well the subject says it all, i have the CH version of 2003 SE & i need the predictive keyboard MS uses, not anyother predictive keyboard is required except MS keyboard, i liked it too much
want chinese natural handwriting recognition, but don't have $1000 for a wacom cintiq graphics tablet? google to the rescue. This is another one of those "why didn't I think of it before?" things whose answer a couple years ago was simply because it wasn't possible nor practical.
I know, microsoft pocket pc has had the Transcriber function for over 10yrs, but the english version couldn't recognize chinese, and the asian ime cabs, well, the largest ones i could find had writing surfaces of about a square centimeter, try using that with a stylus! Almost as frustrating as using a regular wacom on a Windows onscreen Handwriting Recognition drawing pad, that is if you can manage to get it installed on windows.
Requirement:
1. Android Tablet or phone.
2. free gPen writing program from android market, plus Google PinYin IME,
3. Instant Message program of your choice
4. WiFi/internet
Maybe I couldn't find the answer because I can't write much chinese, don't use IM much, and until I got the 7" android tablet, only had the 1cm IME on my WinMo phone.
The free android market SCUT gPen program on the tablet gives you a 4"x4" writing area, can toggle to full screen if you like, and has very fast and accurate writing recognition. I'm using it with the Hanping Chinese Dictionary for offline chinese learning
As for IM, i tried skype (too big), Evernote(60mb limit), DropBox(no IM), Fring(no pc, huh?), YahooMessenger(delay/offline issues), LiveMessenger(delay/offline issues), finally settling with Palringo, which works pretty fast on both android and PC. When I finish a sentence on my tablet, I right click on PC to copy to clipboard, and paste whereever i want.
So, my current setup involves, Palringo IM(free), 7"dellStreak(refurb under $100-$200), gPen (free), and Wifi. I suppose the cheaper ePad ($70 Android ipad on ebay) would work too... hell, even if only using my HD2, this combo is still way better than any PenPower or Wacom Graphics Tablet out there just for chinese handwriting.
I'm still a noob with regards to android and IM in general, since I'm still dualbooting the HD2 (90% on WM6.5). So here're my questions:
1. Anyone know of an easier IM program to copy/paste the writing over WiFi?
2. How well do those ebay $2-$20 capacitive pen work for writing? (are they all created equal?) (if anyone has any experience of it on the Streak7 or Samsung Tab?)
3. Recommendation for other drawing programs that'll work over wifi/IM ?
Hanping Chinese Dictionary Pro now has Chinese handwriting recognition built-in.

Problem solved (?)
This is an interesting topic that had until now escaped my attention. I will risk a scold.
Maybe we can use this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.teamprof.WifiHandwritePadPro
(Better use unified remote as described in edit2, below in this same post)
This program uses your android device as input. It does not recognize characters, it doesn't serve as drawing pad. I just gets characters from your android device and sends them to your PC. It is up to you to get a chinese input for your android, first, so you can use this software for chinese.
wifi handwrite pad uses a propietary program to link to windows and linux. This eliminates the need of IM and one copy paste in your scheme.
EDIT:
There are several chinese ime. For instance, sogou. It can recognize drawings into chinese characters, a la pleco. It is free. Pair with wifi handwrite pad your favorite pc-mobile input link and you have a character recognizer in your android powered device
Heck, I wish this existed 2 years ago. hahaha.
EDIT2:
Maybe you will want to try Unified Remote for android instead of the other app. Because it is cheaper, first. It also supports many other functions. This latter advantage might have a 5 minute configuration penalty (learning curve) attached. Works like a charm too
EDIT3:
You can use Google chinese input (IME), since it is english friendly. Sougou is far better, but the interface is in 中文 only
I know this is an old thread but I am interested in something that can do this now. I've been buying expensive devices to input Chinese characters for my parents but they keep breaking. We have extra Android tablets and would be very interested in a way to provide input from Android in the form of Chinese characters onto their Windows 10 PC.
just want to help all Chinese linux users with handwriting input as a redemption for my using everything open source all these years. Download KDE Connect at both ends. Find a handwriting app and install in your android phone. Use remote input via your phone.
Hey Guys,
Does anyone know how to or which keyboards offer word shortcuts? Like for instance on my iPhone when I type "omc" and then space i get the "On my way".
Same way I've setup the word "eid" so whenever i type eid i automatically get my email address inserted.
Cant find any info on this and i refuse to believe that IOS offers this and android doesn't.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Basically this is what i am looking for but for android

Smart keyboard pro. I've just downloaded on play store & have got all my old apple shortcuts saved

This is what you're looking for. Just installed it today. Keyboard shortcuts, and gesture typing!
Hi!
As you all know the Android virtual keyboard can offer suggestíons on the fly, when typing your text. However, these suggestions may be limited in lack of a good dictionary. So, people usually start to add new words to their custom glossary. This process could be made quicker by importing a glossary, but one has to know the exact format requirements and the folder where this dictionary must be placed. Please share any tips&ideas on this!
Hello,
I request to the experts of this forum to help me so that I can solve the following problem. I would like to make resume/curriculum vitae from my android phone. And in many resume besides the title of Education, skill, experience, location, people usually add some icons. For example beside or above the title Education people place an icon of square hat or graduate hat. The icons are tiny in size, and they are not image. I use polaris office, powerpoint point (android version), officesuit, wps office. But none of these apps offer an option to add such kind of icons.
I don't have personal computer, that is why I will have to use this android phone. Please let me know how to add icons by using android phone.
Feature of my android cell phone is : Android version 4.4.2 KitKat, 8GB ROM+1GB Ram.
Thanks in advance.
