You can find sense 4 type keyboards on the market.
Also, the keyboard that comes with many Roms have a trace function you can turn on. Settings, language & keyboard, sliders next to Touch Input, Trace Keyboard, Turn on trace.

THanks!

Try thumb keyboard. Its fantastic for spacing out the keys for thumb typing in landscape and portrait.
I switched to a dvorak keyboard, since you can't touch-type on a on-screen keyboard, why do people still need to use qwerty? Using Dvorak gives each hand a more balanced use to type
Thanks, I will give it a shot
how did you manage to switch the keyboard, I cannot find the option to to change Input Method in keyboards settings menu?
Thanks for any tips how to change the keyboard....

nevermind - I already found it by longpressing and input field.... I wonder why they removed it from the settings menu....
thumb keyboard is awesome. a little pricey for most apps but i thought the flyer standard keyboard was impossible to type on in landscape mode.
so +1 to thumb keyboard its 2.49 in the market.
I love it in landscape but in portrait the standard android keyboard is easier to use for me.

Or use thumb keyboard which can have different layouts in different orientations.
has anyone with a WiFi only Flyer gotten Swype to work (i.e., license properly)? Swype is the keyboard I'd like to use.
BTW, can anyone recommend a physical bluetooth keyboard?
I am a registered Swype beta user. Swype installer installed ok (had to turn of Mobile View in browser to get it) and so far it is running ok. Unfortunately the current beta version lacks a lot of languages that are available for the preinstalled devices....

The new Swype 3.0 beta will now work with WiFi-only devices. I got it working on my Flyer. But it has some serious bugs. It is not really useable in the Notes application.
On Honeycomb, the 3.0 Swype has a resizable keyboard which is absolutely great in landscape mode. But I won't be fully satisfied until we have one keyboard with the features of Swype + Thumb Keyboard + Slide-IT + Hacker's Keyboard. Each of those keyboards has some unique features that I like.
I have the Sprint View and it came with swype installed. Of course it is an older version. Not usable in my opinion..have to swipe too far on the View/Flyer. I tried Swiftkey tablet and it installs....but isn't great for the screen size. It's too small. Plus it does not work in the notes app.

I really suck with the HTC keyboard. Swype doesnt do much for me either...
To the point, Im looking for keyboard recommendations. Ive tried almost all and own them too. My ONLY requirement is that the keyboard does NOT require access to the internet. I would also prefer it be a premium item if it needs to be purchased via the market.
Just looking for suggestions, if something like this even exists. There is a chance I could have overlooked a gem. Thank you!

Agreed. SwiftKey X is amazing. After a week or so of using it, it pretty much knows what I want to type before I do.

For some reason I typed so much worse with swiftkey. On my OG Evo, the stock gingerbread keyboard (available as a free download in the market called just search gingerbread keyboard) was the best for me. Was able to type extremely fast and accurate. On my 3D though, I don't know if it's the case I have the wraps around the bezel a bit but I can't type for **** with the GB keyboard. I can't hit the space bar, always end up hitting b or a period. The HTC IME without arrows is best for me on the 3D.

But then are you typing without mistake or selecting the predictions?
Edit: what are your settings like? I know it works best with certain settings.
I've got a trio of keyboards installed, stock, swype and smart keyboard pro. I like the old swiftkey, I'll download it one more time. Wish it defaulted with an enter key. Hate a smiley key.

agreed here as well. I really like the ICS keyboard. I have been using it recently on steel ROM.
swift x is ok, but kind of annoying sometimes and lacks the functionality of smart keyboard pro in my opinion.

I set Swiftkey X to learn from Facebook and my text messages. I chose the fast typer option in settings and at this point I probably type about a third of a word before it knows what I want and I can just hit space to complete it. Though when I do have to type a whole word I personally find the keyboard easier to type on than the stock one.
thought i'd post this in case any of my fellow unrooted inc4g people hate the default keyboard as much as I do

Thanks a lot I've been waiting for this
I installed the APK but I cannot find a way to switch keyboards. Any advice?
EDIT: Found it! When the additional keyboard is enabled (Settings->Languages & Keyboard->Android Keyboard ON), a keyboard icon appears in the notification bar. Dragging down the notification bar shows "Select input method" which then allows for a kb switch.

After you install go into settings, then language settings and enable it, then find an input field, like in messages, then in the status bar you will see the select input, click that and select the android keyboard and you'll be good

Hey, i have been looking around at keyboard emulators and I found a few I like.
I was wondering if there is anyway to disable the stupid directional arrows when typing in landscape mode. I always end up hitting a direction when i mean to delete something. Anyone know of a fix for this? I am currently using an Iphone keyboard emulator
Edit: this looks like what i want, but i am not sure it will work on my device any one know?

The design of Swiftkey keyboard is very suitable with sense. I like it. The functionality of the keyboard is good too.
This is the first time I use a keyboard with full internet access, i. e., swiftkey. I hope I'm not mistaken

Does it do all that in landscape as well? I hate typing in portrait mode
i figured out what is adding in the arrow keys, its HTC sense but i also like the sense camera. Does anyone know a way just to disable the arrow keys again on landscape, because it allows you to disable them on portrait mode

Hey,
I've tried the jelly bean keyboard in the market. It's ok.but it's no where as accurate or gives as many options as Swype beta .

I like Kii Keyboard. It's fairly new but works great, it supports swype and it's free.
+1 Swiftkey
You can disable directional arrows in Swiftkey.
I'm constantly being 'auto corrected' by this damned keyboard. Many of my texts invlove abbreviations and acronyms and they always get guessed to the nearest real word. I have to go back and re-type them back in. I don't want to have to add 60 words to my dictionary. Is there a way I can turn off auto-correct, or a different keyboard app you recommend?
Cool story bro
Download another keyboard like SwiftKey or Swype.

Man i feel your pain , couldn't believe the trouble i was having with the HTC ONES Keyboard also , i really wanted to kee a complete stock look , but i just couldn't take it anymore , so i just downloaded swype from the playstore i've acyually been using it for quite awhile now , on my s3 , and man what a difference , i would highly reccomend it SWYPE , it used to be free now its 1 dollar .................
I have always liked SwiftKey keyboard. Now it has flow built in so you can swype or text. This keyboard allows you to type with a lot of mistakes and it does a really good job fixing it. The swype keyboard in the play store works really well for swyping but typing normal on it doesn't work near as good. Depends on how you like to text more. I switch between both of them all the time.

I can't understand complaining about the keyboard on an Android phone when there are tons out there to change to.
The stock keyboard had Swype too....
I actually really liked this keyboard compared to my stock s3's.
I love this keyboard.. I have used all the other major ones and always come back to AOSP. But then I got the One and I love it. No issues and it's integrated with Google's voice keypad and is slick. No complaints here at all
