Am I crazy or is the Samsung Keyboard garbage? It does word prediction but doesn't auto correct... WTF?!?! Or am I missing something here?
Go to settings and then go to language and input there you click on the tool box on the side of Samsung keyboard

Nothing in there for auto correct... I just downloaded the Jelly Bean 4.2 Keyboard but now I don't have my numbers on the keyboards "Home"
Your not crazy my friend. Mine wont auto correct either. Setting are set for predictive text but like u said it doesnt actually apply the correction.

Yel its annoying that there isnt a numbers row but I've got used to long processing the top row in which the alpha characters are shared with numbers.
Its not bad once you get used to it

My keyboard has numbers across the top...or am i not understanding your post? I absolutely love this keyboard just becauseof that feature.
I downloaded perfect keyboard to get autocorrect back but then you lose the ability to use the pen for input
This is pretty crappy on samsung's behalf. A keyboard without autocorrect?

intelinside83 was referring to the lack of a number row on the stock Android 4.2 keyboard. The stock Samsung keyboard is quite different, including the inclusion of the number row.

This really is quite silly of Samsung. The keyboard has auto prediction and in my experience the auto prediction works quite well. The problem is that the keyboard will only input what you actually type regardless of whether or not it's correct. If you want to enter a predicted word you have to tap it yourself. I can't imagine it would be too difficult for Samsung to change the keyboard to favor the top predicted word, which would essentially be auto correct.
I'm still using the Samsung keyboard though because I'm getting along with the Swiftkey flow integration rather nicely.

I'm actually really happy for the number row since I use numbers frequently and it was a pain having to constantly toggle it on/off. And, that auto-correction is disabled as I usually disable it any. Just had to turn off auto-spacing and auto-capitalization because it was wreaking havoc on authenticating into web sites like this one as it was adding a space in-between my password. Good riddance I say...

It is reported that upcoming 4.1.2 (not 4.2) enhancements will include integrated "swyping" functionality into the keyboard so it wouldnt make sense for them not to rectify the autocorrection issue.

Did the stock Sammy JB keyboard in the GS3 have no autocorrect either? Or does that phone still run ICS?
I might just have to switch to Swiftkey or Thumb Keyboard again - but that number row is GREAT - it is hard to turn away from it.
Yeah I went back to the stock samsung keyboard just cuz of the numbers... silly but I'm loving it! Just hooing for auto-correction. Maybe if they dont fix it someone will come out with a 3rd party with numbers!

Yup, no autocorrect. I'm using Swiftkey now.
It seems the Samsung keyboard is actually a variation of the swiftkey flow. I wonder if it's something to do with that. The flow part works pretty well and I love the number row

Just curious what keyboard everyone is using. The S4 is defaulted to the Samsung keyboard which uses SwiftKey, but the S4 also comes with Swype. Are you using one of those, or are you using another? Maybe the SwiftKey or Swype from the market to gain some more options? Another keyboard?
What are you using, and why do you prefer it?

I'm using stock 4.2.2 keyboard because I like the Holo UI look.
Kii. It has the option for the top number row like the stock keyboard, but it has autocorrect. I own Swiftkey also, but I hate it.
I use swiftkey from the market although the stock keyboard is kinda nice with the number row on top
installed the AOSP 4.2.2 keyboard. got so use to it when i was on my nexus, why change..
Check out the Swype keyboard I modded for a dedicated number row:

Hi! Awesome rom. In the rom description, it indicates that there is an emoji keyboard. How do I access this? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Its where you select the keyboard. When you touch a spot to type and the little keyboard comes up in the left hand corner, slide down the notification bar and select it there.
Though for me I just use Kii keyboard its a lot easier and with the emoji keyboard baked in, it works out great

Emoji's not too easy to access. Thanks for the suggestion though. I was using Go SMS Pro with Emoji plugin, which was great, but then I would get duplicate messaging with the default messaging app. If I force stopped the default messaging app, I don't receive picture messaging. Looking for one good solution with easy to access emoji's.
Try Kii keyboard. That's what I'm using and it works well.

Really just long pressing the 123 button and sliding to the smiley face? No problem though. I really like the keyboard bc you can add the numbers to the top row like stock. Just let us know what you find and what works for you

One big change that I noticed on the GE 4.3 was the addition of the emoji keyboard, so I extracted it and put it into my system/app (with the necessary permission (rw/r/r) changes of course!) and tried it out, here it is in case anyone else would like it. Android users are finally able to use Emoji on twitter/Instagram/facebook!
EDIT: Doesn't seem to like Touchwiz or 4.2.2, force closes continuously.

Maybr it also requires some libs? If its working on google edition rom than id say its just missing some libs
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk 2
It seems to work flawlessly in my sgs4, the libs you need is called "libemoji.so" or "libwnn.so" in system/lib.
You cand find it in some thread in the forums, i had it since the first version of jellybean.
The problem I found is that the keyboard doesn't display the emojis, I don't know why, because we have the emoji font already.
Good luck and see a preview

Maybe it requires some frameworks to detect the emoji font in system, but anyways, the new emoji keyboard works very well in my phone.
You can use it on whatsapp for example, but you can't see the emojis you tap in the keyboard.
Well emoji is working good with just the apk and lib...However, its still a hassle to use as you have to enable it under settings, and once enabled you have no access to regular keyboards...now im assuming the google keyboard from 4.3 leak has a shortcut to the emojis however im having dificulty getting it to work on the stock rom, it doesnt seem to want to load when enabled and also causes massive lag throughout the system when enabled...tomorrow ill get a logcat to see what im missing...and hopefully im not wasting my time

Maybe im missing something....the emoji part works as did my other emoji keyboard from 4.3...but what I want is a normal keybiard that has a shortcut to the emojis on the keyboard...that way I dont have to go into my setting every time I want to use an emoji.
Now in the zip I noticed it does have "iWnnIME_Kbd_White.apk" and " iWnnIME.apk" the second is the emoji keyboard...the first looks like its supposed to be a regular keyboard, however it never pops up in my settings as an input method...for you does this install a regular keyboard as well? Or do you also have to go into settings everytime to use the emojis...
Was able to figure out a work around by installing the Google keyboard from the market, deleting all other keyboards including Samsung's and swype, then under settings of both googles and the emoji keyboard check the option "switch to other input methods" this places a new key next to the space bar that when pressed switches to a different input method...you can long press it to select a diff one or just quick press it and it will switch to the next one...by deleting all other keyboards I only have one other keyboard so it by default it just switches between the Google keyboard and emoji now

I still can't see emojis in keyboard or interface, I only can see some symbols and squares. What could be my problem??
Can I check whether you're sure that you extracted this iWnnIME.apk from the system apps in Android 4.3?
Reason why I'm asking is that iWnn IME is actually a 3rd party IME that's available in Play Store (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.co.omronsoft.iwnnime.ml.sc04d&hl=en). I find it difficult to believe that Google would include it as a bundled IME in their factory images.
Can you verify this? Thank you.

I prefer swype like interface.
I have used both swiftkey (before swype-like interface) and afterwards, swype, thumb keyboard, and Slideit.
I prefer using swiftkey slightly.
Swype is probably the best in regards to sliding.
Slideit is nice but has a slight lag that messes me up.
Swiftkey has some predictive stuff which can both help or hinder.
I think you can't go wrong with any of the above 3.
For tablets, I just use thumb keyboard.
for me either stock 4.2 keyboard or samsung galaxy s4's keyboard love them both
I like the stock keyboard and Google keyboard from the market. The stock keyboard is tough to type with after having a number of drinks

Haha. I use SwiftKey, in Pitch color scheme. Jelly Bean keyboard https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jlsoft.inputmethod.latin.jelly.free is great too. Just like the stock Google keyboard but with more secondary functions on the keys.
As someone who purchased both swype and swiftkey, I personally use the Samsung keyboard, though I must add that I took the apk from the international version and changed some things to make it work how I wanted it to. Currently I m testing the Google keyboard from the 4.3 leak and its pretty good, haven't used it very long though.

I've used SwiftKey for nearly a year now. I did try the 4.2 stock keyboard for a week or two but found my way back to SwiftKey. The predictive capabilities are phenomenal and can really save you time.
I like the stock Samsung key board. The numbers on top are great. My only concern is the dictionary. I have added words to the Samsung dictionary, but they still dont show up when texting. Has anyone had success with adding words to the dictionary?
