How to change encoding in messages? - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Basically what the title says, I want to change the encoding, because I am bored of being limited to 70 characters per sms(since I am using a language other than English)
Back in my galaxy s3 I would just change the encoding and problem solved, but in my z2 I cant even find the setting for that...
Any ideas?

As I couldn't find this option in stock messaging app I started using textra. Give it a try.

For this u should need a modded Conversation apk. And u need root also. If u are rooted means i can help you mate..

Or flash another firmware variant, that have cost saving option already included - for example CE1.

Nevermimd, I should have googled earlier...
I used an xposed mod and It does just what I wanted.
It enables the cost saving option in messaging app...
The module Is called jackos Xperia conversations tweaks.

[Q] swype not working in neo 2.3.4 update

Hi,
i am new to this forum and I have gone through all the threads here but I can't quite a find a solution to a problem I have, i am using a sony ericsson neo ,I am using stock ROM and I have not rooted my fone and have no intention of doing it as of now. i updated it to 2.3.4 build 4.0.2.A.0.42 last night and everything works perfectly except for swype feature
In one thread Frank had mentioned that we need to enable the swipe to write option , i checked in my fone and could not find that under text input settings. however i found "gesture Input" feature which had a similar description to the swype screenshot in the thread. i have enabled this.i had also removed the third party go sms app i was using for texts since it might conflict, but still the swype feature doesn't seem to be working,
My fone was originally imported from hongkong and I am using it in India. It shows a japanese and a chinese keyboard apart from the standard keyboard under the keyboard settings page, I have disabled the swype to switch layout feature in the chinese keyboard since it might conflict with swype.
i do not know what else to do to make swype work.
can someone help me out?
i have attached the screen shot of my text input settings and my fone status which shows the build number and everything.
i was unsure if i should start a seperate thread for this . I had added this in the Android 2.3.4 - MT15i 4.0.1.A.0.283 new Features/Bugs thread since it was the most appropriate thread i could find and did not receive any reply for over 24 hrs so I have deleted that post and started a new thread, if you want me to move it back there i can gladly do so.
Sry i'm being such a noob
and
Thanks in advance for your help,
1. click and hold on input field.
2. choose international keyboard in the pop up box
3. start swype

[Q] z5+ iPhone clone to native Android 4.2

Hi,
Recently purchased the following iPhone clone:
z5_4.0_Android_4.2_MTK6577_Cortex_A9_Dual_Core_1.2GHz_Smartphone_Android
It runs iPhone launcher which uses "iPhone like" settings.
The problem is that the available languages are limited and even if I download keyboard pack it doesn't show it in the options.
Other keyboards like emoji present only english (emoticon leaves a blank).
I'm ready to lose the iPhone GUI.
How can I revert it back to Android 4.2 native GUI, without loosing USB, Wi-Fi, GPS or any other available functionality?
I went through the posts but couldn't find a match - if there is one, please point me to it.
Thanks,
JL.
Any update?

If it's not under the normal language settings, I'd contact your phone operator/the place where you bought it. Given that it's Spanish you shouldn't be the only one with this problem.
EDIT: actually, I just googled a bit and apparently the really ship it without Spanish? If that really is the case and you absolutely need the phone in Spanish you might need to root it and use another rom (phone-software). Check the S3 forums on xda, ask around there what other people did to solve the issue.
Thanks
Thanks. Yeah. It sucks that most Samsung phones in Canada only have 3/4 language choices.
Inglish, French and Korean. Question......if i change the room, can i use stock rooms from other carriers that are similar models as my phone?

Google keyboard missing english

Hi,
On my old phone I always used to type with the Google Keyboard. Mostly switching between English and Dutch with the button next to the space bar.
Now, on my Honor 7, I don't have the option to select English when choosing languages.
I can only choose either "Use system language" OR one or more "Active input methods" but that last one does not include English.
Anybody with the same issue or a solution for this?
Related but not such a big issue. My layout should be azerty but is now qwerty.
Thanks in advance

Use swype keyboard, it's far better and you can set any language, even two of them.
Isn´t the original Huawei standard keyboard actually a Swype version?

It is indeed. Just switch to English and adjust variables as you wish.

I have the same issue and don't want to use the swipe keyboard. I can only select Dutch or English, not both at the same time and then switch via the space bar.
Send from my Honor 7 using the free xda app.
You can select both languages and switch them with the space bar.

The strange thing is, when I choose my local language, I can choose any additional language, but not English...
I used this keyboard before on other phones, no issues there.

Check thoroughly through all language settings, there is a ton of them and somewhere you have even Chinese as a second language preset. I adjusted all settings and I can select both languages as you can see on attached pictures.
Similar problem
I have got Honor 7 just couple of days ago but have already noticed that Google Keyboard is missing a lot of layouts, especially the one I really appreciated - Uzbek. I have had Galaxy S4 before and installed Google Keyboard from Play Store and it has much more layouts available.
Anyone knows if there is any way to uninstall preinstalled Google Keyboard from Honor 7 and reinstall it from Play Store?

You simply must root your phone, remove google keyboard from system (make sure to install a keyboard app before you do so) then reinstall it.
Or try updating the app if possible

Yeah, I came to the same conclusion. I wrote to Huawei support their reply is the standard "If the language is not available on the Google keyboard settings then I'm afraid there's no support for that language"

Updating didn't help. I have the latest version (5.1.23.127065177-arm64-v8a) according to Play Store.

I have English. I don't have Uzbek layout (which exists on my Galaxy S4).
@Jixop Go to Language & Input settings, you'll have options there to enable various languages.

I don't know what's wrong here.
I was able to solve this! I upgraded to Android 6 and was able to disable the preinstalled Google Keyboard. Then I installed its clone from an .apk and then I have finally found Uzbek layout!

Hi kin kwan.
Flashed your ROM thanks, testing now.
Wow your ROM is a quarter of the size of the BTU official ROM, yours 1.19Gb BTU 4.052 Gb! connects to my S6 Edge via bluetoothOK, seems twice as fast than original ROM. All my apps and watch faces I paid for transfer to gear great!
1-Could you fix news briefing page as its a chinese web page and not in English?
2-Select keyboard only shows Chinese IME, could you add English?
3-Could you enable delete of stored Chinese contacts that are loaded?
4-How do i transfer contacts from my S6 Edge to gear s?
Keep up the good work.

1-The news is based on the ROM package, I use the Chinese package, so it will be chinese.
2-Input method and language can change ah. After you change the English, the following is not a keyboard settings, in the choice of.
3-
4-Connect to use Samsung gear.
Connections can be synchronized with your contacts, and may also change the language of the news briefing.
Hi kin kwan.
Thanks again for your ROM and help, I have re flashed original stock ROM due to a few hicuups with chinese language (when creating SMS), and when I paired with my S6 Edge plus and getting weather updates when the gear was a standalone again.
Keep up the great work..

Hi kin kwan.
Could you add some sort of tethering for future updates? so I could use a SIM in the gear s to throw data to a tablet or PC etc.
Thanks.

IMHO, I think it's a bad idea. The battery is only 300mAh..you're going to kill the battery in less than 4 hours, I wager.
你好!刷了机是不是在gear s手表那升级呢?

我只会中文,所以英语是翻译器翻译的。只打中文的话 肯定不会错
I will only Chinese, so English is the translator to translate. Only the words of the Chinese will certainly not be wrong
