how do I change the setting in TouchPal?

if its on the qwerty layout just hold your finger on one side of the keyboard and swipe all the way to the opposite side and it will change layouts, also if your in the config tab you can swipe left and right for more options.

TouchPal is just easier to use imo, try it you might like it.

EZinput is by far the best and most stable keyboard i've used

I think I have tried every KB made at one time or another (including some of the really weird options like the Dasur setups)

TouchPal has a learning curve to it to really appreciate how good it is. I bet I installed & deleted it three times & could never see what people where raving about (I hated it really)

I kept seeing praise after praise for TouchPal however & people kept saying you need to use & learn all the ins & outs before deciding if you like it or not.

I finally decided to install TP again & really give it a chance this time. I installed it, read all the help files & worked through all the tutorials & then practiced with it for probably probably a week or more.

At that point, I realized what people where saying. Ever since I did that, I have not used a hardware KB once (in either my old titan or the newer TouchPro). I still have SPB full screen KB installed & use that occasionally when T+ is not an option, but I use TouchPal 99.9% of the time. I find that TP with T+ can be insanely fast for stuff like sms & the auto correction options are amazing (much better than any other option).

I used to have the same opinion as a lot of other posters, this other option (whatever it is) works fine so why bother trying anything else?? I sure am glad I gave TP a chance however.....

Thanks for the informative post. I've tried it several times myself and keep removing it. I'll read the help files and give it a couple of weeks tryout.

Another vote for TouchPal. After the learning curve, it's absolutely great. The word, sentence, and phrase shortcuts are awesome. Also two thumbs up for the TouchPal tech/customer support guys. No one else has ever answered my emails so fast.

Is there any way to make TouchPal the default after a reset?

my vote goes out to shapewriter KB, similar to swype KB. Think of it as typing by connecting the letters. It's got a letter recognition rate of about 80% + when sliding with my sloppy fat thumb.
