How to customize HTC Keyboard?

Hello,
Lucky you English typers The point is that I live in Poland where we have also special characters. On PC I can get those character by pressing Alt + letter. But what about my HTC?
I tried to use Polish T9, but after installation I get the following:
- indeed I have Polish dictionary - ok
- in compact QWERTY I can type special characters (you can change characters by pressing proper button a few times) - ok
- in compact QWERTY the buttons are associated with normal letters and also Polish characters (when I press for example "l" I get words starting with both "l" and Polish characted similar to "l") - ok
- in compact QWERTY I don't have symbols panel - keyboard area is getting black - wrong
- in full QWERTY there is no way to input Polish characters (by pressing "l" for the second time I would like to get such a character) - wrong
- in full QWERTY the buttons are associated only with normal letters so it is almos impossible to use T9 - wrong
So question to all of you - is there any way to customize this keyboard?
Currently black sumbols screen (compact QWERTY only) gets me crazy. Furthermore it would be superb to be able to modify default grey characters (the one that apprears when you press and hold the button) on full QWERTY. Any ideas?

Im interested in other way how to havo only full keyboard or only keypad because I never use compact keyboard and I can save some storage space and also situation for switching between keyboards...

How to install xT9 French keyboard ?

ok... I need your help.
I asked in the Energy rom thread but without any answer...
So here is the deal :
I have the Energy.DIAMOND.21903.Titanium.LITE.May.10 and I struggle to change the xT9 language to french. I used to change it in Settings\Personal\Input, then Options and I used to have the choice between different languages. Now it's only written "English" and I can't select nor change it.
I tried to install additional keyboards but it didn't change anything.
I searched and I found some clues about changing the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\DefaultLanguage" to the one corresponding to French(010C), and after a softreset, I can see the French language is set under Input\Options, but the keyboard layout is missing the Spacebar and the 4 arrows at the bottom are not displayed. I can click on them but there is no drawing, just a empty field with some weirds artefacts.
I found that by editing the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\ezsip\BioToShowMenu" to "1", it pop up a menu, and let me switch from English to French without messing too much with the registry, but the graphical glitch is still there, I tried french, german... still buggy (missing spacebar graphic, xt9/abc switch is active but always displays xT9 as selected, the 4 arrows at the bottom are filled with colors artefacts)
I can't be the only one having this issue, I'll appreciate your help.
Thanks (a lot !)

Is it possible to change the language of the nook color? Or at least change the configuration of the keyboard so the autocomplete and autocorrect is in spanish?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I cannot speak for spanish, but I can read/type Chinese quite easily with a couple of keyboards that support pinyin (chinese input). A quick glance shows quite a few options: http://www.androidzoom.com/android_applications/spanish keyboard

I change the language of the nook color with morelocale2.
I'll see what I can do with the keyboard. I'm sure swift Key have spanish, but the menu appears white text over white background, so I can't choose the language... Maybe I'll just try them all.

I was able to change the language of two keyboards, SwiftKey and Smart Keyboard. One with a long press in the mic button and the other with a long press in the ABC button.
Sadly, Swift Key uses predictions for both languages at the same time, mixing them, so I had to chose Smart Keyboard as a default, even though I like the former better.

The Beta worked for about 14 days, and then the phone started doing some random hangs. and after not being able to type anything in a SMS i changed the keyboard back, and my phone is now normal.
Cool keyboard, but might cause problems....

when the beta stops working you might want to try Perfect Keyboard, and Smart keyboard, they have similar options, except importing SMS into dictionary.

Thanks for it
I will try and see
Sent from my HD2 using XDA Premium App

i can absolutely recommend swiftkey. try it guys.

This looks nice. Will try it out...

Go Keyboard problems
1. I use the speech recognition a lot. When I set the Voice Key to 'On main keyboard' I loose the Comma key.
Is there any way I can get both the voice key and the comma key on the main screen?
2. When I use the voice recognition (the Voice Recognition is great, 90% or better) but if I try to edit the phrase it shows because a letter is incorrect. I put the cursor to the right of the letter and hit backspace or space and it pastes the whole phrase in again in the middle of the phrase I am trying to edit. Any idea how to avoid this?
I really like Go Keyboard, but these 2 things are driving me nuts.
Regards,
Mark

[Q] Google keyboard language popup

Hello,
I've search for answer or anything like that, but didn't find.
Question: is it possible to leave only one language in keyboard popup (for example I'm from Lithuania so I would like to use only lithuanian languge). In keyboard settings there is only lithuanian language selected, but when I'm typing something and long hold on keys which have additional symbols (in lithuanian language) it pops-up with more that just lithuanian symbols. So is it possible to get rid of other symbols and leave only those that should be there?
