The jonasl mod allows you to set a gesture to switch between keyboards. I use right swipe for that, so with a flick I can go from qwerty to compact qwerty to T9 and back. Very convenient

thx, I do not know that i'll try

If the keyboard functions correctly with the N1, it shouldn't be that much work to compare the image sizes between the original and the one you want to use. Resize the images to the correct sizing and edit up any that need it, insert them back into the apk and re-sign.

[Q] Adding languages to Gingerbread keyboard?

Guys!
Does anybody know how to add more languages for Gingerbread keyboard in TNT_Lite 4.2.2?
Actually I need Russian.
I installed MoreLocale and chose Russian - it translated all menus, but didn't give opportunity to pick Russian in Input languages setting...
I appreciate any advices.
Thanks!

You need to find the libjni_cyrillicime.so lib file the libjni_latinime.so is the english file. It needs to go into the /system/lib/ dir.

Didn't help me.
I even installed Gingerbread keyboard from market - but can't choose it from Language&Keyboard setting.

What ROM are you on.
Vegan, and Adam allow changing of the keyboards easily, TNT-lite (due to TNT) did not till 4.2.0
On the google search bar long press, and the selection menu will show up allowing you to select the gingerbread keyboard.
the gingerbread keyboard was installed by default in 4.2.1 TNT-Lite, 4.2.2 added the adam keyboard.
Hope that makes it clearer

I use TNT_lite 4.2.2 (latest one).
And yes, I know that I can choose between keyboards.
Bot none of them has option "Russian".
I tried to replace libjni_latinime.so to one that comes with my Nexus One - didn't help.
Adam keyboard setting crashes every time that I touch Languages button.
If I install any keyboard from Market - I can't activate it in Settings menu.
Checkbox doesn't become checked.
So I still have the same problem.

Seek and Ye shall find.
The GB keyboard thread.
Doesnt look like cyrillic has been hacked in yet

Finally found Russian Gingerbread keyboard here - http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=207680
Put it in /system/app an fixed permissons.
Works perfect!!!

[Q] Bluetooth Keyboard Choices - Genius or Sony

Hi,
I am looking for a bluetooth keyboard that could bring along with me on the road in case I need to work out of office. Usually I'll need to use native email client, remote access through RDP for general OA tasks.
Anyone tried any of the bluebooth keyboards below, and could share with me about the user experience?
Genius LuxePad A9000
Sony Tablet S Bluetooth Keyboard
Thanks

Very interesting. I also need a bluetooth keyboard for my galaxy tab 7300.
I have a question, does these keyboards support multi-language support?
What layout uses the bluetooth keyboard, its own, or system?

The Samsung input method seems to "fix" some of the mappings. For example it allows the swedish ÅÄÖ to be typed on a swedish bluetooth (or USB) keyboard but not everything is mapped correctly. Also the CTRL and ALT keys are not working for me when the Samsung Input method is used.
I do not know if it works better or worse on other layouts but switching input method to "Android Keyboard" will make it use Standard US layout and makes CTRL and ALT work again.
I've written apps that overrides the US layout for several non-US layouts and that is what I use with my Swedish/Finnish bluetooth keyboard (requires a rooted device).

I want to use AnySoftKeyboard layout with Lithuanian characters such as ĄČĘĖĮŠŲŪŽ, because it is most confortable to use.
So I'm wondering if it work with bluetooth, USB keyboards.
kallt_kaffe: I will buy your app if it would be for lithuanian language

Send me a photo of a standard Lithuanian keyboard where all keys can be seen and I'll see what I can do.

This is LT layout that I'm using on PC and wish to have on my tab. I appreciate your effort.

I need more info than that. Like for example what characters are used when SHIFT is pressed and when ALT-GR is pressed.
I found this http://qnx.projektas.lt/en_ltkbd.html
I suppose it it the top one you want? Where numbers are available when holding down the ALT button. Perhaps I can add both variants.

I want this layout "lt_LT_numeric – Lithuanian numeric keyboard", because it is most commonly used.
"The most widely used layout at the moment. Lithuanian letters occupy and replace numbers in upper row of keyboard. Use of Alt Gr key often eliminates need switch between layouts."
Best from Lithuania, I will spread the word.
p.s. this weekend I was visiting Stockholm on a day trip

Thank you very much. I will tell all my friend about this goodness

A little follow up on this thread. The old app that required root is now obsolete and has been replaced with an app that does not require root and comes with over 30 different predefined layouts out-of-the-box. It is also possible to create a whole layout from scratch or modify one of the predefined ones.

Make certain you are not applying ANY language selection to the keyboards in the settings. The Hardware keyboard is NOT a standard en-US keyboard, and those bindings break the special keys.

But since we can edit the keyboard's code, can't i just make it work with my language?

You can, but there's another method for that. Specifically, the one being discussed in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2314834
The keyboard settings application's applied layouts do not work for us.

I think that thread is dead, can you help me with enabling alt key?
I know how to edit system files etc. But I dont really know what to do exactly, and how to make the changes work.

[APP][4.0+]Clavis Keyboard - PC-like tablet keyboard

Hi Everyone!
I use a Lenovo Yoga tablet, and struggled for a while with the keyboards made for smartphones. Every time I had to write a character with an accent (éáóúöüőűí) I had to hold the key, and wait for the alternative characters to appear. They didn't really help with coding either, so I tried the Hacker's Keyboard. It was quite good, but if we can have the whole PC keyboard on screen with all the modifier buttons, why not use its potential and add hotkeys? This is how Clavis Keyboard was born.
Clavis Keyboard is a PC-like keyboard for tablets, with numerous hotkeys.
Features:
-Familiar: The keys are where you'd expect them to be
-Well-known hotkeys: Copy-paste-cut and select all work like on PC
-New hotkeys: Search for selected text on Google (Ctrl+G)
Open a new e-mail, paste selected text (Ctrl+M)
Insert text macro 0-9 (Ctrl+Shift+Number)
Change the first letter of the last word before the cursor from lowercase to uppercase or back (Ctrl+I)
Home (Ctrl+Left arrow)
End (Ctrl+Right arrow)
-Themes: There are numerous themes already, but I'm planning on adding much more.
-Layouts: US, GB, DE, FR, IT, BE, HU
I welcome any questions, advices, requests and ideas regarding Clavis!
You can download Clavis Keyboard here:

Please fix, "Caps Lock, on/off". The letters doesn't change.

This looks really good, and I'm excited to test it a bit more when I get the chance. I did notice a few things:
I'm on Lollipop (CM12.1, on a Nook HD+), and the initial setup was a bit of a pain. After enabling the keyboard, step 1 of 3, nothing happened. I had to back out of the settings and manually progress to the next steps (selecting the keyboard to use). Not sure where the issue lies, but other keyboards have set up properly.
Settings -> Language & Input -> tapping Clavis Keyboard Free (to open Options) gives an error: "Failed to open settings for Clavis Keyboard Free"
Behavior settings have untranslated group headings, and one option ("Gyors pont Pontot ir ha duplan koppintasz a szokozre")

Thanks for the feedback!
The setup is new and actually worked when I made it, but it seems I managed to mess up the code just before release
I'll patch these very soon.

Its me again, been using it a bit more and i do like it, especially that you can adjust the height on screen. Have a bug, a question, and a suggestion.
auto uppercase doesnt seem to be working, from the start of text entry and also after a period. ive tried disabling and reenabling it, and still no go.
Is auto correct disabled, or just not implemented?
Can you add an option to adjust the key repeat delay?
Thanks, and keep up the good work!

Hi, does it have polish letters?

like the keyboard, and I tried on phone, but it is too small, in my opinion. can you optimize for phone as well

Yeah thanks a lot, and thanks for IT Layout!

Autocorrect is not yet implemented. First I want to fix the known bugs, but I will definitely include it later on
I'll take a look, and will tell you what I could do about the key repeat delay and the auto uppercase.

Sadly not yet. I plan to add the spanish and the portugese layouts next, and then hopefully the polish. Problem is, I got no friends who could translate the scripts for me, so it'll certainly take some time :/

Well I made it especially for tablets, but you can try to increase the height and use it in landscape. Maybe later on I'll come up with something to make it more comfortable, but right now it's not my primary goal. Sorry

testing the new keyboard. doesnt seem to have any auto correct?

May I help in adding Hebrew characters layout?
If so, how?
Here's how a standard Hebrew keyboard looks like:
http://store.aramedia.com/shopimages/products/normal/kb-hebrewwhite.jpg
Do note, that since Hebrew is a right-to-left language (like Arabic), it has weird behavior on some keyboards, like putting "(" instead of ")" . I really hate it, and would be happy to have the option to disable this behavior (it even happens on Windows OS , but somehow only on some apps).
Since Hebrew doesn't have uppercase letters, when pressing SHIFT or CAPS-LOCK, it just writes in English. However, on Android, those keys are gone, and you can long click on any key to have the alternative being written on it.
Attached how it looks like on various Android keyboards apps.

Please, make a pt-br layout... You idea is great

Good idea! Great keyboard.

You wouldn't have to code or anything, just translate a few lines from English to Polish.
By the way I've just finished the Polish layout. It will be included in the next version (without translation for now).
