How to change default keyboard

[scholarbowlchicka]

So I just installed the android 4.0 and my keyboard is stuck on the Google keyboard. It says it is default and it is the only keyboard option I can check or uncheck. Can someone please tell me how to change the default keyboard from the Google one? Thank you so much.

Download an alternative (like swiftkey or Swype). The next time you do anything that opens the keyboard, it'll ask you which one you want to use (and give you the option to always use it).

I you need or want to switch, just long press anywhere in a type-able field and it'll ask you again.
