SMS unicode special characters remover

Hi all,
I want to ask if it is possible to "cook" some special feature to ROM with following functionallity:
I am typing my SMS with XT9 Czech, of course with unicode special characters. I need a fix, which will send the text without these special unicode signs to send it like a normal 160 characters instead of 70 characters SMS.
a) There are some utilities like SMSunaccent but it is a stand alone software which doesnt fit so well with all ROMs (problems with keyboard, etc.)
b) Also dont tell me to switch off the UNICODE selection in the message´s option, because the result is the sms with "?" instead of the special characters.
c) possible solution is to have the XT9 Czech without special characters, but I havent founf any editor of it.
Thank you very much and I will wait for your answer PDA Gurus ...

Russian (cyrillic) Keyboard?

Hello!
I need russian Keyboard very much for my HTC TD2 (german, WM 6.1). I can recieve SMS in cyrillic letters.
I downloaded FingerKeyboard 2.1 but the reciever just gets ?-signs instead of cyrillic letters.
So how can I send SMS in cyrillic letters?
Need it really very much and it would be great if somebody could help me!
Thank you!
Greetings!
Edit: and with PCM Keyboard it was the same problem..

I think your font does not support Cyrillic. Because for me FingerKeyboard 2.1 works fine
Your can also try another keyboard. For example VGAkey (with Russian langpack) or Resco Keyboard

I can read cyrillic letters when I send message, but the RECIEVER just jets ?-signs. And if russian people are sending me message with cyrillic letters, I also can read them.
But I will try VGAKey. Resco Keyboard is not Freeware. But I will try Trial Version.
Thank you
Edit: I don't understand how to use cyrillic letters with VGAKey...
Greetings

Looks like your PDA sends SMS in ASCII, but must in Unicode for russian text. In SMS window go to Menu > Tools > Options. Than tap on "Text messages" or other named SMS account in the list. There you can find "Use Unicode when necessary", check this option.
P.S. Езжай в Россию, у нас с этим нет проблем

Ah. Finally it worked!
Thank you very much...

[Q] How to have multi-language dictionaries [WP7 autocorrects my English words]

Hello,
I own the French version of WP7.
Most of the time I'm typing my messages in French. Autocorrection works fine.
But for business purposes I also have to type my messages in English. Then WP7 will try to auto-correct my English words into French words, and messes everything.
That's crazy.
How can I have both French and English dictionaries ?

Select multiple keyboard languages in the settings. When done so, your virtual keyboard will show a regional button right of the spacebar. Changing keyboard layout will change the dictionary.

Thanks Tom for the tip.
That was quite easy. It didn't come to my mind to check in the general settings menu.

special characters in sms bug?

hi!
is there any fix or something to remove special characters from sms?
im from Portugal and for example the word "já" if i type it with the accent in the "a" it ocupies 90 charecters from the 160 sms limit.. but if i type the word "ja" without the accent in the "a" it only occupies 2 characters.. what a weird bug..
im using cm7 with go sms and swift kb..
is there any way to skip the accents special characters etc?
for example if i write the word "não" it automatically changes to "nao" to skip the chars..
thanks all

yes there is. you need to use htc_ime mod. it is an improved version of stock htc keyboard.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=663608
read this post, so u will know what to do
it installs as a regular apk.
other options are:
-3rd party SMS application with that option
or
-if you use swype then you would have to find a ASCII version

thanks.. isto use swift and i love it.. dont want to get back to htc ime mod :x
well i will search for more info.. in last option i have to go backup to htc ime. :x
thanks

galaxy s3 mms apk

can someone port it because it has so many design settings! it looks so nice
ps can someone upload the cm10 mms apk with notification popup?
thanks!

I second that request.
Samsung mms.apk is the only one I've used to correctly handle Greek characters in sms input.
(ie. when on sms mode, and keyboard set to Greek, automatically turn on uppercase, and interpret/input all identical to Latin letters as English. If set to lowercase, use Unicode with 60 characters).
Unfortunately, this odd method is the one used in Greece to send 160 character sms, and it's a pity the native android sms/mms app does not support it.
Unfortunately, as very few people face this problem, there is little interest in porting the Samsung mms app.,plus every request I've found about it ends in comments like "why do you want it? XXX is much better" etc
Bottom line, I'd be very grateful if someone could port it.
