Does anyone remember when the stock Samsung Keyboard had white (or at least lighter grey) keys?

In a recent-ish update to the Stock Samsung Keyboard, the keys were changed from the lighter shades above to the "Dark" theme that we have now.
I just rooted my device today and I'm really searching, looking for the lighter themed keyboard APK that will work for my phone.
In a search of all the XDA forums I found some APK and ODEX files from an S4 thread. I tried those using RootExplorer, but they did not work for my AT&T Note 3.
I know that there are apps out there (SwiftKey / Swype/ etc) that allow user to change theme settings. I've tried all of those keyboards and keep coming back the the stock Sammy keyboard. Does anyone have APKs for the old keyboard that they wouldn't mind sharing?
Any help, tips, or advice that you could share would be great.
Thank you.

Try this one.. https://db.tt/duv3VVO8 push to system/app and change permissions and reboot!

BigMase,
Thank you very much for the help. I'm going to try it right now.
Do I need an accompanying "ODEX" file?
I'm assuming permissions are the typicall "rwrr, right?

BigMase, just pushed it, changed permissions and rebooted.
I'm getting keyboard crashes.
Any other tips or hints?

Im really interested to know if this can be done. Any progress on this from the OP?

You can do this. However you must be rooted.

Thanks for sharing Works great!
Gives me a FC when trying to download or update an app. Im using the ROM in my signature.
Edit: Never mind all is good, I deleted the com.android.vending.apk put it back and everything is good. Nice work!
Well done, it works great
Didn't install on my HD2. It says 'Application not installed.'

However, enjoy!
Right Click, then Save As to download
ICS Wallpapers
Install Only
Raw Wallpapers(No APK)
4.0 Market
/system/app/ remove(Regular app), reboot, then replace. Use Root Explorer for this
Galaxy Nexus Bootanimation
Flash with Clockworkmod

Google+ 2 from ICS
If replace does'nt work, uninstall first.
Honeybread theme. (for icons and indicators)
Requires CM7
Lockscreen
There is also a free version
If you want, you can use this Launcher. Functionality is limited (Fake Task Switching), but it will give you the "ICS" look
If i missed anything just let me know.
I've mirrored all these links to my personal site for the time being, links kept expiring

Couldnt install any. Parsing error using File Expert. Noobish so I could be doing something wrong.
mounted system/apps to RW
Copied apk into directory. Modified permissions on APK file
rebooted.
Apps not installed
Trying installing from File Expert and get the parsing error.
Am I doing something wrong?

ICS keyboard installation...
- download this file
- put on sdcard
- use root explorer to move .apk to /system/app, dont forget to click the "Mount -
R/W" button at the top right corner while in /system/app folder
- long press on apk once moved, select set permissions check the top box under
"read" and the top box under "write" leave the others how they were.
- reboot and tada!
Didn't work Mr. Bean.

u probably didnt set the permissions correctly, all of the boxes should be checked BESIDES the last box under the "WRITE" colum. None of the special permission boxes should be checked.
I'm assuming you have to at least rename the apk file, before moving it to system app... correct me if i'm wrong
no you dont have to rename anything.
Didn't work

[App] ICS like MMS.apk

Like to share this one with you. Because i did not like the LG mms.apk because of the ugly balloons i replaced it with this one.
Just push it tot system/app and restart your phone. Do'nt forget to backup your default apk before (in case it does not work or you want to revert back).
It does contain a white theme

Well, now you just need to add an arrow instead of the "Send" button, and to mod the interface so it looks like real ICS...

You have to push it into "system/app/" using adb.
Look for "QtAdb" , gl.
The app looks great ! Maybe we should merge your mod and mine (here) and it would be perfect . You could use it if you want to.
if you're on zeus,how did you get the ics theme?
It will work on cm7? or just 2.3.4?
Don't know. Nandroid backup, try and report here
Thank you! This was exactly what I wanted for my Zeus 7 OB! :highfive:
