Does anyone know of a particularly good Gingerbread Keyboard with better dictionaries and symbol-inclusive autocorrect? I used to use one like that a while ago, I believe it was bundled with Doc's and Stefunel's Rom Kitchen, and it worked great on previous ROM's. Now I'm on Serendipity 6.2 and the Gingerbread keyboard kind of sucks, it won't even get simple words with apostrophe's like "I'm". I tried copying the .apk and libraries from one of the old ROM zip's I had using the good keyboard, but it just FC's when I select it.
Would anyone know where I can find a standalone flashable Gingerbread keyboard that's better than the one included in Serendipity?
Well you can use the one off the market. Or search .cause I know there is one posted in themes and apps

there is one in the market that seems a little bigger, also has evo style cursor buttons that you can get to by swiping up on the space bar.
the pay version has themes and can adjust the spacing between keys
the developer is steven lin if you are interested.

Does anyone know of a keyboard like the stock froyo keyboard packaged in attn1's liberated 2.2(latest builds). I mainly am just looking for a good keyboard that has the phonepad style keyboard, which also has T9 predicted capabilities while using the phone keypad layout.
Thanks!
Also... I need it to be compatible with Cm6.1. Doesn't matter too much if it is tested on the latest 6.1.1 build.

Smart keyboard pro has it. As well as the modified HTC keyboard somewhere in our forum. I think it says modified by Jonas or other. In the htc ime thread...

I have tried several different modified versions of the HTC keyboard(which is the one that I want), but have not had any luck getting it to work on the Aria running CM6.1. I take that back... i havent tried it recently since 6.1 was released, but im assuming it will still be the same issue(not showing up on the screen, or getting an fc as soon as it does).
Could you please point me in the direction of known working version of the HTC Keyboard if possible?
Thanks a lot
Have you tried this version? h ttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7915283&postcount=2551

Look through the keyboard options, I believe there is a option for a T9 style keyboard, among others.

Seems as if the chefs are including the new Gingerbread keyboard in all there builds and to be honest I hate it compared to the 2.2.1 original froyo keyboard. I have done some searching without any luck
Can someone post apk of the keyboard?
swype
dude u r right but i tell u smthn, try the swipe keyboard, its nice n quick. srry for the 2.2.1 keyboard, i guess ur out of luck
Go to the android hacking and development forum and search there, they got a bunch of keyboards in apk's.

Are there any 3rd party keyboards that work on liberated froyo. I really liked the droid x one for cm6. Besides swype. I don't like any of the market ones

Have you tried Smart Keyboard? SwiftKey, SlideIt, 8pen, Better Keyboard all suck. Get Smart Keyboard, skin it nice, and it's the best keyboard, imo. They have exact look-a-like Gingerbread skins, iPhone skins, and a few other cool ones.
I am using stock gingerbread keyboard on my Liberated ROM and it's pretty useful. Tried better keyboard, smart keyboard, swype etc.
i always thought the htc keyboard was the best normal keyboard. my favorite not-normal keyboard is swype.
I really like the one that comes on the Galaxy S phones (not Swype, which is ok for just english). I think it was just called Samsung IME, but was really useful as an English keyboard, and switched to Korean super quick.
I guess if you want a good keyboard that does both you have to get one made by Samsung, but that's just for my needs.

Ya should try the gingerbread kb that's on the market. Closest to the sense kb, and maybe better, it's been forever since I had sense installed.

Just wondering is it possible to use custom notification bars, dialers, and keyboard themes without flashing a new rom? I found some notification bars and dialers Id like to use from the Magnolia rom yet keep my HTC Sense. I dont use any launchers or anything. I prefer HTC Sense over the others.
I am rooted and I do run the HeyItsLou Kernel v8
You can use metamorph or ninjamorph, free from the market, to apply the images.
Or you can create an update zip containing the apk's and flash them in recovery.
I tried Metamorph, but nothing happened.
If you are running a deodexed 2.2 or 2.3 ROM you can use the Kitchen.

Somewhere in there I found some cool skins for HTC SENSE. This will only change a few things though. Not dialer and keyboards.
But themed Keys are easy to find. I'm sure you know all this, but I'm just trying to participate.

Do you have HTC HUB? And is it HTC SENSE 2.0?
I haven't had any problems installing them, but I'll try to help as much a possible.
Install just like a normal THIRD PARTY .APK
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Not familiar with HTC Hub. Not even sure what version of HTC Sense I have. I dont know how to check for versions.
Me either (dont know how to check sense version.)
But there are some signs. When you press personalize, does a path drawer come up and have Skins, Wallpaper, Scenes, Widgets, Apps, Shortcuts, Folders, etc..?
If it just has the last four mentioned when you tap and hold your home screen, then you don't have HTC SENSE 2.0
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
When I hit personalize I get scenes, home wallpaper, and default ring tone. Im almost positive I have Sense v1.
So how can I get these things to work with Metamorph? I have all the files downloaded and ready to go.
I'm not sure, because I never needed or wanted to use MetaMORPH.
Can you post a screenie of your Home and Personalize menu?
And what phone do you have? I'm sure you just unpack the zip in MetaMORPH.
I don't know much about it.

I have the HTC Incredible through Verizon.
Okay. So now we know your stock ROM was Sense 1.0, what Sense Rom do you have now?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Oh, and a really nice ROM for DInc w/ Sense 2.0 is Myns Warm Z twopointtwo. You can change the skins to the ones you have downloaded.
By far my Favorite ROM for DInc when I had mine two days ago. Lol.

The stock HTC sense rom. I havent flashed any custom roms. I like the default one from HTC. I just want to change some minor things. I have a dialer picked out. I want to get rid of the verizon branding in my notification bar, and I want to change the battery icon and thats it.
Okay then you have to use metamorph. I'm pretty sure there's a tutorial somewhere around here. On the Myns Warm thread, there's a video tutorial on using MetaMORPH to change keyboards. I'm positive it works the same for battery and dialer.

After some researching I think my issue is with the amount of space in the /system folder. Only issue is I cant see that folder with Adao File Manager.

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.

Because its simple. Don't get me wrong, Thumb Keyboard is great, but its a bit too chunky for me.
