I read that grammar check was released to all android phones for Gboard. However on my Samsung Galaxy S20, grammar check isnt an available option under settings. Does anybody else with a Non-Pixel phone have it? Sorry using text to speech while driving

I am using Dexters xt720 Froyo 1.1b but have not been able to get auto correction to work with the language I have selected (English Canada). When I mistype words it does not suggest a correction, it simply suggests the mistyped word which is not very useful.
Does anyone have word autocorrection working on their phones? its almost as though the rom does not have the associated dictionary for the available languages.
I think some dictionary is maybe missing, I tried switching from English (Canada) to English (US) and still had no suggestions/autocorrect.
The solution is to download an alternate keyboard from the market. People are suggesting better keyboard. I went with Keyboard from Gingerbread Free.

Today I installed the Google Translator 2.4 update (released yesterday 30 May) and... it's ****ing ****!!
I don't like the new UI but that's not the problem, the problem is that the definitions found for any given word searched are MUCH LESS detailed!! And the most important issue is that it seems to no longer works as a dictionary!!!!
Example: (I am Italian) if I search the English word "house" it's translated into the Italian "casa", if I set both the source and destination languages to English it used to give me a detailed definition (in English) of the word "house". No more!!!!
Unless I am doing something wrong Goggle Translator has just gone from one of the best online Translator (the one I used on both my Note and my Galaxy Tab 10.1) to an almost useless piece of crap!!
Waiting for what happens next, I have restored my backed up old version of Google Translator...
Any thoughts anyone?
I cant see any difference...everything is same like before update,exp.UI. Or I don't know what do you mean...
See scrn.
Yeah, except for the holo theme, I can't feel any difference either. Or maybe I just don't use it as a dictionary.
The old version has a setting (which translated from the Italian sounds like "Complete Dictionary") which was not checked, by default. You both probably hadn't that checked (and the new version has not this setting anymore) and I think this is why you are not seeing any differences.
Look what comes up translating from English to English the word "house". Try it on the new version, all you will get is... "house".
I don't know if this is an original question, I just joined the site, and reading through this forum convinced me that this is the tablet I am looking for.
I just began studying Japanese this quarter, and I would love to be able to augment my studying with the Galaxy Note 10.1.
Obviously this device does not only ship to the US, so I am sure it recognize other language input. Practicing writing sentences will of course not be a problem. What I want to know is if the device will recognize the kana and print it to the screen. I feel that it can be a great practice tool for perfecting my writing if the software can identify it.
Is it as simple as changing the keyboard language? Will I need to root my device?
I'm studying Japanese as well, but I don't see the option to input kana. The only East Asian input languages I could download for the keyboard was Korean and Chinese. There's no download for Japanese language. It's so disappointing! I have the US Wi-Fi version of the Note 10.1 (N8013), though. The international version might have Japanese input but I don't know for sure.
You could always try using a 3rd party keyboard from the Play Store, however, they may not have handwriting recognition. So I'd parse through the app store before you go out and buy one.
If you're using a language from the default list in the settings menu (there's not too many in the list), there is no need to root. All you have to do is download the font from the Settings menu.
I hope I didn't confuse you or anything...
EDIT:
I did a quick Google search and someone had recommended downloading MultiLing Keyboard + the Japanese plug-in + the HanWriting system to get Japanese handwriting input OR you can purchase an app called 7notes with mazec (Japanese). MultiLing is free and 7notes costs $10.47 (there is a trial version but that's Japanese only). I would post links but I can't since I'm a newbie. D:
I'm gonna test out the MultiLing one first, then the 7notes trial since the latter is quite expensive.
Yes, you can write and read japanese in almost any app, even you can set japanese as the main language if you want. (all the menus and options will appear in japanese).
The default keyboard (samsung keyboard) doesn't have japanese as writing language, but no problem, just use any third party keyboard with japanese support, I use (and recommend) Multiling Keyboard (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.klye.ime.latin), it has plugins for japanese and handwriting (works very well with the spen)
And there are good learning apps for writing in japanese, like Hiragana Learning Experiment (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.legendarya.helloandroid) that can help you to improve your writing skills.
No root is required at all.
Thank you for the replies. This is perfect.
I use 7 notes with mazec (Japanese) - it is some notes application that I don't use, but it also installs a japanese keyboard with handwriting recognition for kana and kanji (and also romanji and numbers). Looks like samsung handwriting keyboard and works very well. Well worth its price (and there is free version to try):
7notes with mazec in play store
Is there any "keyboard" that will recognize input of handwritten kanji directly?
Japanese keyboards that I found all depend on kana input.

yep, have you tried Multiling Keyboard that I mentioned above?
No, but I did download the trial version of 7Notes with mazec and that seems ok for input of words and phrases but it still has ways to go before it handles sentences our word combinations. Also perhaps a little on the expensive side. I will use this for a week to see how I get along with it and the I'll try the Multiling keyboard, it just sounds like it requires downloading a lot of language specific files.
The Samsung keyboard on their Note series has good handwriting recognition and I noticed I could download Japanese as one of the supported languages. I did just that but I couldn't get it to recognize any kind of Japanese input.

Hi guys.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 Neo GT-I9300I.
Just today, I reset my phone to its factory settings. Before I did so, I had 'Urdu' language for SMS along with default language which is English (US). Now, I can't find Urdu. It is not present in the downloadable options.
Moreover, it shows the 'Downloaded Languages' only, and not the 'Available Languages'.
P.S. There are other messaging softwares where I can get Urdu Keyboards like SwiftKey and GOkeyboard, but I would like to use Urdu in the defualt messaging app only, and without rooting.
Please help. Responses would be highly appreciated. I've uploaded a screenshot too.
Just got my Frontier a couple of days ago and was very disapointed to again see interesting features removed by Samsung for my country (France). They are too often doing that (e.g. yahoo finance side apps on S7, etc...)
This time, handwriting was not on my gear S3. Here is how to activate it if not available:
Go to settings
Then go to keyboard/input mode
Replace the input language with 'English US'
Verify that this time, handwriting is working when entering a message
Go back to keyboard input language and add your home language (do not remove english US)
Verify that handwriting still works.
Note that just adding English US did not work for me. I had to remove my home one and choose English US first.
Hope this helps
Yes, and you need to do this even if your default language is currently English UK! This video explains the required settings change in detail:

Seems bazaar that the handriting oprion only works when set as English US
