Thanks for your response Roy. I have previously tried Google IME and too bad it doesn't support Traditional Chinese (yet) :-(

I downloaded JF4_v4_1.zip, extracted the following files and libraries and copied them to /system/app and /system/lib accordingly:
DioChineseIME.apk
libKeyboardCN.so
libDHWRCN.so
libRecomWord.so
And.... it works!!! Only downside is: it's Simplified Chinese but I want Traditional Chinese. Is there Taiwanese version of it? It seems to me that Singapore is using Simplified Chinese and Taiwan is the only country in the world to use Traditional Chinese. It looks so much more beautiful! Can someone please help me with that? Your support is very much appreciated!!

Ah, so Traditional Chinese is now supported in the new version. Too bad because I am now addicted to DioPen, with both PinYin and Stroke input. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I will keep Google PinYin for a while until I can find the Traditional Chinese for DioPen.

Please, anyone from Taiwan here who owns a Samsung Galaxy S? I want to have Traditional Chinese support in DioPen! Please anyone? Thanks in advance!

Not true, Malaysia uses traditional Chinese, and also Hong Kong SAR too.
Also Google PinYin supports Traditional Chinese both pinyin and stroke. As mentioned by Roy Ngan, once you checked on Google PinYin, below that go to the Google PinYin and check traditional chinese.
Just check out the settings.

Hi anyone already flashed this FW? Can somebody tell me if it has DioPen with Traditional Chinese? I installed DioPen on my European FW but too bad I got a simplified Chinese version. I really need the Traditional one... please, who can help me out? I am at the verge of installing this FW on my Samsung Galaxy S european version but am reluctant since I don't know what hardware differences are there? Is it safe to do?

Hi g00ndu, I'm sorry but what did you mean? I have Google PinYin installed with Traditional Chinese but I prefer the DioPen method. I can write Chinese in a box instead of choosing the strokes in Google PinYin... if I have offended you in any way please forgive me

You can try touchpal, very powerful chinese ime

If you among those having an Xperia Pro with a slide-out hardware keyboard, and you have recently flashed a new ROM on your phone which messed-up the keyboard layout, then you have come to the right place.
Xperia Pro (and other Pro devices of Xperia range) has 14 different key layouts as mentioned on this page. I am releasing a specific update.zip file for each of the 14 different key layouts. Flash the relevant zip for your phone and your hardware keyboard should start working as it should.
To find out which layout is your phone keyboard, go to this page.
If you are unsure about the relevant key layout for your phone, then there is always the tedious option of flashing each update.zip and seeing if it works.
Note 1: I am only releasing 10 keyboard layouts now. I shall release the rest when I get some time to figure it out.
Note 2: This is for Xperia Pro, but might work in other Pro devices of Xperia range. Please confirm if anyone gets it to work on any other Pro devices.
Note 3: If any of the below does not work in your phone or you phone has a different layout than the below, please help me to get it fixed by sending me a PM.
Requirements
1. CWM recovery installed (or root if you are copying files manually).
Installation
1. Download and copy zip file to SD card
2. Reboot into recovery
3. Choose install zip from SD card, select zip and flash .
4. Reboot!

Technical Details about Key Mapping and Key Layouts
I shall be updating this post with some technical details, when I get time. For the time being, below are some useful resources.
Resources and technical details:
Keyboard Devices
Key Layout Files
Key Character Map Files
Binary KCM Files (prior to Android 3.0)
In addition to the above keyboard mappings from Android, Sony (Ericsson) uses a different method for key mapping which is clearly described here:

Not only root access, but a way to boot CWM.
While on recovery, select "Install zip from SD Card", then "Choose zip from sdcard" then you select the file of the keyboard layout you downloaded.
Reboot your device and it should be running correctly.

THANKS
My friend ameer thank you for your work.
I am for try. In a few moments you tell.

Someone said the difference between African and European releases is that in the African firmware @ goes to the right side of space, in European it goes to the left. I have annoying problem that 3rd party keyboards do not work properly with the hw keyboard. Ill give a try to the African fw, perhaps it'll indeed make the hw keyboard behave outside xperia kb.. Swedish/Finnish firmware would be perfect for experiment.

Wait a second.. These are the same .kcm and .kl files I was discussing over here .. These files do not change the keyprint.xml? Then it won't work.
I'm not sure if you're supposed to change
<Script name="latin" keylayout="qwerty"/>
to
<Script name="latin" keylayout="arabic"/>
but it probably would work with the xperia keyboard.
And with regards to those .kcm/.kl files, at least the finnish/swedish variant messes up the HW keyboard. Specifically wrong special keys, no öäå. At least this happens if you have set the keyprint.xml to use qwerty-se-fi

[q] tts menu/alter system voice

Anyone know of a hidden menu or app that can provide access to the KFTT's TTS/voice settings? I'd like to change the system voice. Tried an app called TTS SETTINGS EXTENDER that either froze or fc'd.

I have the same problem. As I'm spanish I want the kindle to read in my lenguage, but the only way is to rename the Ivona.tts.apk to Ivona.tts.apk.bak in the system/app folder. This makes Pico tts the default engine, that has multilenguage capabilities, but its pronunciatión is awfull and robotic.
In the course of my research I accidentally deleted vox_en_us_salli22i (in system / tts / ivona). Could you bring a copy?

there's a paid app called Andy which uses the Ivonas tts engine. It allows you to change the voice of your tts. my kindle speaks in British accent...:good:

Looks like MY problem might be related to yours: I'm missing that file. And here I thought I was being careful. I ran up thr REQUEST banner on a post. If I get it, so will you. The joys of tinkering...

Okay Belasco. I'll wait.
.
On the other side I've tryed the Andy app that is mentioned earlier, but it only lets to modify the TTS engine, not the languaje as the program is English for an all English world (or it is assumed). I need Ivona Spanish and it was not of aid.

Trying to attach - too big for XDA's rules. I got it by changing the 7.2.3 bin update to an apk (rename extention) then viewing the apk. Alternatives to get it to you?

OK Belasco, Thanks. Now I Know where to find the archive.

Hi, i installed the GingedDX on my X8 yesterday, and it does not contain "Google Play" (bad), So i downloaded it by myself.

When i try to add an account through the "Account & Sync" setting, the system falls down and rebbot itself.
Please help me, i realy need to download some apps.

I need to install Hebrew language on my device.
Not ever what i do: installed anysoftkey with it's add-ons, installed morelocal2 and i also defined my keboard to "anysoftkey" and my system language to"morelocal2" it just refuse to show me hebrew...
Wher ever it supposes to show hebrew words it shows " " (empty chars...).
I just cannot see hebrew... not in the internet explorer, not at massages and not at my system.
Please, i can't use it with no hebrew.

If you want to add the language just to the keyboard I can help you, but to add it in the rom...sorry I don't know how,I never needed it, use google for more info
Edit:now that I am thinking about it, for the keyboard you can download one from play store that has the option to download languages...like go keyboard

I've written an application for such translating xml files, you can use it to translate xml file in one click.
Steps:
Select xml file (e.g. Strings.xml)
Select source language (e.g. cn for chinese)
Select target language (e.g. en for english)
Click translate menu item
It may take several minutes depending on source length
A new file with translated text will be created in source location with new keyword in file name.
Optionally, you can exclude words and patterns using regex.
Hope this will help many people on Xda. I'm not registered as developer here, pls some one post it as a thread with credits. Thanks in advance.

Dear these are the translations to leading foreign text. Copy and try it in translate.google.com and see it.
If the process is stuck on certain translation; copy the left hand foreign text (in your case chinese characters) and add it to exclude list.
Hope this answers your question.
