Hi everyone! It's good to be back. I just switched from an iPhone 6 to a Galaxy S6 (G920F) few days ago but I am not new with rooting and other things in android. I just have some questions and I need help.
1. How can I make the stock samsung keyboard to always show uppercase keys (like the one in the iPhone). I do not like using 3rd party keyboards. I want the stock samsung keyboard to NOT display lowercase keys. I WANT IT TO PERMANENTLY DISPLAY UPPERCASE KEYS.
2. How can I remove the number row on the top of the stock samsung keyboard? Like the one in the S3 that does not have a number row at the top. I prefer not having the number row.
Your help would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance!
So you want an iPhone keyboard : | . Just install ai.type keyboard and an ios 7/8 theme for ai.type . then personalize the keyboard and there you have it
I want to keep the stock keyboard.. i just want to remove the number row in it. And also disable the keys from displaying lowercase keys.

i dont think it is possible, maybe another keyboard is the only way
You cant do those things trough the stock keyboard configuration. Get used to it or try a different keyboard.
Not possible bro .. At least from what i know ...
You came from the iPhone huh? I can tell lol. Try experimenting with new stuff! There's a ton of better options vs the Samsung keyboard. Google Keyboard is my personal favorite. If you know how, you can make that thing look like any keyboard you want lol.

I feel like this is a stupid question so forgive my ignorance if it is but would it be possible to create a keyboard that uses the prediction and keys of IME with the features of the stock froyo keyboard? (I mean the ability to insert ! . , ? after each word and being able to slide your finger up for additional characters)
This seems like it would be impossible but then again, this is XDA so you never know
anyway, thanks!

I know its not quite what you're looking for, but a bit of work has been done on a keyboard manager to set different keyboards for portrait and landscape mode -- its still a WIP but its promising.
I upgraded to LA4 and realized that letters are a lot smaller that the previous firmware I had. My fingers are too big for a tiny keyboard. I mean we have 5.3" screen what is the point of shrinking the letters that much?
Anyways, how can I get my old keyboard back or a keyboard that is bigger than the LA4 keyboard?
I liked the bigger keyboard better. the new one is too small for me.
I would appreciate it if some knew how to get the older keyboard back instead of reverting to an older rom
hi, maybe im wrong, but could it be that you guys have been under settings->language&Keyboard and have set a tap to an option that called 'one hand operation' ? if yes delete the tap and you have your old keyboard back
Also smart keyboard on the market, allows you to increase its keys to whatever pixel size you want :-D

I am not a big fan of 3rd party keyboard apps but in this case I will try that. Thank you.
Any other suggestions are welcomed.
I use hacker's keyboard from the market. There you can set the height of the keys if you want to.

yeah.. smart keyboard pro should do the trick..
I'm not sure why android continues to so this, but why can't they allow for long press options on the keyboard? My phone keyboard shows the numbers as long press options at the top, my tablet does not.
The only long press options on the keyboard are punctuations.
Is there a way to fix this? Use phone keyboard on tablet?

I wonder why that is as well. I looked through all the keyboard settings and didn't see an option for that but really would like to have it.
Try the Swype Beta keyboard (google it). Numbers are a long press.
Not really interested in swype or any of the other keyboard options. I like stock functions the best, just curious about the long press buttons missing in tablet format.
Personally that's the reason why I use stock keyboard on my Tablet. I use Swiftkey on my phone because it's quick, and the Gingerbread keyboard isn't as nice as the stock Jelly Bean. I really like how it isn't cluttered and is just clean.
Hello, I have a huge small problem. I want to change my keyboard with other one ( from the app store ), but I can't. I installed SwiftKey 3 keyboard and when I want to activate it from the settings menu I can't. My list with all keyboard shows me just the samsung stock one, and I don't know what to do now, can you help me?
weird problem
you must be on stock right
maybe a big with SwiftKey
try with go keyboard
I am using Note5 as I always want a high spec android with dual sim and keyboard cover, but i am so disapointed with the limitations i realised after using for weeks, any same victim here? Or perhaps any captain can help to solve some of the problems?
Following are problems only happen when Samsung Keyboard attached:
1. No backlit keyboard, so pretty difficult to use at dark, ok i must admit this I have known before i bought it, so i forgive that
2. No split screen, ok i understand with smaller screen after keyboard coverd, must be difficult to have split screen also
3. Only Samsung Default Theme is allowed: I am not a Samsung Default Theme fan, so when I decide to buy samsung, I pretty much expect to have customize theme, and after i m done with customize, it is all changed to default everytime keyboard is attached... So stupid..
4. S Pen Air Command cannot work together with keyboard: feel so exiciting on beginning to have keyboard cover and useful S Pen to increase productivity in business, then realise Smart Select never happen when keyboard is attach, so only choose one, when i wanna use pen, i must remove keyboard, WTH!!!!
5. This is most annoying one, no PINYIN! Samsung Keyboard can add multiple language, include chinese pinyin, and cannot work when keyboard cover attached, and i pt cannot change to google pinyin also after keyboard attached, again only one feature you can use, want a pinyin then remove keyboard cover.
I really really hope there is an update for any of limitation in near future!
