Hi guys,
I got this problem, I use another keyboard language. In another apps, it remembers what I set and turn the keyboard into my language automatically but in Chrome it doesnt. Did I miss any setting method or it's a Chrome default setting?. It feels a little bit annoy when I open Chrome and search for information with keyboard in English, not in my language. I use English is my main device language.
Can anyone help me? Thks

Hi everyone,
I am sorry but I am not a dev at all, but I was wondering if anyone can dev a keyboard layout switch...
I have checked many post and if I am not getting it wrong, you have to go to "setting>local ..." to change the keyboard layout and T9 dictionnaries.
My point is, as a french, english, chinese keyboard users, I have to frequently change my keybaord layout. So I was wondering if anyone can compilate a mix of the following applications (can be founded on market) :
-apowersms (if you go to setting, there is a language filter, which is very interesting because you can choose which language keyboard you need) (and the keyboard layout isn't so bad looking)
- softkeyboard (for the keyboard button, when you press it long, you can directly change to the language you want)
I have also haykuro Hero Rom, as you can see in the following video, there's tool and keyboard button, maybe we can use this as a base....

I would be happy to help in developing this, but i don't know how
no one interested by this?
I always configure the UI of my mobile phones with english. But I write sms/emails in French, German, English & Spanish. Android does not seem to offer the possibility to quickly change the input language of the keyboard. It looks like UI language both determines keyboard layout and input language, which is EXTREMELY inconvenient for someone using several languages on a daily basis.
Does it exist a workaround, an external app or a feature I oversaw to solve this major drawback? Keyboard layout and input language should be configurable both independently from UI language.
Thanks for the help

I have the same question, for somebody that uses different languages on a daily basis it really is extremely inconvenient...
Any solution for this or would this be worth developing $$$
I have this problem as well.. I want to be able to switch between English and Dutch input.
My old sony ericsson's (W910, W580, W300) could do this by long pressing * or #, don't remember which key
I've got the same issue. So still nothing on this? I've been looking everywhere, haven't found a solution besides: switch language UI.
So Im not the only one? And I thought I was special. Oh well, Im having the same issue too and its a real pain in the arss.
Moving to General because:
OP ended the original post with a question.
Has nothing to do with the development of ROMs.
I had the same problem and found a keyboard replacement on the market: AnySoftKeyboard. That keyboard comes with different downloadable dictionaries and you can change layout and dictionary on the fly.
The layout is not always well done (e.g. delete key to small for the german layout) but works well enough for me.
Search for a modified HTC_IME which I found here on XDA, it suits this need perfectly. You can choose the subset of the supported languages you want to use, and cycle betweenthem with a gesture (I chose swipe up, but it's configurable).

Hey guys, I'm news to android phones, i'm used to Symbian (Nokia).
Anyways, here is my situation
My phone's menu is in english, but sometimes, i wanna write a sms or mms, or enter a friend's name in the contact list, I would like to write in chinese, but so far, I havent seen any options to switch they keyboard to chinese. Unless, i have to change to my phone to chinese, then i can only write in chinese, no english.
So my question is : Is there a way so we can switch alternatively between keyboad language without chaning the whole system?
Thanks
long press in the input field, then you get an option to change input method (keyboard)
hth
awesome!!! thanks!

if i hold my google voice button on my keyboard a settings thingy pops up if i go to that i can manage all kind of text message settings like auto correct and input language
if you don't have google voice installed you might just want to hold all your keyboard key one by one and see if there a settings thingy show up
How can i change my keyboard language from english to greek . I go to menu , settings , language and keyboard , touch input , settings and the default language is only english and nothing else .I want to put there the greek language so i could write with greek with my hardware keyboard . Thank you
I want to know too
I want Thai landuage on Europe Fw.
Up.
I'm also interesting in changing my languages. For this purpose, I tryied to change it by using morelocales. The result is that now, I'm well localised on websites (i.e, youtube from the good country). But I don't have the good language predictive feature.
In the keyboard parameter, I have configured a foreign language but I don't see any difference.
How can I solve this?
Thanks for your help.
I forget. I tried by using swype. It works with the virtual keyboard but I lost the predictive feature with the physical keyboard.
bump.
i would also like to be able to use Chinese pinyin on the hardware keyboard.
Using google pinyin works, but i have to change the input everytime because the english sucks.
