I just got my galaxy s 2 today n beim using it fr a few hours. Came from the nexus one n im missing pure android feel to apps.
I also cant seem to figure out how to get the dictionary working on the samsung keyboard or swype n i seem to miss the old keyboard layout too.
Is it just a simple case of finding the apk n installing it?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Gingerbread keyboard:
Search for "Keyboard from Android 2.3" in the Market.
is it reliable though? do you know from where i can get the actual one?the official one?
Sorry can't test it, my S2 is still on its way :-(
But I read about it and afaik it's ok.
I don't know if there is an "official" gingerbread keyboard for the S2, I think the one in the market is the best you can get.
Don't sue me if it's not true - This is just based on my little research
I have the CM7 keyboard as I much prefer it thanks to the long press delay option that the normal 2.3 KB does not have.
Just pull the apk from the CM7 ROM zip and install using the SGS file manager, simples

even i was thinking of doing that...where do you find the keyboard apk?or is named just that? and is it ok if i just take it from my nexus one ROM?
i cant wait for CM to come up with a SGS2 ROM if they can..i miss the pure google interface..
It's in system/app/LatinIME.apk

found it..but ended up using the Keyboard for Android 2.3 from the market because the keys in that are bigger!
Do you find that you don't get the dictionary come up in the email program though? It works in Handcent SMS, but not in email for me... (when using the market GB Keyboard I mean)

Hi
I don't think it is an official version rather it should be a mod version. I am using it for the last one week from the time i had S II and it works fine for me.

I installed the CM7 KB but I can't get the haptic feedback to work.
How did you manage this?
when i installed the CM7 keyboard, when i switch to landscape it cuts off the area where you would normally see the typed words, this is not good.
any way to shrink down the size, or get rid of the line with the extra characters?
Hi Everybody,
I would like to install the standard samsung keyboard on my CM7.
I see that this is possible in other similiar models like the galaxy mini but I dont know if thats compatible with my Ace and cant find a specific one.
Would anyone help me with this?
Many thanks!
I simply flashed the mini one a few days ago, it works but it has annoying bugs (e.g. gray letter colors instead of black on white keys)

The ICS keyboard is pretty good. Look up the theme in the forums and install it. It's great

Hi,
Does anyone know if i can get the stock keypad from the i9000 or i9100 on to the S3?
I use the stock Samsung Keypad 3X4, but the one on the S3 is nasty, really miss the T9 button. hate having to keep going into the setting to turn it on and off.
I've used a few alternatives like perfect keyboard pro etc.. they were close, but just not the same.
I've tried porting the stock samsung keyboard (AxT9IME) but it wont open, someone on XDA posted a so called fixed version for the Galaxy Y, porting it using root explorer and changing permitions etc... I tried this but it would open for a second before crashing.
please could someone help
:laugh:
Essentially all phones I've used I've been using the 3 by 3 keypad, I know exactly where all the keys are and I can type much faster with it. I have found that since I've updated my phone from foxhound build, there seem to be no new builds that have the old fashion keypad. I don't know if it's just called the samsung keypad or what but I really prefer the old style I can actually type properly without having to focus too intently. That and my thumbs are wide and usually hit the wrong keys. Could someone point me to the right ROM or addition to be able to add to my phone. Currently using SuperNexus

You need the S5 Settings and S5 Keyguard. My rom has it, so you can just take download v1.0 of my rom and take it from there.
