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.

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?

Ok I've been uber patient and waited ages....but it's time to bump again and see if anyone has any ideas
Hi there,
I'm wondering if there's a way to change the prediction language for the hardware keyboard? I have my phone configured with English and French as the 2nd language, and it works great when using the touch keyboard since I can change language at the touch of a button.
But when I use the hardware keyboard, prediction is always in English. Is there a way to switch dictionary language for the hardware keyboard?
Thanks!
I have the same problem. Wonder if this is a bug...
Check out the fix by REDGLASSES in the DEVELOPMENT forum titled [FIX] STOCK KEYPAD UPDATE FOR CYANOGEN, or something like that. I'm sure French is in there,... give it a try.

Mine it's not a keyboard mapping problem but rather a problem with the prediction language.
I have the same problem :
I wanna have a French prediction, but I have just the English one...Unfortunately, my phone is in English/Italian...
Is there any solution now ?
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.

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 =)
How do I change this from English? It's the default language and there are no other options to choose. I want to use Simplified Chinese with Pinyin input on the keyboard. The soft keyboard works fine, only the hardware keyboard has this problem.
I'd like to know it too. I'm using a DZ with stock rom and spanish hw keyboard, but I have only bthe english layout...

Well, this worked fine in my Windows Mobile phone. I could switch back and forth from English to Chinese on both soft or hard keyboards. But from reading around, I seem to find that the keyboard is locked to one language. What a dumb idea. Yet another stupid problem with my phone that shouldn't be a problem.
I'm using GO keyboard from the android market. You're able to download multiple language packs as well and Pinyin is working fine for me even on the physical keyboard.
Thanks for the advice, it works great. A bit of trouble to get Chinese working correctly, but it's fine now.
Glad to help. =D
Other keyboards that support language change via hardware keyboard are Smart Keyboard Pro and AnySoftKeyboard.
I just upgraded my Nexus 7 2013 to Marshmallow and it seems faster and better than Lollipop, but!
I noticed that Google Keyboard word's suggestion is not working in any other languages but English. I use Russian as second keyboard and word's suggestion field just above keyboard is always empty in all the apps! It was definitely working before upgrade and I didnt change any settings after upgrade. I checked Spanish and French and result is the same - no word's suggestion at all!!!
It only works in English for me now.
Auto-correction is not working too!
Could anyone check if his/her tablet is acting same way?
I've spent few hours so far for Language&Input menu with no success at all!
PS Its related to original Google keyboard not third party.
Either no one cared or I was alone with this issue, anyway I want to update on this. It was magically resolved on its own, no changes no reboots were made and auto-correction and word's suggestion just started to work!
