I think he already has tried that. He just needs a fresh copy of the keyboard apk and odex files, maybe he can ask on XDA. I deleted all the Note 2 ROMs from my PC last month :(

Finally able to install KitKat on my ageing Galaxy S, after numerous boot-loops and network connectivity issues.
Currently on CM11 M5 snapshot, so far so good. awaiting the stable build release.

I haven't found anything better than swype dragontail, not even SwiftKey. The prediction was flawless.
For swiping there is no better keyboard than Swype. People can argue about Flow vs Swype all day, but the fact is fact.
However, the previous versions of Swype were much much better than the new versions. They are trying hard to kill off a fantastic product. They have lost the Guinness record for being the world's fastest keyboard too, to Windows Phone's Word Flow keyboard.
The only keyboard which comes close to Swype and it's unrivalled engine is Samsung's T9-Trace or Continuous Input. The worst swipe engine is undoubtedly of Google's Keyboard and SwiftKey Flow. As a free keyboard TouchPal X is pretty darn nice.

Mobile browser (never) =/= Mobile browser but
I suggest 2 browsers
1. Google chrome
2. Dolphin Browser

Go to Amazon Appstore and download Tubemate
Not available in Play store

I use chrome on android, with its recent data compression technology it can now rival opera, it works good with almost all sites, except for the ones requiring flash(very very few these days), for that the stock browser does wonders. Chrome's tab management and the ability to sync with desktop without plugin is an added bonus, also its extremely stable, haven't had a crash in the last 6 months with over 20 tabs opened, dolphin on the other hand tends to crash at times with large number of tabs.

UC browser Mini is good, comes with incognito mode too :wink:
I hate that browser, I have at least a dozen websites trying to pull off a Drive by download of that cr@p browser on me, my downloads folder is filled with copies of that browser, its a damn spyware, just like all those pc cleanup utilities that you see in scam websites :evil:

I wanted to buy swype, but the cost simply keeps me away.
