Im giving swiftkey a go, i bought the full version straight up cause i wanted to test it out for my self and see if it was worth it. One thing i do like alot is the ability to split the keyboard into in landscape mode cause of the size of the note 2's displayuploadfromtaptalk1359426640776.jpg lol. Im really liking the themes too. :thumbup::D

I'm using the stock Android keyboard. I know some people don't like it all that much but I haven't used anything yet that is all around as good as it for general typing. Swiftkey is a close second though.

I just tried out the hackers keyboard, at first I was like, wow a proper layout but after five mins I realised its not the keyboard for me. The keys are too small and the dark style seems to mock all the fat finger mistakes, plus erie silence, I couldn't find any sound settings
The Hackers has settings that allow you to change colors/styles, sounds and swipe typing among many others.

I liked the stock keyboard cause of the swpying but i recently changed to Kii keyboard cause it has better accuracy when typing like a normal phone with both hands lol. Has a bunch of customisable options. I changed my skin to match my grey and white otterbox defender. :thumbup::D View attachment 57981

I too use swift key flow, if only it had a number row option it would be almost perfect.

This is better than SwiftKey3 that I've been using since I got my Note 2. :)

Thank you

I'm trying this Kii keyboard now. It's really nice. Thank you for the tip. I love swiftkey but this one has me thinking about switching.

Does SwiftKey flow also have this option? I would like to try it if it does. Thanks!

I was using SwiftKey on my evo lte but when I got my note 2 I gave the stock keyboard a shot. I begin to love it, mainly because of the dedicated number row but I ended up going back to swift key flow because of auto correct and I missed my neon keyboard.

Note 2, it's true, ,size is everything!

thanks I found them now, but its still the problem that with so many keys each individual key is smaller, and thats difficult with fat thumbs.
That's so true but in landscape it works out better but I really don't type that much since I don't know how to text.

I've downloaded quite a few now, so many that I'm finding it difficult to remember which one is which. What I really need now is a shortcut to switch keyboards, there should be one in the status bar but when I press the keyboard symbol that the screen does a flip the option pop up is on screen for 2 seconds and then the screen flips back

SwiftKey's split keyboard on landscape makes it feel alot more comfortable typing with the note 2 in landscape if your like me and have a big bulky case(got an ottterbox defender on this beast) SwiftKey is definitely a go. :thumbup::D
