Change the keyboard typing sound - HTC 10 Questions & Answers

Does anyone know how to change the keyboard typing sound? I use GBoard instead of the default TouchPal keyboard, but the sound effect from typing is the same as TouchPal - it resembles the sound of a typewriter. I don't know about you guys, but its horrific to me. My preference would be to change it to something that sounds similar to the iPhone or Samsung Galaxy.
I have found that using another third party keyboard, such as Cheetah Keyboard, will have a different sound, but I really like GBoard and want to only change the sound effect for typing.

Hi
I'd like to change my default keyboard to fingerKeyboard. after each reset it's really boring to change the keyboard with regard to it's slow menu.

Keyboard comparisons

Hi!
I feel the stock Samsung keyboard has potential but the word correction just seems meh (could be due to danish dictionary).
I'd like to see a comparison of the keyboards and what people feel about each one.
Swiftkey
Samsung keyboard (multi touch)
Swype (drawing type keyboard)
HTC_IME (the xda one with online kitchen)
Handcent
Droid X (multi touch)
Currently i feel the HTC_IME is best for me atleast, since it supports danish and it has some added features (XDA). It's slower than the Samsung Keyboard though, probably the multi touch making Samsung faster. I'd like to try Swype or SwiftKey, but danish support seems a while off. Handcent i haven't tried, but as far as i remember it looks alot like the HTC_IME one?
If none of them improves soon, i guess i'll try to code one myself. Swiftkey prediction with multi touch would be pretty awesome
I love the vlingo keyboard, it pwns all the others I've tried.
text using profile: mails/notes/todos/sms, typing rather fast, languages: german & english
HTC_IME, Handcent (is that built into the app?), Vlingo - haven't tried those
Swype
- unique feature: swipe to type
- my favourite; i nearly can type as fast as i can on a real keyboard, which is quite fast ​
Samsung keyboard (multi touch)
- unique feature: none that i know of
- nice, seems to be a lookalike from the iphone keyboard; works good, just 2 points at once though
- if i want to use multitouch typing while wanting to type as fast as i can i always switch over to this one:​
Droid X (multi touch)
- unique feature: multitouch with more than 2 points
- IMHO best multi touch keyboard out there​
Swiftkey
- unique feature: text prediction
- useful: using several languages simultaneously (HUGE benefit for me! TouchPal does this as well)
- just installed it while it's in beta, can't say much about it
- using it for just a couple of minutes doesn't reveal much about the real benefit of this keyboard (text prediction)
- looks amazing, i'll definitely use this regularly to see where it goes!​
ThickButtons
- unique feature: keyboard-buttons get enlarged when being predicted by the dictionary as possibly the next letter in the current word
- tried this for a couple of text messages, need more time for a thorough test
- runs stable but a bit slow​
TouchPal
- seems to be a very good chinese input keyboard, although i'm far from able to confirm that
- useful: using several languages simultaneously (like Swiftkey)
- just testing this for a couple of minutes, seems to be very good!​
my wishes :
Swype should implement multi touch support & easy language switch while simultaneously using he built in keyboard - then it's the only keyboard i'll ever need
Swiftkey should come out of beta as soon as it's ready and be as cheap as possible
UPDATE
added Swiftkey & TouchPal

Er really? It's identical to the default Android keyboard, doesn't support multi-touch.
So far, I think the HTC keyboard would rock with multi-touch, but without it it just cannot keep up with fast typing, rendering it useless!
Advantages of default Samsung Keyboard:
- Multi-touch
- Decent text prediction
- Arrow keys appear when you long-press on symbols (big plus)
Disadvantages:
- You can't capitalise random letters in a word!!! (You can't write something like McDonald's for example, because pressing shift will either capitalise ALL letters in the word or the first letter only. This is also painful when you have to type in a username for some app but the text field has prediction enabled.)
- The numbers/symbols layout is dreadful! Seriously, why is the colon on the 2nd page? And why does the last used page open instead of the first one when you press symbols?
Advantages of Droid X keyboard:
- Better multi-touch than Samsung (shift + many keys is possible)
- Much better symbols layout
Disadvantages:
-Auto-capitalisation doesn't work
- No control of the dictionary! And the dictionary has random incorrect words in it like ob and od and im which get substituted when you make a typing mistake.
I'm using the Droid X keyboard right now but desperately looking for something with better dictionary control
Do any of these keyboards have the ability for speech-to-text like the nexus one? I don't see the speaker icon on the samsung keyboards.

Vlingo does and I can type fast on it without worrying about it missing my letters and the auto correction is good on it.

I don't care about multi touch just about typing fast and accurately.
I like the standard Android keyboard, if only it had multi-touch.
The Samsung keyboard is capable for multi touch? Even if it does the multi touch implementation doesn't seems to her close to the one of Droid X, at least I can't feel it. Also the ptedicion and correction doesn't works well. I'm using an IME called CEDIME which I need the Chinese input, the English keyboard included us even better than the Samsung one.
The Droid X multi touch keyboard works well but the prediction will need some improvement, although by using it more you can add more words to it's dictionary.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Using Swiftkey Beta here, and other than some curious auto-complete choices, it's brilliant, rather large though...
I love SWYPE, it is SOOO accurate with English... Though I use Vietnamese quiet often to text my Vietnamese friend and can't seem to find Vietname SWYPE Dictionary ... So i'm teaching SWYPE, but its learning fast...
So overall, I love it!

Swype / Android keyboard

Is there an app to force the use of a certain IME for a given application?
For example I use Swype as my default keyboard, but it is quite annoying to use in the terminal or with ConnectBot.
Is there a way to force the default Android IME to programs like these?
As long as i know there is no way to do this :/
I use swype as my default keyboard too, but when it comes to typing emails, passwords, numbers, terminals, it sucks
/Dev
I think this might be done with Tasks... don't know for sure though.

chinese input on android

how to get chinese input in android? I am new to android.
I just downloaded google input IME from market place and installed, it is enabled in settings(languages), but keyboard did not change in messages and browser input. why?
any other apps will work?
The default way to change input method has been changed in ICS. Instead of long pressing at any text entry field, In ICS you will see a small keyboard icon in the left corner from the status bar when the keyboard shows up, then you can pull the status bar down and change the input method from there.
Google Pinyin IME is average. Some better options are sogou input and touchpal input. Sogou does not support ICS at this moment. But touchpal V5 works flawlessly.
I actually set default keybord to google pinyin, but then I cannot enable default english keyboard. what if I want to try other chinese keyboard? is there a way to enable multiple keyboard?
What if I want stock ICS keyboard to have Chinese? Any way I can do that?
I really like the stock keyboard and I don't want to use third party keyboard if at all possible
Also looking for this option....Surely there must be a way to switch to hand written chinese input via the stock ICS keyboard right ??? I realise that 3rd party apps are available but they are all terrible IMHO. Looking for something similar to how iPhone handles Chinese input....any ideas / suggestions ?
i'm using penpower, it not made for ics, as the writing pad does not fit the whole bottom half of the screen, but it works.
updated, just installed the ics version.
google voice input is the best. i use HK traditional.

touchpal is good too. they got chinese pack and handwriting pack.
go to System Setting > Language & keyboard > System Language. Then, scroll down and check PinYin option. You can choose handwriting too.
Later, when you're at a text box you will can toggle between English and Chinese using a "EN" key at left side of your spacebar.

Chinese Input on Kindle Fire
Anybody know which Chinese IME works for Kindle Fire. I root it successfully. Try to install Google PinYin, but it say not compatible with your device. The download button even not available.
Thanks

(R) keyboard with bb functionality

I've was talking to a friend of mines about keyboards without emojis and we remembered how BlackBerry's keyboard was awesome. We could make shortcuts for words and phrases. Emojis wasn't an issue. I was just wondered of anyone seen or know of a keyboard like that. I'm not sophisticated in making apps.
If you're reading this I'm in the beta
Not 100% certain this will do exactly what you want, but I've used it before and it was very customizable.
