Hello, i just flashed several roms in my Ace II because of the gesture keyboard not working.
I have made my searches, and found zero answer related to this, it seems no one is using gesture keyboard....
Now, on such small screen, having the gesture hability for writing saves a lot of time for me, and i think that anyone who would give it a try will keep it as primary way of writing.
The only rom in wich is working fine is in Slimrom 8.1 but i have found other complains for this one that are more important than the keyboard at the moment.
Is there any workaround?

Gesture keyboard comes with android 4.2.2 or try search play store for 'Google keyboard'

I've been using it on the stock 4.1.2 ROM in this same phone and in 4.0.4 on Optimus 2x.
At store, there's no available google keyboard, already made the search.
BTW:
PAC rom has not working gesture keyboard, and is 4.2.2.
TeamCanjica, also is 4.2.2 and it has it not working either.
Rootbox, also is 4.2.2 and is not working.
On the contrary, SlimRom is 4.2.2 and it has it working.
I'm no expert but shouldn't this be in the "general" section? o.0
Google Keyboard (same as AOSP from 4.2.2) has gesture typing, SwiftKey has gesture typing and Swype has gesture typing. If one of those doesn't work you might wanna contact the app support directly. All I know is Google Keyboard and SwiftKey work perfect on stock and Cyanogenmod.
Google Keyboard is available for the Ace II. In fact I think it's compatible with ALL devices so I don't know why you're not finding it. I'd be certain it's likely to be something on your end.

It seems to be working, but only makes the trace and nothing is written.
Swiftkey and swype have their own drawbacks, both are really c..p finding and predicting words in anything than english, and i need it working fine in Spanish, there google keyboard is unbeatable.
Also, those both apps are paid, google is not only free, IT WORKS.

Nothing wrong in MY end, i've made the search inside the phone and directly with my computer browsing/searching play store, and it does not appear AT ALL.
I also checked some days ago with the Optimus 2x because i dislike the keyboard that came with a custom rom, nothing appeared... And also, both phones use different google account. (just in case)
So.. It seems that the keyboard may be been removed or is only available for older versions wich need update.
EDIT: Sorry... Sometimes you need to kill someone... I'll kill google...
Well, Google keyboard will NEVER appear for spanish... "Teclado de Google" does...
Really sorry... sometimes takes me some time stop thinking on english.
Anyway, it says is not compatible with ANY of my devices.... : wallbash:
Well it's definitely still there for me whatever ROM I'm using so i don't know what to tell you

Figured it out: voice search is not available in the Canadian market....I just googled the apk

I tried HTC_IME (not sure whether it was this same one) earlier, and I don't really get the charm. Is it just the languages supported? It's not multi-touch I believe and I missed a lot of letter due to that, especially space. I am currently using the Droid X Multi-touch and it's faster than everything else (and I've tried almost all). The thing is that I can type fast enough on this not to need prediction, I only use that for spelling correctione etc.
Been using this for awhile to skin my own HTC IME, first on my Milestone, then on my Galaxy.
i love you guys :-D.thx a lot for this!

anyone know how to enable the on screen dpad, or is there one even available on the HTC keyboard?
Can anyone tell me how to remove this completely? I uninstalled from applications, but does that remove Clicker.apk too? I can't find it in /system/app either
can't install
i can install the click apk but not the htc ime apk, what program you guys use to install, it tells me through Astra that file can't be read as an apk.

[Q] The Bogmonster - I have a virtual keyboard working in ICS Beta 3r3.1 & Beta 4r1
Hi all,
First post so excuse the NooBness!
Ok I've just installed the [BETA 3r3.1]Desire S ICS AOSP PORT|WORKING! rom on my DZ- having great fun playing with it - amazed so much of it actually works so soon.
My question is this, from what I can see (don't crucify me if I've missed a post somewhere) everyone is complaining about the lack of the virtual touch keyboard for number entry etc?
Well I have one working! (in portrait mode only at the minute) am I the only one?
Keep up the great work devs!
I've been following it pretty close and haven't seen anyone that has a working v-keyboard. What steps did you take? Install certain applications? Flash a certain zip/kernel?
I smell a troll.

How did you do it?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I read on another post that someone had tried to install the ROM as an upgrade from a CM7 build so I also gave it a try (it sort of works for most apps but breaks others) but I found that it had kept my HTC_IME modded keyboard already installed on my CM7 nightly and that in portrait mode the keyboard did actually work!
I decided to see if it would work on a full wipe install also so I did a superwipe G2+ and then install the apk's for ES file explorer and then my HTC_IME keyboard.
Enabling the keyboard in the normal way, then on the first couple of tries you have to select the keyboard from the notification area manually but after that it works ok.
The spell checking marks every work as wrong but i don't normally use that anyway.
but it works.
A few more screenshots
A few more screenshots of the HTC_IME keyboard working.
Still only portrait (but with the phys keybrd available it's not an issue) but fully usable - voice input works fine too.
If anybody else want to try it I've attached the keyboard apk as well.
Thanks

I did try Swiftkey X as well as the HTC_IME but Swiftkey seemed to have problems popping up, and I prefer the HTC one myself anyway
OdieSam reports he's now fixed the built-in soft keyboard for the next Beta.
I'll probably stick with the HTC as it's my standard one though.
All that's needed are a fixed camera, reliable Wifi and SD USB mounting and it's pretty much a workable ROM
Has anyone got handcent working reliably on it yet though?
Does Anybody know how to install the default Arc keyboard on CM7.2?
I didnt quite like it and want the Swype feature..... Also SlideIT and other keyboards are not so good.
Please tell me a way.
I have the textinput.apk file but it dosent get installed, nor does it work when i copy it to \system\app folder.
Also the original contacts aswell.
Thanks
There's another thread asking this and the answer was no. You should have searched.

I believe that is is possible. you also need the .jar files, as well as the lib files. i had a zip to make it work on the x10. i'll see if i can find it.
Pvy.
default
the default keyboard in arc s would be international keyboard.. from SE
its apk file is there in system/app.
@Pvy - Thanks Mate!
@Samson - The ONLY other thread I could find was skinning the default keyboard to black.. Nothing Else
I'm asking for SE Keyboard on CM7.2
@Arcman - I'm on Arc, Not Arc S
Anyway, I know about the file but its not either getting installed not getting detected if i copy paste it.
Also Even If i replace the current apk with this and changing permissions, still nothing happens
,..
don"t worry..
there are so many keyboards available in android market which are far better than
international keyboard
SlideIT, Smart Keyboard, Go Keyboard
Tried 3, Didnt quite work out
So no way to do that?
and Any better alternative their in which i can swype aswell?
Yes, the Swype keyboard might be good

1 - The lowermost keys dont work
I mean the space bar and enter..... Well, dey only work when you touch the upper part of them!
Both in Landscape and Potrait mode!
2 - I want the Swiping Feature!
3 - That shortcut key to graphical smileys next to the symbols key!
4 - Well, when I type in a word, and I press enter, it does not go to the next line, in fact its like it 'accepts' the input. And I have to press the return key again.
And as i like my typings to go fast and efficient, It dosent go that ways. :|
If you can find a work around to all these in CM7.2, I'll Practically Worship you!!!
OR, Get the original stock Arc Keyboard back!
I want it too

Strange, on my phone, after installer a couple of kitkat apps (google services, hangout, camera, keep, search, clock) there is no more "contacts" nor "phone calls" (the dialler) to be seen in my apps panel. Can't call anybody anymore :/
and hangout is always slow as hell to launch and work with (tends to kind of "freeze" on an empty screen page while loading / waiting for god knows what). Was used to this lagggggy UI with hangout, but it can't be so sluggish for SMS.

Try greenify from the play store. Your phone might be running out of memory or over loading the CPU. I don't have a single problem. The hangout app actually works faster than the SMS app for me!
Really weird that the phone and contacts apps disappeared though. Something went wrong somewhere. If you don't want to wipe then you can probably dirty flash your ROM to get them back.

I've gotten all the Kitkat apps on my phone and I have no problems at all. I'm glad to see they finally updated their ugly email app. And the camera rotates a lot faster than before. Google Now is awesome. I had mixed feelings about the new launcher at first but its growing on me. The keyboard seems more responsive too. Also, the hangouts app isnt all that laggy for me. It does take a second to load everything when forst opened but after that, its fine. SMS works great with it in my case. Overall, they are great updates. I can't wait to try out the Kitkat OS.

This is just a thought. But when I installed most of these, I was installing them over system apps or I was moving them to system/app to make them system apps. Maybe that makes a difference.
Anyone using the new Google Keyboard? I found out you can type a whole sentence now with the swipe guesture without raising your finger. The space bar is recognized as a swipe input now. I think the developer(s) of the Swype keyboard did that not that long ago but now its in the stock keyboard. Just thought I'd share.
When you were running on jelly bean, did you had any problems receiving or sending any MMS on hangouts?

Usually when people say Standard Keyboard in regards to Android they mean the Google Keyboard. That's probably why Andy suggested it and also because the google keyboard is fantastic. I haven't done it myself but have you just tried searching "T9 keyboard" in Play Store? Throw that in google search too and see what pops up. If you search in google I'd throw .apk in there at the end of your search query to see if anyone has ever posted that .apk ever. I'm at work or I'd attempt a search and help you out but I can't atm. Try those 2 suggestions and see what you find. Good luck :fingers-crossed:
Also, what phone are you using? I've never seen that on my One.
