Gboard delay? - OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers

Anyone notices that Gboard is actually responding pretty slowly when you type? I had iphone as well and the response is not on par, much much slower on Oneplus. I cannot seem to type properly because it will hit or miss so often where on iphone it regs everytime. I know cannot compare, and I actually been using oneplus since Oneplus 3, nevertheless performance wise on this beastly device is simply unacceptable to me.
You have any other alternatives?

Same Happens to me. Even an other keyboard doesnt Help. But what helps us to deactivate haptic feedback

Ghosts is fine, no lag at all

I hate this phone for typing but that's it, I'd rather have occasional rage at the keyboard (I've tried 3 different apps) and love everything else about the phone than have tons of glaring issues like every other phone I've had personally.

Not much. Only swiping now. The type is just frustrated

Could not have said that better myself, it looks better to and the long press on the smilies is nice too
It doesn't have a voice-input button on it, does it? If not, that's a deal breaker for me.

I am the Senior QA Engineer at Swype. A voice-input button is a sorely missing feature for us too. We are looking at what it would take for us to integrate a feature like that, but we don't have any time frame for when that might happen yet. If you would like to see that feature developed more quickly, please give us feedback on the Swype Forums.

i received the email and clicked the link from my phone but it doesn't recognize my device as an Android device. is this because i'm not using the Stock Nexus One ROM (e.g., i'm using a custom ROM)? thanks in advance for your answer.
Oh they made typing in landscape easier... Or more so better. I like it, and I never exactly hated it either.
Oh it seems they made typing without swyping easier altogether, I typed this entire post with swype. Good job! Loveee it..

So typing normally is better on Swype than on the original Android keyboard?

We're working to improve that experience as well, but for obvious reasons, we tend to focus most of our efforts on Swypeability.

I dont know if my opinion will matter, but im typing in landscape with very minimal mistakes, without even having to Swype! Im gonna go off a limb here and say this is definetly better the stock keyboard.
The bad thing is though, it doesn't have auto correction with just normally typing.. (big downer) but the accuracy is so good it can kinda be rarely needed. I believe that still should have been an inclusion.. Though.
Edit: yes it does looked in settings.. Lol

Oh this is so awesome! Downloaded and installed without a glitch. Will start to try out typing on this.
i'm on CM latest stable, had 0 problems getting email, downloading, installing
Hmmm...
Have registered, got the email, got to the link...tried downloading but it's stuck with no data being transferred.
Anyone else experiencing this?
edit:
it downloads now...no idea why it didn't earlier...this version is much better than the ones released in the forum earlier... my default keyboard now

[Q] Google Now Launcher APK?

Perhaps a noob question but I figured I might as well ask before trying it and messing something up.
Is there a Google Now Launcher APK that's been confirmed to work on the G3? all the APKs I find are in articles and links from months ago and I just want to have the most recent information and APK(s) available.
Loving the G3 just would like Google Now Launcher and preferably the n5 dialer/camera apps. If all this is located somewhere and I'm just being an idiot, please point me in the right direction.
Thanks,
andrej
Google camera is in the play store, the others should be findable, I'll check when I get home for you

I assume it is working ok? Love the device, and I'm going to try to time with the stock launcher for at least a couple of days, but probably going to this launcher soon.

Keyboard lag input?

Am I the only one that is experiencing very noticeable lag while typing on the keyboard? Tried even with Swiftkey and google keyboard, the lag persist.
The phone is brand new and I have an empty sd card inside, but even without it lag.. Even the vibration feedback lag.
UP
Mine has been fine and I haven't heard of anyone else having this issue.
Maybe a faulty unit?
I read an article that it's because the phones nowdays have cpu scaling so they aren't eating up all the battery. When you're not using your phone, the cpu kinda hibernates, but if you start typing, it speeds up, then slows down when you pause, then speeds up again. And it takes a tiny bit for it to fully speed up, so the lag comes from the cpu scaling.

I don't think this is the cause, I have lag input always, even if I write for 10 minutes ..

The stock keyboard lags pretty bad when you type fast on my phone. Turning off the keyboard click sounds fixes it

As I already said, I have the same problems with the swiftkey, so it isn't a problem of the stock keyboard.. I've tried the S7 edge of my friend and it doesn't have this problem..
I have the same problem with Swiftkey on my galaxy s7 edge. Have compared it to my Xperia Z2 and it definitely lags
Edit: Also lags on Google keyboard and stock.
The swipe trail on Google Keyboard is laggy too. This sucks.
Samsung fix it!!

I was having a lag issue with my keyboard too not long after I got my S7. Not sure what caused it, but doing a factory reset fixed it. Have you tried that?
I haven't tried that, would rather avoid a factory reset. Google keyboard seems much better after I turned off swipe trail.

Lag in 3rd party keyboards, particularly Fleksy.

So, I got an Honor 8 recently and I've noticed a bit of lag on 3rd party keyboards, Fleksy in particular. When I try to use the swipe to space or delete gestures in Fleksy the 8 doesn't register it and just types letters instead pretty often. It was bad enough that I had to give up on using it. Even upon switching to GBoard I feel like I noticed some lag when typing quickly. It went away after disabling vibrate and pop up on keypress.
It just seems strange. I've used Fleksy for years on multiple phones and never had this problem. In-between my OnePlus X and Honor 8 I used it on an $80 Samsung phone and it worked flawlessly. Is this a problem anybody else has had with the Honor 8?

Do you use it on another language and not English?

It doesn't do "Swype" like tracing a complete pattern to type. It just has gestures like swipe left to delete the last word, swipe right to space, swipe right twice to punctuate then swipe up or down to change punctuation and swiping up/down to change the last word you typed. Once you get used to the gestures they're just really useful and can make typing a little quicker.

I don't think lag is the right term. It's not really lag just not properly registering the swipe gestures the way it's supposed to.

Edit: Resolved - For over 10 years, I have been using the BACK button to close activities. All of them. When I want to return to the launcher, I just press BACK from withing the given app until I get 'back' to the launcher. Why wouldn't I do this? It's how you close an app. Well, I hit the HOME button instead of using BACK to exit the app gracefully like I do for all other apps I run.. and.. AOE works. I don't get it. I'm not much of an Android developer, and I hate everything Google has done to Android in the last 5 years, but what gives here? I assume (and I can see) that the backgroud service still runs after the activity closes, so why would I want to leave the activity open and return to the launcher without gracefully closing the current activity? Anyway.. if I leave the activity open, it seems to work as expected, but not if I close the activity. Go figure.

I am using Resurrection Remix 8.6.7 on OnePlus 7 Pro. I've tried Plus Beat, True Edge, and now Always On Edge. I can't get any of them to work. Plus Beat came the closest by repeatedly flashing the lock screen, but I really want to use AOE and I would like to see the edge 'horizon' lights. I've given AOE every permission and accessibility service I know how to, and it still does not work.
Is it possible to use AOE on One Plus 7 Pro with Resurrection Remix 8.6.7 (Android Q10 based, and goes on top of OOS 10.3.8)?
