When you come to Keyboards, iphone is nothing to compare. You can try Swiftkey or Swype. These are all good to me.

You are very welcome. Glad you find what you want.
SwiftKey type method is good, thanks very much.
The stock keyboard is actually really accurate after you calibrtate it. before its crap... but after calibration its way better.
I find swift key annoying at times. Anything else out there? I love the z10 keyboard. Flicking the words onto the page. I remember on older versions of swift key you were able to choose what type of texter you are, precision or speed. I don't see it anymore unless I'm missing something?

That option is still there for swiftkey... same as always... Does it really affect much anyways?

If you go to the keyboard settings you can turn on tracing on the stock htc keyboard. You can choose the trace colors as well.
ps, didnt see this posted anywhere else. if it was, my bad, least its not in the dev section ;p
whoa, you would think they would have mentioned this.
swype was being crappy for me, and shapewriter doesnt fill up the whole screen.
nice find!
Swype wasn't working well for me, this is.
oh wow!. good find!
This was introduced on the Sensation, and I look forward to having it as an option.
How do you trace?

Hey DonSim,
Can you please tell me exactly what you have checked off and checked on under the Touch settings? I can't get it to trace, thank you in advance. or anyone feel free to pitch in.
I find swype to be way more responsive.

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!

I can't agree more, at first I was very off but then I calibrated it and It's perfect. If you haven't calibrated it, do it now it increases your accuracy.

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

I was watching a review of the American version(can't rem which carrier?) and it stated we had choice of three different keyboards...and none was Swype. Man I hadn't planned on rooting immediately, but to get the Swype keyboard, that seems bogus if it doesn't come with it, does anyone know for sure?
If I am not mistaking, I do believe Swype is built into the Samsung keyboard under a different name.

Thankyou, I love Swype. I was just reading through the pages at AndroidCentral.com and they said it this way:
"Those of you used to seeing Swype pre-loaded on Samsung phones can now find this functionality baked into Samsung’s keyboard; to enable it, check the box marked “continuous input” in the keyboard menu."
Is this what you've found cypher? or does the keyboard actually say its the "Swype" keyboard?
I'll prolly know first hand here in just a little while, my GS3 is "Out for Delivery" right now!!

Actually, that's exactly it. It's the "Samsung keyboard" but it's got the 'Swype' functionality. And it's enabled by default.
I don't actually use it or Swype though so I can't comment as to differences or shortcoming, etc.

It's its own keyboard but uses the same sliding motion to type. I find it more accurate than swype.

I also installed Swype beta on it as well, they beefed up the looks of the beta and it looks pretty nice now

one thing that I miss from swype is the ability to hit a word after continuing on with the sentence and getting suggestions. Does anyone now if that option is available for the samsung keyboard? i looked but couldn't find it.

You guys should consider swift key. Seriously.

+1 to FlexT9 keyboard, although I believe the new Swype beta is basically the old FlexT9 and Swype combined as Nuance (creator of FlexT9) bought Swype a while back. The new Swype beta is the first keyboard I've liked over it. I just hope once the beta expires there is a way to purchase it for devices it doesn't come preinstalled on.
I don't like the new T9 (what they're calling Swype) that's built in to the GS3. I was used to Swype on my old Epic, but this version is nowhere near as good. It does have the option to select from a list of possible words, but I have the worst time getting it to accept basic words through "gliding" (not swyping). and end up just typing them when they don't show in the list of suggestions. Granted this is while using my right thumb in one-handed operation, but that's how I used to use Swype with no problems.
If you do type words it doesn't know, it will add them to the dictionary, but I have no idea how to remove them if it's a typo.
It does NOT have Swype.
Samsung keyboard has a swyping feature, but it's very primitive.

i've been using my HTC One for over a month now.
it's great, but the keyboard shows with an increasing delay.
currently when i try to type something, it takes 1-2 seconds for the keyboard to show.
everything else is fast and responsive.
is it because it's loading some dictionary on every show?
is there a way to reset it ?
I haven't had that issue at all. Very fast for me. What see you trying to use it in? Was there a specific app this happens in?

The keyboard is not as good as the real Swype. It doesn't detect when your swiping is unintentionally off target. I had to download the real Swype keyboard to get comfortable again.

What I mean is, the stock keyboard also allows typing by simply sliding a finger from the first letter of a word to its last letter, just like Swype. But the stock keyboard is not as good in predicting the word you intend to type.

You could try the Swype off the Play Store, I believe it's on sale for $1.
Or swiftkey, both are great
