hi, i have the icedhoneybun rom . i still have issues with the slow texting response. i will text a wrod as "hello" and i will hit the "hel" and then the phone will begin to type the words. it is annoying and get confusing when i am trying to type because the phone will assume i am holding down a word to get the other input like the number 1 . will overclocking fix this problem ? does anyone know which ROM has the fewest problems? i do not use twitter or face book or finger prints or any social apps
thank you for any help you guys can give.
I just switched from dc2.8 to darch's newest ROM. So far not a single problem, except for accessing a wap site but I doubt that's the ROM's fault. What text program are you using? Also what keyboard? Swype beta is open to everyone now I think, look into that also.

i have the stock htc verrrry lagggy keyboard
Hi I have the iced hunybun Rom and have the hero HTC stock keyboard. I have tried swype but I don't like it. It give misspellings a lot of the time.
Turn off vibration?
I prefer regaw mod... the best one out of all I have tried. Stable, everything works, and good on battery.

darch droid is the best bet. FAST!!!
hi regawmod and darkdroid?
Hi what forums can I find the links for these. Roms? I have tried the blue eco. And still very slow in texting and web page input in the URL or this forum
Right now Ian using buffed with the overclocking and removed haptic response and vibration. And still a lagging keyboard. I don't like swype and yes swype lags as well
I have the AOSP Voice keyboard. It looks like the swipe keyboard with a voice input button. It has been the best keyboard I have used so far. This should be the link:

Try blue echo again. I just released a new build and will have one final update tonight. Just remember to change the keyboard out to the android keyboard and its extremely fast
The android keyboard is significantly faster than the HTC keyboard. If you're looking for less lag, ditch the HTC keyboard. Darchdroid types very well from my experience.

Hello all!! I recently installed Cootek Touchpal on my TILT, and I sometimes have problems with it, sometimes it freezes up and doesn't let me enter in any letter, other times letters vanish from the damn keyboard itself. Does anyone have the same problems with it? I really like the keyboard and how its layed out but the problems are just getting on my nerves. Does anyone have a alternative keyboard that they use without opening the keyboard? I use it alot when im in the car, when I only have one hand free. thanks

No I haven't posted there yet, but I was just wondering if anyone had any other keyboards that they use. Becuase the default one is small, even if you put it in large keys mode.
Oh then you might want to search for that.
alrighty then. Thanks

I use the cootek TouchPal 3.0 I used all versions since it came out. I actually do not even use the hardware keyboard anymore I can type so much faster on the TouchPal. I have had freezing when trying to type but I have always found it to be the ROM not the keyboard. What ROM are you on?

First the snapshots looked good. This is somehow similar to what we see in marketing : products branded with nice designs, but the quality poor.
My device, Axim X51V, is quite a fast one, or this is my impression about this kind of CPU's. Touchpal made me feel I was using a 200MHz OMAP.
So after a few tests in which I've seen it doesn't do much I've uninstalled it quickly. Sorry, but there are better alternatives, so I won't stick to something inferior.
If anyone needs to know, I'm currently using FTPRO, it's simply the best KB so far, you can download the CAB Attached and give it a try. More details on www.fingertouchpro.com

Hi,
Does any know if there is a T9 onscreen application for sms on HTC DReam? I sms alot and the keyboard is driving me nuts!
Any help appreciated.
Better Keyboard has one (which I would really recommend, due to the skins). There's also a Big Keys T9 version.
Hey Jordanjay, Thank you for your help. I tried but when i clicked on the "open in market" icon, it shows that there were no matches in android market for the search.
Would you know what's wrong? Thanks alot.
What build are you on? The soft keyboards will only work with cupcake builds.
You could always try searching for 'T9' in the market, I found both of these applications via that search.
what do u mean by build? i tried searching the market but to no avail. pls help
Go to Settings > About Phone.
What is displayed under Firmware version?

Haven't had issues like that. You should email Better Android (the dev) about it.
Finally, there is now a .apk for a simple install of the new Gingerbread keyboard.
It has been confirmed working for MCCM HD and MDJ Desire HD build so it should work for all the other HD builds.
The .apk files can be found here.
I would love to get this working as well. To shed some light, it does work on Motoman's black and blue, which is based off of MDJ's rEVOlution 2.0. So I know it is sense compatible, just not Desire HD compatible.
I would love if someone got this working!
This is the error log when FC. I cant look at it now but I suppose lib files needs to be changed. I have no C-coding capabilities.. so..

+!. I would love this too, it's the only thing missing from MDJ's RevolutionHD build. I honestly don't think many people are bothered though, the problem is that once I'd tried it with a Froyo build it's horrible going back to the HTC one. So unresponsive and nasty.
I tried the gingerbread keyboard in darkstones superram build, and man I hated it! How do you guys deal with not have the arrow keys? Especially with copy and pasting, editting, etc...its a pain without the arrow keys.

You don't need arrow keys with the HD builds because you get the zoom and select features when you press and hold on the text area.
But when you mistype and you want to correct a single letter, then tipping with a finger can be difficult... thus i love the arrow buttons!

I am just guessing here but I dont think you have actually tried to pin point where you want the cursor on one of the Desire HD builds. All you have to do is put your finger on the text and it magnifies it for improved accuracy, similar to the iphone really but it works a treat. Saying that though, this improvement over positioning the cursor may have something to do with why it isnt compatible with the Desire HD builds yet. I'm not a programmer but I should imagine it would just be a case of modifying the script to get this to work.
I have not messed with the new Gingerbread keyboard yet, but does the zoom or curser location feature packaged with the keyboard or is that some other sort of small application?
I use Smart Keyboard so i switch between the HTC keyboard and the iPhone keyboard.
(I find Black or darker keyboards harder to type outside, compared to lighter or white keyboards)
A friend emailed me the Gingerbread keyboard and I'm not exactly where to install it?
/SD/Android applications?

I think you have a point with cursor placement, it is the same no matter which keyboard you use. I were just clutching at straws when I suggested it. I'm not a chef or programmer so dont have a clue how to fix the Gingerbread keyboard with the Desire HD builds. I know you have to move the app and lib files into the system directory for CM6, MIUI and I have heard Desire builds, it seems it is only the Desire HD builds where there is a problem as force error pops up.
Maybe soon Gingerbread keyboard will be available with any build, or someone releases a fix for it.
+1 to this, I would LOVE to see a Gingerbread keyboard on MDJ Desire HD!
+ 1 here.
Hope the Android ROM chiefs incorporate it in their next releases while we wait for a gingerbread ROM
+1,, i hope to see this work on hd desire builds too!
as i mentioned in ur other thread i found it i'll also post the link here for those hunting the famous gingerbread keyboard http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=875202

Thanks for the link. It says in the link provided that the build they are using is a cm6 build. However I have downloaded the relevant apk for 2.2 desire_hd2 build and installed it without any problems. After ticking the box in settings and selecting Gingerbread keyboard, the same force close issue comes up.
It seems the Android keyboard works with every build apart from the Desire HD build. Lets hope a solution is found soon.
Just wanna subscribe to this thread
WTH is this stickied?
There isn't even a dummies guide to running Android on a HD2 stickied (even though the threads exist), yet this thread gets stickied?

what's special about it is that we are all INSTALL ADICTS and just have to try it out coz it's out there ....and what others have working must be working on our HD2 with the latest ROM too ...
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

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.
Hey Guys,
Can anyone tell me how can I get the swype to work on the X8, i've installed it and it runs, i select to use the keyboard BUT when it shows up and I swipe it seems to be off by a lot on the swype, like if the keys werent calibrated and adjusted to the screen swypes. Any idea on how i can get this wonderfull app running on the X8, since I had it on my Nokia 5800 this was the fastest way to text, now I can't handle the keyboard either htc nor android live up to the swyping technique!
Thanks in advance for your help.

Thanks for the advice, I downloaded and tried this one BUT after I restarted the phone and I select the typing area the keyboard won't come up, I have to select the Android or HTC one again, I un-installed it and installed again but the keyboard swiping doesn't really work quite the same as SWYPE because it kinda releases the motion in the middle of a slide. I will try GO keyboard now just cause I rather swyping than typing.
