Hi there!
I am constantly switching input methods and languages, and fortunately Swype makes it easy enough to do the last one.
The thing is: my main input method is Swype, either in portuguese our english. But when I'm editing a spreadsheet, for instance, I actually prefer the stock HTC keyboard, for which I have turned off word suggestion and completion.
So, I would like to know if anyone here knows a way to automatically change the input method depending on the app I'm currently using. That would be just perfect!
Cheers

Hello all,
I would like to know if it is possible to modify the HTC keyboards stock dictionary. Basically I would like to force it to type "the" every time I accidentally type "Tue".
I am currently using the XDA version of the keyboard, and know that it is possible to edit the user dictionary.
Thanks.

x3, im sick of it trying to shove "OS" onto my texts instead of "is"
I think if you type the word enough it starts to use the other one.
Alright, to get to the user dictionary, pull up the keyboard and look for the microphone icon, it should also have a gear under it on that same button. long press it and this brings up the touch input settings. Scroll down to user dictionary and add or remove any words you would like. The nice thing with that is now I never text ducking to people........
Hi, I would like to know how to access HTC dictionaries too. I am currently deodexing a Gingerbread 2.3.5 ROM to try an d find the needed apk and all.
I am using a ROM which doesn't support French dictionary, spell-checking, or prediction (obviously you might say if there is no dict...) and would like to add at least this dictionary.
Could anyone point me in the right direction ? I would be grateful !
Edit : HTC_IME.apk from stock ROM did the job for me. Check my post here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1521922
I didn't find out about it until yesterday, but it works awesome. I'm even using it to write this message LOL.

It does work well. It even picks up "naughty" words, which is useful for when I'm mad at people.
But... the thing that sucks about it is that if you have your input method set to Dragon, you get the crappy dragon keyboard if you need to type, which doesn't support Swype or do any spelling corrections. If you want a decent keyboard because you are in a loud area, you have to manually switch it back to the Swype keyboard.
Dragon? Are you listening? Please fix.
Swiftkey is the best keyboard out IMO. Better than Swype or any carrier specific KB.
I would like to type Japanese and Korean using default keyboard on apps such as GMail or text message to write messages in these languages.
Is there anything I can do besides custom rom or rooting? I plan to use stock ROM as long as possible
I noticed that I could change the menu in Korean or Japanese, but that's not what I want. I would like to keep the menu in English.. but it's just that I would like to have a keyboard option.
It doesn't seem like none of the Asian language option is available.
Please help me out! Thanks!
I would do a Google search for "Japanese ime" or "japanese htc ime." I think I saw a few options but I haven't tried any myself. That should point you in the right path.

I know Google offers a Korean IME free in the marketplace. Not sure about the Japanese situation.

He is right. Search "ime" in market and you will find what you need.

Thank you all for the help. I'll try that out later tonight
I use Simeji for Japanese.
I found 'Korean IME' made by Google themselves on Android Market and this definitely works. Thank you again!
sweet thanks! I just downloaded it and it works really well. now I have this and my gingerbread MTM keyboard to type in both languages.
I picked up this keyboard when it was free on the Amazon App Store a while back. It's awesome! You have several different input options:
tap-type
trace (like Swype)
voice (great recognition!)
write (like a stylus)
I use the voice method most, but all of them work really well. And unlike a lot of other aftermarket keyboards, this one has numbers and special characters on long-press (they're shown above the letters).
The only thing I'm missing coming from the stock HTC Sense keyboard is the directional buttons for moving the cursor around text fields - without a trackball, it's kind of a pain to move around by touching. At least this keyboard has a 'pointer' you can drag around, which makes it a little easier.
Any other great keyboards out there?
I'd like a keyboard I could fully customize. I'd love to be able to remove the buttons that I never use and just get in the way (voice button, language button, etc).
I'd also like to force the predictive text to pick the words I want by default. Typing "aren't" always tries to replace it with "seen" grrrr.

SwiftKey X is a good one to use too. There's a free beta in the market, and by far the best keyboard I've used

The arrow keys on Gingerbread are hidden but can be brought in by just dragging the spacebar up and hidden by dragging it down, which I like since I hardly use them but still need them every once in a while
Is there a way to make the keyboard default to FlexT9 or Swiftkey or whatever you have installed? It's kind of annoying to have to set it up every time I restart the phone.
Is anyone out there using Swiftkey tablet. I use it because of the Dvorak keyboard layout, mainly because the Note doesnt seeem to support keyboard layouts other than Qwerty.
When I type in Swiftkey it seems to be registering multiple keystrokes. This doesnt happen in the stock samsung keyboard or SlideIt
No problems here. Try uninstalling and then re installing

Did you try Polaris Office and S Note.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling but to no avail. Still does it in these two apps.
I'm using SwiftKey without any issues. I've used both Polaris and S Note. Did you try a restart? Could be some sort of magnetic issue that might be resolved that way. Big bummer. Sorry.
I have swiftkey on all my devices except the Note10.1.
Does Swiftkey support big, small hovering and split keyboard like original keyboard ?

It supports big and split, but no hovering.
does using a keyboard other than the stock one still allow you to use the S-pen instead of the keyboard whenever you want to? I know that the stock keyboard has the setting button that you press to select text recognition for using the pen within the browser.
Think it's a common issue but I can't get SwiftKey T to learn from my Gmail.
Anyone else having this problem?? Or have a suggestion.??

I'm using SwiftKey 3, but I've been experiencing a lot of freezing+force closing when using it with Chrome.
Hovering would be nice. It offers all else that I need.
Hi all,
I work for SwiftKey. Please be sure to post bug reports (one at a time) on our public forum at support.swiftkey.net. We also welcome suggestions there. Regarding Droidcarp's note that there appears to be some difficulty with personalization, our Dev Team has been made aware of this report and they are looking into it for you.
Again, our public forum is the best place for suggestions and bug reports. This allows us to streamline the development process so we can continue to make SwiftKey as excellent as possible for you.
Thanks very much,

As long as you dropped in, HWR would be good, too. Sammy offers a hover keyboard and HWR, also. Started using their split keyboard - very nice - and offers HWR.

Thanks for the tip budalica.
Any idea how to get the handwriting key to be included?
It is a shame the standard samsung keyboard doesnt support dvorak
Definitely needs handwriting support and the arrow keys like the phone keyboard.
For now it's fine to leave the stock keyboard set on handwriting and use the keyboard switcher in the notifications to switch but it would be useful for it to be integrated.
Also maybe a way to adjust the width, in split mode it seems too wide and I have big hands!
I switched to swift key also from swype today and noticed an echo like effect in snote, working fine in the xda app but broken in the snote app.

My stock Samsung keyboard can no longer provide haptic feedback after installing the SwiftKey tablet, does anyone have the same problem.? I think doesn't matter how you change the settings, and it just doesn't vibrate
