Write without taking finger away - Nexus 7 General

Somewhere i read that in 4.2.1 there was implemented a feature for writing without taking finger away in stock keyboard. In keyboard settings the feature seems to be enabled, but actually it does not work, and i cannot figure out why. Any suggestions?

Not sure why it isn't working but try out this keyboard and see what you think: http://www.swiftkey.net/flow/

Hmm, it should just work. Try clearing the data in the app? (I believe it's just called android keyboard in the "all" tab of application manager)

Thank you for advice. However, I'm interested in making stock things work.

Sorry, i found what the problem is. My system language is different from English, so it didn't work for English keyboard, had to uncheck use system language in keyboard settings and add English keyboard. After this everything works. Stupid of me, lol

Contacts and dialer one app

I don't really like how there is an app dedicated to "people" and one "phone". Anyone have a good method of combining them into one app? Right now i just have them paired in a folder but i think there can be a better way of grouping. Suggestions please?
Thanks in advance

They are combined, hit search button on dialer, and it will bring up contacts..

Not sure why the stock app isn't more like Dialer One. T9 search seems to be a basic functionality feature (With room for more than one single result). Why is Blackberry the only company that has basic functions like that embedded.
Dialer One needs an update...it looks so old.
I see it now, thanks!

Stock keyboard backspacing.

Does anybody have this problem when you delete a word and press backspace too fast it deletes the whole typed text. It I is very annoying. I like the keyboard otherwise but will switch to something else.

Ums on jelly bean?

How can I use ums in jelly bean worked in ICS but now jelly bean does not have the option for ums?
Sent from my MB886 using xda premium
I saw an apk to enable ums on S3. Any coder might be interested in porting it for us would be great.
MTP is so slow. I wonder why Moto or Google disable it.

I don't ever remember stumbling upon that settings menu.....
Try to find it for me thanks
Sent from my MB886 using xda premium
I found an apk for this, but it tells me "An existing package by the same name with a conflicting signature is already installed." So it is already on our device. The only question now is how do we access it. So if adolfo778 will let us know how to access it that would be greatly appreciated.
Sorry guys was half asleep didn't know I didn't post it.
From any 3rd party launcher go to shortcuts then activities and it should be com.Qualcomm
I've yet to see if it works

Thanks for responding back. I gave this a try and sadly it didn't work. I checked it off and plugged it into my computer and it still connects via MTP and there is no option for USB mass storage. I then thought that it may need a reboot, but that didn't work either. It just resets it to disabled. I'm going to give it a try in my car tomorrow morning. I'll let everyone know if it works.

Doesn't work in the car either.

It must be hidden in build.prop. Anyone who backup build.prop from ICS,please attach it here. I'm using Batakang ROM now. I saw there's settings in aditional build properties such as :
ro.usb.mtp: 0x2e32.
It should work if we can add value for ums.

Gesture typing apk?

Is there a flash or apk to install Jelly Bean gesture typing? I have an i957.
Thanks!

You can get swype beta to work. Not sure on the jb gesture.

Swype beta has bugs like auto space doesn't work.....
I'm using it successfully. It is different than jb. Like double space puts the period at the end of a sentence. Jb puts the double space after the period.

I always use Swype on every device I have on every rom I use (including the latest 4.2.1 CM10.1) and had no problems whatsoever..
Sign up for SwiftKey's VIP program, and you can then beta test their Flow keyboard, which is just the best keyboard app.
Works great. Thanks!

Black Keyboard?

Samsung recently posted an ad on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6nwuk90Gc2A) it shows Messi holding the note 3 but his version has a black keyboard. Does anyone know how to get that keyboard on our phone? Thanks in advance!

It looks like the Google keyboard. Which you can get from the app store. SwiftKey has a better black keyboard.

I normally use the Google keyboard but I actually really like the stock keyboard. Love that dedicated number row.

Seems like the stock one I'm actually used to the one my custom note 1 had so I just flashed that wonder why they would advertise the phone with something that doesn't come stock with it

I did like that dedicated number row. But geez. It takes up half the screen, and is ugly imo

That's definitely not the Google Keyboard.. it looks nice, though!
I am currently using AI KeyBoard. You can make it have the top row of numbers as well as a lot more customization features.. no swyping, though.

No that isn't it. The keyboard in the video looks like it is a stock samsung keyboard with the number row at the top. I suspect it maybe the N9005 or N9000 model that has a black keyboard???
I'm actually impressed with the stock keyboard so much that i haven't even installed swift key yet and I'm not sure i will. Light years ahead of the stock Note 2 keyboard.
