too bad doesn't work for Note 2 v4.3 leak
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] SportingChap:
As in TouchWiz ROMs only? No AOSP? :(

Edit: only asking because it doesn't seem to be working for me. The correct input app is selected in the notification chooser, but the correct input app itself doesn't load.

So for example, if I reattach the S-Pen right now, the chooser will show Swiftkey, but Stylus Beta is still the active keyboard.

[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] 1berlin:
I installed this app on my N5110 (FW 4.1.2) as well, but it stops, saying "SPenBoard Switcher angehalten/ stopped" as far as I enable the "Enable Switcher Service" and leave the configuration menü. As the default keyboard I'm currently using Swiftkey Tablet 4.1.3.149.

My device is rooted and I freezed a couple of Google-& Sync-Services via Titanium. Does the app need a special service for running ?

Any ideas what the reason for the problem is ?

I have the problem that on my Note 3 even if I kill off the notofication in Settings the notif comes at every reboot and I have to turn it on and off again...
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] LegendK95:
To keep the service running, a notification must be there. Prior to android 4.3, the system could be tricked by giving it an empty notification, which won't be shown. Android 4.3 fixed this problem, and there is currently no way to keep the service from being killed.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] My1xT:
But the service works even when I kill off the notification in the settings, but the thing is why CAN this app even put out a notification when I said "no"???

[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] LegendK95:
That's what's pissing a lot of people off. I really don't have a clue why it does return after a reboot, I hope this thing is fixed in KitKat.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] My1xT:
And the app can not somehow utilize its root rights to keep on???

Gesendet von meinem SM-N9005 mit Tapatalk
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] LegendK95:
Actually, no. Root rights only give the application access to root terminal, and can't give it system permissions per say.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] My1xT:

couldnt you maybe use the terminal to input a "Whitelist" for the killer which stops killing it???

Hey mate just a thought, why don't you replace the notification icon with a small transparent one. If it has to stay there on 4.3 it's not so intrusive and noticeable then. I was about to do it myself but thought if you do there will be many appreciative users.

It works great by the way :thumbup:

Virus?

Hi All,

I find SPenBordSwitcher quite interesting and downloaded from xda-developers.

I've just installed this app then my anti-virus "Clean Master" has detected a virus "Android.MALWARE.at_installerapp.a".

Is it a real or false alert? Has anyone had this problem?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] LegendK95:
Hmmm interesting.

The app is used to install the main app into /system/app/ which can't be done using regular installation, and this is the cause of the problems.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] MyForumer:
Virus?

Sorry, I am not an expert.

- Is there a virus in this app or not? I had this alert only with the app downloaded from xda-developers site.

- There is no alert when the app is downloaded from Google Play ... unfortunately the app doesn't work with my Note 2 (v. 4.3) :(
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] LegendK95:
Of course it doesn't.

The app you download contains the main app, it then extracts the main app to the sdcard and moves it to /system/app/ directory to gain rights to be able to switch the keyboard.

I will think of another way I can extract the app to /system/app/ to get rid of the problems everyone is facing.

Nothing works after Kitkat update...

First of all, Thank You so much for this app!

It worked very fine for me on my Galaxy Note 3.

But now, I updated the system to Android 4.4. 2 Kitkat and nothing works.

I've tried to restart after installing the .apk, tried to install, uninstall and install again but nothing helped out!!!

I do have root permission.

Please help me if you know how to solve my problem!

Thanks in advance...
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] MyForumer:
Virus or no virus?

I am not an expert, please help me to understand.

- Why there is an alert for virus when I install the app downloaded from XDA Developer and no alert when the app is installed from Google Play?

- From "CM Cleanmaster" Forum I've got the info and could scan the app downloaded from XDA Developer and a virus has been found. Please see: apkscan.nviso.be/repor/show/753e6cefd5208927a0e3ff4154c779bb :confused::confused::confused:

After I deinstalled the Version 3 because I thought there is no way to get rid of the notification icon, I cant get it to work anymore.

Still the app crashes everytime I try to install it.

I am using latest OMEGA Rom btw.

Wolfseye
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] My1xT:
to to check /data/data for the s-pen boardswitcher folder (foldername=package name) and delete it.

also for the notification icon you could use xposed module notifyclean.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] wpkwolfseye:
Thanks, tried that. Still crashes every single time I wanna start the app. I give up. :(

Wolfseye
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] My1xT:
maybe kill the cache, I heard that that solves such problems...
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] LegendK95:
Well you have two solutions:

First:

- Open the Apk using Winrar/7zip, go to res/raw/ and extract spenboardswitcher.png to a folder.

- Rename the spenboardswitcher.png to spenboardswitcher.apk

- Use a root capable browser to move it to /system/priv-app/ (solid explorer is awesome!)

- Give it permissions of 644, and ownership of root:root

Second:

- Let the app crash

- Send me a logcat
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] My1xT:
Well Ture story, solid is best
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] wpkwolfseye:
Tried your first solution, but I have to say I don't understand that. After I did that, what now ? Its not installed that way, at least I dont find it in the App drawer after that. Thats correct right ?

Sorry, not good at these things.

Wolfseye
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] My1xT:
but still why try to rename an image to an apk and trying to install that???
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] LegendK95:
Yeah the installer app is the one who should launch the main app, can you please do the second solution and send me a logcat?
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] LegendK95:
The app works this way:

The main app needs certain permissions to work, which only can be obtained if it's in system/priv-app/ (/system/app/ prior to KitKat).

So a solution I came up with is using an installer, which extracts the main app to the needed directory to obtain permissions.

Now the spenboardswitcher.png is not an image, it's actually the apk of the main app. I use .png so that it can't be compressed.

The installer app extracts, renames and places the main app in the location it should be in.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] My1xT:
hm... a feint to trick android...

this looks intrsting. maybe put an extra manual install guide and attach the apk in the first post or alike...
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] diminou91:
So in order to make it work I have to delete the .asec file in /data/app-asec. Then I reinstalled the installer and everything work fine! Thanks again for this app, I will buy it when I can :)

[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Raffigator:
I really like this app.

Note to LegendK95 : would be nice to have the possibility to choose also keyboard when the spen is outside but not use to type.

To explain : by default (spen inside) I use SwiftKey. When Spen is out, I use Samsung keyboard, which is able to identify when we use finger (in this case the Samsung keyboard is shown) and when we use the spen (in this case the spen - handwriting is shown). It would be wonderful if I can use SwiftKey when spen is out, and using finger. Handwriting only activated when spen is touching screen...

Problem on GT-N7105T

Hi there,

I have tried to install this app on rooted GT-N7105T (AU 4G) Note 2 with last version of stock firmware (4.3), installed directly from the original zip file in CWM Recovery. The program has been installed, but when I am trying to start it, it shows up for just a flicker of a moment and finishes with a message: Unfortunately, SPenBoard Switcher has stopped.

Do anyone guess, if there is any fox for this? It may be problem of Knox...

Thanks for any help. The program is exactly what I was looking for, and it is a real pity that after all the searching for the right app I can' now use it... :)

how can I configure it or run it?
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] springer.music:
If you want to manually install it' just download the zip file and extract it (for example you could use RAR for Android from the Play Store).

Then manually move the 2 APKs to the correct folders, fix the permissions and reboot.

---------- Post added at 08:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:34 AM ----------

I've clean-installed CM11 a number of times, and I've always used this zip to install Spen Board Switcher without any issue.

I assume you're using Trebuchet as a launcher. I would clear the launcher's cache and restart it to see whether the app gets then listed in the drawer.

Or simply install another launcher (e.g. Nova Launcher) and see whether it shows the app in the drawer. If it does, then the user apk is correctly installed.

Last tip: go to the second post of this thread, grab the SpenBoardSwitcherInstaller3.apk from the OP and install it. This should install just the user app.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] mbze430:
downloading from Post #2 does install.. However force Close/crash every time just like version 2.0 on my GT-N5110 running CM11.

There must have been some "residue" of the spen switchboard 2 in my tablet... erased everything that had to do with spenboard and it works fine now.

Thanks been waiting for this for a very long time for CM11
