I have tried EVERY keyboard for android i can find.
I like Touchpal 4.7.5 the best.
Is it possible to remap the swype keys?
In other words, is there a hack where i can change for example the euro sign under the "N" key on the qwerty keyboard to the # sign?
Being able to change down swype function would be fantastic, don't know if it's possible though.
Thanks!

I have a P3300 with a Norwegian rom (WM5).
I use the software keyboard a lot, but I would like to use the one with the big keys.
When I have the keyboard with the big keys, I cannot find the following two signs: ! ?
Do any of you know where they are, or (if they are indeed missing) a way to customize the keyboard so that I can have access to those highly essential signs...?
I would hate to have to use the keyboard with small keys...
i wonder why froyo's stock android keyboard is missing Cyrillic letter yer (Ъ, ъ) AKA the hard sign? it's present on all avail layouts of Eclair including HTC's one or smartkeyboard pro for example.
it has to be on the primary layout or something like the long key press on the soft sign (Ь, ь), another letter of the Cyrillic alphabet, but it's not.
how i supposed to write text without it?!
Lucky you, on my Galaxy S froyo JPM I can't even found the cyrillic keyboard....
It also misses Croatian letter đ.
There are some good keyboard alternatives, so you should look up.
I am using Smart Keyboard.
For the software keyboard I have a wide selection of languages and I use Romanian. The layout is the standard QWERTY, but when I long-press some letters, I get access to a few special romanian characters (ă, â, ș, etc.).
The problem I have is with the hardware keyboard. I can only choose English and that's almost fine. I have all the special characters I need when I long-press the letters, but there is only one I miss ("ă" / "Ă"). This one I will get when long-pressing "a" on the software keyboard, but not on the hardware keyboard.
Is there any way to add more hadrware keyboard languages, or somehow edit/add characters to the English configuration? Or should I just send some "hate-mail" to HTC and wait a long time for a fix?
No ideas?
Do any of you have other language options for the hardware keyboard, while the actual keyboard is the standard qwerty?
There must be a way to "Add" more options for the languages of the hardware keyboard..
Anyone?

is it possible to remap physical keyboard ?
how to get chinese input in android? I am new to android.
I just downloaded google input IME from market place and installed, it is enabled in settings(languages), but keyboard did not change in messages and browser input. why?
any other apps will work?
The default way to change input method has been changed in ICS. Instead of long pressing at any text entry field, In ICS you will see a small keyboard icon in the left corner from the status bar when the keyboard shows up, then you can pull the status bar down and change the input method from there.
Google Pinyin IME is average. Some better options are sogou input and touchpal input. Sogou does not support ICS at this moment. But touchpal V5 works flawlessly.
I actually set default keybord to google pinyin, but then I cannot enable default english keyboard. what if I want to try other chinese keyboard? is there a way to enable multiple keyboard?
What if I want stock ICS keyboard to have Chinese? Any way I can do that?
I really like the stock keyboard and I don't want to use third party keyboard if at all possible
Also looking for this option....Surely there must be a way to switch to hand written chinese input via the stock ICS keyboard right ??? I realise that 3rd party apps are available but they are all terrible IMHO. Looking for something similar to how iPhone handles Chinese input....any ideas / suggestions ?
i'm using penpower, it not made for ics, as the writing pad does not fit the whole bottom half of the screen, but it works.
updated, just installed the ics version.
google voice input is the best. i use HK traditional.

touchpal is good too. they got chinese pack and handwriting pack.
go to System Setting > Language & keyboard > System Language. Then, scroll down and check PinYin option. You can choose handwriting too.
Later, when you're at a text box you will can toggle between English and Chinese using a "EN" key at left side of your spacebar.

Chinese Input on Kindle Fire
Anybody know which Chinese IME works for Kindle Fire. I root it successfully. Try to install Google PinYin, but it say not compatible with your device. The download button even not available.
Thanks
do anybody knows what keys to press on the physical keyboard to be able to change the input language?
i have Hebrew keyboard as well and i couldn't find any way to change the the language input on physical keyboard.
This is a limitation of the Android OS - you cannot change the language of the physical keyboard that easily - I never found a way to do it, but theoretically it would involve access to the software or a configfile for the text prediction so that it suypplies cues from the physical keyboard to another predictor for another language
Long-press individual keys for alternate letters, and there may be an app for converting the physical keyboard, but it will almost invariably require root. I would also try finding other nationalities who accomplished this and learn from them. -Ara
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
as the mapping using the virtual keyboard of AnySoftKeyboard supports physical keyboard mapping i mange to make it work only when i change the virtual keyboard to Hebrew first and then slide the keyboard out.
this is very inconvenience cos every time i want to change the language i need to close the keyboard and switch to virtual one, change the language and star over.
maybe there is a way to add input option via the power button? like using jkay deluxe or something?
I can tell, how this problem is solved in case of russian layout, but not sure, if it works for hebrew.
Root, then use an app, called Keyboard swither from market.
After that, I installed the special verison of Russian keyboard, that had a layout, compatible with glide.
This version can be downloaded from here
the problem with keyboard switcher is that he just put an icon on desktop.
if i'm using sms app i need to close it to use the switcher, so its not the solution i need.
thanks for the help tough, we need to find a way to make a shortcut via combination of keys
to achieve this, maybe a script for int.d that can apply shortcut function on physical keyboard.

Oops, sorry, i've named the wrong app, its called Keyboard manager (com.ne0fhykLabs.android.utility.kmLauncher).
How it works: it sets 3 types of keyboard for every device status - landscape, portrait, and the slide out one.
So, if you set the apropriate keyboard with a right layout and ability to swith languages via alt+space (like russian keyboard), you can use your HW keyboard with right char set (the software keyboard itself is hidden in this state).

anysoftkeyboard doesnt work for arabic
Thank you for sharing this, this method is great! it works for me with bulgarian keyboard but it doesn't with arabic.
Is there anyway I can use the physical keyboard to type in arabic?
are you on ICS or JB? cos if you are with stcok GB you wont have the arabic fonts.

I'm on ICS, I tried go keyboard with the same method it worked but its showing lots of non Arabic letters, probably Farsi or Urdu I guess, I'm still looking for another keyboard with physical support, I just looked at the language packs of AnySoftKeyboard, they say that they support physical keyboard mapping for Hebrew and Russian and probably other languages but not Arabic
If you know any other keyboards with multi-language physical support please share.
you should try it with anysoftkeyboard anyhow maybe it will work.
unfourtantly i don't know about other keybaord that support mapping of physical keybaord escpasly our right to left languages.
