Samsung Cover / Physical Keyboard Spell Check / Predictive Typing - Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 / S7 Plus Questions & Answer

I understand that "spell checking or predictive typing might be a different using a physical keyboard but I have NO spell check of any kind when I use the Samsung OEM cover / keyboard. I have seen some responsees in other places regarding this but I hve not found a fix that works for me yet.
Anyone else have this problem and a fix??
LOL even when I initially started this thread the keyboard allowed me to type Speel check as the title

Hi
Yes I have the same problem. I cant find spell check in the settings.
I have original samsung book cover keyboard

Have you tried installing a different software keyboard like Gboard and setting that to the default? I wonder if autocorrect on the hardware keyboard works better if you do that?

Premium Samsung S series tablet and phones haven't external keyboard spelling check in year 2022, and Nokia 6110 is out of stock. Congratulations to Samsung... they are really good by looking of user of premium quality

[Q] Where has "Input Method" gone?

I'm fighting trying to get an external Bluetooth keyboard to work with my device, but in doing so have discovered that I no longer have "Input Method" under "Language and keyboard settings". Can anyone please advise how to get it back?
I don't use an external keyboard, but I have never seen input method in the Language and keyboard settings page.
To change the input method you have to long press in any text box.
More info here on setting the default keyboard. The article was written for a different phone, but the principals are the same.
I am not sure if using an external keyboard works differently.
Sorry I shouldn't have confused the issue by mentioning the external keyboard. Forget the external keyboard! I do have second soft keyboard installed (Swype), so there ought to be an "Input Method" menu to allow me to select between it and the Android Keyboard.
However ... long-pressing within text boxes does indeed bring up the Input method menu, so at least I have a workaround. Many thanks for that.
I am a keyboard junkie and have eight keyboards installed and have never seen an input method setting on the Language and keyboard settings page.

Since that article was published in Aygust of 2010 I would guess that that setting was part of Dell's Android 1.6 rom on the Streak. My Streak was shipped to me with Android 2.2 so I have never used the 1.6 rom. Looking at some of the pics in the other guides on that site it looks like 1.6 to me.
Here is the keyboard guide at StreakSmart
You know what, I think you've just answered my question. That's where it disappeared to, then; when I upgraded from 1.6 to 2.2!
Many thanks indeed

It's all perception. Since you had 1.6, the setting disappeared. Since I never had 1.6 I wasn't missing what I didn't have. Glad you figured it out and, as usual, the discussion taught me something.
Ditto. Totally

Thumb Keyboard problem

Lets say I'm typing something and the last word is "end." If I hit enter to start a new line but then decide I want to add something to the previous sentence I would move the cursor back to the last word "end" and hit space... instead of inserting a space, it will insert the same word again "end"
So it looks like this "endend"
Anyone else have this problem
yeah i get that as well.
Yeah. Same here. It is annoying.

I sent an email to the dev and explained the problem. He said he'd look into it. Do u think its fair to ask for a refund since it doesnt even work properly for us?
I'm having the same problem with Thumb Keyboard, I also installed Swiftkey X for Tablets and it has the same issue. Did anyone find anything out on this?
are you guys talking about in the notes app. because I get the same thing but only in the notes app. for example I typed this using thumbkeyboard and tried to replicate the issue and didn't have the problem. but when I typed this in notes I did have the problem.

I too am only having an issue with the notes app. When I tested in gmail, the browser(in a contact text field), in evernote and all worked fine.
I can confirm the issue happens with swiftkey x
I also tested it with smart Keyboard pro and I didnt experience this issue.
Man, there is nothing more annoying than seeing the question you are thinking of, pop up almost word for word on google....then seeing that the only responses are "I am having the same problem!" Come on, so NO one knows how to fix when you are typing, and (for example) want to add a letter to the middle of a word, like you want to add a "E" to death, and the cursor automatically goes to the end of the word instead of actaully putting the letter where you want it.
Does ANYONE have a clue what settings the Tumbkeyboard needs set to in order o not have the cursor jump to the end of a word?
I gave up on thumb keyboard... really made typing difficult with the double words. Kii keyboard is where it's at now.
i'm the same issue
That's strange : I don't have this issue with mine (SwiftKey X tab last version) !

BT Profiles and Keyboards

Hi. First of all I DID search for answers to this but could only find old threads and nothing related to the Flyer.
I found a Think Outside Stowaway Shasta Keyboard (oriented for blackberries) for a very good price and I was wondering if it'd be compatible with the Flyer. Does anyone know if the Flyer is compatible with HID or SPP keyboards? I know it can be paired with the XOOM and the Apple iPad one but I couldn't find which protocols those use. I really want a folding keyboard since I want full-size functionality but like how when folded it will fit anywhere the Flyer fits (making it a great match for portability). I also found an HP iPaq folding bluetooth keyboard and a Think Outside Dell rebranded Stoaway (earlier model than the Shasta) but both more expensive.
Well, thanks in advance for any help you guys might provide regarding profiles and bluetooth compatibility with keyboards.
On a side note I hope anything compatible with the Flyer is also compatible with the Sensation.
Thanks again.
I have a ThinkOutside BT keyboard and will try to remember to test it out tomorrow

I'd greatly appreciate that. Thanks.
Basic keyboard protocol is handled by the flyer and pairing is done buy first typing a pin into the tablets dialogue box then typing the same pin on the keyboard followed by return.

I know how pairing works. The question is whether it uses HID bluetooth profile or SPP Bluetooth profiles or both in order to work with the keyboard. Folding keyboards use one or the other but few use both so I want to make sure the one on offer would work with the flyer. I would prefer not to depend on a program like KeyPro to maybe get it to work.
I have an old hid keyboard (stowaway) and it works like a charm... If you want to write in English. If you want to write with accents or special characters, such as Spanish, you need to long press the physical key and then choose the accented vowel on the screen for instance, which is quite uncomfortable
I'm typing this post from my logitech BT keyboard made for honeycomb. Have had no issues with syncing to my stock flyer. Only downside is that while in landscape the up/down arrows are used to move left to right rather than uing the standard arrow keys.

Thanks. Thankfully I mostly work in English. My flyer's also in English so I'm not sure how easy it would be to change the keyboard functionality to Spanish even if it were a Spanish layout (though the bilingual text prediction might come in handy for those times I need it).
i want to know if some one could make the wiimote to function with the flyer
Yep, paired right up. Home key worked, basic typing worked well. Many of the other keys (email for example) did not work. I'll probably take flyer & keyboard in addition to laptop next time I travel to see how much I really need the laptop.

apk from other devices?

My wife has an Atrix and I have a GSII. She likes my Samsung keyboard and a couple other apk's that are on in my phone. Can I use those on the Atrix or is there a compatibility problem?
Also, any suggestions on the best keyboard? Her keys seem so small.
From some research, it looks like installing these type system app is a little difficult. Any guigence would be appreciated

Keyboards will definitely have a compatability issue, most others will as well

There are plenty of alternative keyboards on the Market, there's even one that let's you change the keyboard skin and sound to resemble that on the SGS2 or even iPhone. I don't remember exactly which one was it but I think it was Ultra Keyboard, Keyboard Pro or Go Keyboard. Look it up on the Market.
For the other APKs, I'm not sure which apps you are referring to.
Cheers!

Asus Keyboard on pad -- issue/question

Hi, I searched this forum and didn't find what I wanted.
After using the Asus Keyboard on my 300t, I noticed that the swype like action is only functional under certain conditions. When Browsing, using SuperNote, or Polaris office, it works very well. BUT when I use another apk--- say with a simple AutoCompleteTextView field, I only can hen peck.
Does anyone know how to enable a apk to fully utilize the Asus Keyboard.
I found this annoying too. I've installed Swype (beta) and found it works well, much better than Asus' attempt.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
Unfortunately in my case using theTF300T' swype crashes continuously! ANDing to that iiritation' the email support address for the beta of swype bounced, so no support as yet. I still wonder what stops the Asus Keyboard From working on some apps- Does anyone have thoughts on this. ¿

No, I had noticed though and it drove me crazy. Good thing I really only use the dock to type now lol
Really though, no idea. Maybe someone or a dev could pick through the apk's code and offer some insight?

Thus far, I have tried:
AutoCompleteTextView, and
MultiAutoCompleteTextView.
No help.... -- I am guessing that the apk somehow signals to the Asus keyboard, the sort of support it wants. BUT I haven't been able to see any document to that effect, etc. But I will keep looking...
I called tech support at Asus this evening. After a long conversation --- which got me no where, it seems that I will have to wait until someone who has worked more with this Virtual Keyboard, chimes in. I attempted to use hierarchyviewer to look at the widgets in SuperNote for example. BUT since this is not an emulator, I learned that hierarchyviewer is useless with a real device.
I attempted to contact swype once more and I learned a bit more. The latest beta does better, but still have issues. The very latest swype and it now says: display size not supported... But I was able to send a message to the right person, so I am now hopeful that this will be resolved on the 300t.

Hmmm. I know he's sick ATM and everything, but I wonder if we couldn't drop this by Gary and have him move it along the right channels to whoever would be responsible for their exclusive apps? Just seems to me that the feature should work across the board, I don't understand why the one keyboard app should act differently through scenarios (aside from number-only and password fields and such).
I may find the time to take a look at the apk although I'm no programmer lol
If you are rooted, you can install Keyboard Manager from the play store.
That will allow you to automatically switch to the Asus keyboard when you dock and then you should not have as many issues.
I had problems with auto-correct using Swift Key X and the dock. That solved my issues.
Good thought but I don't dock at present. I just hope they fix it!
