Hello Sailfish really needs an T9 keyboard input mode as part of the fw,used It all time with my Nokia 808 and with android phones,smart keyboard on google play is an excellent one.not easy to write on the keyboard as It is Now. know theres been request for this earlier but nothing has happened to It

I'm in favour of this. I put this on every discussion I could find when Jolla first got started. Not that any kind of answer was every given or shown.

I vote this up, although I am very used to the keyboard now, which I wasn't coming from N8 and N9 with fantastic T9 keypad/dialler.

I don't think we will see any change here for some time to come, but we can try!

Any chance of this happening any time soon?

Surely there must be more people who prefer the T9 layout - it makes typing so much faster and the bigger buttons are a lot harder to miss! For me, typing on a full QWERTZ/QWERTY keyboard is a nightmare, especially in portrait mode and with the low contrast design of the Jolla keyboard and with no clear separation of the individual keys. I don't even want to imagine this on a smaller phone running Sailfish...

Will this be implemented in the future? Or is there any way to at least change the appearance of the keyboard to give it better contrast and key separation?
