I just installed BlackDroid, and I'm loving it so far. However, I don't care for the keyboard. I seem to make more mistakes with that keyboard as opposed to the stock keyboard. So how do I get back to stock keyboard???
Thanks!
This is a discussion on BlackDroid Keyboard within the Blackdroid forums, part of the Custom Roms category; I just installed BlackDroid, and I'm loving it so far. However, I don't care for the keyboard. I seem to make more mistakes with that ...

Well.. I'm not really sure whether this is safe or not so I can't exactly recommend it, but what I did was download the Ultimate Droid 8.0 update.zip which has the stock keyboard. After you download it put it on your sd card. I used Root explorer, I'm not sure whether or not astro will work, but go into the zip file system>app> and extract the VoiceSearchWithKeyboard.apk. Go to the Extracted Folder in the SD card and copy that file. Now go into the system/app of your phone (NOT THE ZIP ANYMORE) and press the mount R/W button at the top of the menu. I suggest backing up the current VoiceSearchWithKeyboard.apk (you don't have to though). Paste the file and say yes when it asks to replace. Now tap and hold the file and change the permissions to
User: read,write
group: read
others: read
and then reboot. You should have the stock keyboard now.
Tell me how it goes.
its not the voice command setting I'm worried about, I saw how to take that off in settings.... it's how the keys just all blend together and there's no real outline between keys
yeah. that APK is the apk for the whole entire keyboard. I know what you're talking about. You want the stock android keyboard and this is how i did mine. Despite the misleading title of the apk it is the apk for the entire keyboard.
oh ok thanks... I guess I can give that a try
Yeah, try it out and tell me how it goes.. Best of luck
Hmm I did exactly as you said and my keyboard remains the same, dark without borders.... did I need to check execute when choosing read or write??? I didn't check it for any of the three choices...
Have u rebooted?
yes.... I did
would like to know how to do this as well... definitely prefer the stock keyboard![]()
