Still the same problem....Only voice input....no keyboard.....

Go into settings then input, uncheck voice input and then try to type something. Once you can type, you can go back and check voice input or leave it off. I never use voice input anyway

I think ProBam is not samsung based rom.

Thanks for your answer. I have read that thread already and have issues with it, for example :

- .line 501 doesn't exist in PointerTracker.smali (XXDMF2 and XXDMG1 or even your mod of the ZSDMA6 for that matter), should I add it and where?
- The edits in SwiftkeyQwertyLatinInputModule.smali made the apk not compile in apktool.

Then I did the complete-noob-shot-in-the-dark move and used your 2 smali files from said mod, it compiled with lots of warnings/errors, flashed the resulting apk and ... it worked lol, The system fonts option has been lost though (where is that located by the way)

It would be great if you pointed me to the right direction if that's not too much to ask :)

EDIT: Honest question: I am not anything close to a programmer, I like fiddling with things on my PC (like registry hacks, ini files ...) and I'd love to make my own mods, so I guess my question is can I do this or am I in over my head lol

In pointertracker.smali, you should be able to find three entries for 1f4. Just change it to c8.

For system font, find common/language (there are 2 smalis file with the name "language". Copy both smalis from my mod to yours.

Androssama, you're a Noob genius! :) As is Arsaw, of course, and eclipxe and everyone else here! :)

I'm also running the N7100 DDDMG1 version, so I don't think any of the other files work properly and I spent hours trying to make it work (but something about cond_4 and cond_3 seemed to be giving errors in my APK (I even tried even more Noob shots in the dark by changing them to cond_20 and cond_21, but that just crashed the keyboard).

Anyway, finally got it to work by just copying Arsaw's original SwiftkeyQwertyLatinInputModule.smali , as suggested by Androssame, and it worked. Magic! This keyboard is almost better than Swiftkey, I think... Stupid Samsung for disabling their spacebar...

I've attached the new APK file, but I'm not sure whether it will work for others (or if there's a font problem - what was the issue Androssama?).

Not sure if there are any drawbacks with using this hack, rather than modding the MG1 files properly? Do we use some tiny firmware upgrade functionality, or not really (I assume MG1 is a newer version than MA1, for example).

Cheers all!

Ps: Any other newbies struggling with extracting the APK files, etc, I found this is a useful guide:

You'll also need to deodex your original files (in other words, combining the SamsungIME.apk and .odex files into one) - Universal Deodexer I found quite useful there.
