Hi,
I own a HTC Sensation XE and I use the ARHD v6.51 ROM with ICS v4.0.3. Before this device I have used a HTC Desire HD with Gingerbread v2.35. The HTC Keyboard with Gingerbread contained Arrow-Keys below the spacebar - the new ICS Keyboard does not have this four keys.
Is there any chance to get the old Gingerbread-Keyboard to work? Most important is that I want to use the HTC Keyboard, no other solution.
Thanks!

Unlikely that it will work. I haven't see any like that for ICS.
The HTC IME mod will work in ICS (tested this) but it has no arrow keys.
Smart Keyboard Pro on the Market has arrow keys and is functionally identical to the HTC keyboard, with more capabilities.
is this enough for you?

Thanks for the link. Will check it out soon (when there will be an open Download-Slot ).
The most important thing is that I can import my personal dictionary to the keyboard because it saves so much time - and my whole dictionary was created on 3-4 different HTC Keyboards over the past few months.
I checked out the Keyboard. Many thanks. Its exactly what I need
heres a screenshot of my new keyboard....
My HTC sensation keyboard
Here is a sample snapshot of my keyboard with arrows including font changes !!!!
WTF! Comic Sans MS???
Nope its not comic sans, its a font called ChinaCat.
Not only the keyboard, this font is applied everywhere on the phone.

Hi, thanks....its an app called "Thumb keyboard" , downloaded from google play, and for the fonts, you can use an app called "Font changer", that too from play store.
You need to be rooted to apply them.
Cheers.!!

are we ever going to be able to get a multitouch keyboard on our evos?
The default HTC keyboard supports multi-touch.
lol fail. Did you try typing on the keyboard with two fingers at the same time?

Not for me.
While the stock keyboard does not support multitouch, there are a couple 3rd party ones that do. Smart Keyboard Pro (I think thats the name) definitely does, not 100% about others though. I've used SKP for awhile and find it to be just as easy to use.
Better keyboard does not, even tho it says it does on the app description. Smart keyboard also does not from what i tried. If you do find one let us know! Maybe we can port the keyboard from the Droid X over.
This has nothing to do with a Multi-Touch Keyboard but a Virtual Keyboard nonetheless...does anyone know if there's a way to use the Virtual Keyboard from regular 2.1 Android on our EVOs?, because I personally think that Keyboard is better than HTC's.
Sooo basically the evos hardware dosent allow for multitouch keyboards?

No, the hardware allows for unlimited multi-touch, but no software keyboard is utilizing it.

You can download the Multi-Touch Keyboard APK file from the Motorola Droid X and install it using ASTRO or anything like that and it works fine, I'm using it now, it's close to the regular Android Keyboard I wanted.

How did you activated? I can't seem to get it active after installation.
Menu -> Settings -> Language and Keyboards -> Check on Multi Touch Keyboard
then go to any text field, press and hold. a pop up message will come up. select input method and choose multi touch keyboard
download link to apk pls?

I started with an HTC Aria and got used to the keyboard, which is different than the stock Android keyboard found on the A101. I have tried the gimpsta themer site that creates an apk, customized keyboard. I have successfully installed the apk, but it isn't working. All I get is force closes when I try to select it.
Has anyone had any luck installing this keyboard or any other that has the same look and layout of the HTC keyboard?
I tried the one from the HTC Incredible but no luck, they have some HTC specific libraries that would need to be ported over. I am not that handy yet!
Hey guys,
yesterday i got my phone well, i used HTC_IME keyboard for nearly two years on my X10 before and i wanted to use it again...i installed it and there was a problem. i took the high resolution-keyboard, but it still is too small for the phones resolution, so the keyboard is very small in the left corner
does anyone have an idea, how to solve the problem?
or are there any information about something like HTC_IME_HD ?
Maybe try the keyboard for the Rezound. Since it too has a 720p screen it may work for you.
hm, i can't find a download-possibility...wether on xda, nor on google...do you know sth?
You can buy Smart Keyboard Pro on the Market. With the right settings itcan mimic the HTC IME perfectly, has a skin with HTC look and can do evem more with a wide variety of settings. I use to miss HTC IME when I switched to the Nexus One 2 years ago, but this keyboard hasn't left me since...

The style doesn't really care, i need a T9-Board with German-Dictionary and...T9^^. Push one button for one letter
*edit* bought it, happy with it thanks
Thumb Keyboard, Smart Keyboard, and SwiftKey X all support the higher resolutions.
I use Thumb Keyboard on my Asus Transformer. I understand the HTC_IME is unique. Perhaps try the Rezound forums and see if anyone will post it.

That was my keyboard of choice, up until the ICS keyboard. Its more accurate than ever, keeps up with my keystrokes and had the best auto correct/ word prediction

I've been using it since HTC_IME got buggy on my SGS2. Well worth the money.
I bought Smart KB Pro and still using HTC-IME (not on Nexus) because its better in prediction. You cant just use KB from another Sense device, it needs to be ported
Hi does anybody know if there is a good t9 keyboard available from the market and not super keyboard pro which i think is crap i just dont like the keyboard on the nexus its not a patch on the HTC sensation I had previously. I have tried super keyboard pro etc and I hate it. I dont like the word prompts at the top of the page etc and its slow and also terrible when you turn t9 off its fiddly to use. I have tried everything....
Swiftkey X is my favourite keyboard, but there are plenty of options.
T9? or just any Keyboard? Swype Beta is available for the GN now, so you could try that one out.
I use Even Better NumberPad Keyboard or Perfect Keyboard. Both give me a nice t9 experience. I'm not exactly a qwerty guy

I'm currently using CM10 JB rom on my HTC One X and really miss the "swype" like feature of the original HTC keyboard ie. the "trace" option. Does anyone know if this HTC trace keyboard is available for download anywhere?
I don't want to use "swype beta" because of the built in nonsense (data collection etc) and plus I really liked the HTC one when I was still using stock rom.
