So I rooted my HDX 8.9 with towelroot, had superSU running and successfully turned off OTA. I checked the root and it was successful. I go to download ES File Explorer and discover the keyboard doesn't work. Any idea how to get it back? I tried unrooting and doing a system restore but now I am just unrooted and still have no keyboard. Any idea what to do?

Download google keyboard, go to settings then language and keyboard then keyboard language, find the language that says Automatic, check mark it, find the language English (US), CHECKMARK IT, find the language English (UNITED STATES) make sure it has a check mark as well. Now go to a web page and try to pull up a keyboard. If it does not come back up try unticking the language called English (UNITED STATES) but leave English (US) ticked. If that allows google keyboard to run you will need to then download other apps to make google voice to text operate. Shout out if this works and I'll try to link you to the apps you need. The nav bar will get in the way of custom keyboards so you will have to do away with it as well.
This is all a part of a highly complex beating that Amazon gave Android to destroy it errrrr I mean customize it......

Hmmm good point lol. Try to do a side load from PC maybe? If you have a bluetooth keyboard try that, if not go to settings, language and keyboard, keyboard languages , make sure automatic and English (United States) are ticked. Despite these supposedly being languages they also control the keyboard that is enabled as well. I know, not like android menu at all but its true. If both of those are ticked then the default kindle keyboard should be enabled. Did you do anything other than root? Install exposed? Change build prop?

The languages are unclickable for some reason, I think I may be screwed haha.
Also, I didn't do much. I installed the ADB, SuperSu, rooted, and blocked updates

When you uprooted and factory reset did you 1 unregister the device before factory reset, 2 unblock OTA updates? If not I'd suggest you use the root tool in the device section to re enable OTA updates, then go into settings, my account then click deregister, next go into settings, device, factory reset. Next turn on the device and re register the device. Not deregister in before resets has caused me a problem a time or 2 as well as odd behavior when ota is blocked. Specifically language settings. Let us know what you find out after you do this. Also if that does not work try resetting from recovery by turning off the device, hold power and volume up until menu pops, reset.
Hmm, I see the option to disable the updates but not restore them

Hit 5 (more) on the PC keyboard in the root tool menu and then hit enter. It will then display enable OTA update, check if rooted and back to main menu
Ah okay, I found it. Unfortunately the problem did not go away.
Now I am getting the adb server is out of date bug for some reason. I didn't even do anything new : /

Hi there,
After upgrade my Folio thinks it is a model SGH-T849 ???
Now I cannot use my apps Documents to go (full version).
Can anyone help.
Is the v.1.4 the latest??
Regards,
Per.
this is because dexter changed the name in the build.prop to make the folio appear as a samsung galaxy tab on the market and for other apps. it should basically work fine. try uninstalling and reboot and reinstall the documents to go apk.
ps a backup of all user apps as apks is very usefull before major updates!
Thanks,
I do have a backup made with the Android Optimizer. The thing that worried me is, that it is saying "unsupported model".
I tried and it worked great. Now I only need to figure out, why the Danish language has gone.
I can do English, no problem but it was nice in Danish.
i guess language is changed according to system language. setting system default to danish language then reinstalling will probably get u the danish language u want
It turns out that Dexter put an "more local" apps and here it can be chanced.
[Q] Flashed rom, and lost my local language as "writing" language, how to restore?
I just flashed a new rom to my phone, and despite what the person told me, the rom actually did not "entirely" work in my country. It works in general, and I can select either English language or my native language on the phone and the software works otherwise fine.
But what went wrong is that my native language's "writing" language got lost in this transition. Before I could switch between the 2 of them, but after i upgraded the language simply dissappeared off my list of choices.
I am aware I "might" be able to fix it by "simply" downloading another keyboard from the market, but I would consider that a workaround rather then a proper fix.
So is there some way for me to get my native language back on the list, or am I just SOL on that account?.

Why don't you try re-flashing the gapps and running fix permissions through your recovery.
Hi
I got a new htc 4g lte mobile from china. Everything is in Chinese and I am not understanding anything. In the settings tab there is no option to change the language. So I tried to install morelocale2 app but it says there is no superuser previlige and I am not able to use the Mobile in usb debugging mode. The build id is KOT49H.
I even tried to reboot using e MMC option but nothing worked. When I try to get the device info using an app it says kitkat 4.4.5 version. Is it real or fake? Will I be able to change the language to English? Else pls help me to change the rom and install android.
Thanks in advance
Phani
In system setting find the icon of a keyboard button with letter A and select it. The first choice is for changing languages. If that didn't work out try finding the htc default get started app on your phone and the first thing you set there is the language. You can also install go launcher in order not to unlock or root your phone. I don't think it be a serious problem that you think your phone might be fake or somthing ! Good luck
Hello
I have downloaded TWRP alka from this link but when I flashed it, its in chinese. How do I change it to English please?
on the main screen hit "Settings" which is the 2nd column. 3rd one down.
Scroll all the way to the end. Should see English, select it and then "hit set language" (the only button there)

After flash boot into recovery startup screen shows you a pop up message in Chinese language just click on second option. You can change language to English.
Thanks. Sorted the language problem.
Now the questions is, how do you keep the settings permanently? Every time I reboot into recovery, it starts with default settings and back to chinese language. Is there a way to keep the settings like language, time, vibration etc.

Nope. Not deleting any folder. But its still not saving the settings.
Did you find a reply to if we can keep settings permanent?
Every time I reboot into recovery, it shows Chinese recovery.
Thanks
Thank you so much, it worked. I was worried what to do
