[Q] Changing prediction lang for hardware keyboard - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
I'm wondering if there's a way to change the prediction language for the hardware keyboard? I have my phone configured with English and French as the 2nd language, and it works great when using the touch keyboard since I can change language at the touch of a button.
But when I use the hardware keyboard, prediction is always in English. Is there a way to switch dictionary language for the hardware keyboard?
Thanks!

I have the same problem. Wonder if this is a bug...

Check out the fix by REDGLASSES in the DEVELOPMENT forum titled [FIX] STOCK KEYPAD UPDATE FOR CYANOGEN, or something like that. I'm sure French is in there,... give it a try.

Mine it's not a keyboard mapping problem but rather a problem with the prediction language.

I have the same problem :
I wanna have a French prediction, but I have just the English one...Unfortunately, my phone is in English/Italian...
Is there any solution now ?

ROM question: how to add a language? (please help)

I've got my HTC Touch pro2 early, by not waiting for Norwegian release date (4 july).
The touchflo is english, and I like it that way.
The keyboard layout does not include norwegain "æøå" letters.
The spellcheck/XT9 lists I already have are: English, French, German, Italian and Spanish.
I would like to have "Norwegian"
where are the settings/files i need to add, in order to fix this ?

Might be worth having a look in the blackstone forum for their language packs and just try it on the TouchPro2, should work in theory.
I tried to change my hw keyboard layout and I have been able to have "è" and "ù", no way to have "ì", "ò", "à": keys simply do not work at all...
As far as software keyboard is concerned, I believe that you should change sip.
nicelad_uk : thanks - I assume you mean this post ?

I installed Norwegian language, and it works becuase it's auto-selected, but does not show in the language selection list so after choosing English, I must reinstall it if I want it back.
It's a spellcheck and XT9 list, it does not influence the soft-keyboard layout, or the kayboards special characters list.

[Q] Gingerbread Keyboard dictionaries not working

Hello.
Been using GingerVillain for quite some time now. Since the begining that i struggle to get sms/emails out without any gramatical errors since the keyboard dictionary doesnt work.
I go to language and keyboard settings-> Android keyboard-> input languages and have ****loads of dictionaries there to choose from.
Oddly enough, the only one that works is English.
Have searched this forum for an answer and didnt found one.
Any clues in how to get a Portuguese keyboard dictionary for example?!?
Thanks in advance for your help.

[Q] Hardware keyboard settings

How do I change this from English? It's the default language and there are no other options to choose. I want to use Simplified Chinese with Pinyin input on the keyboard. The soft keyboard works fine, only the hardware keyboard has this problem.
I'd like to know it too. I'm using a DZ with stock rom and spanish hw keyboard, but I have only bthe english layout...
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
Well, this worked fine in my Windows Mobile phone. I could switch back and forth from English to Chinese on both soft or hard keyboards. But from reading around, I seem to find that the keyboard is locked to one language. What a dumb idea. Yet another stupid problem with my phone that shouldn't be a problem.
I'm using GO keyboard from the android market. You're able to download multiple language packs as well and Pinyin is working fine for me even on the physical keyboard.
Thanks for the advice, it works great. A bit of trouble to get Chinese working correctly, but it's fine now.
Glad to help. =D
Other keyboards that support language change via hardware keyboard are Smart Keyboard Pro and AnySoftKeyboard.

QWERTY intead of AZERTY

hello ,I have an Andromadus ROM(mimicry 1.3) installed with a french keyboard(AZERTY)
when I want to use my physical keyboard it's on QWERTY instead of AZERTY
can you help?
thanks.
Did you set your language as French (France) in system settings -> language?
And when using the physical keyboard, is the android stock input selected, or is SwiftKeys3 selected?
Reason I ask is because other users with French Desire-Z having shown their keyboard physically has a AZERTY layout, have not had any problems typing as expected on mimicry. Unless it's a weird beast of a english Desire-Z with the keys switched around.

[Q] Adding a French qwerty mapping in myONEv?

Hi, first poster and first time flasher, very exciting stuff, especially the pre-OC'd kernel, I love it
I do have a little issue with myONEv though, the ROM doesn't have a "Français (Cananda)" locale and it appear that all the other French locales have an azerty keyboard. Is it possible to add a French locale with a qwerty keyboard mapping, or somehow change the mapping without changing the language?
Thanks for your time.

Hmmm any French keyboard will work fine
Example m on India but English(dubai) works fine for me

Hi, thanks for the reply.
It's not that they don't work, the issue is that all the French locales use the azerty key mapping. In Canada we use the French qwerty keyboard, unfortunately right now I cannot get both a French system and a qwerty stock keyboard in myONEv. I can always use a third party keyboard like swiftkey as a workaround though.
sad man! have u tried googling it!?
