Is there any way of getting the pro keyboard to work on cm12. I'm using the samsung note 2014 tablet
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Could be difficult, since it's a Samsung System App which won't work on other ROMs, especially CM.

Xposed frameworks are awesome, and together with xda search, I've found ways to add on screen keys and map them as I want, but I couldn't find any method or module that would allow me to adjust and properly space the on screen navigation softkeys. See my attached screen shot.

How did you manage to enable the soft keys?

I have the kit kat P605XXUCNF2 firmware, rooted with towelroot, and i have not any luck enabling them.

Using the qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 when editing the build.prop did not do anything

Answering myself, there was a conflict with xposed 3dotmod. Removed it from xposed modules and voila! Software keys

Anyone tested this on lollipop? Or can we port the lollipop note pro keyboard for us note 10.1 2014 users?

[E] I tried the note pro keyboard from kitkat on my lollipop 10.1 and that gave me errors when trying to use the keyboard. So these mods won't work on lollipop. I'm trying to get my hands on a note 12.2 keyboard from lollipop right now. Asked in their forum but if any of you have a 12.2 it would be highly appreciated if you could extract the

SamsungIME.apk

from system/app/SamsungIME/

Cheers

    Hello everyone ! :)

    For those of you who are on KitKat and want the Note Pro Keyboard app... here it is!

    Root needed:
    Download the apk and place it on your tablet ;)
    I have used ES File Explorer with root option
    You have to mount /system as RW
    1) Make a backup of your current Samsung Keyboard with TitaniumBackup
    OR rename it under /system/app from SamsungIME.apk to SamsungIME.apk.bak
    2) Rename SamsungIME.odex to SamsungIME.odex.bak
    3) Delete SamsungIME.apk under /system/app
    4) Copy the new SamsungIME.apk to /system/app
    5) Change the permission of SamsungIME.apk to rw-r--r-- or 644
    6) Reboot :)

    DOWNLOAD at the end of the OP
    If you have problems or ForceClose then it is a good idea to install the GoogleKeyboard and try again

    I have attached a ScreenShot to show you how it looks on my SM-P600 ;)

    The one above is in the SamsungIME.apk.zip attached.

    That one is in the SamsungIME.apk_Note Pro12.2.zip Attachement. Hope you like it.

    Maybe some of you want to use the menue button to work as a RecentApps Button?
    1) Use an Root Explorer to navigate to /system/usr/keylayout/Generic.kl
    2)Edit line 139 and change "MENU" to "APP_SWITCH"
    3)Save the file and then reboot. now you have a recent apps softkey

    Not needed anymore (Samsung included it in the 4.4.2 US Update, only for those of us who use the Columbian Firmware:
    Do you want an alternative RecentApps Screen? Try this:

    Root needed:
    If someone wants to change the Recent Apps screen (because I think the new one looks not nice) you can change it by changing the following lines in build.prop to "ro.product.name=viennaltexx" and "ro.product.device=viennalte"
    "ro.product.model=SM-P905". I have used a build prop editor from the playstore. It needs a reboot.
    It will look like this

    Also you will be able to download hancom office from the Samsung App Store.

    Cant find hancom office in the samsung store even after editing my build prop.
    Because the build prop's posted here are not really correct.

    Use these:
    Code:
    ro.product.model=SM-P905
    ro.product.brand=samsung
    ro.product.name=viennaltexx
    ro.product.device=viennalte

    You beat me to it! I just downloaded the system dump from the note pro to extract the keyboard.

    I also got the recent apps screen working as well and it's awesome. I disabled the capacitive buttons though so I can use the tablet in portrait mode without accidentally pressing one of the capacitive buttons, what I do is use GMD Gesture control as it makes it easier. I disabled all the built in gestures and enabled 3 user gestures. A swipe down with 3 fingers registers as a back button press, swipe up with 4 fingers brings up the recent apps menu and a 4 finger pinch registers as a home button press. I used xposed to enable the 3dot menu in all apps so I don't need a menu button, but as a backup I have LMT installed to get pie with back home recent and menu.

    Just sharing my experiences :)

    Thanks for this guide and taking the time to extract the keyboard!

    Quick update: Check the OP.
    The Note 12.2 keyboard is uploaded. Give it a try if you want to.
    It is fully working as far as I have tested it.
    That means:
    ●Haptic feedback is working
    ●It switches to Handwriting recognition mode when you use the SPen.

    That problem was solved via PM. He had to install an MarketUnlocker as in his country the app stores are restricted. But thank you for helping
