this helped me get a new one but where is the white one like the one for the hero roms? lol thanks for this tho it helps me out alot more lol
hahah nevermind i found it lol thanks guy for opening up a whole new light!!
Ok so I basically tried all keyboards that are on the market.. I have swype and slide it as well.. But I find myself going back and forth between all my keyboards and can not get comfortable sticking with one. I use a keyboard for like a week, if that, and switch to another one or search for hopefully a newest one. Its like I can't find one that suits me..
Does anybody have any recommendations on this??
Thanks for your help =)

I find Swype the easiest...Anyway keyboard choice is just everyone's personal preference. Just use one you find comfortable.
I like swype but don't like how you have to go over certain letters twice for a particular word such as; "choosing", "messages", " button", etc...
If I had to pick between SlideIt or Swype, I would have to go with SlideIT.. But I don't like how you have to press the "?123" button for symbols and numbers.
I agree that swype is easier, but I guess I'm jus to picky lol..
swype for me as well. but i saw something about this guy installing the droid x keyboard on his nexus. it has multi touch... i believe he also got the apk somewhere in here.

You don't have to go over them twice. You can just scribble on the letter. Go look at swype hints and tips. They got some really neat things to speed up texting.
But I use swype or better keyboard.

Ur crazy... Lol. But I have noticed that the built in keyboard does have the best predictions... If only the buttons were spaced out and bigger

I forgot I was in a Nexus forum. :X I probably need to take my post-happy self back to the Dream. Either way, go look at their tips and tricks. If you can memorize them all and learn to use them out of habit... NO ONE you know without Swype will be able to text faster than you.
AS for built in keyboard, I like it. It has NICE response speed and when every other keyboard lags, it doesn't. Like you said, though, the keys are just too small. :|

Crazy.
I too am a fan of swype. Although the Desire keyboard is a pretty nice alternative...

... Hahahaha! that made my night, i needed that laugh lmao
i knew the basics of swype and had swype for awhile now and i guess i didnt know about other tricks and what not, thanks for sheadin some light on that.. ill go check them out now.. im sure its on the swype website, so thats where ill look first =]
Again, thanks! i hope i can get used to this swype thing because i find myself thinking where to slide my finger when using slideit and swype.. when i just use a regular keyboard my fingers seem to jus "flow" like its just reaction (if that makes sense).. i know where all the keys are based on memory so i dont think about it when i type, swype on the other hand.. I do lol.
Im sure its just a learning curve.. so when i get frustrated doing swype, ill stick to it and not switch to another keyboard so itll become 2nd nature..
... All in all i appreciate it man, ima go check out the tips now lol
Time to beat that record!! haha.. =]

... I didnt know like 85% of what i just saw about swype!! HOT DAM!
Im really gonna push myself into learning Swype to its full potential now! OMG...
Swype is faster in portrait mode, plus it feels very natural once you're used to it. On the downside, typos are a pain to redo, usually requiring you to retype the whole thing. Plus, there's almost no spellcheck ability.
In landscape, I can type faster with Better Keyboard. I'd wish they'd incorporate the punction in the suggestion bar, but I'm good with press and hold.
I love Swype. I switched to it about a week ago and I can type really fast!!
I was using HTC_IME and I still might be using it if it supported multitouch. I'm waiting for the Droix X keyboard to be ported over, that looks promising.

I haven't yet seen ANY keyboard on my Nexus (2.1, stock, not rooted) work with multitouch.. I use HTC IME that was modified from here to include smileys and a few other things.. Works well for me.
If you looking for a non swype style keyboard, I really like Smart Keyboard Pro. Its my daily driver, although I do also have Swype installed.
someone at modaco have found the real edition
here you go

hi everybody
i need a dialer like dialer htc sense for my phone.i raealy need smart dilaer and search in my contact when i am dial any number like sms search...i use elelinux 6.2...can you help me?can you port phone.apk from other rom and install?i see phone.apk in wildfire 2.2 without htc sense rom...
sorry by writing
tnx
Hi there
You can try Dialer One, or Youlu adress book.
Both have smart dialing.
I'm unsure if dialer can be porter to AOSP/CM..as sense apps require sense
I've tested many smart dialers like the Sense's one, but any of them is as good as this made by hTC. They're too slow, at least on Heroes
thanks so much
you could try touchpal dialer bin using it for a while now and i like the way it looks

Brilliant... just love this one! Thanx for the tip!
Yeah, the latest version of TouchPal is really nice. Much better than any of the alternatives I've tried.

Touchpal is awesome....but nothing beats the original sense UI.
Very good looking and fast on my Hero with CM7.
One thing that annoys me with external dialer apps is that when I miss a call it stays missed in the status bar even after I open it and return the call with Touchpal.
This problem is being fixed by opening the native "phone" app.
No searching for a solution on this one
Cheers!

Agree... Sense UI Dailer is perfect for outside usage
Dialer2 works smoothly on my hero
I have a lot themed with the ICS blue, next I would love a keyboard. Or even if I could get a themed stock keyboard and change the white letters to the ICS blue. Personally I'd rather keep my stock keyboard then download a keyboard app. Does anyone know of any kind of flashable theme for this? That'll be pretty awesome
Everything is just so VIVID

I'm not to aware that you can flash a keyboard or if there are even ones out there, but I use this to get the stock ICS keyboard. It works really well and also has the dictionary for auto-correction and stuff.
