Lightbulb [App] Samsung Keyboard from Touchwiz for CyanogenMod ROMs

This app was initially ported by MadTeam's member DSM. It just needed a twist to make the 3x4 portrait mode work... and I found it!

It works a 99% ok, but...

Known bugs:
  • Low Importance:
    1. Description: Some (Ok) | (Cancel) labels don't show up in buttons.
      Workaround: Left button is OK, right button is Cancel
  • Medium Importance:
    None.
  • High Importance:
    None so far. Neat!

Important Information:

Languages included in this release are:
  • Spanish
  • Portuguese
  • English (US)
  • English (UK)
  • Italian

The APK was tested in many CM7.2 ROMs. Squadzone's, and Unnofficial CM7.2 (haven't tried the official nightlies but it should work too). Included dragnan's fix from this post. He fixed the "add word makes the app FC bug"!! Thanks!!

The APK is reported to work in CM10 too so it probably works in all CM versions. I haven't tested myself yet.

Attached file to post so it won't die.

Installation:

You can download the zip file from the link below and apply via Clockworkmod... and that's about it! Then all you have to do is activate the Samsung Keyboard in your settings and you're good to go! Hope it works for all of you and post back with your feedback!

Please vote in the poll, I can't promise I'll be able to do it but I can promise that I will try my best! First I'll try to get rid of the bugs in this app and then I plan on moving on to the most voted app in the poll, so your feedback is important! <-- Probably won't have the time to do this in a looong time, sorry

Nice tread, but keep in mind that this belongs to themes and apps forums, not development forums...

Cheers

I've been using Samsung Keypad for CM7 from Parasmi, any difference from yours ? Haven't tested yours though, I have some problems with superuser (all apps got auto-denied instantly), but Iwill do in other time.

I've checked parasmi's emanoN ROM thread and found only Skype and AOSP Gingerbread keyboard (which is default in CyanogenMod 7) I have not found the Samsung keyboard that comes with stock Touchwiz phones. That is one of the reasons I created this thread. If I'm mistaken please point me to the file or the thread where the keyboard you are refering about is located so I can check it out.
I've also added some screenshots in OP of the ported Keyboard to clarify.

Root shouldn't be neccessary. Simply apply the zip via ClockworkMod and you're good to go.

You can try but the keyboard apps from Froyo and GB are different so I'm not sure it will work. You need 3 files that look like this:

phonepad_XX.kdb
qwerty_XX.kdb
Samsung_400_XXlsUN_xt9.ldb

where XX is the two letter code for serbian (i.e. "es" for spanish, "en" for english, etc).

You should paste the three files inside the /system/T9DB folder, give them the same permissions as the other files and then select Serbian language in the options.

I don't know which is the code for serbian but if you tell me I can try help you find the GB version. Most likely it would be found in a branded firmware from your country

Here's parasmi thread on samsung keypad :

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1244308

I hope you didn't get me wrong, I was just asking if there's any difference.

Anyway do we need to include twframework.jar too ?
