I used that version and it's quite fugly. There a way to skin it?
Is this the version of Swype from the original 2.1 slide rom or is it some dodgy low-res knockoff?

Its the same res, but blue instead of black. Also, the swype that comes with the slide is 1.29.x and the one I downloaded and am running is 1.60.x, and it runs much better.

weird. Is there a special way to install swype or something? I tried installing swype with astro, but swype is not showing up as an input method...
when I pressed launch (via app manager) it says activity not found: com.swype.android.inputmethod
Lol, I was just asking about this in my question thread. It might not be installing because it needs to changed from a .zip to .apk. that's just what was suggested to me. Haven't tried yet

lol nvm I just found out >_>
go setting->language & keyboard settings-> enable swype and you're good to go
speaking of which, is there a swype keyboard of similar version yet with a different skin? or does the later versions make a significant improvement? The blue one looks kinda eh on the screen =\
The keyboard in 1.60 is bigger more like the size htc_ime

I tried upgrading to Fresh Rom 3.1.0.1 but I'm took hooked on the Droid-X keyboard, I had to go back to Eclair Fresh Rom.
I tried CM6 out, bad ass rom btw but I'm so used to Sense, I wanted to stay on Fresh.
Now the Droid-X keyboard will not work on ForYo I heard but what does CM6 have? Sure looks like the Droid-X to me, re-skinned black. Matter of fact I've seen the Droid-X keyboard re-skinned black so I know it was done.
I snagged CM6, ripped it's keyboard apk and tried to install it on Fresh, which Fresh FroYo, which is told me I would be replacing my existing keyboard, then it told me it couldn't install.
Is there a way to remove the factory keyboard with 2.2 and push that one in and have it work or could you devs make it work?
If I'm on the wrong track here, let me know but the one IN CM6 sure looks like the Droid-X running on 2.2 to me.
Is the CM6 keyboard the native 2.2 keyboard?
On a related note, can someone post the .apk for the native 2.2 keyboard?
CM6 is using the stock froyo keyboard with the hidden number panel that you slide up to open. At least RC1 was, and I doubt the nightly would be any different. Correct me if I'm wrong please.
I believe the keyboard in CM6 is the stock Froyo 2.2 keyboard. I'm not sure if you removed the HTC one if it would default to that one since it's not already available when you try to chose a different input method.

I could be totally wrong, but doesnt RM ReMove stuff? Delete it? Anyway, I took the keyboard from CM6, pushed it to system/app, reset, and it now shows up in input method, but force closes when selected. Must be relying on a lib file or something.
I have Netarchy's ROM installed, and i too fell in love with the CM6 keyboard. So i found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=744373 and now i have the CM6 Keyboard on my ROM. Works Flawless. No FC r anything.

You are AWESOME. Worked like a charm. Thanks a lot!
So then the CM6 keyboard, which is stock ForYo 2.2 keyboard, is the same keyboard the Droid-X was using on 2.1 Eclair?
I'm looking at both the one released as the Droid-X keyboard (Eclair), the white one and the one from CM6 which is black, they look the SAME to me other then color. Both are multi-touch etc too.
I'll have to check out that thread. Just leaving work so I'll check when I get home.
No Problem. Just trynna Help

The Droid X keyboard is a customized version of the stock Android 2.1 keyboard.
The CM6 keyboard IS the stock Android 2.2 keyboard.
The 2.2 keyboard has the feature that lets you drag up to get the number row, this isn't CM6 specific. I don't remember the CM6 keyboard supporting multi-touch, I think I even tried.
Is there a better swype keyboard that we can install?? for example remove the one that came with the 3.70 software and install a better looking version or the white version i see on moto devices??
what happens if i delete sprint_swype and get the one off the swype site like i did with my hero?
thank you!!

You can use the Swype installed on your device or the beta version, they should both work fine. You would probably want to remove the Sprint Swype first before installing the beta. I went back to the beta initially as it wasn't included in my ROM choice, but ended up figuring out how to use the Sprint Swype and jumped back to that. I believe they both work about the same in my experience. If its just theming you are after, I recommend checking here. It themes the keyboard picture and the trace line, and in my opinion looks a lot sharper than the Sprint or Beta Swype. You have to be comfortable with root and metamorph however.

I finally decided to root my phone and install CM7.
I love it, but the lack of a decent keyboard is killing me. I've searched everywhere and can't find one.
Anyone know how I can get back my original keyboard? Or at least a better one?
It'd also be nice to get HTC's camera software back.

Ultra keyboard and swiftkey are both good, available in the market. No htc keyboards work on CM as far as I know. Same with the camera. If you want those things, you'd need to flash a sense ROM. So, AOSP or Sense is the question.

You could sign up for the Swype Beta and get Swype for free.
+1 on SwiftKey, one of the best. Good luck

Been using smart keyboard and its very similar to the HTC keyboard.
if you like the sense-like keyboard feel, try swiftkey. it is pretty amazing how accurately it predicts words. almost spooky.
i personally use the newest swype beta, and am loving it. i can type extremely fast and accurately, the voice typing is awesome and crazy good, and i can type one handed faster than i can with two hands on swiftkey. try it you wont be sorry. the beta is still open so just sign up and you will get accepted within 10 minutes.
I upgraded to 2.3 and one feature I loved was its touchscreen keyboard. I went back to the frozen rom and was wondering if theres a way to get the keyboard from 2.3 onto 2.2?

Actually, I'm pretty sure it's in the market under "Gingerbread Keyboard".

Thanks I see it and got it. But I cant use it. I have it setup for my input but it wont pop up?
Nevermind, rebooted and it work. Thank you
I like Better Keyboard 8 just throwing that out there.
Settings, locale and text, enable it.
I just flashed Calkulin new ICS rom and for some reason the htc keyboard crashing after typing a few letters. Ive searched this forum and found no answer. I PM calkulin about this problem and of course no reply. Can someone suggest a keyboard that just as good as this one or at least a fix to keep it from crashing out.
I like this keyboard because of the dedicated typing area it gives you when in portrait mode.

May I suggest Perfect Keyboard Free or the AI type keyboard. They are both good keyboards to me. I like Perfect Keyboard Free a little better. They are highly configurable and feel like the htc keyboard that I had on my EVO. I am currently using Perfect Keyboard on FC07 without a problem. It is fast, responsive, and does what I want it to do.

I've seen a couple posts with this issue, as well as it happened to me. For some reason the ics roms do not like the HTC ime keyboard. Perfect keyboard would be the way to go

Go keyboard is the best in my opinion. You can customize theme and everything

If you use ICS Rom, there are lots of chances that you may see the weird stop errors from many places something like system apps, user apps and even from the network communications.
For many cases, if it started failing then it will continue to fail until you remove the failing apps. Or sometimes, rebooting the phone resolve the issue but it could happen again in any moment.
So, best way to resolve the issue in ICS Rom would be reinstalling the failing app.
In my opinion, it seems like there're some bad process or service running that makes other applications force-stopped. Once the application force stopped, usually the system is getting warm and hot (meaning it's continuously retrying to launch the application or doing some post processing).
If the re-installing the application does not resolve the issue, then the best way would be 'waiting' until stable ICS Rom comes out in the market.
For me, lots of application re-installed because of force stop error -
Youtube(stock), Waze, Xing player, n7player, battery monitor, email (stock), facebook(stock), Root Toolbox( seems like compatibility issue with ICS)...
I had the problem of the keyboard popping up even though I repeatedly selected SlideIt. I finally just took it out by way of TB
I use htcime_mod on my non-sense (lol at the pun) roms as well. I found that disabling the Prediction/Spell Correction/Word Completion under the Text Input option keeps the keyboard from crashing. This may suck for those of you who rely on auto-correction and suggestions, but i personally have a vendetta against t9 and i only use this keyboard for the ease of symbols access.
I proffer that the issue is thus dependent of the way the IME accesses the dictionary to correct/suggest words. Maybe the libraries are renamed/moved, and it is trying to access an invalid path? Just a theory.
Above all, remember that YMMV because I am using an HTC Vision (T-mobile G2) running CM9 pre-alpha 2.5 unofficial ICS build.
Hope this helps,
Rec

I had issues on Calk's so I downloaded Goodness and extracted the HTC IME MOD apk from it and pushed it to system/app. After setting the permissions and restarting I haven't had a problem since. Give it a shot and see.
