After factory reset my xzp lost 3x4 keyboard - Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers

Hello. Yesterday I had to return the phone to the factory settings.
After this operation, the international Xperia keyboard disappeared from my settings.
And there I could set up a convenient 3x4 keyboard with t9 for me.
Can anyone help me find the APK file or in the Play store. I found something but there is information that is incompatible with my model and I used it for two years in this phone before.

Are u looking for the Xperia keyboard?
-Or is it a specific keyboard
-What's ur android version?
I need to know these befor I can help

If you've installed the apk's then go to Language and keyboards in the settings and tick the appropriate keyboards and then open an app that uses keyboards like your messaging app, long press the screen and select input method and then choose a keyboard.
You got a link to the HTC keyboard apk?

[Q] Keyboard Problems

Hi,
recently my One S had received the update to 4.04. After that my keyboard is QWERTZ instead of QWERTY. I tried to change language settings but I have only "English (Swiss) English (Austria) English (Germany) and none of those have QWERTY keyboard. How can I do?
[I have alredy posted this in a wrong section]
Same problem
This problem has affected me also. Apparantly it looks like we must both have a german hardware keyboard in our phones. First option seems to be to root the phone and change the hardware as per this existing link, but hopefully someone can tell us another way to do this without rooting?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1852514
I have installed swift keyboard for now which resolves it but I don't like it as much as the built in keyboard. Would be nice to be able to go back to qwerty without rooting phone. Anyone that can help?

[Q]How to install Note Pro stock keyboard on custom ROM?

Hi,
I was trying to get an answer to this but couldn't find anywhere.
I have just flashed Cyanogenmod on my Note Pro and found myself missing the good old Samsung stock keyboard.
I was thinking to download a differnt keyboard from the play store but after a long search i still want the stock keyboard (with the arrows, the ctrl and tab keys).
please help me to find a way to reinstall the samsung stock keyboard.
Thank you
Ray
This is the official app for it... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.visionobjects.resourcemanager
Alternatively, try Hacker's Keyboard for a truly full key set. It's a keyboard designed for coders, but as a writer I absolutely adore it. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.pocketworkstation.pckeyboard It also has several dictionaries for T9.
Thanks for replying.

Thank you for your reply but the official app you suggested can't be downloaded from the play store.
(No install button and says: "your device is not compatible with this version")
As for the hacker's keyboard, I tried and think it's a good option but it's missing one important feature... No Swype
I don't think I'm asking that much... I just want a full keyboard with ctrl, tab, arrow keys, Swype and prediction.... That's all
Thanks again.
I think if it were me I'd have rooted stock, done a full backup in Titanium, as well as an nandroid of stock using TWRP prior to switching to CM. Once CM was running I'd selectively restore app only from Titanium being mindful that some old system apps may be touchwiz specific and may cause issues (so I'd update nandroid of CM periodically as I added them).
The APK is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=46847745&postcount=88
I can't guarantee that it'll work though. Probably need to set permissions and all.
Try Ki Keyboard, it's on the play store ,I'm just not allowed to link to it until I reach 10 posts.
I paid for it, needed a keyboard which would allow me to change the width/height/padding/margin of each key on the keyboard. By doing this, I managed to measure out my home full-size keyboard, and the keys, and create a near 1:1 replica using Ki Keyboard. I hate touchscreen keyboards, but this is the closest I can get!

Sorry but i dont see how what you wrote has any connection to what i ask,
i dont mind the new design i just care about 2 features use to be in the keyboard before the 5.0 update
I had been doing OK with the KitKat keyboard and want it back. I have real trouble using virtual keyboards because of a neurological disorder. Since upgrading to Lollipop, my Nexus7 is useless to me. I have tried dozens of keyboards and most of them simply error. The others are hard to impossible for me to use.
I see newer keyboards ported to older OSes, why not older keyboards to newer OSes.
Extract latinime.apk and libjni_latinime.so from the older rom and substitute these for the newer equivalents. Reboot.
This is very general so back up before trying in case there's incompatibility.
Forgot to mention to set permissions (644 for apk and 777 for lib)

I got some help from another forum I am part of.
Someone showed how to make the Lollipop keyboard be the same as the KitKat one.
So first is by changing the theme to Holo White or Holo Blue (like swanTV posted). The blue and white refer to the color of the text on your suggestion bar; the keys look the same.
Then it is a matter of changing various settings, to how you had them before.
The only difference I have now is some of the long presses have moved, so I need to learn the new placement. I have screenshots of KitKat and Lollipop and the keyboards look the same now.
On a side note, I did a lot of hunting because of the update and found several keyboards I liked except for one thing so I will watch and check updates on them. I also found a couple of keyboards I think that I could really like but I need to get used to. You might want to look around a little. Keyboards are very personal, my husband and I hate each other's.
One last thought. I am a long time PalmOS user and can write at full speed with Graffiti. Graffiti no longer works on my Android but I did find a new handwriting input that I am trying.

Stock Keyboard issues with Nougat

Hello,
Nougat update on S7 has completely f**** up my stock keyboard.
With Marshmallow:
I was able to type at high speed with relevant bilingual autocorrection whatever language (french/english) was set on the keyboard.
The return key was allowing me to cancel the auto correction by leaving the typed words.
With Nougat:
No bilingual autocorrect, I have to select the right language anytime I am switching fomr english to french otherwise the keyboard corrects everything into the language set on with the space bar key.
I tried to use Swiftkeyboard but not a big fan of it since question marks is not accessible straight (have to long press the . key) + the numeric pad is awful, tiny and showing plenty of symbol (when it comes to enter only digits) and the € key is sent to page 3 of the keyboard which is annoying for euro countries and there is no .com key neither."
Even if it does bilingual autocorrection and there's plenty of customization capabilities, all mentioned above cannot be changed.
Is there anyway to get back to the well performing stock keyboard without root ?
Thank you
This happened to me as well. Unfortunately, I still haven't found a fix for that. Deleting the app data/cache for the appropriate apps didn't help. So anyone else any idea?

I'm using G Board now, I also thought that the stock nougat KB wasn't that good.

I know there are many great alternatives, but not fulfilling all my requirements.
For example, I need Umlauts on my keyboard and a number row.

I don't know what Umlauts is, G board has a dedicated number row though.

Umlauts: ä, ö, ü
(I know you can achieve these by long tapping the letter but I want it right on the keyboard.)
It doesn't even learn your typing from your other app like fb or email..
Stock Marshmallow keyboard was way more customizable i.e offensive words/learn from other apps...

Hi guys! Same for me! I use 2 languages and the autocorrect is a pain. Maybe Samsung had a 3rd party work on The Marshmallow keyboard and now the contract is over? They really ****ed up big time!
I cant add short cuts to my stock keyboard. To type my name i eould type vcl and my entire long ass name pops up. I cant figure it out. HELP PLEASE, Vinny

Same thing for me, I usually can change the language when SMS'ing between English and Vietnamese. Now I no longer have that choice and don't know how to fix it either.
A lot of other issues:
+ When using Waze for navigation, when I make a phone call after 15' or 30' the screen will return back to Waze, but it's not
+ The quality of sound for both phone talking and music listening is bad (interference noise), and the volume at max level is much lower
+ Very slow to launch new applications
+ Some no response to touch screen.

I had my phone trained before to understand French, Italian, and Dutch in addition to my default English. Now, a Dutch keyboard (and ergo dictionary) are not even a choice. There's only seven languages to choose from!
Oh, quick addition: Before flashing with Odin I hard reset my S7 and did set everything up as new. So no incompatibility with any apps or so there shouldn't be any incompatibility with any apps or so.
I am also really annoyed by the N keyboard update. Just got used to the keyboard on MM and started to like it. Even more than gboard or swiftkey.
Does anyone know where I can download the old keyboard? Or which version it was? I want it back. I know that I cannot just install it over the system app, but maybe we can modify the old version and install it as additional keyboard?
I mean getting it back doesn't seem to be a problem, just extract it from any 6.0 rom zip, but installing it/modifying it would be difficult for me.

could you extract the old keyboard apk?
Question: To install the old keyboard app, it is necessary that the package name of the old app is not the same as the one that is currently installed, otherwise it would not let us install it/over. We cannot remove the current system app without root... Is changing the packagename enough? I would try this...
Because here I found a thread that shows how to change the packagename https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2760965
I'll see what I can do.
Patience is a virgin.
So I just noticed that one could download the old version of the com.sec.android.inputmethod.apk on apkmirror.com. So now we just need someone to modify it and make it compatible for Nougat. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Same issues maybe like you guys, really loved the marshmallow keyboard. Maybe someone can make it compatible with nougat.
I upgraded to 7.0 on my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. BIG mistake! First my keyboard became mostly unresponsive. Then after a reboot nearly every App button left the screens. Now, I cannot bring them back, because now holding down an APP button to move an App back to the home screen cannot be done. Nothing happens. Other issues are there, but these are the most important.
