[Q] Keyboard languages - Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When i go to /system/T9DB/... I see files such as phonepad_bg.kdb and qwerty_bg.kdb. Are these the keyboard and phone language files and is it safe to delete the unnecessary ones?

Add Locales/translate Android UI and HTC Sense

Hi everyone. The question is: Is the above possible? Can I manually edit the translations of the languages on an Android phone? And is it possible with HTC Sense UI?
I know there is the MoreLocale2, but it's far from perfect. (the Settings menu and most text on the UI stays english with the hungarian option)
HTC doesn't want to add hungarian, but Samsung and Sony Ericsson (X10) made hungarian translations.
It's not just for hungarian, it's for every language that's been excluded.
yes it is possible but you would gave to edit a lot of apk's within sense UI for it to be 100 percent complete as most of the language data us stored within the apk its self and would take a considerable amount of time to edit each one individually and resign the entire Rom.
best bet really is more locale. you can also chandelier these settings in /system/customize in the default.xml files but language support it limited to what the apps were compiled with.

I want to do that in this galaxy 551 rom: http: //hotfile.com/dl/135840464/6df9e71/GT-I5510_DBT_I5510XWKPB_I5510XXKPK_I5510DBTKP1.rar.html It's german, and have Pt-Pt, but don't have Pt-Br. I just want to translate the system phone language, not all apps. Can you show me how to do it and put here the files needed to be changed? Also the files location in rom. Thank you.

T9 diacritics remover

Is there any app that can automaticly remove diacritics from words from T9 dictionary? Since I've installed polish T9 pack I'm forced to remove them manually - it simply drives me mad
Wat do you mean? You want to remove your stores entries from T9 Dict?
Got to settings>personal>input and scroll to word completion tab and delete the entries.
No... I'm seeking app that can automaticly turn for example "mądrość" into "madrosc"
Vekh, would ask experienced member like Lechux....http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=1775766

[Q] Import dictionary into stock keyboard

I always used swiftkey on my N1. Now I have a Nexus S and I really like the stock keyboard, but there is no Dutch dictionary on the Nexus S.
Is it possible to import a custon(Dutch) dictionary into the stock keyboard? That would be really nice
You could try this package I created from CyanogenMOD 7 for Nexus S. It can however be installed on ModacoROM as I have and probably also stock nexus s.
It has the dutch keyboard/autocorrect hidden under 'Italian'. I didn't know how to get it under its own language. So I abused the Italian language for that.
I'm not sure if you need root either to install, anyway good luck with it.
If you have successfully installed it, you'll get another Android keyboard in your language and keyboard menu. Select the languages you want and Italian for the dutch dictionary. Please be aware you need to set them in both settings when you click "Input Languages" (it asks you to complete action using).
Should be fairly safe, you can remove it under manage applications and then choosing "Android keyboard". The stock keyboard that ships with the device itself and can't be removed afaik.
good luck.

Is it possible to add custom keyboard languages (that are defined in the SDK) without root?
I think you would need to build/compile it from AOSP. What I'm doing is probably quick and dirty but it works (I'm still new to this android development). Think you need root though to install this.
If you like I could try and make another APK with Swedish keyboard/autocorrect hidden under the Italian language.

That would be awesome!
Oke. Here is the Swedish APK. Select Italian 2 times when you try to select the input languages (for each action).
Might need a reboot to have it work, didn't need it here. Also I'm on a rooted nexus s and haven't tested it without root.
I'v tried removing it from application management, which works. After that you are back to the stock keyboard. Looks safe so far
have fun..
note: I used adb install LatinIME.apk to install this.

Thanks, I've tried but can't get it to work. What do you mean with: Select Italian 2 times when you try to select the input languages (for each action)?
EDIT: Okay, understood. Still doesn't work. Unrooted also.
Hmm.. So it installs and you get another android keyboard in your settings menu right?
What might help is installing another keyboard (free from market). set that as default (select it as input method in browser for instance). go to settings and select the recently installed android keyboard i gave you. deselect all languages in the input languages menu (once for each action popup). close settings, open it up again. select english and italian in input languages (once for each action popup) and close settings.
now open text messaging or anything else that uses the keyboard. select the android keyboard as input method. hold the spacebar and select italian. it should now give you swedish predictions.
i'v seen it here also that it at times didn't give me dutch, but after redoing all the settings it fixed it.
just make sure you have enabled the keyboard in the settings menu and set the settings for it like i said. if it doesn't work i don't know.
Is there any other way to get, for example, the Dutch dictionary in the Gingerbread keyboard, without having to abuse one of the existing languages? Can't you just add additional languages?
I'm using a Nexus S, and I heard that there are versions of the phone that download additional keyboards during the initial setup, based on the location of the phone (network, country, ...), if they have an internet connection available, see for example this screenshot: h~t~t~p~:~/~/~plixi~.~com~/~p~/~67798426 (can't post a link, so just delete all ~ chars).
I'm also wondering if this method won't cause problems when you get an OTA upgrade (e.g. to 2.3.3). Will you need to do it all over again? :-s
Thanks!
Has there been any progress on this? I don't know why android doesn't just include all languages possible. If an iPhone can do it, surely our phone should!
I heard that Android 2.3.3 adds support for a lot more languages, also on the US/UK Nexus S, including Dutch ...

Other languages on MM

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone knows of any edits (rooted) I can make that would allow the stock MM (6.0.1) to give me all available languages rather than just the stock? I'm looking to add Japanese to my list of languages -- system wide that is, not just input -- but no matter what I do, it only gives me the stock languages. I've tried More Locale which doesn't release the languages to me and Language Enabler. I would love the native Japanese system language and well, the option to use any language I want.
EDIT: Deleting and changing the language.xml in System/csc doesn't work for me either.
Thanks

Changing Language on 3ds

Hi I would like to ask how to change the language of a Japanese 3ds. It was already hacked (B9S no card) and it is region free. But because it is a Japanese 3ds, the home menu and system apps are in japanese. Is it there a way that will not lose the hack? Also is there is a way to do without reinstalling a firmware like language pack or something?
