Am I the only one annoyed by the fact that the stock keyboard doesn't fill in suggestions when you press the spacebar? I have typos all the time that should have been corrected, but the keyboard doesn't fill in corrected words automatically. I love the stock keyboard except for this one issue. I might have to try Swiftkey or Thumb Keyboard (I bought both of them before I got the Note 10.1).
There is a thread for the Galaxy Note 2 about a hacked keyboard that DOES do the corrections automatically. I installed it on my phone and it works great - I just wish there was a version for the Note 10.1.

A little search in this forum would have got your the answer.

Hi everyone.
The samsung keyboard is awesome because it lets you change into 3 different modes but the htc one s keyboard has better functionality, arrow keys, and has better automatic spelling corrections than the samsung keyboard on the note 10.1.
I'd like to basically take the software keyboard from the htc one s, add the three different modes from the note 10.1 keyboard, and be able to use this modified keyboard on our note 10.1s.
How would i go about creating such a keyboard, using pieces from the htc one s keyboard and the note 10.1 keyboard?
Please give me suggestions on how i can create it.
I have the drive, the time, and the determination to tackle such a project, but lack the skills To efficiently create this.
Please point me in the right direction.
Once this project is done, i will gladly share this keyboard with everyone.
I am picking up a 10.1 and would like to run CM on it. The only thing that I think I will miss the lack of handwriting recognition. Is there an app that will replace this functionality for me. Thanks.
There are some keyboards apps like swype which have pen input.
There is a ported keyboard ' LG keyboard ' which supports pen input..
I have tested many of them but none of them are even close to what samsung keyboard gives.. For pen input , samsung is the best and I was surprised how accurate it was then i first used it.
However no one has been able to port samsung keyboard to asop roms yet.
Hi -
I use Swiftkey on a regular basis as that was always the only keyboard that could keep up with the way I type, however since they got rid of the "rapid typing" feature with version 4.0 I've been looking for other options.
I use two languages interchangeably (english and spanish) and have always liked how Swiftkey allowed me to type in either language without having to toggle to that particular language, either through a dedicated key (EN or SP) or by sliding my thumb across the space bar, both of which I find annoying. But I haven't been able to find another keyboard that let's me use either language "on the fly" - is there a decent one out there? I feel like I've tried them all.

hello, how come swipe does not work for symbolic and numeric keys?
I also found that swpie does not work when running two apps side by side. Is this a bug?
Which two apps, which one is active and what style of keyboard are you using at the time?
As for symbols, I've never done swiping when using symbols so I have no idea. My first reaction to your initial question was "Is swipe using symbols even supposed to work at all? Given that swipe is a form of predictive text input how would the keyboard predict anything if you're not spelling words since it's all symbols?"
I can't use Swpie on numeric keys as well. Why swipe needs to be predictive? I use Samsung's virtual keyboard which came with the Note Pro? I don't remember the two apps. Will let you know latter.

I'm going to go out on a limb here because I primarily use stock keyboards on my Nexus 4 and this tablet. It's been a few months since I've used other keyboards such as Swiftkey which also supports swipe input . . . In any event my understanding of swipe input based on the keyboards that I have used is this: the keyboard application analyzes the locations that your finger is stopping at and the directions in which your finger moves from each stopping point in order to predict the word that you are attempting to spell. The word that you are attempting to spell has to be in the dictionary of the language you have the keyboard application set to. If it isn't, the keyboard will not recognize the word and will therefore not predict it.
As an example; on both my phone and my Note Pro I have the keyboard language is set to English US. If I attempt to swipe the letters X-Y-L-E-C on the keyboard, which is just jibberish and not a real word in the english dictionary, the keyboard will not recognize this swipe pattern as a word and will attempt to predict something completely different (my tablet writes the word "clef" instead).
So what I'm saying is, how would the keyboard application know to string together a particular order of special characters?
Your answer is likely to be that it should know based upon where you pause with your fingers and you're right except that this isn't exactly how swipe was designed. Swipe is meant to allow you to minimize how long you need to pause. If you start at the letter T, swipe down rapidly to H and rapidly change direction towards E you need not stop exactly on the E key in order to have the keyboard predict the word "THE".
Thanks. I am using the stock Samsung virtual keyboard (US English) that came with the PRO 12.2. Trying to input things like muzzy996 using swipe does not work.
Yeah, it's working as intended.
What irritates me about the stock keyboard is unlike Swiftkey it does not seem to allow for addition of a word into the dictionary easily and there is no obvious way to manage the dictionary.
This is really bothersome for me because in my writing for work I often use technical terms that are not in the default dictionary and I use these terms frequently in documents or emails. The predictive nature of the keyboard does not seem to learn my frequently typed words well at all.
I've just switched back to Swiftkey and will probably try using that for a bit to see if I like it more than the stock keyboard.
Which version of SwiftKey of you use? Mine is SwiftKey Tablet 4.4.6.275. Swipe (called flow in SwiftKey) does not work. It seems that they have version 4. Worth to upgrade?
I was using version 4.4.6.275. I believe they unified versions now, I'm not using the one for tablets (which I believe is now marked as legacy in the play store). In any case I have switched back to stock. SwiftKey is buggy when multi window is used. Often times the keyboard vanishes when typing in a window. Hopefully they fix this but I'm not sure when they will, I see posts about it in their support website that are a few months old.
