anyone wanna leave stock keyboard but...

+1 I really like the stock TB/Sense keyboard. And I've looked into almost all these here: linky

But I still like the stock. The arrows are great.
 
I went straight to Better Keyboard and never really used the stock except for the initial setup. With everyone talking about how great the arrows are, I may have to give it a shot.
 
The stock keyboard for me seemed very slow and laggy .. I use the Gingerbread keyboard from the market .. I rather have a faster keyboard than a slower one with arrows ..

I did the exact same thing. I loaded my thunderbolt up and that was the first application I downloaded after entering my Gmail. I love the gb keyboard.
 
you dont need arrows because you can touch anywhere on the screen or in any word with your finger. I use Swype but might try gingerbread keyboard
 
I like the stock keyboard.... but after reading so many peoples feedback about its slow response, I've come to realize that I'm slower then the keyboard. :(
 
I WANTED to keep the stock keyboard, and I WANTED to like it... But as people have said, it was REALLY laggy and the space bar was either just too small, or unresponsive (like the stock keyboard on my Droid X)...

So I downloaded Smart Keyboard Pro - loved it on my Droid X, and love it on my Thunderbolt.
 
I just downloaded better keyboard and I have to say its great. Works very well with absolutely zero lag. Downloaded the gingerbread skin and I'm good to go....
 
i have been using a variant of this keyboard with that gimpsta site from a while back. but the arrows are great!

i used the GB keyboard with CM7 and its really nice, but without the arrows. i prefer stock.

sense is pretty snazzy!
 
I used the GB KB religiously on my Inc, tried it on my Bolt and didn't like it. I relied heavily on my trackpad with the Inc and without it I really use the arrows a lot. Hopefully once sense GB is released the KB will have arrows and I can use it again :)
 
You know with the gingerbread keyboard you can press and hold the space bar and drag up the same arrow keys that are on the stock sense keyboard right.
 
I used the GB keyboard...and I like it, but damn those arrows sure are handy!!!
I flipped the first day or two. Stock is fine with me.
 
Swiftkey kept deleting everything when I hit the backspace and I found some really strange words show up too. Looks cool but didn't work well for me. Going to try the Gingerbread keyboard everyone is raving about.

Maybe on your Inspire you can, but you can't on the Thunderbolt. I just tried. Do you have a modded GB KB that came with a ROM or that you flashed? That could be why

i'm booting up my old droid with the stock GB keyboard. it works on my TB but if it works on my OG droid, its gonna blow my mind
 
it's funny. i guess I'm the only one who absolutely hates the stock keyboard. those ****ing arrows take up even more space on the screen and they're annoying.
 
I broke down and got this for $9.00....
