Dear Everybody,
At last week I made some research for make Central Europen keyboard available for everybody especially that every people who read XDA usually use tha latest UK ROM as the most fresh, always brand new system software. The UK ROM usually contain everything as the Android system in it is multilingual and has all features for almost everybody, but Samsung Keyboard (and sometimes Swype) is different a little bit from this aspect as these 1-2 softwares depend an your CSC settings. If you use UK ROM you will lose real multilingual keyboards, as for UK these are not really needed.
I'm in Hungary so I need real T9 with the latest ROM so... I made them
Based on Sztupy hints on deodexing the keyboards (lot of thanks for it!) and some research between the system files I got some practice so could make my original requests.
The solution:
On 2.1 (example in Galaxy S) the T9 was integrated the keyboard software itself, so when you deodexed the keyboard from one multilingual 2.1, after you deleted your current Sam's keyboard you could drop the deodexed one made a restart and everything was OK.
On 2.2 the T9 database is totally discrete in T9DB folder but need to use the correct deodexed keyboard software of course.
(You not realy need to backup your original or any ROM, etc, because you can rip all needed files in all situations from the corresponding .RFS files (factoryfs.rfs as that base system and cache.rfs as the CSC thingies))
As I have Galaxy S and Galaxy Tab also, after my research I made all available solution for myself and of course for you (on both device), if anybody wouldn't like to make it again.
This/my current keyboard files made from XWJM8 ROM (2.1) and XWJPI ROM (2.2) as the two latest Central European version, and safely usable with any JP* ROM.
Usage:
0, to safe use you need to swith onto any other keyboard and kill the Sam's one or make a restart. (This is not a real needed step, but for smooth switch this will help you to save yourself from some scary FC when you overwrite your system files...)
1, delete all your current keyboard files with adb or root explorer. The files:
/system/app/AxT9IME.apk
/system/app/AxT9IME.odex
/system/lib/libDHWR.so - lower or uppercase!
/system/lib/libXt9core.so
/system/T9DB - if available - just on 2.2 keyboard!
2, copy all my files into the system folders with the same logic.
/system/app/AxT9IME.apk
/system/lib/libDHWR.so
/system/lib/libXt9core.so
/system/T9DB - just on 2.2 keyboard!
3, for smooth and safe method set the permissions to 777 (rwrwrw)
4, restart your device just for safe.
5, try to set up your Sam's keyboard if there is no input language choices then just enable T9 and select UK as input langiugage, and restart again!
Wow, now you have almost all available T9 with latest Sam's keyboard in any ROM what you currently using.
Languages: (in 2.2, sorry but did not remeber about the 2.1 if anybody would like it...)
Bulgarian, Cestina, Dansk, Deutsch, Greek, English (UK), English (US), Espanol, Suomi, Francais, Hrvatski, Hungarian, Italiano, Nederlands, Norks, Polski, Portugues, Romana, Russia, Svenska, Turkice, ***, Slovenscina, Ukrainian, Estonian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Serbian
Happy new year!
(See my attachment as the keyboard itself!
XWJM8 - the almost latest 2.1
XWJPI - the latest 2.2)

Good work!
I've really missed proper characters in the ROMs I've tried..
I am also looking for a missing language in Samsung keyboard.
I followed your steps and it looks like all went correctly, but as a result I have the option to change the languages, but my Bulgarian keyboard do not appear.
I am not sure if those files contain all internationalization data, as I installed the Gingerbread keyboard as well and got the same problem with it - there is Bulgarian to select, but does not appear once chosen.
I am recently trying Doc's ROMS with JPY base. Any idea?
Hi boyanovv!
I also tried this simple mod in order to get my native input language on SGS.
Had also the same problem, but after all it worked
Here is how I did (some parts may be useless, but maybe not):
Switched to Swype. Using Root Explorer moved .apk and 2 .so files, didn't had T9DB and .odex file. Uploaded modified files. Rebooted (didn't do 777). Went to settings, set input method to Samsung Keyboard. Disabled XT9, added my language to keyboard, didn't add English. Checked if it works, but didn't. Rebooted. Didn't work. Uploaded T9DB folder to /system/. Rebooted. Enabled XT9, set locale to English UK, removed all input languages. Rebooted. Added my needed languages and changed locale to US, disabled XT9. Rebooted. Worked, even russian
I used 2.2 files and I have DebusROM XXJPY.
regdude - thanx, gonna test your version.. atm I'm using the 2.1 keyboard, only I could get to work, but really preferred the 2.2.
Hi All,
Sorry for delay but I hadn't got free minutes in last days for gadgets, but refreshed the SGT pack with the latest and check this topic also. Without T9DB you will never get predictive dictionary of course but and as I tried to told you don't need .odex file as for usable for everybody I needed to deodex the keyboard software also. You just need that 4 things... The main .apk, the 2 .so and the needed dictionary files in /system/T9DB folder... with selected English and restarted device you need simply get those languages. I tried with not all but lot of them and the keys were correct and got dictionary also. Of course if you don't need you can use just those languages what you need not all but my pack contain lot of...
Hope everybody could use as I tested on 4 devices without problems. ( On Galaxy Tab I got some NEE files what missed from that ROM what I used for the multi pack, but over on it was everything OK. )
Bye...
thank you!
I can't get the one for 2.2 to work. I have follow all the steps in first post.
The keyboard pops up but I can't chose languages.
anyone has got it to work?

Same problem here.. I can set languages in settings.. but I can't slide the _ to change between the languages.. only a few are there. Another time I got it to work, my SMS got quite strange.. half my msgs got changed to Chinese, after I sent them, they were in Swedish on my phone, my girlfriend sent me some msgs back asking if I was joking with her.. lol
2.1 works, though I preferred the 2.2 T9 Keypad.
cant seem to get the 2.2 to work... or the keyboard works... but not the languages...

Same problem as me then. With the 2.1, I get at least Swedish, English and Croatian. However.. when I send SMS, sometimes half gets changed to Chinese(I don't see it, but my girlfriend was wondering what I was on when sending her texts in Chinese), I got no idea if it's the ROM or the keyboard that does it. Quite odd though.
After that I found the HTC_IME, it works quite well for me(girl don't get messages in Chinese anymore), but I still prefer the Samsung 2.2, if I could get it to work.
is this working on Darkys rom 9.2 ?

This did not work om my sgs i9000 with darkys 9.2. i did get to sealect the norwegian langue, but it did not work in 3x4 mode.
Thanks for this hint.

Hi! Can you enable all languages for Samsung Keyboard on Gingerbread 2.3.3???
I've installed this. Does T9 work. I enable it all everywhere and then try typing 843 on the t9 keypad and it doesn't change it to "the"
or any other word combo i try. Does it work for others. Maybe i'm missing something
you sure you enabled the correct keyboard?
English definitely should work, some of us that use other languages got problems, but English works for.
Also, another proper working T9 is the HTC_IME, you may wanna test it.

yea, I accidentally found it when I was trying to find a T9 keyboard for my HTC Tattoo, since it seems all devs like the gingerbread qwerty keyboard even on the low res 2.8", I tried on the Galaxy S and it worked perfect

hi - is there a way to put additional language into Froyo roms? I am not talking about morelocale but to make that langaue will be visible and usable under all system menus
Cheers
Same here. I'm looking for this too. Can someone, anyone answer this?
I'm also looking for this, Took a look in titanium backup. The stored files in Country, Language, Time zone are
/data/property/persist.sys.country
/data/property/persist.sys.language
/data/property/persist.sys.localevar
/data/property/persist.sys.timezone
might work to push these files to a rom. or to make a update.zip. Not sure if this is all the needed files
If you can live with the WWE rom, but only want another language, because of the xt9 dictionary in messaging. Then some of the languages can be downloaded from the market. I have downloaded scandinavian keyboard and dictionary to it.
I know it works with swedish too.
Download Morelocal 2 I have Danish UI atm.
Which rom are you danish guys using by the way ?
I have internet connction problems with most of the froyo roms. Do ya have the same problems ?

I was wondering the sme thing as they mentioned not MoreLocale but MoreLocale 2 does work
MoreLocale 2 does not work well for the Froyo.
More locale2 works perfect for me. I am currently running English UI with danish keyboard. And I have been doing so on all the different roms I have tried. Luckily Pauls MCR r5 has danish by default so I don't have to use morelocale here
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
At the moment im running LeeDroid 1.3a
Danish UI is included. Inclusive keyboard + dictionary.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
MoreLocal 2 works FINE with Froyo, with or without Sense.
There isn't suitable information in this thread. Because as said before, morelocale is not a solution everytime. Even if you select a locale form morelocale, the keyboard language isn't changed. So, as far as I learn that HTC_IME.apk must support your locale. For instance HTC_IME.apk that is in 2.04 based roms doesn't support Turkish keyboard, however HTC_IME in 2.06 supports Turkish keyboard.

Good question.

I did fint this here: http://www.madhacker.org/HTCTouchPro2.htm
Hello.
I have a Norwegian TP2 with the Norwegian hardware keyboard and Rom ...
I want to upgrade my TP2 with English Rom, which was made of you friends ...
But only one thing that prevents me and that is that I want to use the Norwegian keyboard with letters "Æ Ø Å". By installing the English Rom I can not use them...
Can someone plz make a cab file that I can install and use the Norwegian keyboard complete with English Rom...

Is there a cab or program that I can use to change the keyboard installation?
Similar to the PC, we can go into Control Panel, Region and Language, Keyboards and Languages, Change keyboard... And from there we can install or change the keyboard language ...
I need a solution or help in using the keyboard Norwegian with English custom Rom...
I'm tired of using the Orignal and slow Rom's from HTC ...
I want to install wm6.5.3 or slightly better version of any custom Rom on my TP2...

You might PM the original poster of this discontinued ROM, he stated there was a cab for the keyboard, there was not a link in the forum.

Thanks
From English back to Norwegian
I gave my TP2 to a friend of mine. originally a Norwegian TP2, which I tweaked into Deep Shining ROM some time ago.
Now; How can I make the device become the most updated Norwegian/ original?

Correct me if I'm wrong , but since Cyanogenmod is based on the stock android os, shouldn't it have the normal ,fully functioning , keyboard of gingerbread on this version? It seems to me that although you can choose any input language , there is no auto correct at all or prediction for any foreign language. I need prediction and auto correct for greek because it's really hard to type fast without it.
Is there any way to fix this (maybe dictionaries where kept out because of space and can be found somewhere?)
Edit: Suuure , 2 days and noone has any idea about it ... I worked out that I need a main.dict file to place in the proper folder , but can't find that file anywhere ...
If anyone has a greek gingerbread(AOSP) rom with a working keyboard or even only the dictionary file for 2.3's keyboard Pleeease post a link ?
It doesn't matter that it's build on a stock rom... they might have modified the keyboard to look better and also removed other languages dictionaries to save space and reduce the size of their rom...
you can use better soft keyboards or either download the appropriate dictionary for your phone and inject it into your phone!!!

Gladly mate... But I didn't find any decent dictionaries (or even half-decent)...
I am looking for a source but to no avail.. The keyboard is so annoying to use without any prediction at all , and I've found other problems with it lately... It was the thing that made me just go back to my own 2.29 and just keep the upgraded radio which actually did wonders for both battery and signal...
Hello all,
I recently became a ZTE Blade owner and I decided to flash it with the latest CM 7.1.0 RC1 ROM, only to find out that the stock Android keyboard does not yet support text prediction in Greek. Since I didn't want to install a third-party Greek IME from the market, I decided to inject a Greek dictionary found in a previous CM release (6.1.2) inside the already existing LatinIME.apk.
Other than the addition of the Greek dictionary, this LatinIME.apk is just like the stock one found in CM 7.1.0 RC1. It was decompiled/recompiled/signed with APK Manager. I don't know if it's going to work on other devices/ROMs, but you can try and share your results.
UPDATE: Apparently there was a minor problem with the keyboard, causing the "&" symbol to display as "&". I corrected it a couple of days after posting the APK here, but I forgot to update this post. I have now uploaded the correct APK and updated the link below, let me know if it works.
How to install:
1. Navigate to /system/app using Root Explorer and copy your existing LatinIME.apk to a backup folder in your SD card (just to be sure, should things go wrong).
2. Use Root Explorer to mount /system/app as R/W and then paste the new LatinIME.apk inside this folder. Change the file's permissions to rw-r--r-- after pasting.
3. Reboot your device and go to Settings > Language & Keyboard > Android Keyboard > Input Languages. Under Greek, it should now say "Dictionary available".
Download Link:

Works perfectly with Cyanogen 7.03 and wildfire.
Thanks!
Works Great on HTC Hero running Elelinux-7.1-Hero-Custom-v2 (Cyanogenmod 7.1 based)
A.I.type Keyboard will support Greek text prediction soon
We are releasing Spanish and Hebrew today. German and French next week. Then Arabic, Italian, Portuguese and Greek (in no particular order). So we hope to support Greek within a month and a half.
They keyboard itself already supports Greek, but doesn't provide text prediction, corrections and completions in this language.
FYI.

first things first: always do a backup before, this files are for testing / development only!
you should install the bootmenu dettofatto posted in order to do a restore
if your phone doesn't boot anymore.
Bootmenu thread
atm i am trying to build a fully translated rom with the stock blur apps
from 2.3.4. on top of dettofatto's rom but after testing a little bit i've
found some issues and i want to fix them first before i release the rom.
the issues are:
-after updating the google search you'll get a force close when pressing
search button in the app launcher, this problem is also with the original
files, so if anyone knows where to find the eventhandling let me know
-after wiping the phone with cwm almost all social networks disappeared in
the account settings and the social network setup doesn't work anymore,
at least in the german translation ... so it only works if i give you my /data backup
which isn't a good solution ;o)
files that haven't translated yet:
BlurUpdater_VZW.apk
BuaContactAdapter.apk
Cmas.apk
ConnMO.apk
EncryptionSettings.apk
GlobalNwSwitch.apk
LAWMO.apk
LocationConsent.apk
MotoAtCmdQcPlugin.apk
MotoVzwAtCmdPlugin.apk
PhoneConfig.apk
PNI-Moto-2010-09-17.apk
PNI-Moto.apk
ProgramMenu.apk
ProgramMenuSystem.apk
QuickTutorial.apk
Vvm.apk
VZWInstaller.apk
but i think all the verizon stuff doesn't need to be translated...
i've also wrote a quick and dirty translatorscript, read the readme in it
first to find out how it works and what it does.
btw: the most files have the following languages: en, de, fr, it, pl, nl
translator script, translated framework and app files:
THE FILES
have fun with it
last but not least: thanks to dettofatto and to all the creators of the tools i've used
To translate dettofatto's rom in italian, i have token string*.xml of pro+ and copied all strings into string*.xml of gingerbread rom
Now italian is at 99,9
Tnx to dettofatto
Edit:
i don't understand how i can use your script.. in notranslated dir i put in original apk.. and in traslated dir what apk must i put in?
translator software is never as good as handmade translation,but nice try....

did you even know what the script does?
translatorscript sounds like a automatic,crappy translation. if it works well,iam your biggest fan
only want to say that i like your intension and i´m waiting for translated german language on 2.3.4 german pro!
maybe it´s very useful to take the translation from the pro+ like hnktc already said!
did i undestand you right..you wanna make a stock 2.3.4 rom for pro with german translation...
For putting home made translations..
Copy and past the same file (example: settings.apk) in nottranslated and in translated.
Copy your home made values-xx folder (not past, copy only for now...)
run "run.bat"
wait, see the script and wait some seconds
go into /translated/decoded/settings.apk/res
past your folder (values-xx) now (overwrite)...
wait...

i thought about making a rom for the middle european main languages ...
but to be honest ... i doesn't think its worth the afford, since there are
some things broken and i'm not in the mood to fix things that even
broken in the original 2.3.4 files from verizon ... but maybe the
translated files can be used by others to create a fully functional rom
