Install the Gingerbread QWERTY onto your Android 2.2 or 2.1 device

0. phoneArena posted on 19 Dec 2010, 12:02

One of the major changes in Android 2.3 is the new Gingerbread keyboard; thanks to Xda-developers you could be clacking away at the new QWERTY without having to root your Android 2.2 or Android 2.1 phone...

The keyboard pops up just fine, but force closes every single time i try to type anything. Using MyTouch 4G unrooted 2.2..... This was one of the major things i like about Gingerbread too. Oh Well

The keyboard is really small. It is definitely smaller than the stock keyboard.
Anyone else having this issue? Im on the droid X by the way.

16. protozeloz posted on 20 Dec 2010, 06:46

a super tiny keyboard?
yes its being reported xda guys are on it

17. cw0974 posted on 20 Dec 2010, 12:08

it's not tiny. but it's definitely shorter than the stock. i've been reading that it is supposed to be that way. Mine isn't as bad as some droid 2 users saying that they can't even read the keys. Mine's not that small.

I like it so far! Seems like I screw up a lot less!

19. mez2010 (unregistered) posted on 21 Dec 2010, 15:22

Works great on my samsung mezmerize (aka fascinate) ! Its so much smoother than the standard 2.1 keyboard!

20. PeteHTCDHD (unregistered) posted on 23 Dec 2010, 10:21

Installed it loads of times on my Desire HD, and the results are the same....a forced close whenever i touch a key, the only ones that work are the punctations. It even does it on the Android keyboard i found online and installed. I've searched around the net, and no one seems to have a fix or know what the problem is. A bit crap really...

can you put it on a motorola backflip 2.1?
