[Q] HTC Sensation XL keyboard - HTC Sensation XL

Hi guys
Can anyone tell me how I can add a new keyboard to my phone please? I had a gingerbread one on my Desire, but I can't get this phone to read any, and I hate the default one
Thanks

Should justbe the same as any other phone.
Install the new keyboard from the market, restart and then activate the new IME in the keyboard and language settings.
Once activated there, you can select it when entering text.

what's wrong with this dialer?

Hi,
I am trying to change the default dialer (open touch 4.0) with the htc dialer and this is what I get. Any idea?
If not where can I find a similar dialer? the one on the open touch has small keys and is not very responsive. It worked better with the htc dialer but obviously I can't use this one.
Any help
Well I found another one that works. But just by curiosity, if someone know what the hell that was about feel free to let me know.
Never mind, the new one freezes

Install HTC Touch Keyboard to Moto Droid

Love the HTC keyboard, can anyone instruct me as to how to get the HTC keyboard on the Motorola Droid? TIA
Welcome to forums

Better try here:

Good luck,
There are themed versions in Rom Manager. I use swype, so I never looked real hard for htc, but it's available for Droid.
Hero Keyboard (htc keyboard download)
Hi there, here is a download for the Hero keyboard, (which is the htc one, i havent actually tested it my self.
http://bit.ly/9daoNP
heres the notes on it from ShariarKuasa
It has no lag either and has phone keypad, full qwerty, and compact. But for some reason it only has t9 when texting and not in search option but still worth replacing the usual Keyboard. To install just download the zip file then extract and install the two apk's then go to settings>locale & text> then check the touch input then long press on the text box area till it says input then select touch input. (you have to install clicker apk and htc_ime apk for this to work).
It works on both root and non-root users.
I run jonasl's HTC_IME v19 on my Droid without any issue, it works great for me. It's a modified HTC_IME.
wow, telling him to go elsewhere and linking to weird megaupload files?
Here, go to the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=624416 This is the modded version of the HTC keyboard that most of us use.
and if you want a custom themes version of it, you can go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=654179
This is the latest jonas IME keyboard v.26 (HTC Keyboard), works perfect on my droid:

Does HTC_IME cause conflicts on G1?

I've read a lot about the HTC_IME keyboard on this forum and really want to install it on the G1, but I've read conflicting reports about it causing conflicts with the G1's physical keyboard. Is that true, or can some G1 owners confirm that the HTC virtual keyboard works without conflict?
NO i use it on cyanogen rom, first get the files needed onto your sd.Turn off android input in local, then use astro to install ime then the clicker.apk, finally goto settings->locale turn on new input setting, reboot.
I use it sometimes can be tricky to get in but it is some much better than stock.
it CAN cause conflicts, but they do work together well. i have an unthemed version of HTC_IME and i have them both turned on so that when the keyboard pops up, you see the android VK instead of the HTC_IME keyboard, and it still uses all the functions of the HTC_IME. (honestly i dont like the way the HTC_IME's keys look so cluttered with numbers and symbols, but i love the user-dictionary functions and such. )
Anyway right when i made the switch to donut i had a problem with it when i tried to calibrate the HTC_IME keyboard without having the clicker.apk installed, continuous loop of FC's of the HTC_IME and i had to go all the way back to cm-4.1.11.1 and then flash back to 4.1.99 THEN back to the latest to get everything back to normal again. but since then i havent had a single problem with it, and they both work perfectly together...

the only "conflict" i've had with HTC_IME and the physical keyboard was when i was typing on the physical keyboard, it made the sound it makes when i type on the VK. not sure that's really a conflict though.
The only problem I've encountered with the HTC IME on my G1 is that when I touch the screen with the keyboard open, the soft keyboard's suggestion thing comes up when I start typing again. It goes away once you close & open the physical keyboard, though.

Yup this and the one above is the "conflict" that is widely known. its more of an annoyance
Thanks all for the input. I've searched and read through a lot of threads on this forum about installing the HTC VK, but there seem to be a lot of different installation procedures out there.
What would be considered the safest/easiest procedure for someone who is a novice with modding Android?
I've modded phones before, but that was only flashing feature phones with generic unbranded firmware...I've never done anything with Android. In fact, I've never even plugged in my phone's USB cable. If someone could post or link to the best installation procedure for the HTC VK I'd appreciate it.
EDIT: I'm running the stock T-Mobile 1.6 ROM if that matters.
Download the files from this thread and use AppInstaller from the Market. I'm just going by what other ppl have said in that thread so I cant guarantee anything w/ that app, I used adb to install the IME on my phone.
*EDIT* Also, just found this: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/How_to_install_HTC_Keyboard.

That does sound annoying. Does the conflict go away if you go to Settings and switch back to the Android keyboard? Or is the issue there whenever the HTC VK is installed?
Yes it can be annoying when suggestions pop up when using the physical keyboard w/ HTC IME, just don't tap text entry fields when using HTC IME, use the trackball instead. Probablem solved. Just install it. You can go to settings > Locale and switch to the google IME whenever you want.

Only when HTC IME is enabled.
I got it installed and it's working beautifully!
Thanks to HTC for creating it, and to Cyanogen for making it available!

ya this is what i do. i like having this vk over any other vk because its accurate.... i dont always wanna open my phone lol.
I'm actually not having that problem. My issue is a little different.
Even though I have auto spelling correction enabled for the device keyboard, auto correction isn't actually working. This has been the case ever since I installed and switched to the HTC virtual keyboard.
Does anyone know a fix for this, or is this one of those things I'll have to live with?
what rom are you using it on?
This is the stock T-Mobile 1.6 ROM.
I have a 1.5 Dream & no prob with HTC_IME! Just looking to go up to 1.6 now!

HTC input with proper bulgarian keyboard layout

Hi guys, I know there are bulgarians around and they need to use our mother language often on our phones. Sadly from HTC they have chosen a layout that our granddads used on their typewriters, its not the newest one. My point is - is there a way to get a proper htc input with proper bulgarian layout keyboard. Many people have messaged to HTC and the response is - we are working on it. On the newest devices its proper one I know, but for the roms we use is the old one. Is there any way to fix this Thanks in advance.
