I just rooted to 4.4.2 vinar and have 2 issues. One. The s pen no longer works. The air command does not appear when the pen is pulled out nor does anything happen like it usually makes a sound. The pen displays a cursor over the screen though. The second issue is the "Ok google" feature stopped working. It was working great when I first rooted, but now it's not working at all. It works, but not the ok google, when you speak it. How do i fix these?

Vanir is AOSP. All Samsung software/features do not work since you are not on a TouchWiz ROM. Not sure if Vanir comes with two different launchers like some other AOSP ROM. You may now be using the one that doesn't have the OK, Google feature. Clear the default for the launcher or hit the Home button and select Launcher, not launcher3.
As a sidenote, you 'flashed' Vanir, not rooted.

Sorry, I'm not too in depth with the terms. I'm using the "launcher" not launcher 3. Also, I do have the one that has the ok Google feature because it was working for me, for some reason it just stopped working... If I could get the ok Google feature to work as well as the air commands, I'd be happy. Is that possible to do with another rom maybe? I saw that there is an official 4.4 update coming OTA in the next week or so. Would I be best just unroot ING and going with that? My phone is rooted.
No problem with terms. We all here have been a noob at one point. You can try to do a factory reset to see if that fixes your issue. Or reflash the Vanir ROM Never take OTA if you want to keep flashing custom ROMs. Let the devs here do their magic in bring a custom 4.4 TW ROM. Also look in the general section where someone post some apps to simulate the Spen features.

Well I purchased a couple of i927r's from newegg, got them updated to ICS, rooted. Decided to go with JB rootbox as it seemed to be what I wanted, simple, effective. Just got both phones activated on ST recently, so far been liking them. But a couple issues I am having with them are primarily related to the digital keyboard. I don't really plan on using the physical keyboard much...the phone was at the right price so I guess it's there if I need to use it. But whenever I try to use the digital keyboard for mms, email, searching I hit one letter and it closes. If you keep tapping the word, the keyboard will come back up, but eventually closing again, usually a few keystrokes later.
Both phones do this, both have the most recent rootbox update via goomanager and teamwin. I would post this in the dev thread, but alas I do not have enough posts to. I am searching, but I can't seem to find an answer. I do like the stock digital keyboard, maybe I should try a different one? Anyone else have this issue? The physical keyboard is okay, but I prefer the digital one even on the smaller screen. Thanks for your time.
Have you tried different keyboards.just saying you can try Swype? Or another from the market and see if it still does it.

The default keyboard crashes when used. It is recommended that a third party keyboard is used until the bug is resolved. There's a fair number available on the play store. Avoid any that are directly based on the jelly bean keyboard
This is based on the work from the Original thread and the original thread link from that post. All I did was package it into an Xposed module so you don't need to flash a particular version to get the short delay. I have only tested this on the international stock odexed ROM, but it should work on any ROM with the stock Samsung keyboard. If it doesn't work, please send me a copy of /data/xposed/debug.log. It's super simple, so I don't expect problems. I'm running the multi-DPI keyboard mod as well, and it works fine.
Installation is like any Xposed module, so see the Xposed thread for info on how to use it. Once installed, it should show up as a module in the Xposed installer app. Just check the box to enable it and reboot. You should be good to go after the boot is complete. Please be sure your Xposed install is working. Try using one of the other mods to make sure before reporting bugs with this module. The setup is pretty simple, but there are a few steps to getting it going. Once I get some reports that it's working, I'll post the source to github. I just don't want to push out source that doesn't work for anyone other than me.
I use that module for Xposed in my Galaxy S4, and I have a question: is that mod correctly work on another device than Galaxy Note II? In my phone there is no autocorrection, and delay is not short. Is any possibility to further decrease the time?

I have only tested it on a Note2 and Note3. It worked for the Note3 without any changes. The S4 may well use a different keyboard app as the Note keyboard has a number of options for the larger screen. This mod never did anything with auto-correct, only the keyboard long-press delay. Going much lower will break some other features, or just make them really hard to use.
Trying it now on my note 2, key board feels snappier but I'm still testing it, question if I ever want to go back to original, what arte the steps to go back?

Exactly.
Make sure you reboot after disabling, like all xposed modules.

You will need to edit the source code and rebuild the module as I didn't think anyone would want to configure it like that. See the link below for the source.
I tried this on my Galaxy Note 3, and now the keyboard is missing the shortcuts. Anyway to get the shortcuts back on my keyboard? I already uninstalled this tweak, and I tried a factory data reset, and the Samsung keyboard still has no shortcuts.

This mod doesn't change anything I can think of that would affect that. I tested it on a TMO US Note3 with stock software and it worked fine. Modded ROMs might have compatibility issues with it as they may have changed the code I'm taking over. As I understand it, the shortcuts are handled by CSC settings. Have you recently installed anything that could mess with those? A data wipe won't affect CSC, as it lives on the system partition. I believe there was an issue similar to this with Wannam breaking wifi calling due to CSC mods, as one example. Even an update to another app could have done it. It's hard to say.
If you want to get it back to stock, the only way I can think of would be to restore the stock CSC. The simplest way would be to wipe system and re-flash the ROM. Then install things one at a time to look for what might be messing with CSC settings.
The code is about as simple as an Xposed module can be, it takes over one method in the keyboard class and tells it to use a shorter delay. The original method is a one-liner, as is mine. It's literally "return 200;".
Here's a direct link to the code: https://github.com/travistabbal/Xpo...SamsungKeyboardShortDelay/ShortDelayMain.java
I have the At&t Note 3, so I don't have any custom roms. The only other app I have is Wanam Xposed and the only thing I have enabled on Wanam is the flashlight on the lock screen. Before I installed this tweak I had the shortcuts on my keyboard, after I installed it and rebooted my phone the shortcuts were gone. It feels weird without them, I'm so used to them being there. I rooted my phone with Kingo root, and I wouldn't know how to flash to the stock rom. Please help.

If you disabled/uninstalled this mod, and rebooted, it's no longer there. It makes no persistent changes to the system. If Wanam updated before you rebooted, that could do it. That one does modify CSC files. I have no idea if that is what happened in your case or not. I'm afraid that I can't be much more help directly as I don't have an ATT N3 to test on. The best advice I can give is to hit the ATT N3 Q&A forum and post there about your issue. Perhaps someone can send you a backup of their CSC files? Or someone may have run into the same thing and know the cause. I would be VERY shocked if this little mod had anything to do with it though. It's only a few steps away from "Hello World".
Wanam is what's breaking the symbols. There's a setting to turn them off, and it's "on" by default.
Turning it off doesn't always make the symbols come back. But after a few reboots they will be there. I had the same problem before I even found your .apk
And updated version would be great where I can pick my own milliseconds.. I'm a 128ms kinda guy

Thank you so much for saying this. I have a Verizon Note 3 but I was having this issue on a new ROM and I thought I had some weird junky modified keyboard because I didn't even realize it was a Wanam option. It was driving me insane. Somehow I found your post in a search and I'm glad I did! I actually couldn't get them to come back after a few reboots but uninstalled Wanam with the symbols turned on, reinstalled, rebooted, and THEN they came back.
This is nice! I have another question too if anyone can answer me. I flashed the root 4.3 stock odin style onto my note 2. After rebooting brand new and checking my samsung keyboard settings, it showed having the auto replace option there which is good for me. After a while though i noticed that it would not replace my words anymore and checked the keyboard settings and the auto replace was gone!! Anyone know what may have happened?
ok so this is awkward.... seems google has released the new Google Search and Google Experience Launcher for all handsets running 4.1 and higher..... with Google ripping the forefront of KitKat out why move to it?
Lets get a list going as to what KitKat brings to the table behind the scenes....
1)better memory managment
2)Smoother UI experience(butter+)
3)built in printer support API!!! I love printing from my phone now!
For those that want to try the new Search and Google Experience Launcher here are the links.
Download Google Search 3.1.8 APK
Download Google Experience Launcher APK
yes this turns on "Ok Google" from the launcher and also allows Google Search to talk/ask questions back to you.
I still think we need KitKat as I have been running it and it is very smooth and seems to be snappier than the stock rom.
FYI the launcher will NOT work on our stock roms!!!
It is working on other phones with 4.1 but not our phone and stock rom(with stock kernel). You can use some modded 4.1 stock roms that replace the kernel. As I believe it is a kernel based issue there will likely never be a fix as no-one is going to put in the time or effort.
Well, the Launcher still needs to be side loaded even after the Search App updates, so it is a little different there. I like having hangouts handle sms. I also like the little things like the touch sounds and such. All of these things can be emulated, but it still takes work and a little knowledge to get a kit kat experience on a different stock rom.

This is true but the launcher will be on the play store and it has been reported that a card in now will popup asking if you want it.
For a stock rom you get the stability over most other roms but I must say KK on ours has been a really big surprise.
I sideloaded the new now on KK and the feedback is pretty sweet, no more hunting to find the right number to txt or call it will ask you and you simply talk back.
For me it's all about consistency in the experience. It drives me crazy to see a stock dialer or stock messaging app when I am trying to create an AOSP experience. That's why I generally go for AOSP based ROMS. It's just jarring to have the settings menu come up with a white background. OCD

opppsss forgot to add that blurb. The launcher doesn't work on the LG OG stock roms. other 4.1 roms do work so it has something to do with the stock rom.
I'll add that in. The new Google search(Google Now) should be fine.
OP updated!!!!
Launcher didn't work for me on optimus 4.6 the OK Google feature worked but when I tried to add the search widget, OK Google went away. I don't know how to get it back yet either
Edit: turns out it went away cause I switched the language. OK Google command now works again

Just seen that there is an update for the english language pack that needs to be installed.
slid left to Google Now
scroll to the bottom
hit the three dots
select settings
select voice
select offline speech recognition
for those in the US ensure that English shows up and it is vers 28. For all others ensure you have downloaded your language.
BTW KitKat ROM users... this is NOT for you as it is all setup!

I recently updated to the latest bootloader and 5.1.1 Touchwiz. I'm having a rough time without xposed and am considering changing to AOSP and scrapping Touchwiz so I can get my Xposed customizations back.
For anyone who has made this move, is there anything significant you lose by scrapping Touchwiz or any reason I should continue waiting?

No fingerprint scanner, S-Pen features, basically all Galaxy line features lost and that's about it. I've had annoying times where SMS/MMS wouldn't go through and I had to keep doing stuff to make it go back. So if you like a Note 4 for its gimmicky features, I wouldn't go to AOSP. It doesn't hurt to try for a day though.

I took your suggestion and tried AOSP via CM12. I like the changes in the overall UI since the last time I ran CM on a previous device, but I would miss the fingerprint scanner for the screen lock. The google camera that came when I flashed the Gapps (tk_gapps-stock-5.1.1-20150816b-signed.zip) doesn't play nicely with CM12. "Could not connect to camera" and several seconds for the app to open when it does decide to open, and then if you decide to take a second photo it's crash city. I guess I'll go back to touchwiz, but I'm really gonna miss my xposed

People have fixed the problem with the camera by uninstalling the google camera and install it via Google Play Store. Android 6/Marshmallow is supposed to have native fingerprint support.

Cool, also everytime any app attempted to access GPS the app would crash, the UI would crash and only the wallpaper was visible. Buttons went unresponsive and required a reboot. This happened with Maps and with the chrome browser when it tried to access GPS.
Back to touchwiz we go...
Hi,
My phone's rooted, using the ROM that came with root. I haven't had too many problems with it since rooting, but I've noticed that nothing is rotating. I have Screen Rotation turned on and have even shut it off and turned it on a few times. It hasn't made a difference. I noticed it when I was trying to look at pictures taken in landscape using gallery. They do not rotate. Then I went in to other apps and none of them are rotating either.
Any ideas on how this can be fixed? Since rooting it, I've been keeping my phone to minimal apps. I really don't have much installed.
Try this thread. It worked for me but I think I had to use a different version of the file "libgnustl_shared.so" that it links to.

Im not gonna lie, i am lost ! I cant remeber what rom this is in reference too. Hmmm touchwiz launcher must be modest rom jasmine rom paulpizz rom or nseven . Lets go with modest (its the most common)while u shouldnt need xposed (this is basic)But i beleive wanam touchwiz module has the options you are missing built into it. alternately you coyld grab a third party rotation control app from the play store or just change launchers. If your heart is set on touchwiz i beleive xposed is your best bet

I don't remember, either. It is whatever came with stuff for rooting 5.1.1. It's been ok for the most part. The only two issues I've had with it are the keyboard missing all of the punctuation and this rotating issue. I'm using Nova for the launcher, but the rotation doesn't work on touchwiz either. I'm thinking of moving to the Note 8, when it comes out, so this might not be something that I have to worry about (be annoyed about) for much longer.
I'll have to look up that wanam touchwiz module that you speak of.
