SwiftKey X
Smart Keyboard Pro
used to use smart keyboard pro on the thunderbolt, tried using it here but the stock ICS keyboard is just too good

I think there is the option to try them yourself. It's a very personal preference type of subject.

SwiftKey X. But I liked the stock keyboard a lot too.

Stock keyboard for me as well. I had SwiftKey X previously, but just can't bring myself to replace stock at the moment on the Galaxy Nexus.
SwiftKey x until google fixes the landscape lag issue. I like stock a lot but the lagginess drives me up the wall.

i'm running on stock. i do miss swype though.
Stock in landscape mode with 2 thumbs.
Stock with auto correction turned up to very aggressive.. very amazing
Swype! Love it.

Swype, and loving it, wonder when the ics version will be out

I use Swiftkey. Can't get use to stock. I think I prefer entering numbers on swift-key X a lot more.
Using slideIT although there's a little bug where the shift key is not reacting and you have to activate -> deactivate the numblock to make it react again.

Custom ROM? or.....how are you using Skype? This is the first phone I've been interested in trying it on and no ICS compatibility. Do the old .APKs work?
SlideIT. Got it for $0.10. I missed swype. It has a good keyboard whether you use the slide feature or not.
Modded Swype.

What's your opinion?
I was just messing around and tried Swype, SwiftKey, stock, and the DroidX Multitouch. I definitely have to say the DroidX Multitouch is the best for both prediction, correction, and UI.
The nicest thing about the DroidX keyboard is that the multitouch prediction works on the hardware keyboard as well (good or bad thing).
Easily Swype FTW
I am trying out the multitouch keyboard right now and all i have to say that on the epic its epic. Its insanely fast. I like swype for when im driving since i can use 1 finger but for pure speed the droid x keyboard wins hands down.

Where can you get the droid x keyboard?
Look in the evo forum

where can you get a working HTC evo keyboard with arrows? I can't find one.
My favorite is Smart Keyboard Pro & Droid X keyboard. Both keyboards have built in multitouch. Smart keyboard pro is more customizable and looks better in my opinion.
Texting speed record was smashed with swype. It is by far the fastest keyboard you can get on a touchscreen phone.
Droid x for me

i used to use swiftkey because it had a lot of features most notably was the sms reader, it would scan your sms and "learn" commonly used words. worked witht he hw keyboard too, but i find myself using the sw one more often and im trying out thickbuttons right now
I would have said swype before i read this post.. but after reading this i downloaded the droid x keyboard and thats by far my favorite.. it actually makes me want to use teh screen instead of the physical keyboard

Another vote for Smart Keyboard Pro. Many options, languages, multitouch, several skins....
Tried it against HTC-IME v27 (nexus forum) which is also great, but SKP seemed a bit better...less errors IMO
So far I like Swiftkey. I didn't really want to learn Swype. I like the way Swiftkey learns to use autocorrect better. I was pretty impressed that I can send a lot of texts by typing ONE letter and then using the suggestions to complete the message.
I like ultra keyboard the best so far. It's well worth the dough. It's highly configurable. It has a swype method that I use in xt9 that's awesome!

Coming from the blackberry after 7 years, I was skeptical about onscreen in general. But, I was impressed with the evo after 2 weeks of predictive typing.
However, swype on epic is so effortless at times.
Overall I am more productive and efficient over the blackberry I feel.
I will try the droid x keyboard now...
epic. Where do I find it??

I personally use and love swype. I text a ton and it gets the job done for me. I think a lot of it depends on personal preference though.
i love android default or ics keyboard that comes with swagged out stock rom i have big hands and i seem to make less error with them

The ICS keyboard is sweet looking I can agree with that. I have big hands too I think that's why Swype helps me out, plus you can theme it to look like the ICS keyboard or the Stock keyboard

I use the Gingerbread keyboard from the market and love it, simple, easy to use
I love the gingerbread keyboard. But there really isnt a best, its what you feel comfortable using.
Swype beta!
Swyped from mah 3vo!
The Hacker's Keyboard especially useful if you use ConnectBot for SSH access. Yes it has working Tab/Ctrl/Esc keys and arrow keys.
Dont forget the dictionaries, they are free too.
I use the stock android keyboard most of the time, or thumb keyboard when I want to switch it up. I can put TONS of skins on thumb keyboard, so it keeps it interesting.
Swype beta FTW!

I use SwiftKey. Have been using for 2 years and the nice thing about the keyboard is when I flash a new rom, the language database is stored on the sdcard. Great keyboard

Swiftkey X. The predictive text is the best I've tried.

I had to change the original layout. While i do admit i like it better look-wise, i have a hard time typing fast with it. I'm using the ics keyboard. Capable of typing faster and feels more accurate. How about you guys? If yes, which one do yoy use ?
Also using the ICS keyboard. Its just better to use IMO

Yeah, Swiftkey X really is the best Been using beta 3 since the day it first came out, it rocks!
Guess im going to DL and try swiftkey now haha
Swype Beta, been using it on my DHD and now on the One X
I just can't get on with Swiftkey, I'm somehow much quicker on the ICS keyboard. Each to their own I guess
Swiftkey X, hands down the best keyboard.
Smart keyboard pro..
I have used Swype keyboard since my X10 and can't get on with any other keyboard.

I've always preferred aosp keyboards, 2.2, 2.3, 3.0 and now this one. Although it could use a calibration option like the sense keyboard offers.

i couldn't get it to stop changing my words even after turning that stuff off in settings. i'm using AOSP keyboard now and will use swype if i want to trace.
Swift key it. Typing with my eyes closed. It learns and adapt to ur typing too. Best so far.

The AOSP keyboard with auto correct set to "Very Agressive" is amazing. I just wish the ones on the market had the actual AOSP sounds.

Hey guys,
Just trying to get a few opinions on what you think is the best keyboard for the HTC One X. I just purchased Swift 3 keyboard and I think it's definitely worth it.
Much better than the original keyboard for sure. I really like the samsung galaxy nexus stock android keyboard that it comes with.
By the way jelly bean 4.1.1 is awesome!
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
SwiftKey is superb, they isn't a better keyboard out there.
Swiftkey 3 hands down :good::highfive:
Better than the stock android keyboard that is on the galaxy nexus though? With jelly bean it's pretty hard to beat I think.

Smart Keyboard here. Bedt there is.
Happy with the HTC stock
Using SwiftKey and loving it

Swiftkey 3
I used the SwiftKey Trial till it got over. Amazing keyboard, definitely worth the price.
Now I'm using Swype Beta and it kicks ass! Its so easy to type/swype words xD
Must say that after using SwiftKey 3 keyboard for only half an hour it seems like it is probably the best there is.
The predictive text is actually quite amazing if you ask me!
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Another thing is, keyboard prediction RIM was showing off with its BB10 keyboard is already there on android with SwiftKey! The prediction is brilliant!
A.I. type keyboard. Brilliant! Best predictive text I've seen. A one touch £ if set to UK english, top row that can be hidden with a swipe for numbers and symbols, a drag handle to change the height at will, cut/copy/paste/select on long press of C and numerous themes. I can't fault it!
SwiftKey still the best.

I use hackers keyboard , will try swift keyboard in future
Swiftkey, ive had it since it was in beta stage and bought it immediately
Since I don't use text prediction / auto correction, I am satisfied with the stock AOSP ICS keyboard. Love the way it looks and I can type really fast on it without any prediction.
swiftkey 3 by far!
Does anyone know if it's possible to get a Galaxy S4 stock keyboard for CyanogenMod.
I love the stock keyboard in CyanogenMod but I like the idea of numbers above the top row of the keyboard.

same for me!
Well I've looked into this problem and I have learnt that it's not possible because CyanogenMod does not contain the same framework as the Samsung Roms. It looks like you either run a Samsung Rom or buy a keyboard app that can be styled and modified to look like the Samsung Keyboard.
