I apologize if this has been discussed but I did search with different words and was unable to find my answer. I was wondering if the voice search with keyboard apk on the Nexus 1 could be installed on Super D 1.7 or not. Is it possible or only on Eclair roms?? I really like that feature since I'm able to send text messages when not able to use both hands. I know I can always change to an Eclair rom but I'm really satisfied with Super D's rom and after trying almost all Eclair roms I would rather wait a little bit more until they get better. Any help is appreciated and thank you all in advance.
Hi all,
I want to start by saying that this forum has been very helpful to my in customising my GT-I9000, and I want to thank you all for this help. I have had a Galaxy S for about a week and I am really liking the flexibility of this phone. But without your efforts, there would not be near as much flexibility.
So I have a question about language support across different firmwares. It requires a little explanation, so I apologies in advance if it is a bit too much text. I use linux a fair bit, but I am new to Android so I dont know many of the details of the system yet. I am a n00b, however, I want to show that I actually put effort into what I want to do instead of just asking for someone else to do it for me from the beginning.
I would like to have the ability to send SMS in Hebrew from the SGS native messaging software. I find no problem inputting in Hebrew using various Keyboards such as AnySoftKey. However, the sms is received as a series of question marks. I guess it is a lack of character support, probably somewhere between typing the text in Hebrew, and the phone transmitting it across the networks.
I could install a firmware from an Israeli network as they have Hebrew input on their firmware versions. However, these are not very up-to-date and I would rather use a newer firmware (I have JPX with Darky's Gingerbread 6.0 mod, which is very up-to-date ).
I want to take it step by step, so I think I should start with the Keyboard input.
AnySoftKeboard works well for Hebrew input, and the text it makes works in all apps except the Messaging app (although it looks just fine on my side). But Perhaps the Samsung Keyboard would work?
I have looked at this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=796854
It describes methods of porting Keyboards from one firmware version to another. This is specific to porting the Eclair keyboard to Froyo.
So I tried to apply this logic to my needs. But I have difficulties knowing which firmwares have Hebrew language input support, yet alone a keyboard that is compatible with JPX. I tried with the keyboard from firmware I9000JHJP8 (only one I am sure has Hebrew support), but the porting following the instructions in the thread did not work. I am sure with some trial an error (and probably lots and lots of error ) I would eventually be able to get it to work.
So before I start trying to get it to work, I would like to know if you think that changing the keyboard would make any difference, or, if the problem lays somewhere else?
Thanks in advance for the help.
Hey. I hate to bump this but its gone to many pages from the first.
I wont bump again as I guess there may be no answer for this question.
Still Should I bother trying to convert the keyboard as i suggested above?

I flashed the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1127249 and I love the increased battery life. But, one problem I've noticed is that when I have the samsung keyboard XT9 selected and when I'm typing in an email for some reason the first character of the word gets dropped. (eg. type "the" it puts in "he"). Sometimes it will do it in my SMS messages but not all the time. Also, if I chose the Android keyboard it doesn't have that problem but then again it doesn't have the XT9 feature. I like the XT9 features and think it must have something to do with that. Has anyone else experience this and/or know how I can fix this?
Thanks, in advance for any help or direction that you can give me.
If I turn off the XT9 predictive text under samsung keyboard then I don't have the problem I checked and it's the 2.3.3 samsung keyboard. But, I like the XT9 predictive text feature and find it odd that it only happens under the email program. Is there a way that I can reinstall this .apk?
Try out this keyboard. Personally, it's one of my favorites.

Thanks, Born but I'm not really looking for another keyboard option. I would like to fix the stock keyboard that I already like and used
I wonder if it has something to do with the mail client? Anyone else have this problem? Maybe I'm asking the wrong question. Is anyone else that has flashed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1127249 (I897UCKF1 Odin-1-Click Gingerbread 2.3.3 w/ Fugu Root) had any problems using the stock samsung keyboard along with the XT9 advance features in the stock email client? Please confirm that it's working for you or not. That will at least help me determine if it's a bad/bug in the ROM or something that I did in flashing it. Thanks, to all who answer!
Custom rom and use samsung keyboard
How to use samsung keyboard on my custom rom ? o_0
HELP ME !>.<
i use ics2 rom
I think that was one of my major problems with KF1 too. That, and my touchscreen sensitivity was really poor.
I too like the Samsung keyboard, and don't like the newer versions though. I think the best version of the Samsung keyboard came out of KH3, or KI2. I've had problems with the newer versions with auto-captitalization not working correctly. I always have to backspace after ending a sentence with a period to get the first letter of the next sentence to capitalize. Also even if I have next word prediction unchecked, it still tries to predict quite often.
Now that I think about it, I am pretty sure it was KH3, because that's the only 2.3.4 that I have.
I am using the ICS ROM from S.U.R.F.A.C.E. but the keyboard is bothering me.
Cant get used to it, its is only swype and no option for other.
Can I change this? Is there an .apk that I can install or is there an app I can use? I am used to Gingerbread keyboard, no swype, just normal.
Big thanks in advanced!
hi, im new here, i'm looking for samsung keypad for CM9 does anybody knows if this exist at all, i've been looking for it, no luck i hope someone can help me with this.
You mean like a bluetooth keyboard case? It may exist but nothing comes to mind. If you mean a full sized keyboard just hook it up via bluetooth, or USB with an adapter for the port. Then just change to USB host mode. That's what I used to do for my tablet at least.
this one
i'm saying this one, it does not come with cyanogen 9, the pic is here if anyone know anything please help me
Not sure, sorry, kind of looks like swift key from what I remember. I like the JB keyboard, any reason you're still on cm9? Just curious.
But if anyone knows what keyboard that is feel free to chime in
there's no particular reaseon but, if i change to cm10 then is there a way to put samskung sotck keyboard?
Changing ROMs shouldn't make a difference whether you can install a keyboard or not, you'd still have to find it. I just don't see the point in running an outdated version of android when the Captivate can run JB very well.
Is there any reason you want the Stock keyboard other than looks?
i already have have CM10.1 with android 4.2.2, so how do i install the samsung keyboard on it?

yes there's a reason, my fingers write better on this keyboard, android keyboard is smaller than stock samsung keyboard.
You have to find it and install it. I'm not sure what it would be called or if you could simply extract it from the Stock ROM.
But can you answer my question from the previous post? I'm only asking because there are a lot of better keyboards out there.
EDIT: Ah understood, sorry post timing was off. Have you tried Swift Key? I just don't know exactly where to get the keyboard you're looking for.

Sure thing, sorry SwiftKey didn't workout well for you. If I find anything close to the Samsung Keyboard I'll shoot you a PM or post it here.

Try Smart Keyboard. The keys are larger just like in Samsung keyboard, it supports themes and is very feature rich. You may configure it to look and act like Samsung keyboard. Supports many languages + downloadable predictive text dictionaries. This is what I use. I don't like default Android keyboard either. Trial version is available too.
I have tried Swiftkey and Swype and personally prefer Swype myself. Swiftkey didn't seem nearly as accurate on their swiping.
