better keyboard? - Touch HD General

hi all,
currently using the default qwety large keyboard, i often mis press... perhaps my fingers are too big...
is there any better version that will help me? thanks !!!

Hi
Try Fingerkeyboard2 its very good.
You can find it here.

Yes, +1 for fingerkeyboard v2.1
Excellent keyboard available in multiple languages in both portrait and landscape, plus its also editable so you can choose which characters/buttons you want to assign to certain keys etc

I'd say +1 for FingerKeyboard too. I have large chubby fingers and most of the time I can manage to write at a half decent speed. Obviously I'd prefer a faster alternative, but most of the keyboards out there bow down to this!

isnt fingerkeyboard worse for large fingers compared to querty?

I am using cootek touchpal, it needs sometime to get use to it but after it is nice and fast keyboard. if you wanted even bigger, then look for SPB full screen keyboard! I found it for long typing the best!!

To disable sound you can delete the .wav file in the directory were fingerkeyboard is saved i.e.
windows/programs/fingerkeyboard or storage card/programs/fingerkeyboard

Installing HTC Touch contact manager on Polaris

I've seen that HTC Touch's contact manager is far superior than one on Polaris (WM6 original) is there any chance to get it installed on Touch cruise?
http://it.youtube.com/watch?v=7JgaJXJBNbA&NR=1
Thanks
What the... It definitely looks better, especially the animations. The Polaris version uses the WM version with the random access (e.g. A to Z on the right of the screen) which isn't very handy in terms of NOT using the stylus.

Looks like PocketCM Contacts
You kind find it here http://www.pocketcm.com/contact.php
Also, pocketCM Keyboard is a must... works great and looks nice too
Plus, all of this is free (but you can, and will, donate to support this talented developper)
You mean that the one on the video is not an HTC application but pocketcm?
Does pocketcm has all the scrolling (IPhone like) features?
yes
At video are PocketCM i think ...
If you look at the notes (information) next to the movie, they also say that it's PocketM, so I think they mean PocketCM. If you look at the pocketcm website (as given by t.fabien), you see the same interface. So good luck installing pocketcm, since that's what you need

Has anyone gotten the chance to compare PocketCM with Vito's FunContact?
http://iwindowsmobile.com/contact-manager.html
i tested pocketcm and it works great ;-) It has a few color styles: black, white, blue, grey.
and it has also nice features like the sms history.

Installed both the PCM Keyboard and Contact on my HTC Touch Cruise and it works flawlessly with a lot of options. Install smoothly(used the CAB) and quite a lot better than what comes with the original ROM.

Trying both on my 750, I think FunContacts is alot more polished an application than PocketCM. I also found less issues with device locking with FunContacts. Since I am running a trial of FC, I get that little splash screen but otherwise it loads quite quickly. I only have a 100 or so contacts.

Why would you use a software keyboard? Love sliding out the hardware keyboard and writing with it
why slide to type some letters? sometimes it's fastest using the screen.
which version are you using 1.4 or 2.0 beta?

Thanks for the heads-up; very nice keyboard. Better that the Blackstone one, in my opinion.
I'm currently using SPB Keyboard 4.
This one is looking good though. Who can give me some more solid results. Any conflicts with X1 HW keyboard? What do you like about it, or don't? Opinions please!

because I hate waiting for my X1 to change from (fast) portrait mode to (omg wtf slow) landscape mode
Yeah that keyboard is quite nice, but I prefer nice and large Keypad style keys with T9 vs. a qwerty keyboard in landscape mode, so no good 4 me....
just downloaded it. so far, i'm liking it, but it lacks T9 input which would be nice. and another thing that really drags it down is that if you type really fast, it won't even register half of the key inputs, which is really bad

But the question is still valid.
I just downloaded 1.4 and so far it works nicely with the german skin, but needs a soft reset after installation.
But nevertheless maybe somebody could let us us know the differnece between 1.4 and 2.0?
dingolino
Man i would love to cook this into my rom but it doesn't seem like something that can be cooked because of the install process. Maybe i'm wrong.
It looks greater than default keyboard, i will try it

I'm using 1.4 right now, but I didn't do any hardreset, everything worked out of the box after registering it.

[Q] Loss of the HTC Sense keyboard with CM7

Hiya,
OK, so I bit the bullet and rooted my wildfire and loaded CM7.
Some great gains - but the biggest loss is the lack of the HTC sense keyboard, especially with stubby fingers like mine.
You had the option on the sense keyboard to switch the setup to be like an old school cell-phone keyboard with less buttons than the standard qwerty kb and so less chance of hitting the wrong key.
I have had a look round the market but can't see anything obvious.
So is there a good alternative to the non-qwerty HTC sense KB, or any way of getting the non-qwerty HTC sense KB into CM7 running on 2.3.3
Cheers
MD
Download 'smart keyboard pro' from the market. There is a setting in that which allows the old school style of keyboard.
This works fine on CM7. Using it personally.

Used to have thumbs (full version) have not used it in a while now and am still using this.
What I have done was to adjust the size of the keys fractionally and switched off predictive text, it is not really needed with a keyboard this size and it increases perfermance and screen space by taking away the extra word line at the top of the keyboard +++ It has a thumbs feature at the press of a button...
Really nice keyboard. Thanks
Already had it installed, not tried it out yet though!
Thanks for the reminder, I've now configured it as my default input method. Let's see how it goes!
I was on swiftkey tablet version, and I like this keyboard more, it is very nice.
Thank you
Been using it in anger for the first time today. Very nice!
how do you get the keyboard in the picture? Right now I got something really small like it was made for a cell phone. (nevermind wrong app)
O.T.
Where can I get Thor Transformer Keyboard?
Anyone please give me a link or is there an .apk?
Thanks.
I've worked with these guys in the past it is a really nice app for phones and windows but our 10.1 version needs some work I really like thumb and SwiftKey x tablet love how the keys glow like that!
Sent from my A500 using Tapatalk
thanks this key board is working nicely, the split is much easier for thumb typing..
it's kind of funny. I tried this keyboard a few weeks ago and didn't really like it, but I installed it again a few minutes ago and now I do like it. Kinda funny how that happens. I've been using Swiftkey Tablet X, but this may end up being a replacement (at least when I'm not using my bluetooth keyboard) Kind of upsets me now that I paid for Swiftkey...
I really don't know why you guys don't use Swype it's the best keyboard I've ever used! I use it on my sensation and on my iconia. Just go to beta.Swype.com and register for free. It makes no sense to Swype over the whole screen sooooo it has the feature to drop it's size to half that's great! try it you won't regret it
