[Q] Froyo Stock Keyboard/HTC IME Hybrid - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I feel like this is a stupid question so forgive my ignorance if it is but would it be possible to create a keyboard that uses the prediction and keys of IME with the features of the stock froyo keyboard? (I mean the ability to insert ! . , ? after each word and being able to slide your finger up for additional characters)
This seems like it would be impossible but then again, this is XDA so you never know
anyway, thanks!

I know its not quite what you're looking for, but a bit of work has been done on a keyboard manager to set different keyboards for portrait and landscape mode -- its still a WIP but its promising.

HTC touch keyboard

How do I disable the phone style keyboard, and only have the proper 123/qwerty one, in contacts the keyboard changes to the 3 press phone one, but on other apps is the proper wide one?
touch keyboard changes its layout depending on what app you are using i think.
Can't really answer your question though.. lol sorry :O
I'd still like to lock, or remove some screens.
This bothers me too. I've tried playing with all the various XT9 options.
It would also be nice to have the HTC Touch keyboard work in landscape mode with out having to slide out the keyboard
is there any way to ALWAYS use the touch keyboard? no sometimes the touchkeyboard and sometimes the touch T9 keyboard?
bothers me too... I want to use the keyboard that I can see when there is nothing to type... but the keys are big enough and seperate from each other...

I've gone back to this, even though it is a bit unstable.

Hero Keyboard

Wuts good XDA-Developers Q&A
well i'd like to kno is it possible to get a better keyboard for the Hero build JacxSki v2.1 for the G1/Dream cause i was useing "HERO2 - Freedom of choice 1.5.4JAC-SKI BFS-211" and i like that keyboard but on both of these build theres no "Landscape" mode for the keyboard so can you change the keyboard layout at all or can i change it and get Landscape too some how
the onscreen keyboard (AKA HTC_IME) should be the same for both. Chances are the app you're using doesn't support auto rotation.
you mean the rom im useing doesnt support auto-rotation rite? im sure Hero does thou pretty sure it does that dam rom can do everything else

No, I mean the app you're using doesn't auto rotate.
When you say the landscape keyboard doesn't work, what do you mean?
So the app rotates, but the keyboard never opens when you tap the area for text input. A screen shot would be nice if you know how to use adb.

[Q] [?]Can't we get the TAP sensor working on Custom Roms??

Hey Guys , can't v get the tap sensor to work on Customs Roms like MIUI , CyanogenMod in Optimus 2x???
stuppid question , but what for is the tap sensor ? wat does it?
I'm guessing he means the stock ROM feature where you tap the edge of the phone to bump the cursor along.

Have to say I love that feature on the LG keyboard and it's the reason I still use it even if layout and functions (like long hold for nos etc) are better on other keyboards like the GB one

The GB keyboard has cursor keys, which I actually find more useful than the tap function. Just swipe up from the space bar to show them and swipe down to hide them.

Er, no it doesn't. No idea what you're using, but it's not the GB keyboard.

lol, i didn't even know the stock rom had that
Does the 'leaked' GB ROM include it also?

Maybe I should have been clearer. I'm using Keyboard from Android 2.3 by Steven Lin from the market, which does have that feature.
Ah ha, yes that makes more sense. Just had a look, not a bad idea really.

[Q] How to increase keyboard size

I upgraded to LA4 and realized that letters are a lot smaller that the previous firmware I had. My fingers are too big for a tiny keyboard. I mean we have 5.3" screen what is the point of shrinking the letters that much?
Anyways, how can I get my old keyboard back or a keyboard that is bigger than the LA4 keyboard?
I liked the bigger keyboard better. the new one is too small for me.
I would appreciate it if some knew how to get the older keyboard back instead of reverting to an older rom
hi, maybe im wrong, but could it be that you guys have been under settings->language&Keyboard and have set a tap to an option that called 'one hand operation' ? if yes delete the tap and you have your old keyboard back
Also smart keyboard on the market, allows you to increase its keys to whatever pixel size you want :-D

I am not a big fan of 3rd party keyboard apps but in this case I will try that. Thank you.
Any other suggestions are welcomed.
I use hacker's keyboard from the market. There you can set the height of the keys if you want to.
tap*talked via GT-N7000 (GB.XXLA4)
yeah.. smart keyboard pro should do the trick..

About samsung stock keyboard

Hi everyone! It's good to be back. I just switched from an iPhone 6 to a Galaxy S6 (G920F) few days ago but I am not new with rooting and other things in android. I just have some questions and I need help.
1. How can I make the stock samsung keyboard to always show uppercase keys (like the one in the iPhone). I do not like using 3rd party keyboards. I want the stock samsung keyboard to NOT display lowercase keys. I WANT IT TO PERMANENTLY DISPLAY UPPERCASE KEYS.
2. How can I remove the number row on the top of the stock samsung keyboard? Like the one in the S3 that does not have a number row at the top. I prefer not having the number row.
Your help would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance!
So you want an iPhone keyboard : | . Just install ai.type keyboard and an ios 7/8 theme for ai.type . then personalize the keyboard and there you have it
I want to keep the stock keyboard.. i just want to remove the number row in it. And also disable the keys from displaying lowercase keys.

i dont think it is possible, maybe another keyboard is the only way
You cant do those things trough the stock keyboard configuration. Get used to it or try a different keyboard.
Not possible bro .. At least from what i know ...
You came from the iPhone huh? I can tell lol. Try experimenting with new stuff! There's a ton of better options vs the Samsung keyboard. Google Keyboard is my personal favorite. If you know how, you can make that thing look like any keyboard you want lol.
