I thought I was the only one who loved that keyboard. Those arrows are lifesavers! Anyway I just use perfect keyboard to make one with arrows for now. You can customize it too so that's a plus.
Indeed these arrows help BIGtime... wish to have it back...
It should be an option.
Look at the screenshots in the OP
There is always Thumb Keyboard in the market.
It has arrows.

You can use the gingerbread keyboards and hold the space bar and motion up and the arrows are there.

Yeah get the gingerbread keyboard from the market. Hold the space bar and slide your finger up. Hold it again and slide your finger down to get the keyboard back to it's original state.

I switched to Smart Keyboard Pro the other day and like it better than stock. It has a huge spacebar (maybe the longest of any other keyboard out there (and I've tried them all)
It seems more responsive than stock (I type fast ) and there's tons of skins and adjustments (like key height) which are great...
Smart KB Pro is what I use also.
I have been using it in my last 4 phones. I have tried every KB there is and always keep coming back to SKBP every time.
Im having a hard time finding a decent keyboard for the Rezound. Here is the issue, I really don't like the standard HTC keyboard. The buttons are backwards as far as Im concerned.
Problem is when I try a different one, ICS keyboard from the market, swype etc they are way too small because of the Rezound screen. Also when I say too small I mean the width in addition to the height.
Ive seen a few keyboards where you can actually mod the height but not the width, which I honestly dont get. Well my primary problem is hitting the letter next to the one I actually want because the keys aren't wide enough.
Is there any keyboard out there thats basically the standard ASOP keyboard, but the same size as the HTC one, that would be perfect for me. I cant seem to find one.

I quite like GO Keyboard
I seriously need a new keyboard too. I loved swype on the incredible. It was beast mode, I could text and type as fast as typing on my computer. I can't find a decent keyboard on this thing. I can't use swype because it breaks and can't swype no where near as fast as I could on the incredible. I tried swiftkey and didn't really like that either. I currently use the trace on the HTCkeyboard and I can't stand it either. It's no where near as accurate as swype.
Does anyone know of some swypelike keyboards that don't break on the Rezound?

I have my EVO 3d pretty much exactly how I want it. 1st question is if I up grade I will have to re install everything won't I?
2nd, what new features will I get?
The evo 3D wasn't built for ice cream sandwich, so you can't get all of what ICS has to offer. I personally am disappointed with ics on my 3D.

Actually ics is available for evo 3d as an upgrade, there is a new version of sense 3.6 which gives you ics plus some nice features on sense, new homescreen and dock, there's some minor tweaks, to many to go into detail. Now sense 4 is as available but it was not designed for the evo, so there are minor things which don't work but it's overall much nicer with more shortcuts and improvements. Hope this helps, Sense 3.6 with ics will improve overall performance, minor over gb but improvements.

you're right - the evo3d was not built for ICS - but HTC has built ICS for the evo3d
ICS has been integrated into a full system update to the phone , unrooted
so. you get everything the evo3d has to offer - 3d pictures and video, 4g wimax, and everything else supported by the makers of the phone
plus a better and faster system with much better battery life and features , over gingerbread
.
so what are you talking about?

I don't understand what you mean. You build the software for the hardware not the other way around. It's just a little tiny bit easier to change software than hardware...

its ok - i dont think anyone really understood
to answer the OP - you wont have to reinstall anything - the device will update itself (if we are talking about official htc OTA update) --- if we are talking about rooted developed roms, then yes , reinstall or restore a backup
also read here to find out new features - http://developer.sonymobile.com/wp/...ical-differences-between-gingerbread-and-ics/

wow! if this is your answer, then technically any phone that did not come stock with ICS was "not built for ICS" I personally think ics is way better than GB! Multi tasking is a pretty awesome feature! As far as I know, ICS was designed to work better on dual core phones... the EVO3D was one of the first dual core phones sprint released, so I would say that it utilizes ICS perfectly

It's disappointing that HTC gives you half a** quick settings in the pull down menu for ICS. No on/off selection for wifi nor auto screen orientation. You can't even add settings or change them.
Tapping on total memory to pull up and close apps takes over 10 seconds at times to load running apps.
I'm definitely rooting this replacement phone.

Well there's also the free dropbox storage for a year. I don't remember whether its +3 or +5 GB, either way its a boon.

Stock ICS on the Evo 3D is great. It's much smoother than stock GB, has some nice new features and there are a few ICS and higher only apps(like Chrome) that you can't install on GB.
Why aren't you running JB?

I had this same frustration as well, until I started using Go Switch widget. Try it. I'm sure it'll solve most of your issues.

I was thinking of downloading a 3rd party status bar widget, but I hear that it consumes battery faster.

I upgraded, not sure how I feel about it yet, but I will have to get used to the new notification sounds
For one, I've never had the double blur 3d bug that soooo plagued GB when viewing 3d pics in gallery.
Two, the 3.0 kernel has given much better power management.
I am having no issues with ICS and very happy with the OS upgrade.

I think ICS is not as smooth as GB, but there are some cool features. The screen off battery life is awesome, but the battery life seems worst when multitasking. I only got about 3 1/2 hours while listening to music, web surfing, texting, ect. On zr3d v 4.3 I got about 4 1/2 hours.
Im really like my ics rom.. d3rp drama.. Chrome and Google Now..

I got the email sometime last night. Works great for the most part. Freezes at long sentence a lot though and just stops trying to make it out. Like all of a sudden "I GIVE UP!" but it's a beta can't hassle it too much.
Very nice. I'm already ready to ditch Swype

I am loving this so far. Swiftkey has always been great but this makes them almost untouchable now. I wonder who will buy them up now.
P .S. I don't know how long the sentences have to be to make it lock up but I wrote this whole thing in flow and it seems to be doing it just fine.

Been using swift key a long time, definitely like flow.. But it isn't as good as swype "used" to be. Flow struggles with a lot of words that have back to back same letters like "kiss".. It also struggles swiping words I added to my dictionary.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
I hate that in flow mode you can't swipe backwards to delete the previous word or swipe downward to hide the keyboard.
I think SwiftKey is fine the way it is without flow, I'm just way faster and more accurate at tapping. If you are using two thumbs then you can tap letters on the far left of the keyboard, then far right, and far left again very quickly (like typing "mama" = taptaptaptap) and with flow you have to travel the length of the keyboard three times.
Anyway that's my 2ยข, I'm using the SwiftKey Beta but I have that flow sh*t turned off.
Sent from my EVO
I'm also using SwiftKey minus the flow. Not a big fan of swiping, because my thumbs are so big I can't really see where in at on the keyboard. The keyboard itself is really nice though, prediction and auto correct are really good too.
