I have a few keyboards on my Tab S, but i can't find a way of switching between them.
I can see in my settings that i have Swiftkey, swype and the default samsung one, which it is stuck on. .. i can select either in the settings>General> Language but it doesn't affect the actual keyboard when i come to write things. .. is there a shortcut, or a setting to change the keyboards?
Otherwise, it seems the only way would be to uninstall, then reinstall. .. which seems bonkers. .
Help .. Thanks
I can change my keyboard just fine. Settings, general, language and input, then I just touch the box next the the keyboard i want and then hit default (above the samsung keyboard and pick the one i want. Heres a pictures. Maker sure you change the default to the keyblard you want.
ahh.. the default button... Obviously! Yeah.
Doh!
Thanks..

Sorry if this was asked before.
How can I disable spell correction when writing SMS? I've unchecked everything in Text input settings, but there is always red dotted underlining of words. This happened after OTA update.
Thanks!
If you have an alternative keyboard you'll have to change the settings of that one. And maybe you could take a look at your language settings too, see if those are set right.
Hope it helps...
Hi,
I have the same problem.
Alternative keyboard is one solution.
I choose the HR button on my stock keyboard and now I have red line only under misspeled words or when I use specific uncommon words.

Same problem
If someone found where lies a problem?
Pozdrav dečkima iz HR!, ako ste saznali kak to rjesiti, javite plis.
If you don't mind, you can go around the problem.
In stock SMS application there are red dots. In 3rd party application, there aren't.
I am using GoSMS Pro
I don't know any other solution.

go to "keyboard" under settings and untick the first (or se second) option ...
worked for me
You have to change it in your keyboard settings. Language and Keyboard -> Touch Input -> 4th option Text Input or similar (mine is Dutch ) -> 2nd option Spelling correction or similar (Dutch as well)
Hope it helps...
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
Every time I open the keyboard it automatically loads to handwriting with s pen. How do I change this to default load a keyboard with keys.
I looked in language and input but couldn't find any relevant settings.
Thanks for all help

are you trying to do the keyboard with the s pen out? If so it defaults to handwriting
Yes, thanks. Is there a way to turn that off?
I actually just found out how. When keyboard is displayed tap and hold the key between Sym and the space bar. There's a small info pane for the keyboard and on the bottom right is the settings. From there you can turn off default hand writing with s pen.
I'm on the current 1.54.651.8 (well, a rooted version of it), and can't figure out how to change input methods, for example, to a 3rd-party keyboard.
It used to be, you'd long-press in an input field, and you'd get a prompt to select the input method.
Some say you should see a keyboard icon in the status-bar.
I don't get either of these. In settings / Language and keyboard, there's no obvious way to change the default device.
Long-press on the spacebar also does nothing (except to repeat space).
Is this maybe broken in this update? (Or in the BadSeed Rooted Stock 1.54.651.8 I'm running?)

If you get SwiftKey keyboard as you set it up it will say set as default might work
Hmm. Well, that worked.
The SwiftKey setup popped up the Choose Input Method dialog that I was looking for.
Then I selected Smart Keyboard as my input method.
I can't see uninstalling/reinstalling this every time I want to change the Input Method though.
Bring up a chat so your keyboard is open, then bring the notification bar down. There should be a keyboard listed, select the icon and choose your input method
Wheree are the default symbols on the keyboard like ! ? This keyboard sucks is there no options? Also it's not predictive typing remembering what I use often like email address when I start typing. This keyboard sucks from the one that came on my Samsung Galaxy S5 phone. Is there any damn settings in this keyboard at all or do I have to go download one?
Try holding the " , comma" down.
I installed the Google keyboard from the play store as i can change it to black instead of the white Samsung one.
John.
thanks would of never figured out to use comma
