The port of the Gingerbread Keyboard - Force/Closes

I used the one from this link and it works perfectly. It did FC at first until I changed the keyboard in settings.

Yes flash through recovery and once your device reboots go into settings and select the second android keyboard

I installed and was getting FC's after every reboot. So I did a TiBu of Android Keyboard v.2.2.1 and uninstalled it. No more FC's and no need to select a specific keyboard.

is there an easy fix for the FCs on every boot?
I just posted a few comments back how I did it, no FC since. Just flash the GBKB and backup "android keyboard version 2.2.1" then delete it. Now you'll only have the GBKB and it won't FC.

Btw, I used any port of this keyboard that I could, and got FC no matter what until I did this.

If you Don't remove the old keyboard you have to go into settings and select the second keyboard .. if you Don't u will keep getting force closes

Sweet, I'm going to take a break from Swype and use this for a while. I just installed and it works great!

EDIT: I noticed a bug. When you tap on a word you already entered it gives you options of other words you can change it to. When you select one of those words it just inserts the word you selected inside the word that was already entered. This was the version at the MegaUpload link. I'm going to try the other version now.

If anyone knows of a version that doesn't have this bug, let us know.

I did that and would still get FC after reboots, and would have to select that keyboard again. That's pretty annoying if you ask me lol. I would just delete the old keyboard if you want to keep it. If you change your mind, then re-install the old one and delete the GBKB
