Hello, im asking a question for someone else who is a lawstudent.
She has a S3 and is wondering if there are any downloadable keyboards who has the paragraph sign (§). Apparently the stock one doesnt seem to have one.
If someone can check their keyboards please let me know.
SwiftKey doesn't have it, if it helps
i think the paragraph sign is this one: ¶ .
anyways i don't have both "§" and "¶" at smartkeyboard pro.
your solution should be A.I.type Keyboard which suppports those signs:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aitype.android
Hackers keyboard has this ¶
if you can settle on ¶ alone @slaphead20 gave you a perfectly correct answer and go keyboard also has this so you can have other options
if not the only one i noticed is A.I as i mentioned
Ok.. Many thanks fellas..
Beamed from my Senny..

I bet you have a Touch Pro and the keyboard is setup for a fuze. Go into settings and look around and you will find an app that will change the keyboard layout for you!
sorted thanks, i feel stupid lol.
Next time, post the rom question in the rom thread instead of creating a new thread.
THREAD CLOSED
Good afternoon everyone.
I've recently installed on my Xperia Mini Pro the new Cyanogenmod 9.1.
It's more than brilliant but lacks of a very important feature... I'm not able to use the onscreen t9 and the hardware keyboard has not spellcheck or autocomplete feature.
for the first problem, i've solved with a zip flashable file containing xperia S keyboard and i managed to have t9 keyboard in vertical and qwerty keyboard in landscape, with a perfectly working autocomplete and spellcheck...
But when i use hardware keyboard I hate I cannot have the spellcheck or autocorrect, because italian is very reach in stresses and it's disappointing using a long press key every time i have to strees a vowel... with the stock rom i just typed the word and it got corrected automatically.
Also, the sym key shows me just symbols and would be great to have all the smiles back like in the original firmware.
I've found a system folder from 4.0.4 original firmware of Xperia mini pro [SK17i_system_folder_4.1.B.0.431.rar if u wanna google it] so I would be able to post here all the keyboard files that could add the original t9, autocomplete and spellcheck both of on-screen keyboard (so we don't have to use the Xperia S files) and expecially for hardware keyboard...
Can anybody help me?
I want to stay with Cyanogenmod 9, but if I dont find a solution i will be forced to go back to 2.3.4 to have the original keyboard back
Thank you so much for help!
Hello there, I had the same problem as you but luckily I found a solution to that problem.
I can't attach the .zip cause it's too large, but here is the link to the thread containing the keyboard: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1725050
Look for "Xperia S ICS keyboard", download it, flash it via CWM, select in settings, voila you have a T9 keyboard that should satisfy if not all, some of the things you were looking for.
It works on my SK17i CM9.1 100%
Press thanks if this helped you.

i had already tried this file but it's not what i'm looking for because does not allow me to use autocomplete on the physical keyboard.
it would be the best if somebody could do that kind of file with original Mini pro keyboard (onscreen and physical)... it would make CM9 the perfect rom...
Thanks, i like the Keyboard a lot! Works almost 100%

Hello to everyone in this forum.
I have the same issues. I'm Italian too.
The same here in germany. Swiftkey has a nice replacement feature, but it misses swipe in vertical mode. It would be nice to be able to change keyboard depending of HW-Keyboard status. If Keyboard is out, use Swiftkey, if its in, use Xperia-Keyboard. maybe this could be solved with Tasker, but I didn't test right now.
edit: I tested with tasker and needed an external plug in, - It worked! but this solution doesn't make me happy as Swiftkey cannot handle the extra keys like ? and ' right.
+1
does anyone have a proper fix for the hardware keyboard on the Xperia Mini Pro, Including the symbol and globe keys?
thanks
Maybe we need a porting from the original stock rom. Is there any way to extract the files from the original rom? I also tried to backup the original keyboard with Titanium but I fail
Same issue here.
I am italian, too.
For a language as ours, it's very important having predictive text in hard keyboard.
Is there any workaround?
Please reply!
I've tried some keyboard's apps but no one satisfied 100%
Thanks.
Any news?
Any workaround? What keyboard do you use at the moment? :cyclops:
I use Swiftkey, but I'm not satisfied 100% yet.

only nice for the skin but when i use it for tying it adds extra letter on the last typed word is you press space
for example if i would type in google "what is the time in brussels" it becomes "whatt timee iss itt inn brusselss"
anything new?
I currently try SwiftKey Flow beta? With swipe. IT seems to. Have. IT all

Hey Developers!
why doesn't anybody port the original xperia mini pro keyboard from the original ICS rom? and put it into a flashable zip. i don't think it would be a hard job after these grate roms. :good: it would solve all the problems ))

yes... it's a real pity that there is still NO solution for that problem
THIS is a simple but the ONLY reason because I can't handle with cyanogen.... i'm a great fan of this project but i really miss the keyboard (which is a must for a mobile like mini pro)... so I'm still so sad that nobody was able to fix this problem ALL the mini pro user have
I think i'm on the right way to use the keyboard but i still need some help from experienced developers.
I've managed to install the keyboard but still it crashes.
I dumped all the system folder from the lastest Mini Pro firmware (4.0.4 built 567 if I remember well) in a zip and installed from recovery all the files related to some keywords (used the search function of a mac).
I've used
- key
- keyboard
- input
- text
- emoticon
- emoji
- qwerty
- font
- slide
and something like that (I can't remember all the keywords but i think they are all)
Anyway as i wrote before when i turn on the keyboard it keeps crashing without even starting (i can never see the keyboard on screen and with the slide keyboard).
I think it's great i managed to install but i have not the right experience to know what files are missing or are disturbing the keyboard...
Does anybody have a clue? (unfortunatly i cannot post this post in the developer rooms)
I will attach soon the zip file i'm testing on Cyanogen mod 9.1.
(I've added TrackId to see if the installation process was ok, just while developing this zip file)
Tell me what, according to you, would be good to add for the keyboard
Have you set all permission properly? Because if not it can't work. And you would have to take the textinput-tng.apk (not sure how it's named) from /system/app
But I don't know if this will ever work, I hope so :good:

Couldn't really think of a good title for this questions, anyway...
My problem is simple yet I can't find any solution. When ever I type/swipe a sentence and want to add in a smiley face, the keyboard deletes the space after my last word when I input the :.
Here is an example: I'm glad you could make it out tonight
Instead, what my keyboard would do is delete the space between tonight and : so it would read: I'm glad you could make it out tonight: ).
I use a lot of smileys so this can get very frustrating. Any help is welcome.
I am using the latest version of the TouchPal keyboard (v5), but I have also experienced this on other keyboards.
NOTE: NO, I do NOT want to use the built in smileys, I prefer typing them out.
Fellow modders, could you please suggest some good Keyboards?
The problem is that there probably won't be a good swype-like keyboard available for Serbian language for a long time (there are simply too many word-forms and irregular forms per word). I've been trying to get used to Swype (the latest version) for 2 weeks now, but it's simply not possible, their Serbian dictionary is not really big and I have to type in manually at least one new word per a message which then completely destroys any speed effect that swyping has I've added ~150 my words so far, but I still have to write in new ones all the time... And wnex ord prediction is non existent, Swype sucks at predicting words. The good thing about Swype is that it keeps the standard 26 letter keyboard (all Ć, Č and C are under C; Š and S are under S etc).
I've also tried the latest SwiftKey X. The problem with it is that it shows all 30 letters of Serbian Latin script and that makes the key too small... The dictionary and word prediction seems a lot better than it is on Swype, but the keys are just so small I couldn't find an option to switch to a 26 letter keyboard while using the Serbian dictionary
So, after weeks of experimenting, I would like to return to the usual way of typing - letter by letter. What keyboard would you recommend for this?
The best keyboard for letter by letter typing on Gingerbread was that HTC one, it was A LOT better than the 2.3 AOSP keyboard! But it doesn't work on anything higher than Android 2.3
Coming to ICS and JellyBean, the AOSP keyboard has been greatly improved, but I find the keys a bit too small for our screens and when I type fast, mistakes happen all the time
I will try to use SwiftKeyX as a regular keyboard, without Serbian and "Flow" enabled, but would you recommend any more? Are there any good brand-made keyboards for Android 4.x? Sony/Xperia, Samsung/TouchWiz, HTC/Sense?
*sorry for the terribly long post*
I remember seeing a HTC Sense keyboard somewhere for ICS+. I'll post the link if I find it.

I've switched from Swype to Swiftkey and have been using it for the past week or so and deleted it last night. The more I used it, the worse the predictions and the corrections became... The Xperia keyboard is nice, but the keys are utterly to small for me, I couldn't achieve any speed or precision
I will try TouchPal and Kii keyboards in the following days, maybe one of these two will work out for me
If not, I've also signed up for the Minuum keyboard beta and I'm waiting for them to contact me.... (you can sign up here - http://minuum.com/ )
I also was searching for good keyboard for our "small" screens.
Also i needed Serbian letters and Ћирилица. I tested a lot of them and last 1 year i am using Smart Keyboard Pro.
You can edit everything you want. There is also calibration so can be calibrated it to your usage.

Thanks, mate, will check it out for sure
I have tested Kii Keyboard and Touchpal since my last post. Kii Keyboard is not on par with the bigger names (like Swype, Touchpal and Swiftkey), it just doesn't feel that mature. I didn't find it enjoyable.
Touchpal was very good for my needs, but I couldn't turn off its "toolbar" (that's how they call its word suggestion line, because it has shortcuts to some tools) which was very irritating

There's a lot keyboards at marketplace for sure but i never found any keyboard that i can change everything i want, there is always that something need to stay or i am missing something from reall keyboard. When you are typing, some suffs are just anoying and that was:
- Turn off complitlly text predirection, only Auto-capitalizion to stay,
- add enter button,
- remove speaker button,
- remove smiley button,
- remove or change popup button (usually that can makes small deley when you type fast, so without it you can type how much fast you want)
- having " , " and " . " at same time
- control extra space
- having normal, not some colored styles
- support for needed language and when i use it, i don't need to use that layout. So when i am using Serbian language, i dont need to have changed letters Z ana Y. English layout can be used.
- Calibration is incredible, its impossible to wrote wrong word with it. I dont understand how perfect can be but it is. I just will never learn to use touch screen for type message
- after all after you restore backup from memory card, calibration and all settings are same as you saved them.
There is so much more stuffs that i didn't found on other keyboard but i just need them. That was the only reason why i hated this phone when i buyed it At first look i tought that its impossible to write normal messages without 30% of bad typed words but after this one, i found it possible. Maybe there is many peoples who will find that less important but when you wrote some important mail or something, i don't wanna spend 10 minutes more to find all strings or keys i always need.
Phone is just incredible and i want to make it most possible incredible that i can
Sorry for mine English

I know, and Swiftkey and Touchpal have those features as well, but I don't want to use text prediction and auto-correction... I've tried living with those features for almost a month and it didn't work out, the Serbian dictionaries available for keyboards are not very good and the amount of word forms covered is very low...
Thanks for the suggestion, though
@EmptySD Downloaded Smart Keyboard Pro, will test soon! And don't worry, your English is good enough to get the message across :good:

Which I did But then SwiftKey didn't make much noise, because the keys are more cramped up than they are on the AOSP keyboard and, furthermore, the symbols were strangely positioned and smileys weren't as accessible as on the AOSP one, so...
But it doesn't matter, because Smart Keyboard Pro is just what I needed A tad bigger keys than on the AOSP keyboard and that's it. Everything is in the same place, but I have a higher speed combined with a better accuracy
Thanks goes out to all of you who had any suggestions!

Hello folks!
Today it's been three days since I updated my Nexus 5 to Lollipop. It's supercool except keyboard. I don't know whether this is a BUG or a FEATURE :laugh:
This issue was confirmed by 2 more users using Android 5.0 and New Google keyboard. But users who are using new Google keyboard on KK (4.4.4) haven't experiencing such problem.
So here's my letter to Google describing the issue and a video I recorded to show what I'm actually talking about.
Hi guys!
As a iOS-to-Android switcher I would like to ask you guys a question about your new Google keyboard.
I own a Nexus 5 device with Android 5.0 installed on it.
I do use swype typing a lot. I mean really a lot)
When I type a text using Google keyboard I use a lot of “custom" words, because your Russian dictionary is very poor and lack of a lot of common words I must say. So I have to add them manually. It is a pain in the ass when it comes to adding a new word to a user's dictionary while typing a text. On KitKat with old keyboard it took 2 taps to add a new word.
Old keyboard (KitKat experience)
Steps were:
- type a word
- tap in the middle section of suggestion strip where my new word did appear
- confirm adding to the dictionary (this step is useless, really think getting rid of it please)
New keyboard (Lollipop experience)
Steps are
- type a word
- space (need to do to get word appear in the middle section of suggestion strip)
- backspace (need to do to get word appear in the middle section of suggestion strip)
- tap in the middle section of suggestions where my new word finally did appear
- confirm adding to the dictionary (this step is still useless, really think getting rid of it please)
iOS do it like ONE tap guys. Just one tap and boom! your word is on dictionary. No need to confirm, to space, to backspace or do something else. Just that simple.
Here is the video demonstrating what I’m talking about:
I can't post videos until I have 10+ posts... (Anyone with 10+ post can PM me and I'll send you a link to the video to post it here for better understanding. Thanks.)
Hope you guys'll read this letter and do your best to stick a lot of people like me with Android. I really like Android and I don’t want to switch back to iOS. But such things are driving me nuts and make me think of switching back.
Regards,
Denis.
