Is your Tab S rooted? If so then someone can probably help you figure it out. Other than that there may be a setting for that. Should check the keyboard settings. (Make sure you quote me when you respond. Otherwise I won't know)

Isnt the iron rom for the t800 10 inch versions of the tab S? Which version of ironrom are you using? I see 2
Sent from my SM-G925P using Tapatalk

I use SwiftKey and it opens up normally. I can't think of any feature the Samsung keyboard has that isn't as good or better on SwiftKey, and the text prediction is WAY better as well as the ability to use many different themes.

If you want themes just check my Samsumg Keyboards out

I love SwiftKey. It gets better the more you use it too because the text prediction adapts quickly.

is it possible to grab the original keyboard from eclair? i mean through this method:
revert to stock 2.1
use root explorer then copy the keyboard's apk from system/app
paste the apk to sd card
flash gdx.
install the apk from eclair.
i downloaded the keyboard from the link, no option for setting it as keyboard. not working.
That's the best keyboard human beings have ever seen! After long search i'm enjoing it in Gingercrutz. Thanks to Master Frogy! He sure understood that SE appearance is the most elegant and usable interface.

when you are typing (during sms etc.) long press the settings button and choose chinese keyboard.
When I bought my X8 there is 2 keyboard already installed. The stock and Chinese Keyboard. I don't know if we can call it stock because when I factory reset via Settings the Chinese Keyboard disappears.

[Request][Q]Keyboard to rival iOS?

Hi guys,
I've been loyal to android for about a year now, but I only have one complaint: The keyboard
Typing on iOS is easy and great, even on a small screen. Why don't we have a keyboard with that fluid usability? I've tried Swype (prefer typing), Swiftkey X, the TW4 Keyboard, stock GB keyboard, and Thumb keyboard and they all seem to disappoint a little in the shadow of iOS's keyboard.
So my question is: Is anyone working on or thinking about working on a keyboard with iOS-like functionality? I'd honestly pay $5 to download a keyboard that works like the iPhone's.
If you have any keyboard suggestions, post them below.
While I am unable to post the keyboard - as I don't have it myself - apparently the keyboard on the Galaxy S2 in Korea is the best. No issues with the patents held here in the US by Apple, so the accuracy is the same as it is with iOS.
If anyone can find it, pull it, set up an apk that will work with other Android phones, it would be appreciated!

Depends on the responsiveness of your phone actually. I have an iPod touch 4g, and I like it so much better than any android phone I've owned.

HAHA! That is why we are trying to get the other keyboard. It is (apparently) very much like the iOS keyboard and should be responsive and very accurate. I saw someone state that their accuracy went from 80% with the Android default to about 95% with the Samsung Philippians keyboard.

Not sure. I have to get the keyboard to see if it can be used on any other phone with stock ROM first. There may be a device check on the keyboard, though I do not know at the moment.
Need a daring person to try this app out. I found it from the Philippine Samsung Galaxy S2 Rom on this site. I cannot install it because I have the Samsung Keyboard already and it won't overwrite my current one - I need to root when it is good to go for the Epic Touch.
Let us know how it works.

parse error or just application did not install?
Thumb Keyboard
I keep going back to Thumb Keyboard, it seems to have the best autocorrect and is the quickest. Also, try A.I. type, although I don't like it, I know many who do.
There's an emulator in the market. It's $4.50.

Amazing launcher, but I noticed some bug fixes that may make it perfect if they were solved:
- System is spelled wrong when adding widgets:
Clicked to add systme widget you want"
- Wallpapers are over stretched in landscape mode in Galaxy Tab 7.7
- Home button will not return to home screen in desktop.
- Performence (Scrolling) is degraded when running live wallpaper (Maybe hardware acceleration solve the problem )

Just managed to get round to installing it, doesn't seem to be any new features, probably just bug fixes.
They really do need someone translating the English for them properly, as the titles of various parts of the app, isn't exactly great.

How do I get rid of this icon? It's annoying. Anytime I have to type something its there.... It happened a few days after I install SwiftKey and even if I un install SwiftKey and use samsung keyboard it is still there.... I remember when I used aokp rom this would happen but there was a disable icon in settings.... Can't find it here.

This is due to ICS. AFAIK you can't remove it.

Find the corresponding icon in either the systemui or framework-res and replace it with a empty icon.

it's there to allow you to switch input methods. i use it quite often going between Swype, stock and Japanese.
Sent from my Galaxy S III
Exactly, I have certain apps that don't play well with Swype as the input method so it's nice to be able to quickly switch to stock.
How is an icon annoying? Why are you even looking at it if you're typing currently?
Because I know what keyboard I'm using.... If I wanted to change it I would go to settings.... Not go to my task bar. I don't want to be reminded of it every time I type... And saying why are you looking at it? Don't be stupid. That area is for notifications not useless icons. Would u want a camera icon there when you used camera, Gmail, etc???? No you would not.

It's so fluid and great typing on it, only if I could find how to save custom words!
I got this from Android Police too, it works well but it'll take a bit of getting used to coming from swype, as to do double letters in swype you just did a little squiggle or w/e on the letter, but you don't do it at all when using this
Thank you! The keyboard is legit!
Wow I just switched to this keyboard and it works amazing. So far I live this and the new gmail app from 4.2 I hope that other features are following as well.

Is the Android Keyboard capable of having three languages picked at the same time? Because I type/text in 3 different languages, and I hate it when I'm typing in Serbian, the keyboard auto-corrects to English. SwiftKey has this feature where all 3 can be active at the same time.
I don't think this keyboard is better than samsung's yet. Samsung's keyboards accuracy with spen is not beaten yet

ist a shame its not working on all languages
How to you do two of the same letter? In swype you draw a circle.
For instance I cant seem to spell supper, it will only spell super then I have to open the menu and find supper
Hated swype but this is absolutely amazing. Google took something and made it better.
It would be nice if you could get the stock keyboard for when the Spen is out. and a custom one when the spen is in is dock
