"5 Row Customizable Keyboard" by Ganbold
I want to clarify this for anyone interested as I have seen there is a lot of confusion surrounding this tweak.
It was very poorly named as there are several others with similar names and the instructions for it are incomplete at best.
Pros:
Possible issues
Installing
Initially in the tweaks settings pane you see this(not exactly but close):
Row 1 (11 Chars)
Row 2 (11 Chars)
Row 3 (11 Chars)
Row 4 (11 Chars)
Shift-Row 1 (11 Chars)
Shift-Row 2 (11 Chars)
Shift-Row 3 (11 Chars)
Shift-Row 4 (11 Chars)
Now those are "blank" and appear just like above. You have to manually type in the list of keys for each row. Here is what it may look like after you fill it out(the example below is just a rough idea)
Row 1 (11 Chars) qwertyuiop
Row 2 (11 Chars) asdfghjkl
Row 3 (11 Chars) zxcvbnm
Row 4 (11 Chars) 1234567890
Shift-Row 1 (11 Chars) -/:;()$&@"'
Shift-Row 2 (11 Chars) []{}#%^*+=
Shift-Row 3 (11 Chars) ¥£€><|\__
Shift-Row 4 (11 Chars) 1208472939
Important: Now each row must have the EXACT number of chars it says otherwise it will not render.

Pros:
- Works on 5.1.1 and the new iPad
- It is compatible with color keyboard,
- It supports the split keyboard (unlike iKeyWi)
Possible issues
- There might be some spell check issues with it being created from the Russian keyboard but I haven't confirmed this.
- You cant add emoji characters as keys
- The raised lines on the Home buttons are shifted over by one key to the left.
- You can't reassign backspace and other keys like it or add arrows from what I can tell.
Installing
- After you install this from Cydia, follow the instructions from the description in Cydia then go to the next paragraph.
- What the instructions leave out, is that you have to then go to the 5 row Customizable settings pane and then type the keys out.
