How so I go to stock kb on fresh 3.2 - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The title basically says it all. How do I go to the stock android keyboard instead of the HTC one. The HTC one is always laggy for me after awhile so I want the stock one. How do I change it?

Fresh 3.2 brings 2 keyboards: touch input and HTC_IME mod... just press and hold on any text field and select input method, from there you can switch to the other kb

Ok cool I got there once before and couldn't remember how. So is there a way to get the stock or the Droid x keyboard maybe. The HTC one just gets laggy on me and I want to so some testing to see what is better.

[Q] Gingerbread Keyboard

Gingerbread Keyboard for Rooted Devices
Gingerbread Keyboard is out for the DroidX and Droid2. Are there any developers that can help get it ported to the Incredible??
I flashed it and it works on the inc too.
Roger that, its working for me. Its taking a bit to get used to the keys in landscape mode though. They seem a bit flat.

Doesn't work for the desire z port. :/

Calibrating Screen on CyanogenMod 7

Hi,
I flashed my Desire with the Cyanogenmod 7 and was wondering, where I can calibrate the screen. When using the orignal rom, there was an option to do so. Now the screen does not really respond the way I like, especially when using the keyboard.
Thanks

No clue? Can't imagine there is no solution.
You mean when it asks you to type something on the keyboard? I haven't seen that in ages... maybe its only on sense roms.

if you have the htc ime_mod you can calibrate that under the keyboard options.
just hit the options key in any input field and it will take you to the options.
then, calibrate should be under text input
Am I right in thinking this calibrates the keyboard and not the screen then?

Right. I actually ment calibrating the keyboard. This might be only on sense roms. That was my first guess too

[Q] Switch keyboard types easily?

I'm sure there used to be an easy way to change the keyboard type on the DHD, without having to go into Settings ie switching between QWERTY/Phone Pad/Compact.... I can't remember where this was.
Anybody know?
Hold down any text input box whilst selected, press input method and then choose your keyboard. Note that only the keyboards you have enabled in settings will appear.

When I hold down a text input box I just get the paste option... unless I'm misunderstanding...?
Thanks.

Do you have other keyboards installed AND enabled in Settings > Language & keyboard ?
Well, I've got the three standard HTC keyboards listed there... I don't see where one enables them as such, just a radio button to select the one you want to use.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Oh, I mis read your post. As already said before, it's that hard to change on Android.
The workaround is to install an additional input method; I installed Swype. So I have qwerty on Swype and switch to phone-keypad on the default keyboard.
Has anyone got the gingerbread keyboard to work on desire HD, mine keep foreclosing whilst it works flawlessly on my desire.

New keyboard

There's a new kb on the market called SwiftKey X and its pretty bad as.. I it can look throughout sms, gmail, twitter and facebook to pick out your typing habits and kinda learns how you type/talk.. Nice setup and the word prediction is outta this world.. for instance it will let you type a few words and actually predict what you're next words will be... Check it out I promise you won't be disappointed
* I'm just sayin......
Ya I have the original SwiftKey keyboard. SwiftKey X so far doesn't want to play nice with Keyboard Manager, and the hardware keyboard, though. I use Swype for portrait and SwiftKey for landscape and it's gotten stuck with the alt button a couple of times and I had to switch to another keyboard. But I think it'll be really good when they get the bugs worked out.

[Q] keyboard Dictionary

I just wondered is there any way of viewing the words the phone has saved as I've been typing as I have noticed a few times I've saved ones I didn't mean too. I would like to remove these from the dictionary if its possible?
This might help. This is in Sense 3.6, and is possibly similar in 4.0. Won't hurt to try anyway. Go to Settings-Language & Keyboard-and select the 3 line button in the right side next to Touch Input. It will be at the very bottom

Thanks; I will try this on my replacement when it arrives later today and hopefully it will be the same for Sense 4.0
It's settings, language and keyboard, HTC sense input, personal dictionary and then edit personal dictionary.
