i've searched for a coupe hours tonight, but cant seem to find anything very helpful.
at&t note 2, loaded jellybeer 3.57. love it, except that the stock ROM's "samsung keyboard" is proving difficult to find. it was very easy for me to use, and the extra top row of numbers has become a necessity for me.
is there a way for me to get it back, without rolling back to the original ROM? or another keyboard that has both "swype" style input as well as a 5th row for static number input?
thanks for any help
Kii keyboard in the play store has what you're looking for. There are other aftermarket ones that are very similar also. I think ai keyboard does also.
I can give you some links to just the stock Samsung keyboard if you're still looking for it.
Thanks... AI keyboard does the trick
Downloaded Kii and I love it.

Hi,
I was typing on my note with continous typing on. Then I realized that to insert question mark you need to do 3 steps, so I searched for tips and tricks on swype but not a single one seems to be working. Is it a swype? Are there any tricks for typing on it?
No, it's not Swype. If you want Swype then you have to download the beta version from their website. The Samsung one is not in par with Swype imo, it's not that good. Honestly I've no idea why Swype didn't come by default!

Yes swype is much more better but as I tried it I find out that it's pretty big. It takes almost half a screen and it's complicated for one hand use. Is there anyway to work faster with samsung keyboard? I mean it takes too much time to type question mark or hashtag.
I cannot find this feature for the life of me....When I type on my keyboard (samsung keyboard) it will not auto correct what I type. It gives me the option to go up and pick the word on the predict line or whatever. But I want to be just typing along and if im off a little it will auto correct to the word it thinks im going for without me having to pick it. Bc unfortunately im still kinda bad at typing even with all this real estate.

This is a short coming of the Samsung KB. It has suggestion but not the auto correction you seek. I suggest the stock jellybean KB. Then switch to the Samsung only if you wish to use the handwriting feature with the S Pen.

Try the swiftkey flow beta (google it). It does swype and autocorrect.

I just wish the swift flow had numbers on top like the samsung keyboard.
Doesnt seem to be a solution exactly as you seek. You'll probably just have to get another keyboard off of the play store, and hope for the best when an update comes out.
Hey All,
Jelly Beer's 4.2.2 update worked great on my Samsung S3. However, I went out and purchased a new Note 2 GT-N7100 T-Mobile T889. I love the phone. The only problem is that I got used to the keyboard that the guys included in with Jelly Beer 4.2.2 update. In the Input settings, the keyboard is listed as Android keyboard (AOSP). That's the keyboard that I want.
The one that came with the Note 2 is Samsung's own and it's awful. Yes, yes, yes, I've installed just about every other keyboard out there. I've purchased the paid versions and all. Still, nothing does the job as well as the keyboard AOSP. I was literally going to toss the phone because I can't type on it. Then I started to use the gesture part of it, and I'm getting used to that. However, I still want the AOSP one. I've looked all over in the Play store and nothing.
Does anyone have the direct link or the actual .apk that I can download?
Would really appreciate it.

I am wanting the same thing.
yes, there is a google keyboard in the app store. but its not the same as AOSP, AOSP has the symbols as long hold on the letter keys. and you can long press the "." and slide to choose ?! and others.
I tried pulling out the aosp keyboard from carbon rom, if I just install it, it works, but no sliding to type (like swype) and if I move it to system/app and set permissions, then reset, it just force closes... so... it kind of works... but I would really like to be able to slide type.
I've been using Swype for a long time and am very used to the way you can correct words by clicking on the S key with the finger on it.
The new Samsung keyboard has a lot of stuff on it that I like, but I really miss that ability. I suspect there is a way to do the same but have been unable to find it yet. The manual only seems to cover the very basics.
Anyone find a good tutorial for editing and using the keyboard?
I have loaded the Swype keyboard for the phone and it works like I am used to but I'd like to use the normal keyboard is possible.
Had the phone now since Tues afternoon, and except for the fact that I have zero time to play with it so far, I love the phone a lot.
Alright guys, anyone here use a different keyboard? I loved the keyboard I had with all the custom roms, it was a lot more user friendly with my fat fingers, is there a way to get that on the Note 4? I end up putting a period where I want to hit the space constantly. Any help or recommendations would be great!!
Omg I would never go back to the Samsung keyboard. I've been using SwiftKey which is now free, for years! I'd never change. Plus it has tons of themes etc
surprisingly i've been pretty happy with the stock keyboard this time around. maybe its because it's pretty quick and lag free, maybe because of the auto handwriting mode when i pull the pen out, maybe because of the number row, but it's pretty solid.
as for using another keyboard from a ROM, i would think most keyboards would work if you just get the apk and install.
my go to keyboard generally is the google keyboard, then swiftkey, then fleksy. all should be on the play store.
I'll have go look through some old roms and find out what was in them, this stock keyboard is getting old, I dislike the numbers at the top, the size of the spacebar, and I don't use the handwriting.
Been using SwiftKey for years on all my phones and tablet. I've tried many keyboards in that time but always return.
If you fancy something different, try minuum. It's a one line keyboard that takes a bit to get used to.

try swype. i think that's what your looking for. its theme-able.
It wasn't Swype. I went and got the google keyboard. Im pretty satisfied with this. It really is a releif being able to type without constantly hitting the wrong buttons
I'm another one using SwiftKey!
I've got to chime in and say I love SwiftKey too!
I started using SwiftKey bc of this thread and holy crap!!! It's amazing!

i switch between google keyboard and stock keyboard.. swiftkey for some reason just isn't that great. It feels slow and i make far more mistakes with swiftkey than with stock keyboard.
