Hi all
Yes, you read the subject right
I'm about to sell my HTC Sensation and I ordered my Xperia Arc S today. One of the only things I expect to miss about the Sensation is the HTC keyboard.
Can anyone recommend a good app that will give me the kind of improved functionality over the standard Android keyboard that HTC Sense provides?
I can end up trying myself when the Arc S arrives in a few days, but I'm just excited in the meantime
Thanks all,
schnide
I'm using htc ime mod app.
That's a bit older app without of arrows and swipe gestures but works very well.
You need two lib files and two apks (clicker hi and keyb).
I use stock looking (unthemed).

Do someone know if HTC keyboard from Rezound or One X have been "exported" from Sense to install them on other phones?
The because is that HTC Ime i found are not working on Galaxy Nexus, i think the cause.is the 720p display that is not supported by older HTC keyboard.
Do someone know more than me?
Or maybe they don't work because the galaxy nexus doesn't use the sense framework?

Previous HTC_IME on Sense ROMs worked on non-Sense ROMs. It just requires a little bit retweaking but it shouldn't be too difficult to do. Not saying that I'd do it because I don't know how. But I just know that on previous versions of Android HTC_IME works.
HTC_IME
If you want to try porting guys here is the HTC_IME extracted from my one x.
jonasl's HTC_IME Keyboard for ICS works great for me. The only problem is the keyboard is low res. It looks a little blurred but it's full size. I tried replacing the pngs with some from the htc rezound which should be 720p but I'm a noob and it just crashes. I'm sure I have to edit some config files somewhere... I'll keep trying but here's jonasl's apk. Perhaps I'll try the ones from the one x.
any luck with your attempt at replacing pngs?!
Yes, I would love to get a working version of the current HTC OneX IME keyboard. Please make this happen.
Count me in. First thing, I was thinking about, when I held the One X in my hands.

In the original jonasl's file the voice button does not work. Pressed and does nothing.
Any hi-res HTC IME?

Thanks. I want the One X keyboard ported to any 720p Android.
Bumppppppppp
You realize that any keyboard from the one x and rezound are already completely 720p? That's not the problem, the gnex isn't the only 720p phone out there. It's not working because sense is a ***** when it comes to porting anything from it to aosp. It requires a lot more work than I think most people would be willing to do. But it sure is awesome keyboard, and I would love it on both my phones when I get a gnex. Typing with it right now...well, swyping with it actually.

Those who are really interested, I've tried it out already on my Galaxy Nexus, HD just that removed it cause I dislike the arrows on the bottem and the space bar being so small, hopefully the author or someone else can have more settings to remove certain things on the keyboard.

I also tried this one a little while back and it's awesome but it would not let me change to the compact keyboard style which I like on the older HTC ime keyboard. The one with two letters on each key. Maybe I did something wrong or that feature has been removed but I will try it again, thanks.
Edit: it's the same one I tried before and it's awesome but it doesn't have the option for the compact keyboard. Thanks anyways.

any hope for making real htc keyboard to work on our sgs3?
I think the HTC keyboard only works on Sense ROMs, but I could be wrong. I personally hate the Samsung keyboard burning using Smart Keyboard Pro with a Sense 4.0 them and it works brilliantly

Instead, you can try using swiftkey 3 beta. it has the functionality of htc keyboard and more. use the white theme to make it look identical.
Get it here : SWIFTKEY

No need for root. Not sure if any dev could port a sense rom to the S3. It's usually h/w dependent to be ported successfully to other htc models (let alone a different brand).
thanks
Can someone who has used a third party keyboard post back if it shows a enter button in gtalk app ?
Samsung keyboard only has a smiley button and its a bit of a stretch to reach the send button
Thanks
hi there,
been using my htc one x for few month now since release.
i've been using gosms simply for the reason that it has emoji plugin.
i was wondering if anyone can tell me how or re-direct me to the correct thread to get emoji working across all apps via rooted system tweaks?
that works for ics4 / htc one x.
Thank you.

If you use AOKP it has emoji support
I personaly still use Handcent, for the screen-waking-popup
An app - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1794797
A manual method - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1724389
The app worked on my HTC Inspire (AOSP rom) but on my Evo Design, the app isn't requesting Superuser access. I'd try the app first, then the manual method if it doesn't work.

Even if you add global emoji support through one of the mods linked by Simba501, you wouldn't see a nice colorful pictorial representations of the icons in all apps. you'll see a text representation like shown in this image. And to insert them you'll need a special keyboard or an app , so the experience is much poorer than using an SMS app that has built in emoji support. If you dont like GoSMS then try Handcent, that is what I use, IMO its a much better alternative than the built in SMS app or any other 3rd party SMS app out there.

I don't think so, the one they have for Sense isn't the default emoji you get. For example, like iPhone has a huge collection of it. If there's an option for HTC Sense based to display it all and also have it enabled as input to social sites (twitter/fb/instagram) then where is it?
Not as input - that's in the 4.2 keyboard (but if you're rooted you can flash the 4.2 iWinn IME)
But emojii show up. ?

I tried it. Without predictions. Awesome stuff. Thanks a lot.
I use TouchPal Keyboard and it's all right. I've tried a bunch of different ones and i find this the best out of all.
I loved the HTC stock keyboard when i had swype (T-mo app) but since i put a custom ROM on it, that's gone... and i just can't type without swype any more...

If you are using cm9 or 10 ,then go for xperia s keyboard. Nice one . Try it .

Use a 3rd party keyboard or if you have root you can revert back to old keyboard.

You can try "Perfect Keyboard". It has a free version with compact layout.
