[Q] [ANSWERED] how does the bluetooth keyboards work? - Galaxy Tab 7.7 Accessories

I have czech language keyboard layout with 4 rows (1 row is with special characters instead of numbers) so will a bluetooth keyboard work according to chosen SW keyboard layout or is it already set as any bluetooth keyboard is?
Thanks
Answer:
so....have just bought usb host and wireless Logitech MK710 CZ (keyb.+mouse 3 years battery life) works perfect with czech special letters!
So it probably depends on the keyboard. So dont need to invest in a new keyboard
So Android has no competitors ....again

bump...im also interested in this

I have tried it with a USB keyboard but I guess it will be the same on the Bluetooth one. It depends what layout is selected on the Tab - if it is Czech then you will write with this layout. This however works only using Samsung's keyboard or Go Keyboard. When I have selected Swype - the typing is with US layout, no matter which layout was chosen.

Please, could you try Hackers keyboard and set czech language??
Thank you!

Doesn't work, sorry. The top row of the keyboard is typing numbers instead of accented characters.

So,
is there any way to type these characters? Perhaps changing smthin' in the system?

I'm afraid that a keyboard itself must be built for an appropriate language

No, this is software issue. Is there a Czech layout for Go Keyboard?

Unfortunately it doesn't have
So is it an android software issue or a keyboard software issue?

It is an issue with the layout, which is in the tablet. I would try searching for a keyboard for the tablet where you can make your layout - map keys to characters. This way you can customize your keyboard as you wish.

So it probably depends on the keyboard as it should be!

[Q] Changing Language in Fabulous Gingerbread Keyboard for Word Suggestion/Prediction

Hey There,
I live in Germany and type most of my SMS in german.
I flashed the "Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) Keyboard" from Fabulous? under CM6.1 on my Hero. (the one from the "perfect setup guide")
it's working just fine, but the suggested words are all in english, which is actually pretty annoying, since I can make no mistake while typing.
Is there ANY way to change the dictionary/word-completion-database (whatever is responsible), so the keyboard actually suggests german words, when keyboard is set to german and english words, when set to same.
If I could only change it to one language permanently, I would still like to change it towards german.
If this doesn't work, which keyboard should I give a try? This should have a working auto-prediction in german under CM6.1
I know Swype and HTC_IME...
cheers
I don't think you can but have you tried changing your language on the phone if that does not work you might want to download smart keyboard trail from the android market then search for smart keyboard language the german language should be somewhere in the search result then go into settings then language and keyboard then check the smart keyboard trail then long press on then go into message and compose message then long press on any box and choose smart keyboard trail
phone language is already set to german. changing it to english and then back to german didn't change anything.
will give smart keyboard a try!
thanks for the suggestion.
try this one

guess it should work (let me know if it does )
and found this on my pc: should be multilangual.. with german if i
remember correctly (flash in recovery)
OR from android market..

I think we will have to wait for months until spanish dock become available. I'm have preordered UK dock from amazon uk.
After rooting and modding the keymaps, i found out the correct method: go into settings, obviously language, then go to configure input methods then into the 'asus keyboard' options and deselect auto based on system language and either only use or add spanish (us) (spanish spain will change a lot of your symbol buttons, us wont) then when typing, just select the ASUS spanish keyboard (input lang selector in task area), then to do the ñ, hold alt when pushing n, the same is for vowels to get the accent and hold alt+shift for capital letters. ü, Ü are mapped to the y, using the same method also.
There ya go, a method that doesn't require rooting or any of that jazz. I put the effort into figuring this out only because I'm taking spanish classes. this also seems to make it so you can just push ' then the vowel, (like with an actual spanish keyboard) but didn't seem to do that in all apps, honestly I don't like that because i use the apostrophe a lot, but i can just change between eng and esp.
EDIT:
pushing the ' button before the vowel will work in everything it seems, i just didn't notice it until after becuse i had been looking at keymappings and just noticed the alt+key mappings. also ~ before n works, etc... o it's like a spanish keyboard with the added alt+vowel / etc... mapping.
Also, this only works with the ASUS spanish layout, the android spanish keyboard, swype, slideit, etc... will not work with this.

[Q] Change Layout of Bluetooth Keyboard

I bought the General Keys Bluetooth keyboard (http://www.amazon.de/GeneralKeys-Bluetooth-Mini-Tastatur-iPad-andere-Bluetooth-Geräte/dp/B004HKQ8V4) But it has only the english Layout on my HTC Flyer.
How can i change it?
Are you rooted? If so you might be able to edit "/system/usr/keychars/", other than that I'm not sure. If you install a different language for your keyboard does it switch the character set?

I am not rooted but i'm not afraid of doing if it will make the keyboard work But i have no idea how to change the "keychars" also if I'd be rooted, you might have to explain that to me
I already used the App External Keyboard (test version) but the only thing that happened was that now some keys (e.g. "s" or "w") start apps and i can't even write with the english layout anymore

Android keyboard automatic shortcuts.

Hi!
I'm latvian and in our language there are letters as ā, ē, š, ū and so on...
Question:
Is there an option (some keyboard or other method) that if I type two a (aa) and phone automatically transforms it to ā.
I found that stock android keyboard has shortcuts, but it doesn't change these phrases - they only show them as suggestion.
Thanks in advance,
Martin

Use a 3rd party keyboard maybe it'll help!
Yes, I have found 3rd party keyboard that does it, but I am not trully satified with keyboard layout and ergonomics.
So, maybe there is some option to force native android keyboard to do this... ?

Very nice
Could you please develop a QWERTY keyboard as well. Please?
There are some good QWERTY keywords out there. What problem do you have with them?

Eh, not fully sure exactly what's needed... but will this help?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hebrew_(Unicode_block)
Maybe you want me to try to lay them in a similar style like you did? or it has some particular name so I'll search for it?

Can you type all the characters in the attached image here in the same order? It helps me to find the Unicodes easier.
Ok, I'll write each number with the letters on it:
2 - דהו
3 - אבג
4 - מםנן
5 - יכךל
6 - זחט
7 - רשת
8 - צץק
9 - סעפף

When I'm at a field that it is needed to type with a keyboard, I can use the Google keyboard, but when I switch to the multi tap keyboard, The multi tap keyboard does not open.
Hi, thank you for adding Hebrew.
But for me as well it's not opening now the keyboard unless I switch to the Google one
Sorry for that, please check the new version I just released.

There is been a change in the new API that broke a small part of the keyboard. I fixed it in the new version.
Well, I tested it now,
And it works mostly, I already forgot how actually T9 was fast, for a smartwatch it makes more sense than qwerty I think...
But there's 1 bug I guess, when something is typed already, the Globe icon supposed to turn into a delete icon and act like it, but what happens is that the delete works but it stays as a globe icon.
Another bug is (I think it happens now on English as well) the button to switch to numbers/symbols, it works but the actual view stays on the letters.
And on Hebrew, there are no big or small letters, so the button where it supposed to switch it, acts as inputting of something that I'm not sure what it is lol.
Another feature request (maybe it's not possible) add a microphone button for speach to text for the current language (I'm still hoping to be able to dictate on Hebrew to the watch)
But overall, it works great!! I can't even tell you how happy I am for this! thank you!!!
