Dvorak and Colemak keyboard layouts - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I've added the Dvorak and Colemak layouts to this modified LatinIME.apk.
You have to have root access to use this; once you have that, you can push it to /system/app. BACK UP /system/app/LatinIME.apk FIRST PLEASE.
I've only tested it on my own Galaxy Nexus (CDMA, running a daily build of CM9); if it doesn't work for you let me know what's up and I'll try to help.
If you have any comments or suggestions to improve the layouts, let 'er rip down below.

For what reason do we need old ugly keyboard with small keypads when we got this ?

I'm sorry I can't help you get your original keyboards back. But I can recommend FingerKeyboard2, it's better than all stock keyboards. At least you can use it during the time you are working on solving the problem

HTC_IME High/Low Res online kitchen

For those who are interested in modding the standard samsung keyboard, try the mod of gIMpSTa in the nexus one forum, with the online generator, works great also for our SGS.
Generate the keyboard with the online kitchen, dowload the zip file in sd card, then apply the .apk file inside the .zip with astro.
I can't post the link 'cause I'm a new user, anyway it's in nexus one forum, theme and apps, the thread is: "[Skins] HTC_IME High/Low Res v27 custom skin generator online! Updated July 27th!"
Take a look, it's very customizable.
don't work on my sgs with this kitchen, someone have chelsea style htc keyboard for galaxy s?
Thanks, it works on JM5!
Not fully functioning at fast typing. I think it's not multitouch or something.
Just to make it easier for the rest:

Man I tried with the Original, without your folder.. But, It didn't work then also..
What could be the Problem.? Is it because I'm using Cookies home tab.?

No, but is recommended disable el Sense (with cookie o without it) when use throttlelauncher because both use much ram memory. Throttle less than sense.
If you have problem with the original, may be is better that´s you ask in this forum. Good Luck.
Thanks garmin2!

The throttlelauncher until you found the correct combination of widget is so unstable, but after a few days with the widget, begin to be stable like sense.
For example, I don´t use the people hub, only use some contact like hub, because like the people hub use too many resource, for me was unstable.
The % is a problem of resize (i only have the problem with 100% but no less), there are not enough space, but I will try to look it´s better. In a few days I will posted a new folder with some improvements, like in the weather page background skin, and see the map. Actually the mapspage appear blank, but I find a solutions, and other minor bugs.
The calendar and the music hub are the original I don´t do any modifications about this, so the problem is the unstable of throttle. May be you must insist until be stable. Believe me, is posible begin with less hub and add to one for time.
Uninstall and install until you get it. Good lucks
ok thank you. i am looking forward for your updated files
thanks...
Thanks for the port...
but I have problems with the font. although, I did copy the segoe.ttf to the windows > fonts folder...

When i copy your folders over the original, throttlelauncher is started but nothing appears !! Only agrey screen and two buttons at the bottom.

Is strange, I don´t know why this happens, but sometime the throttlelauncher is so unstable. I would try with the original, and then copy the hubs on at a time, and test, if work fine backup folder: program files/throttlelauncher, and after add a new hub and so until install all.
In really the problem are not my folders, is the throttle (I only resize to HVGA and minor tricks. I would leave by the end the weather hub, because this need update until run and sometimes have problems.
Good Luck.

[Q] COLEMAK Layout for the Gingerbread Keyboard

Hi Folks,
Does this exist, or is it possible for a non-programmer to mod an existing APK to provide a Gingerbread Keyboard with the COLEMAK layout? If it can be done, does anyone have any links to any keyboard modding guides?
As I said, I am a non-programmer, but would be willing to have a stab if it is more of a case of modifying/substituting code rather than coding from scratch.

[Q] Samsung keyboard missing Japanese IME on N7100?

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:.

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~~

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 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.
