Can somebody tell me if it is possible somehow to turn voice input from stock keyboard? I looked in settings but couldn't find it. Also, do you use other keyboards? I got used to use HTC IME by jonasl, but now on 1280x720 it is obviously to small for the screen. I am testing Smart Keyboard now which is pretty fimiliar to HTC IME and has the option of voice input. I don't like Swipe as I never swipe, got used to "click" symbols. I would continue using stock keyboard if not the lack of voice input.

I use smart keyboard Pro. Been using it since the X10 days, love it.
Im using "Ice cream sandwich keyboard free"
works well, and gives you the voice input button there too
I'm typing quite a bit quicker on this keyboard as well, seems to be working for me.
give it a go
I've always used thumb keyboard on any android device I use. Has good customization options and keyboard themes.
I use ICS keyboard full ..
It have a good arabic letters layout, and I use gestures to change language, close keyboard , and delete last word ..
I works great in this big screen and just take a little space of the screen ..
even I already purchased Swiftkey X, but I feel more comfortable with ICS keyboard ..

Hey guys,
I'm not a fan of the new jb stock keyboard from google as it's too slow to register responses when i type on it (keyboard style, not with my thumbs or pecking).
I tried just now to install the ICS stock keyboard (LatinImeGoogle.apk) but it kept FC'ing on me. Any insight into this would be greatly appreciated
Here's what I did:
Had trouble downloading stock bleb from Asus onto my prime for .28
Downloaded Androwook 2.6 (i think, the ics version) and extracted LatinImeGoogle.apk from the ICS version of androwook.
Backed up LatinImeGoogle.apk (jb version) in /system/app
Moved LatinImeGoogle.apk (ICS, from androwook) to /system/app, chmod to 644 (rw r r)
Reboot
Select stock google keyboard as default keyboard in settings
Open anything that requires text entry and the bottom of the screen goes white (where the keyboard should be) and I get a sometimes transiently appearing other times normal FC box.
No FC when I restored the JB keyboard.
Thanks!

I'm fond of this free ICS keyboard installable from the play store. It has the best autocorrect I have used, a microphone visible on the keyboard for voice input, and numbers and smileys available with long press of keys.

does it do fast multitouch? that's the issue i have, it just doesn't process fast enough. so far, no 3rd party keyboard has been as fast as or faster than the google stock keyboard from ics

Can't help you there. I'm a two finger hunt and peck, typer.
My favorite thing about it is if you find it auto corrected something you didn't want corrected, hitting backspace changes it back to your original word unlike the stupid stock Asus keyboard.
I've got a htc sensation which I rooted a while back, and have been using virtuous inquisition since then. Since that rom was sense based, I've been using the sense keyboard and liked how i could have it in a phone keypad layout. This one was modded too to have arrows for moving the cursor around which was great since tapping the screen in exactly the right place is a real pain in the arse.
Thing is I've now recently changed to cm10 which isn't sense based, so the sense keyboard has gone. The standard keyboard only has the full keyboard layout, so the buttons are too small for me.
Apparently you can't make the sense keyboard work with it, so I've tried go launcher's keyboard, multilang and a few other free ones, but none of them are perfect. Can anyone recommend a decent keyboard to me which will work as I want?
Perfect keyboard. First app I download when I flash a new rom, highly customizable.
SwiftKey. I believe it's still on sale, but there is a free trial.
Best keyboard ever.

+1 bought it, very nice, using it without correctionstuff, i´m an oldschoolwriter a lot of customizations as mentioned
Just tried perfect keyboard and yeah it seems nice. I've got my desired layout and cursors, and the dictionary works well enough to be used without fuss. Can I make it so that it doesn't suggest words longer than what I've typed? For example if I type aunt it suggests words more than four letters long, like cumulative. Any way of making it stick to the correct number of letters?

Try the Jellybean keyboard! Awesome predictions plus large buttons and smart typing/press (no typo)

SwiftKey. I've been using it for a while, and even when I'm not typing English -with English being the only dictionary installed) it still offers me corrections (although they're not automatically selected, which is good).
It literally learns how you type.
Right, I've tried SwiftKey, a.i.type and jellybean keyboards and none of them appear to let me choose the layout that I want.
That perfect keyboard seems alright, but how can I stop it suggesting words longer than what I typed?

Yes. I have never used predictive text/spelling as I hate it so know naff all about it.
To be honest I think its a crap suggestion because the whole idea of predictive is to help you place long words by only typing a few letters so it will never work the way you want.
For me smart-keyboard is perfect. You can use ready made skins or create your own quite easyly.

Stock JB Keyboard or Swiftkey 3. ♥
Swift key works great once it learns how u type. Really saves me time.

I know that this looks like it has been asked a dozen times, but I assure you that I have looked high and low and have installed literally 10 or so keyboards trying to compare features.
Here's what I am looking for (if it's possible):
Looking for a port of the keyboard that comes with AOKP 4.2.2 Milestone 1 or later. I know that there are tons of Jellybean keyboards out there and they even have gesture typing, but the one that comes with AOKP has the long press alternate keys exactly where I want them as well as the right selection.
I have tried the Google Keyboard from the Play Store and it doesn't have the long press alternates (aside for a select few that aren't labled).
Does anyone know how I can get this keyboard to work on my Note II? I have even gone so far as to extract it from an AOKP ROM and it loads fine, however the gesture typing does not work (just shows the gesture trail but doesn't type anything)
Is this at all possible? Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance!

If AOKP is like the other AOSP Roms then the keyboard is the Google keyboard, unless they are using the older AOSP keyboard which is the same thing with a different name. AOKP may just use a different one but I doubt that.
Have you tweaked with the settings in the keyboard once installed to make sure the gesture trail is turned on?
You might get more help in the Themes section seeing how they deal with a lot of keyboards and mods for keyboards.

I tried everything. Gesture trail is turned on. The keyboard version is 4.2.2. Not really sure what else to do. Seems like maybe a lib file is missing or something.

Hello.
I saw a video of Galaxy Alpha and its keyboard had a separate number row at the top of keyboard. I can't find any option to turn it on on my phone. I do now want to install any other keyboards (swiftkey etc.) I am looking for an option to get it work on stock Samsung keyboard. Is it possible that it is because of the customisation from Orange?
Best Regards.
If it's not in your options your keyboard doesn't support it.

It is possible and this keyboard looks like a stock keyboard.
I have installed official software without Orange brand and problem is solved.
