[HELP?] Voice Input Keyboard.

Hey Guys. I need help.
I am using Darchdroid 2.7 and everthing is AMAZING!
Everything but the keyboard
I am glad there's finally a Voice Input option, but the keyboard looks horribe. And I know it isn't supposed to be like that because the old one doesn't.
See attachments for examples. The first two are the ones with voice from Darch's Google ****s and the last is the original eclair keyboard. As you can see, the sidebars and the bottom strip are weird.
I told Darch, and he asked me to get someone to fix it (unfortunately, I can't cause I dont know how)!
Please anyone. Thanks in advance.

Guys! Does no one have a fix??

just download and use the htc keyboard! i find it much better

Hmm.. and how might I do that?? And does it lag like it did on Stock Hero?

Mod. edit: not dev related, moved to q&a

look for the htc ime xda mod keyboard, search for it on the forums and you shouldnt experience any lag with it

What is the best keyboard?

Hi,
I just wonder what is the best keyboard for Hero? Smart Keyboard? Swiftkey? or Better keyboard?

Having used most of them I kinda prefer swiftkey at the moment it's quiet good to predict and fix typing errors. I am also waiting for blindtype which should affording to reviews be available soon for both iPhone and android.

I have used all three and was using Swiftkey the most. I have however flashed FroydVillian1.1.1 and since the voice input patch I find myself using the voice input most of the time. (it has only been 2 days) It is very good at getting my text correct.

For me it's without a doubt SlideIT. I can type incredibly fast with it.

Swype it good, much better than SlideIT, but if you don't have beta then you need to buy it I think. The HTC sense standard keyboard is pretty good actualy.

Thank you all. I will install all and after a week of trial I will find the suitable for me.

i think you just get used to a keyboard rather than one being better than another

There are definitely a substantial difference in the prediction algorithms, and suggestion styles among the various keyboards.
I prefer Swiftkey beta, as it downloads a language pack and frequently predicts the next word I am about to type BEFORE TYPING A SINGLE KEY. Seriously, it'll blow your mind.
BlindType also looks promising, if you care to get that freaky with your keyboard.

I tried SwiftKey for a few days, and it was really impressive how it adapted to my writing style. I think it comes with a set of phrases and what-comes-after-what, but it can adapt as you type and (if you allow it, I think) read your old texts to customize itself to your style. I like it.

+1 for swiftkey am loving it wish they had an iphone version as well.

I've made my choise and the winner is Swiftkey. Very good and it's like the soft is reading my mind.

[Q] Best keyboard other than Swype

Some how since backing up my phone and removing the bloatware, I've managed to delete the Android Keyboard.
Is there anyway to redownload this keyboard? I prefer it to the Samsung Keyboard hands down. Or perhaps there is another keyboard you would recommend that I can download via the Market or elsewhere?
Thank you

I like swiftkey...comes a close second to Swype for me.

The swiftkey beta is definitely worth a look. I prefer swype, personally.

So is there no way to get the Android Keyboard back? Even after I restore the backup prior to the bloatware removal, it always seems to disappear. Could I be deleting something causing it to go away?

I have it after removing the bloat?

So then what happened to my android keyboard?! =/

Just do an Odin restore, that should get it back on there

My favorite has got to be the DroidX multitouch keyboard.

Thanks SOOOO Much !!! SwiftKey is AMAZING! I used to like the stock android keyboard because it was fast, had good prediction, and was black so more batt efficient.
Swiftkey's prediction is just about two fold better than the stock android. The only things I would change is to add a D-pad when you hit the alt button, and making the keyboard more black to save on batt. (unlikely it will get optimized for SAMOLED screens though)

SlideIt keyboard best of all

I just purchased this today and after trying every other keyboard I can say this one meets all of my needs. Accurate, multi-touch, and good customization all in one.

I second this particular keyboard. I find myself using this on a regular basis.

I use Smart Keyboard Pro and I love it. Great prediction and just has a good feel. I haven't tried the Droid X keyboard yet, I'll try it out.

Swype is great, but my vote also goes to Smart Keyboard Pro. I've tried almost all of them, and this one is a keeper.

For me, it's really hard to choose.
I like the Samsung keyboard because of multitouch and I feel like I can type faster on it, but the autotext is a pain.
The Droid X keyboard is nice especially because of multitouch but it is really stupid when it comes to predicting text..
The stock android keyboard is okay, just no multitouch.
I'd say the Droid X keyboard wold be my pick. I usually use that.
-Just my two cents.

i, too, am loving the DroidX over Swiftkey

I actually love the default Samsung keyboard in 2.2, I just wish I could switch the Period (.) to the other side of the space bar as I tend to hit it half of the time instead of the space bar with my right thumb.
Anybody know of a keyboard that is exactly the same as the default Samsung Keyboard in 2.2 but with those buttons switched?

The keyboard is the only thing I miss from Sense builds, so it's great to have this available!
Enjoy

As I said, I know this keyboard but it's the old one. If I remember right, it doesn't have the arrows, and when you press space and it puts another word instead of the one you typed, then you go back, it won't show the word you first typed. I don't know if you get what I mean, my English isn't that good and even in French it would be difficult for me to say it.

Ok, I guess there is no way! I'd love to know why : )

You're right about the cursor keys (arrow keys) not being there, but the keyboard I linked does show the word you typed, and not the one it replaced it with when you pressed space. Okay, it's not perfect, but it's 50% which is better than 0%
And it's not your English that's not good. That is a hard concept to explain, but I knew what you meant.

Best Keyboard App?

What keyboard do you guys find the most responsive on the Note?
I swore by Smart Keyboard Pro on my Dell Streak as it could keep up with my typing and seemed like the most responsive on the Streak at the time, but I find it nowhere near as responsive on the Note.
I recently started using Go Keyboard on the Note and have so far found it much more responsive. I set it up with the midnight theme, 4 landscape keyboard height and no pop up characters when typing and I find it has been the only keyboard that has been able to keep up with me if I try to type at crazy speeds. Great things about it are that it is totally free and very customizable!
Let me know your thoughts.

Swiftkey was the one I went for after testing all of them. The fastest for me.

I already tried Swiftkey and didn't get on with it as well as Go Keyboard. I remember trying Go Keyboard on the Streak and not liking it as much as Smart Keyboard Pro back then, so it is either a device difference or maybe the Go Development Team have made some improvements since.

swiftkey x, give you the best word to choose when writing and the fast one to.
Ps: you can even reduce the space it show by the keyboard on the screen.

Try the ICS keyboard from the market its pretty good. Plus is free

Agreed.
On a side note, any one knows a way to pop up Samsung keyboard (handwriting mode) on a-pen detection, even if it using a party keyboard? ?
I'm using Swype ,but I'd love to be able to use pen writing once I click on the screen with the pen (which is possible only using the stock Samsung keyboard)

Great tip! I just tried the one by VLLWP and it seems to respond very well to crazy fast typing. I think I will stick with it for now until something better comes along.

my keyboard
This is thumbs keyboard with my settings on it...... I think this thing is really fast

I like Thumb Keyboard. Swiftkey not so much; it's a little too smart for me.

Right now i'm using Swiftkey because of the arrow buttons. Im sort of happy with it.

i just downloaded the ICS keyboard.
I must say it is very good!
I was using smart keyboard. although it is fast, but i found it laggy, like if i type really fast it won't detect some of the letters.
but with ICS it detect all the letters i press!

Even I have the same question. I am using the "AI keyboard" free version and I am pretty much loving it. I liked Go Keyboard as well.
But whichever app I use, I miss the handwriting mode for S-Pen. So I keep switching back to Samsung keyboard now and then.

I like Go keyboard best.

I like Perfect Keyboard. It's the quickest and smoothest for me, all other keyboards lag unfortunately...

used better keyboard for a while, it was good but it lacks arrow keys.
then i started to use smart keyboard and once customized, best keyboard yet, well worth the buy

I'm also with Thumb keyboard, very good one!

I used to use Smart Keyboard Pro on my SGS2 and Dell Streak, worked fine. It has a lot of lag on the SGN.
I now use Ultra Keyboard. The best and most configurable Love it.

Bought SwiftKey X, absolutely fantastic auto correction and unlike all the other android keyboards that I tried, doesn't lag when you hit a key.
