Here you go, Guys - the Galaxy NOTE 8 Keyboard in all its awesome glory fully working on Galaxy Note N7000 at 213 dpi and below (Phablet & Tablet UI). I have fully tested it with the English language and qwerty layout and all works fine (just one minor bug - key tap sound causes FC when enabled so you have to disable it in Language and Input Settings). It is fast with awesome HANDWRITING RECOGNITION (powered by Vision Objects), has Predictive and Swype-like functionality (powered by Swiftkey) with many languages to choose from. Perfectly-fitting layouts both in Portrait and Landscape mode. It has 3 Layouts - normal, floating and split. Personally, I only use the handwriting functionality so whether the 3 layouts are of any use to you is a matter of personal preference.

As I said, I have only tested it with the English language (qwerty) so I dont know if there are any issues with other languages. I have tested it with LSZ-based ROM so I am not sure if there are any issues with other JB versions.

How to Install:

Important: Make a backup.

1. Make sure you have an alternative keyboard - just a fallback in case of FC.

DOWNLOAD

2. Flash thru Recovery and Reboot.
3. Test it. If it FC then go to Settings>Languages and Input>Samsung Keyboard Settings>Advanced and disable Key Tap Sound (refer to photo below).
4. Enjoy.

TIP: To activate the 3-layouts, PINCH IN on the keyboard with TWO Fingers and the layout selection will come out.


THANKS to my fellow xda-ers who tested it prior to release.

Nothing there just a few other apps.
Remember this keyboard only works on 213 dpi.
I think you didn't flash it properly.I flashed it on Rocket Rom and it works for me. You have to activate it in settings, the only problem I had was the rocket rom settings didn't support 213 dpi so I just pushed this settings to APP folder and then changed dpi to 213 by editing build.prop then reboot. I also used TW launched which supports 213 dpi from other thread of xperiacle here and cleared the cash in applications manager.

Make sure you all have enough space in system before installation. I was already on eybees lsz deodex first release with setting from other Note 8 thread the one with reading mode panel.

Use rom tool box lite to change lcd density to 213.
