I am baffled that Android does not incorporate a real-time spell checker for all input text fields as various other mobile OS's do.
I ran into this thread on Google for those that of us that are interested in seeing this implemented in the future...

There are a few morse keyboards out there but nothing I can find for Windows mobile.
I’m hoping that someone special can provide some input into developing a dit dah SIP for WM. I’m also hoping that there are enough people out there who would be willing to donate to this project / developer. I certainly would.
There are some existing apps for other platforms:
iditdahtext for the iphone

I believe this uses multitouch technology; not something that would be available/required on WM. I believe the developer has no plans to port this to WM
I have also found a reference to an Android app

The closest thing I’ve found for WM is MorseSMSer. This is not a SIP but simply an SMS client.

I believe the development of this app has ceased.
Also just found for WM

Please don’t reply with question like “why would you want that?” People want things for different reasons – be cool and accept it

WM Morse keyboard
Reserved for me!
I had a app that converted any text to morse i will look to see if I still have that app later but your idear sounds great
Dude that keyboard looks awesome. I hope you will find the devs.
anywhere else
Anybody know anywhere else I can make this request?
well... do you want a real SIP or just an application can be ok for you ?
by the way, what do you intend to do with your text, just sending SMS, MMS,... ?
morse kb vs sms
Hi Corwin9s
I was really looking for a real SIP so that it can be used in all applications (SMS, Word etc) but I guess I would mainly use it for SMS
MorseSMSer does work but it crashes if the focus isn't in the right place (e.g. after deleting a letter). I contacted the developer who advised that development had ceased. I offered to buy the source but I didn't hear from him again.
I've had a play with the android Morse keyboard on an emulator and I think it's brilliant. Although it does imply that “word suggestion” is available but I can't get it to work. I would really like word suggestion. This may seem silly when using Morse input but however I input the text my spelling is still awful. (This is typed out in word!)
I guess that I would at least want an SMS client that didn't crash.

Can anyone help with suggestions of where to turn to for a SIP or SMS client

WM Morse keyboard - font
While looking for a font for my favorite today clock (PocketDigitalClock),
I found "Radios in Motion" font. It comes in an easy type that contains the letter it represents.
http://www.1001fonts.com/font_details.html?font_id=1184
I have used it in Word Mobile , but be carefull where you place this file.
I keep it on the sd card\My Documents. If you place it in the device folders, you may end up with this font in things like comm manager..
I had to hard reset to correct that.
So backup before you copy this font to ppc.
Hope this helps.

Hey cac2us, not quite what I was looking for but thank you very much for taking the time.

Hey guys
Aight so the idea is to create an app that lets the user speak to someone in a different language. You make a recording and using the same function that the voice search feature has that recording gets translated to typed words on the phone. The app then uses some translating service like google translate to convert that writing to a language of your choice. That writing will then get read* by the phone and can be heard through the speakers. So essentially you can talk to someone even if you dont speak the same language.
*I know this is possible because I used to have an app that did just this: it read out loud what you wrote down
I have no experience with android development, and not very much with programming either for that matter (ive done some python stuff). However, I thought of this, which dosen't seem too hard to create, and I thought this would be a great way for me to start off and learn about app development.
Ok so because most of the features already exist it should just be a matter of patching them all together (right?). This is where I need you guys' help. Any suggestions on where I could start?
I appreciate any help, no matter how big or small!
MODERATORS: I wasn't really sure if this was the right place to post this, so feel free to move it to where ever you find suiting if this isn't right.
I would love it if someone wanted to work on this together with me, but
PLEASE DONT BE A D*CK AND JUST STEAL THIS IDEA!
Hi,
I'm relatively new to Android myself. But in my understanding, I would suggest the best method to start coding this app is, to build a Service which is intended to do the network polling, and the translation for the App in Background. So I think you need a server which tracks your Messages, and serves the data for the app. U have to look at IPC (Inter Process Communication) to communicate with you service.
If you finished all these, then you can start to build an Android Activity to communicate with your user.
Hello,
Sorry if I put this question at the wrong place :|
I am a mathematician and I am looking for an app that can read mathematical symbols on Android? I have tried QuickOffice and DocToGo and both of them failed to display those symbols I created in Office 2007/2010. Can you please suggest me which app I should use.
Thank you
What you are trying to read, are equations done in Office 2007/2010, am I right?
Yes. Do you have any tips? My equations all disappeared
Sorry, can't help you there. I haven't check docs with equations. You could try to contact Documents to Go or QuickOffice developers, to see if they plan to release an update that supports this functionality.
If you want to read documents, and not edit them, you can always make a pdf, and read it on your android device
Hello! overflowers? I'm a beginner android developer and I have developed several apps that use the "basics" of android and java (for college requirements)
Now, I need to develop a new project that consists of making a web app which stores the records of all students from my college and the students will be able to check their records and other information from the college from their android phones.
I have done a lot of stuff with Android but I haven't done anything incluiding web queries, pulling info from a website to display into the device, etc etc.
So I want some advice here and/or tutorials that focus on this.
also, I have some important questions: 1. Can I pull information from the actual website from my college? If so, do I need to recieve some sort of permissions?
2. In case of not being able to pull information from the actual website from my college (for any reason whatsoever, like them not giving me permissions to do this), I could create a website that imitates its behavior, I would appreciate some tutorial or guide which could help me to achieve this.
Your help is very appreciated.
Btw, excuse if I'm breaking a rule here but something is not making sense to me.. the forum title says Q&A but when I mark this as a question it says this is not Q&A. I am aware this might be moved somewhere else but I dont know where.

I would look into hosting an sqlite3 database on a server, and access it to retrieve the data from within your app.
But the problem is, by default you cannot access an online database on Android, so you'll need to add some kind of RESTful interface, the easiest way probably being a php script which will retrieve the data from the database and return it into a JSON object for example, that you can then pull from within your app.
You'll need to expose some kind of syntax from your php script so that your app can request the data for a specific user (ie row X / column Y).
There's probably a better approach, but this is what comes to my mind.
Hello
I have been an ios user for quite some time now and since english is not my first language the define feature really helps me when i read novels(or web articles) and i would really like to have that feature in my samsung tab s2.
Any ideas on how to go about it would be really helpful. Do i have to create a rom with the define feature in it or an application(with superuser support).
Thanks in advance.
As for what i know, i know core java and have created a basic call blocker(auto reject calls) aplication using android studio. If these things wont cut it i am willing to learn the language or w/e is needed to develop the ios define app
Well the Google translate app already has the feature you are asking for: you select a word from a text field and in the pop-up you select "share". Then share it to Google translate and it is automatically translated to your language

But you need to select the word then click share and then gotta search for Google translate outta the already available billion apps in the share dialog box
