you have to install gingerbread keyboard from market and use an alternative launcher as the home screen ( search for Gingerbread Launcher on the market for example ).

have donwloadet it. but i have always the htc keyboard :/

Go to menu > settings > language & keyboard and select enable gingerbread keyboard. Then in any text input field, long press and select input method. Choose gingerbread keyboard, and you're done.

Froyo 2.2 Nexus 1 ROM c/w PHONE keypad ?

Just flashed my first few ROMs last night and I'm loving it I've put a couple of different ones on and I do like Sense but I really love the Nexus One type ROMS, only problem is I just can't live without the 'Phone' Keypad type keyboard that comes with Sense.
So is there a good stable 2.2 Nexus ROM for the desire that includes a Phone Keypad keyboard ?
I've searched but it's easy to get lost in here and I just can't seem to find one (if one exists).
Defrost, presuming you mean the HTC keyboard. Settings>keyboard>HTC. Keyboard

Try Dialer One from market, it's simmilar to HTC Phone application.
You can't have native HTC widgets and applications right now.
If you searching for HTC_IME keyboard, you can find mod here that work on 2.2 stock roms.
Ok thanks for that.
It's the 'Phone' Keypad keyboard I'm after, as in the XT9 type keyboard.
EDIT: It's for text input in apps such as Messaging so Dialer one isn't suitable. HTC_IME keyboard I've tried and it just gives the qwerty type KB (unless I missed something).
htc ime mod is the same as the standard htc keyboard. Go into settings and choose the keyboard that suits you.

I really thought I'd tried that and it never had the Phone keypad keyboard option, I'll re-flash the nexus rom and have another try - was the HTC_IME Keyboard in the Market for the nexus ?

Install both clicker and the mod
Settings > Language + Keyboard > Tick IME box > Now click IME mod settings > Keyboard types > Phone keypad.
or you could just go to messages and when on keypad hold down optical enter button and select input method.
Thankyou all
All sorted now, really loving the Froyo without Sense now I have the right KB back
hey guys.. is there anyway to do the opposite?
im using a HTC sense 2.2 rom but love the default froyo keyboard. is there anyway to install it?
cheers!
hello
hello,do you have htc chinese default input?
i cant find it, and i need that input very much!

How to switch to Chinese handwriting on official Froyo ROM

Hi,
I upgraded to the official Froyo ROM. I see the options for the Chinese handwriting, but I can't find a way to switch to the Chinese handwriting mode.
Please help.
1. Ensure you are using HTC's stock keyboard, then only:
Press Menu, select settings > scroll down > select Language & keyboard > select Touch Input > select International keyboard > scroll all the way down > select 2nd last chinese word.
You're done!
You can configure simple chinese or traditional chinese in the Chinese Text Input option
If think he is talking about actually drawing the characters.
Hi,
The problem is that I can see that there are many different Chinese input options but the handwriting option is actually missing! Is this a know bug? Any workaround?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Any update on this? Really quite odd that the options are there yet one cannot select the handwriting keyboard.
It seems hand-writing only works in Contacts..
I have been looking for the Chinese handwriting option all over too.
In the Settings / Language & keyboard / Touch Input / Chinese Text input, there is a Handwriting options section.
Lets say I go back out and write a SMS, there is no way to select handwriting mode. I have already enabled all the Chinese input methods. However none of them gives access to handwriting.
Am I missing something? Or is the handwriting feature missing from this build?

Here what i have done to make touch input working:
Setting / Language & keyboard / Touch Input / International Keyboard / Tick English and PinYin and HandWriting (tick all the options except this one: stroke input)
and then make sure you have no other input method installed, at least if you have others installed, you can touch the input area on the screen until a window shows up that tells you to choose one of them
I got Chinese handwriting keyboard option now. It works exactly like the HTC Desire HD now. Chinese character recognition is extremely good. It is now available in MCCM's HD v2.0 Desire HD build. It got released when I wrote my previous message.
It can be found at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=856312
The build has some nice new features. It has a few minor issues like the default skins are missing. I always customise so that does not matter too much. It is still a battery hog. It does not seem too stable as it has rebooted back to WinMo twice so far. Overall, the build is still very nice.
Previously, I was using MDJ's v4.0 build of the Desire HD rom.

I have four chinese input options: zhuying, changjie, pinyin and bihua.
but none of them is handwriting... the "bihua" is for you to choose, not write on the screen...
Please help.
p/s: sorry for hijacking the Desire forum as my android is Desire based.

Two issues with this rom:
A) can't get home switcher to stay loaded so that I can switch to Launcher Pro. Is there anyway around this?
B) Is there any way to get rid of the HTC embedded mod keyboard and use Swift Key? There is no setting under KEYBOARD which allows you to choose which keyboard to use?
Thanks, in Advance....

A) Ok do this presss menu>settings>applications>manage applications>press the "All" tab>Scroll down to HTC Sense and tap it> scroll down and select "clear defaults"> now from the Home button on your phone(looks like a house)>A Complete Action Using window should appear> Check the "Use by default for this action" button>then select launcher pro......Laucher pro should be your default launcher now.
B) under settings>Language & Keyboard. Check the box next to all the keyboards to enable them. now open a text or something where you need to type. tap & hold in the text field until the "Edit Text" window appears then select Input Method and then pick your poison....DONE.
Hope that answers your questions bud.

Navigaton keys on keyboard

Hi,
i´m missing the navigation key on my new HTC 10 :crying:
I find it difficult to get to the right position without them...
Is there any chance to get them ?
Thanks Chris
You could install default HTC keyboard like the m8 has. I use leedroids Tom where this keyboard is implemented. If you use the TouchPal keyboard you can also as the option by adding the edit shortcut

Hi,
the TouchPal keyboard is the default HTC keyboard ...
I contacted the online support form HTC and they told me that there ist no option to show navigation keyboards because they want to give us more free screen
How do you "add the edit shortcut" ?
Thanks Chris

What I ment was the "old default" keyboard like the HTC m8 got. For the edit button, press the icon top left of your keyboard (TouchPal icon I guess) and then press and hold the <I> icon (this is the edit icon) to add it as shortcut. It will show up on the right side of the TouchPal icon, see print screen.
