Most of time, amazon's keyboard won't close itself using 'back' button, I have to switch to home and back app again, just for close it.
I would like to try other keyboard from Google Play Store.
However, we don't have any way to switch it in options or settings.
I have installed Settings.apk, first menu show up, but it will close immediately once I click to enter 'keyboard and language'.
Anyone have successfully try it? or maybe we need sqlite to change some kind of settings.db file? thanks.
I have switched to Google keyboard using the settings.apk from the Bluetooth thread. You can even disable the on screen keyboard if you have a physical one.

Did you really successfully change it to Google keyboard, how did you do it? I'm also using settings.apk from the Bluetooth speak thread. But it will close and won't let me to change it. I would like to use Google keyboard as well. By the way, I'm using newest firmware with root and enable unknown source already.
Yes swapped it a while back.. I'm on older firmware.. I did however freeze the kftv launcher, I know it blocks certain android things like home key launcher not sure if it is blocking that as well.
I just opened settings, language and input.. There it showed buellerIME
It was greyed out and Google keyboard not checked.. Just checked it .. Clicked on it's settings and disabled popup keyboard.

Thanks, looks new firmware block this out. I could switch firmware back, however I do like new firmware, it works smoother than older one and has less issues so far.

I double checked for ya.. Its the kftv launcher that's stopping the change. If ya freeze it and make the change then unfreeze it it will stick. I recomend installing a launcher of some sort in just in case as a fallback while doing it...

I'm wondering if any of you guys experience this. I got my Galaxy s3 almost a month ago. Out of the box, when I double click the home key, it launches S voice. However, after Rooting (or sometime after that), I noticed that double clicking the home screen doesn't launch the S voice anymore. I toggled the setting under S-Voice menu to activate or deactivate double click launch but there's no difference -- still doesn't launch it. I did update my ROM to Kyan ROM hoping changing the ROM will make it work however, it still doesn't work. I even followed the instruction in replacing double click launch form S-Voice to Google NOW, unfortnately, still no luck.
Anybody knows how to check or fix this? Really wanted to use the double click function for Google NOW.

Check kyan's changelog and thread to see if it's been changed or if anyone else is having the same issue... you're running custom software so this needs to be addressed or answered in his ROM thread...
This should be in QnA
Try the home2 shortcut from the play store, works great with stock rooted ICS with Google Now

I use apex launcher and there is a setting in there for the home button to open any app (I chose the google search app). I have it set up so that first press goes to home page of the launcher and second press opens up google now.
I did use home2shortcut as well but still didn't work. I don't think its purely a kyan rom issue as I had this issue when j was still using stock.

This work around worked. Seems like a great replacement to the touchwiz... wondering what functionality does the touchwiz have that this doesn't have. Also, I'm still hoping I could get a way to make the double click work without APEX Launcher... but yeah, this is a good workaround!
Thanks!
Hi folks,
I am unable to switch keyboards. I am running the stock (rooted) Lollipop ROM. I have installed both Google keyboard and Swiftkey, the option to change keyboard only gives me the stock HTC keyboard in the settings. How do I force the switching of keyboards?
Bump.

After downloading Swiftkey, did you open the app? It should give you the option to and send you to the settings needed automatically to make it your default keyboard.
Swiftkey will walk you through the steps to enable it under settings then changing the default keyboard.

Yep, I did that and the option to change keyboard just lists the one (HTC) keyboard. It's almost like the fact the app is installed isn't registered by the system. See attached.

Settings, Language and keyboard, press current keyboard, then press choose keyboards and turn TouchPal off
If it's anything like the G4, you cannot disable the default keyboard.
I hope it isn't like the G4 in that aspect.

What's the other keyboard? I can turn TouchPal off on mine. Is the other keyboard enabled? If only one keyboard is enabled, you can't disable it.

Like jollywhitefoot, I can turn TouchPal off, as described. My other keyboard is Swiftkey, and interestingly, I had not been receiving any annoying prompts before I turned off TouchPal, which I only did just now.

That notification always comes up... because you always have Google Voice text as well... the only way I know how to eliminate the nag requires root

Touchpal is the default 10 keyboard?! ?

The other keyboard is "Multiling O Keyboard +Emojii". This is what i see in the screen where i activated this one, is there another way to open this menu than going through the Multiling O Keyboard app?
You need to download a keyboard to turn off touchpal. Change the default keyboard then go back then you can disable it iirc.

"TouchPal with HTC Sense".
I was sad to see the Sense keyboard go. IMO it has always been king of Android keyboards. Wished I could have put it on my tablets throughout the years.
That's what I've been wondering. Is there any way we could get the Sense keyboard back on the 10?
One of the things I love most about my M7..

As you can see im using Multiling O Keyboard, which is a keyborad available in the Playstore. What do you mean by "Change the default keyboard", im allready using my custom keyboard for writing.
You turn on the keyboard back and then make it default. Then go back into where you turn on and off the keyboard then you can turn off touchpal.

I dont get what you want to show me. My current situation in detail:
1. Factory fresh HTC 10
2. I download Multiling O Keyboard
3. I enable it in the screen with the sliders.
4. I set my used keyboard to MOK, so i will start typing on with it whenever i select a text field.
5. When i select a text field i get a notification in the notification bar that lets me choose the keyboard i want to use, Touchpal and MOK being the options.
6. I try to disable Touchpal in the slider menu (which i reach by a button in the notification), but its slider is greyed out. I can disable MOK without problems, though.
Try doing it through the settings and not the slider. I don't know why it doesn't work for you, but that worked from me. Based on what you typed that the only difference. I didn't use the notification shade route.

What do you mean "through the settings and not the slider"? Touchpal isnt in the apps menu, so i cant disable it there.
I didn't access the settings through the notification shade like you did.
I did everything from the settings itself.
I tapped
Settings
Language and keyboard
Current keyboard
Choose keyboard
Turned on keyboard
Back once
Changed current keyboard
Choose keyboard
Turned off keyboards
That worked for me and I don't get anything in the notification shade because I only have 1 active keyboard.

The very first reply to your original post explains what you need to do. Go into Settings, Language & Keyboard, Current Keyboard, Choose Keyboards and then turn off Touchpal. Don't access this menu via the slider notification as you have previously stated. If Touchpal is still greyed out, try to download another keyboard temporarily and see if you then get the option.
I have updated to Android 10. Today I tried using work profile to install Amazon Prime separate from main profile. But it seems I am unable to launch keyboard even for Google sign-in.
How to solve this?
Use on screen keyboard apps. Or floating keyboard.
Does A10 support different profiles?

The keyboards do not pop-up. I can see a cursor in the text field but no way to bring up the actual keyboard.

Try a wired keyboard maybe?
I cannot do that each time. Anyway I will see if I can use it to login to Google services and if that fixes issues.
Turned out there was no keyboard app at all in work profile!
Connected a physical USB keyboard, went to Play Store and installed one.
Now everything works as expected.

Hi to all!
Simply question: I want to remove the google assistant in the bottom corners of the homescreen, so i go settings>apps & notifications>default apps>assist & voice input>assist app and i select none and till here nothing to say. The problem is that everytime i reboot or switch off the phone, google assistant return as default app instead of "none" and it's a lot weird. There's a way to definitely remove the app? i don't want to uninstall or disable it, only remove from the corners. Maybe a fake app to put there instead of google. Thank you!

If you're rooted, just freeze it with titaniumbackup. If not rooted, use adb to disable.
Edit... N/m Check the launcher settings? I use nova launcher so never seen it.
Which os are you on?
when I follow that route (settings>apps & notifications>default apps>assist & voice input>assist app) I just have Google, no option for "none".
i use the MS launcher and I've never had the Google assistant on the home screen, switched back to the 1+ default and it wasn't there either
I'm on stock oos 10.0.12, I've taken a screen.. and I'm using Nova launcher

I've said I don't want to disable it because I think it could give problems

I'm not sure.. I have mine set to 'none' as I don't use the assistant. I haven't had any issues. In fact, it's been that way since I set up the phone some 9 months ago.
