I'm not sure about Hebrew locale, but Hebrew language works for me. I use it all the time. In terms of Locale, it's even possible that Android 2.2 supports it, but T-mobile removed it. Either way, I have never heard of supporting Hebrew as a locale, only making Hebrew text readable, which it does well.

You can see on wikipedia that 2.2 contains hebrew locale
also I had an HTC Hero with 2.2 that had a hebrew locale
there are difference between displaying hebrew and having a locale
for example - when having a locale the contact list is sorted via the hebrew "abc" and you can use the bar on the right side to navigate
the calendar and gmail captions aren't inverted when having a locale... etc'

Does it display Hebrew properly? Arabic is broken in Froyo, The letters aren't connected, which obviously isn't an issue in Hebrew, but the letters are also displayed in the wrong order.
edit: Just took a look and it seems to render Hebrew perfectly.

HERO and multilanguage

Hi!
I`ve got new Hero(official in Latvia), but it has some limitation to Poland/Romanian language. I wont to use it with EN interface including deal pad and English/Russian keyboard.
I was trying to set custom Local to RU, but is changing Interface to Russian. Is there any solution for setting interface and keyboard to different languages ?
PS may be there is some kind of en_RU locale ?
Thank you.
Same problem here. The only way to make TouchInput to support Russian is to switch to Russian locale which has Russian UI. I've seen many posts, were people asking how they can have bilingual keyboard, while keeping UI in English.
en_RU locale would be ideal, but MoreLocale doesn't show it.
Also, I've seen TouchInput apk (HTC_IME) available to download, but it seems to be English only.
If anybody has a solution to this - please help!

Local and keyboard

Hello,
with the new available ROM it is possible to change the phone language which is very cool.
What i am after is having the phone in English, but the keyboard in Norwegian and T9 (Or whatever it is called, word suggestion) in English and Norwegian.
Is this possible?
TX
Thread moved, please post in proper forum & thread cleaned
I'm actually curious about the same thing - I'd like to keep the English interface and be able to use Polish keyboard. AFAIK MoreLocale2 doesn't solve the problem.

[Q] Linking Switching Keyboard Language and Voice Recognition Language

Just installed deodexed "stock" XXKI4 from this thread, and was unpleasantly surprised that automatic voice recognition switching for Czech and Russian languages is gone. I thought stock ROM should have it. I had stock XXKI3 prior to this.
I mean, when I change the language to, say, Czech, in the keyboard, and press the microphone button, it only recognizes English. Same for Russian.
The languages are there, however.
In stock XXKI3 it all worked just fine. When I selected Czech, and pressed the mike button, it understood vocal Czech, and the same goes for English, and Russian.
Does any one know how to link the switching of the language in the keyboard with switching the language in voice recognition?
Or, simply put, how to fix this?
Many thanks!

[Q] input language

From what I understood back before ICS there was no way to add another input language dictionary to an already compiled version of android on a phone. So most keyboards with multilingual support have separate language packs which can be downloaded optionally. However, this means you had to choose to use a keyboard other than the built in Android keyboard.
Now that ICS is out I flashed it on my Nexus S and noticed there are add-on dictionaries in the Language & input setting in Android Keyboard under "Keyboard & Input Methods" (click the 3 sliders to your right) and then towards the bottom under "Text correction" clicking on add-on dictionaries brings up a page with all available. Some are installed and some can be installed. Unfortunately none with the language I want.
So My question is, how do I add another add-on dictionary and has this issue been fixed in the new Android ICS 4.0?
Here is some additional info I found over the months of FroYo and GB input language dictionary issue:

Here is the exact keyboard but with some additional language packs which, unlike Google's, can be added later:

Anyone? Bump...
Anyone? Bueller?

This is very interesting for me too. I don't see Norwegian in the list, but I'm hoping once the Galaxy Nexus is released in Norway, the add-on dictionary will pop up in that list
I have a UK Galaxy Nexus, but this would also be interesting for everyone on custom roms who would like to use the standard keyboard and who are not writing in english.
+1 for this message.
Portuguese appears on the list, but there's no dictionary available for download.
+1 for this. I have the same problem on my Galaxy Nexus. There is a refresh button on the dictionary list so maybe Google will eventually add it but nothing so far.
Wait. So Android 4.0, the newest bestest Android version ever...
Is just for English users. Seriously?
I just thought/assumed it was a shortcoming in the current experimental builds I was running. This makes me seriously reconsider putting money into the Galaxy Nexus.

NO.
Currently the system KEYBOARD have: english, Cestina, Nederlands, Francais, Deutsch, Italiano, Russian and Espanol.
and we're awaiting more to come as it checks online for more dictionaries downloads.
But is it going to be possible to set the phone language to English, but set the language for spelling correction to Dutch? I know you can set the keyboard language to Dutch and install the Dutch dictionary but that only show correction suggestions in the bar above the keys and not if you touch the word. So now every Dutch word I type gets underlined even though I've set the keyboard language to Dutch. It doesn't do that if I set the system language to Dutch.

4.0.3 is supposed to be the "baseline" release of ICS, according to JBQ from Google.
The source is now available and so is some unofficial builds.
Has anyone checked them out to see if they include anything new in this regard?

Running aosp 41 which is great but nothing more other than what was already mentioned in add-on dictionaries. I assume it could be included in the ROM when compiling bu tthe developer has not answered my question on this yet. You could probably just compile the keyboard apk and replace the default. I know this was possible on GB because CyanogenMod 7 initially had about 100 dictionaries for the HeroC but sometime down the road it was cut out from the build to save space.
Is there any new news of how to add dictionary to Android ICS??
Bump.
Anyone solved this?
I've been trying to solve this weird problem since I started using android.. Not that i really miss the feature, but just because I can't stand it not being solved.
I use a USA (Verizon) droid 3 in the Netherlands. I used morelocale2 to set it to country: the Netherlands and language: English because by default I can only choose English and Spanish. With morelocale it works fine.
When I press the mic key in my homescreen, it uses dutch voice recognition (which works flawlessly btw). But when I want to use this voice recognition in any other app, it says "voice dictation does not support current language". When I change the input language under multi-touch keyboard settings to English, it will English voice.
I don't understand why it says it doesn't support it!! It DOES, as I can use it in the homescreen without any problems!
Thanks
This has not been fixed in Jelly Bean either.
Text correction is just available in a few, select languages. Availability of languages doesn't seem very improved since ICS, but the list has gotten a little longer.
It seems absurd though, that we should not be able to add our own dictionaries.

But other phones in my country that are "native" European phones can use voice dictation in all apps.
For me it doesn't work, even though it works in my home screen. There must be something I can change..
Can't load English UK dictionary
I have an excellent 5.7" MT6589 device known as STAR or BLUEBO B6000. I can set the system language to English UK and select the additional English UK dictionary and it says it's downloading but it never seems to load and the keyboard spell checker thinks that every word is wrong. This seems to be an issue with a few of the available ROMs, mostly based on 4.1.1. Any suggestions.

I've contacted the company, they said that they're working on it. and there's still not support, I've been searching for it since for ever but still not supported :crying:
Hi,
Set your smartphone to Hebrew/Arabic and let the watch update itself.

Yes i also have contacted the amazfit service and got the same answer. Im searching for an external rom that includes supported notifications arabic or hebrew.
Hi.
If you’re using an IPhone you can change the amazfit app language only. Go to settings scroll down find the amazfit app, on the bottom you will find Preferred Language select the language you want the app on it. and you can keep the iPhone language without changing it.
Hii,
Thanks but i have andoid phone not iphone.
