I know there is many threads about this, but I have never seen an answer to this question:
My device is jakjuxw because I'm from Norway. Is there any difference in keyboard languages and/or T9 between jakju and jakjuxw?
If I flash jakju will I get Norwegian keyboard and Norwegian T9 when its released?

That really doesn't answer any of my questions. I like the original keyboard, so i will stick to it.

I just flashed yakju yesterday (4.0.4) coming from a yakjuxw (4.0.2).
In the process I have lost the portuguese dictionary. If I scan for dictionary add-ons it's not there to be seen. Neither is danish or any other scandinavian language dictionaries for that matter so in short... if you want auto correct with the standard keyboard in danish at the moment then don't flash 4.0.4.
I have a NAND backup of my yakjuxw 4.0.2 so I will probably put it back today to confirm that I did have the portuguese auto correct dictionary and if so, somehow try to locate the file and maybe hack it into 4.0.4 yakju but I fear my android skills aren't enough for the task
It kinda sucks though that Google doesn't provide add-on text correction dictionaries for all languages.. why do you need a separate build for this..
Yeah its wiered that they cant just add it, since there is a menu where you can search for updates to dictionarys.
But as far as i know(wich isnt that far at all), its not possible to go back to yakjuxw. Only if you can get a nandroid backup from someone. And im not sure that will work, but its just a suggestion i saw somewhere here on xda.
I just gave the Swiftkey X a go on my Desire(GNex is in for repair), and so far it seems pretty nice. The dictionary is way better than the ICS keyboard on market.
Give it a go, and see how you like it. It could save you a lot of trouble.

Hmmm well I actually do have a NAND backup of my stock yakjuxw so it should work. First thing I did when I got the phone was to unlock it and do a NAND backup via clockwork recovery

yeah I know I actually have bought it back when Google was offering 99 cent apps. But I didn't quite get along with it.. always fell back to stock. The keyboard layout just feels better to me.. and if you use stock, you're going to get all the improvements they make to it down the road (which may be novel compared to Swiftkey X). It's a matter of preference really but yeah it is the simplest solution to get all dictionaries on your phone.
You can always just switch keyboards though... using stock for english and swiftkey for other languages.. just a few more clicks away

I believe the reason why you can't go back to yakjuxw without a NAND backup it's because the factory images aren't available for download at https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
If they'd have a yakjuxw factory image I don't see why you would not be able to flash it having yakju on your phone
Well actually forget all I said about my previous post. I mixed up having the keyboard with having the text-correct dictionary.
I restored my 4.0.2 stock yakjuxw NAND backup and it also doesn't have the text correct portuguese add-on dictionary, neither the scandinavian ones. However it does come already pre-installed with Italian, French and German which you can get as add-ons with yakju anyway. My phone was bought in the Netherlands
So I guess if you're on yakjuxw and want to move to yakju, you're not missing out on any languages because you never had extra ones to begin with..
Now this is really strange... the european version of the Galaxy Nexus doesn't come with Portuguese ? 6th most spoken language in the world ? Seriously ?
Shame on you Google..

Yeah thats what i meant But i cant really understand why they wouldnt make it public also. Cant be that many secrets inthere
About the keyboard, i love the stock one, but without a dictionary its useless for fast writing. I got used to the ICS keyboard from Market, but the danish dictionary is just crap. When i tried Swiftkey i could really feel how the speed and ease returned.

I think it's because it's managed by Samsung, so maybe they didn't make it public for some stupid reason.

Yeah without a dictionary it's quite difficult. But now I remember why I gave up on Swiftkey... most of the time when I have to write in my native language (portuguese) it's when I have to send an SMS. And the auto-correct of Swiftkey automatically puts the special accents such as á,ô,à and although these are supported in GSM ISO encoding (used by Nokia since the dawn of phones) Android insists on using 8 bit Unicode and suddenly your 160 char SMS is reduced to 70.. meaning you pay more per the same SMS cause it has to be broken down into 2.
Of course phone carries are happy about this so I guess they don't have a say about it
So for this reason, if sending an SMS via the stock Android browser it's actually better that the dictionary doesn't work lol
I think I read somewhere that Handcent SMS keeps the ISO encoding for the standard accents found in 7 bit ISO.. have to try that one
For reference here's the 7 bit ISO GSM alphabet http://www.dreamfabric.com/sms/default_alphabet.html
Little annoying bugs with Android you see....
And I thought I had a problem :-D
But do you really pay per SMS? Here in Denmark the free SMS and mms packages are so cheap that most people use them I think.
About the updates, it's not Samsung that manages them. Samsung i just doing some quality control but Google manages everything else. I got that from the Danish Samsung support after they checked with their developers.
But if it isn't stuff like dictionary, then what is it? I fear it could be something carrier related so a change to yakju might give me trouble. But if it's just apn I can live with entering it manually.
It's pretty annoying that we don't have a clear answer on the differences.

Well in Portugal you normally pay per SMS though there are some package deals I think. Here in the Netherlands it's also very common that you get SMS packages but still we're talking about 100-300 messages per month which if you lose them twice as fast by using non standard chars then it's a bad deal

Hello everyone!
I have the usual problem with the system limiting my SMSs to 70 characters when using the Greek alphabet.... Someone suggested on the Smart Keyboard forum (http://www.dexilog.com/smartkeyboard/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=970&p=4484#p4484) that HTC has solved this. But for me, the problem persists in a weird way:
-Of course I type in all caps
-If I use any letters that are specific to the Greek alphabet (Ψ,Ω,Δ,Λ,Σ etc) the limit stays at 160 characters
-If I type a letter that is common to the latin alphabet it drops to 70 characters!
It's strange, but I haven't seen much talk about this issue here, though it was a big topic in WinMo discussions (WM has the same problem).
So:
-Can someone verify whether or not HTC has fixed this?
-Does anyone have a suggestion?
Using RevolutionHD 2.09 with 1.72.405.3 .
Thanks!

Anyone?.... I also tried the IME mod v27 to no avail...
Goodmorning my friend,
Unfortunately my friend you have to use the ACE HELLAS solution for this, which is a "top secret" info, they will never help you out with this.
Had the same problem with my previous phone (HTC Legend), and ended up using SlideIT with Greek add-on, which I remember that worked for SMS (ofcourse always caps). Give it a try and let me know.
In case you really need Greek, and you are willing to come back to ACE HELLAS stock, I can Nandroid mine when it comes back from service and upload the ROM for you.

Good morning Kostantinos,
Thanks so much for taking the time to reply... I can't believe we're in the same s#!+ with Ace Hellas once more - it was the exact same situation some 4 years ago when I got my TytnII! Of course this is not the sign of a serious company (speaking both for HTC and ACE) since the fix should have found its way upwards and be included in the stock HTC ROMs.... but I digress.
I'm running a custom ROM, so I wouldn't want to go back to a stock one, but I guess that this could be rectified by just grabbing the relevant apk(s)?
Also,thanks for the SlideIt kb. I had tried it, but didn't remember it fixes the problem - will try again.
Thanks again, and have a great day,
Themis
I will let you know regarding APKs after I root my DHD, as soon as I receive it back from service (the blur picture left part camera issue).
Until then, you can also "dig" information and try the new Swype beta for DHD as well, but I dont think it supports Greek at the moment (not sure). If I find anything I will send you a link.
Yes, the problem is really frustrating, but at least the WM problem was a single HTC_ime.cab file, which worked in almost all devices. In Android it is a real pain in the arse!!! That is why I still stick with the stock ROM.
After 3 years of upgrading Android OSs, this problem should have been fixed generically, from the box.
OK, you can try here... NOT tested, but you have chances to work
Thanks - I'll take you up on your offer, so please do forgive me if I bother you with a PM in a few days
Swype doesn't have Greek - at least didn't have the last time I tried it, so it's a no-go, but SlideIt is good enough I think - it's just that it's totally different and i happen to like the HTC Kyboard
Was it an IME cab for WM? I seem to remember it was a keyboard cab. And it seems to be the same here - there are messaging apps (call me Handcent) that solve it with the stock keyboard, but there are also third-party kb's that solve it with the stok messaging app! So it seems it can be fixed two-ways... If I could help in any way with digging into the ROM please do let me know!
Oh, just got a notification about your second post in a row - wow, it includes Greek! Lemme grab it, quick
Thanks once more mate, it's strange how not more people discuss this issue (time to visit the ACE Hellas fora again after several years I think! ).
Cheers

Ahhh yes I remembered the problem with Swype: it FCs whenever you switch languages... so kinda useless
[edit] and, also, it doesn't solve the 70-char issue, it's exactly the same. Gonna try SLideIt.
[Edit2] ..aaand SlideIt does the same as well.

My dear friend can you send me the HTC_ime.cab file or tell me where can I find it? I have the exact same problem with my wm6.5 phone! I don't want to use the solution with the remapped keyboards!
Number of Characters has to do with Unicode or GSM Alphabet?
I've been hoping for something like Swype for a while, and now with the 3.25 beta it works on my A43. Now, if only it had a hexagonal ATOMIK layout instead of that silly QWERTY one! (But there are patent issues with the ATOMIK layout.)
Yeah, it also works on the 101 now.
Only problem:
The language settings don't show all languages that are listed as supported in the offical resoulution / language table.
As an example, German is missing. (Don't know about all others)

I have swype on my HTC Legend phone.
I think swype on a A101 is difficult.
I use the multiling-keyboard which has 'big' keys for easy touch.
hmmm
im not really a fan of swype
ive downloaded flex t9 and i use that on all my devices
it does have swype like abilities but i feel its better
just my opinion
I used swipe but found swiftkey better for me. Use on both SGS & 101
Just intalled it on my 101... REALLY liking this new version (wasn't a big fan of the older version).
Is it supposed to be centered like that and not taking up the whole screen, or is that just a problem on our devices?
Either way, seems to be working very welll!

I live in Japan and own a Samsung Galaxy Nexus. I'm running on the Docomo network.
I've rooted my phone. I have Android 4.0.4.
I started to check out the different ROMS and decided to use the Jelly Bean ROM I found on galaxynexusroot.com called:
aokp-jelly-bean-rom-build-1-for-galaxy-nexus-gsmverizonsprint
2 problems so far, the first and main problem for me is that there is no longer a choice to use the IME Japanese keyboard that came with my GNEx. I need this keyboard because I have email in Japanese. I've seen some apps, but the inability to change to kanji characters makes them useless for me.
The second problem, when I go into my contacts so that I can sync my gmail to it and get all my contacts back on, it won't. It will say that it can't make a secure connection and it will stop. I can run it fine when creating it in the settings area, but that won't allow me to import my contacts.
I am new, I have checked, but I have a feeling there aren't many Japanese users on here. Hopefully I'm wrong...
There are plenty of Japanese IMEs in the market I'm sure, I know Google has one of their own. What do you mean about the inability to change to kanji? That doesn't make sense, Japanese IME without kanji would be useless, the Google IME shows kanji being input in the screenshots.

I saw a few of the IME applications and the remarks made that it was useless for the users since there was an inability to change from hiragana to kanji. I just saw the Google version and I'll see how well that works on my stock ROM where I already have a Japanese IME that comes with the ROM (Does that make sense, I'm still getting use to this). Several languages were available in the Jelly Bean ROM but none were Japanese. I'd like it if it were available right there in the ROM. I guess I'm just not sure if this is something creators of new ROMS remove or if it's something that has to be placed in.
Yeah, the CJK IMEs are part of localized ROMs but they aren't in the ROMs that come with US phones so that's probably why they aren't in most custom ROMs. It makes sense too, the IMEs take up space. I use Google's Pinyin input for Chinese, but I wouldn't want the Japanese IME taking up space on my phone since I wouldn't have a use for it.
Using Google's one. I don't like the design but it works really well, especially with people and places' names.
BTW, Google translate supports hand writing for Japanese. Might come handy sometimes, but you need internet for that.

Hello everyone,
I'm using Rasbeanjelly, but the AOSP keyboard doesn't autocorrect Dutch at all. English works fine, but it just refuses to correct Dutch. I really don't want to use an third party app like Swiftkey. Anyone have a solution perhaps?

Hello,
Samsung keyboard default doesn't support Japanese IME on Galaxy Note 2 N7100 so I wonder if I can install addition pack or flash a cook ROM to make the Jap IME available ?
I know I can install another keyboard which supports Jap but I don't like it because it's inconvenient for switching keyboard every time.
Thank you.

Japanese has its own stock samsung keyboard separate from the Regular Stock keyboard. You'll need to get that apk and then get the necessary libs for it. Its annoying thats for sure.

If you haven't tried ATOK お試し版, it might be worth it even if you have to switch keyboard from time to time. You can take the trial for a spin.
There are a few other keyboards in my sig, to consider and play around with.

I'm not sure if all of them are actually necessary or not, but that's what got iWNN (called "Samsung Japanese Keypad" in the UI) and MazeC (for handwriting) working on my US (TMobile) Note2. The voice recognition will fail with a SIM card error unless you have a Docomo SIM (so go into the settings and change voice input to Google Voice - I'm not sure how well that works), and I don't think this gets emoji working (it probably wouldn't work anyway outside Japan).
The process to get them was a bit involved. I had to untar the tar file, then run sim2img on the system.img and cache.img... then after mounting both, in the cache partition, there is a file recovery/sec_csc.zip. Most of the files I listed above are in the system partition, but the rest need to be extracted from that zip file. Then you can put them in place with a root file manager or adb.... If that sounds like too much work, maybe I can zip the the files up (not a flashable zip) and post them here.
Besides that, I'm a bit surprised by the lack of integration compared to the built in keyboard, especially with the multiwindow (it doesn't detach like the builtin keyboard). Also, you'll have to switch back to the "Samsung Keyboard" to get the sliding input or decent English handwriting recognition. So, I'm not sure if I actually missed anything and it or maybe that's just how it works.
The theming/colors also won't match what you see in the videos - it's more gray like the default keyboard on US Note2, while it appears to be blue in the youtube videos I found.
Thank you for your hard work in testing and posting here but I am afraid that's not what I am looking for, I need the Japanese IME integrated right into Samsung Keyboard then I can just slide to change the IME right away without needing effort to switch keyboards. For that mazec Japanese handwriting we can just purchase from Google Play if needed, no need to flash the JAP ROM.
Moreover, I tested Mazec's trial version. Mazec handwriting is good, but IMO it's not as good as the handwriting of Samsung keyboard compared to what I've been using with English and Chinese handwriting.
But anyway, I really appreciate your kindness in testing and reporting :good:.

Thank you for your hard work in testing and posting here but I am afraid that's not what I am looking for, I need the Japanese IME integrated right into Samsung Keyboard then I can just slide to change the IME right away without needing effort to switch keyboards. For that mazec Japanese handwriting we can just purchase from Google Play if needed, no need to flash the JAP ROM.

Basically you can't integrate Japanese into the stock Samsung keyboard, at least not yet. It seems to have a different IME on all phones, at least in my experience.
If/when Swiftkey add Japanese to their language packs then it might get added to the Samsung Keyboard as well.
If you want all your languages in one keyboard you'll have to resort to using Swype or Smart Keyboard Pro.

Why does when Swiftkey add Japanese to their language packs then it might get added to the Samsung Keyboard as well ? These apps are made by the same developer ?
Yes, I am using Swype but the reason I love Samsung keyboard more because their handwriting is the best one IMO.
The current Samsung keyboard uses the swiftkey api/dictionaries/prediction engines whatever they call it I believe.
And swiftkey doesn't have a Japanese input method yet. So I guess I'm making the assumption that when that gets updated then you'll see Japanese added for the Samsung keyboard too.

Just notice that you're from Japan. So could you tell which keyboard app you're using to type and handwrite Japanese ?
Honestly I don't do much handwriting as my character drawing is terrible! As regards keyboards try what has been recommended. I use either the stock Samsung Japanese keyboard or swype for ease of switching when typing.

Add Japanese locale?
I too have a Galaxy Note 2 and I'm bemoaning the lack of Asian languages on it.
I'm not bothered by having to install a third party Japanese IME as I don't type in Japanese much. What I really want is to be able to switch the device language to Japanese (and/or Korean actually) just as I can switch it to French etc, for testing purposes. I'm not even that bothered about whether a few glitches and so on happen; I just want to be able to test application localization on one device!
Is there a way to make the 7100 act as if it's Japanese, such that apps use jp resources and so on?
For localization, I think you are looking for "Language Enabler" ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wanam ), which should work on any (rooted) Samsung device. Just open it up, select the languages you want, save and reboot.
Although Korean was in the default list on my phone.

It enables just those in system language but still doesn't have input method of languages.
Stock to AOSP
Has this been tried on a non-stock rom?
I assume you are working with a stock Samsung rom and taking the files from the Japanese rom into the english version, but I may be wrong.
I would like to explore the possibility of doing this from a stock-japanese to an AOSP or cyanogenmod.
What METHOD did you use to identify these files? It would be of great help. I seriously want to use the mazec that came with my original rom into this cyanogenmod that I am using.
Thanks~~

I'm not sure if all of them are actually necessary or not, but that's what got iWNN (called "Samsung Japanese Keypad" in the UI) and MazeC (for handwriting) working on my US (TMobile) Note2. The voice recognition will fail with a SIM card error unless you have a Docomo SIM (so go into the settings and change voice input to Google Voice - I'm not sure how well that works), and I don't think this gets emoji working (it probably wouldn't work anyway outside Japan).
The process to get them was a bit involved. I had to untar the tar file, then run sim2img on the system.img and cache.img... then after mounting both, in the cache partition, there is a file recovery/sec_csc.zip. Most of the files I listed above are in the system partition, but the rest need to be extracted from that zip file. Then you can put them in place with a root file manager or adb.... If that sounds like too much work, maybe I can zip the the files up (not a flashable zip) and post them here.
Besides that, I'm a bit surprised by the lack of integration compared to the built in keyboard, especially with the multiwindow (it doesn't detach like the builtin keyboard). Also, you'll have to switch back to the "Samsung Keyboard" to get the sliding input or decent English handwriting recognition. So, I'm not sure if I actually missed anything and it or maybe that's just how it works.
The theming/colors also won't match what you see in the videos - it's more gray like the default keyboard on US Note2, while it appears to be blue in the youtube videos I found.

I'm hoping for an answer to this too. I'm using Assassin ROM and would like to get the Stock Japanese Keyboard and Mazec Handwriting on my Note 2. I wasn't able to crack open the pure stock Docomo image I found online, but I was able to extract most of those files from a zip that Robobob1221 pointed me to. I can't find 3 of the apks in yubimusubi's list:
system/app/DcmVoiceSearch.apk
system/app/DcmVoiceEditor.apk
system/app/DcmVoiceRecognition.apk
I'll see for myself soon enough, but wondering if anyone knows up front whether those files are necessary.
Seems most of the files from yubimusubi's post may not be completely necessary, but that may still be a bit premature to say.
I've only copied the fonts, VODB folders, Maruberi, iWnnIME_T0, Mazec apks and the following lib files to my system directory:
system/lib/libiwnn.so
system/lib/libmazecdict.so
system/lib/libMazecJpnDic.so
system/lib/libMazecRecJpnDicA.so
system/lib/libMazecRecJpnDicB.so
system/lib/libMazecRecJpnDicC.so
system/lib/libMazecRecJpnDicD.so
system/lib/libMazecRecognizer.so
So far, Mazec handwriting works (!!), the English keyboard of the Samsung Japanese Keyboard works, numbers keyboard works, and symbols/emoticons work. The only problem I'm having now is getting the Japanese part of the keyboard to work. When I press a key, the keyboard freezes. Gonna try and figure out which of the other libs might help.
But so far it seems that the voiceeditor.so files aren't necessary. But then again, I don't use voice recognition or anything, so I'm not sure.
UPDATE: I didn't want to hijack the thread, so I started one here. I managed to get the hiragana and katakana input working, but I seem to have broken the ability to change kana to kanji and now the kanji. Everything seems to work fine! If you're interested in what files I used, please check the other thread.
