USB Keyboard Layout - Arabic with ALL keys - General Questions and Answers

Hi. I've only found one market program that provides keyboard layout for Arabic for external USB keyboard. However, it does not support all keys.
Can someone direct me to a way to get a layout that supports all keys?

[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

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.

ICS: Dock Keyboard input language is always English

Hi,
After I have installed ICS, I cannot use any other input language with the hardware keyboard. It is always English. No matter what keyboard I select: Android (Russian), Smart Keyboard or whatever I have english letters appear on key presses. On Honeycomb I had ASUS Keyboard which allowed to switch language using Ctrl-Space combination. Now I don't have the ASUS keyboard anymore. Have anyone been successful in typing non-English on the dock keyboard?

I have already made a quick hack keyboard to produce russian characters on dock keyboard key presses and switch to english using Ctrl-Space. It should be pretty straight forward to add other european languages if some one would like me to. Chinese, Japanese and Korean is tough and I have no plans to support them.
If anyone is interested, here is the hacked by me standard ICS android keyboard, which allows to type both russian and english on Transformer's dock keyboard. Left_Ctrl+Space changes layout. All other features should work correctly - soft keyboard, voice input...

[Q] Switching between two languages in ICS?

I've got a Logitech Bluetooth keyboard, it says that it's intended for iPad, but I had no problem with pairing it to my Hp TouchPad running ICS9 .
The only problem is that I'm using two language layout - English and Hebrew. I'm using Android built in touch keyboard and Installed this two layouts - All works well while I'm on the touch screen keyboard.
But - How can I swap between the two layouts on the external keyboard? Is there a ctrl+shift Shortcut like in the computer? Am I missing something?

Curious to know if you found anything... In JB you can switch between LAYOUTS (should you have more than 1 installed) with ctrl-space... but what about LANGUAGE?

I need some help with bluetooth keyboard layout

I use Colemak for English layout and standard Korean layout. If I were to use Qwerty and Korean, it works out of the box. I can switch between layouts by pressing Shift+Space with the default Samsung keyboard.
So I basically followed this thread's instruction to get Colemak to work.
My keyboard (HP bluetooth keyboard), however, does not generate a separate .kl file in the keylayout folder. So I tried editing Generic.kl. It worked, and the keyboard is now Colemak. Korean keyboard, however, is now messed up. Keys are moved around because I changed the layout from Qwerty to Colemak. It seems that Korean keyboard relies on layout being Qwerty.
I appreciate any help.
