Hi !
It seems to me that the keyboard from the last update is a bit smaller compared to the original one, which looked like this one : http://www.actualitemobile.com/foru...ed0afa4cf4e9502a831020a20bfd0a32&topic=2079.0
I wanna know if I could find a way to have this keyboard back, with perhaps a more stable version than this hacked keyboard. I have quite big fingers, and it isn't yet easy to type in T9 on phone keyboard.
Or I'm open to other keyboards, as long as it has a phone Keyboard [ABC] [DEF] etc and T9 (Windows Mobile's is good).
Thank you.
Hi all.
I just bought my first Android phone and since on my iPhone I can have Japanese keyboard and text too, I was wondering if the same is possible in Android phone like the Liquid.
Thank you

Search "wnn" in the Market....
Great Navygino!
I just dloaded openwnn, but there is another one too I'd like to test...
And switch to Jpn keyboard is even faster than iPhone since on Appele you got to cicle through all the enabled keybs, here you just long press a key and voilà!
I'm so happy now!!
keyboard layout
it's a bit off topic but didn't seem worth opening a new thread.
i'm putting it here as it's kind of related i think.
I'm also using openwnn for japanese input. looks pretty good.
once i'll get used to type on a screen
however, what is bothering me, is the qwerty layout.
is there anyway to switch the z and y keys?
also being able to write ä ü ö would be a nice...
Hello,
There are at least 3 Japanese keyborads for Android"
Open Wnn
Open Wnn Plus
and Simeji
I personally like the fist one most - because it has the easiest method to input emoji.
ä ü ö can also be input via special chars table.
Hey guys,
I was wondering if anyone else really liked the new stock IME included in Froyo.
I tried swype, SwiftKeys and the Htc IME, but I just keep coming back to the stock froyo keyboard.
With the new two rows of pop-up keys and the ease of switching languages, I find it to be the easiest to use. Definitely more intelligent than the iPhone keyboard.
Only problem I have when compared to typing on the iPhone is that it will miss keys if I type too fast, but all the ime I've tried do that. It's likely more of a touchscreen issue there.
Just curious if other people were enjoying it as well.
The one problem I have is the fact that it doesn't support the Canadian French keyboard layout. Typing in azerty is just terrible! Lots of bug reports in to Google on that point, but no movement yet.
if swype didn't cut it I really don't know what will, smart keyboard is really good and fast try it if you haven't already.
and to answer your question, I honestly loath it. but you see that's the beauty of android, if you don't like anything just change it lol.
I keep coming back to it also, does exactly what I want it too and is easy to use, used swype on my old windows mobile phone but see no need for it here. the text predicition means I rarely type near the full word.
In portrait mode I use swype, while in landscape mode I use the stock keyboard. Does anyone know any light half-qwerty keyboard for portrait use? I tried HTC_IME but it had that little bug that wouldn't register the word "IF". I wonder if it still exists in the latest version. Also is there an original HTC_IME lying around somewhere? I want something light and not as heavy as the modded one.
Tried Swype once.. not for me.
Been on stock ever since coz it's allright...
I can't get away from the HTC IME keyboard cause it has T9 standard keypad, and I'm just so much faster typing on that.
Tried Swype a while ago. But since FroYo I've been very happy with stock...Especially in landscape.

I like it. I use HTC ime too but I use stock alot. The reason you're more accurate on iPhone is probably because of its genius unseen system whereby it predicts the next letter you're going to type and resizes all of the keys' pressable areas based on the odds they will be selected. The greater the odds the bigger the pressing area. If the stock android KB implemented that it would be perfect. Thick keys is similar but not very good so I'm guessing there might not be a copyright issue. I know android indicated its awareness that the android kb needs a lot of work so maybe gingerbread will bring some enhancements...
I've always been used to the T9 predictive text of the symbian phones but I just can't find anything that works just as well. The closest I've got is 'Black Bolts' but it is very laggy and doesn't seem to use the inbuilt dictionary. I cannot get 'better keyboard' to work on gingerbread and I can't use the swype type keyboards. Can anyone suggest anything?
Regards
Steve
Try Swiftkey Keyboard. I found it great. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
search for "htc ime" - it's a port of the htc keyboard and works perfect.
Swiftkey FTW.
Hiho, i've searched already if i can find a thread like this, but i didn't.
So for my and maybe your interest, which Keyboard do you use?
Samsung, Gingerbread, Swype?
Thanks
p.s. the version depends on the choseable keyboards, because on below 2.3 you dont have Gingerbread Keyboard...
SlideIT on 2.3.3
Since getting my SGS, always used Swype. Tried using the GB keyboard but just keep going back to Swype.
I don't use any of the above mentioned keyboards. I use Better Keyboard 8.
I use the Samsung keyboard that's enough for me
Gingerbread keyboard is available for 2.2

Multiling Gingerbread Keyboard
Swipe, after a bit of training, it is the fastes way to type for me.

I also vote for swype.
I like the suggestions from the gingerbread keyboard though, the swype suggestions dialog is really obstrusive, that's the only thing I've got against it.
But I keep going back to swype since it predicts what I want to write with great accuracy and I end up writing a lot faster with it.
BTW my main language is spanish, and it works like a charm with it.
Swype all the way. Haven't even tried any other keyboard yet.
It's so convinient
Swype 2.3+ , i get annoyed when i flash roms and the samsung kb is there.
can't beat swype i reckon, using a normal touch keyboard to press every single button is so tedious now and swype is way faster once u get used to it
Smart Keyboard Pro with personnal skin
I'm in love with swype, it's the best keyboard I've ever used. One thing I didn't like with it, it saves every entry I tap, other than this I'm so happy with it

i thought samsung keyboard is really fast but ill test swype now too... this popup often bothered me in typing very quick, but maybe after learning many words it'll be quick
thx to all =)
I use swype. Nothing quite as satisfying as swyping out your whole email address in less than a second
It's also great for making sure nosy people can't peak at your passwords when you have trail off.
