Compact Keyboard?!? Where do I find? - Touch HD Themes and Apps

Hey guys,
Looking for some help guys. I love my Touch HD. I just recently flashed onkolog's ROM (superlite), and I love it. Problem: The keyboard he has in his ROM has the full keyboard and a phone keyboard. The ROM that I had before which I dont remember the name, had two letters on each key (and i think was called the compact keyboard), any idea, where I can obtain this keyboard?

I have the same problem.

Not sure which keyboard he used but I assume by your description it's the EZInput one that everyone else is using and this is the info from that projects page...:
"These are the new layouts - only Phone Keypad and Full Qwerty, this time."
This might be something worth trying though: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=393722

Alternative keyboard - ROM incoporated only?

I'm no pro when it comes to these things but I have read a fair amount on here when it comes to these things, but I'm confused so hopefully someone can clarify..
I've got my new Compact 3 from T-mobile and I really can't stand the qwerty keyboard. It works fine with the stylus but it's just not any good for finger typing. I quite like the Touch version where the keys are quite a bit larger, so here's the question..
is it possible to get another input keyboard working on this device without the need for a replacement rom? I'm happy with the officla T-mobile WM6 version I upgraded to at the weekend.

This one is good and free at the moment.
what will happen with the standard keyboard? will I still have choice to use the small keys one?
is there a way to add the touch keyboard but with Russian layout/letters without changing the rom?
I use resco keyboard, it's commercial but I haven't found any other keyboard for that price/features. It supports Russian and about 20 other languages. It seems to be working a little slower than other keyboards but not that much.
Try this one:

It's a very good keyboard, with tons of features, for me the big keys are a must-have.

I second this one, once you practice and get used to it, works very well.

On Screen Keyboards

Hi there,
I'm usually in the Blackstone or Rhodium forums and have a mate who has the Xperia X1 and asked me about the on screen keyboards.
Looking at this phone, he only has the normal on screen keyboard which needs the stylus to be used, is there anyone out there that has the "Full QWERTY" and "Phone Keypad" Keyboards as a cab to install?
Thanks
search for FINGER KEYBOARD 2.1 or something like that. it's much better than the se kb.

Are u serious?
what's the point of a software keyboard when u have a hardware one?
imho, the best solution even is to install nullkeyboard to stop the annoying software keyboard from popping up.
Try SPB Keyboard. Its great
Hi, Although u have the slider keyboard already, but for obvious reasons one may need a software keyboard too. Try SPB Keyboard (just google it and u get the links). It also gives u lot many plugins to shoose from various layouts/options of keyboard.
I have been using it for long and its works great on X1.
fingerkeyboard is by far the best!
hm.. this might help u

hope this will help you.

Although hardware keyboards are great, you need two hands to use them. When you want to send a quick message or send something quick on Twitter etc, one hand is prefered, hence the Software Keyboard is needed.

Cheers for the link
I used the Touch IT Blackstone keyboard set which includes a handy keypad, simulating a normal phone pad. I mostly use it for one-handed sms.
The filename is Touch-IT Blackstone Keyboard.cab or something, so a search would probably yield results.

Tried fingerkeyboard, Blackstone and SPB one. Actually I'm with the xT9 keyboard, that id the official finger-friendly keyboard that SE ships with the R3A ROM release. It is by far the best one I've ever tried.
Try it, it's here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=494026
The xT9 is the best keyboard. The only one you can use with one hand!

that was my issue... there's other ezinput 2.0 that i've got/tried...
and the fn keys are outputting different things...
ezinput 1.5 works BUT has smaller keys and the font is messed up (courier?)
oh well
still eager for someone to fix this issue...
what about the issue that older EzInput keyboards had with the predictive text on the X1i?
I remember when i installed 1.5 it would no longer pre-populate names as i was typing in the To: section for a text message
dont really care about t9 or predictive text...
i just want to type and use the fn key to properly output numbers rather than using sym all the time >.<

Leaked X1 R3 keyboard vs X2 keyboard

Just got a PM about the leaked R3 virtual keyboard from an XDA member, and I realized that many might not even know about its existance. So what virtual keyboard to you guys use? X2, "leaked R3", HTC, Fingerboard, or a third party keyboard?
In case you didn't know about the official Xperia offerings here are pics and links.
X1's leaked R3 keyboard... which has a T9 option unlike the X2 version I believe.
Download link from itje's original thread
X2's keyboard
Dowload link from Ethermind's original thread
X2's keyboard also has other keyboard layouts. Hold "123" button (if i remember correctly) and you'll get their list.
But anyway I prefer using HTC's EzInput

Really? I'm surprised you prefer the HTC keyboard. My turn off to the HTC keyboard has been the inclusion of arrow buttons, that take up precious space on our X1s that already have both a hardware DPAD and an optical pad. the size issue made it difficult to use on my old HTC Pure/Diamond 2 with its 3.2" screen and its even more difficult for me to use on the X1's smaller 3.0" screen. I had to use a software keyboard as primary input for a brief period when my HW keyboard was acting up, and HTC's was a huuuuuge pain due to buttons being tiny due to the inclusion of an onscreen DPAD. I have Resco keyboard, but I may just experiment with the R3 and X2 keyboards.
I'm using HTC keyboard, probably because it's already included in my ROM and i'm too lazy to install another one.
If keyboard would not be installed, i would use default WM keyboard and use hardware kb for every small thing. And if i would have to install one, i would install X2 keyboard.
Sir how can I install that R3 Keyboard? Does it have Alpha numeric keys like on nokia? Iam having difficulties in typing in HTC form. I am using WM6.5xx...Please need help. thanks

Yes, it does have T9 input (alphanumeric keys). Just install this cab http://rapidshare.com/files/210068347/OEM_SE_XPeria_Keyboard.CAB on your phone, and that should be all.
can somebody please reupload this file? the files seems to be deleted by rapidshare
The keyboard of my choice is the Resco Keyboard. I consider it almost perfect. I hardly ever have to flip out the hardware keyboard.

Custom Keyboard Layout

Hello everyone, Can somebody help me with a custom keyboard layout, or build my own keyboard for HTC Tilt2, I need to have a Russian cyrillic keyboard. i downloaded one but it messed everything up, it got rid of my English version keyboard.... i need both enlgish and russian. i know its easy to do on iphone but imma iphone hater and dont want it. so if somebody can help me get an app for my tilt2 that would be great

keyboard layout after ROM flash

Yesterday I flashed a different ROM to my phone and today as I was sending a text message, I realized the keyboard layout is messed up, the top row of the keyboard now comes up as digits. And my Shift key doesn't work, my FN key is shift, so my FN key does not bring up the special characters. I thought it might of just been the ROM but I just flashed my 3rd ROM for the night and ALL of them did it.
How do I fix this?
Here is a keyboard fix for the Tilt 2
Just install it like any other cab. It will have you reset your device, then the keyboard layout should be correct.
It would help if you tell us which ROM you are using.
The different carrier versions of the TP2 have different keyboard layouts, and it sounds like you have the ATT Tilt2 version. Different cooks approach the keyboard customization differently, and its usually listed in the FAQs for that ROM. For instance, for Energy, you just go to Start>Tools>Carrier Provisioning and select ATT.
Or just use the CAB in the reply above.
hi there, i cooked my own rom from an att rom to my tp2 do any of you guys have the fix for the touch pro 2 from t-mobile.
thanks in advance.
