Deal language auto switch - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
Prior to the new upgrade of strawberry, on my Samsung galaxy s7, I was able to type a word in English or in Dutch without hitting the space bar to select an language. So it automatically knew what language I was typing in. How do I put it back to that setting?

[Q] Simple way to switch languages on keyboard dock

Hello everyone.
I've recently bought my dad the prime with a keyboard dock and I can't find a quick and easy way to change the input language of the keyboard when it's docked.
There is an option to change the device's language to our local one (Hebrew if that matters), but then it changes everything to Hebrew.
I just want the device's language to be English and have something like alt+shift to switch between the languages when it's docked.
However, so far it's either stuck on English (if the device's language is set to English), or alternates randomly between Hebrew and English (probably depends on the context of the text) with no real way to change it.
Is this a known issue? Is there a way to solve this?
Well, apparently ctrl+space does the trick when the keyboard is docked, at least for me.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
if you go to ASUS keyboard setting, and only check Hebrew keyboard (without English Keyboard), you can simply switch back and forth between English and Hebrew by pressing alt key which is right next to space bar.
when alt key is pressed, it shows which keyboard has activated via little dialog box on the center of the screen.
This is the control + shift hassle free of doing it.

Book cover keyboard key mapping

I have the new keyboard book cover with my Tab s4. The input language is set to UK but keys like the pound sign and @ sign are not mapped to the appropriate keys. Is there a driver issue or am I missing something?
Thanks
I don't see that issue here, but I'm English US on my end. I did switch to UK English, and I see what you're saying that's odd. I kind of understand the pound (# vs £), but the @ issue seems super strange to me. Have you reached out to Samsung? There might need to be some kind of software update from their end.
For that matter, I hope they drop the "Shift+Space" for language selection. There's already a language key, so aside from it being pointless, it messes me up a lot when I don't let go of Shift fast enough after typing "I". I thought I was going crazy for a bit until I figured that out. lol
I assume the book cover is the original one from Samsung so in order to set up the proper layout check the settings "General management / Language and input/ language/ English (united kingdom)" that the language is English (United Kindgom). Also, go to the physical keyboard "General management / Language and input/ language/Physical Keyboard/ Samsung Keyboard (Uk)". That's the way I have it and works flawlessly. Let me know if that works.
I thought this thread was about actual key remapping. I'd love to remap that language key to something more useful, like getting to the home screen. I'd also like to remap the language shortcut, ctrl+space. And lastly, I keep hitting ] instead of backspace, and it's driving me nuts. Any idea if these keys are remappable?
This app might help, there's a free demo version.

Layout problem with official keyboard cover

Hey fellow TAB S4-users,
I (a student) have owned the Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 64gb LTE and the official keyboard cover for a couple of months now. But I have one very annoying problem with the Keyboard/ Samsung Dex software that persists. I have bought this keyboard in the French AZERTY-layout, but because I'm a student of Japanology, I have to use Japanese input very often. When I switch to Japanese input the keyboard switches to a QWERTY-layout with no option to change the layout for Japanese in Samsung Dex. For instance, if I want to type "kazoku", I have to put in "kqwoku". It is certainly possible to adapt to the QWERTY-layout because only the letter "A" and "Z" are switched to respectively "Q" and "W" and furthermore the letter "M" is switched to the key for ",". But what I strugle the most with is that the interpuction on a QWERTY-keyboard is completely different. Furthermore the Japanese script doesn't use the same interpuction as the latin script . For instance, if I want to type the "。" (the Japanese period), I have to input on my AZERTY-keyboard ":" (on a QWERTY-keyboard that would be the key corrsesponding to ".").
If I've searched far and wide for a solution to this problem, but I have not found any. In Windows 10 I encountered the same problem, but was able to fix it by changing the layout for Japanese IME to AZERTY in the registry. But since their is not a similar thing to the Windows Registry in Android/Samsung Dex, I was wondering if I their is a possibility to change the layout for Japanese Romaji input ?
Thanks in avance,
Kaï
