[Q] change language of keyboard - Defy General

hey guys...
another question from a new motorola defy multi-touch-keyboard user :=P
is there anyway to switch the language quickly...?
currently i use more locale2, but it also at least takes sever clicks until the language is changed... and it has the side effect that the whole OS changes the language.. which brings some lags...^^
so any advices? did i miss something?
thanks a lot,
cV

Add dictionary language...

Hi,
I just bought a Desire abroad and I'm a little disapointed that it doesn't have the option to set portuguese input.
I have the phone UI in english (and I want to keep that way) but I would like the keyboard dictionary to be available in portuguese...
Is there any way to just add the option to select portguese keyboard? At the moment, the only options I have are english and french.
Thank you!
just install Jonasl HTC_IME mod, and that should end your troubles

Multiple language voice search issue

I've got probably a somewhat unique problem and I wondered if there was a setting or conf file somewhere I could tweak to fix it.
The problem is that I'm a native English speaker but I use my phone in Spanish. I wish to perform voice searches in English because there are some things for which I don't know the word in Spanish and because my accent means Spanish voice to speech is a little less accurate than it should be. my phone used to work perfectly in Spanish with English voice searching until Google added support for spanish. My current work around of changing the phone's language settings back to English then to Spanish again works but is less than ideal as it takes ages to do and you'd often be faster typing you're search in manually. is there another way round this? is there a setting I can tweak? my Desire is rooted if it helps!......Sent from my HTC Desire using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
Anyone any ideas?

guessing that's a don't know. I was thinking that voice search had to be instructed to send the audio to a specific server based on the language and that either the program might be patchable or some config file editable...maybe even a script to change the language then launch voice search then switch it off again? or some program that might catch dns requests for the Spanish server and re-route them to the English one? I am just theorising of course! perhaps there's even an option I simply don't know about? anyone got any ideas?

Language Issues

This is the first time I bumped into this issue, and I must admit it sucks
Here's the deal, in every single phone I had I've used the phone (UI) in english, and wrote text in spanish using Itap.
My last phone (nokia 5800) had no problems with that.
With this new one, Moto Defy, I see there's no way to change the UI language, and the auto-prediction separately.
I thought it had to do with the fact that Android by default doesn't have a T9 like keyboard for text input so I downloaded a couple of apps for that but all have the same issue, they work fine, but they keep using the language for auto-prediction set in Settings (which is English, for the UI)
Does anybody know how I could accomplish this?
Hope somebody can help =)
Regards!
I had your same issue and I solved it using "htc ime mod keyboard"; you can find it here on xda forum, not on the market (therefore you have to manually install it).
It's fully customizable, has T9 prediction, supports many languages.
Infact I configured the volume button to quickly switch between 2 languages that I use.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
thanks, i've tested it and tried but it feels somewhat slow to me :S
I'm really picky when it comes to typing speed so maybe it's just me. I'll see what I can do but thanks =)

Add dicionaries to the android keyboard?

So am testing a gingerbread rom, and am wondering if its possible to add dictionaries to the android keyboard? My rom is missing the Norwegian dictionary, and am hoping there is a way of maybe manually adding it?
Thanks in advance.
I have the same problem with insert coin Rom v.1.9.1 d2ext, I have Italian language but not Italian keyboard, how can I set it?

Is there anyone that got any tips on how to do this please?
I had the same problem... after days of googling didn't come up with anything Now I just use smart keyboard pro with the appropriate dictionary - you can get it from the market. It's $2,73... but it was worth it for me.

Keyboard bug

Got my Nexus today (Vodafone Portugal) and there's a bug with the keyboard, i choose Portuguese language and auto correct doesn't work, at all. Completly empty diccionare ... it works fine with english. Any hint on this?
Thks.
Probably a stupid answer but try adding each word into the dictionary lol. Or might be fixed in an update

Geeeez ... i'm just using swiftkey x. Thks for the answer anyway. Maybe it doesn't include Portuguese corrections, only the keyboard itself?
I've had a problem where some forms on websites (like this one) just inexplicably turn auto correct off. Haven't found any rhyme or reason to this yet.
