[Q] Can we get the S6 keyboard? - Sprint Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was wondering if there's any way to get the version of Samsung's keyboard on the S6 on my Note 4?

I think it is already out there somewhere.

Does my Note 4 have to be rooted to install these Galaxy S6 apps?

From the instructions it looks like you do.

The instructions are very basic, they simply tell me where to place the files.
My note 4 IS rooted, I placed the 2 files for the keyboard in the correct places, but.. now what? d: It appears my Samsung Keyboard is entirely gone when I go to choose my input method, I have just Google and Swype.
Any tips? Thanks!

Doesn't look much different than the note 4 version.

True, I just found a post where someone had a flashable version, and honestly the subtle visual appearance changes are more than enough for me to do whatever it took to get the updated version! I love it, it's just cleaner than before

Lol ok as long as you're happy. It's just the one button that's a little different looking but seems to have the same function.

I am very interested in this app. I would be very useful if you could help.
Thank you very much and sorry for my English.

What so special in S-pen, AFAIK it is just an ordinary Stylus? Isn't it? That shouldn't be a problem.
Galaxy Note uses wacom digitizer to register the input which can read pressure level for the magnetic S-pen.
Now back to the topic, smemo without spen pressure level reading would be no different from skitch+evernote combination with capacitive stylus.
I've got to mention that smemo can be used with fingers however it's not really accurate and you lose benefits that spen provides.

I think you have to get the lib files from Note and put it in correct directory might work.As said in post #6

If the libs are designed in such a way that they only detect the spen's touch then someone gotta modify the libs to work with human fingers.

Just try putting the lib files in your phone first.Lets try our luck.If it doesn't work let the dev do there job when they find time.
Can someone post the names of the required lib files??

I don't have a note so I don't know which libs they are, gift me a note and I'll tell u the name.
Aside from finding the correct libraries, we have to change the resolution of the application. Our Galaxy S have 240dpi and S-Memo have 320dpi. Here you can download the smemo240. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1361462
We need the libs
Thanks to all

[Q] Chameleon Launcher on Note - Possible?

Has anyone tried installing and using Chameleon Launcher in Note? Does it work?
looks so nice with loads of features
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wsMSwxLDIxMiwiY29tLmNoYW1lbGVvbmxhdW5jaGVyIl0.
No I can't download it on my note 1 (chameleon is a tablet only launcher and the note is recognized as a smartphone).
Edit: however, with a custom rom (aosp), you can put the note in tablet mode or even hybrid mode (ParanoidAndroid) and install it.

SideSync 3.0 and Note 3

I've been using the 8.4 for a few days now and while I really enjoy the SideSync feature to sync up my Note 3 phone when it's not on hand, I haven't been able to open a keyboard to actually type anything, respond to a text message etc.
I was wondering if there is anyway to activate a keyboard.
Thanks!
My keyboard auto pops up.

Same here, but I can't get mine to connect without launching the phone app each time
I have to launch the app each time too.
Does your battery on your note 3 not like just drop like a rock? Seems for me when it is connected by wifi direct it just drops like a rock.
I found the solution. I installed a S5 keyboard on my note 3 and it worked after that. I'm running Effortless rom on my t-mobile note 3, that's where I got the keyboard linked below.

Thanks! Working great now. Last question - is it possible for me to install a zip file without having a rooted phone? My note 3 isn't rooted.
To install that particular zip, you need root. It needs to write that keyboard to the system folder which is only writable if you have root

Grabbed the zip and flashed it. But now my Samsung Keyboard isn't working at all - I'm getting a force close whenever it's set as the default.

So has anyone solved this problem of having to launch the app on the phone each time? It'd be much more useful if we can keep the app running on the phone so we don't actually have to physically get the phone in order to use it.
I saw in the ads that we can answer/make calls from sidesync... but when i tried it won't allowed me.. is it just me?

I was told by a samsung sales guy in Best Buy, that for now, only the S5 phone can be used for calls in the ablet in sidesync.

Missing Dictionaries

Where are they? I've seen them in review videos. The option to highlight the word then select dictionary, English to spanish, etc would be handy. Is it only missing on Verizon or does anyone know?
I just tried this for the first time and it gave me the option to download the English version and it worked. I do not see any other options though.
English is the only option.

Damn Verizon they can never leave things alone. That was one thing i was like cool i can use Spanish one also been paying with learning it and figured hey that would help. They always seem to take out the small stuff that you can use like the settings screen can't change to another view that the reviews have either.

I have the sprint variant and i too only have the english dictionary. Sucks.
Is there a way to get the files for the other dictionaries? It really sucks that I only have access to the English dictionary. Using Verizon.
Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk
I dunno. Hopefully someone will figure it out..I really hate the way carriers strip things to make room for their garbage.
The Tmobile version also only has English. Could have something to do with rights inside the USA. Anyway hope we can download them somewhere
Anyone figure out how to download other language dictionaries? I have the same problem with Tmobile Note 4....does it have anything to do with being rooted?

Global rom, extract, and then move with root? Possibility.
Quite irritating.
There must be some way to install languages on US version. Please see this video of 10 hidden features of Note 4. This guy has T-mobile note 4.

Is the TMob version a different Sku? IIRC with the N2 somehow they are able to flash global roms.

So exactly how do we get Fortnight?
