android 4.2 keyboard - Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE

thought i'd post this in case any of my fellow unrooted inc4g people hate the default keyboard as much as I do
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1964663
its the official 4.2 keyboard with swype gesture typing

Thanks a lot I've been waiting for this

I installed the APK but I cannot find a way to switch keyboards. Any advice?
EDIT: Found it! When the additional keyboard is enabled (Settings->Languages & Keyboard->Android Keyboard ON), a keyboard icon appears in the notification bar. Dragging down the notification bar shows "Select input method" which then allows for a kb switch.

After you install go into settings, then language settings and enable it, then find an input field, like in messages, then in the status bar you will see the select input, click that and select the android keyboard and you'll be good

That's my question also.
And I can't get the option to switch keyboards by long pressing in a text field. I always have to pull down the status bar. What gives?

Nice keyboard htc!

I actually like it, but I noticed to things...it auto corrects words (like roms) that don't need correcting. But...I also noticed there's no greater than or less than keys! I use them all the time!

Ya not having the arrows is a problem when texting. Because if I need to type a word that doesnt exist in the dictionary but I dont want to add it Im sort of out of luck, since I can't select the other word.

Arrows are disgusting lol the gingerbread text selector is wayyyyyyyy better. Also does anyone else get "lol" in all caps when they type it? I do and i always have to press the lowercase version which is getting annoying LOL.
Get the < > you just press the "12#" then "1/2". You would think since we have a longer screen we would have plenty of room for the arrow keys. If we ever get root we can try some of the other keyboards and possibly get it to work.

settings-language & keyboard-touch input-text input-calibration tool. You can also turn on the swype-like feature of the htc keyboard. It seems to work pretty good and you can still punch away as normal if you don't want to slide.

You don't have to hit the space bar with Swype. Just swype the next word.
And I'm actually surprised at how many people missed the arrows. I used to see everyone complaining about them and using the HTC-IME Mod. Personally, I use Smart Keyboard Pro with the HTC skin, and it's perfect for me. You can also enable arrows that are just like the ones on the HTC keyboard if you want.

If you're using swype, you shouldn't need to be hitting the spacebar. It does that automatically for you, unless you're tapping on letters - and swype 2 SUCKS at tapping.
Swype 3, different story - it's WAY better than swype 2.
But no root, no swype 3 beta
For everyone wondering how to calibrated it. Go to settings, keyboard, touch input, text input, and at the bottom It's called Calibration Tool

There is an input selector icon in the status bar whenever the keyboard pops. If you click that you can easily change the input method.

This should be possible, just need someone with the knowledge and time to make one.
I am sure the S-pen SDK allows us to monitor when the s-pen is removed so we should be able to trigger an app to auto-switch keyboard at that point.

I would argue that double tapping to open smemo is the same amount of work.
It is amazing, however, how awesome it is to have smemo automatically open and close when you pull the pen in and out.

intelinside83 was referring to the lack of a number row on the stock Android 4.2 keyboard. The stock Samsung keyboard is quite different, including the inclusion of the number row.

This really is quite silly of Samsung. The keyboard has auto prediction and in my experience the auto prediction works quite well. The problem is that the keyboard will only input what you actually type regardless of whether or not it's correct. If you want to enter a predicted word you have to tap it yourself. I can't imagine it would be too difficult for Samsung to change the keyboard to favor the top predicted word, which would essentially be auto correct.
I'm still using the Samsung keyboard though because I'm getting along with the Swiftkey flow integration rather nicely.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app
I'm actually really happy for the number row since I use numbers frequently and it was a pain having to constantly toggle it on/off. And, that auto-correction is disabled as I usually disable it any. Just had to turn off auto-spacing and auto-capitalization because it was wreaking havoc on authenticating into web sites like this one as it was adding a space in-between my password. Good riddance I say...

It is reported that upcoming 4.1.2 (not 4.2) enhancements will include integrated "swyping" functionality into the keyboard so it wouldnt make sense for them not to rectify the autocorrection issue.

Did the stock Sammy JB keyboard in the GS3 have no autocorrect either? Or does that phone still run ICS?
I might just have to switch to Swiftkey or Thumb Keyboard again - but that number row is GREAT - it is hard to turn away from it.
Yeah I went back to the stock samsung keyboard just cuz of the numbers... silly but I'm loving it! Just hooing for auto-correction. Maybe if they dont fix it someone will come out with a 3rd party with numbers!
Tappin from my Marble White Note II
Yup, no autocorrect. I'm using Swiftkey now.
It seems the Samsung keyboard is actually a variation of the swiftkey flow. I wonder if it's something to do with that. The flow part works pretty well and I love the number row

Post-JB Update - Back to old keyboard?

I literally hate the new keyboard that got installed with the new update. I also prefer good old fashioned typing to using Swype.
Anybody got a way to go back to the ICS keyboard?

There are plenty of free keyboards in the Play Store. Here is a random version of the ICS keyboard, for free:

Good call, I didn't even think of that. I'll kick around and see if I can find something a bit closer to what the stock keyboard was. After 6 months, I just can't go to the new one. My fingers aren't smart enough.
In the meantime, here's to hoping someone can point me at the actual stock keyboard from ICS!
EDIT:
I actually like this one better than the original ICS keyboard that was shipped w/ this phone: Link
Just wish it had built in emoticons. I use them like a 12yr old girl when sending SMS.
Find the 4.2 keyboard apk. It's amazing.

I'll check it out.
In the end, I just really liked the stock ICS keyboard that came on the LTE.
I can live with the new keyboard but I just need to know how to hide it. The ICS keyboard had a hide button in the bottom left corner, the new one doesn't have one at all that I can find. Sometimes pressing the back arrow next to the home button on the bottom of the phone will make the keyboard go away after typing so I can see and press a send button but sometimes that will take me back to the previous screen and I'll lose everything I just typed.
What's wrong with it? It works great for me. They even let you remove the arrows at the bottom so that they aren't in the way like in ics... And if you wanna close it, hit back. Its rather simple really... And the swipe feature works great.

[Flashable ZIP] True Android Emoji Keyboard

One big change that I noticed on the GE 4.3 was the addition of the emoji keyboard, so I extracted it and put it into my system/app (with the necessary permission (rw/r/r) changes of course!) and tried it out, here it is in case anyone else would like it. Android users are finally able to use Emoji on twitter/Instagram/facebook!
EDIT: Doesn't seem to like Touchwiz or 4.2.2, force closes continuously.
EDIT2: for a working flashable zip check eortizr's post below (post #8 ) be sure and thank him!
Doesn't like CM 10.1 either on ATTS4
Edit: just noticed the OR statement

Maybr it also requires some libs? If its working on google edition rom than id say its just missing some libs
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk 2
It seems to work flawlessly in my sgs4, the libs you need is called "libemoji.so" or "libwnn.so" in system/lib.
You cand find it in some thread in the forums, i had it since the first version of jellybean.
The problem I found is that the keyboard doesn't display the emojis, I don't know why, because we have the emoji font already.
Good luck and see a preview

Maybe it requires some frameworks to detect the emoji font in system, but anyways, the new emoji keyboard works very well in my phone.
You can use it on whatsapp for example, but you can't see the emojis you tap in the keyboard.
Well emoji is working good with just the apk and lib...However, its still a hassle to use as you have to enable it under settings, and once enabled you have no access to regular keyboards...now im assuming the google keyboard from 4.3 leak has a shortcut to the emojis however im having dificulty getting it to work on the stock rom, it doesnt seem to want to load when enabled and also causes massive lag throughout the system when enabled...tomorrow ill get a logcat to see what im missing...and hopefully im not wasting my time
Edit: if I cam figure this out I will create a flashable zip for users

Maybe im missing something....the emoji part works as did my other emoji keyboard from 4.3...but what I want is a normal keybiard that has a shortcut to the emojis on the keyboard...that way I dont have to go into my setting every time I want to use an emoji.
Now in the zip I noticed it does have "iWnnIME_Kbd_White.apk" and " iWnnIME.apk" the second is the emoji keyboard...the first looks like its supposed to be a regular keyboard, however it never pops up in my settings as an input method...for you does this install a regular keyboard as well? Or do you also have to go into settings everytime to use the emojis...
Was able to figure out a work around by installing the Google keyboard from the market, deleting all other keyboards including Samsung's and swype, then under settings of both googles and the emoji keyboard check the option "switch to other input methods" this places a new key next to the space bar that when pressed switches to a different input method...you can long press it to select a diff one or just quick press it and it will switch to the next one...by deleting all other keyboards I only have one other keyboard so it by default it just switches between the Google keyboard and emoji now

One big change that I noticed on the GE 4.3 was the addition of the emoji keyboard, so I extracted it and put it into my system/app (with the necessary permission (rw/r/r) changes of course!) and tried it out, here it is in case anyone else would like it. Android users are finally able to use Emoji on twitter/Instagram/facebook!
EDIT: Doesn't seem to like Touchwiz or 4.2.2, force closes continuously.

Maybe im missing something....the emoji part works as did my other emoji keyboard from 4.3...but what I want is a normal keybiard that has a shortcut to the emojis on the keyboard...that way I dont have to go into my setting every time I want to use an emoji.
Now in the zip I noticed it does have "iWnnIME_Kbd_White.apk" and " iWnnIME.apk" the second is the emoji keyboard...the first looks like its supposed to be a regular keyboard, however it never pops up in my settings as an input method...for you does this install a regular keyboard as well? Or do you also have to go into settings everytime to use the emojis...
Was able to figure out a work around by installing the Google keyboard from the market, deleting all other keyboards including Samsung's and swype, then under settings of both googles and the emoji keyboard check the option "switch to other input methods" this places a new key next to the space bar that when pressed switches to a different input method...you can long press it to select a diff one or just quick press it and it will switch to the next one...by deleting all other keyboards I only have one other keyboard so it by default it just switches between the Google keyboard and emoji now

i use the same method to quickly switch. had already only had google keyboard installed. found it to be the easiest route.

I found an easy fix to view emoji on my Samsung 4. I changed the font back to default or samsung sans in settings. I can now view black and white emoji. ?
Waiting patiently for colored emoji view with any font in any program.

I've tried this as well as Kii keyboard + emoji plug in. I've always been able to see emojis and wants to be able to use them in texts too.
It seems though that the recipients are unable to see them. They just get question marks. This has been for ios users and android users I text.
Is anyone able to confirm that others can see the emojis when sent?

I still can't see emojis in keyboard or interface, I only can see some symbols and squares. What could be my problem??
Can I check whether you're sure that you extracted this iWnnIME.apk from the system apps in Android 4.3?
Reason why I'm asking is that iWnn IME is actually a 3rd party IME that's available in Play Store (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.co.omronsoft.iwnnime.ml.sc04d&hl=en). I find it difficult to believe that Google would include it as a bundled IME in their factory images.
Can you verify this? Thank you.
