Wow!

I still luv old hackers keyboard , a must have for me !
ps-looks even better on tf700 with transparency
...

I prefer Hackers Keyboard, too. As a writer, the lack of a separate dot, comma and single quote key low me down far too much in pretty much every other keyboard i've tried. also, it allows me to shut of those horrendous suggestions.

I have used hackers keyboard as well but I do a lot of note taking and have got really really good at swype or sliding. So for speed I use the stock android keyboard, which had never happened until last night. Swype beta has been my favorite forever but the auto spacing is not working with the last three builds of cromi.

The keyboard just work fine and easy to setup.
The arc touch is also easy to setup on my ... LG G3, It won't work on Nexus 9.
The mouse point can't be shown and I find it is connected as a physical keyboard.
I am on pure nexus rom and fire-ice kernel , any possible to fix it?

Have you went to "Dev options>Show pointer location" to see if it is connected but not showing up?

Same problem with on my Shield K1 running android 6.0 and the shield 1.1 software.
Arc mouse shows as connected and paired via Bluetooth but is listed as a physical keyboard rather than a pointing device.

Anybody ever get this solved? I'm trying to use my Arc w/ a Nexus 9 - no pointer.

Bluetooth kernel issue
Same goes for my Apple trackpad
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=39665
This issue is a little more than 2 years old and has been addressed but hasn't been fixed so all left is to wait for Google to fix this.
The link I posted is for the Apple trackpad but addresses the Bluetooth issues in general regarding pointer devices hope this cleared things up.

Same issue
Same issue with Lenovo Yoga Flex and Samsung Galaxy s8, the arc touch mouse pairs but does not connect.

This may not be what anyone wants to hear, but it may just be incompatible hardware. I purchased the Arc Mouse SE a few years back and it has seen some things. I recently replaced it with the newer Arc Mouse (that has the touchpad). Decided to dedicate the SE to a Shield TV and was able to connect, but not get a response. Out of curiosity, I paired the newer mouse. It worked flawlessly. It seems the SE just isn't compatible with newer Android as a mouse.

Samsung keyboard app alternative

I like using the stock Samsung keyboard app on the Note 5 because of the SPen detection that switches it to handwriting. However, I hate the fact it does not have swype/flow capability. My S6 had a Samsung keyboard with swype/flow built in as an option (with no handwriting option obviously).
Does anyone know of a suitable alternative? Is there a different keyboard from a previous Note device that works better I could install? I'm waiting for the Note 7 keyboard to leak but have not seen it yet. Not sure if it would have these options. I also tried Google's handwriting keyboard but found that switching between typing and handwriting is a chore.

It does.
With the on-screen keyboard visible, hold down on the button to the right of the "Sym" key. Tap the gear icon to go to the keyboard settings. (Or go to Settings > Language and input > Samsung keyboard)
Scroll down until you see "Keyboard swipe" and change that to "Continuous input".

That setting does not exist for me in settings. If you have a Note 5 give me a screen shot. As you can see below that option is missing.

It's higher up than that, up in the "Smart typing" section.

Odd. Here is the upper part of that menu and that setting is non-existent. Not sure what to make of this. Are you running Android 6.0.1? What version of Samsung keyboard are you running?

I am on 6.0.1, but that should not matter, as this feature has been available since the phone's release.
Samsung keyboard 1.1.16. If you haven't tried clearing data for the Samsung keyboard app, try that.
Have you disabled any apps?

Only things disabled are SVoice app, Google photos, and Verizon Cloud app.
I am also running 1.1.16 verion of the keyboard. Tried clearing data and settings also.

If the toolbar is missing, go into the keyboard settings and turn it on.

Samsung keyboard hasn't had this for a few years.
If you turn the toolbar off, to get emojis, you hold down the comma key and choose the emoji icon froma list of icons.

Hang on, I just found how to do it for you :silly:
I use GBoard so I didn't know...but I've just found it while going through it. It's all tucked away. You turn off the toolbar in keyboard settings. Then long press the comma, and choose the emoji icon. This sets that left key as the emoji key. It just means that to get a comma, you need to long press theperiod key.

Question Problem with Samsung keyboard and Gboard after November update?

So I use OfferUp and Mercari a lot. (Buying and selling apps, like craigslist and eBay). I've noticed after the most recent Samsung November update, when I have a private message with someone in either one of those apps the swiping feature on both Gboard and Samsung keyboards doesn't work. I have to peck at the keyboard to type.
It still works on other apps, for example when I'm swiping here. I've checked all kinds of settings and I don't see anything that would fix it. It seems to be similar how you can't swipe when entering a password. The keyboards can detect when it's a password field and disabled swipe but it's now doing it within these apps for private messages. I hope this makes sense.
I'm just looking for a fix below I cannot stand typing on a keyboard without swiping.

Works for me. lol

I'm having the same issue. Did you ever find a solution?

I have the same problem. No solutions. Another annoying feature from the update is that in all messaging apps i see completely random words and phrases underlined as a maps link. Wtf
