Default Swiftkey 3

Coming from an iphone 4 the stock HTC keyboard was my biggest issue. Swiftkey 3 is awesome, was on the beta before 3 was released. The cobalt theme is very minimal and clean and matches the rest of the UI well.

Agreed. Former iPhone 4 user here as well. The stock keyboard was awful. Downloaded Swiftkey 3 and now it's much better.

I have been using SwiftKey 3 for the past few days and while the keyboard itself is great, it has WAY too much confidence in its word predicting abilities and can be incredibly annoying. I have tried every damn setting possible and when I finally get one thing to my liking, something else starts annoying me. I wish it would function like the stock keyboard because then it would be perfect.

Did you choose the precise typer option? Pretty sure that helps it. Plus using SwiftKey has kept me from putting in a ton of periods.

Just download ics keyboard from the market.

Or for ex-iPhone users...get the iPhone keyboard from the Play Store.

Swiftkey 3 is a must, I swear it is one of the apps that I never regret buying.
Nova Launcher if you don't like sense (but HTC has some pretty nice widgets with Sense)
Tasks
Google Drive is awesome. Just drag a file into the folder on my desktop and bam it appears in my App in a minute or two.
Dropbox is useful because it can automatically upload photos taken.
