[Q] Samsung Keyboard: Language issue - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Using a roted N910C with CXXU1ANK5 firmware. I am using the samsung stock keyboard. My issue: I am writing in several languages which is why in added "input languages" in the samsung setting menu. Now I have English (US), German and French installed. However, whenever I get back into the "select languages" menu, the added languages need "update". Then I select "update" and the update is downloaded with a clearly visible progress bar. Back to settings, back to "select languages" and bam: The "update" button is back. That alone would just annoy me. But worse: Whenever I am entering text with the stylus, the "to be updated" languages are no longer available.
Tried clearing chache and re-flashing the ROM. No success.
Searched quite a bit but could not find anyone with that problem. Am I the only one? Anyone has a fix for that? Thanx for help.

That does sound like a rare issue, but I think this issue can be easily fixed. I will get in touch with Samsung Executive Developer Support and get back to you. In the meanwhile, go to the application manager in settings, swipe to ALL and clear data on Samsung Keyboard.

Value added installer help

Hey,
I've installed this value added installer and it changed my whole phone to arabic. How do I get it back to english?
well the only way to solve the problem is to install the whole rom.. i.e. rom in english.. if thats difficult you can live with two lnguages.. in programs go to multilingual support.. unclick disable multilingual support then set ur language to English with arabic support

Don't panic mate. You can still return some english parts of it but not all. Try this first:
1.) Go to the Settings tab (that's the last tab in the slider, far right after the footprints tab)
2.) Count 10 from the very top of the settings and click it.
3.) From there Choose the 1st menu and try to choose english from the 1st drop downlist.
If this doesn't help just try to download this stock rom:
http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Leo...Radio_Signed_15.30.50.07U_2.06.51.07_Ship.exe
or if that is not the stock rom that you are using try to search here:
http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Leo/
That happened to me before, i have managed to put back some english parts but still it's irritating if you cant understand something that you are seeing on your phone. I have managed to restore my stock rom back then.
Hope this helps mate!
Goodluck. Let me know what happens. You can just reply to this thread or pm me, i'll be glad to help you.
i have downloaded the first link but it doesnt run on my htc hd2. the other link is an index... what am supposed to search for in that list?
well I've installed the value added installer and it did turn my phone to arabic,
disabling Arabic suuport means you're back to zero. however, you just need to change a few parts and all of the English interface will be back:
enable English with Arabic support from the multilingual support option, you'll find it in Misc in the settings tab, or in system in the winmo settings page (that's whn you click menu>all settings when you're in the settings tab).
now soft reset.
go to the settings tab again and choose locale and text > Regional. Personally I set it to UK because it's quite closer to what I use but if you want more advanced options, go again to winmo settings choose system and then regional, you'll be able ro maually adjust each value, even choose how the date will appear: Arabic, English names in Arabic, or plain English.
soft reset and you're good to go
hope that helps
note that the value added installer will be automatically installed whenever you hard reset, which means you'll have to do these all over again, a better idea is to install some of these backup programs which will restore the mobile to it's state at the time of the backup.

More info on my blog:

I tested it on my HTC Wildfire. If someone test, please write if it works.
Isn't this warez?
EDIT: Tested, works for a few seconds, then FCes. Would be great if it worked, as I don't think the official Swype supports QVGA. What is LS fix?
Tattoo has a QVGA resolution, I tested it on Wildfire in the official version does not work landscape mode.
LS = Landscape
If on (tattoo) the official version works in landscape mode please delete the topic.
Well, your version doesn't appear to work at all...
Where can I get the original version to test? From market?
sadly i tried it and it force closes

I'm trying this right now. I also tried the version without LS fix (with PT fix) and that FC as well, so the problem isn't in the LS fix.
EDIT: No luck Would be great if someone got this going...!

[How to] Fix Corrupt Swype

Hello,
If you are having problems with your Swype where it shows a message every time you change language about database: "There was a problem opening the Swype database. It may be corrupt or in the wrong format".
Don't panic, don't go rushing and reinstaling/flashing firmwares, this has a very simple solution which by the way I couldn't find in the forums so I'm posting it here.
All you have to do is this:
MENU -> Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications
Here you open the context menu and make sure the Filter options is set to show ALL applications.
Search for Swype, select it, and click on the Clear Data button.
That's all, next time you open a input text screen, you might get an error and Swype will Force Close... just open again the input text screen and All languages will be working fine again.
Note: YOU WILL LOOSE ALL YOUR CUSTOM WORDS ADDED TO EVERY SWYPE DICTIONARY (be warned). But at least you'll be able to use Swype again

Changing default Android keyboard

Hello.
I have installed stock Gingerbread by tytung and didn't like the new keyboard. Desipe many ppl report it's better I find 2.2 stock keyboard more comfortable for me as it has bigger buttons(russian has more letters and they are easier to hit then).
I actually found an .apk but I didn't find the way I can install it. I tried using EasyInstall that is able to install apks from SD card but it didn't worked.
Help please+)
Bump.
No one knows how to replace the keyboard?
What do u mean with "didn't work". Do u get an error message or just nothing changed with the keyboard?
If just nothing changed do the following:
1.Go to the main android settings and there you should have a menu called "language & input" (just a guess cause I have only a german menu). There you have to select the new keyboard.
2. Then just open the message app and tap AND HOLD in the field where you would write the message. A popup will appear. Click on it and change the input method.
Then you should be ready to go.

I meant it's not installed. I choose it to install but at the end I get "Application wasn't installed". That's it.
Just to clarify I want to change Gingerbread stock keyboard with Froyo stock keyboard as I like its layout.
Putting .apk with Froyo keyboard in /system/app didn't work at all - Android OS simply doesn't recognize it. I guess because of exect the same system name - Android keyboard.
