Chinese Traditional and Simplified - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

At this moment I am still using Windows Mobile. However, with the bad Apple clone Windows Mobile 7 coming up I am thinking about switching to Android in the future.
One problem I have is Chinese display and entry. I want an English interface, but need both Traditional and Simplified (preferably PinYin entry). I know there is a PinYin entry method for Simplified Chinese. What I would like is the same for Traditional. Is that available by now?

Sogou will suit your needs

HI there,is there any application for chinese hand-writing input,
for the Window Mobile I am using HanWang hand writing input,any for android??

chinese handwriting input .. you can use the Motorola MOTO chinese input method ..
you can switch between normal keyboard, handwriting input method.
for normal keyboard, you can switch between chinese and english .. chinese you can input by pinyin (and fuzzy pinyin) ..
for handwriting input, it recognises english handwriting, and chinese handwriting .. you can input simplified or traditional chinese characters ..
this is great .. i love it ..

And it works on all versions of Android? Heard it only works up to 1.6.
MTB: Sogou is that from QQ? I use the Windows Mobile input from them and love it.

HTC CIME is your best choise,so you can only choose a HTC Sense device like legend and so on,I use it for T9 pinyin and handwriting input,also full keyboard is woking well too,
but why don't you try Voice input ?you will be suprised,trust me.

Sougou is from soho.com,QQpinyin is from QQ of course.

Well, I thought I read somewhere that QQ bought Soho. Well, you read a lot on the internet!

For those that are interested -- QQ Pinyin is now also available for Android and works great, just like on WM. Even with the Pro2's hardware keyboard. I love the fact that you can easily switch between CHT and CHS.

AAdditional languages on the HTC HD2 keyboard

By default the HD2 keyboard comes with 5 languages. Does any one know how to incorporate additional languages? I am specifically interested about the greek language.
I also are intrested in alternetive language keyboard settings. I want Swedish, and that im thinking of keyboard support for Bluetooth Keyboards. External BT keyboards works great, but cant se that im using a Swedish Keyboard. We have the darn å,ä,ö thats messing up the usability for me.
Any Ideas?
Thnx in advance

Swedish keyboard
I'm also looking for a swedish keyboard! PLEASE!!
These subjects are addressed here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5138044 for HTC LEO.
Use the search tool on the top bar with key words like t9, xt9 or even et9 and your preferred language. You might find a suitable solution on another device's topics.
Also, I asked makeveral to implement a selection tool on his BsB app http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5136662. If you think it's a goo idea, add a post to his topic saying so. Good luck!
Use Fingerkeyboard 2.1 for additional languages... its free and has a much better interface than the standard keyboard. You can switch between languages easily...

[Q] Japanese IME

I'm pretty sure I've tried almost all of the available IMEs.
I'm wondering though, is there a Japanese IME that has automatic english correction (like what the normal keyboard does) and is able to type Japanese?
Normal english kb does correction automatically.
e.g.:
wjat -> what
The japanese IME I tried so far doesn't have those.
But I might be missing some really good ones.
So if anyone knows one that does english word auto-correct and Japanese input, please tell me.
Thank you.
P.S: I know Smart Keyboard does something like this, but the Japanese Dictionary they use is pretty horrible...

Other languages for Android Keyboard?

So I've tried Android Keyboard as well as Samsung's and GO keyboard, but I like Android Keyboard the best. Is there a way to hit a single button (or a button and a choose from a pop-up, either way a "simple method") to use other languages with Android Keyboard? I've been googling this for days and everything I've found was people saying "yeah this works but it's meh." So if anyone knows a language input for Android Keyboard more like what I described above, let me know
I'm looking for Chinese and Japanese in particular.
You try sogou input method
I use slide it. You use the swipe method or touch. I use a dvorak layout for my keyboard which is basically another language. There is a dedicated button for switching back and forth between whichever languages you have installed.
Sogou was 100% in Japanese/Chinese so I have no idea how to use it and the pics didn't look like a keyboard plugin
Swipe is awful imo :/ I prefer to just type. If anyone knows any good swype keyboard that's actually really good, I'll try that too but I just want a Japanese and/or Chinese (Simplified) plugin for Android keyboard
is there any korean too?

Well, there are hands of Chinese/English keyboard developed by Chinese company. Unfortunately few of them offer enough downloading/handling support.

Chinese input keyboard

Anyone has any recommendations on keyboard that allows input of Chinese characters? I am currently on CM9 rom, using Android keyboard. Was a bit surprised to find that it doesn't support Chinese input.
Go keyboard definitely, and I'm pretty sure Swiftkey has chinese characters. My choice would be Swiftkey, but I use it for English and Arabic, no idea how it is for Chinese.
Nope, swift doesn't have. I just downloaded it from market militia to check.

google keyboard

i am using huawei ascend mate 7 device when using google as my default keyboard i dont find any of the english languages under active input method .. So the only way to select english is to change the whole device's language to english ...
yeah me too!
Why don't you simply use the Swype keyboard? It's very comfortable and allows for quite a bit of customization.
