The GB kb is great for a plain jane kb, also, swiftkey X beta works well too.
If I were you, I would try all the free versions of kbs, starting with the most popular to what you like and narrow it down from there.
Smart Keyboard Pro. I've had it since my Nexus one days, and it's still the best.
Thanks everyone, I will check them all out after work today.
I wouldnt mind also trying a new browser, any suggestions? I know a little bit of whats out there but still learing.
Thanks again everyone.
only swype ... still best //
SwiftKey is the nuts. I think it's made from actual magic

You would think hTC stock keyboard would have arrows for this mighty screen
Swype FTW I never had a keyboard where I could type that fast.

ive heard a lot of good stuff about swift but i feel like my fingers r to fat for it so i make mad mistakes and i theres no option to turn auto-capitalization off?
SwiftKey is very good at predicting text even with fat fingers
As far as the browser goes, I prefer opera.

Why htc keyboard dosen't work correctly with official Twitter app on Sense UI 3.5?
Problem is with 'prediction' and 'spell correction'.
Peep/Friend Stream sux.
HTC keyboard sucks. Use Smart Keyboard Pro. /thread
Use Swype, even better
I was hoping that there's a fix.
I do not have working Swype with Sensation.
Anyway thx for replies
Swype works fine with the Sensation, I'm using it
I think it's a bug in the test 2.3.5 RUU, should get sorted come release
I find htc keyboard to be the best
The bilingual prediction is priceless

I believe not, sorry.
Try asking in the MIUI Q&A's thread.
Actually, there is.

Download the high resolution froyo one, unzip the file, and install both the files in the zip. Enjoy
Thanks bro worked... I love this keyboard

My bad,
no excuses for having to search it for you tho.
might install that myself now.
If the HTC Sense keyboard is buggy on MIUI, I suggest Smart Keyboard Pro. Although it is a paid app (1.99 I believe), it allows customization of skin (Including HTC Sense, Android, iPhone, Galaxy, etc.) key resizing, vibration density and much more.
Hey all,
I've tried all of the keyboards on the play store (at least the free ones) and the only one that is good enough is Slide it but both the free and paid stop working after few hours. I also tried the stock keyboard and it's even better. So my request is if anyone has an apk or even the stock rom with Hebrew keyboard please share XD
Thanks, Itamar.

Hi,
I'm using the paid Slide it for long time now even before my ONE S.
It never stuck on me...
