Hello everybody.
My first post here.
I've been trying to find an easy way of typing letters like (á, í, ó, ú, ý and ð) using the qwerty keyboard.
I've found some threads, but what people are saying makes no sense to me. To technical.
So I was wondering, if anyone could help me.
Is it possible to modify the phone to type these letter, without entering the symbols menu. Also I haven't been able to find the letter ð, Ð anywhere on the phone.
Thanks in advance.

Try altering the keymap.
.-ombre-.
WOW, this looks like it is it.
However, in the other thread, it states "just move the file to the windows folder"
Should it replace another file? Is there a sub-folder in the windows folder where it should be?
The thing is, that I have no experience in working with phones in this way.
But thanks so far
hzd
Yes, it will replace the original keymap text file. Not sure if the integrated file browser will let you do that, but copying with ActiveSync or other filebrowsers such as TotalCommander will definately work
.-ombre-.
Ahh... I see... I think
I will try this out.
hzd
OK. I did this, but no change. Do I have to change anything in the regional settings. Language perhaps...
I downloaded the file in the link. Copied it to the phone and used the resco explorer to copy it to the windows folder on my phone. But the keyboard works in the same way still.
Thanks for the help anyway Don't wan't to sound *****y

i repeat :
this rom does contain 20% of english translation only !
Even you change to english language :
your 80% of menu still display "Chinese".
So, this is useless unless you understand simplified Chinese. I'll wait on g4rb4g3 to release a port.

Device Specific Language Packs
I think that language packs are device specific.. I haven't been able to find a language pack on the net for the G2.. though I did manage to a how to guide but I'm green to this stuff..
If somebody out here is familiar with how to do this guide and create a language pack for the G2 for us.. that would be helpful.
djmcnz said:
Okay guys, there's a lot of demand for this rom and for language packs but not yet a lot of people who know how to make the packs. Whilst I set up the crowdin translation project I can not create or maintain language packs.
So, here's a summary of the instructions required to create a language pack for MIUI (indeed for any app/rom). You need a collection of tools and a little patience but the process isn't too difficult so do give it a go.
Also note that this summary includes generalisations for brevity. These instructions assume you have a deodexed rom.
Introduction
For the purposes of this post language information is stored in XML strings in files on the Android system. In the case of MIUI and these instructions we will be dealing with .apk files (applications).
Within the apk files is a resources directory (/res) and within this are various values directories, there is a default values directory (/res/values) and alternative language values directories (e.g. /res/values-DE and /res/values-IT).
If the rom is set to use it's default language it will read values from /res/values although these may NOT be in English. In MIUI, all of the common Android ASOP values in /res/values are English but the (additional) custom MIUI strings are in Simplified Chinese.
If you select a different language in the ROM than the default then the appropriate values directory will be searched. If a suitable string that matches your language selection is found in the alternative /res/values-xx directory then that string will be used instead. If an alternative does not exist then the default will be used.
Example:
Code:
/res/[COLOR="red"]values[/COLOR]/strings.xml
<stop_button_text>[COLOR="Red"]Stop[/COLOR]</stop_button_text>
/res/[COLOR="red"]values-DE[/COLOR]/strings.xml
<stop_button_text>[COLOR="red"]Halt[/COLOR]</stop_button_text>
/res/[COLOR="red"]values-IT[/COLOR]/strings.xml
<stop_button_text>[COLOR="red"]Basta[/COLOR]</stop_button_text>
In this example, if the language is set to the default the word "Stop" will be used, if it is set to German the word "Halt" will be substituted in, likewise "Basta" for Italian.
So, to add languages to a rom (or app) or to make an app multi-lingual you need to either change the default strings in /res/values/strings.xml to the ones you want to use or, and this is the preferable approach, add a /res/values-xx/strings.xml with the translations you want. The first approach will work (changing the default strings) but is not recommended because the Android Open Source Project and Android development in general, defaults to English. It's best to use the built in language substitution capabilities of Android rather than to work around them. Indeed, if the MIUI devs actually added their strings in English to /res/values/strings.xml and the Chinese equivalents in the appropriate directory this rom would already be in English!
Adding Languages
To add a translation file (strings.xml) to an apk you need to:
decode the apk
create a language directory
add the translation files
recompile the strings
add the new strings to the apk
Which all sounds a little daunting but it's really quite straight-forward, rewarding when you see the result and a good way to understand how parts of Android work. Here's how you can do it.
1. decode the apk
You will need the excellent apktool from brut.all which you can get from the link below. apktool is relatively easy to use but includes some little tricks so you will need to read the wiki and thread about it.
Do NOT just post problems about apktool if you can't get it to work. The tool DOES work so if it's not decoding (or encoding) your apps correctly then you're probably doing something wrong. If you start with this understand BEFORE you ask for support you'll get a lot more help...
apktool: http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/
wiki: http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/w/list
thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=640592
Please make sure you run the following command to include the MIUI framework in apktool. You only need to do this once for each framework. If apktool works with one rom and not the next then (re)install the framework for that rom.
Code:
apktool if framework-res.apk
Where framework-res.apk is the one from the rom you are working with. Make sure apktool can find (the correct) framework-res.apk before you run this command.
This thread is not for apktool support.
Now, before you proceed, decode a simple app from MIUI (such as updater.apk) using apktool, do not make ANY changes, then re-encode it using apktool. For example:
Code:
apktool d Updater.apk ./decoded/
apktool b ./decoded/ new_updater.apk
Use the -v (verbose) flag in apktool if you have problems and need to diagnose further.
Remember, Android uses a case-sensitive file system, make sure your capitalisation is correct.
Typically you will not be able to install this apk because it is not signed so if you want to test the process further you can now just try step 5 below using the two apks you have.
2. create a language directory
Assuming you can decode/encode now, this is the easy bit. For your decoded app, navigate to the directory it was decoded in, then to the /res/ directory and simply create an empty directory for your language (e.g. /values-FR/) - use international naming conventions.
3. add the translation files
Again, not too difficult this. Download the appropriate language file for your apk from the crowdin project linked below and, using the same structure as exists in /res/values/strings.xml create a new file called strings.xml in your alternative language directory (e.g. /res/values-ES/strings.xml).
The news strings.xml may contain as many or as few translations as you like. Remember, if a translation does not exist the default value from /res/values/strings.xml will be used.
Crowdin: http://crowdin.net/project/miui-rom-translation/invite
The xml formatting and tag names need to match exactly with the default strings.xml in /res/values although the translated file does NOT need to be complete.
It is worth remembering here that unless your source apk is already translated to English then some of the default values in /res/values/strings.xml will still be in Chinese, it would pay to check these.
4. recompile the strings
Now, if you've done everything carefully and correctly this step is really easy, all you need to do is recompile the apk with apktool using the b (for Build) switch.
Code:
apktool b ./<decoded_apk_dir>/ <output_apk_name>.apk
If this throws errors or does not work then use the -v switch to turn on verbose mode and diagnose your problem. If you did the test in step #1 and it worked then any problem at this step is likely related to your news strings.xml. Back out the changes one by one until you have found the problem and try again.
If you simply can't get it to compile with your changes then try just making a single change to the default strings.xml file in /res/values and see if that works for you.
Do NOT sign the apk!
5. add the new strings to the apk
Easy. Open your new apk with a zip program (like 7Zip for Windows) and copy out the resources.arsc file in the root directory of the apk. Now take that file and copy it into the source apk from the rom overwriting the existing one. This process replaces the strings but keeps the integrity of the signatures on the files.
You can now push the modified file to your phone, replacing the stock one, reboot and you're translated. Push the file using "adb push" or copy it into place using a root file manager, do not "install" the new apk. Make sure you put it in the correct place (replace the original) and reboot.
Conclusion
This process will help you add languages to any app including those in the MIUI rom. Because it's a rom the strings are contained in many different apps as well as framework-res.apk. To completely translate the rom you will need to edit every apk that has strings in it.
You will need to do this every time an apk in the rom changes. If a new version is released and say launcher2.apk is changed but updater.apk is not, then you can retain your updater.apk but you'll need to re-edit your launcher2.apk.
When an app changes the default strings.xml may also change. In this case you will need to make corresponding changes to your translations.
Good luck and if you get really stuck there's lots of people in this that have achieved success and may be willing to help!

MIUI 1.2.11 for Vision ENG
Hi, all. I like the MIUI ROM and as most of you want to have latest version as soon as posible. But I am not a dev and my skills in android development are very very poor. So, i followed the versions of MIUI by g4rb4g3. They all are very stable and fast. And i want to say once more HUGE THANX to him for his work.
But when i found this thread today in the morning i decide to make it in english. So, putting together the ROM from 1st post and ENG pack for N1 from MIUI-DEV.COM with some additional editing of built.prop and adding some apps. I made a pack. Flashed it and it is working fine.
P.S. The only chinese words that i found are in MIUI account registration in Accounts&sync.

WOOOO..good job . it's perfect !!!!!!!! work very well ~!! thanks a lot
Ok, there are roms that includes files for several languages for text -> speech , but non are my native language.
What files are needed and how to install (just copy with root explorer?) and are there even such files for my language (Finnish) ?
Any help is appreciated.
If this can be solved, I think there are people needing same for their language.
BTW. I need files for ICS 4.0.4
To send or not to send, that is not really a question?

As I'm a newbie here, I'm not aloud to post this in the dev section.
So I'll explain how you can simply change you're physical keyboard layout on Gingerbread and ICS easily without flashing an appropriate kernel for the Xperia Pro mk16i iyokan.
-So first you need root access.
-second, you need to install a root explorer like ES file explorer.
activate the root access to /system in the option of ES file explorer.
-ones you're here, you need to identify all the layout you're rom got. they are listed as xml files in the directory:
/system/usr/keyboard-config/layouts
my rom contains almost all keyset imaginable.
-Now you've find the name of your keyset find the file :
/system/usr/keyboard-config/keyprint.xml
-edit it with the file explorer integrated file editor.
-you'll find a file formatted with a fanzy SE header and that:
HTML:
<Keyprint>
<Script name="arabic" keylayout="arabic"/>
<Script name="cyrillic" keylayout="cyrillic"/>
<Script name="greek" keylayout="greek"/>
<Script name="hebrew" keylayout="hebrew"/>
<Script name="latin" keylayout="qwerty"/>
<Script name="thai" keylayout="thai"/>
</Keyprint>
-Choose the alphabet you use and put the name of your layout without the xml file extension.
if you're europeen or american, I guest latin will be you're choice.
For arabic, greek, croatian russian... and every other languages using an another alphabet I let you choose
So for example if I want to change my latin layout from Qwerty to Qwertz
I replace the line
HTML:
<Script name="latin" keylayout="qwerty"/>
by
HTML:
<Script name="latin" keylayout="qwertz"/>
-so save the file and reboot you're phone, you should now get the right keyboard set for you're phone.
Or you can edit it with adb by pulling the file and pushing it after (but it's a bit more tricky
Have a good night and if anybody can move my thread in the good section I'll be very pleased
ps:
All credits and inspiration came from the original post of ameer1234567890 which provide a lot of flashable layout.
I think this works only on stock and stock based ROMs. Can someone please confirm if this works on a ROM like CM7 or CM9.
I'd like to know too, because i used to use cm7 on htc dz but as cm7 or 9 are still in dev for mk16i I never tried them on mine for now

This does not work in 3rd party apps (smart keyboard pro and swiftkey), also on some cases chrome will misbehave as well. I think chrome is bypassing the xperia keyboard when it's trying to be super-secure such as entering passwords.
Chrome won't show you virtual keyboard at all in such cases so I think it can be safely filed under BUG but that won't help if you can't sign in. Using opera mobile as a workaround works..
I'm pretty sure the stock gingerbread finnish firmware played nice with smart keyboard pro. There's a link in the "root" Xperia pro thread where you can download "hotfix" for Xperia pro. These claim to be keyboard layouts for various languages. These are NOT the text files you describe here but the actual android keymap files.
They did not work for me, though, boo. I'll have to try again. The files in keychars-folder (MAKE BACKUPS!!) are .kcm.bin while the originals are called .kcm. I would assume both are not used at the same time. In keylayouts (backup bro) the replacement files are .kl, same as original but smaller.
3rd party keyboard has never been my point.
Stock android is handling physical keyboard a certain way, and virtual keyboard such as slide it or swiftkey do as they want with that kind of thing.
Switft never works correctly for me with stock rom or with custom rom.
Sorry if it doesn't work.
but if every software interprete keyboard there own way, we're damn lost. I never use Chrome but I guest it can also interprets keyboard layout its own way.
the flash fix you talk about is interesting, I'll try it asap. thks
Those keyboard layout/keychars files just make the HW keyboard stop working properly. I think they come from mini pro. Or at the very least they'd need some configury thingy somethere.
As a positive note, they DO make HW keyboard behave differently but swedish/finnish one definitely does not produce local chars.
Meh, I guess I need to fork up 2€ for wotanserver to get authentic finnish firmware.
FWIW I'm pretty sure stock finnish gingerbread firmware didn't have a problem with smart keyboard pro. And android + keyboard is a bit of a odd-man-out, we don't even get a forum..
Ed: Chrome works ok 95% of the time, I should file bug about text boxes where it goes crazy.
That's too bad, that it doesn't work for you.
Fact is we are at the border of android with physical keyboard.
And ow with nexus 3 without physical button except for sound and power...
I think (not hope) that physical keyboard for phones is almost arrived at its end.
Regarding stock firmwares, my update to ICS made by official sony companion just put me a Qwerty layout :-D so don't be so sure about stock firmwares ;-)
Umlauts in quertz
anybody know how to fix the orders of the umlauts for qwertz layout in the pop-up and make the SYM-Button working?
flashing of files newer worked for me, or a could'nt more use the shortcuts like copy-paste...
see also this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1658959&page=20
Search trough the web for solution. nothing.
Physical keyboard has a driver, or own FW or sumthing?
And can i have the stock xperia physical keyboard app?
My sym button doesn't work, my direction arrows are weird, qwerty-stroke keyboard layout. But i accept the latin one too
Or where is this "driver"-stuff in the ROM? Can i copy from old ROM (which one is working), to ICS .587 (which don't)?

Good Post, i tried it but it does not work after i reboot.
So my keyboard is still the QWERTY layout instead of QWERTZ
Also, some detailed instructions on ES Explorer.
Once you open ES Explorer, Left Drawer --> Go to Tools --> Root Explorer --> Mount RW --> Set / to RW
Now you can follow the steps to edit the keyprint.xml
Again let me remind you, i tried this and it does not work. So if i have done it the wrong way, please let me know.
Ivona Salli has been added to the Kindle Fire and I was messing around with the "say" command in Tasker and was absolutely stunned by this voice. I tried extracting every single Ivona file out of a Kindle update bin and put it all in stock Android. I had 2 outcomes. 1) Ivona TTS has stopped working 2) I fixed that only to find out that Ivona TTS had no version info so language and input didn't want to keep it selected. Would anybody happen to know how or even try to pull this off? Salli is the best TTS voice ever and it would be fantastic to have on stock Android.
Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum for more relevant answers.
Stand by
Good luck
Did anyone get any further with this? Maybe someone could upload the Salli files, so others could take a look?
I got tired of my Kindle Fire and it's lack of stock Android features and simple things like having TWRP for nandroid backups, so I ended up grabbing a Nexus 9 instead. It'd still be nice if anybody else can upload the Salli files though.
i'd love to see this too. Salli is one of the best TTS voices i have heard.

put the voices on your sdcard.
rename a couple of files.
run the modded app and point it to the voice files. Job done!

Thanks Sage. Now I just need to figure out how to make an account over there so I can download the files. Can't get past the Russian captcha image. Thanks again.

I'm not sure that I'm putting thing in the right places and making the right mods, because

i can try.. i am Nougat too so that won't be the problem.
Put the Ivona files in an Ivona folder in the root of your SDCard. \Ivova\eng.us.salli\
you need to rename the files to match the voice you want to use. In my folder i have:
lang_en_us_salli.dat
libtiver.so
libttsivonavoice.so
libvoice_en_us_salli.so
voice_en-Us_salli.dat
vox_en_us_salli22i
Install the modified apk ivona.tts.1.0.0.0b1
Go to Text to speech settings and choose Ivona. Press the Settings button near it choose install voice data and select the ROOT of the folder where eng.us.salli is. So the Ivona folder. NOT the eng.us.salli folder.
If you do it right you should get about 6 log about saying successful. If you do it wrong you only get 2 log lines.
I also have Ivona set to use System Language. And in Android i have both Australia and America. (Because Salli is an American language). I then use Tasker to utilise the voice.

Thank you so much for posting a solution to this. It seems, however, that the files on that site are no longer available. Would you or anyone else be able to send me a copy of the Salli voice files by any chance? Thanks!

Thanks alot Sage. Appreciate the effort.
Now I have to Play around with how to install everything. I'll rad your other post about that.
I'm kinda new to all this flashing and hacking devices so I'll try my best to get it going before I ask questions.
I have a Samsuung SM-T320 wifi that I breathed new life into running cyanogenmod 13. I use it for reading ebooks and been looking for a voice to run text to speech and Salli is by far the best with British Amy coming in a close second.
Thanks once again for the share. :good:
So I have the apk installed and the Ivona folder on the sd card.
I have selected the Ivona tts gone into setting added the ivona folder not the eng.us.salli
The log tells me it completed successfully.
WHen i go back to the the text to speech menu under the Ivona tts 2 menu option are unavalable which are
1. speech rate
2.listen to an ecample
3. defualt language status is avalable with the grey message English (United states, SALLI) is not supported
What am i doing wrong?
seems like this file is missing maybe? I really don't know
voice_en-Us_salli.dat
I saw it on your other post

Sounds like you did everything right. Mine says "Use System Language" and my System Language is English Australia. Though i know in the settings i added United States as well. (you can have 2 languages installed)
voice_en_us_salli.dat is just lang_en_us_salli.dat renamed.

So I just had a look at the original file that you shared. In that file I only got this .dat file - lang_en_us.dat
Now I renamed that file to what match your file list that you posted which was lang_en_us_salli.dat (added the salli)
Should I revert it back to how you sent it?
Should I also add another renamed file voice_en_us_salli.dat?
What is your suggestion?
1. Should I run lang_en_us.dat & renamed file voice_en_us_salli.dat?
2. lang_en_us_salli.dat & voice_en_us_salli.dat
3. only lang_en_us.dat with nothing else?
I would've used the Aussie voices but I don't think they're as good as the U.S
Cheers

So I tried all the above combinations and still nothing works.
In the Language menu I have 4 options
1. use sysytem language
2.English
3.English(United States)
4English(United states SALLI)
In the Ivona TTS section
If i select the first 3 options
spech rate
listen to an example
default language status are all operational options although none will play a demonstration
With Salli selected in the language menu
The fist two options in the Ivona TTS section are not operational and the default language stats says Salli is not supported
I'm confused
