[Q] BlackJelly help - T9 Language - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Hi
I would have put this under the BlackJelly thread in the dev forum, but it seems that I'm not yet allowed to post replied there. So, I'm posting here, in hopes for help.
I have a few issues, but I will open them up in seperate threads, as though they are all about basic issues w\ BlackJelly, they are still quite distinct.
I'll start off by saying that generally speaking, I LOVE this ROM. I do, however, have a few issues that I need to take care of.
One of those issues is the T9 dialer. I use it very often. My problem is that it is only in English and my contacts are stored mostly in Hebrew. Is there any way of adding this to the dialer? I prefer not to stay on the stock dialer and not use exdialer (or other third party dialers) for a few reasons: (1) If I theme the ROM, I'd want the dialer to also be themed, (2) I want the dialer to clear my missed call notifications. It doesn't quite do the trick with exdialer and (3) I'd generally prefer as little uncessary software installed, so two dialers is a bit excessive.
If there's no way to do it, I'd appreciate getting an answer as to how I can at least solve issue (2) (clearing notifications).
Thanks!

Wouldn't changing your device's language to hebrew fix your issue?

yes. But what if I simply dislike the Hebrew interface? I just need the Hebrew t9.

V2T - What's the verdict?

There is a lot of speculation and conflicting reports of how voice-to-text was implemented on the Desire. After reading every thread related to v2t, Im still totally confused
If you already have a handset, could you please tell us what the real story is with voice-to-text? No speculation, rumours etc please! If you are lucky enough to already have one, please help by answering these 2 questions?
1) Is voice-to-text available as a 'general' text input (in place of the on-screen keyboard)? I know there is a thread on how to enable it using an alternative keyboard but that's not what Im asking.
2) Is it available on all versions (unlocked, T-Mobile, Orange??)
To assist with getting a definitive answer to the second question, please include the carrier/store you bought your handset from.
Thanks in advance for your help!!
initially i thought this thread was about how good voice to text was, but then read your post. So i'll comment on both.
I got my desire direct from t mobile, and voice to text was not a function i could find. It wasn't until i downloaded the keyboard app referenced in other posts, and then switched to android keyboard instead of the stock htc keyboard, that i could find and use speech to text. I presume that the speech to text button was always present on the android keyboard and the extra keyboard app only activated the function which wasn't working before. However, as i only found out how to activate the android keyboard after i downloaded the extra keyboard app, I can't be too sure.
I can only issume that it would be the same for the generic ROM and other network ROM users. But from hearing about the people who have received the OTA update it seems that speech to text function may be changing or being disabled. I definitely hope not, though.
I used speech to text for half of this message. It seems to be working really well for me, despite what a lot of other people are saying. It's definitely not perfect, but i can see it as a function i will use often. I look forward to it getting better, and hope it will stay on the desire.

[Q] Possible to Theme Messaging?

After searching for quite awhile now, I haven't found anyone/anywhere that has themed the messaging app. I'm running CM7 RC2 (amazing) and have been running AOSP for awhile now. I would like to know what is involved in customizing the look of the messaging application. In looking through the .apk it seems like there would be more to it then simply changing .pngs. Are there .xml edits that would have to be made as well?
Specifically, I want to make some sort of conversation "bubble" for each sms/mms in a thread. (Yes, kind of like the iOS messaging look, but no, not the same. I despise the iPhone.) I realize I'm taking multiple risks of burning in fire by posting this but I figured I would try anyway...

Emojiiiiiiiiii

I was on AOKP a few days ago, jumped back to Blazer 4.1 due to the smoothness. Something that AOKP had that was tight was the built in Emoji in MMS.
I was reading and there seems to be a way to replace certain font files to see Emoji's instead of boxes, but I can't get it working. I've moved things to System/font and deleted things, with no positive result.
Here is my question... can somebody post how to get Emoji to be able to be viewed? I understand you need a different keyboard to input them, that isn't an issue, but in order to see them from other people (iPhone users), I need assistance with the font files.
Or, if somebody could post that MMS.apk from AOKP, that would work as well. The font way looked more appealing, simple because it decodes them on other apps, not just the MMS app, but beggers can't be choosers.
Thanks guys!

[Q] Texting Notification Actions App & Google VM + Call Log App?

Hi everyone!
I recently installed LiquidSmooth on my ROM, and I absolutely love the feature of being able to modify texts directly from notification center (Reply/Mark As Read/etc.). Unfortunately it doesn't support personalized notifications, though, for people [certain text sounds/LED colors for specific contacts], or call blocking.. I was wondering if anyone has discovered an alternative text messaging application which may allow this, or whether it's only available through native .. ): ..
I was also wondering if there is an alternative dialer that supports the Google Voicemail integration.. I've been using ExContacts, but it doesn't seem like they do.. [I like it for its swipe left/right for text/call]. I was going to just use ExContacts as my contacts manager and the native call log, but just wondering if there exists another call log application that supports Google VM?
[For LiquidSmooth Users -->] .. since I'm asking a gazillion questions as is.. wondering if anyone knows how to modify the strength of the vibrate? I see a "Vibrate Multiplier" option, but it doesn't modify all of my notifications [I noticed some apps have the option of modifying the strength, but others do not] .. Also, I know some people have been asking this, but have people discovered a way to lower the LED brightness for notifications?
(And I did do my best to Google/search forums/read threads, but I couldn't find answers to these questions.. ;-; .. I was going to post in the developer thread, but I realized I didn't have enough posts ^^;; .. but I will be trying to be more active so hopefully I can get there too so that I can post in the arguably more suitable sections :3)
Thanks so much for anyone who has thoughts/ideas! ^^ .. This forum has been very helpful and able to answer all my other questions so .. win! ^^

Remove Special Characters From Samsung Keyboard?

Is it possible to remove the special accented characters from the stock (4.3) keyboard? I didn't have this issue before flashing 4.3, but now almost every time I try to do a long-press when swyping I end up with a special accented character instead of the , or ( or : or @, etc. I thought that if I removed the language (like Spanish) they would likely go away, but I can't even find a way to even do that through settings. I am rooted and really not afraid to delete stuff via a file manager if someone can point me to the right files.
I'd love to know how to do this too. The special characters are killing me. I don't mind the characters like ! and @, but I hate the others because, like you, I keep accidentally switching to them.
Thanks for the confirmation of sanity. I was thinking I was the only one. Never did figure out how to do it but it's still bugging the crap out of me.
Me three! Anyone know how to do this?

You try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2471321 I havent but did a little searching..

Never thought to search for the reverse (adding languages) as a solution, but it might just work. I'm on vacation and don't want to hose my phone, but I'll try it when I get home this weekend.
Delved into the suggested solution above pretty deep, but couldn't get those characters to go away even after removing what I believe was Spanish languages/characters from that configuration file. I rebooted with each change, but still no go. I suspect the problem is that we're not actually using the stock Samsung keyboard config, but are using some sort of add-on SwiftKey keyboard that is built in to the stock ROM. I think the config file that needs the edited has something to do with SwiftKey instead of the OS. I don't really like Swype so I might try the paid version of SwiftKey to see if it has a way to remove those chars but have a similar keyboard layout that I'm used to. Hopefully they won't even be there by default.
I have the same problem. I try to end a question with? But end up with ñ
