Did anyone testing THIS Keyboard and get it running?
It is the XT9-one taken from the leaked upcoming FW. Works, but I don't like it. Take FingerKeyboard
Is there a One Finger Keyboard like the 1 -9 keyboard on a phone in fingerkeyboard 2.1?
Does anyone know an one finger keyboard for Xperia with a little bit bigger keys like htc keyboard?
I like this keyboard. It works very well for one handed texting. It helps to have screen taps on to be sure your finger press registers.

Saw that there is now a cab file for the HTC Diamond keyboard. [link]. Anyone know if this will work on the Touch?
Yes it does
I put it on my xv6900 & my xv6800- works fine.
any feelings on this keyboard? I started with the older HTC keyboard, then moved to TouchPal. I'm curious to try it out, but it looks like its just a skinned and mildly updated version of HTC keyboard.
Using the diamond keyboard on the VZW Touch right now. Works well, no real issues found as of yet. Like it for the fact that it has more buttons and I love the "Switch" for the ABC and xT9.

It works well but in QWERTY mode, the letter Z is missing
Mine has the Z on both phones.
I like that I'm not stuck with the qwerty keyboard in opera now on my touch
wonder if the diamond keyboard originally has the sound when you select the keys like the htc phonepad had?

I don't know, i really like the PCM Keyboard. I can't find one that's as simple to use and functions well.

I'm going to try out the Diamond kb, currently using PCM also. I also really appreciate the simplicity of the PCM and how it takes up very little screen space (compared to others), but I really hate that I have to change layouts to get to the period (.) key. IMO, this should be on the main layout, being a such often used key.
wow....has anyone failed to mention that the "qwerty" mode doesnt work in landscape?????? that is a huge drawback for such a nicely skinned keyboard....hope this gets fixed soon
I mainly use the keyboard layout. When I hit the shift key the characters show as caps and types a cap, but then stay displayed that way even though they are no longer typing caps (at least until I enter a space, then the displayed letters return to normal). Makes it hard to tell when I have caps turned on/off. If I tap the shift key a couple more times then the display will change back, but it's annoying. The landscape qwerty seems to be working fine for me, unlike what another user said (and it's not showing the shift display problem I mentioned).
It would be nice if when a key is pressed the enlarged view of the key displayed above the key, so that my finger is not covering it up. What I mean is like the way the PCM keyboard works, or like the iPhone.
Hey all,
I was wondering, does anyone know of a soft keyboard for the touch pro 2 / tilt2 that has larger keys then the current on. I don't have large fingers, but i might as well have, I've been dealing with typing and messing us every 5 letter and input wrong letter, but there has to be a nicer keyboard. I've tried a few, the custom keyboard or something like that, i forget the name, but still the buttons are to small.
Any one know of anything?
Thanks,
I'm coming from a phone with a trackball... a MyTouch 3G that I had kept current thanks to CyanogenMod. This is much better lol.
I used that trackball though, all the time, mostly for selecting text that I'd screwed up... or to move the cursor between words where I wanted to add a sentence. But sometimes was nice too, for moving to the next form field, or scrolling focus to the "submit" button, etc.
I'm pretty happy with my Swiftkey X keyboard - it's got an option to enable arrow keys. I'm surprised Swype doesn't? I'm used to Swype and really would like to use that.
So my question is twofold:
Any other good keyboards with either a simulated trackpad or arrow keys?
and/or...
How do you live without it? I can adapt if I know the tricks.

Hackers keyboard is nice. Has the four arrows and a number row. Plus you can enlarge or reduce the keys.
The best solution I have found so far is an app called GameKeyboard. The dpad simulates the repeated keypress of a held down arrow key, or joystick (which is essential for many games).
However, it has bugs, and the qwerty mode is slow (you swipe horizontally across the keyboard to switch between gamepad mode and keyboard mode). I enable it specifically for games, and then switch back to my main keyboard (i.e. swype) for everything else.
Here's a link:

in swype there is an arrow option. swype from the swype/option button to the sym/123 button and a arrow keypad comes up. also from sym/123 button to "f" brings up a number pad.
thumb keyboard has arrows
Hey guys... I'm using the version of the HTC IME keyboard that is included in Calkulin's rom (which is great), but it has a divided spacebar with a ".com" on half of it.
I used to use an HTC IME keyboard on another device that had a wide spacebar, with no ".com" on it, and I am wondering if anyone could kindly point me in the right direction for that keyboard that would be compatible with the E4GT. I keep hitting the ".com" when I'm trying to space.
Thanks for the help!
Smart keyboard, better keyboard or ai keyboard (to my knowkedge). You can adjust the size and length and the keyboard
Thanks guys. I actually started using the ICS keyboard and I'm really liking it.
I recently started using swiftkey after being a swype diehard for almost three years now. It looks great and swiftkey flow is way better than i'd anticipated.
The Problem: on the hard kb, it seems like the shift and caps lock (as well as the alt button) is reversed. I.e. One press for lock, two presses for one character.
Has anyone figured out a workaround? This is super aggravating.
Also, if there's a way to disable the suggestions when the kb is out, or even in landscape altogether, that would be super....
Dman's CM10 with litekernel, hard keyboard works fine with the aosp keyboard set as the default
