Hard keyboard, soft keyboard, switch inputs - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
My question might sound stupid but is there is any way to change the keyboard layout on the DZ depending on what keyboard is used, hardware or software when having swiftkey, Swype and the stock Android keyboard ?
Thanks.

Better keyboard is great. Black keys outlined in white with great spell correct. I use Better Keyboard 8. Also skins for it. Adjustable size of keys also

This.
Tried BetterKB, Gingerbread, Swype, SlideIt, Ultra, but SmartKeyb pro is easily the best for me.
Personally HTC IME Mod is the best fit for me, nice big buttons, and plenty of useful features, like moving through text with the volume rocker or even much needed spell check for the hardware KB.
Swype. /thread
I still go back to the droid x keyboard, I love it.
themed gingerbread keyboard. Best. Ever

Agree. Swype is the fastest and easiest for me. You do have to have good spelling to get the best result out of it though!
Orderwise you ends up making silky ousts on treats

Can keyboards be combined? For instance Gingerbread with Swype
Shapewriter. It's like Swype, done right. I find Swype to be way too inaccurate, and I dislike the popup. Shapewriter is more accurate and has a bar of word suggestions above the keyboard rather than a popup.
It was pulled from the market when Nuance bought out the developer, but you can still find it fairly easily (as in, linked in the forums at www.shapewriter.com).
It is always one of my first installs, along with Handcent and Androzip.

search "go keyboard" in the market... its the best alternative
You can try Smart Keyboard Pro.
Swift is my keyboard of choice.
The predictive function (can be turned off) is perfect too.

My vote is also for swiftkey, tried them all, but the word predictions in this, are just perfect.

Maybe the HTC_IME should work

onscreen navigation hides the last row of the keyboard partially.

I flashed BCM RC4.1U2 last night after being on RC3.6U2 for many months... as with the last ROM, i find that the on screen navigation keys hide the last row of the keyboard partially. I feel that the hidden portion has increased in the latest ROM. My hardware keys are fairly unresponsive with both ROMs and was forced to use the ICS onscreen keys and in general i find the onscreen navigation keys easier on the fingers...
Can i move the keyboard up by a few pixels to solve this problem? Is there a patch or setting available that will do this... ??
Hi, don't know the answer but could you tell me how to enable the soft keys in ICS?

In BCM ICS Rom (now you find it as SpazeDog) you have to check software navigation bar in settings>display.
in others ICS ROM there are some mods that make the job .. you can find it searching "softkey" as keyword in their threads.
Same for me but alternate keyboard (swiftkey x) works fine for me
