Is there one?
The google keyboard doesn't have the number row and keyboards from the app store I don't like.

They all have it, but I noticed you also have auto replacement off, just like me. I still didn't figure out how to type words that are not in dictionary, pretty much couldn't input most of the names of programs I was searching for in play store, for example program names like ARC, AppOps, ES explorer impossible to type in without being changed by auto correct, had to turn it off.
BTW, I also didn't like other keyboards, for example contrary to what somebody posted in one of the forums, when I installed swiftkeyboard, it still didn't have number row on top, maybe missed it in settings.

On the Samsung keyboard, to type words that are not in the dictionary is actually easy and I just recently figured it out myself. First you need to turn Auto Replacement on. For a non common word that isn't in the dictionary, instead of swiping, just type out the letters one at a time. Then instead of hitting the space bar to go to the next word, hit the right arrow symbol above the number 1 and 2 keys. This takes the letters as you typed them instead of trying to auto correct them. This right arrow symbol is only displayed when Auto Replacement is turned on.

Hope this helps...

Do you have Wanam x posed module installed? I have found that if u enable the x posed module the auto replacement option disappears. I have since reinstalled my rom and use gravity box module until they fix the xposed module

Yeah unfortunately Wanam is the reason your auto correct option in the Samsung keyboard is gone . I posted the problem on the Wanam forum. I can't for the life of me figure out why it's causing it because there's no settings in Wanam that I can see that interfere with the keyboard auto correct. I reinstalled and reinstalled and every time after I install Wanam module it's gone :confused:
Hope it gets fixed soon

I uninstalled wanam and the auto replacement did not come back.

Yes unfortunately it does something to the system that does not get removed even after uninstalling wanam. Only way I got it to work again is by re flashing your rom. Believe me I've done trial and error and re flashed my rom about 5 times. Each time if I install Wanam the auto correct goes away

I was having the same issue and after reading through this thread I poked around the xml file mentioned there and changed the
Code:
<CscFeature_Sip_DisableAutoCorrection>false</CscFeature_Sip_DisableAutoCorrection>
line from "true" to "false" and got my spacebar/autocomplete functionality back -- Hope this helps :)
