I installed the htc_ime.apk. The hero keyboard is just amazing. The problem that I face like many many other users is that I write in French and German and text prediction is only available in English. Would anyone be able to provide the hero keyboard with more prediction languages? I believe that would help a lot of people! Many thanks!
If your ROM supports French and German you can set the XT9 language to those with a trick. First set your keyboard language and the system language to english, reboot, then set system language to french (or whatever) and reboot again, now your XT9 is in french. This works for Dutch in Cyanogen 3.6.8.
If you want to do it easier flash Smartphone France firmware, it has Dutch, German, French, English and Spanish XT9 and you can select the input lang from the keyboard settings.
doesnt work for me!
Actually I have the normal swiss cupcake and I have installed the HTC_ime. The xt9 language change works indeed when changing phone's language, even without restart. But I would like to be able to change xt9 language without changing phone's language. any ways to do that without loading another firmware?
is anyone able to bring this modification?
I'd also love this feature. I'm from Spain, but I like my phone in English (computers, and whatever), because of the poor quality and completeness of the translations. I'd love to be able to get back Spanish XT9
In the German "Telephone Keyboard" Mode, the letters ü/Ü, ä/Ä, ö/Ö doesn't exist...
Could someone help me please?
In the HERO Roms, they work fine...
I have the same issues, I live, in the US, speak english, like my phones, and everything in english, except, most of my texts are in spanish,
I don't want to have my whole phone in spanish, so just that I could write a text message, windows phones have this feature with no problems,
also better keyboard has it, but, I found out I like HTC keyboard better
This app is a floating translator and dictionary.
It supports Arabic, Catalan, Chinese, German, English, French, Hindi, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Latin, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish and Vietnamese. More languages will be added in next versions.
Link to Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=apps.easylife.translator
Having the interface in a resizable floating window, you can translate without leaving the app you are using, so that you have the text in front of you the whole time.
Furthermore, when you touch out of the window, it becomes a little ball so that it doesn't interfere with the reading/writing, and you can open it again with a tap. In a similar way to facebook messenger.
Features:
Floating window.
Translate without leaving current app.
Dictionary and synonyms.
Bubble mode to take up less screen.
Notification mode.
Bubble size can be changed.
Resizable and movable window.
Posiblity to lock it if you want it always there.
It remembers the position and size, so that you always have the same experience.
We haven't translated the interface of those languages we can't make sure the translation is acceptable (we don't trust google translate for that) so if anyone would like to translate it to his own language, we would really appreciate it.
It is our first app, and we want it to be as good as possible. Therefore we would appreciate your feedback, bug reporting, suggestions, and anything to improve it!
Special thanks to:
@pingpongboss for his awesome StandOut library.
Pere-Lluis for finding several bugs, for his ideas to improve the app and being always there to test alfa versions.
@omarainea for translating the app to arabic, and suggesting ways to improve the app.
Christian Orjeda for improving the german translation of the app.

Btw instead of a bubble, if theres a persistent notification in status bar, that will be better ... Like clicking minimize will send it as notification and we can click it to get it back onscreen ..

We are working on that. We have done that but it doesn't work well enough, yet. When we figure out how to do it properly it will be added. Thanks for your feedback!!

That would be great! apk attached :laugh:
We are working on a couple extra features that should be added to the app in a couple days, if we work out a couple difficulties.
wow, looks great, and how about Russian?
@lotdrops ,I think adding Arabic language to this app would make it really popular,
I can help you with that if you need any, I'm familiar with translating app, although I think translating this app would be different.
Anyway thank you for the incredible app, and keep up :fingers-crossed:

Arabic, with Russian (as I've just said) is planned to be added soon. We have to fix a couple things first and then we'll dig into it.
And if you can help translating, that would be awesome!!
It is definitely a very good app for learning new languages. A tip from me if you could start adding audio for the words too that would be great. I mean by that then we would be able to speak the way words are supposed to be pronounced. I don't know what would be the limitations for doing that, may be a lot of space would be required, but just a thought came to my mind.
Anyhow good work.

Adding a widget would be very helpful!

Thanks. This is a great app. Can you add Japanese and, perhaps, Mandarin?
Offline dictionary will be a nice feature if you can add it.
Great app! I'm currently always juggling between Google translate and messaging apps.
+1 to extend it to Hungarian in the future (Might not be the most popular but if there are not a lot of requests I may get lucky ).
