Hello
Just got the phone. How can you remove them annoying arrows at the bottom of the keyboard?

They're useful though.
Edit - perhaps you can't remove them, I thought you could.
You should use Swiftkey X anyway

It only appears on the keyboards when texting, so not too bad

Alright so i have been looking for a way to rearrange the buttons the the stock keyboard for the EVO. I am running 2.2 not rooted, but will consider if I am able to rearrange the key. I am always hitting the DAMN . for a space. I have tried swype which isn't a bad keyboard but not for me. Is there a way to rearrange the keys or perhaps get rid of the arrows. Any help is appreciated but trolling however is not...
Thanks in advance
I used to use the Droid X keyboard before Froyo and now run w/ Smart Keyboard paid edition, awesome keyboard IMO, gets rid of the arrows at the bottom, stupid voice button isn't right there next to the space bar anymore, much better keyboard. I think they have a free edition you can check out, otherwise it's like $2.50
There's a version of the stock keyboard w/o the arrows. I can't remember which version it is though. I wanna say mod v27 but I'm not sure. I'll see if I still have it in my computer.

No prob. Just had the app saved to my computer. Not sure how to modify the keyboard. I wouldnt mind being able to move a few things around though.
I want to add shortcuts like I did with my Palm Pre. I want to type 'omw' and have it corrected to 'on my way'
Is there an option I am overlooking in the settings?
You can add words or phrases in settings-language and input-personal dictionary. Good luck.
That isn't what I'm looking for...
For example, I want to physically type 'omw' and when I hit the spacebar, I'd like it be "corrected" to 'on my way'

You'd have to find a keyboard that does that then. SwiftKey x (which I'm using) does not support it.

I have the full version of swiftkey and it does exactly that!? You can actually tell it to do it in settings.
Ah, so no way to accomplish this with the stock keyboard? Bummer

Smart Keyboard also offers Auto-text function..which is what you're looking for. I too wish the stock keyboard allowed this, and i'm not sure why Android has yet to implement it in it's stock keyboards.
I haven't used Smart Keyboard yet since moving to ICS, but it's a great KB. You can add swipe functions, such as swipe to delete word, swipe to bring up a number keypad etc.
I'm on the ViperX rom and I was wondering if it was possible to remove the keyboard arrows, I kind of like the Sense keyboard but those arrows taking up space are really annoying, anyone know anything about this?
I don't think so,i'm on stock ROM and i didn't find any option like that.You can use Swiftey keyboard if you like,i am using it and it's great,and you can add or remove the arrow keys if you like.
I second that, swiftkey keyboard is by far the best keyboard on the market; especially if you use mulitple languages as its very easy to download the languages (literally one click and youre all set).
With viperx Rom there is an option of hiding arrows. Look in buttons tab under venom tweaks

I was wondering, what are your guys favorite keyboards?
I really like the Sense keyboard, but the arrows are quite annoying, so the best for me would be the stock ICS keyboard, as it is pretty simple and very responsive and snappy.
I don't use any of that auto-correct crap either, what other keyboards can you guys suggest me? I've tried SmartKeyboard but I didn't really like the look of all their themes.
SwiftKey 3, nothing else gets even close to it.
Install that and forget about the others, believe me

Like I said, I don't use auto-correction, and I didn't find a way to disable it on SwiftKey at all.
Ok, thanks SwiftKey isn't the right for you because it's all about auto correct and word predictions.

I like the stock one and prefer to use it but if I had to change keyboards ( happened for some reason before ) I generally use Go Keyboard
Smart keyboard pro is quite good imo

True that!
Swiftkey 3 is the best keyboard I've used so far. Damn thing somehow gets inside your mind and ends up typing whole sentences for you :good:
Swype, unfiortunately its not awailable in the play store, but yiou can get it from here

Sorry for the old thread bump. Auto correct can be disabled (on the current version 3 i think) by going to advanced and selecting what space does. Change it to "always inserts space".
Also you can change your user profile to precision.
I use sense keyboard, and swiftkey 3. They are the best...for my fingers

If you are Running a deodexed ROM, you can use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1612558
I installed it recently (on InsertCoin 9.6.2) and it works wonderfully!
Arabic Sense Keyboard
would you please help me find Arabic Sense Keyboard the official one (deodexed) that works with ARHD??
thanks in advance...
I use Swiftkey but it's a PITA that it doesn't allow you to set the height of the keyboard by numerical or slider values as I use a custom DPI.
A.I. Keyboard has a great implementation of this, you can slide the keyboard to any height you want.
I think at the moment though Swiftkey still beats it in auto correction accuracy, but I keep my eye on it each update.
I used almost every keyboard, but honestly I still think the stock Android keyboard is the best (Especially when I ran on Jelly Bean), and I hate the Sense keyboard, I don't know why.
go keyboard ! only beacuse the great themes
In Go Keyboard, is there a way to completely disable auto correct and hide the suggestions and language selection bar over the keyboard?
I love the themes for Go Keyboard but I also like my keyboard to be compact and since I don't use auto correct, I don't like to have any thing over my keyboard.
Last time I tried it, there was no way to remove that bar from the top of the keyboard. Is it there now?
Stock Jellybean Keyboard is my favorite, it's really fast.
Hey! If you like the Sense keyboard but without the arrows theres a theme you can install on top (HTC_IME) and you can choose your own colours too!
Right now im using bai du keyboard which actually is quite good theres a small row on top with numbers and you can do the swipe up and down for the alternative characters.

It says XT9. It is telling you your keyboard is in T9 predictive text mode
ProBAM Power
That is no bug...
That is supposed to be that way and it does not miss-align the keyboard.
That is the exactly as it is on EVERY HTC phone and it should be that way...
If you look at your PC's keyboard you'll see that the a is slightly offset relative to the q...

i see, thanks for the info, any way to turn that thing off? I was in keyboard settings, nothing about t9 found :/
You would have to turn off all references to prediction in the keyboard settings. Or just install another keyboard from the play store

I'd download either:
SwiftKey - Best for rapid typing with great auto correct
Swype Keyboard - Great for those who enjoy using the swype/flow features in Android (not having to lift finger off to type)
Kii Keyboard (Has multipurpose keys and has a number pad which I liked) above the keyboard [BEST FOR TABLETS]
They are my 3 favorite, in that order.
Bro chill... My keyboard does to... It says ViperX+ cuz that's the Rom I'm running but its nothing
