Is there a way to port the keyboard over from the Samsung ics to gingerbread. I love the easy access to the numbers on top and cannot find a good keyboard that has them. I don't want to goto ics yet I tried it and it was OK. So I know I can. That is not the answer I want
There's an ICS Keyboard (by Binary Bulge) in the market - has the numbers along the top. Works great on GB.

Thank u for the info I got ultra keyboard and works great
Give Swiftkey 3 Beta a try. I hated Swiftkey X because the spacebar was so small but the new one is just perfect.
Does it have the numbers at the top on it's own
Ah, I somehow missed the whole line about having numbers on top. My apologies.
So which keyboard have the numbers on the top (i meant has their own line) not on the top of the another char? Just like ICS from Colective ROM?

+1 for SwiftKey beta 3. Best keyboard I've ever used.

Someone help me out here. I'm tired of the stock Samsung Keypad. The keys in the QWERTY keyboard are too tiny for my fingers, and 3x4 is fine, but not that great
Which one do you think is the best?
Personally I use the gingerbread keyboard from the market.
The keys are a bit bigger, and it's text prediction is amazing. And you can tap on any word you've typed and make corrections, even if it wasn't the last word typed. If you know what I mean.
I agree ^^ I love tthe gingerbread keyboard

Try SwiftKey x beta! It's great!
@ barqers & ezsoulja :
Thanks but I've already tried out the Gingerbread keyboard. But it doesn't have a 3x4 keypad. So its hard to text while you are at the breakfast table!
@ Humpie :
I'll check out SwiftKey X now! Thanks
Smart kayboard pro using it since I've SG3
Try "Touchpal" (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.cootek.smartinput ).
Its the best and fastest 3x4 i've ever had. The keys are large enough, "Slide down" numbers are just awesome
hi
try big button keyboard its nice and big and easy to use free and paid version available in the Market
im using it for quite some time very confy for my big fingers
@ 2happy2beu : Woah! I really like Touchpal. Its got both 3x4 and Qwerty. And its so easy to change the case and input numbers. Thanks!
@ haree : I just saw the screenshots of "Big Button Keyboard". Looks like it'll need a long time getting used to. But thanks anyway. Appreciate the help
Check out "MultiLing Keyboard".

Now I'm completely confused! Every one seems the better than the other!
I recommend Gingerbeard Keyboard 2.3+ (paid version). It is the best I've ever had, I can't live without it. Paid version has a little bit more useful functions than stock Gingerbeard Keyboard. Also these are themes and customizable buttons (size).

True!
Best keyboard ever.
Great options like plugins and dictionaries.
In setting you can select a lot of things like:
keyboard themes
input languages
::wider keys::
::keyboard size::
and much more, so give it a try.

Yeah. I like this one!
If you use english or any ''popular'' language get swype beta, it's just awesome when you get used to it and it doest require much precision with your fingers so its easy to use, with other languages i find the gingerbread keyboard to be the best
SWYPE is Best........... nobody can overtake this
I installed the Ice Cream Sandwich keyboard on my DHD, and it works perfectly. Then I installed it on my SGT 10.1, an it installs just fine but when I try to go to the settings it force closes every time. Is it not supposed to work on the SGT? Btw, I'm using Overcome 2.0.0

Just a fyi : the ice cream keyboards for lower versions than Android 4.0 don't use the sophisticated prediction model used by the ICS keyboard (which depends on 4.0 APIs). The author of the keyboard expressed it well. It is a migration of the old prediction model with the new theme and suggestion lint. It also hasn't bigram prediction.
to be honest, you're much better off getting Thumb Keyboard and using the ICS theme!
Looks great and works really well with the Tab!

Sent from my GT-P7500 using Tapatalk
you see the three buttons horizontally at the bottom of the screen in the first screenshot and vertically in the second screenshot, those change the keyboard layout as depicted in the button image (I discovered this by accidentally tapping one and seeing the layout change!)
The additional funky thing about the "offset to right" layout is that thanks to the wonder of multitouch, you can grip the tab with any of the "black" area to the left and the keyboard will still work as normal!

I was just curious as to what keyboard everyone is using on ICS ROMs. I used to use Smart Keyboard Pro, but it hasn't been working as well for me.
And I'm trying to deodex the newest Ineffabilis, but it's not working with the kitchen. Any ideas?
ICS Keyboard from the market. Works well and looks right.
I am using the one from the market too, but I really want the official ICS AOSP keyboard. Seems it won't work right as is, must be a lib or something i'm missing..

I'm using the latest Swype beta. I know the HTC keyboard has swipe input, but I just like the Swype keyboard the best.
Swype beta here, use hackers keyboard for terminal though, in landscape has all the keys need rather then flipping back and forth with different modes

Big fan of Thumbkeyboard here. Tons of great themes (ICS theme is sweet), multiple keyboard layouts, and good support. I use it on both my phone and tablet.

I swap back and forth between swiftkey x and SmartKeyboard Pro.
I love using the compact qwerty version of Smart KB Pro in portrait for rocket fast texting, but swiftkey x has hands down the best word prediction.

I was very happy but I decided to give ICS keyboard by Johntanmi. THe auto correct on this thing is amazing. I am typing faster with less errors. I love it.

I was using SwiftX, but the ICS keyboard really nice.
I use Swype portrait and smart keyboard pro landscape. Keyboard manager from the market to flip them, been using this setup for over a year with about 15 different roms on 2 different devices.

I just tried that and the keys are tiny. I cant seem to find a regular keyboard that has the keys the same size as the standard HTC keyboard. whats the point of having such a big screen if all you can get is a tiny keyboard for it.

You folks need to try A.I. keyboard. It has a key that allows you to resize the keyboard on the fly. You can make the size of the keyboard as large as you want. I am very happy with it.

Just a suggestion, try SwiftKey 3 Beta, it's free, it has themes that can match a lot of colors and it's the best predictive typing I've used.

Yeah I don't like swiftkey. I really don't like autocorrect at all honestly I just turn it off. Which leads to another reason I want the stock keyboard, the HTC one will not let me turn auto correct off and keep predictions on.
Alright, I got invited to be a beta tester for Swiftkey Flow Keyboard Beta. For those who didn't get an invite, here is a link from the galaxy s3 forums.

I didn't see the Rezzy listed as being compatible. Will it work with our phone?
edit: just tried it and it does work!
It is like swype, and SwiftKey had a baby. This Baby will grow up and be the keyboard that rules all keyboards.
Sent from my Rezound using Tapatalk 2
Thanks for the invite! I definitely see ALOT of potential once the keyboard makes it out of the beta stages. I used to love swiftkey, but then I got used to using the 4.2 keyboard. And right now the 4.2 keyboard is noticeably more responsive and smooth for me so I will keep using it for now but will keep an eye on swift key flow
I didn't use it much, but I prefer Swype for swiping across the keyboard. I'm not sure how to do capital letters, and if you do a wrong word it only shows you 3 selections, with Swype you can scroll through your selections left and right for possible words.
the keyboard that will rule everything comes from SwiftKey pro and thumb keyboard. too many missing settings and themes when swift or swype is involved
Thanks for the link. I love it! Sometimes the "flow" doesn't work, and right now on the XDA app it wouldn't let me predict, but I guess it stores predictions on the SD card?
