olsmaks,
When working with dictionaries you need to eliminate, do not delete, just move the old dictionary to /sdcard/Download/ or whatever your preference. The problem that I see with this issue is that Amazon calls to the current APK when you need a definition. I have an idea that may work. Once you move the old Oxford Dictionary to /sdcard/Download take note of the name of the old APK, then move your new dictionary to /system/app/ be sure to change the permissions to: User: Read Write Group: Read and Others: Read, then rename the new dictionary to match the old dictionary's name, then when Amazon calls to the Oxford Dictionary, it will be the new dictionary. Does this make sense?

Anyone fancy translating it?
Or even, anyone fancy copying the text on the left over to the right hand side?
Yeah i noticed this file when making the OEM...
if rename the text.tw to text.en some word appear in english on the programm
I think you'll still need to translate the file above... I'll fire up the emulator and see.
There's a file called "languages.txt" whic judging by the contents will list what the extensions to the files (as in text.TW") are.
Code:
tw=繁體中文
cn=简体中文
en=English
One problem is that all the images have the text in chinese/whatever language it is...
here goes....

Removing words from t9 dictionary?

Morning all,
Just wonder if you can help me with a quick question?
I seem to have inadvertently added odd words to my T9 dictionary.
Seems to be when I use a question mark.
Whenever I type ‘you’ now it always suggests ‘you?you’ or another example is ‘tonight’ which suggests ‘tonight?tonight’
I didn’t realise I had added these (bug??) but will be more careful in future
I wonder if anyone can suggest a way to delete words I’ve added to the dictionary?
I’m fed up of these words always taking priority over the actual word I need.
Any help appreciated
Justin
There is a way to delete ALL of them:
Settings->Personal->Input->Word Completion->Erase
(Free translation from a dutch version)
do people use the T9 with the qwerty keyboard, I personally don't see the point ???

The words still exist in auto complete after this procedure
If you look in the Windows directory there's a program called eT9MyWords.exe which let's you delete custom words. Just create a shortcut to it in your Programs. Sorted.
ooh Top Marks!
Cheers

[RESOLVED] No other beta-testers needed to verify spellchecking in Spanish

Hello,
I am a hobby-developer of a spellchecking-engine, in the form of a library, which other developers may add to their applications for Windows Mobile. Please see the thread in my signature for further information.
However, this time I need some help from you end-users to verify the correctness of the suggestions (replacements for misspelled words) produced by my spelling-engine. This is important so I know that the replacements are accurate and reasonable and that the word list (dictionary) I am using is good.
I need to verify Spanish, French and German so if (any) above language(s) is (are) your mother-tongue(s) or if you know them very well, please send me a PM with your e-mail (and indicating which language you would like to help me with) and I will send you a test application. For the time being, this test-application is a normal desktop Windows application (a text editor in which you can load any text file and perform spellchecking and which is good enough for the purpose of verifying the results of the spelling-engine).
Edit: No further beta-testers needed. I might need others later on when verifying other languages
In the future, I will add other languages as well. If you want some languages added and you can provide me a word list (or dictionary) of said language, please let me know.
Many thanks in advance for your help.
if/when you'll need Italian, gimme a shot
Grazie.
I had actually planned to include Italian with the current version of my spellchecker but unfortunately the only word list (dictionary) I found have all words without accents.
For instance:
arriverà - in the dictionary it is: arrivera
più - in the dictionary it is: piu
ecc.
My idea for Italian was to find maybe 10 users (or even more) who could use the spellchecker from MS Word or OpenOffice to correct the words in my current word list without accents. At the end, we would have a corrected word list which would be good. My idea was to send to each person helping with Italian, only a part from the dictionary. Let's say: Person 1 gets all words from A to C, Person 2 gets all words from D - F and so on. If you know some other Italian people who would like to help me with this, please let me know. The more we are, the faster the dictionary will be ready. What do you think?

If you have taken it from scrobble, yes, i did compile it this way on purpose (scrobble hasn't accents)

I think spellchechers are not so smart: you'll come out having a lot of strange words
But if you know how to convert .dic/.aff from OpenOffice dicts, here (attached) is the italian OpenOffice dictionary.
Otherwise, i'll manually convert it (as i already did for Scrobble), but we'll lose all the rules (verbs will be only in infinitive form, for example, as they are in usual dictionaries)
Ciao,
No, I didn't use the one from Scrobble. The dictionary I am using was compiled by Luigi M Bianchi and you can download a copy of the dictionary here (http://www.winedt.org/Dict/). It's very complete and lists more than 277,000 words!
However, I had a look at the dictionary you supplied to Scrobble and I think I'd like to use that one instead since it is much smaller (and more suited for Windows Mobile since less memory is required to load it). It has most verb forms present (arriva, arrivi, arriviamo ecc.). However the problem is that it is still without accents But the time needed to correct it should take less.
My spellchecking-engine does not use the Affix-system used by OpenOffice (which is using Hunspell) or likes such ASpell and ISpell. This system is far too memory-hungry (in my opinion) for Windows Mobile although I considered it. For more information what my spellchecking-engine is using, please see the link in my signature.
I tried once to expand an .aff-dictionary (with its corresponding affix-file) but I couldn't get it right. In any case, I think the end-result would be a huge dictionary.
If you still have the Scrobble-dictionary with all accents available, I'd love to use it. Otherwise, I believe that the Scrobble-dictionary would be the right candidate for creating a new dictionary WITH accents using the method mentioned in my previous post.

I should have it at home, tonight i'll check. If not, i'll convert it again and then will attach here
Here it is
What regards Spanish, German and French, I don't need any other beta-testers.
As to other languages, I might come with a new request later on.
Thank you.
Let me check this one and then I will get back to you.

Next word prediction

HI All I am a noob to the Arc, I literally just took it out of the box and started using it. I find it too be AMAZING. What a phone it is! However, I have one question when using the New word prediction thing, if you cannot find the word in the list how can you opt to spell it in and add to the dictionary , I am googling it now trying to find it but having trouble.
Thanks so much all and Hi I'm Amanda from Australia

You need to add them to the user dictionary. Go to settings>language and keyboard> user dictionary and add the words.
From my experience, words that aren't in the dictionary already pop up as suggestions the next time i try to type them. My word suggestion setting is "sloppy typing without auto correction". You can find it under language and keyboard> default input settings > quick text settings > word suggestions.
hope it helps
The easiest way is to disable all this
If I understood you correctly then,
Just type what you want to and press space, if your word is changed to something unwanted just press backspace... you will see your word....
Thats it... Your phone learns new words... so next time you type the same thing you will see your word highlighted in the suggestions...
Hope I could help...!!1

Give Swiftkey Beta X from the Market a try...its free for now and is really impressive. It will automagically learn your typing habbits. Ive been using it for a week and cant imagine using another keyboard.

[Q] Add LTR support and fonts, possible?

Hey
I was reading on nookdevs.com and some posts on XDA about RTL support and supporting more languages (for apps like opera mobile and for books), specifically Hebrew. At this point when I browse to any Hebrew web site I can see only squares.
Is it possible? If it is possible, how can I do it?
/system/fonts/DroidSansFallback.ttf is the font of choice when all else fails.
Apparently it has Chinese but no Hebrew. (I'd never though to look.)
The DejaVu fonts have Hebrew, find them here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/dejavu/files/
Copy whichever you want over to /system/fonts/DroidSansFallback.ttf
You will lose Chinese when you do that.

So all I need to do is to rename the dejavu font and copy it over to the nook?
What about the RTL support? Do you have idea how do I make ir work?
I know that some guys here have Arabic installed, it's also RTL. But I don't know how they did it
edit:
Installed the fonts and it works great! Thank you.
All that is left is to find a Hebrew keyboard and RTL support.
I don't know anything about RTL but HTML with dir="rtl" gets reversed in Opera Mobile.
Neither have I looked into soft IMEs for other charsets.
However, if you want to use an external USB keyboard it's trivial to put the Unicode into /system/usr/keychars/qwerty.kcm.bin

I was referring to this post.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22709152&postcount=26
It works well enough for Arabic and I find no reason why it won't work for Hebrew.
Great, it worked!
At first I thought that you where talking about the app from your first post.
