I want to disable the vibrations on the dial pad and the keyboard and to keep the feedback only for the touch keys... how can I do that? everything stock so far
Settings- Sound- Feedback- Disable Haptic feedback.
Regards.
Did that but it also disables the vibration of the 'menu' and 'back' buttons... I want it disabled only for the on screen keyboard

If I'm not wrong Go Contacts can do that for you. IF you really need the stock dial then just accept the faith. No phone can be made to satisfy all it's users.
use a 3rd party keyboard with the ability to turn haptic feedback on/off, for example swiftkey x
I think the gingerbread keyboard from the market may also have that option.
As far as the dialpad, I dont think there is a way with the stock one.
stupid question,
In previous versions of android, I could long press a text field to bring up the "select input method" box to quickly switch between keyboards installed on the device without having to leave the app I was in.
I don't seem able to do that in JellyBean?
I have Swiftkey 3 Tablet installed if that makes any difference.
Am I missing something obvious?
bring up the kb and long press space on stock kb
thanks, that's great,
but what I really want to do is switch from Swiftkey 3 Tablet to another input method like the handwriting input that comes with "7notes".
the more input methods you select in 'settings>language and input' the more options should appear to switch between. Or, is that not appearing using swiftkey?
long pressing space in swiftkey doesnt seem to do anything.
I have ticked boxes next to "swiftkey", "google voice typing" and "7notes mazec" in language and input settings.
The only way i have found to use the mazec one is to set it as default input method, but then I have to go back into settings
after I have used it to set swiftkey back as default.
When tap on text entry box a little keyboard icon should appear in notification bar. Swipe down and you should see option to change input method

Great tip, thanks
I really missed the Note 2 default of long pressing the menu key to invoke Google search. Here's the workaround I've been using today that I think is kind of cool:
Make sure S-Voice is enabled on your device. In the S-Voice app, use Menu>Settings to enable double tapping the home key to activate S-Voice. Also handy to set the "Hello Galaxy" command to wake the device into S-Voice.
Activate S-Voice by double tapping the home key, or saying "Hello Galaxy" while the device is asleep.
Once S-Voice is listening, say "Open Google".
Once Google search is open, you can say "Ok Google" as normal.
This sounds more involved than it actually is, and I now feel I have a way to get fast access to my preferred voice assistant again.

You can use wanam to remap hardware keys. So you can actually make it open Google now directly

Not rooted. Should probably have mentioned that.

Also should mention that, unlike remapping the buttons, this technique gives you a way to kind of "bootstrap" yourself using voice alone from screen off right into google now with the mic active.

Another option is to use a custom launcher. Apex allows you to bring up Google now with the menu key. Don't know how you feel about ditching touch wiz though.

1. Go to app S Voice, enable home key to activate S Voice.
2. Go to app info for S Voice, clear defaults.
3. Go to your touchwiz home screen and double click your home button, it should ask to set default for the search.
4. Select Google and put always.
I have google as my default this way..

Hmm. I would love for mine to work that way, but when I go into the app info for S Voice, the button to clear defaults is disabled and it says no defaults are set.
I do have the option within S Voice set to activate S Voice when double tapping the home key, and that is working.
When I posted this, I assumed everyone not rooted had the same situation as me, where there was simply no way to have anything but S Voice be the default for a home key double tap.
Seems that's not the case, though I can't imagine why.

Unfortunately, this does not work for me. When I go into S-Voice, the home key option is already enabled. The option to "clear defaults" is grayed out in the App Manager. Disabling and re-enabling the home key in S-Voice does nothing. Same with clearing all S-Voice data in the App Manager.

Same here. Also, when I disable S-Voice entirely using the App Manager, I still don't get an option to set the home key double click to Google Now.
Use this app

I can confirm that this works. If you hold the menu key for a short period, Google Now pops up and if you hold it longer S Finder pops up.
i agree with gator, home2 is the best at that. i have used it for about a yr or so and its flawless
Is there a way shorten the delay on the stock keyboard? I'm rooted.
Thanks!
Sent from my SM-G900T using Tapatalk
I'm not sure what you mean by shorten delay, if it is input or showing the keyboard itself. But you might want to try the developer option. Go to the setting menu and open "About Device". Touch "Build Version" a couple of times. The Developer Option will now be accessible in your settings menu. There's a setting to enable/disable animation and others, set them to "0".

I meant the long press delay; the time you hold down a keyboard key to get the secondary key.
Wouldn't shortening the delay cause more mispresses? You would potentially accidentally trigger the long press when you didn't meant to.

Does anybody know where i can get or how i can change my Samsung keyboard so that the key have the alternate characters on them? As an example, on Omega rom i ran on the S5, the M key on the keybaord had a little ? mark on it, if i long pressed it, the ? would pop up, on my Note 4 stock W8 keyboard, the M key has nothing, when i long press on it, it doesnt do anything. I have to long press the . key to show up all the alternate characters.
Anybody?

That symbol can be achieved from root as long as I remember.
That's one bad of samsung keyboard, they don't enable symbol with long press.
If you're rooted try flashing the echoerom zip file over it. Hes loaded the keyboard with alt symbols on top and it works beautifully

I don't want to flash echo rom, I'm waiting for omega. But I downloaded the rom and tried to extract the keyboard apk but can't find it in app or private_app folder. Anybody know where it's found or what name it has?

Any help please??
If you go into the settings on the stock keyboard, you can set 'My hot keys'.
Assign pretty much anything to the number keys. Only downside, you'll have to remember what you set as there is no reference on the keyboard.

Don't have that on my keyboard. You would know where the keyboard apk is hiding in a rom wouldn't you? As of now, I'm back on SwiftKey but I don't like it as much as I keep typing the . Instead of a space
