Hey guys I found a new thread of a new keyboard to our wildfire! ;D It's from Gingerbread(android 2.3), it is really nice and i decided to share to all that dont know it.
Tutorial:
Requirements
-Device must have root priveleges with Superuser
-Android 2.2 Froyo operating system
-The latest “Voice Search” application from the Android Market
-Make a backup of LatinIME.apk in system/app folder just in case!
Clock work mod and rom manager is needed but we are using wildfire and all of us use it so i wont put in requirements.
Bugs:
Vibrate on keypress doesn’t work(nice, don't eat my battery )
How to install:
Download the keyboard from here:
http://briefmobile.com/Fabolous_GBKB_Fix.zip (do not extract the files just copy the zip file how you download it)
Now connect your cellphone to computer and send the .zip file to your sdcard
Disconnect from computer, turn off phone or reboot into recovery(clock work mod) then install zip from sd card>choose zip and fla****/installIt!
Reboot phone and done! Go to messages and create a new message and you will see a new keyboard from Gingerbread(android 2.3)!

I beg to differ, Vibrate on Keypress works 100% fine. I'm using OpenFire 2.3 ROM.
Anyways, this keyboard has some nice new settings. Me likey. Thanks a lot.
PS: Why is ROM Manager needed? I don't have it and it works fine.

I could choose ginger keyboard by holding text field as you said but when I try to write, it got closed by force and doesn't let me to write. I have wildpuzzle rom with froyo and I installed it steps by steps.
Don't worry, I will try it with the final ginger rom. Thank you all

[APP][LG stock Keyboard][CM7 & cutom ROMs][Gingerbread based ONLY][UPDATED 26.03.12]
Hello guys,
I have made a flashable zip for those who want the LG Gingerbread stock Keyboard. I know that in CM7 is not supported and probably neither in other custom Gingerbread ROMs(only Android Keyboard is supported) .
Pay attention! This is only for GINGERBREAD [2.3.x] CUSTOM ROMS (DEODEXED ROMS)
So for those who love LG Gingerbread stock Keyboard here it is:
1. Download the desired ZIP (see below zips) to root of SDCARD (no folders!)
2. Reboot to Recovery (i use CWM 5.0.2.7)
3. Wipe cache and dalvik cache
4. Choose "install zip from SD CARD"
5. Flash zip
6. Reboot.
LG_IME_2.3.zip - without T9 user dictionary (for those that don't need user dictionary)
LG_IME+DIC_2.3.zip - with T9 user dictionary working (for those who want to add words on the dictionary)
Phone models reported to working:
LG Optimus One (LGP500) - GB
LG Optimus 2X (LGP990) - GB
Huawei X6 - GB
Samsung Galaxy S (GT-I9000) - INFINITUM ROM - ICS (working but not properly on ICS because is GB based)
Regards.
If i helped you please press THANKS button.
I'm not responsible if you brick your phone, you flash this at your own risk.

Great. I have also tested on a ICS rom for LGP500 (hephappy ICS CM9 port), it works, but i cannot switch between Android keyboard and LG Keyboard after that only if i remove the keyboard...
User dictionary NOT working..
Hi!
Fresh installed CM7 Alien today (Optimus 2x) and flashed this keyboard from you...
It adds words to the user dictionary BUT, it seems that the keyboard has it's own list?
It doesn't predict my words from the UD unless I open settings for keyboard, selects dictionary and inputs a word. Then it works forever for that single word..
If I type a word and long-press it for adding to dictionary, it adds it to the built-in(?) dictionary and it does NOT show up in prediction..
Any ideas of whats wrong? Have two versions of the stock LG keyboards and none of their UD's works.. Really don't have the time or patience for adding every single word the long way..
Kind regards, Victor
OMG. ..I really need this for my cm7.2!
Sorry for my bad English: (
One more thing... would you please help me to add a Chinese input language in it?
Sorry for my bad English: (
To have a working user dictionary you have to add every word you need in future, sorry about that, you also can search on the internet for some dictionaries, probably there are users that share dictionaries for LG keyboard.

Well to have chinese input on your smartphone, i think that your ROM has to support it, but in any case if you are not able to use the chinese input with LG stock Keyboard then install from Google Play/Market the one of the following applications:
- Google Pinyin IME
- Sogou

No problem mate, i'm glad i can help. From what i know the ROM has to support first the language that you want to use with a keyboard, if the desired language is not present also in the ROM then you are not able to use it also with the keyboard.

Hi!
Someone experienced problems with the android keyboard (not swipe) in RR 2.0 and 2.1??
When i'm writing, at times it won´t detect anything, and i need to close the app (whatsapp, sms, gmail, etc...) and reopen it.
ps: full wipe
thanks in advance!
I have seen no one reporting the same problem in the ROM thread. Can you try another Keyboard (i.e. GO Keyboard) and see if you face the same issue

You might want to reflash again the ROM. if it will be the same thing, try flashing the Android keyboard alone then select it in keyboard settings.
HIT THANKS IF IT HELPS YOU IN ANYWAY!!!

This needs a post of its own.
Requirements:
Make a backup!
Method:
1 - Install google keyboard from Play market
2 - Download, and install 4.4 keyboard (select update if necessary)
3 - Enjyoy!
So here is the link to the keyboard
LINK
Sideload (install), if that doesnt work then push to: /system/app/
If you want native Emoji support download and install this
LINK
Report and issues so I can write them up:
Issues: Gesture typing works if you follow the method.

I'll have a play with this when I have more time, I'm stocktaking today
Off topic for SMS I use Chomp SMS which has an emoji plugin and that seems two work very well. It just puts an extra emoji button in so you don't have to keep switching keyboards to enter an emoji :good:
Tried this yesterday aaand i'm back to stock. Gesture typing doesn't work (as mentioned), and i guess i'm just used to Sony's keyboard now
Everything is working perfect.
You need to install google keyboard from Play market. After install kitkat keyboard on top. And everything will be perfect.

It's not any error but I'm getting this while installing prebuiltgmscore file. It says like, "This is a system app, are you sure to install and replace it with previous one." and so on. So, I aborted. I was not sure to proceed. It says it will replace all the data, etc. What actually will it do if I press ok and continue with it? My phone is not rooted yet, and not planning for few months. I'm already using the Kitkat Launcher Theme which give the kitkat Icons and I'm using it with Nova Prime.
I also installed Kitkat Launcher from Nick app from playstore but the App Drawer was very clumsy and did not feel clean, so uninstalled it.
Back to the point, what happens if I install prebuiltgmscore replacing previous and will it require Root?
Thanks XDA Brothers.:good:
It is the .apk file for the updated playstore...since you already have playstore installed, it asks if you want to replace it...there is no prob if you click ok...you just have an updated playstore on your device...
Installed Googlehome apk directly ! ! !

It works. I skipped both PrebuiltGmsCore.apk and Velvet.apk and installed google home directly. Everything seems to work good except the widgets and the voice command is not working from the homescreen. I have to tap the top right search button. Any idea about it?
Check the attachment for widget error.
The Voice Command 'Ok Google' is supposed to work only on the Nexus 5...and the widgets caused problems initially, but now they work properly...once you drag a widget to the home screen, and click on it they show some msg...ht ok..and it will work...

prebuiltgmscore.apk is actually the new google play service app. If you had updated to the newest version of google play, you can try and error to NOT install the prebuiltgmscore.apk. Report back here if you successful install. If not sucess, just install the new version of google play(prebuiltgmscore.apk).
and Nope, doesn't require ROOT access.

You can skip both the apk because of google just rolled up their new update for those app, Google Now n Google Play Service for everyone.
To have the voice command works, just change the languages to English (US), head to MENU >Settings > Voice > Language > English (US).
Try to say, "OK google". If doesn't work, head to MENU >Settings > Voice > Language > Offline speech recognition > and choose English (US) update.
As simple as that Sorry for the late reply though.
