A few hours ago i bought the "Ultra Keyboard" app from the market (you can get a free 24 hour trial)
Its alot better than the defauilt keyboard with alot more options.
i find the default keyboard is good. because of the small screen.
but you could always try better keyboard.
How about swype. Its great and works fine on wildfire.

It seems that you won't find any .apk of this soft, better keyboard or any "cracked/paid once for 10M users ) as it's illegal.
Although, i'm using Better Keyboard with the iphone skin (every Better keyboard skins are FREE, better keyboard WORTH ITS PRICE)
I find it "more" accurate than the default HTC keyboard, I set my phone to "micro-vibrate" each time I type a letter, disabled auto-correction and thats just PERFECT!
Also, you can "scroll" the keyboard from right to left & versa to easily switch the "qw/azerty" keyboard to the "1=ABC / 2 BCD" keyboard, and thats awesome when you're drunk / lazy / not in the mood / have an hangover... tested and approved
I like the "Scandinavian keyboard". Its awesome, especially if you live in Sweden, Denmark etc.
I use slideIT keyboard.Its better than the default HTC keyboard.
Any keyboards with smileys enabled in sms? Just like the htc_ime mod by jonas.
The issue is that htc_ime mod isn't built for a small screen like this.

I tried a handful of droidx keyboard ports and none of them worked. Anyone know which one works without a fc...
much appreciated.
This one works....no FC or anything
but "back space/delete" and "m" (next to each other) are not super accurate
Think I tried that one already.
Started using smart keyboard and it is as good if not a suitable replacement since I can adjust the height of the keys

I just installed that one listed above and it works fine. However, i myself use smart keyboard pro because of the adjustable key hights and also i like a darker skin.
I am currently using SwiftKey, it is better than the default keyboard and in some ways a little better than swype...
use ultra keyboard. its got multi toch and you can get a skin for it
Thumb Keyboard works well if you have fat fingers! Several skins each in several colors.
I use slideIT keyboard , I love the big keys

download "keyboard from android 2.3" from the market. get the donation version where u can adjust the size of the keys. its basically the gingerbread keyboard that is most comparable to the droid x one

getting a little annoyed with the choice of keypads, none are quite right for me. I find the majority of them the space bar is too small and im constantly hitting the full stop instead. I like the swiftkey keypad for its predictive properties but the space bar is the same size as normal. Ive tried the iphone emulator keypad which has a much better size keypad but not the predictive options. Although ive only tried the free version so far, is anyone using the paid for version and does it have better prediction? Currently im trying the perfect keypad free version and it seems a bit better, the space bar is a decent size and basically looks like the giingerbread keypad.
Annoyingly i know the perfect keypad for me, its the htc one, ive used it on 4 different phones and it was perfect but ive not seen anyone port it to the SGS2 so far?
What keypads are people using? what are their pros and cons?
Smart keyboard allows you to customize the keyboard however you'd like
[Bigger space bar in your case?]
I'm using swiftkey

I am using swiftkey X .its very very good. the text prediction is pretty good.I recommend it. the app is paid but worth every cent.
From yesterday I am using touchpal input beta (one has to sign up for beta invite) . its pretty neat too. Its a combination of swype like gestures+ predictive text. worth a try.
Im also using swift key x, i love it! its amazing, it has so many features like it can even go through your sms/emails to "learn" how you type i.e. all your slang automatically. Worth the money imo.
yes ive got swiftkey x too, its prediction seems to eb the best there is, i just find the space bar too small, if i could have swiftkey with the size of space bar that the iphone emulator keypad has it would be perfect
Hackers keyboard (from XDA). Much better than the stock keyboard.
"Keyboard from Android 2.3" is my favorite. I use the "+" paid version. Same as stock gingerbread keyboard, only it's more customizable.

Smart keyboard :-D love the droid x theme

+1 for swift key
One more vote for swiftkey. It really speeds up your typing.
SwiftKey x is great, i only wish we could edit the theme, remove the SwiftKey button and question mark button and make the spacebar bigger and it would be perfect, anyone know a way todo that?

Using stock. I have swiftkey but I didn't like it. Maybe I just need more time with it.
Using stock. I had swiftkey and didn't like it that much. Going to try it again though, as many people love it.
GB keyboard found on the market.

Here is the HTC keyboard for the SGS2, works perfectly, looks great. By far the best android keyboard

Swiftkey x with the HTC keyboards UI and the ability to edit the layout would make my perfect keyboard!
For some reason the HTC keyboard has a less responsive spacebar and worse autocorrect it is nice though!

I keep hearing people say Swype and for the life of me I have tried it, but it just seems to make top many mistakes

Lol. What keyboard are you using? If you typed that with Swype (timely typo), then maybe try to adjust the sensitivity and maybe checkout the tutorial. I was having issues too until I played around with it. Now it's my go to keyboard. Good luck
I use perfect keyboard. I find that swiping a single finger can't possibly touch the speed of two thumbs. Plus I like the split keyboard in landscape as without it is a bitbof a stretch.

Thumb keyboard

I use ics keyboard from market. If you look around in the setting menu you will found some nice themeing options. Cool ones...free

Another one for Thumb Keyboard here. I've tried just about everything out there and always come back to it, the best one available in my opinion.
Smart keyboard here.

I used to use Better Keyboard before it was taken off the Market, but now I use ICS keyboard previously mentioned. If I ever used landscape to type, I'd grab a thumb keyboard.
Just picked up Swift Key X for. 49!

I switch between swype and thumb keyboard.
+1 for SwiftkeyX. And yep.. its on sale! Grab it before the price returns to normal.

LOVE better keyboard.
+1 for the ICS keyboard in the market. Great keyboard. I've got swiftkey but I just found it kind of meh.
I use Swype and I have a terrible time going back to any keyboard that doesn't have some sort of swiping interaction.
I have pretty large hands and I can reach all the way across the screen with my thumb, so I can hold and use the keyboard with the same hand. I don't think I'd be able to do that without a swiping keyboard.
I use swiftkey tablet X but there is one thing that annoys me to not end. The little area to the left of the "a" I seem to always hit vibrates when you click it but results in no "a".

Swype, but I use it like a standard keyboard (no 'swyping'). I use it because it has a hidden keyboard which makes cursor movement and other editing keys available. I came from a phone that had a mini joystick which made cursor movements around a text box very easy.
If you are wondering, to bring up the hidden keyboard you swype from the swype button to the right to the EN/'World' button.

Quite a few keyboards in the market have hidden cursors. Perfect keyboard and Gingerbread keyboard (by Stephen Lin I think) have hold, slide up space bar to get cursors.

Any suggestions on what a good keyboard to use on my Touchpad?
I'm currently using some free one called Tablet Keyboard I think. It's ok but when in portrait view, i find it a bit tedious to keep switching between left and right half of the keyboard/screen.

Hackers keyboard is by far the best i've come accross yet.
swype (the new beta works perfectly on touchpad) or swiftkey tablet x for me
Thumb keyboard for me
Multilingual works well for me. Very configurable.
EDIT: I meant Multiling, danged autospell messed me up

Thumb keyboard or Swype, have them both, since I broke my right wrist Swype has been a lifesaver, lol.
if only the default keyboard can be slimmer and smaller. that will just do the job. anyone know how to do it?
or maybe port the webos keyboard
Swiftkey is definitely my favorite

For writibg for Android Headlines I've had to experiment with both adaptxt tablet keyboard, which isn't out yet and with the latest Swiftkey for tablets, swiftkey is close to stock and allows changes too

SwiftKey all the way
I've tried Smarter Keyboard, Swift Key X, GO Keyboard, and the Stock keyboard.
The predictions in Swift Key are the best I've ever seen. I bought it for my DesireHD and that worked so well. Until now I was using the Beta 3 on my TP but it's expired, so no more predictions
Now I have to buy the Tablet version because the normal one isn't quite suited for a 10" screen.
BTW, GO Keyboard is terrible. I like how minimal SwiftKey is. I don't want some stupid shortcut bar taking up room on the screen like in GO!
SwiftKey tablet is great, love the split keyboard and the predictions.

I've tried them all.and when you compare configuration possibilities and customization nothing beats Thumb Keyboard in any field. Swiftkey may have a little better prediction but nit enough to warrant me switching over from Thumb
Sent from my cm_tenderloin using Tapatalk 2
I'm using the stock keyboard most of the time since it has the best accuracy multi finger typing as on a physical keyboard.
Thumb Keyboard is the best I've used. (old screenshot below)
You can also check float and split keyboard. It has 4 different layout. I dont really use the prediction, so i dont know how the prediction is compared to other keyboard. But, it definitely has one of the best keyboard layout option i would say. These screenshots are two out of the 4 options.
Thank me if i helped

another keyboard worth to try superkeyboard . name says it all its super
Swype Beta FTW! Best keyboard on the market right now. Ironically its actually not on the market... Oops, I meant play store. Swyping> letter typing. An average Swype user inputs more words per minute than a skilled conventional "button presser"
