Is there any possible way to add or install extra input language?
My situation is that I bought Samsung i9000 here in the UK and I would like to have the Chinese input option.
Surprised that this hasn't been answered yet. I know that there are apps on the market that do this, but surely if we can just figure out which apk files are responsible for the keyboard, we can just transfer it from a Chiense ROM.
So the question is, does anyone know which files are responsible for the Chinese keyboard?
edit:
Found out which apk is responsible for the Chinese keyboard: ChineseIMETutorial.apk
I read some other thread on the theme and app section, and it seems like there should also be a couple of related lib files.

But those files do not exist on my phone. Searching for the keyboard "CN" in my lib file turns up nothing useful.
Bump. Surely someone must know the answer.

I am using Captivate in the U.S. and I want to use original Korean keyboard provided with Galaxy S M110S (korean released version). Do you guys know how I can get this apk file for my captivate?
because korean keyboards in market seems not good to me.
Original one offers Chun Ji In (one of best input methods for korean language) and does not contain many errors like something uploaded at market.
I have the Korean, I'll look into extracting the apk if I can and search a bit if it's available elsewhere.
However, I didn't like the Samsung keyboard since it didn't have autocorrect in English (maybe not important to you?). I tried, and really liked, neostylo5 Korean 2.0 offered by NeoMobile. I think it was easier to make corrections in both English and Korean, also, they will update to allow a Korean Swype in the future.
Please try it and let me know what you think.
They do say it's still in beta, but it's really bug-ridden. Keep on crashing and forceclosing. I hope they fix the issues soon.
Hi,
I'm wondering, were you able to successfully extract the apk? I'ld love to be able to try out but I don't see a link to download it anywhere.
Thanx
Hi guys,
Maybe I missed something but after few searches I couldnt find an answer.
Is there any way to get Romanian language prediction in Swype?
Maybe a CSC change or.. install a different version of swype from another ROM..?
I have an idea but not sure about the correct way to follow.
Can someone give me a hint?
Thanks a bunch!
Hope this helps!
It has all languages!

The file is gone. Any update?
Hey Cezar,
If you still need Romanian language support for your Android phone I can give you step-by-step instructions. Let me know.

Can I get the file even if I'm not Cezar? I need the Romanian dictionary. The auto-correct crap to pop Romanian words.
Install new Swype (even on phones with Swype preinstalled)
1. Go to http://beta.swype.com/ and register in order to download the latest beta. (it works just fine)
2. Although they caution that if you had Swype preinstalled this will not work, there is an elegant work around.
a. If this is your case (most Samsung phone do come with Swype preinstalled) you need to have your phone rooted and Titanium backup installed
b. Freeze the original, preinstalled version of Swype with TB and reboot the phone
3. Install the Swype installer you’ve got using the method suggested above and follow the instructions. Once installed, Android sees the new Swype as an update to the original version.
4. Go to Swype settings and download whatever dictionary you wish (including Romanian and many, many others) - this is actually the main (and I should say very important) difference between the stock / after-market versions of Swype - the first comes with only a few pre-installed dictionaries without the ability to expand, while the latter offers a lot more choices and the versatility of downloading/installing the language(s) of choice.
That’s it. It works like a charm and the Romanian dictionary is quite comprehensive – although it takes some practice in using the diacritics (you have to swipe through the “-“ sign for l-au, m-au, etc.)
Thank you very much. I was able to update & to install Romanian. It works pretty nice.
Hello,
I'm a little bit new in changing system applications, but hope can do anything...
Could anybody help me in it, how can I change the default Samsung keyboard (and of course user dictionary...) with one other Samsung keyboard?
The situation is that I have both Galaxy Tab and Galaxy S as original with XW... ROMs. These XW ROMs has Hungarian T9 with built in and user dictionary, as original Samsung keyboards on the devices. As I always like to try every new thingies, both devices has the latest ROMs on it but as you know these are on both of it just XX... ROMs (XX and XW both are European ROMs, but XW has Hungarian T9 and XX has not.)
I thought that I can change the default Samsung keyboard, directly ripped from any same type XW ROMs without problems but in the real practice I have not success.
For example. I use currently JPY on Galaxy S, but have the latest available XWJPB ROM also. I mount that and ripped of:
- AxT9IME apk/odex
- UserDictionaryProvider apk/odex
- libXt9core
(not sure that these are what I need but seems like)
I simply overwrited with these files the original ones (in currently used JPY), made the permissions into 777, and reboot. I thought this solution must work, but not
Now I have just my 'externally' installed original Swype beta (after I deleted the originals...), and the Samsung keyboard is nowhere. This is not a real problem as I would like to use Samsung keyboard over Swype just in case if I could reach Hungarian T9 with it.
So could anybody help me how can I make this step? Is it possible? What was my mistake?
(of course the source XW keyboard files was also Froyo files not Eclair...)
Very lot of thanks in advanced!!!
eboIa, I deleted the duplicate thread you posted in the dev section, this Q&A section is the proper place for requests such as this
Thanks, and sorry for it! Btw could anybody help me in it?
would be good to know.. I'm trying to do the same, but with Swedish/Croatian that worked with my original but not on th ROM I use.
I think that we maybe need just deodexed version of stock keyboard from the correct language version ROM, then rip the wrong one and put this inside of the currently used system. But this is just my though about it. If anybody can help me, or just tell me the truth, please do it.
There is one topic about it, but I need the solution to make it onto my Galaxy Tab also...

Hi Guys,
ive started to translate MIUI to my own language norwegian,
i am using apktool to decode and compile the apk's
creating a new dic called values-no and place my own strings in there.
everything seems fine, i use root explorer to place my apk's in the system/app/ dic reboots my phone and absolutely nothing happends!
(I've even checked on settings -> system -> language & input settings.
i think i must be missing something crucial!
please help, i understand english well and have no problem with it really, but it would be cool to finnish it and make it happend.
I figured that my lang prefix must be wrong, stumbled upon it when i installed ubuntu yesterday.
Going to try 'nb-no' instead of 'no' tonight
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Nobody seems to care, but if someone should care for future referanse the name should be "values-nb"

No one may have responded, but don't take that as a sign that no one cares. Someone, somewhere, will eventually stumble upon this thread looking for an answer to something you already know. I always suggest to post a fix for a question you asked. It'll help someone out eventually.
hehe, yeah thats why i postet it too.
and a tips: if you are working on translating an apk, and your'e not sure wich prefix you should use on values-xx simply decode Vending.apk(Market)(or another apk you know to contain your language) go into \res\ and you will find a values-xx folder with your language.
Hi,
Manage to come across your post... Did you finally make it? I'm also translating miui for my phone, in my language, i tested translating the mms.apk. However i didn't seem to see the changes.
How do you add your language as a separate language in the settings menu? Cause what I'm doing is changing the /values which shows the changes, but what i really want to do is a separate /values-xx so that i can go back and forth to the default and my own language.
Hope you could help. Thanks in advance.
Hi
Norwegian is in the Language pack?
Heya there,
I am mostly wondering if anyone can help me by clear instruction on adding some input languages, so that I can have them in "swipe the space bar" function. As a matter of fact, I need to add chinese, but somehow my phone, though it has chinese as the interface language, doesn't have chinese as input language.

1st root ur phone then paste apk file to the system app folder n give permission n paste the other file to system lib give permission will do！
reboot done！http://pan.baidu.com/share/link?shareid=505306&uk=1679498417
I don't think the stock Android Keyboard supports Chinese. Samsung does provide their own Chinese input method which is separate from their regular input method. IMO the Samsung Chinese input isn't that good. You should try the Google Pinyin IME, it supports pinyin/stroke/handwritting input, trad/simp chinese. I think it's a great keyboard.

But some of other handheld do have the chinese as their input. Seeing from how they just swipe their space bar to change their input, thus voila... They can have pinyin as their method of input. I still keep wondering on the method in adding the languages.
