Modding / Hacking HTC_IME for additional languages - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Hey everyone
I really love the HTC Keyboard (HTC_IME) but it doesn't have Hebrew.
Anyone knows if it's possible to mod/hack/reverse-engineer the keyboard and add new languages and/or run-over existing ones?
Anyone ever done this before and/or has some experience with it?

I'd like to know how to remove extra languages.

changing input method on android

Hi,
I'm about to order an Xperia X10, but i really hate using software keyboards (QWERTY).
Is there any way i can install/replace the QWERTY keyboard with a T9-keypad type input method like the one on my HTC Touch HD?
cheers in advance
Better Keyboard has a compact qwerty, and i`m pretty sure a T9 style as well. You might want to check out the leaked WVGA HTC_IME, it is considered by many to be the best soft keyboard available on android.
i found the HTC IME, it looks great. I havent recieved my phone yet, i'm wondering if its as easy to replace the IME on android as it is on Windows Mobile. I.E. will it feel hacked on or "native"? thanks
Changing input methods is supported natively.

HTC Chinese Handwriting

Anyone has the HTC Chinese Handwriting IME for Asian Sensation? I want to use a stock keyboard w/ Chinese on my T-Mobile.
go to the settings then language & keyboard then touch input then international keyboard, tick the 拼音
T-Mobile doesn't have the pin yin.
Also I was requesting for Handwriting, aka writing out the stroke.
I am still searching for handwritten as well
For pinyin use Google Pinyin for now. Ill post back here if i find handwriting
Try HanWang handwriting from the market. This is what installed on my wife's phone.

I would also love to get the HTC_IME that includes chinese input. I am having a hard time getting it working though. I was using android revolution HD for a while and i was able to select all the chinese inputs i wanted from the stock htc keyboard... so when i switched to the beast rom, i figured i could just take the HTC_IME.apk out of the ARHD rom and push it to /system/app.... it pushed in OK and i can choose "touch input", but under international, there is only english.
any help to get the stock chinese input working for us who need it would be great!! thanks all.
maybe there are some dependencies that also need to go along with the HTC_IME.apk in order to enable multiple language selection? anyone know?
Try HKIME which includes Traditional Chinese handwriting. It's available on Market.

Adding locales and input methods ?

Hey guys,
The x10 that I had had Chinese, Japanese, and Korean locale. It's Ericsson keyboard also had Chinese, Japanese, and Korean input.
However the Sensation only has the English and Spanish locale. The HTC keyboard also doesn't have Chinese, Japanese, or Korean input method. This really sucks because now I don't have a way to type Chinese/Japanese/Korean. (I dont want to download another keyboard. I like the HTC keyboard.)
There are many android phones in China/Japan/Korea which means obviously there are Chinese/Japanese/Korean local for android so does anyone know how I can get this ? Also HTC is Taiwanese so I'm SURE that HTC's keyboard has Chinese input. They also have HTC in Japan and Korea so I think HTC would provide Japanese/Korean input on the HTC keyboard instead of making the people download a separate Japanese/Korean keyboard. Does anyone know how I can get these input methods onto my HTC keyboard ?
Thanks,
d
Did you try this?

oh ok cool thanks.
what about the input method ? does anyone know how to get the other input methods on the HTC keyboard ?
You are out of luck with Japanese, but most ROMs come with pinying and zhu in as options on the bottom of the list. Is your Sensation stock? Try downloading Google Pinyin from the market. I think that adds it as an option for the HTC keyboard.

I use GO Keyboard for my Japanese fix. I'm pretty sure you can add Korean to it as well.

so theres no way to get chinese/korean/japanese input with the HTC keyboard even though HTC has phones out with chinese/korean/japanese input on the HTC keyboard in other markets ?

Sensation/related devices HTC IME dependencies

Hi guys, this has been posted before but it was moved out to Android general Q&A for no one to answer it ever again.
Please note that this is extremely specific, because the Sensation is the only international device that HTC released with S3 SoC and qHD screen, so it is the only device that might have the full Chinese IME support in HTC's keyboard.
Does anyone know how to add that support to a similar device like the Vivid or Amaze 4G? I have read that some have tried to replace the apk but it doesn't change anything, so it has to be some other dependency within the ROM that determines the languages available for use. Does anyone know what the files are, and how I can add more languages to an existing HTC IME setup on Sense 3.6 ICS?
