I’ve just done this and I like the HTC keyboard. It seems faster and a bit better at predictive typing.<\/p>\n

These are kam187’s instructions. <\/p>\n

Original post here androidforums.com – htc keyboard on samsung!<\/a><\/p>\n

– Download this zip file: Tastiera T9 Samsung Galaxy.zip<\/a><\/p>\n

– Copy the two .apk files to the memory of you Galaxy (you can mount your SD card to your PC and copy the files – plug in the cable, pull down the notification bar and click ‘USB connected’, then mount the sdcard. It’ll show up as a new drive on your computer).<\/p>\n

– Install Astro File Manager<\/b> from the Android market.<\/p>\n

– Open Astro File Manager find and click HTC_IME<\/b>, click Open App Manager<\/i> and then click the Install<\/i> button. <\/p>\n

– Open Astro File Manager find and click Clicker<\/b>, click Open App Manager<\/i> and then click the Install<\/i> button.<\/p>\n

Note: The installation of applications not sourced from the Android Market is blocked by default, so you will need to allow this. <\/p>\n

– Go to Locale & Text<\/b> in the settings menu and select Touch Input and Exit <\/p>\n

– Go back into Locale & Text and in the Touch Input options choose the alphanumeric Keypad and exit.<\/p>\n

– Now create a new text message and click and hold the text box and select Input method, and select Touch Input<\/p>\n

(If you use adb you can just install the apk by typing adb install HTC-IME.apk and adb install Clicker.apk)<\/p>\n

Here’s another set of instructions with some more details if you need them.. <\/p>\n
