[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phuyuk:
IMPORTANT UPDATE: I HAVE RESOLVED THIS ISSUE BY DOING THE FOLLOWING:

1) Root the SM-P900 using ODIN. (it's a breeze to do - just follow the directions!)

2) Install TWRP recovery and then do a

full

TWRP backup of your device.

3) Download & Install the new "Hyperdrive Note Pro 12.2 KK RLS1.1" ROM from here:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-note-pro-12/development/rom-hyperdrive-kk-rls1-tab-s-t2986949

Follow the directions for installing this ROM very closely. As recommended, FULLY WIPE your device -

everything except the external SD card

-

BEFORE

installing the new ROM.

4) Download the AOSP "MAIL" APK and "Exchange Services" APK from here: *SEE NOTES BELOW

http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/exchange-services/exchange-services-6-2-1158763-apk/

http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/email/email-6-3-1218562-apk/

These are "Exchange Services 6.2-1158763" and "Email 6.3-1218562", respectively. (These are the last stock, Android versions before the forced upgrade/merge to Gmail)

5) Install (side-load) the Exchange Services APK and then Email APK - from whatever folder you downloaded the files to.

* NOTES:

A) Side-loading is necessary because the Play Store will recognize that you have an SM-P900 and won't allow the install. It has nothing to do with compatibility, but rather agreements made between Samsung and Google (and likely Apple, as well), to prevent you from doing this.

B) Replacing the Samsung Email with AOSP Email is required for a

complete

fix because the Samsung app seems to side-step the re-enabling of the red-underline spell-check. In other words, your new, working spell check will work nearly everywhere -

except

inside the stock Samsung Email app!

C) These are NOT the most recent versions of Exchange and Mail, but they are the last ones before GMAIL swallowed MAIL - and I prefer the stock AOSP MAIL. If you install a higher version, you will be forced to 'upgrade' to the GMAIL app during installation. It's up to you, of course.

I'M SURE YOU WILL BE AS HAPPY AS I AM - FINALLY!

PLEASE DONATE TO THE DEVELOPER, sbreen94

- HE'S DONE SOMETHING REALLY GOOD AND INVESTED A LOT OF TIME FOR A VERY ESOTERIC DEVICE - THE P900 - WITH A SMALL USER-BASE.

THE ROM PROVIDES MUCH, MUCH MORE THAN A SPELLING-CORRECTION FIX - THAT'S JUST MY THING. OUT-OF-THE-BOX, THIS ROM IS STOCK TOUCHWIZ - EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE USED TO, INCLUDING FULL S-PEN SUPPORT AND ALL THE SAMSUNG APPS (OR WHICHEVER ONES YOU WANT - YOU CAN CHOISE DURUNG JNSTALL).

HOWEVER, IT 'UNLOCKS' TW AND ALLOWS YOU TO TWEAK MANY VISUAL AND FUNCTIONAL ASPECTS, TO YOUR LIKING. AS THE DEVELOPER SAYS ABOUT THE ROM...

"Touchwiz how I think it should be: The latest Samsung Tab S Software features as well as a Fully Customizable User Interface on the fly as well as excellent performance and battery life."

LASTLY, BE AWARE THAT THIS ROM IS

SPECIFICALLY FOR THE SM-P900 NOTE PRO 12.2

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'm desperate! I can type faster and with fewer mistakes on my puny, 5-year-old iPhone 3GS than I can on my HUGE Note Pro 12.2 horizontal keyboard. Predictive text is retarded. I'm tired of fighting with auto-replace. All I want is a little red line under each of my misspelled words, like in the old days - before Samsung crippled Android. I've tried Anysoft, Hacker's, Google,... as Gordon Gecko once said, "different dog, same fleas".

I've stock-rooted the tablet with CF. What next? I'll install any mod or keyboard that does this simple thing. I don't care about the warranty, or if the UI ends up looking like Windows 1.0 and sharp pins jump out at every virtual key-press, puncturing my fingertips as I type - just show me the misspelled words before I click 'Send'!

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
