Samsung Keyboard: comma on the left of spacebar - Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was watching a video on YouTube about the phone and I saw that the guy has a comma between the setup button and the space bar. I do not have it and I found no option.
PS: I have a theme applied that's why the keyboard looks flat.

Seems like you use google keyboard, you need to use samsun keyboard.

Here it is.

And here..

Really that's a mystery...

No comma

Press and hold your settings button and a pop up will open so that you can select a comma or emoticons or other things ?

This I know but it's not what I want.
As you can see from others' screenshots, I want an extra comma button between the gear button and the space bar.

If you are able to change the dpi, try lower dpi. My dpi is at 460.

I don't think the guy in the video has non standard dpi

By the way, do you have problems with these dpi

No, everything is ok.

Tried... Camera app looks messy, dialer looks messy...
... and comma still not there
Which version of the keyboard do you have? Mine is 4.0

I am not rooted

Yes mine is also 4.0..

OT... If I root, besides Knox/warranty (am in Italy and whateverPay don't work) do I loose anything, like all my data?

Weird Browser quirk... Stock or Dolphin

So this is something that kinda bothers me.
After Damage Control's V1 (2.1) this is pretty much the only thing I can think of to ***** about
If you're in the browser, at some random web page, and you press the search hard button... there is no damn space bar! The search button does bring up the search bar, but you have to goto the symbols just to press the space after each button. Its a real PITA.
Is this something that would be difficult to fix?

Uhmm I'm on Darchlegend V4, and when I hit search I comes up with the spacebar, but it's about half the size, and looks like an under bracket

Are you pressing search while IN THE BROWSER? The search works fine in any other program. Just not in the browser.
I just nand'ed back to my 1.5 modaco rom and it is the same way... no space bar.

It's probably the HTC STOCK keyboard that's causing this, because in Darch's rom he has the stock android keyboard in it.

Yah that's because of the keyboard. Download the Android keyboard, and you should have a spacebar.

I can confirm this happens in a vanilla install of DamageControl V1.0 -espresso- I can also confirm that this did not happen with my stock 1.5 build.
Do you folks think this is a 2.1 bug from HTC that is affecting ALL 2.1 roms sporting sense and the HTC keyboard then?
Is it something that can be easily fixed in the code?

Just press the Search button twice.

Indeed!
The first "search" brings up the URL search and URL keyboard. It is designed for searching URLs and space is not a valid character in URL. Note that the
text in the search box says "Search or type URL".
Pressing "search" again, calls up a normal text search, and thus you get the keyboard with a space, and the text in the search box says "Quick Search Box".
Therefore, it's not a bug or an omission - it is by design.

Dave

Thats exactly what i was gonna say! The first search option for websites doesnt include the spacebar cuz there is never a space is a url... therefore this is a misunderstanding of how the software functions. A different keyboard will not change how the browser's search function works. It will still by default show url searches first. Changing browsers may help...

If you swype off the top of the keyboard it will capitalise that letter for you.
You can access the number pad by hitting sym, then long tapping the same key.
If you need to pluralise a word (ie word becomes word's) then type in "word" then swype 's and it will do it nicely for you.
ive got a question. if you swype one letter. for example "u". it gives you four options.
Up (light blue)
Us (white_
Usa (white)
U (dark blue)
my question, is there a quicker way to select the dark blue option other than touching it? because most of the time i want that option not the top.
cheers

Just ignore the pop up and continue to swype the next word. The word in blue will be selected by default.

yes the light blue word is selected automatically if you keep swyping.. but i want the dark blue..
Excellent tips. Thanks people.
Thanks guys, this really is USEFULL stuff!
That first tip seems as though it may be quite useful.
I have a problem that probably only applies when using Swype in Swedish. Whenever I type a single 'i', it is automatically made uppercase... in swedish a single i means 'in' and should not be uppercase.. almost feels like a bug.
anyone know a way around this?
Those are two great tips! Especially the first I wonder why they didn't include that in the interactive Swype tutorial? The tutorial was otherwise quite useful.

...Swipe your finger from Options (i) button to SYM and you get a very nice set of keys to move the cursor, cut/copy/paste, etc....

swipe from letter "i" down to space bar and your "i" will not be capitalized.

Volume/Search button on X10

Anyone actually know how to use it as a search button? I thought it would be long press or press the whole button down, or something like that, but can't figure it out.
Long press menu button (left button) is search on the X10.
Edit: I think the magnifying glass image means zoom

o'wow thanks!! I didn't know that it's been bugging me for months, and I always knew the keyboard was there, I just thought it was stupid having a popup keyboard, when the keyboard would always pop up when you could type lol
(now I know why...)

lol, i didn't know that either. But i guess it's not fully functioning
I tried it in ASTRO and i can get only the results from the 1st letter i type. ( i mean i can't continue and type the hole word like "bluetooth" or "music" it just register the 1st letter like "b" or "m" )
Oh wow! I thought that was a glitch! Thanks for the info
lol i love how se tries to improves the ui so that every1 thinks their features are bugs^^
btw thanks a lot for the info - i always used the button to hide the keyboard (but it didnt work very well )

I was looking into that as well. I've installed CyangenMod and was missing the Samsung Keyboard.
Now i switched to the Google Keyboard (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2312179) which is basically the same. Still, the top row with numbers is missing, but now you've got more space

Swype one handed?

Has anyone figured out how to enable one-handed mode on the built in Swype keyboard?? I see they've added that option to their latest update on the play store, yet there is no such option in settings.
This must be a gimped version.. =/ any workarounds to do this?
TIA!

The Samsung swipe is horribly inaccurate. Out of all the different swipe keyboards I've used, Swype is just the most accurate.
I just paid for the app, and now I have one handed available. Now with all the "hacks" I've enabled, I can use the phone totally one handed.

Cool
Press the other buttons
On my swype, you have to hold down the button that has "?123" on it. If you look closely it has a little arrow icon on it. That opens the keyboard movement options from left and right. Couldn't find options anywhere else
