Hey everyone
Is there any keyboard mod for the Xperia Z2 that modifies the alternate key symbol delay? When I hold a button to insert numbers or punctuation signs it takes too long to insert it.
I really like the keyboard but hate the fact that I have to hold down the "c" button for a good second before it inserts a question mark.
Thanks!
Try out SwiftKey, great keyboard
I've tried Swiftkey and Ai.type. I prefer Ai.type but I just got my xperia and fell in love with its keyboard. It's small but very efficient and takes advantage of the alternate symbols very intelligently. The only problem is the delay. I'm looking for a mod (xposed module maybe?) like the one for galaxy's keyboard. Haven't found one, so far.
Google keyboard is very similar to Xperia and it has modifiable long press delay settings.

Alright, I HATE Swype, and basically all keyboards under WinMo except for the default full QWERTY. I hit the stupid keyboard open/close button ALL THE TIME when trying to hit the space bar, and I am tired of it. Is there any way to completely remove or otherwise disable this button? Thanks to anyone who can help.
I too am very frustrated when I just want to hide the keyboard and instead a popup appears to choose form other keyboard types :-/
Is it possible to only use the QWERTY keyboard without any other to choose from?
Or Just assign only show/hide keyboard function to that button...
I got used to touch the button on the left side, but anyway I would love to disable this feature as well.
Hi,
I have Swype keybord with only period key on my SGS3, so when i want to write comma, I must long press period key, this is very annoying (picture 1). On my old SGS2 was Swype keyboard with two separate keys, one for comma and one for period (picture 2). Is here any way to enable two separate keys for comma and period on SGS3? Swype language is CZECH (QWERTZ). Thanx and sorry for my poor english.
You don't have the swype keyboard. You have the Samsung keyboard with some swype features built in.
I too miss the extra characters and the arrow keys stuff you have in swype, so have installed the beta. But it now does have an issue with being shorter in height than the standard keyboards, by about one third.
If you install the beta, once activated it may show on screen the first time really really small; just flip to landscape then back to portrait and it will be better.
I was just wondering if it would be possible to add a smiley's button to a sense keyboard instead of having to hit menu and insert smiley every time. On all of the aosp roms the smiley button is where the enter key would be but if you add that keyboard to a sense rom it doesn't show up so if anyone knows how to modify the sense keyboard to have that button that would be awesome!
other keyboards with smiley
I have tried every keyboard looking for one that combines all the greatest features including a working smiley key. Swiftkey seems to be the over all best. But it has some serious issues with lag on ICS, so had to give it up, even though it's prediction, including adding missing space, is way above everyone else, sometimes it would not do predictions within apps though. Touchpal has nice prediction and a good enter key that brings up smiley with a long press as well as a great feature of getting the alt key meaning by swiping the key up or down. Smart keyboard has good text prediction, long press to get smiley on enter key. My favorite right now is Perfect Keyboard. Perfect keyboard lets me tailor the long press duration, it has great prediction, and like swiftkey will fill in missing space bar presses. With perfect keyboard a long press get the smileys, plus Perfect keyboard does even a better job than the others of continuing to do predictions even within apps like shopping lists, google play, etc.

Works well. I loved the HTC_Mod before as well, and somebody ported it over to XHDPI devices; he's still trying to get it working on JB, but it works fine on ICS.
Today while carrying my Prime on the dock while open, I randomly pressed or held a button. It produced a popup that allowed me to change my input method from the physical keyboard to an on screen Asus/Android keyboard.
This is a really cool feature (especially for typing other languages). Does anyone know how to reproduce this popup?
Did you press the "keyboard" icon that is displayed in the system tray when docked?
hi, can someone recommend me a keyboard similar to the google keyboard but that when you hold the m button it changes to the ?
i really like how simple and big the letters are. i found smart keyboard but when you hold the n it dont change it to the ñ like the google keyboard. you have to choose between 3 letter so thats an extra step.
