There are none. You just use the optical trackpad instead.

Thanks for the prompt reply, but I am very clumsy and wonder if there is a keyboard out there I could load to get cursor keys back?
All the best,
Sam.

You can map the volume button to move cursor

smarter keyboard pro allows you to have the keyboard arrows
in fact it's so good that when using the normal keyboard, you can just swipe in an direction to have the arrow keys displayed
also provides you with the stock android keyboard
would recommend

[Q]Removing the arrow keys?

Is it possible to remove the arrow keys from the onscreen keyboard?
I usually click on the text itself if I want to move around the stuff so The keys are just in the way for me.
Thanks in advance

Install the htc ime mod. Can't paste you the bookmark right now but google should found it easy enough.

Stock HTC Keyboard For CM7 With Arrows

I am using CM7 but want the stock keyboard... I can't function without the arrows and a trackball....
anyone help?

On the text fields there is now a slider to slide the cursor around. Have you tried using this? I, personally, find this more intuitive and useful than the arrow keys.

the stock keyboard I can help you get on CM7, but no arrows.

You should check out swift key beta x and after you install u can go into the settings under theme and layout section enable arrow keys its free for now and its a really good keyboard I think better then stock. I use the fast prediction of settings.

On the gingerbread keyboard you can press the spacebar and drag up to get arrow keys.

Arrow Keys on gingerbread keyboard

I've been reading a lot of posts about people having issues with not having arrow keys on the new Gingerbread keyboard. To access the arrow keys all you have to do is press and hold the Space bar and flick your finger up. and the arrow keys will appear on there own row at the bottom of the keyboard. Hope this helps!!

Keyboard cursor buttons in toolbar (lineageos 18.1)

I remember finding an option in settings that created a pair of buttons in the bottom toolbar (the toolbar that show home and back buttons), for moving the keyboard cursor forward and back. These buttons would only be shown when the soft keyboard was shown. I cannot find this option anymore, anyone know what option I'm talking about and where it is?
I'm running lineageos 18.1 on a poco x3 pro. I have only upgraded to a newer version of 18.1 since using said option.

Nevermind, I found it under: Settings -> System -> Buttons -> Show arrow keys while typing.
