still like swype so far, what's pros and cons for this keyboard from Moto

**t0ast3d** · 06-26-2010, 12:54 AM

Nothing really, I love it.

It's buttons are spaced but still large.

It's white and when you press it's red.

It's worth trying out non the less

screenies?

**UTnick** · 07-01-2010, 02:45 PM

hmm, i am gonna try this. i tend to hit the space key with other keys while typing and then words run together when the space key doesn't register. i like the way the sense keyboard looks, though. darn choices in life.

**UTnick** · 07-01-2010, 02:46 PM

oh, and once you download and install a new keyboard you have to go to a text input field and long press on it. then select input method and select the keyboard you wanna use.

**UTnick** · 07-01-2010, 03:59 PM

I am trying to download it my phone but it keeps stopping. Driving me nuts.

**UTnick** · 07-01-2010, 04:12 PM

Menu -> Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> Multitouch Keyboard (or whatever its listed as) -> Uninstall

I can type 3 times better on this keyboard than on the stock, or Swype keyboard (without actually Swyping). Best non-swype keyboard for sure. I never miss the space bar.

This 100% works. Just make sure you allow 3rd party applications, and then go into the keyboard menu in settings, and click the multi-touch keyboard, then click and hold down the field where you type, and press input method, then multi-touch keyboard.

I know this aren't the best directions, but I'm at work, and I don't have time to spell it all out.

**Ky1e.YC** · 07-02-2010, 12:13 AM

for english typing, swype, then HTC keyboard, good enough 4 me...

**UTnick** · 07-02-2010, 12:38 AM

I can't get this keyboard to come up as an option when I select the input method.

A week ago when I first saw this posted on xda-developers, the haptic touch didn't work with it. Has that been sorted out yet?

Shouldn't have haptic feedback

**UTnick** · 07-03-2010, 10:50 AM

hey t0ast3d -- any idea why i can't get the keyboard to present itself as an option under input method?

The option is there for haptic feedback but it doesn't seem to work. That's the main reason I switched back to the stock keyboard. I like having the haptic feedback. The key clicking sound does work, but I find it quite annoying.
