Anyone running keyboards from jonasl or the skinned version from gimpsta on an Archos 101? I have installed the lo resolution one and it is working, but it isn't the correct width. The keyboard isn't as wide as the screen in landscape or portrait. Completely functionable, just not full width. I have tried every configuration, I believe. Anyone get it to work full width?
Here are the threads associated with them and gimpsta's site for skinning.

I just tried this on my a43 and this is definitely a nice keyboard except for landscape. It goes full width which means the left edge of the keyboard hides under the system buttons.
Bummer, I've been looking for a better keyboard.
Smart Keyboard Pro is the best for me. Many settings , skins , arrows mode , ... !!!!
I am using the Notion Adam Ink keyboard on my 101 and it's the best tablet keyboard I seen.
Where did you get the Adam keyboard?
My last Intruder was a Grumman A-6E.

There have been many keyboards suggested as of late, and I am still in search for an iPhone replica keyboard...
the main reason I'm looking for it, is the minimalistic design, and the spacing between the keys. I don't want all of the arrows, and other buttons to change launguage etc etc...
has anyone created this for the HD yet? if not, and someone is willing, I would be willing to make a donation towards who creates it.
side note: iphone replica bubble style display. looking for a wvga version for the hd as well.
Have u try this?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=479464
ya, that's what I'm using now.. it has way too many buttons, all of the arrows on the bottom, and the keys are still too small.
I don't get why everyone is making the keyboards for the HD smaller than the iphone, and the HD screen is BIGGER than the iphones...
I aknowledge the fact that we all like our keyboards skinned differently so they don't look like anything out there - which is rad in my opinion, that's why this forum is here, so we can all customize, and personalize our phones.
If I knew how to create keyboards, I would be on it in a heartbeat.
sorry for the rant..
You should try PCM Keyboard http://www.pocketcm.com/keyboard2.php
There you can customize your Keyboard just the way you want it and it has the feedback and the space between the letters(Skin) that you want. But I don't know if it works perfectly for the HD because I haven't installed it on my HD yet. But on my Prophet the old version it worked fine and looked just like the iphone.

Yep times 2. But im using swype. This is my best keyboard and better than slide it.
I use smart keyboard - far better than stock or even the HTC IME mod
Can you tell me in what way a keyboard is better than another?

Well the stock one annoyed me because the word suggestions appear over the top of what your writing, so you can't read what you've just typed.
smart keyboard has a section above the keyboard where the suggestions appear, so they don't get in the way.
also i found i hit the full stop button too often on the stock one as the space bar was too small.
smart keyboard has a free version so try that. but it doesn't have the word correction - that's only in the pro verison
switched to swype a few days ago, don't know if i'll be able to use traditional keyboards again lol
the word prediction is just amazing and much faster than typing on the standard htc sense keyboard
Swype without a doubt.
100% recommended.

Keyboard as portrait mode when in landscape use?
Hi guys! With stock keyboard on Desire, it is pretty good to use it in portrait mode, however, when you try in landscape mode -to take benefits of the larger buttons as well- you must forgo the rest on the page/app or whatever on the screen, because the screen is then full with keyboard and text input box only.
Is there any keyboard which is not covering the whole screen (this may be possible with an input field consisting of one, scrollable line) ??
i find swype incredibly slow, there is no way that one finger sliding to each key is faster than tapping with two thumbs in opinion.
Such choices are relative by definition.
IME, HTC_IME mod keyboard is the best all round followed by Swype in some regards. However, Swype disabling multi-touch in the browser kills its appeal on my end unless I'm using an app where I don't require the zoom feature.
And yep, Swype-ing words is faster, much faster, as odd as that might sound... simply because you don't have to hit the actual keys to bring the whole word up in prediction, and even when you hit a few wrong keys in a word, very surprisingly, Swype 99/100 auto-corrects the word or at least offers the correct word to choose -- far more forgiving than the other traditional keyboards. The detection, prediction and auto-correction are what make the product work. I basically scribble everything in if using it, and do it very fast with little error, less than a traditional on-screen keyboard if trying that much speed anyway (sure, there is an initial learning curve like with anything new. It 'aint a 2 day affair).

This is one major beef of mine on this phone too. It makes the landscape mode quite redundant in many usages.
I don't know of any such app yet.

I can't see why people like Swype over slide it.
I have installed Swype 3 times and each time go back to slide it. Swype although in beta just isn't as good.
For example when you want to do a double letter you need to do a stupid little circle over the letter. WHY? Also its not as accurate. Also I have consistently had a 40% fail rate with words.
Slide it is accurate, I hardly get any mistakes, it knows when you want or need a double letter. I can almost write as quick as if I were typing on a full size keyboard.
The only advantage Swype has is it looks good. I'm amazed people rate it over the far superior slide it.

How To use HTC_IME? how to mods it?
What I'd really like is to be able to use Swype in portrait, and HTC in landscape...
This is much better than all those:

Great, I have 2 change requests:
1. The candidates highlights colours are still green. But they should be blue.
2. Black keys would fit more to our sgs2 than white.
ive posted up anougher option with black primary keys as for changing the candidate highlights to blue,i will need more time
Take all the time you want. No hurry

what's the difference between this and the HTC IME mod that you can theme yourself?
is this keyboard multi-touch?
can we have those blue buttons in grey instead?
I unfortunately do not get it out, did everything according to the described procedure done in under Languages & keyboard chops, but unfortunately I'm still propagated even the "old" keyboard?
Rom LeoMar75 if this helps any further and it is guilt?
Thank you in advance.
Thanks works super

ummmmmmm might not be compatible with that perticular rom
works great for me, though I don't use the default e-mail app so can't replicate the freezing.
Thanks!
What htc ime version is it? I already got one that doesnt require installation of the clicker_hi.apk or whatever its called, so just wondering if there are any differences?
thank you so much
works great
works on the Epic touch perfectly!
Same problem with stock's email app in SGS2
OMG...reminds me of my HTC years lol...
This is a great keyboard, but really need to get it working with the stock email app before its of any real use.
Keep up the good work and hopefully you will be able to sort this issue
Can you put in gray and black?
I'm guessing you can't edit this using the kitchen that the original creator has can you? Idk.

Currently you need to be rooted to do this.
You can try other keyboards that you can change the color.
I am currently using SwiftKey keyboard. But there are other good keyboards that you can change the color.
I use Kii Keyboard myself...very customizable, and more importantly, it has a dedicated number row on top, just like the stock keyboard. It also supports split keyboard in landscape mode.
Thumb keyboard is also worth considering. Lots if customization including altering the size of keys, colour etc.
Really suits the Note 2 as the landscape keyboard is split allowing for thumb friendly typing

Go to the Kii Keyboard settings / Keyboard Layout & Keys, and under the section called Additional Key Rows, there's an option for "Show top number row". You can have the top number row show up for portrait, landscape, both, or neither.
IMHO, smart keyboard is one of the best alternatives on Android
Hello folks,
I've searched the forum for an alternative keyboard option for HDX. Not many threads... Can anyone recommend a keyboard with arrow keys in layout that can be adjusted to NOT be overlapped by a black bar on the right in the landscape mode? I tried Thumb and Go. They both get cut off. Especially bad for the Russian layout...
Thanks!

Script keyboard
Maybe not as alternative but as an additional keyboard MyScript Stylus is perfect one.

Works well on HDX. Can be downloaded from 1Mobile, Google Play etc. It's free.
