It's still there under settings / language and keyboard on my stock phone.
Just remember, there are two steps to activate the keyboard. First make it available in settings. Then choose to use it by staying to type (in any app), pull down the notifications bar, and select the input method. I always forget the second step, if it makes you feel better.

Hello, I know that there is an app which allows assigning keyboard to screen mode (potrait or landscape), but is there any app which can do the same witch application? Any help would be nice, regards.

I assume that there is no app like this? ;P
tasker can prompt on app load
would be a good idea this would. there is a keyboard switcher that works on rotation but to have one for specific apps could prove useful
Is not it very stressful having to use different keyboards for different apps?I can not see the benefits.
Me too
I also want this feature on my note 8. The reason is, I want Samsung keybord in Lecture notes, to have the awsome text recognition feature. And SwiftKey keyboard for everything else!
What app switches depending on orientation, as said in op?

I thought about writing one a while back but got pushed into other projects I feel it should be fairly simple what you would want to do is set the app as default keyboard then inside the app you would choose which keyboard you want and then the app itself would just call the input from that keyboard

Tasker + SecureSettings can do on app and on orientation.
Instructions for Tasker + Secure Settings
Here's how to do it using Tasker & Secure Settings: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45570023&postcount=4
How about this? Not free though.

How do you manually enable 10key on htc trace? I know how to do it on swype but I can not figure it out on trace. Please help.
Thanks,
Go to settings, language & keyboard, click on the settings button and then under keyboard types choose phone. I think that's what you're talking about.

STOCK HTC EVO 3D, Running ICS newest update, Using stock Message app
When I goto respond to a text and press the message area for the keyboard to pop up the text message window increases to a full screen window instead of the smaller window it used to.
Looks like this below, Anyone know how to change it back to the smaller window
Go into keyboard settings. I believe its under landscape settings which is weird why its affecting the portrait mode.

*Also this only started after I did the ICS update.

Hmm.. I though I remembered a setting for that. Maybe try a factory reset if you are willing too.

Hello,
How can one make a custom keyboard that could be choosen as input method (aka Samsung Keyboard, Swype, Sixaxis)?
Is there any way to just load up a custom image, and then inside the app just configure that this area of the screen is for example A button, Space button etc?

i do not really have a particular needs, was just wondering if i could design a keyboard in photoshop, import it on the phone and just translate where are the buttons located. just for the sake of possibilities - i love android
I for my Part would take another keyboard app, turn inside out and look what happens if i edit this and that
Or try go keyboard, its themable

It only appears when typing. Using d3rp rom, everyone seems to hate this notification, but I find it very useful. I doubt it, but is there any way to get it back without flashing different rom? Is there a system apk that handles this that could be replaced without breaking the rom.

I think that happens when you have more than 1 keyboard installed and no default set

I do have more than one keyboard and on the stock rom the notification (which is a keyboard icon in the status bar) would be there regardless of default whenever a keyboard was in use. This was a highly useful feature allowing me to switch keyboards on the fly depending on input requirements. There are some really efficient keyboards that lack certain useful features like arrow keys and numberpads, being able to quickly switch keyboards is an effective way to get the best of all worlds. Why people found this so annoying is beyond me. The best I can do right now is use Tasker to replace it, but this notification will be there ALL THE TIME, not just when typing, now THAT is annoying.
