[Q] Droid X's keyboard!? whats the big deal? - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i have tried the Droid X's MT keyboard.. it works fine... no complaints.. although the fonts were too small when i tried it back then....
but my point is this......
we already have the Samsung Keypad, which works just fine as a multi touch keyboard, which, in my opinion works better than the droid x's...
i'm not hating the variety at all.. trust me i love variety...but i just wanted to know why people prefer the droid x's keyboard over samsung keypad?

Some roms have the font issue fixed and its amazing. The Samsung keynad doesn't auto correct and the Droid x's one does.

Same thing as the droid x one but it's modded to appear differently

TouchPal Swype-like keyboard

Is anybody using this keyboard on the Rezound ? I'm curious if it has compatibility issues like Swype. I actually like it better than Swype, so I don't mind giving that up from the RAZR if TouchPal still works.

just tried and it "works" but doesnt take up the full screen and doesnt seem to bee very accurate
Damn... It's the most accurate thing I've found on the RAZR. It doesn't fill the width? That's pretty weird...
Thanks for the info.

I don't have any compatibility issues with Swype.

in case somebody else comes across this, I wanted to mention that the current chinese version of TouchPal (5.1.4) seems to work properly with the Rezound (it has some quirks of its own, but I don't think they're specific to the Rezound). it is mentioned elsewhere on xda.
(tested by installing on a best buy demo model )

I'm using touchpal on Rezound mainly because I couldn't find Swype in the market. It's been working perfectly for me. very accurate for my big fingers. That's with my rezound in the Otterbox defender case.

I just got a Razr Maxx

I used to use a Galaxy S and I feel like Razr Maxx is falling behind with multi touch. Sometimes when I type fast, Razr would skip a letter. Also, the vibration is a bit clumsy compared to my previous phone. Other than that I love this phone. Is mine a defective phone ?
The stock keyboard sucks for speed typing. Try a 3rd party one.
Im using thumb keyboard and theres no lag.
As stated the stock keyboard isn't all that great. There are plenty of keyboard apps in the market to choose from. I like Flex T9 myself.

The included Swype KB seems pretty snappy.

One vote here for Swiftkey.

Yeah noticed that also. Even with 3rd party

The screen sometimes does not register a Swype for me but overall Swype feels the same as on my tablet or previous phone. I do wish the sgs2 had been on big red though. Honestly the razr maxx just feels weird
yeah.. I tried couple keyboards but they are stil lthe same... I'm typing really slow right now..
I noticed this as well when I had a Razr. Even seemed like it scrolled a little funny when I was scrolling through apps or browsing websites.
SwiftKey X is my keyboard of choice. I will admit the keyboard does not work as well on the Razr as it did on my Thunderbolt. But i think its because the Razr has a larger screen res so the keys are smaller than they were on my Tbolt. Not sure.

Do you guys think there will be an update to fix this problem?

The keys not registering that well. There is a buy one get one free smartphone thing going on the VWS website and my brother wants to get a new phone. So I'm gonna returen mine, order a new one and see how it is.
I had the razr and the razr maxx... it's the same on both. I use swiftkey

Can't find a keyboard that keeps up with me and has good auto correct

I type really fast and I can't find a keyboard that keeps up with me. I've tried swift key, as well as 5 other apps. Its weird because swift key keeps up with me on my dads evo 3d. Is this screen just not as responsive or something?

I've been using smart keyboard by dexilog since i got my phone. You can try it out if you haven't already. As for the screen, i haven't had any issues typing so far. Besides that you may want to look into the new swiftkey beta thats been out for a while and see if that makes a difference.
Honestly I have noticed the same thing. It seems to hang no matter which keyboard I use. Definitely can't type as quick as I did on my iPhone. Try clearing up RAM. Seems to help out a lot. Background processes can affectively the performance of the aftermarket keyboards.

Affect* Damn autocorrect. Haha.

You can try disabling haptic feedback. It helps quite a bit on keyboards.
Try latest swiftkey... Very very impressed with it.!!

Dumb question, but your phone came with Swype...have you tried it? Once you make friends with that method, it's insanely fast.

SwiftKey FLOW beta

Anybody else have the opportunity to try this new SwiftKey out?
Super cool and pretty..
Just installed and it is more lagged than SwiftKey 3 was.. Surely slower than the JB keyboard..
The thing I liked most about 3 was that it seemed real responsive...
OF course i understand it is still beta..
Okay update:
*I don't work for SwiftKey or anything Btw.
But I made SwiftKey A system app and did a reboot. Now **** is moving smooth..
Love it. Very close call with the Android 4.2 keyboard.. Love them both..

Never had to convert it to a system app, it is smooth and fast enough for me. I'm loving this keyboard! I will for sure be purchasing when it gets an official release. I haven't used swype in a long time but this feels much better.
Sent from my Amaze
It's okay, I don't know swype is still best at what it does. All swift key needs is multiple options to pick from, it only gives you one option.
