I’ve done exactly as you said in my rooted one m8, but after all, nothing happens..
It’s only for lollypop devices.
This keyboard only works on touchwiz 5(Lollipop) based roms as I read in xda developers. not any other roms. So this rom can be installed only on samsung devices.
Go to settings > Language & Input and switch the keyboard.
not everything in Samsung Galaxy S6 Keyboard APK?
I am installing this keyboard on my galaxy Grand 2. I have downloaded this apk file but there is no app folder under system as u mentioned above. There is only one folder under system is temp. What should I do?
There is always an app folder under system folder. So look carefully. What file explorer are you using?
Under the App folder, I haven’t seen the SamsungIME folder, do I have to create one, and just put the apk there?
Are you rooted?
Default file exploree which comes with TouchWiz launcher
Have you rooted your phone because you will need a Root File Manager. Personally I use ES File Explorer, it’s free on Play Store.
I have rooted my Grand 2 but still there is no app folder under system. I tried with both ES File explorer as well as Root Browser but result was same. . what should I do right now?
There is always an app folder where are stored all the apk files of your installed apps.
It doesn’t work for me, too =(
I did it like you wrote in your description =(
What phone do you have and what Android version is it using?
4.4.4 on my Samsung Galaxy S4, using CM11
It will work only only on Lollipop ROMs. So I suggest to install CM12 and then try again..
it’s dose not work for me also. I’m using grand 2 which is rooted phone and running on official KitKat 4.4.2. Please help me.
Tried doing it on rooted nexus 6 running stock android 5.1
Not working on my rooted Note 4, followed instructions to the letter, and now my original keyboard doesnt work.
People, This apk ONLY! works on Lollipop Touchwiz Roms!
So pretty much only S4, S5, Note 3, Note 4.
If this doesn’t work on Samsung Galaxy S4 CM12.1 (LOLLIPOP) ??
i am using a xiaomi device with ressurection remix rom based on lollipop 5.1.1. and yes ,there is system/app folder. will this keyboard work or not?
No it won’t. It will work only on TouchWiz ROMS.
Tried it on my s4 and set permission. Keep getting an error message of unfortunately not working. Lost my original keyboard now as well!
There is no SamsungIME Folder
What permissions I have to give same ..
Permission is RW R R. This is called permission. U can use Root Explorer or ES file explorer. Personally i use Root Explorer
this is work on 4.4.4 stock rom?
Can i download this on kitkat ?
I missed the part where it’s mentioned that only Lollipop roms support this keyboard.
Flashed it on my i9082 with 4.2.2 stock rom.
Is there any way I can retrieve my stock keyboard?
Looked up on xda and found the SamsungIME.apk as well as a .odex
I’m wondering if it’s the lib that got replaced that’s not making the new stock keyboard work.
Hi, will this work on the samsung galaxy A5 ? – Thanks.
I would like to know whether this APK can install other brand of android phone, for example ZTE, Sony and etc?
I plan to install to my ZTE, and it is an android 5.0 version of phone. How to do, is that i must going to root my phone 1st？
Do you mind to guide me how to root a phone in easily way?
This apk will work only on TouchWiz ROMs.
is there a way to make emotion icon larger ?
it’s very small on s4.
for rooted phones only ?
So can u pls change the title to Only Samsung devices? Ur title misleads peoples here.. If its only for Samsung devices then u should change ur title my friend.. I have tried it in my Xperia Z2 LP 5.1.1 rooted ( my own custom rom) and not working.. My name is Rajeev and i am from XDA Developers
Thank you for letting me know that this doesn’t work on other devices. Since I use a Samsung device by myself I haven’t tried it on other phones. I can’t change the title because it’s indexed by Google but I put a note on the article so people will see that this will work only on Samsung devices.
Thanks for ur prompt reply my friend.. I really like the S6 keyboard. U have done a great job.. Thanks again..
I think, your post titile should be rewritten. It is not for any Android phone. It is for (1) Touch wizard = Samsung phones only (2) Lollipop only.
this won’t copy to my samsungime folder on my note 4 running rooted 5.1.1
use Root Fx File Explorer with Root enable Read write.. then copy but rename the old file or u will lose your old keyboard ok
Hi there, I followed the instructions.. Copied the downloaded files to it’s respective folders. Checked the permissions, rw-r-r. Rebooted and select Samsung Keyboard and an error popped up, ‘Unfortunately, Samsung keyboard has stopped.’
My device is Note 3 SM-N9005 running Lollipop (BOK1), rooted, used ES File Explorer file manager but still failed to run.
Are there any other steps I missed?
Thanx.

Hi Dori. I have installed this on my Galaxy Tab S 8.4 on rooted stock 5.0.2. It has installed successfully, but it gets forced closed (Sorry, Samsung Keyboard has stopped) every time I try to open the keyboard or keyboard settings.
I’ve installed both files in the correct locations with rw- r– r– permissions.
Do you know how to fix this?
Warning
This keyboard will work only in Samsung devices with Touchwiz Lollipop 5.0 +. Do not try it in any other device because it won’t work.###
So why would someone want to root their samsung phone just to install samsung keyboard?
