Question Dvorak Gboard for my Galaxy watch 4 - Samsung Galaxy Watch 4

Does anyone know if it's possible to have a Dvorak layout on the Gboard that I have on my watch 4?
I know, I'm a wierdo using a Dvorak keyboard, on my phone it's great, but my head can't deal with switching to Qwerty when I want to send a message from my watch
Many thanks for any thoughts/advice

[Q] Different keyboard?

hey guys,
i'm new to the TPT and i do like it a lot so far. root went well and bloatware is down. since there are so many apps that are device specific, i was curious if there are any different soft keyboard apps that you could recommend. on the SGS2 i am using swype, so when i switch devices, i'm somehow missing that a little.
possible to install other keys and if so, anything to recommend? maybe even something for the stylus? (i figure that either my handwriting sucks, or the detection for regular writing just sucks)
sorry for beginners questions, but i couldn't find anything about it yet ..
I tried several and settled on SwiftKey Tablet X. Works best for me.
I use Thumb Keyboard. It has a split design and has numbers and arrows. It works good with this wide fellow.
I use it on my phone, but was disappointed that it didn't translate well to tablet, for me.
I use Swype and like it a lot
I use FlexT9, it does swype as well as dictation and some other nifty stuff.
Swift Key tablet version is my favorite, not to much of a fan of Swype but thats just my personal preference. its either stock android or swift key
If you like the full keyboard like I do, i recommend the Hacker's Keyboard. Not exactly sure why its called that but it uses a full QWERTY keyboard with arrow keys. Another is the Logitech Keyboard (still in beta but I havent had any issues) that has a full QWERTY that also you can swipe across the keyboard to show another keyboard that doubles as a technical keyboard or calculator.
If you like lots of buttons, is more open to customizing (button row/column height/width adjustments), either one would work great.

I prefer Thumb Keyboard too. I like that you can choose different themes for it. And for the most part, the themes they offer match a lot of flashable themes/roms for different devices.

+1 for Hacker's Keyboard. I usually use my tablet in the folio case so I have a nice hardware keyboard. However there have been plenty of times where I have had it out of the folio and been editing a document or posting on a forum and the hackers keyboard has come in extremely handy. It would be something I was willing to spend money on, but since it is free, it's an even better deal.

Hackers Keyboard ist the best, it is for free you can use 5 row style (numbers and letters) and you can download different languages for auto correctur.
In portrait mode I usually use Swype, which is great even at 10inch!
In landscape mode and for things like SSH/Terminal, I use Hacker's Keyboard, which feels almost like the real thing
Dueces beat me to it. HACKERS KEYBOARD for the closest simulation of a desktop keyboard (I've) found so far. Not only are the keys big and bold, perhaps more importantly they are scalable (as is the entire keyboard).

SwiftKey Tablet X for me as I use SwiftKey 3 on my SGS3 and I just can't go back to anything else anymore...I might have to give this hacker's keyboard a crack though, thanks for the suggestion.
For those who like Swype, I strongly recommend the TouchPal keyboard. Its implementation of the swype input method is terrific.

I was just looking for a way to get the stock swype like keyboard back after installing cm 10.
Touchpal is even better!

[Q] Dock Keyboard with different languages

Hi community
I'm actually German and currently here in the U.S.
I really can't wait to buy the Infinity here ASAP, but I still have some questions left...
Most of you guys know, that the German QWERTZ keyboard (and special letters ö,ä,ü etc.) differs from other QWERTY keyboards, so the whole layout is different.
Now my question is:
- can you select a dock language/layout anywhere? so you can use different keyboard layouts?
This way, I could buy an U.S. dock and just switch to another language and use "German" letters, although it's written otherwise on the keyboard
OR: (preferred way)
- is it possible to use a German dock keyboard with the U.S. version of the Infinity (including special letters like ö,ä,ü?? )
Maybe some of you guys, who already have a dock could try this...
If you could switch from a German layout (people from switzerland, who already have the infinity) to a U.S. layout, I assume, you could also do it vice versa.
Thank you in advance!
This would, I will imagine, also be affected by the keyboard app, like Swiftkey, in which you can select multiple languages and layouts.

I know with absolute certainty that SwiftKey 3 has an extra setting for "external keyboard layout" which allows you to define which layout the keydock has - independently from the on-screen-keyboard. Plus i can really recommend SwiftKey.
I don't know about the second option of yours, but that's what i will try (the other way round, living in Germany and disliking QWERTZ).
Does Swiftkey actually support external keyboards? Wow, you learn something in here every day.
I've used it for a long period on my SGS2 (soft keyboard, obviously), but autocorrection while using the dock keyboard would be absolutely fantastic!
you may want to look at their tablet version.

Multiling Keyboard with the Dock

Hello,
I am planning to buy an Asus Transformer Infinity, and as an Armenian language user, I simply do not imagine my life without Multiling Keyboard . But I'm not sure whether this keyboard will work with the dock or not. Will I have the same typing experience with the physical keyboard of the Asus Transformer as I have on-screen (layout etc.)? Has anyone tested it (not exactly the Armenian layout, but just the app with the dock)?
Most importantly, I want to make sure that I will be able to switch between English and a second (Armenian) with the keys combination, as in the case of the default Asus keyboard. Even if this is not a supported feature by default, maybe there are some solutions/fixes for this? I'm ready to root my device or tweak some system files and settings, if it will help.
The question is, there is no other app that supports Armenian input language even half as well as Miltiling Keyboard, that's why I would like to ask the Multiling users here to share your experience with me.
Thank you in advance.
I have been using multiling with the dock without major issue, but with English UK. The only problem I find is that the " ? ! etc characters will not be in the same place. However, you may be able to learn the new positions easily? I'm sorry that I'm not familiar with Armenian to know if there are other critical special characters you will need.
I keep meaning to investigate if it's possible to remap the characters on multiling. I believe it is a better soft keyboard than the Asus one, or the default android 4.1 keyboard which is also installed by default. I'm looking forward to trying the android 4.2 default keyboard.
Hope that helps.

Thanks for the reply, Gudders . Have you tried to switch languages while you use Multiling with the dock, or you use only Engilsh UK? If it is not too difficult, can you please check the Armenian language in the Multiling settings in order to have two selected languages, and try to switch them with the dock (keys combinations, spacebar...), or at last just try to type something Armenian with the dock?
Thanks!
I have been trying to figure out the same but for Spanish. So far I haven't been able to get special characters to work from the dock keyboard. I haven't been able to get things like alt-134 to work for writing a ñ. I waited for 3 months for Asus to release a latin keyboard and they keep saying it is coming soon but it still is not available. I finally just bought an English version but so far haven't been able to figure this stuff out.

I am happy to try for you. I can download and install Armenian. You can switch using shift and spacebar in search, chrome, kingsoft office, gmail and some others. I tried to get a screenshot, but I can't seem to upload it to XDA (browser issue I think). The only problem I had was with the stock browser. I couldn't get it to switch, or type Armenian characters. It may just need a restart. It does type the charactes and switch using the search bar in the stock browser, but on google page or XDA reply box it wouldn't.
Hope that helps.

Gear S3 and swype

Is any one aware is any qwerty Swype keyboard for the Gear S3? I'm using a qwerty keyboard today with no auto correct or auto punctuation, which is very primitive. The size of the qwerty keyboard on the gear S3 is plenty big enough to accurately Swype.
Apparently, there is no such keyboard. I have installed Agile Keyboard, which is a considerable improvement over the preinstalled Samsung keyboard. But not as good as Swype. Hopefully, some developer comes up with a transfer on Tizen.

Are there even ANY good keyboard besides GBoard and SwiftKey?

So I HATE GBoard with a passion. It does the job if you only write in English but if you also write in other languages it is a complete nightmare that makes zero sense and I feel like no localization team tested Gboard at all because the stuff it writes makes no sense and breaks simple language rules that are VERY VERY easy to program. In short: Gboard sucks big time.
Now if you ask on the net what keyboards are good you only get TWO answers: GBoard and SwiftKey. I feel like there aren't even any other keyboards around anymore. To put it short: I am also NOT happy with SwiftKey for several reasons (I can not find a cogwheel to change any options on the keyboard itself like I can on Gboard. There is also NO way to enable a keyboard that also has ö,ä,ü keys, a feature Gboard and other keyboards also do...that's just a few of those things I hate about Swift key).
So are there ANY other keyboards that are actually good for typing because all I have found so far is stuff like "EMOJI KEYBOARD!!! SUPER COOL NICE SKINS!!!111" I have been googling this for 3 years now, reading threads, asking at places but I haven't found ANY other keyboard to this very day.
I am using a Xioami Mi A1, I know I can not install a Samsung keyboard on it because of a different frame work but maybe SOME third party keyboard (HTC or whatever) got ported or something for this device or ported for any Android device? Thanks a lot in advance.
Typing on this phone makes me so angry that I am considering to even buy an iPhone (which are overpriced and don't let you navigate and create folders...why does everything have to be sh't?!)
Edit: also what nobody seems to understand (at least when I read keyboard guides) it is ALL about the text prediction and how a keyboard understand a language but everyone just talks about how you can change the colour of a keyboard or add a number row...
Example: Gboard turns EVERY verb into a noun (Capital letter) after a Personal Pronoun which makes no sense. There will NEVER be a noun after a Personal Pronoun, it will be a verb which will be written with a small letter but I always have to correct this because the retards at google can not even code such a simple thing.
given the amount of amazing replies I got here I would guess the answer is: NO, there are only 2 keyboards out there for android.
Amazing!

Buy a Samsung phone if keyboard is everything in your life. Samsung has its own keyboard app for its devices and works nice and smooth.

It's the only keyboard I like. Have a S4+ and the Note 10+, the keyboards are near identical and easy to use with a fair number of options.
Samsung also is the most customizable stock Android and the includes the keyboard colors.
