Setting up hebrew keyboard support on a smartphone? - General Questions and Answers

I was wondering if there was any way to add hebrew keyboard support to my HTC Ozone... I know I have to do something to the kmap or something, and then somewhere else said something about the registry.... on second thought - can someone just walk me through it step by step assuming (correctly, i might add) that I know absolutely nothing?
Thanks in advance.

anyone?

Keyboard Asus P750 only numbers

Hello
I updated my Rom for my Asus P750, I quit happy about that but now the keyboard is useless.
If I want to write a sms I can only write with numbers and no letter, so I have to use a stylus, but this Asus has a Keyboard which is made to use if you don't want to use a stylus, but now the keyboard is only for numbers.
If there is somebody who can help me, please.
Thank you in advance
Is there nobody who can help me?
I would appriciate if somebody could
It seems that you have some missing drivers. Unfortunately, I do not own the device so I can't help you. Try to flash the older rom back in the device (which obviously had the drivers in it).
Moreover, please keep in mind that this site provides support for HTC phones only. While we are happy to help whenever we can, sometimes it is best to go directly to the manufacturer, especially if you cannot find too much information online.
Sorry I can't be of any more help...
Thank you for the info, I a sorry if I posted something wrong.
Appricate you trying to help

Default input language

Hello. I've searched all over but could not find the right answer.
I installed Chinese language support (don't remember where I got it) to read and write/type in Chinese. While that's awesome, the default input is always Chinese (pinyin). I lived with it for a while, but it's really annoying. Every time I press a key on the keyboard or on the on-screen-keyboard, it thinks I'm trying to write something in pinyin. I have to slide open the physical keyboard and press control+space to switch to English. I have to control+space again to type English in the next text field.
I know someone will ask this, but no, changing input methods doesn't fix the problem.
My question: How do I make the default input language English?
Or maybe I should ask: Can someone recommend me a free software package to allow me to read and write Chinese that doesn't have this problem?

Looking for T-Mo phone with Arabic support

I am looking for a T-Mobile phone(preferably Android) that has support for the Arabic language. My dad needs to be able to read it on the web browser and be able to type it(which I think I already know how to do, as there are add-ons in the market for arabic soft keyboard) but I don't know how to make the websites and what not readable, so if anyone knows, please post lol. Dad is buggin me about it.

[Q] External bluetooth keyboard has English layout. How to change it to German?

Hi,
This weekend I bought a HTC Flyer and I'm so happy. There is one thing though that's killing me...
I also bought a Bluetooth keyboard so I can write faster when I write large texts etc. The thing is though that I can't change the keyboard layout to German (even if the Keyboard has a physical layout of German, the software keyboard layout is still English).
I can't find anything under the "Languages and Keyboard" settings so I'm currently a bit desperate.
How can I get my German configured android system to understand to use a "Germany layout keyboard" and not a "English layout"?
I really hope that someone can support me here...
Thanks
Hirrsson
PS: Please consider that I'm really a android newbie so I don't understand all the terms etc yet....
hello there to everyone
as this is my first post on this forum, i'd like to take this line to thank all of you whom share information, knowledge, and whatnot to all others: Thank You.
posting here to request the same informtion: pairing an external bluetooth keyboard forces said keyboard to be in english layout, whatever the keyboard. (in my case: french).
In locale the bluetooth keyboard does appears, offering Three settings, but none regarding layout.
I personaly see this as a feature that is lacking due to the fact that the os is intended to be primarily used via touchscreen keyboard; but i also think this feature is needed big time. now heading to official android feature request to see if it has been added to newer versions (am runing 2.3) and if not, request it.
I did this for my Stowaway Keyboard. It is a lot of work, you need root on your device, rootexplorer and Hexeditor.
I can guide you through if you wish.
Which phone? Which keyboard? What has to be changed? öäü? y-z ???

Multilinguage ICS advice

Hello guys. I was recently given a MT4G Slide to flash with any custom ROM (preferably ICS), with key criteria being stability and availability of various languages (not just keyboard, but change the whole OS). The phone will be used in Russia, therefore that's the language that needs to be added. I did look at most ROMS and no one really specifies which languages if any are in the ROM. I assume most slim ROMs don't have anything other then basic english/spanish. I wanted to ask if anyone with good stable ICS ROM can check if they have the Russian in the language selection menu. I understand it will be hard to come by as this is a US-only variant, but has hoping that many one of the cooks used stock google with multiple languages pre-installed.
Also, how hard would it be to remap the hardware keyboard or has anyone seen or knows where to purchase cyrilic keyboard for the device? Thanks for any info anyone can provide.

hate to be the negative nancy but this should be in the general section not the dev section
Blasphemous noob may the heavens rain down on thee with the vengeful hatred for that which we call ignorance and inability to follow forum rules!
The FBI has been alerted. Any second they will kick down your door and proceed to charge you with crimes that "you did not commit"
Yea we know, you're innocent.

Hi there!
I've already adopted the keyboard for russian locale. I'll provide you some instructions a bit later, when I'll be at my home computer. I use Russian Keyboard app with Virtuos Infinity beta1 mod, and I like it a lot - it supports custom layouts via xml, language toggle with sym button, and some other perks. Stay tuned

First of all, this is the wrong section for creating this kind of threads.
CyanogenMod (CM 9.1) supports all bunch of languages including Russian, Ukrainian, Arabic, many Asian languages and a lot more.
SKAm69, CM out-of-the-box does not support localization of the hardware keyboard - a third party app is needed for that. As for UI translation, I personally prefer English UI anyway.
So... here we go.
The archive includes: keychars/keylayouts - put it to corresponding folder in /system/usr and fix permissions (root is a must!), xml file for RuKeyboard and xls table to understand which letter goes where. Everything is made and tested on an ICS rom.
I usually switch languages with single press of the sym button, shift+sym does the symbol selection popup, alt+sym gives the smiles popup window.
www./com button is mapped as a tab, alt+www. gives a "www." input, shift+www. calls web popup window.
Every keymap can be customized using these files - just lurk a little bit and make a try.
