Hey, so without further ado i'll just describe my problem.
I just got my S6 edge and everything is perfect, except something that might seem not important but really irritates me:
I'm from Israeli, so obviously my mother tongue is Hebrew and so are my contacts.
I'm used to call using T9 method, the problem is i'm also used to English as my interface language, can't stand the Hebrew because it also changes the interface directions and confuses me a lot.
The problem is when my phone language is English there are only English letters on the dialer pad, and it doesn't allow me to look for a contact in Hebrew.
I looked for a way to add or change T9 language without any luck.
On my previous phone (S4) i used an alternative dialer, Ex Dialer, which was great and allowed me a lot of options, including adding a T9 language.
I would use it again now but I'm really not interested in rooting my phone, after rooting and too much flashing practically ruined my S4, and without rooting there's a problem that prevents the Ex Dialer app from cleaning unanswered calls and i have to open the stock Phone app each time I missed a call to clean it.
I'm looking for a way to use the stock dialer but change its language to Hebrew without having to use Hebrew as my main language, or any other alternative solution.
Thank you.
Anyone..?
A lot of time passed and i can't find a solution to this seemingly simple to solve problem... Anyone?

What's the easiest way to add a language? I prefer not to mess with the ROM, and I know I can get multiple language support with a third party software like touchpal, but is it possible to add one langauge (for T9 and/or spellcheck) without adding any software?
actually just tried touchpal and it's pretty good, no spellcheck but the T9 should be enough, I think I'll stick with it
Language packs for spelling checkers exist, for instance made by Molski.biz. These are just cab files you have to install. You'd have to search around a bit on this forum.
Hi all,
maybe I did something wrong but here's my experience with Resco keyboard 5.11
I installed the multi language version as it's supposed to support the Dutch language.
Whilst installing it asks for a language preference and Dutch is not in the list. F&*k-up #1
After installing, one can select a primary language and in that list I fount Dutch.
The Resco keyboard is default automatically after installing it.
Whenever I try to type a message with the Resco keyboard it persists in skipping letters in words every now and then which is more often that I like. Aka, multiple times a message. I disabled every form of correction in the general keyboard settings and in the resco keyboard settings just in case and I also lowered the gesture sensitivity to minimal but that doesn't help.
I found out there is no Dutch T9 support in Resco keyboard 5.11 so what the f^&k is multi lingual about it? That it supprorts the Euro sumbol? Wow
Whilst the keyboard itself when it works, works better aka easier than the standard TP on screen keyboard because of the nice spacing between the keys but that's just about everything that is great about it as it's nearly impossible to complete half a decent Dutch text message without manually correcting the forced spaces in the middle of words many times.
Am I the only one experiencing such a hard time with this keybard? I've installed it numerous times on several roms now and it keeps behaving the same.

this has got nothing to do with diamond and youd be better putting it to resco
i have no problem with it (english)
youll probably need to make your own dutch t9 version, but surely it is in dutch...
did you try reinstalling?
although i tried changing language and nothing seemed to happen :s

Well, this is the Raphael forum And I've only tried it on my Raphael (TP) and would like to know what experience others have with resco keyboard + the raphael so I'd say I'm in the right spot to ask.
Why would I have to make my own dutch t9 version when it is supposed to be multi-lingual with support for the Dutch language?
As stated, I tried installing it on numerous rom versions and reinstalling it too.
hehe, my bad, didnt mean diamond...meant it would be generic to all devices, not specific to touch pro
and resco forums would be the best place to ask
I'm on the look for a new keyboard as i've been using Resco Keyboard for a while now but find myself deviating from it slowly. It just has to many problems for me and i'm pretty sure there's something better out their that suits me.
Hi there,
First thread here for me. I've recently purchased a Touch Pro 2 ( Rhodium T7373 ) model number RHO100. It's a UK branded (i'm from the UK) one from vodafone but unlocked and flashed with the recent winM 6.5 ROM from HTC.
So I'm living in Australia, but I regularly converse with people from China ( friends and business ) and I use the sogou pinyin input system on all my computers. I found out they provide an IME for Windows Mobile at shouji.sogou.com.
So I downloaded it and installed on my TP2. It works wonderfully, much better than that piece of trash CE-Star. So far so good....
Anyway, here's the rub:
It's a tiny tiny issue but seeing as I'm British and living in Australia, my communications through mobile are predominantly in English. Ever since I installed the sogou pinyin IME every time I soft reset the phone, the Sogou input system is activated by default. If I change it back to the english it will stay that way until another soft reset, and baboom, there is sogou.
Whilst I love the input system, I'm such an anal retentive when it comes to little details like this, I'd rather not have the input system and have my english default than have to change every time after a soft reset I want to input english.
Is there a quick decisive way to restore the "Full QWERTY" option as the default when I turn the phone on. I'm not scared of editing the registry directly. I just need pointing in the right direction, be it to software or a registry.
I've already done my own research and I got as far as finding the "default SIP" registry key, but unfortunately for me it it seems like it's an encoded value, i.e. a non human readable value and I have no reference values for the HTC default or any other.
Care to indulge me with a quick hit of registry magic? I've tried SIPChange and I don't like it, seems to error out on boot for my TP2. Thanks.

No dice people?
I feel your pain, pal. I know exactly what you're describing since I'm a bit anal too. Assuming you read Chinese, the following post may enlighten you a bit:
http://www.mobile01.com/topicdetail.php?f=129&t=944511
The post suggested editing the following registry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload\1\
Default=e0010404 -> Traditional Chinese
Default=e0010409 -> English
I am no master in registry editing, but from what I read, it appears that there are different Keyboard Layouts. Your TP2's default layout is e0010409 English. After you install Chinese IME, it changes to e0010404 Traditional Chinese, which is why your Sogou input system is activated after a soft reset. Now if you change that registry back e0010409, it will now default back to English AND DISABLING CHINESE INPUT in the process. With that said, since this registry can be changed on the fly, I assume you can write a MortScript to change swap them whenever you need to input Chinese.
Hope this helps and let me know if you ever come across a better solution.
I would also appreciate if someone here can better explain how these keyboard related registries work. I can read manuals, just need some good pointers, thanks!
Just found a better solution. Apparently PlumSIP http://www.dayhand.com/ is a Chinese input system that is registered as an English (e0010409) keyboard layout. That is, it can switch between Chinese and English input without touching the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload\1\Default registry.
With this setup, you will have English as default input method, and can switch to Chinese when you need to.
Found an even better solution. Sogou just puts a shortcut to it's own process in your \windows\startup\ directory. If you delete that, Sogou isn't the default SIP anymore. YES!
Used this solution for HTC HD Mini, and now am satisfied with the result after deleting from the Sogou shortcut from directory. Nice help here, thanks...

Ok ive done alot of research and cant find any solution to this. Lets say me and someone else want to text in russian which has alot of different symbols and characters. We both install the same Russian keyboard however it wont send the sentences we make.
any ideas ?
i dont want to make both of our phones fully russian , just the optional keyboard
I have a problem, I'm Portuguese, so you write sms with catacteres 'ã' 'ê' 'ç' 'á' among others. Right now I'm using the ROM of Endymion, I've come to use the ROM and Runnymede had the same problem of special characters. When you send sms to other mobile phones with special characters, shows with other characters. If I change to the language to English (Portugal), it sends correctly, but if you switch back to Portuguese (Portugal) turn to be the problem.
I think that is the coding for sending sms. Someone can help me?
I've come to talk with lowveld, but he still could not see the problem...
i'm not sure if it would fix the problem, but have you tried downloading a different keyboard? Something like swype?
the problem is not on the keyboard, but the coding for sending sms.
have already installed some keyboards, and continues with the same problem. I can only post with special characters if I change the ROM language to English (Portugal).
Also installed morelacale2 to change to the Portuguese language and continue with the same problem.
So the encoding of sms that is defined in the ROM language to English (Portugal) is not defined in Portuguese (Portugal)
if I knew how be programmed the ROM, maybe I could find the settings to English.
that's why I'm asking for help.
I'm also Portuguese and also suffering from the same problem. My phone is completely stock with HTC updates, it has android 2.3.5 and sense 3.0 and I use the last version of Swype. I agree with you and think that the problem is not the keyboard but something else.
greetings

I have the same problem too. I tried to change keyboard but steel with problems.
If someone could help, that'll be nice.
I had a similar problem when typing Greek characters, the sms were sent ok but instead of sending 160 characters per SMS, it would send only 70 per SMS.
This would mean that I was sending 2-3 SMS in order to send 160 characters message.
I solved it by installing Handcent SMS client from the Market.
I don't know if it would help you but you can always give it a try.
Hi everyone,
Im currently on TBD v3.1 Rom, and have the exact same problem, and really only happening when sending sms, it looks fine on my htc HD2, but the receiver instead of "~" gets a "?".
Email is working fine, facebook, everything except sms.
So far no one knows whats wrong or how to solve it =/
(my best friend, Google, cant also tell me how to solve this)
