How to Install LG G3 Keyboard on Any Rooted Android!

LG G3’s keyboard is touted in Android world as one of the better keyboards you can use as it comes with ability to resize your keyboard (which can be good for making the keyboard size exactly the you want it, works great for larger-screen phones) and support for Swipe out of the box.

If you have LG G3, you know how good the G3 keyboard is and believe me, I think that’s actually one of the best features on the LG G3 as I use my G3 as daily driver and LOVE the keyboard.

But what about if you have another Android smartphone like OnePlus One or maybe Note 3?

Thanks to XDA user Hamidibahram, there’s an easy way to install LG G3 keyboard on any rooted Android smartphone or tablet.

First, you will need to root your Android device, see How to Root Android first.
