I tried to get some responses in another thread but didn't get much response. I got one confirmation from another user that he experienced the same. On the new JP6 firmware, there is a bug in swype, specifically in the Norwegian dictionary.
THIS ERROR WAS INTRODUCED IN JP6/JPM, or perhaps an earlier froyo release. I have found it in both JP6 and JPA.
Here's what I wrote:
I see that you are Norwegian too. Can you help me check a potential Swype issue? Try to use swype (preferrably in the "Write and Go" app), and try to add the words "ej", "dej" or "mej" (they are dialect words for "jeg", "deg" and "meg"). I can't seem to add them even though other words work. Maybe I need another factory reset or reflash, if it turns out it works with you.
Edit: Use the norwegian dictionary for swype. If you don't know how to add words, you can either:
- Tap the words one letter at a time, then press space
- Tap all the words at once, select them and press the swype key (if the first does not work)
Edit2: The words I mentioned appear in other dictionaries like UK English and German, but not in the Norwegian dictionary.

As you can see, this question is mostly directed towards Norwegian people, but I guess other people can try to add the words and see if it is in their Norwegian dictionary still.
I have already reported the issue in the swype forums, but I want to make sure it's not just me (and that other guy).
Edit: Have confirmed this bug with both stock swype 2.6.47.11856 and with Swype 2.4.44.10814 (used a guide to change versions). I'm starting to think it is the rom that's causing it.
Anyone? Just try to add the words:
"ej"
"mej"
"dej"
to the Norwegian dictionary, to test if you can swype them after. I really want to confirm it so I can report it to swype developers.
Still hoping for some help here, guys.

Hi I want to buy a Touch Diamond 2 for brother in law who is Thai. He wants version that has Thai language.
Does anyone know which region version I should buy.
Normally, there is no any ROM that has Thai!
For Thai ROM is developed by Thai's web forum calls PDAMOBIZ.COM
But, it is still no ROM for Topaz, due to it very new.
However, if your brother in law can use english menu, there are some Thai company that sell Thai software calls ThaiWinCE and Thai-g (for me, now I recomended ThaiWinCE).
That you can buy from them via there homepage.
In the software, there will give you Thai input Keyboard, Thai Regional setting and make your WM phone able to read Thai.

There is also something called korechithai.cab that install thai fonts (and other south-eastern fonts I think) and basic WinMo thai input keyboard (to be used with a stylus, but it is better than nothing). I do not know if it is related to the ones mentioned in previous post (an earlier version maybe?), but afaik it is free, i did found it on Thai WinCE message boards. I installed it on my previous PDA, and re-installed it on my TD2. No compatibility issues, although the cab was for an earlier version of WinMo, it is still working nicely on 6.1 topaz...
It allows me to use free thai-english dictionary (there is also one hanging around, using the MDict engine), I will check during my next trip to thailand if it work for viewing thai characters in SMS in Touchflo and browse thai website...
But as the previous poster said, this will not change the WinMo menus, nor touchflo3D, not any pre-installed apps: those will remain in the language your Topaz came pre-installed with...which, in my case, is a blessing ;-)
Thanks for the replies.
I will try the korechithai.cab on my device later. If it is ok then I will just buy him a UK version.
I installed the korechithai.cab but now both my volume buttons & the call answer button no longer work.
Anyone have this problem & know how to fix it.

Strange, I installed it too and I do not have this problem...Have you soft resetted your TD2?
BTW, after expansion my korechithai gives different cab:
KbdChinese.cab
KbdKorean.cab
KbdThai.cab
korechithai4ppc.cab
SIPChange.cab
I installed korechithai4ppc.cab first (this gave the thai fonts, so I was already able to read thai words in my dictionary after this install)
then KbdThai.cab, this added the thai keyboard (classic WM keyboard format, so stylus-oriented, or can work with fingers...if you have very sharp nails ;-) )
I did not install SIPChange.cab, this one is not compatible with 6.1 (or so it says in the instruction). I think it is intended for deeper change (program shortcuts, maybe some OS messages or menus), things I had no intention to change anyway.
I you have installed SIPChange.cab, I suspect it is the origin of your problem. I would try to uninstall it, and if it does not work, only solution I see is a hard reset, then try the installation of korechithai4ppc.cab then KbdThai.cab only...

Is it possible to tell me where to download korechithai4ppc.cab of better still can you email it to me. I have tried but can't find it anywhere.
The korechithai.cab I downloaded from here http://my.opera.com/cameron_en/blog/2008/02/03/ime-complete-installation-files-download-section does not work properly.
For anyone who's interested I have found a fully compatible version of korenchithai4ppc.cab at this link http://sinocom.ru/index.php?topic=159.msg3006;topicseen as you can see it is in Russian but all you need do is scroll down approx 2/3rds of the thread & the link for rapidshare is there.
Just found an article (in Norwegian) about this application.
http://www.nuance.com/t9trace/
It's seems like a Swype competitor, but supports more languages, and to me, who needs Norwegian language input, it could be a better alternative.
Pictures show that Android platform is supported.
Couldn't find it in Marked, but the press release from 3 days ago may indicate that it will be available soon.

hmm seems like a good competitor for swype, i prefer their layout better than swypes.
Anyone would know where to find the .apk for T9 Trace ?
I asked for it on twitter and they told me it's not a software to download. It come with your phone or forget about it...
Almost looks like the SlideIt keyboard available on the market. That works great on my Nexus. I just wish I could long press keys for numbers or punctuation. I use that as Swype isn't available on the market and it works great.
Plus if you buy the full version, there are a lot of language dictionaries you can download for free to get support for the language.
http://www.cyrket.com/p/android/com.dasur.slideit/
Here is the list of all the languages:

Does it support Norwegian language and characters?
not sure actually would have to find out for yourself
i use en us
Still no way to get t9 trace ?
I am looking for the app on the market, the internet : nothing
any link to an apk ?
Its nearing a year....
No update about T9 trace... :-(
Definitely more then a year now, i cant find T9 trace anywhere, only old references to flex t9 which is trace but doesnt have the newer features that predict words like Swift key.
It really seems like good competition for the new Touchpal which swypes and predicts but just cant find it anywhere :-(
Hi,
I'm currently using the QND MIUI Rom from this thread on my N1:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1084726
I think this is a very nice ROM and jbbandos did a good job. But I have the following problem: I don't seem to have any dictionaries for the languages installed. I set my system language to German, but when I type I don't get any suggestions, except the names in my contact list.
Furthermore, no matter what language I choose, I always have a QWERTY keyboard although I'd rather want to have a QWERTZ keyboard.
Am I doing something wrong, or did I miss an important part? Before using this QND MIUI ROM, I used the RoDrIgUeZsTyLe ROM and when choosing the system language I could see below most of the languages "dictionary available", but this is not the case for this ROM.
What can I do?
I would have posted my question in the above mentioned thread, but due to my low post count I'm not allowed to post it there. Ridiculous, but okay....
Many thanks in advance for any help
Someone with the same qwertz problem got this answer.
@tommert38: Thanks for your answer. To workaround the problem I'm currently using the HTC IME keyboard, which is fine.
But I guess the problem is not supposed to exist, at least nobody complained so far in the "main thread". So either nobody needs those keyboard suggestions, or I must have done something wrong or missed an important setting.
Hi guys,
On an AOKP rom in Settings > Language & input > Android keyboard settings > Add-on dictionaries.
I can choose to install a Dutch dictionary. It downloads something, and says "installed".
However it doesn't do anything, the keyboard only auto-corrects words found in my contacts, so there is probably no, or an empty dictionary downloaded.
The pre-installed English dictionary works fine.
I really like the way auto-correction works on ICS, with the red underline to correct a word.
I'm using ICS keyboard from the market at the moment.
But I would really like to use the stock/built-in keyboard in my own language, because of the correction method.
Does anybody know a fix?
Does it work for Galaxy Nexus in dutch? Maybe we could port something.
Does anyone know where the dictionaries are downloaded from?
Where are they installed and what kind of file is it?
I really hope someone could give me some insight. I've Googled a bit and couldn't find anything.
Cheers,
Daan
edit:
Okay, I installed a stock Galaxy Nexus LatinIME.apk, works fine for now.
I should notice though that the spelling-checker does not work in dutch.
Auto-correct and spelling-check are two different things.
The first corrects mistakes while typing, the second underlines a mistyped word in red. So you can choose to correct it by clicking on it.
Spell-checker supports English, French, German, Italian, Spanish and Greek.
Auto-correct supports a lot of languages.
Hi all
I discovered that I have Swype now (not sure if I previosly had it). I know how to enable and use it, it's really nice with english!
But, a big but, my main language is Swiss German, this language does not have an official grammar and thus also no Swype support.
Is there now an easy way to switch between the two keyboards (Motorola default and swype) without always going into home - Settings - input language - and there set the default back to the default one?
I tried to long press space, but that only gives a Tab.
Thanks
Pato
Whenever you select a non default keyboard and begin typing, check your notifications. There will be a small keyboard icon. It allows you to change the keyboard used instantly

Also, if you just found Swype as an option on your phone then it's probably a pre-installed version.
If you search google for Swype Beta and sign up you can download their latest beta version (which is currently free) and this may support more languages.
I bet Swiss German will never come, simply because like every 50th person writes it differently
And big thanks for the pulldown tip, that works!
