I like the smallness, leaves a lot of space for the top.

Tried the attached HTC keyboard above and it just kept FC'ing. I love that keyboard but it doesn't work in my Gingerbread rom. Too bad you need Sense to use it...unless someone knows how to change that

Because it is for dhd and dz which are froyo based and not gb based.

Multitouch doesn't work properly anyway. Try pressing one letter, keep it pressed while pressing the next letter and then release the first one and after that the second one. you will see that you wrote just one letter in most cases.
we need a new driver/kernel whatever for our touchscreens. and concerning multitouch in general ( hoping desperately that someone with skills reads it), when you are on the same "line" with your thumbs, i.e. shooter games, it occasionally flips your coordinates (x,y).

A good keyboard?

I've been looking for a keyboard better than aosp and swipe (i hate swype so much.....). On both of those i make typo's constantly and the autocorrect sucks hard... Please let me know what keyboard you use and what you think about it.
I use swype because it's the poo, but I hear swiftkey is good...
love swiftkey!!
I second SwiftKey! Try the trial
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
I use SwiftKey as well, it's pretty good. I like it more than Swype I think.
I have used the android, swype, samsung, gingerbread, droidx, bestkb, swiftkey and smart kb.
Swype is the best for one handed typing. DroidX is decent, but lacks many options. Swiftkey has the best predictive text for the lazy typer. IMO, smartkb is the best for 2 handed typing, plus its options/settings are usable and not in excess.
All the others are a waste of time.
Skywalker offers a really nice wp7 keyboard. Doubled my typing speed. Its in rom manager in his modify existing rom folder
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
I personally like the HTC keyboard found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=624416
I keep wanting to like swiftkey, but don't see the appeal. Smart Keyboard Pro wins my vote.

I'll second this. SKP is probably the best I've used. The WP7 one is really damn good too - but didn't have haptic feedback last I tried it.
IME, swype is very good and I have used it more than anything else. If you rely on prediction I'd say Swiftkey. If you manually hit every key in landscape, smart key pro. In portrait its hard to beat swype though. Its nice to have several to choose from I think I have 5 installed now myself but I mainly rotate between the 3 aforementioned

Thanks for all the suggestions! i cant believe i didnt know about all of these. So far im loving the wm7 keyboard... it really does increase my typing speed by a ton, but the no haptic feedback is annoying.

[REQ] Rotate animation

Is there a way to get a let's say iPhone like screen rotate animation? That turn, wait, refresh we have atm is pretty boring. :rolleys:
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
I'd also like to have that awesome animation.
Also i'd like to get that keyboard animation working too.. have tried everything but it wont work.
Which keyboard animation?
This one:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wLYdb2yK9DY
Go to the one minute mark. On the Desire in that vid (and DHD) you can see there's no animation, then on the nexus you see the keyboard slide up smoothly.
Ah yeah, that would be nice as well.
Is there really no dev who wants to look into that?
Or shall I reopen that thread in the dev section?

There are no screen rotation animations in Gingerbread. The screen off animation is the only real addition, since Froyo.

The way it looks, Honeycomb will remain strictly a tablet OS. That said, many of the features, especially the eye candy, are expected to be merged into AOSP code in the near future. Let's hope for big things when 2.4 is released.

To enable the keyboard pop up animation you need spare parts from the market and activate the inputanimation option.

[Q] Anyone using the Gingerbread keyboard.

Anyone using gingerbread keyboard smoothly on our G Tab? I downloaded the market app and sometimes characters disappear while typing and keyboard is unusable. If anyone is using a smoother version please tell me.
PS Before someone flames i looked around and found dans thread posted way back. Doesnt really work for me.

actually there's an issue with the gingerbread keyboard.. if you type too fast.. double letters will appear.. it's a bug.. that's why i've uninstalled it..
I use MultiLing Gingerbread Keyboard, it's free, many option, theme, and more importend i like this keyboard !!!
So far, so good, i don't have any problem, regular up date.
Sent from my GT-P1000
I prefer the stock keyboard. works very well

i too used the market version by s.lin and even if i randomly type at silly speed its working just fine, its the best keyboard i ever used on the tab.
love it !
I don't really see what the fascination with the GB keyboard is.
IMO the best keyboard for our Tab is Thumb Keyboard as its designed for the tablet in mind.

I saw it somewhere.... used it.. wiped and lost it. I cannot find it. Anyone have a linking for it or a working APK? Thanks.
Here ya be.....

Xda has been told not to link swype.apk and to use their www.beta.swype.com/ since its free to sign up and get updates.
Appreciate it.. reflashed it and totally forgot to save the working one I had.
Just in case someone needs it. Heres my original post with the working swype apk.

Try setting swiftkey portrait and landscape key height to large. I use the one for phones, and and it works fine. Almost as good as the keyboard on my playbook . The settings are under advanced.

It didn't work for me either, says screen res is not supported.
Looks like its a waiting game...

Personally, I would like to use swipe in portrait, and swift key in landscape. I really wish someone could port the blackberry playbook keyboard though, that one is great .

I've been using Thumb Keyboard for a while now and it works fantastically, you can setup different keyboard layouts for portrait or landscape with lots of themes and custom settings (like height and width of the keyboards as well, not to mention custom letter combos) Its great!
