I personally love using HTC_IME MOD (HTC keyboard)...
I want to know what others use and why...
i am running 2.3.5 but i am using the old android 2.2 stock android keyboard. i like that it doesn't have space in between the letters so the keys are bigger. and i text a lot and i think the bigger the keys are, the faster i can text.

On my Droid 3 I mostly use the physical keyboard or else Swype. On my Touchpad I use Hacker's Keyboard since it has a regular IBM based keyboard.
I use SwiftKey x

I have used swype, but slideit seems to provide better accuracy. Any opinions?
The default Japanese keyboard. It can either be in qwerty mode or the old phone 12 button mode.
Plus, it has a wider array of Japanese emoticons like this (^_^) and more.

I find swype awesome especially if you tweak the speed vs. accuracy settings to find what works best for you
Swype seems the most accurate to me
I like ShapeWriter. Pretty accurate and fun to use!

Smart Keyboard Pro. Hands down.
Used SwiftKey(and X), the iphone clones, better keyboard, swype, slideit, stock, gingerbread and all of it just gets killed by SKP.
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 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.

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?

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!

Just curious what keyboard everyone is using. The S4 is defaulted to the Samsung keyboard which uses SwiftKey, but the S4 also comes with Swype. Are you using one of those, or are you using another? Maybe the SwiftKey or Swype from the market to gain some more options? Another keyboard?
What are you using, and why do you prefer it?
I'm using SwiftKey from the market. The stock Samsung keyboard does not have auto correct which is not something I can deal with.

I'm using stock 4.2.2 keyboard because I like the Holo UI look.
Kii. It has the option for the top number row like the stock keyboard, but it has autocorrect. I own Swiftkey also, but I hate it.
I use swiftkey from the market although the stock keyboard is kinda nice with the number row on top
installed the AOSP 4.2.2 keyboard. got so use to it when i was on my nexus, why change..
Check out the Swype keyboard I modded for a dedicated number row:

I prefer swype like interface.
I have used both swiftkey (before swype-like interface) and afterwards, swype, thumb keyboard, and Slideit.
I prefer using swiftkey slightly.
Swype is probably the best in regards to sliding.
Slideit is nice but has a slight lag that messes me up.
Swiftkey has some predictive stuff which can both help or hinder.
I think you can't go wrong with any of the above 3.
For tablets, I just use thumb keyboard.
for me either stock 4.2 keyboard or samsung galaxy s4's keyboard love them both
I like the stock keyboard and Google keyboard from the market. The stock keyboard is tough to type with after having a number of drinks

Haha. I use SwiftKey, in Pitch color scheme. Jelly Bean keyboard https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jlsoft.inputmethod.latin.jelly.free is great too. Just like the stock Google keyboard but with more secondary functions on the keys.
As someone who purchased both swype and swiftkey, I personally use the Samsung keyboard, though I must add that I took the apk from the international version and changed some things to make it work how I wanted it to. Currently I m testing the Google keyboard from the 4.3 leak and its pretty good, haven't used it very long though.

Pay for SwiftKey. Best app purchase I have ever made.

Wish Swype would for allow for customer autotexts (abbreviations). I use about 100 of these daily.
I used to use swiftkey before I came to the s4 but now I dont seem to think it looks good on the phone it just looks plan so as of now im using stock even though I serverly hate the keyboard because I keep making mistakes on it.

I've used SwiftKey for nearly a year now. I did try the 4.2 stock keyboard for a week or two but found my way back to SwiftKey. The predictive capabilities are phenomenal and can really save you time.
I like the stock Samsung key board. The numbers on top are great. My only concern is the dictionary. I have added words to the Samsung dictionary, but they still dont show up when texting. Has anyone had success with adding words to the dictionary?
