you do not need to remove the stock samsung keyboard.
Download this to you pc, unzip it. Copy both files to your device.
At your device go to the folder where you copied the to files, install them both.
Go to settings -> Locale and text -> check HTC_IME mod is selected.
Now go into some application where you can write somethins, for example sms. Touch the writing filed and hold it until a menue pop´s up, touch "Input method" and now select HTC_Ime mod.
Done.

They should mod this so you can still keep the samsung keyboard

Thank you very much, very helpful

Not everyones native language is english, german or french ;-)

I don't know which ROMs you use but Swype on my phone has just about every european language you can look for.

That's just not true for my device. There is no bulgarian, no slovenian no serbian for example.
Using jg1.
Bulgaria and slovenia are even in the european union.

I love the HTC keyboard, it is so much better than the Samsung one, also I used swype for about a week and I just didn't see the big advantage but that's just my opinion.

Swype I find awful, I've given it some time but it's so restrictive especially when dealing with URLs and email address etc

I've heard that this should be better since it has the multitouch thing where you can hold one button (letter) down and still type.

I have just tested this droid keyboard and it is much better than htc becouse of multitouch support. Too bad its doesnt have my national letters included so i cant use it.

Has anyone noticed that the built-in samsung keyboard also has multi-touch? Press down a letter, and you can still type. It doesn't seem to work for Shift + a key, but it is still multi-touch

I've been using the vlingo keyboard and I like it a lot.

Yeah that's true but all other keyboards are just as bad for that so I don't see why that little inconvenience should rob you of the great experience swype gives for all other purposes.

Yes, I have noticed this... but shift+letter works for me, too!

how bout smart keyboard?

True, but it works for one letter only; so you can't press shift to type a whole word like you can on the Droid X keyboard.

Sorry if this is in the wrong place. (REQUEST)

Hi,
This looks like a very helpful website and I have a tricky objective that I wondered if anyone here could help me with.
My wife bought a Note 4 (N910G) and she would really like to have a few options that aren't available on the stock Telstra firmware.
She is Japanese and would really like to have the stock dictionary from a Japanese note 4.
and also the Japanese language isn't available on the default N910G
Is this the place I can request help with things like this?
or is there a place I can request custom roms?
or is there a place I can learn to take bits and pieces from other firmwares?
I started a tutorial but I can'T find the firmware for the Japanese release note4.
and I don't know where to even start.
Is there even a way to just add more languages to the default phone language dictionary ?
I'm sorry if this isn't in the correct forum, I'm off to search a bit more.
on a side note I also have a note 4 N910U and that actually has the japanese language available by default but does not have English to Japanese dictionary by default.
The dictionary I am referring to is the one that pops up when you highlight things in the default samsung browser and such.
Thanks again for any help

Thanks for that suggestion.
I didn't know I could do that.
it helped change the default language, but I allready loaded a Rom that had Japanese enabled so that wasn't/isn't the problem I am trying to solve now.
All I want to be able to do now is highlight something and use the default samsung dictionary to look up words in Japanese and translate them both ways. eng-jp and jp-eng
also the auto correct is crazy bad.
if a word is typed in Japanese the suggested words are often wrong and if a mistake is made it doesn't fix it,
hard to explain but my wife really can't use this phone the way it is.
Is there a way to get the full Japanese firmware and flash it onto the n910g? or N910U?

I searched, but no luck. I think there is no way to flash offical japanes firm for 910g or 910u coz japan model has different model number. The other things i cant help you.

Yeh I can't even find the firmware for the Japanese models on sammobile..
its really annoying. I wish I had the time to learn how to take firmwares apart and take the bits and pieces from one and move them to something useful.
I started trying to learn but considering I rooted my first android less than 24 hours ago, its a bit daunting still.
maybe another region has the Full English to Japanese dictionary built in to the firmware?
Brazil has quite a large Japanese speaking community.
its not that I really need the dictionary. its that if I know the firmware has that dictionary built in then I know it can be used to type and auto correct properly.
also if this all doesn't work. do I have to mention that a phone has been rooted when I sell it?

I found the problem... in japan offical only just the note edge realised.
Try search sc-01G firmware, download it and extract/copy what you need i think its a working way coz the note edge has a very similar libs.
And yes when you sell your note 4 they see it rooted before, but in my country the rooted note 4 has the absolute similar price then non rooted.
Sorry my bad english its not my native language and i dont use so much.
Edit: s translator from galaxy app market has jap-eng and eng-jap.

thats a cool translator thanks. The awesome thing about the built in dictionary is that it doesn't use data when translating.
I appreciate your help, So I will get the note edge firmware and then
I'll have a look at that firmware but I have no clue how to extract the dictionary and files i need.
does anyone know What I need to extract and how to go about doing it?
seems like I'd have trouble figuring out where on the Edge firmware I would find what I want.
but I guess after that I could just copy it to the same place in the N910G firmware..
but then do I need to change some other string or something so it knows it is there?
I just know someone here could do this sort of thing before their morning coffee, please let them read this.

Bixby voice

Hello guys... I asked this question, but no one answered, I have Note8... is it possible to activate bixby voice without root ? ( Russian firmware )

As far as I am aware Bixby is in the firmware that comes with the Note 8 so it should already be there!

You have to go on Bixby screen then in parameter and put on the Bixby Voice.

Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

I think it Is available, but it is only available in Korean, and English. So, I'm guessing that may be you have to have your phone's default language set to English or korean for it work?? Did you try pressing the Bixby button to see what happens? Usually if you hold the button it Listens to your voice and should respond to your question, or command.

Yes my friend, my default language is English ( us ) tried everything, reset cache, use vpn, but no results, I eant that damn Bixby voice

Bixby Voice doesn't work for me yet, either. I've done the same as others. (Update, Clear Cache and delete data in storage. Factory Reset, etc.)
I'm using US English on a Japanese Note 8 in Japan. It's fun trying and anticipating that it will eventually work, though.. fingers crossed.

Hmm! Maybe it goes deeper then, and is in the version of firmware you have. I wish I could help you more, because Ian really loving bixby So far.

I have same problem on s8 in Georgia. When i asked about this to samsung they told that there is issue in this region and they are working on it and it will be fixed soon. How many months are meant in "soon"?

Had any luck with it yet? "Official" samsung phones for Georgia are all sold with Russian firmware version (big bull**** if you ask me), but those that are not official (ones Zoomer sells) are different and my friend has a note 8 bought from there and everything works - even bixby voice.
it's spring 2018 already and saw somewhere on samsungs official site that Russia is yet to be one of those 200 countries bixby is available in (Georgia is nowhere to be found sadly).
the hell samsung?

Hi guys,
Are you also missing the ability to disable the Bixby button? I just picked up a Galaxy S9+ in the Czech Republic, and my Bixby settings look exactly like yours (no mention of voice - holding the button down does absolutely nothing). I actually wanted to disable the button completely but there's no option to do so.
Thanks!

yeah, you are right we are from the same Country and its easier to write in my mother tongue. i just said that i have the same problem with my note 8. when i bought it there was bixby voice but after factory reset (which i did because of other problem) it just disappeared. and asked him if he knew other options to return bixby. i dont know what the firmware region is and how to change it i dont even know how to root my phone. guess i will just wait. bixby home sucks btw.

Cheers mate, happy to help... On Global, mate.. stock nubia, NX629J_V1S_ENCommon_V2.14
Only use stock (and super old) Nubia rom for the sake of RedMagicTime for PUBG clips. And since PUBGM update 1.2 (now PUBGM on 1.3 version) RedMagicTime stop working properly.. well, RedMagicTime still working if we change phone and PUBGM language to traditional Chinese, it's annoying, but clearly better than nothing...
I know right from the get-go this phone is too good to be true.. cheap as hell, with the top tier hardware on papers (at that time) with interesting features (RedMagicTime).
I know there's a price we'll have to pay, just don't know that price is no updates (almost) at all for this phone... Just like my nickname, nubia development team is sucks, they abandoned the customers, move on to next projects and don't care at all for after sales.. sorry for long non sense rants

Question Bought an Vivo X90 Pro+ first things to do?

Hello,
I bought an Vivo X90 Pro+ and i notice something there are many apps on chinese and i dont want them but how i can uninstall them? since i only understand german and english i dont know what these apps are doing and i dont want them on my phone
then a other problem is it possible to use a german keyboard on the phone? my current keyboard is on english and i understand it but there are some chinese buttons i dont want cause i dont understand what they are saying on it. in german we use Ü,Ä,Ö but i cant find it on the keyboard ):
Thanks for Help.

Simply long press the apps and choose 'uninstall'. You could move the remaining apps that you do not plan on using to an inconspicuous folder. They can also be forcefully uninstalled using ADB but I would not recommend it.
You can install an alternative keyboard such as SwiftKey or Gboard. Both of these should support German. Alternative keyboards can be set as default from the permission settings.

You cannot change to Funtouch. And there are some indications that adb will be more restricted from removing apps from the next major update (the one with camera demo x mode), meaning you can still remove apps that you could remove via app manager but many others will be blocked. Also since last update already they kill shizuku from time to time so cannot freeze apps.
