[Q] How to add note3 keyboard to rooted s4? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

So I was using Sacs custom rom. It was great but I was running into a few issues that weren't good for me. I resorted back to a stock MJA rom and recovery. I have added Philz touch back on and rooted.
I would really like to know if anyone knows how to install the note 3 keyboard back onto it which is available in Sacs custom rom. I've tried to run just the .apk but it won't install even after setting it to allow unknown installs.
Is it possible ? I really enjoyed the white instead of black that it is now or maybe there is something a lot more simple that I have missed.
Thanks for any direction people are willing to point me!

Nobody knows? I wish I knew more about roms because like I said the stock white keyboard is available while using sacs v4.3 Anyone out there willing to make it? I've searched all over and can not find a stock keyboard or a way to modify the colors

If you can't get the Note 3's keyboard why not try a 3rd party app like SwiftKey from the playstore? They have a white keyboard although not exactly the Note 3's but not bad looking at all.
GS4 Stock Rooted MJA 4.3,Philz Touch CWM,HotSpot Mod,Transparent Weather Widget,8SMS(Stock Messaging,KitKat)

Thanks for the suggestion but I have tried that one already. I just really like the placement of everything plus having the numbers available without having a long press is great. I have tried lots of the available custom keyboards out there but none stack up to me like the stock one does sadly.

Did you ever get this figured out MrWicked? I've been searching for the exact same thing.

Sadly no I've searched high and low. Tried what little I know to pick apart the rom to see how he did it. I just can't seem to figure out how to do this simple thing, or at least what I thought would be simple. Apparently it's not.

G2 roms with working landscape

Hi Guys,
Just made the switch from my old Xperia x1 to an unlocked G2 that I found on ebay. Rooted it within a minute of it arriving and now wondering what rom to load. I really want the OTA 2.3.4 update but also want it rooted so think i'll wait on that. I also read that some ROMs have buggy landscape modes. Can anyone recommend one that fully works in landscape mode. I got the phone becuase I like the keyboard so would be annoying if the rom didnt support landscape very well.
Thanks
Darren
Just as an FYI there's a pre-rooted version of the OTA that just came out yesterday. There aren't a ton of testers but it seems to be working.
I haven't had a ton of chances to play with all the Sense offerings (don't really care for Sense) but the versions of Virtuous Unity have had working landscape. Many times just using a non-stock launcher can fix landscape issues. Launcher Pro and ADW have always rotated properly for me.

I've been using it the past day and it works great in landscape. Also any stock roms/cm7 work well with landscape, miui roms don't and i find sense roms too slow switching to landscape.
Hi sorry coming back on this again.
If I flash a rom, say the Vision sense 3.0 that doesnt support landscape yet. Does it just mean that only the sense UI wont rotate on keyboard pullout and that apps like messaging, email, browser etc will 'still' rotate and keyboard function fine. Or does all that stuff stop rotating as well?
Thanks

twitchy browser, zooms in out while scrolling?

Does anyone else have this annoyance?
While scrolling up or down the browser will sometimes zoom in and out of its own accord.
Is there a fix or tweak for this please. ?.
I have tried other browsers, same problem...
It is normal. Touch wiz has edge zoom on the edge of the browser window. I and many others hate this feature with the burning passion of a thousand exploding stars. There is no fix on stock for this known to me. The only thing you can do is invision the fleas of a hundred camels all bitting the genitalia of the nimconpoop who thought this was a good idea.

It's by design and it's gone with the latest JB update (LL3).
I must be one of the few who used this... I mean, it IS an annoyance during normal use but if you pair the tablet with a BT mouse (which is extremely useful to me on some occasions) it's very useful because you can zoom in and out without touching the screen.
Anyway, it works (worked) only on the stock browser, on Chrome, Opera or any other one it doesn't (never has).
Just to clarify, this happens on me when scrolling from anywhere on the screen not just from the side? And with other browsers...
Did they deliberately go out of their way to make it twitchy?

Then you must have some other problem..
I have never used my N8000 under ICS because the day I bought it was the day they released JB for the N8000 ( :highfive: ) so I updated it as soon as I got it out the box but on the 2 versions of JB I have been running the tablet was/is almost perfect.
I recently updated to LL3 ITV (the Italian one) and then flashed through Mobile Odin Pro the CWM 6.0.2.3 (the touch version) to complete the update. The update solved the only problem I had with LJ9 which I have been running since I bought the tablet 2 months ago: the keyboard lag (and a problem in the gallery displaying high-res pics has been fixed too).
Very welcome changes are also more MultiWindow apps (and among them Youtube finally!), the return of the S-Note widget which lets you display a note on the home screen and some other minor features which can be enabled under settings.
Polaris was also updated (the update was previously shown as available in Samsung Apps but attempting to actually updating it resulted in Polaris FC'ing) and now the system OTA update check works even if the system is rooted and has a non-original recovery.
BTW, I usually do full wipes and a clean install but out of sheer lack of time this one time I have updated through Mobile Odin Pro (and have kept root). Everything runs beautifully but, again, apart from the annoying keyboard lag I really didn't have any real problem before too.
What a fantastic tablet.

Yea it still zooms in other browsers for me as well. But if its zooming away from the e6dge try a factory reset id say.

Problem with quicksettings and toggles

Good day all!
I've been searching around and have been able to find a reason or solution to my problem and I'm wondering if I did something wrong. I have an AT&T S4 (i337) that I have unlocked and rooted and installed the i9505g 4.3 version. I really love the stock Google experience and was really into it until I noticed that in the menu I seem to be missing interface controls under the settings menu to add toggles to the quick settings. I haven't been able to determine if that's something I did wrong during installing the rom or I simply can't turn things like auto-rotate off on a stock google rom, though it seems very silly to me.
I was using a Task650 rom on the GS3 and I really liked it so I attempted to install an SGH-i337 Task650 rom on my phone, which works great and I get access to edit the toggles but the S-view case doesn't work on that rom since it isn't based on the stock google kernel for the i9505. I was wondering if someone could help point out my mistake on this one, or if we really don't have those toggle options and need to rely on 3rd party solution.
Cheers!

Samsung GS4 Keyboard...for use on the GS4

I've searched around and found several links of the SamsungIME.apk which allows GS3 owners to use the GS4 keyboard. I have not been able to get any of them to work on my GS4 though. I've installed a custom rom based on Cyanogen and can use swiftkey etc but I'd really like to just use the keyboard that came stock with the phone. I'd like to have the number keys across the top without having to longpress or toggle them on. Does anyone know a way to make this happen?

AT&T Galaxy S4 with GPE Room Graphic Issue

Hey All,
I tried searching this thread before posting this and didn't find too much. I installed a Google play edition ROM on my AT&T S4 (i377). It works fine so far but I've been noticing that there are some green lines through the middle of the screen. They look like graphical glitches. I'm willing to accept it if thats just the name of the game, but just wanted to know if anything could be done, or if another rom that works with this phone is better.
It doesn't seem to come up in screenshots either. Anyway let me know if anyone knows something about this issue.
Thanks

Go to your developer options and check if any drawing/rendering screen options are enabled; some of these options can cause screen flashing/margin lines/rendering line updated/etc. If you have any overclocking enabled in a custom kernel restore your GPU and CPU frequencies back to stock and reboot If neither of those don't fix your issue I suggest using a more stable and well known ROM. I myself use a rom by @Task650. Zero issues with it and it's stability is great, very lightweight.
No glitches here. Must be an issue with the room you are running. I run ibl4st1ds kangabean 4.2.2 ROM with the mf3 radio. I side loaded samsung shealth and downloaded watch on from the market. Many Samsung apps work with a simple sideload with the GE ROMS.
