[THEMED] 4.3 MK6 Samsung Keyboard mods

[DoctorQMM]

Compadres, since I recently upgraded my SGN2 from 4.1.2 to 4.3 MK6, thought I'd take a stab at re-theming the Samsung keyboard... sharing for anyone who likes the stock Samsung keyboard (i.e., dedicated number row on main screen) but want some color splash as well. The 4.3 SamsungIME was a bit more challenging to theme than 4.1.2 (about 4 times as many png edits).. but its done, so here you go:

NOTE: this is the stock MK6 SamsungIME.apk (keyboard) pulled from seanzscream's "Sky_Note Air Vanilla F1" rom. BTW, what a masterpiece of rom development by seanz... absolutely best rom I've run in past 3 yrs (feature full, fast, ZERO FCs, and stellar battery life!). If you're still on 4.1.2, I wholeheartedly recommend checking out his work. Keyboard themes tested on "SkyNote Air Vanilla F1 (UCUBMK6) which is based on the latest ATT OTA..

Keyboard themes:
GREY KEYS with 3 color key borders (blue, red, cyan)
BLACK KEYS with 3 color key borders (blue, red, cyan)
BLUE KEYS with 1 color key border (light grey border)
RED KEYS with 1 color key border (silver)

How to Install:
1. make a copy of your current active SamsungIME.apk (found in /system/app ) and put it in a safe place (in case you wish to revert back). Do
NOT move or rename the active file.. just copy it and store in a safe location (i.e., on ExtSD or your computer).
2. make a nandroid / backup of your current rom (just in case)
3. copy desired keyboard flashable zip to your phone
3. boot to custom recovery... wipe cache.... flash keyboard zip (note: the Zip script will also wipe Dalvik Cache)
4. reboot and enjoy

can't confirm as I only have the ATT I317 (currently running SkyNote Air Vanilla MK6 based); however, not sure why it wouldn't. You should copy your current "SamsungIME.apk" (in system/app folder) and put it in a safe place before trying new keyboard... ALSO, do a nandroid backup of your current ROM (data/system partitions) so you can get back to where you are if something goes south.

Going to give it a try and I'll report back

Would this keyboard work on a 4.4 SlimKat rom?
Edit: Can't seem to get it working
