I've been using Swiftkey 3 for a while, and it's always been slow but I could live with that, but now it bothers me.
The problem is: when I type I and I already finished a word I still have to wait for the "animation" or what to catch up with me.
I've Googled it up and there are other people with this problem, but with no solution.
Do you know how could I fix this, or recommend a new keyboard (which has a good prediction system)?

Hey guys...
Just heard about S Voice. It sounds even better than siri. So I gave it a try on our device with CM9 alpha2.
So here it is:
The major function is OK, concerning listening and giving answers. Mount Everest's height can be found, weather OK, and even silly questions.
But the problem is here...
First, it is not quite responsive. Sometimes the button does not respond. However it can be worked around by re-launching it.
Second, the integration with local data does not work. Whenever I tell it to create a new task and/or calendar event, it crashes.
Third, it is not customizable. When you try to change the wake up phrase, it crashes. Worse still, you have to clear the data of the app to revive it.
Na.
Well, just asking if any developer is interested in making it work in our device?

Can you do it on stock rom with only root?
OMG sara the android siri will be sad because xda got s voice leaked xD .. ANYWAY i gonna try this soon my phone not rooted me so scared
unfortunately only compatible with ICS
damn it !! i really wish that it could work with gingerbread ... i cant use CM9 yet because the camera issue -.-
and camera is important for my job
is there anyway to trick the app to make it think that im using ICS ?
as stated... which is your favorite and why? what did you not like about the other two (if you've tried them)? I've only been on AOKP and curious if I should try out one or both of the others (I probably will anyway, lol). I've had a little issue w/ my keyboard lagging slightly when typing lately... thinking a switchup would fix it. Thanks for input...

Eclipse
That is all
Lol
not one of those choices, but i love the speed and stability of eclipse
Never noticed any keyboard lag
Don't know if anyone ever tried this out mentioned it before But I'm sure it's been attempted,
Clear cache on keyboard, clearing data for it will most likely wipe your dictionary too so just try a cache wipe on it,
Wiping the app data used to fix the keyboard issues on the droid x2, not sure how it will work on this device. Good luck!

hehe, thanks for pointing me in the right direction... i googled it several different ways but didn't think of using those key words =) i do appreciate it!
I only just recently got my Note II and it has got ARHD on it, which I installed because it's a rom based on samsung software with no comptability issues and great battery life.
I also have a Galaxy Nexus and I noticed a few "problems" the Note 2 has and the older Nexus doesn't:
the browser on the Note 2 looks okay but the pointer precision is just very bad. To give an example: if you swipe your finger up or down vertically for a few centimeters, and then you start sliding diagonally (without having lifted off your finger off the screen in the meanwhile), it will only continue to keep scrolling vertically, it won't "follow" your left or right (or diagonal) movement. When you lift off your finger from the screen, retouch it and then scroll diagonal right away it will follow the movement. I find this very annoying, it prevents me of having a smooth browsing experience. My older Nexus with stock android 4.2.2 and stock browser is smooth as butter and follows my swiping movements 1 to 1..
I tested Dolphin browser, Maxthon.. all still bad pointer precision.. Chrome seems to be the least bad of all the browsers, but then on the other hand I find it very choppy.
PS. I already tried an AOSP/CM rom (Sentinel ROM), and there the browser was smooth, yet, non-touchwiz roms are not bugfree and the battery life is nowhere as good as with a samsung based rom.. And especially that last factor is really important to me. (Unless anyone can advise me a bugfree AOSP rom with batterylife that is as good as a samsung based rom).
SOLVED, SOLUTION IN POST #15
Then something else that annoys me quite a bit: when the screen is off and I press the wakebutton, it takes like 1 to 2 seconds until it actually wakes.. I've read I'm not the only one with this problem but I find it kind of unacceptable for a quad core phone with 2GB of ram.. Same problem when you are in an application and you press the homebutton to go to the homescreen, it sometimes takes like a second or more too.. Once again, stuff like that on my simple dual core nexus with half the amount of ram doesn't happen.
UNDERLINED PART SOLVED, SOLUTION IN POST #3 (thanks Kremata)
Then the good stuff has to be said too: homescreen-scrolling is insanely smooth, watching videos is awesome, the camera is great (so is the samsung camera app) and not to forget, the battery life is a revelation to me, I get through the day easily with hardcore use of the phone (that cannot be said of my old Nexus..).
I really like the Note II, but these few problems really crash the party for me.. Also I never thought I'd say it as a Nexus-fan but I generally find Touchwiz pretty cool and suiting on the Note 2.. So I'd prefer to stay on a samsung based rom like ARHD if possible.
Hope there's some experts here who can give me advise on how to handle these little problems.
For the record, I managed installing the AOSP browser, and the bug is still there. So it must be rom/kernel related, not app-related..
The HOME button problem is not a bug. It is because you have set your S-voice to open by double pressing the Home button. So the lag comes from TW waiting for a second press before doing anything.
Just uncheck "Open via the Home Key" in S-voice setting.
For the browser thing I don't know. I never felt it was a problem for me.

One problem solved already, thanks for that!
I placed a video of the pointing precision problem on youtube. Btw I checked if the touchscreen is ok by using "show touches", and it followed my touches 100% perfectly, so it's not the phone, it's definitely some software problem..
This is the video
Could anyone with a samsung-based rom try to reproduce the above problem and see if it happens or not ? If not, could you tell me what rom + kernel you are using, would be much appreciated..
I repeat that when I tried an AOSP rom on my Note II, this issue did not happen.
I'm on DLL4 and before this was on 4.1.1 and do not have this issue.

Could you give me more information on DLL4 ? Maybe a link to such rom, etc. How is your battery life ?
PS. I have the international (european) version.

I have the exact same thing on my phone (ARHDv18). A work around is to start with a diagonal instead of a vertical line then it works fine

Thanks, I'll sleep a bit better now tonight
Yes I know.. but it's very annoying.. Since years I used stock android/AOSP, now I went to the dark side P) to use a TW device, so this "problem" kind of annoys me.. I wonder if one of our awesome developers would be able to make a samsung based TW rom with an AOSP-like smooth browsing experience..

I just realized this problem. I'm using Crash ROM, and sometimes it will happen like in the video, but sometimes it work perfectly.
So weird that I seem to be the first one remarking this problem as imo it's quite annoying, and I'm definitely not alone here.

You don't forget the good stuff of stock android! But the samsung rom has some pretty cool features too..
HOORAY.
With "Chrome Beta" the swiping "bug" is not present! /me happy
Now my Note 2 is "perfect"
Is it just me or does everyone else agree that the stock keyboard is unusable. Simple texts or emails take 5 times longer then just using the android keyboard. Its horrible. Horrible prediction and does actions I never even ask it to do. Haven't even got to the lag!!! I know there is a mod to fix the lag but I don't think it does much. Anyone else dealing with this?? Anything I can do?
I can't say I agree. The keyboard on the LG G3 has to be one of the best I have ever used. Very close to the one on the iPhone in terms of responsivenss, pretty much no lag and the predictions are quite good.
Have you tried the advanced settings for the keyboard?
The only issue I have with it is not inserting spaces as I'm swiping.
Tbh i love it. Its really great.
What lag are you talking about thats because of the LG keyboard?
For me the keyboard is very fast and the prediction is perfect. It looks good aswell and is very customizable.
It's just you the stock key board is one of the first I have not had or wanted to change soon at I turned the phone on
First stock keyboard that hasn't made me switch to swiftkey... Yet anyway
Glad I noticed this post. I had automatically installed swiftkey and turned it off for a while to see if I liked the LG keyboard. It seams very responsive and easy to use. I love the way you can increase the size of the keyboard.
Yeah the keyboard is pretty bad.
I used it for 1 month straight and was too tired of its errors. I didn't see any lag with it but things like swiping to "is" and getting "it's" drove me nuts and wasted a ton of time correcting. Far too many of these types of errors.
Back to Swype and it works perfect as always.
I like it at first but now reverted back to the Google Keyboard. I find the predictive not that good, say you wanted totype "Ship" it would automatically correct it to "Shop". Any word typed that is not in the dictionary it replaces with one that is, its trying to be too clever.
But the biggest problem is I get this bug where I can only type numbers.
There are good things about this keyboard, numbers shown on top row and excellent spacing of keys.

I'm having this same problem. There has got to be a fix for it, I've tried everything I can think of.
Ok, so switch to another keyboard. Seriously, these types of threads are out of control here. Are we getting all the rejects from the rest of XDA? Are all the smart folks buying other phones? What is going on here.
That was a little harsh. Last I checked this was a discussion board.

You know, you can easily ignore threads with titles that don't interest you instead of complaining... This is a thread about a feature on the phone that this forum is for - it is perfectly on topic.
I agree with the OP its one of the worst I've used because of how tiny the buttons are, I just switched to stock Google and am typing much faster because of it.
Just use Swiftkey, it's free !

No i didnt although opening it again after reading your post and i have noticed that the keyboard updated to a more modern ios type look which is nicer than the bubbly one it shipped with.
Install the Google keyboard, it's fantastic.
Well, kinda agree on this...i stopped using it too, try the google L keyboard... I found it easier to type and use as well. Is available on xda, just search for L keyboard... Comes as apk, can be aplied on non rooted device

Hello everyone!
I made a stupid mistake of uninstalling my GO Keyboard app before disabling the input method. So I install the Google Keyboard app. But when I get to the point where I need to change the input method to Google Keyboard, the phone hard reboots, saying XPERIA then the boot animation. I tried everything but no luck.
Any help appreciated,

Yup, fully. I looked for an app like com.android.input to clear cache for, but I didn't find anything.
Typed from the terrible stock keyboard which changes to Chinese every few mins.

Lol XD, what kind of ROM do you run? Stock or CM based?
Stock D: My phone was £110 so I don't want any risks of a brick.
Any help? D:
Well thanks for the 'help' guys Seriously though you post on this forum no one replies for a day or so and then it is moved down to the bottom of the forum. And this reply thing is buggy as hell thanks for wasting my time and if Sony ever finds me, well screw you, you only take the popular. devices and update them, and leave the other devices to rot in bugs. Thank f***ing you, XDA, it took me 25 minutes to re type this because of your terrible website on mobile, and I can't change my profile picture from a terrible minecraft thingy to something proffessional. And before you people jump in and judge me as a 9 year old minecraft player, I am only pissed off.
Don't rage and factory reset.
