Samsung Keyboard Fix? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

Has there been a fix for this yet on VZW? Someone in the sprint forum has made a fix for the auto-correct and also made it so it takes less time for the sticky keys.

They didn't make a fix, they are using the updated keyboard or had an ota to fix it.

Hey all, this is my first mod, but it was driving me crazy that the stock samsung keyboard didn't support auto-correct - and the timeout delay was way too long.
I'm working on an auto-patcher in the next couple of days.
EDIT:
I attached the APK: /system/app/
Make sure to set the proper permissions, then reboot.
The code changed is below
Here's a first stab at fixing both, would love some feedback.
1. To change the long press delay
In PointerTracker:
Code:
###################################################
# Change the long press delay to 200ms from 500ms #
###################################################
.line 498
const/16 v0, 0xc8
.line 499
.local v0, delay:I
packed-switch p1, :pswitch_data_0
.line 504
const/16 v0, 0xc8
.line 507
:goto_0
int-to-long v1, v0
return-wide v1
.line 501
:pswitch_0
const/16 v0, 0xc8
2. To add auto-correct
In SwiftkeyQwertyLatinInputModule
Code:
.line 312
:cond_3
##################################################
# Add support for auto-correct on word separator #
##################################################
#check if the user has entered text
iget-object v7, p0, Lcom/diotek/ime/framework/input/AbstractInputModule;->mComposing:Ljava/lang/StringBuilder;
invoke-virtual {v7}, Ljava/lang/StringBuilder;->length()I
move-result v7
if-lez v7, :cond_10
iget-object v7, p0, Lcom/diotek/ime/framework/input/AbstractInputModule;->mEngineManager:Lcom/diotek/ime/framework/engine/InputEngineManager;
iget-object v8, p0, Lcom/diotek/ime/framework/input/AbstractInputModule;->mComposing:Ljava/lang/StringBuilder;
invoke-interface {v7, v8, v9}, Lcom/diotek/ime/framework/engine/InputEngineManager;->getCharSequence(Ljava/lang/StringBuilder;I)I
invoke-virtual {p0}, Lcom/diotek/ime/framework/input/SwiftkeyQwertyLatinInputModule;->updateSuggestion()V
invoke-virtual {p0}, Lcom/diotek/ime/framework/input/SwiftkeyQwertyLatinInputModule;->setComposingText()V
##################################################
# End support for auto-correct on word separator #
##################################################
#move clearCandidateList from beginning of processWordSeparator to after we do correct
:cond_10
invoke-virtual {p0}, Lcom/diotek/ime/framework/input/SwiftkeyQwertyLatinInputModule;->clearCandidateList()V
#code below is not changed - just for reference
iget-object v7, p0, Lcom/diotek/ime/framework/input/AbstractInputModule;->mEngineManager:Lcom/diotek/ime/framework/engine/InputEngineManager;
iget-object v8, p0, Lcom/diotek/ime/framework/input/AbstractInputModule;->mCandidates:Ljava/util/ArrayList;
invoke-interface {v7, v8}, Lcom/diotek/ime/framework/engine/InputEngineManager;->getSuggestion(Ljava/util/ArrayList;)I
.line 313

So this is an updated keyboard?

---

+1
If we can get autocorrect working on the Sammy keyboard I would be a happy camper. It is the only thing that prevents me from using it (and jumping between swiftkey and thumb keyboard).

---

I stand corrected. But it is fixed in the updated keyboard, yes.

Why would this crash on a deodexed VZW/AT&T rom? It doesn't seem like the keyboard would have anything to do with the carrier. The APK is just for the keyboard too, which is also weird

---

I just posted the VZW version of the APK (from CleanRom 4.0.5 ACE) in the hopes that he can modify it too. Not sure why they are carrier specific.

You should quote the guy i posted in my post. The work looks practically done since he tells you exactly how to do it. I"m pretty sure just needs to be tweaked a bit to work with VZW, but have no clue.
I installed the APK from that other thread on my system, even tried going to a dif nandroid backup of a different deodexed rom, both times the keyboard fails to load up (it is just a black square like normal, with no keys) and it FC

There are libs needed as well.

I didn't really have time to get the 4.1.2 keyboard working, so I did this for you guys.

Thanks, are we supposed to flash this? I tried flashing it and my keyboard won't even slide up/FC.
I tried changing it to APK and no go either.

Yes it is to be flashed.
I don't support other people's roms so if you are on clean rom sorry. I only tested this with a Verizon rom and it does work.

that is what I figured, i was looking inside and am guessing you need to be odexed?
Thanks though for your effort, you should post in in the themes and apps section. i think a lot of people would like something like this
hopefully someone can port it to CleanROM later then....

Isn't cleanrom based off of 4.1.2? Doesn't 4.1.2 have the fix from Samsung???

---

would this patch work with beanstown? it's based off stock verizon

Nope. Running this ROM and the Sammy KB will show the assumed correct word in blue in the middle of the suggestion row, but if you press space, it just inserts what you typed (even when the suggested word is the word that really is correct). I don't know if this is operator error on my part, but this is the same thing it was doing when I was stock unrooted.

Nope, sadly. adrnyalyne, did you post in the other thread about the less time for sticky keys, or did you just fix the autocorrect?

You are right. Go into the settings for the SS keyboard and you will see that it gives you the Swift Key option as to what space bar is SUPPOSED to do. I have mine ticked to replace the word, but it doesn't do that. I have also tried unticking it and same result. it really sucks.

Confirmed working with auto correct on beans

I can also confirm it works! This was prob the only flaw I had with this phone, thanks!
Adrynalyne...would you mind if Beans incorporated this into his Rom?
