[Q] Two languages - one outer keyboard - TouchPad General

I've got my self a Bluetooth keyboard and paired it to my Touchpad - all went well.
But - I have two languages set and it seems that I'm stacked on the English one.
Is there a key shortcut to replace between keyboards layouts?
I'm using CM9 and using the default android keyboard

[Q] Keyboard

Hello
I got two HD2, one for personal use, and one for work.
Problem is the one I received for work is using an alternative keyboard (the one of old phone keyboards [abc] [def] ...)
How to revert this to the traditional keyboard ??
Found, just touch the little arrow next to keyboard icon !

[APP] Open Split Keyboard (Holo themed Tab Keyboard)

Open Split Keyboard has now been verified to work with the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1. This keyboard provides three different layouts: split keyboard, full keyboard, and one handed keyboard. It defaults to a holo theme, but can be switched to the Gingerbread or stone themes.
For details and updates see the original thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1144171

Nice find, I've been looking for a decent free thumb keyboard layout.
Doesnt work for me. Installed it but does not show up in keyboards to select from in tab 10.1 (16gb 3g version with new touchwiz version that comes by default in europe now).

It should be in Settings>Language & Input>Keyboard Settings>Configure input methods.
You have to check it to enable it to be chosen as a keyboard.
Works amazingly well. Love it.
Love this keyboard
Cool. Thanks.

Stock keyboard (voice input) and working alternative keyboards

Can somebody tell me if it is possible somehow to turn voice input from stock keyboard? I looked in settings but couldn't find it. Also, do you use other keyboards? I got used to use HTC IME by jonasl, but now on 1280x720 it is obviously to small for the screen. I am testing Smart Keyboard now which is pretty fimiliar to HTC IME and has the option of voice input. I don't like Swipe as I never swipe, got used to "click" symbols. I would continue using stock keyboard if not the lack of voice input.

I use smart keyboard Pro. Been using it since the X10 days, love it.
Im using "Ice cream sandwich keyboard free"
works well, and gives you the voice input button there too
I'm typing quite a bit quicker on this keyboard as well, seems to be working for me.
give it a go
I've always used thumb keyboard on any android device I use. Has good customization options and keyboard themes.
I use ICS keyboard full ..
It have a good arabic letters layout, and I use gestures to change language, close keyboard , and delete last word ..
I works great in this big screen and just take a little space of the screen ..
even I already purchased Swiftkey X, but I feel more comfortable with ICS keyboard ..

[Q] Change from QWERTZ to QWERTY

Hi everyone!
Is there any way to change my DX's keyboard from QWERTZ to QWERTY?
I bought this device a few weeks ago, but I wasn't told that it was coming with a QWERTZ keyboard. To be honest, it's not a real problem to me, as I've almost got used to it.
I just want to know if there is any way to change it...
If I go to "Keyboard types", the default choice is "Standard". Changing it to "Phone" or "Compact", will make the keyboard QWERTY, but it will also affect the keyboard layout, making it difficult (for me) to use.
Downloading (for example) a third-party keyboard from the market, will turn it into a QWERTY keyboard, or there will be no changes?
I'd also like to ask, if I'm going to face any king of problems when flashing unofficial ROM's.
Well, you can just choose another keyboard language, by single pressing the button with the country's letters, for example: if you live in France, it shows: FR, just press it till the qwertz changes to qwerty

Thanks for the answer! I just checked that!
It's true that by changing the keyboard to my country's one (GR), the keyboard turns to qwerty. But the the Greek letters are not are not the same as the Latin ones, so unfortunately it does not help.
I also changed the English language to French (cause they have the same characters), but the keyboard remained qwertz.
Go to settings>language & keyboard>HTC Sense input>keyboard selection, when you scroll completely down, it will show some other keyboards, I don't know the Greek keyboard, but I think it's somewhere there

At keyboard selection, all I can see (except for the toggle keyboard option) is about selecting different languages. No option for qwerty there.
I'm gonna send a mail at htc support, and if I'll find a solution about this, I'll immediately post it here.
In HTC Sense input, first the top button: keyboard selection, then scroll down as much as you can, there you'll see different types of keyboards

Yeap, this is excactly where I went! The only thing I can do there is add/remove languages from my keyboard.
But...
At HTC Sense Input, there is an "Advanced Settings" option, where I change the keyboard type. The problem is that by changing the type to "Phone" or "Compact", it changes to qwerty (at Compact type), but the whole keyboard's layout is completely different.

But, when you choose France for example, it shows a azerty keyboard, when you choose German, a qwertz keyboard, choose Dutch, a QWERTY keyboard, just try them out.

If you want greek letters, you press microphone buttons till you get greek. If you want QWERTY press the mic till you get english or anu other qwerty language.

HTC replied to me a few hours ago, and they told me that the only way to change it to a qwerty keyboard, is by installing a third party keyboard from Play Store.
I was planning to buy SwiftKey 3 Keyboard the previous days (when it was on 50% sale), but I postponed it, cause I thought that it was going to be similar (qwertz) to the stock.

This doesn't happen in my case. Don't know why, but if I choose French (or German or Italian) I will still have a the exact same (qwertz) keyboard. No changes at all!

My problem is that I cannot get qwerty keyboard with English (or other similar Latin) language selected.
When I press the mic in order to choose Greek, the keyboard turns to "qwerty", but when I change back to English (or other identical Latin keyboards), the keyboard becomes qwertz again!
Weird... Well, use the SwiftKey keyboard if it fixes the problem...

[Q] Samsung Keyboard no longer has Chinese input language after hard reset

Hi all, wondering if anyone has the same incredibly frustrating problem.
I'm using a Galaxy Note 2 GT-N7105
I used to use the Samsung Keyboard with English and the Chinese language input (downloaded in it's language settings).
But after a hard rest (My phone had recently updated itself to 4.3 with no change) I no longer have Chinese as a downloadable language.
WHY is this so annoying... Becuase if I use another keyboard that has chinese I can't swap between it and the Samsung Keyboard in Keyboard. The Samsung has to be selects in the phone setting and can't be selected as one of many keyboards.
The reason why I wish to use the Samsung keyboard is becuase of its great swipe input function. I have not found another keyboard that has swipe in English and Chinese input funtionality.
Which means I can never using any combo of keyboards swap easily from chinese to swipe english keyboard. Aarrgghh!!!!!
I think It has something to do with the locale version of the 4.3 android os. I heard that different locales have different downloadable language options. But why has mine sudenly changed!
Anyone?

Samsung must have changed the CSC of your device when upgrading to Android 4.3
I don't own your device. So I am just sharing what I know.
Go to messaging app, and select create new message and the keyboard will be activated.
In that look for any settings icon.
If there is one, then click on it and change your input language.
^If it doesn't work, go to menu>settings>language and input and change the options.
Press thanks if I have helped.
Maybe someone has better ideas.
