In your stock ROM zip file...

Locate the .apk that you want - it will be in /system/app/ (no idea what the keyboard apk is called, sorry)

Then extract it from the ROM zip.

Place the .apk on your phones SD card.

Using a ROOT EXPLORER - ie. Root explorer, files geek or es file explorer

Copy and paste the .apk to /sytem/app/ on your phone

Now reboot your phone

Go into settings - and see if you can enable "android keyboard" (or whatever it is called)

If it is not listed there then just try long pressing on a text entry box and selecting android keyboard.

This should work - it works with launchers.

Settings>Language and keyboard>And make sure all the keyboards have ticks by them.

Now try long pressing a text entry box.

Still no luck? check the android 2.1 keyboard apk is DEFINITELY in /system/app/ - makesure the copy didn't fail.

Try rebooting again - you may need to delete the gingerbread keyboard from /system/app/ - but I don't think you should.

Make sure the permissions of the apk in /system/app/ are the same as the permissions of other apks (long press apk>permissions)
