Octopus Keyboard for android - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does android have a keyboard like this available? It is also like the new bb10 keyboard that RIM featured awhile back.

I never seen something like that... but anyways search "keyboard" in the Play Store, and start to try

I have but did not find anything. The closes is the new swift key keyboard that's under beta, but it does not offer the gesture feature which I liked the most about the bb10 keyboard.
I'm surprise no one has done this?!

Tablet apps on CM7?

Do we get the tablet apps when we install CM7? Such as the tablet Market, the SwiftKey keyboard, etc.? I'm curious.

Well the ICS leaked apps are running pretty well. Amazon Appstore is running good as well. I have also install the GetJar store and I was able to get a few apps off from there. Look to see what you can install. I have replaced the Stock Browser with Firefox from the Market.

swiftkey tablet is awesome, theres a free trial too. does a regular keyboard and a split one for thumbs.
BTW, Pulse is a fantastic news app, works and looks great on tablets.

[Q] Siri Alternatives For Android ?

Hi, i came to know about an app called siri in iPhone 4S. its a virtual assistant.
I used vlingo in android. but its not even comparable to Siri.
Anybody knows any good siri alternatives for android ? I googled and found out some.(reviewsnext.com/2012/02/02/siri-alternatives-for-android) But.. anything better than these ? pls share your personal views.
It looks like Evi is the front-runner as the Android alternative to Siri:

I tried Evi but all the time I got server busy error..

I read that evi can't do siri style things like open apps or diary entries in calendar etcetera.

From what i've read, it's a work in progress. People seem to be happy with recent updates and improvements so it's a hurry up and wait deal for now.
How about Iris or SpeakToIt Assistant?
Iris. (alpha)
I've been using Iris for few months already and not long ago there was an update to it which makes it pretty much smoother and faster. I'd say go and try it, no regrets
Iris work pretty well, you should definitely give it a shot.

ICS Apps

Now that there are a a ton of stable roms running ICS for our 3D I was hoping we could share some of the apps we have found that are only available for devices running Android 4.0.
The only app I was really able to find is Boid. It is a pretty neat twitter client that is designed specifically for Android 4.0. I have been using it for a few days and I really like the snappiness of the application.
Has anyone else found any cool applications that are only available on the new version of android?
The official gmail app has such a nice ICS theme IMO...
Also Chrome Beta for android is 4.0 exclusive and is a really nice browser

I competely forgot about chrome beta, it is awesome because it syncs everything from my desktop and laptop. Definitely a must have for anyone running ICS

Boid looks great but still lacks some necessary features for me.
It's not exactly an "ICS App" because you can install it on 2.2 and up, but Solid Explorer Beta is the best file manager app I have ever used, and it really fits in with the ICS feel. If you're the type of person who wants some sort of visual continuity between apps, then this is the file explorer to use on ICS.
Chrome Beta is not really working to well with my phone. I get rendering problems when using on screen keyboard. Am I the only one?
same here. i WANT to use chrome beta, but the rendering issues make it a non-starter for me.
i've tried the ics keyboard and swiftkey 3 beta. but even ignoring the keyboard rendering issues, it just acts flakey regardless.

Wow... Thanks. This is one of the reasons I run an AOSP rom. Now if I can just get the 4.2.2 text app working on TW...
Awesome. Although it will be very hard to persuade me from using swiftkey, ever.
