This is not my work I will not support or post links to anything but the original post.

While browsing through countless threads one thing I see often is requests for samsungs keyboard on aosp roms. Well that most likely won't happen but this just might be what you are looking for. They are from the lg lineup. One is a simple install apk the other requires a build.prop mod.

Edit: If the LG2 version does not install try this modded one.

Hacker's keyboard gives you a full keyboard, including function keys (F1, F2, etc.), escape, arrow keys (very useful when fixing mistakes in emails and texts.

It's also superb for DOS Box and other emulators. There are dictionaries for most languages. Duolingo takes great advantage of these dictionaries. The auto word suggestions speed up your typing and learning, by also introducing words with similar spelling not actually a part of the lesson.

Not trying to hijack the thread. Just stating my opinion on an alternative keyboard.

Thanks. I have used it before and it was pretty cool. But it does not have the handwriting mode.

Is the handwriting mode anything like Myscript Calculator?

I mean the one hand setting for Samsung kb on touch wiz.

Anyway the hand writing is good as well.

Edited found out needed to change the build.prop. one have working now.

I'm on liquid and I thought I was tired of the Google keypad...mainly for lacking the number row.
I tried swift key...which was OK. Extremely similar to go keyboard. Which is ok and I like the theme ability.
Then I tried the LG key board....
I ran back to the Google keyboard...I despise that lg keyboard. And how on earth do they justify it being a 57MB app??????? I've never liked lg keyboards that much though. Always seem to lag. Even going back to non smart phones.

Hey Jlmancuso, I got the LG G3 kb working mostly ok except the handwriting part. Whenever I try to use handwriting it says that it needs to download something and I select English but it never downloads it. Can you let me know how you got that working? Thanks.

What rom are you using it on? I have been busy working on TW 4.4.2 which does not work with the keyboards. When I put it on my aosp rom it worked without any issues. I will have to install the rom you are using and see what I can figure out.

The keyboard works besides handwriting? If so I think I can help you out? From the looks of it you are on 2.3 S5-FEAT.
