Hello everyone.
I'm Ahsan and I'm from Pakistan.
I've been trying to find a solution to my problem but I simply cannot find it anywhere.
My father got a Samsung Galaxy Note as a gift from a friend and he was excited to get his first ever touch-screen phone.
It has the following specs:
Model number: GT-N7000
Android Version: 4.1.2
Baseband Version: N7000LXKJ8
The main problem with the device is that it does not have a Samsung Keyboard installed. There seems to be a random Chinese Keyboard installed in the phone. I tried to reset the phone to the factory installed settings but the Chinese keyboard stayed. I think it's a Sogou Pinyin app and it is, somehow, the only available keyboard input method in the phone. If I disable this Chinese software, I can no longer enter words or use the keyboard.
Some of the notifications I receive, too, are sometimes in Chinese. I begin to wonder if this phone is Chinese/Korean made but the cover at the back says its made by Samsung. :/
My question here now is: how do I disable this Chinese keyboard and install the Google keyboard or the default Samsung Keyboard? I believe the Samsung Keyboard should have been in the phone from the start, but it just isn't there. I need help. Thanks.
