physical landscape qwerty, i wish this was a thing on modern phones

the onscreen keyboard.

inputting them into my anus

writing with my dick

Op here.

I am asking because today MessagEase got a crappy update and stopped working. I am completely lost without it.

swiping for sure, it's super fast. i used swype years ago, i don't know if it's still around. now i use swiftkey (i have disabled internet access for it to escape the microsoft botnet). best keyboard i've ever used.

I miss my Nokia C3 :(
It was the chink meme of back then, one of the cheapest QWERTY but it lasted me like 3 years.

just a keyboard app, AnySoftKeyboard

Does it have support for swiping?

doesnt seem to
it's just a better keyboard than stock, but without swipe i guess

Have you heard of google?

Nintype / Keyboard 69

Plebs begone

I've been using Fleksy for the past couple of years
>The good
Customizable
Tabs for editors/ numbers/ etc
Comfy layout
>The bad
Very limited dictionaries for both English & foreign languages
Autocorrects single letters (j always gets corrected to k)

Should I switch to something else?

you forgot
> botnet
easily fixed with afwall

Same, I'm fucking crippled without it.

How would you type something like "ASS"?

you do a circle on the letter you need to input twice, it works quite well and is pretty fast.
swiping is the way to go if you don't have a physical keyboard, imo

Swiping, even though it sucks ass on Gboard.

Regular keyboard with good error correction. So far Minuum has the best error correction of all keyboards.

SwiftKey here. The themes suck but I haven't seen any keyboard with as good alternate keys (hold down the key to type a different symbol). The swiping is alright but with all the words I've added it autocorrects wrong a lot

You can do the squiggle shit on the letter you want two of, but it's often faster to just ignore it and select the version you want from the suggestion list (or type it in manually) instead of relying on the algorithm to pick it up. For instance, you swipe in "a - s", it completes it to "as", but the three options above are "ass", "add", "and" which you select "ass" from.

If I tried to circle over the letter instead, it autocompletes it to "Ada's" and offers shit like "assassin" in the suggestions (literally how).

Have you been hitting the bug where it auto corrects I'm to I on every second occasion?

Their guidance on correcting it is to disable autocorrect, which defies the fucking point.

It also kept suggesting Abdul (or something, can't remember) instead of about. Legit drove me up the fucking wall. I've rolled back to a year old version before they introduced their new prediction algorithm, and it works just fine.

Use the custom theme option if you want better themes. You can select an image and all your colours etc.

Generally prefer qwerty landscape keyboard. Even on a touch screen it's fine.

One handed swype is great through. Bit of a learning curve but fast as hell once you get it down.

i haven't encountered any autocorrect bugs, though i mostly write in german on my phone.

G Board, mix of swiping and manually typing.

Id love to have physical keyboard though.

True.

It makes me sound like a complete fucking mongoloid.

"I'm going to the movies" becomes "I going to the movies". For a work phone, really not good.

Bloody Microsoft.

...

Or you could pay attention to what you wrote and proof read it before you send it?

I install the xperia keyboard on every device I use

I do, but it auto corrects when I move on to the next word, not when I type it.

So I proof read as I go and then get fucked. Having to re-read the whole thing each time rather gimps one's typing speed.

I got so used to the LG stock keyboard that when I switched I frantically looked for a keyboard that looked and worked the same way I ended up using Google's keyboard

Mechanical keyboard

I have that same taiwan sd card. Its a rip off. 32mb not gb.

Slamming my cock against the screen

I have no idea how swiping across the keyboard should be in any way faster than tapping the individual keys

I miss my D4, but I'm too normie to not have current apps/games so I'm on the G4Play and I hate fatfinger onscreen lookaround your thumbs keyboard.

Did you find a fix for it? I am going crazy trying to use something else.
I tried rebooting my phone, reinstalling the app, reversing to previous versions and nothing.

touch screen with haptic/rumble tactile reedback

...

>Still relying on QWERTY keyboard
Total pleb

I wish I did not have to type so many "special characters" on my everyday life. It limits a lot my options of alternative keyboards. It sucks to use DotDash, 5-Tiles, TipType, etc. in this condition.

Passport keyboard

I found a fix for the blank keyboard bug!

Just change the date to a day before today (Jan-12-2018) and ME will start working again. Now you can set the date to automatic again and it will continue working!

Thank you so fucking much, that's perfect

how is it compared to the LG keyboard, I like the LG keyboard too.

Swiftkey. It makes physical keyboards obsolete

I really wanted to like MessagEase, I think it's a neat concept, but sadly, I just couldn't get the hang of it.

Pretty similar
Pretty much all buttons work in the same way
2 things I miss are holding the space to move the cursor (which I "solved" by adding some arrows in the navbar that moved the cursor, you can see them in pic related, the < and >) and holding m to insert ?

Dickswipe technology.

AnySoftKeyboard because I'm not a botnet cuck.

That's weird i can hold space to move the cursor on gboard.

I guess Ill stick with LGs keyboard I dont feel the need to change it pretty much works fine for me.

It took me a while, but I can't use anything else now. Just gave up on using my phone until other user found the fix.

Just curious, does that typing tutor-like game they have help any?

The BlackBerry KEYone keyboard

Never even tried it

Nintype if only it was more stable on iOS. For now stock iOS but I'd love to use Nintype. The crashing and non popup is just so frustrating.

2 finger slide typing really is the best

Garbage compared to the Classic and Passport keyboards.

>That's weird i can hold space to move the cursor on gboard.
If I hold it I get a pop up window to change the keyboard language

Yeah but did you manage to get it to work on a non LG phone or non stock based ROM?
Haven't been able to set it up without the LG framework which so far I've been unsuccessful to install on aosp ROMs

Swipe while you hold.

Hear hear, Swiftkey is absolute garbage, over 70% of all my word predictions are completely wrong.

Yeah that actually worked
I still prefer how it worked on the LG keyboard but it's better than the input arrows
Thanks user

SwiftKey

how do you eaven type on that thing?

>What's your favorite input method for smartphones?
Flesky

>The BlackBerry KEYone keyboard
how does the keyone keyboard compare to Fleksy?

Gboard on android, stock keyboard on iOS

Ass
It works

You can buy a case that adds this to many popular phones but it also makes the phones bigger

i always assumed the constant bluetooth connection would drain by phone's battery like woah

GBoard for multilingual typing, although it pisses me off that a fucking keyboard would weight 200mb.

Fleksy for literally everything else.

Never used that. Can't say

Error happened even if you didn't install the update.

Anyhow, they updated it again, the very latest one fixes everything (for now).

>GBoard for multilingual typing, although it pisses me off that a fucking keyboard would weight 200mb.
How else would they fit all the telemetry and backdoors in?

How the fuck do you use this? Is it on F-Droid?

Rubbing my cock all over the screen and hoping people understand what I'm saying

My nigger. This keyboard is the reason I refuse to get new phones. That and when it breaks it only costs me about 40 bucks to get a new one. Wish it wasn't so slow, but the price I have to pay.

That phone was the shit

Just installed it, I'm starting to get the hang of it but the learning app isn't working for some reason because it "isn't supported by my device". I'm using Android Nougat. Typed this with Messagease.

Voice. It's really accurate these days and I'm getting progressively too lazy to type.

The fuck do I do if I like the autocorrect of Fleksy, but still want to swipe to type sometimes? Kms?

People actually use this? Sell it to me

throwing them at a wall till they do something

One is physical and one isn't you dingus

It's technically faster if you're autistic enough to learn how to use it

Swipe-based solutions. There's a few out there, take your pick. That combined with a well laid out QWERTY for normal typing when you just want to hit letters.

Minuum

But that's botnet

How the fuck does it even work?

just downgrade???
