[Q] How do I edit the keyboard layout? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone,
Since besides English I speak German and Hungarian, i would like to edit the keyboard layout of my Galaxy Note running CyanogenMod 9.0.0 to create my own with all the letters I need. I tried searching the Web and this site for it, but couldn't find out how to do that. It would be great if someone would help me.
Greetings,
Patrick

Thank you for your reply, I already did that, but I didn't like the locations of the buttons in the numbers-menu.

[Q] Japanese keybored

Hello every one i am new to this section just recently traded my xperia x10 for a new s3 yay!!
Any way i am used to having 2 key bored sets i realise this is easily done however my standard UK Vodafone s3 does not have a Japanese key bored available is it possible to install one or some thing any advice would be great
I don't want to dive straight in to rooting and flashing this phone just yet but if any one knows of a stock ROM that has a nice key bored with Japanese and English supported that would be great
I did try searching but i could not find any related topics so please any advice would be great.
Thank you for all your advice in advance and i look forwarded to joining this new area.

Why your keys are bored? Nothing on tv or what?
Any way if you're looking for a Japanese keyboard try go keyboard, it's free.

Just search play store for "japanese keyboard" there are a few, I have used easy Japanese keyboard before to play around with.
Edit: you do need to know hiragana and katakana at least to use it, it's not like the MS IME on windows, just thought I would mention that.

I think the best keyboard might be multiling keyboard. You may have a try . It has lots of language inside

Thanks for the advice but i really like the Samsung keyboard so i was really hoping i could add the language to that.
also apologizes for the key bored bit I blame spell checker.
i will download one unless any one knows of a ROM that has one in the Samsung bit or a way to add a language i asume it must be possible as the phone is sold in japan.
Thanks for all your advice
I use the official Google Japanese IME, it works well. Othewise, Simeji Keyboard works good aswell.
Thank you very one for your help
I have settled on the official IME one looks ok but i am sad Samsung don't support Japanese but they do every other language
Thanks for the help if mod finds please close now

Yeah, no Japanese, Chinese, Arabic, Persian...
But they have a lot of other languages. The Samsung IME is not bad though.
There is a Japanese language set available for the native Swype keyboard in the S3.
You just have to download it in the settings menu.
the thread is five months old, c'mon

Also, this has nothing to do with Galaxy S2, This is a generic Android question and should be asked in Android forum.

Google keyboard missing english

Hi,
On my old phone I always used to type with the Google Keyboard. Mostly switching between English and Dutch with the button next to the space bar.
Now, on my Honor 7, I don't have the option to select English when choosing languages.
I can only choose either "Use system language" OR one or more "Active input methods" but that last one does not include English.
Anybody with the same issue or a solution for this?
Related but not such a big issue. My layout should be azerty but is now qwerty.
Thanks in advance

Use swype keyboard, it's far better and you can set any language, even two of them.
Isn´t the original Huawei standard keyboard actually a Swype version?

It is indeed. Just switch to English and adjust variables as you wish.

I have the same issue and don't want to use the swipe keyboard. I can only select Dutch or English, not both at the same time and then switch via the space bar.
Send from my Honor 7 using the free xda app.
You can select both languages and switch them with the space bar.

The strange thing is, when I choose my local language, I can choose any additional language, but not English...
I used this keyboard before on other phones, no issues there.

Check thoroughly through all language settings, there is a ton of them and somewhere you have even Chinese as a second language preset. I adjusted all settings and I can select both languages as you can see on attached pictures.
Similar problem
I have got Honor 7 just couple of days ago but have already noticed that Google Keyboard is missing a lot of layouts, especially the one I really appreciated - Uzbek. I have had Galaxy S4 before and installed Google Keyboard from Play Store and it has much more layouts available.
Anyone knows if there is any way to uninstall preinstalled Google Keyboard from Honor 7 and reinstall it from Play Store?

You simply must root your phone, remove google keyboard from system (make sure to install a keyboard app before you do so) then reinstall it.
Or try updating the app if possible

Yeah, I came to the same conclusion. I wrote to Huawei support their reply is the standard "If the language is not available on the Google keyboard settings then I'm afraid there's no support for that language"

Updating didn't help. I have the latest version (5.1.23.127065177-arm64-v8a) according to Play Store.

I have English. I don't have Uzbek layout (which exists on my Galaxy S4).
@Jixop Go to Language & Input settings, you'll have options there to enable various languages.

I don't know what's wrong here.
I was able to solve this! I upgraded to Android 6 and was able to disable the preinstalled Google Keyboard. Then I installed its clone from an .apk and then I have finally found Uzbek layout!
