Hi everyone.
I have an S21 Ultra, I'm new to Samsung.
I've been using Swiftkey for years, it's my preferred keyboard. It's also preinstalled on this phone (system software).
However, when I chose to use it, the system spell checker (red underlined words) doesn't work.
I've installed many other keyboards including Gboard, and they all work fine with the system spell checker.
Only Swiftkey doesn't work
I've contacted Swiftkey support, and they agree it's a system issue.
Anyone have any suggestions on how to resolve this? Has anyone else experienced this?
Samsung Keyboard, and/or Gboard, just aren't good for me.
Thanks.

Make sure it has all needed permissions.
The Samsung keyboard is actually quit nice and my favorite. Been using it for over 6 years. They wisely kept the original layout and added more options over the years.
Your animated and icon caused me mental distress.
Yeah I tried permissions, also because it's Swiftkey is preinstalled system software, most permissions were already enabled.
My understanding is the spell checker isn't part of the keyboard software, but the phones system software. That for some reason when using Swiftkey, the system's spell checker doesn't recognize text is being inputted. Just as it turns off for url, or form entry.
Yes Samsung keyboard is nice. It's like one of those Range Rovers, very plush, and pretty. But it's not for me.

Lol, a dancing honey badger is very disconcerting
Maybe scoped storage is road blocking access as usual.
The app may need updating.
On Android 11 and higher scoped storage is fully active... and a menace.

Sorry, I wasn't real sure where to put this. The screen shot pretty much says it all.
I'm using the theme here, for MIUI, yet this happens on all the popular dark themes I've tried. It's very hard to see the gray text containing address info against the gray background with the popup results menu in Google Navigation.
Is there an easy fix for this? Thanks.

I've always had the same problem. Never found a solution except to use light themes.

LOL??? thanks for pointing this out.. i just spotted this in my theme and totally missed it.. so im going to work on this right away!!
Certainly, it's like this on a lot of themes, even the default on.
I know it's part of the framework, but I don't know what specifically needs to edited to change this without affecting the rest of the theme.
Have you tried this:
(I'm using a French rom, so all the terms I'm going to use may be not the good ones in English..)
Go to Settings, Applications Manager, search and tap on Google Navigation in your apps list, then de-activate Compatibility Mode.. It worked for me with some unreadable white on white texts..
If it doesn't work (sorry about it, first.. ), just re-activate Compatibility Mode (just in case)
I have enabled Voice input in Settings --> Language and Keyboard --> Samsung Keypad --> Voice Input.
However, when I press the "Voice Input" button in the keyboard, it shows that Voice Input is disabled in my phone. You can see the screenshot below.
I DID NOT install a custom ROM, all stock. My phone is ROOTED and I have NOT "frozen" any apps that I think is critical for voice input. You can see the list below of ALL the apps I have "frozen" using Titanium Backup.
Can anyone help?

FROZEN APPS LIST
I seem to have this issue as well but I AM on a Custom ROM and am Rooted, etc. Id also like to know how to fix this as I like to use this feature for "Talking to text", etc... Also, I am using SmartKeyboard at the moment but I dont think that has anything to do with it as I have used this keyboard on my SGSII as well (which was also running custom ROM and was rooted) and I never had this issue before.
Anyone?
***EDIT***
Hmmm... I went back into the Samsung Keyboard settings and unchecked then RE checked the voice input option and now it seems to be working...
Well i checked and i have exactly the same issue.. stock rom and rooted, mic crossed out just like OP...
edit: mucked about a bit, and finally read the manual?...doh!.. Once i started voice input by double press of the home button it all started to work..

So you can press the "microphone" icon in the keyboard and it works now? Or are you referring to "double-clicking" the home button?
What I am looking for is the 2nd paragraph above. For example, I want to use voice input to write email WHILE I have the email app open. With my Thunderbolt, I can do so by tapping on the "microphone" icon.
No one use the "Voice recognition" in the Note?
Let me explain my problem... I love to use on-screen soft key instead of capacitive keys on my Galaxy S6... But when I try to use Camera app the UI of the app (buttons) is under lapped to the Soft key (back, home, multitasking buttons)... So is there any way the UI of camera app can be fixed while using soft key on Galaxy S6...? Smart Manager app has same problem...
Please see attached screenshot...

Did you try clearing the camera app cache and data see if that helps? its not suppose to be like that in your screenshot.
As I mentioned in the the 'multidpi system app mod thread' where you also posted this question this is a result of the dirty multi-dpi fix... The apk has it's dimension values set to absolute pixels instead of dp... As a result it doesn't take into account the actual displayable view, but just stretches across the entire screen.
So this isn't going to work with the multidpi versions, an earlier mod where dp values where changed also didn't work so I have no idea how to fix this for now... Only solution if you wish to use softkey is to use standard dpi of 640 and the unmodded stock apks.
*EDIT*
By the way, as you posted this in the modded apk thread I assumed you are sing these... But as I haven't done anything to the smart manager I am starting to doubt that. If that isn't the case you can forget my remark (Still no clue though, apart from the fact that Samsung seems to suck at making these apps scale properly)
I've ran into a problem on 5.1.1 (just updated) with navbar. The themes won't work! When trying to apply a theme it says that I have to remove "keyboard cover". Is the a service we can disable to make themes work again with navbar? Any ideas? There were no issues with 5.0.2
Something installed a screen that appears whenever I'm charging my phone.

I've searched my apps, I've changed my daydream settings, I've changed my timeout settings. Nothing. This still appears. I think an app called Glance Plus added it. I uninstalled it but this screen is still here.
I'm effing MAD.
Any tips on getting rid of it?

Restore data.
Fixed.

Which app caused it? A battery app?
Battery doctor by any chance?

It returned. BUT I FOUND OUT WHAT IT IS!
An app called ES App Locker by ES Global. The same company that made ES File Explorer (I actually have the pro version that I am now uninstalling because of this!). They just updated the app, and the update added a fake lock screen that shows ads and also adds a folder called "dianxin" to your file library. The banner ads are stored in that folder and it can grow quite large. This isn't cool at all. I uninstalled the app and everything is back to normal. Spread the word that ES is adding adware to their stuff.
There was discussion about ES File Explorer months ago on the portal. Where have you been?
I'm just kidding.
ES works nicely, but the adware is why I only install for a single purpose, file cleaner works very well rooted. I use it n uninstall it. Definitely jams up a device

Hi guys! I am using my phone with high performance mode enabled. I don't want to turn this off.
But because of this, a battery icon with speedometer is constantly visible in the notification bar.
How can I disable this?
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Galaxy Store, Good Lock family of apps, Quickstar. Clean up that horrible bright white too.
It's works! Thank you very much!

You're welcome. It's a cool apk that uses almost no power.
This is one reason you buy Samsung, customization. Hundreds of free themes and icon packs too. The stock launcher is faster, more stable and efficient than any of the 3rd party ones... plus very customizable.
iPhones are such plain Jane's
Yes, you are right. Anyway, I solve most of the customization with gravitybox and firefds modules, since I have root.
A little plus information for EU users: The Good Luck app is not available in the Galaxy Store due to region restrictions.
If you still install the apk from elsewhere (eg. apkmirror), it will display an error message after start.
The solution: install a free vpn app (eg. protonvpn), remove the sim card from your phone, force shutdown and delete data + clear cache in the galaxy store app (+ and if you have already installed it in the Good Luck app), set up a vpn connection via wifi to make the connection target US.
Launch the Galaxy Store and now you can find Good Luck and use it!
