I love using theme to style my note 5, but i hate when it also themes the Samsung keyboard. I prefer the stock ui for the keyboard, is there any way for me not to theme the keyboard and theme everything else?
I'm using Rotox Theme, SM-920T
i'd like to be able to do this too, seems every theme on samsung's theme store sucks at theming the keyboard
Every theme consists of different packages for different parts of the OS. For exampe material theme (the one i'm using) is called com.cambunch.MaterialDesign. it has a package called com.cambunch.MaterialDesign.inputmethod, whitch is the part responsible for theming keyboard. You Can uninstall only this part of the theme with Titanium backup. After a reboot your keyboard would look like stock theme.
Ps: the naming is standard "[package-name].inputmethod"

I am using swiftkey for years now and pretty happy with the simplicity of it. Try it, it's free
I'm using Note 5 (duos N9208),not able to find option for keyboard,only Samsung keyboard is there!
How to add swype keyboard? Should I install from Playstore? Kindly guide me!
You need to download and install swiftkey from play store. Then follow the instructions to select the keyboard

If you are rooted, download the theme that you want from the Galaxy Store make sure you put the stock theme active. Use a Root file Explorer, go to:
Data/overlays/jsonfiles/userjson/
Find the theme you want. I use dark night. If you open that file with text editor, you will see a list of everything that theme themes. If there is a certain item you don't want themed you can delete that line off of the text. I don't like having the settings themed so I delete the settings line and the icons. It only leaves the stock items and stock settings but I haven't really played with it too much to see what else you can do. In your case there are two lines. They are:
"ong.Datafactory.Inputmethod",
"ong.datafactory.inputmethod_cn*
Depending on what you were theme is it may not say datafactory. I have not tried it for the keyboard but those are the two lines and I don't know if you need to delete both or just the first one. Again I have not tried this I came across another post on how to keep the stock icons and started trying to see if I can on the other things and this is how I managed to do it. Again I'm not 100% sure if you need to delete both but as long as you back it up first then you can try it.
After you delete the lines that you want save the file again as the same name. Reboot your phone and then apply the theme. I'm not sure where I found the post but I think it's in note 5 themes and apps under keeping stock icons. It seems to work for more than just the stock icons and this is how I've been doing it but the person who figured it out wrote the post about the keeping stock icons on note 5. I just tried untheming other things.
Hopefully that helps.
Use Fleksy it's really good
You can just find the apk files in the inputmethod folders should be in data/apps and just rename the base.apk. to base.bak or something. No need to edit the config file.

So I flashed Flipz Rom, and fell in love with the HTC_ime keyboard mod that doesnt include the arrows that the stock HTC keyboard does... I flashed Damagecontrol and it didn't include it, so I went hunting for it and found it in the N1 forums.
-No arrows to get in your way like the stock keyboard
-Very customizable

Do you need to be rooted? For this mod to work? I'm on unrooted stock Rom.. installed it but the arrow keys are still intact.

Its not a mod. Its a whole different keyboard. You have to activate it in the settings and then long press on any text field and change it from Touch Input to this.
Thanks... finally got it to work. I totally forgot to long press
@Auramaster, great find... Thanks
Anytime guys, just trying to help the Evo community

Tap uninstall and then go back and Install it. I believe this removes the older version of HTC_IME then you install the skin version

So does it make the other buttons grow a lil or they are the same size, but the directional buttons are just gone.
If I rename the file and keep the same extension will it load up ok? It should right?
tried this but don't like it.. eventhough it removed the arrow keys, but it's missing the "hide keyboard" key. I use that often when typing in username password on websites that are zoomed in..
^ Hitting back removes the keyboard if it's up. Just saying, so no need for the keyboard drop down button.
I simply assigned swipe-down gesture to hide the keyboard. Convenient.
I lost my Swype when i flashed the HK rom, now that i reinstalled, i have this tiny keyboard. it sucks. Is anyone using Swype, and where did you get it?
please see attached pic. (coming soon)
thanks

I have the same problem when I uninstall the pre-installed Swype and install in the beta. However, on the beta, it only gives me 2 Honeycomb options. WTF!
I just used Titanium Backup to extract Swype from my Galaxy Note. I've uploaded it to one of those file download sites and here's the download link. I haven't tried installing it, since I don't want to uninstall it first. Let me know if it doesn't work.

Thank you. Works like a charm. Just need to install it. So far there isn't any crash or bug.
is anyone in Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore or Vietnam with the galaxy note? can you post me you libswypecore.so and swype.apk
I used to pray for swype on every phone i had, but got sick of the fact there was no market download for phones that didnt have it preinstalled, no upgrades for phones that had it preinstalled, and beta versions that expired.
I found TouchPal keyboard in the market, I now prefer it to Swype (has same swype features etc..) Everything that swype is and more...
(Even seems to be faster than swype on older phones incase you have one)

never mind.. i ripped it out of one the firmwares
So I guess the Galaxy Note registers as a Honeycomb device on Swype's downloader site.
Honeycomb swype is a disaster in of its own, because they failed to realize that white on a light alice blue & light baby blue background (for word options, when choosing possible stroke interpretation) is hard to see.
And on a Galaxy Note, this disaster is intensified because the keyboard is tiny, making it harder to see and tougher to use.
However, I need the beta because the beta contains Chinese characters. I need those.
Anyone have any ideas how to go about getting a recent Gingerbread Swype Beta?
Can I just re-install the Swype that comes with the Note, then replace the libswypecore.so in the default swype with the from the libswypecore.so in honeycomb?
Anybody have any other suggestions?
Oh, I see. Swype said phuck the galaxy note.

That's weird. At the bottom of the page, they say "*WXGA resolution is only supported for devices running Android Honeycomb (3.0) or later". But our WXGA Notes clearly come with Swype preinstalled on Gingerbread. They clearly already did the work and have what's needed, why not support it on the beta? That's lame.
if you can find the swype beta apk (not the installer)...
you can go from this:

I remember that hacked swype builds are forbidden here. If I violate any rules, feel free to remove the post. However, this one isn't hacked, all I did with original package was:
Removed all languages except English - everyone can download all the rest needed in swype language settings.
Removed all resources except for 1280x800.
Extracted libs from apk and put them for extract to system/lib path.
personally I prefer "ultra keyboard" than swype.
it has the swyping function plus loads of customizing options includes:
# make your own colour theme for the keyboard.
# adjust the size of keys and keyboard.
# have both number keys and arrow keys on the same keyboard as the letters..etc
^^ THIS! Thanks for the tip! The only problem I have with it is that it eats up like 60% of the screen in the landscape mode and even more with the tool bar opened! And thats with the shortest hight chosen.. Do you happen to know any solution?

yeah...the only downside of it is the size of the keyboard is quite big in landscape....I don't think any settings change can make any difference...must be a density problem...
I don't usually type in landscape anyways...I usually swype it in portrait mode.
Maybe you can try and make the keyboard a bit more transparent?!

OK, I'm interested.. how exactly?
Alright well i just decided to root my phone and unlock the boot loader as well as loading liquidsmooths 4.1.2 ROM on here.. now my question is. how am i supposed to send emoji? like i can see emoji now but i see no option to send them.. that kind of defeats the whole purpose am i right?
also is there a way to change it from displaying Jellybean emoji to IOS 6 native emoji? i kind of prefer the look of those.
last question.. this is off topic but i'd like to change my boot loader image from liquid smooths back to the annoying Verizon LTE one, does anyone have the flashable zip for that?

hit the menu key and click "insert emoji" and then tap the order of the emoji you want and then hit the button at the bottom of the emoji window (should be OK or Send or something like that)
as far as the other 2 questions go, not sure about the native ios6 emoji as i don't really care cuz i only have 1 friend that uses emoji so i never paid too close attention, in my incredible 2 flashing days, devs had to cook native emoji support into it by modifying files...and shouldn't rom toolbox or that one app that has different boot images have that on there?

"new OP (still WIP)
theme got updated to support nougat, now with S8 influence.
PLEASE REMOVE COMPLETELY OLD VERSION IF YOU HAVE ANY BEFORE INSTALLING THIS. The newest version is "0terpsichora_N_RC3. apk" and "0terpsichora_N_RC3_lightnotif"
PLEASE INSTALL ONLY ONE, you cannot install both at the same time. If your rooted and have means to change title text color on notification or just can bear with the dark one use the ..RC3.apk, if you're not rooted and want a bugless theme use the ..RC3_lightnotif.apk one.
*
Still bugged (dark colored on 3rd party apps) notification title text (need help on this, or ask rom developers to support dark notification template on their ROMs) please report any miscolored, bugs or give bright ideas to improve this. thanks for using, enjoy and please atleast let me know if you kang any part of this theme.
INSTALLATION for rooted devices (you should do all this before 5min trial ends) :
-install and apply theme
-go fast to your root file manager and navigate:
-root/data/overlays/preferences folder
-delete all its contents (7files) not the actual preferences folder.
-then navigate to:
-root/data/overlays/jsonfiles
-from there, CUT and paste the contents (1file) of trialjson folder to inside of userjson folder.
-restart phone and reapply theme.
reserve for Q/A

Wowww beautiful thank you
Can you fix the bugs and make more themes like these? Btw i think the blue sym, smiley, enter and back button on the keyboard isn't that nice. Can you make it grey. And the keyboard swipe color too

Great theme but it is a shame to have to use a 3rd party unknown chinese app that needs to have total control of your device just to run the theme. I really liked the theme but any app like package disabler asking for such permissions is beyond my security concerns. Thank you a lot for the theme, truly a great piece.

I made the Theme even before the Theme Editor is released so I just used the Olympic theme as my base, that one having a fhd resolution only. I tried to migrate my work to the Theme editor and try the wqhd resolution but it looks weird, so I just go with the fhd again sorry.

that's also a bummer, I got rejected as a theme designer @samsung So no chance that you will see this theme on the Store. unless you root your device you have to go with that disabler app if you like to use this.

cant do it on the theme editor so unpack/decompile the theme apk bro, look on assests folder, the one apk with ..aodservice in it, also unpack it. compare yours with mine to modify to your liking, then on your aodservice apk look to the values folder and edit your public.xml delete all id's. just repack/recompile your aodservice apk and put it again on your theme package. then recompile your theme package and sign it. (seems complicated if your not familiar with old school themeing, but if you know what I'm talking about, its very easy )

I totally forgot about that,Ö I think there's a bug on the editor that you released because on the output apk, when I inspect it there is no ..inCallui on the asset folder.. I'll fix it, give me time, I'll make it great with note7 icons also on the next update with smaller icons and camera Ala note 7.
*and I think we are really getting near on receiving Grace UX, because that theme editor has so much stuff from Grace UX. little by little they're removing stuff from old touchwiz.

Hey folks,
I've been driving myself nuts trying to find a way to change icons with this launcher for days; I finally caved and decided to ask for help. I'm really glad that I came across this site. I've tried countless icon changer apps from the Play Store, but they aren't compatible with this launcher .
Anyways, I'm using a Google Pixel 2 XL with Pie (Android version: 9) & the launcher I'm using is "Launcher for Win 10" with the "Win 7 theme".
I'm just wondering if there is a way to manually change icons in the task bar. Specifically chompSMS. When I hold the icon, there is no option to edit it.
Thanks very much for taking the time to read this.

Hey Droidriven,
Thanks for writing & the advice! I downloaded APKtool & Android Studio, and have been wearing out my fingers trying to figure out how to use them & searching the forums. I hate to ask you this since you were already nice enough to offer some advice, but, how do I decompile the launcher app?
