Creating International Keyboards

Done & uploaded!

Download: Meizu M8 International Keyboard
Current version: 0.1.3

Please post your translations to this thread so I can update the package and add them.

Thanks to AlexNesterov for this fine idea!

very nice hope everyone will have an own keyboard!(french german hungarian spanish polish.etc...)

try this thai .cab , i complied it to use things more easier

thaifingerkb build0093.cab Upload ??????? ??????? ?????? ??????? : Upload.Sanook.com 1

then analyze it with "WinCE CAB MANAGER"

the file that u need to modify is in the /skins/ directory on that cab.

when you installed the cab , the icon name " ThaiKB Settings " will appear on the 2nd page , tapped it and press the left button , then restart the phone.


thanks fingerkb for the nice keyboard and alex for some guides.

Thanks, already found it though. Just creating the Swedish keyboard now...

God, you're all Genius!
I'll try this A.S.A.P!

hey it is very similar to the german one

do not need a Å but ß and Ü

Well, it worked! Going out for a bit, posting a tutorial later.

Nice, can't wait to finally write äöü instead of ae oe ue, also saves some chars when writing sms ^^

Can russian keyboard be used on page which browse with opera ? such as type for google search box. In Thai keyboard we can't

Finally! First try, not yet perfect...
Also text input in Opera does not work (on websites)

Great job guys...

I'll have to try this and see if i can make a better english keyboard - looks like you have a one-tap 'shift' option.

No thanks to Meizu!!!


oh... well they did give us the hardware

Not all text input not work-you can enter digits and special symbols, all except the alphabet symbols. I think, it's Opera 9 problem, it's known bug, that many keyboards don't work in it. I test 5 keyboards and not one work in Opera... We must ask developers to add support of not native keyboards, i doubt, that ourselves we can do this...

can someone upload the fingerkeyboard.cab file? i have registered to xda-developers but still am not able to download from there.

Link in the first post

ah, ok now. i thought the russian package is already edited in russian language. sorry.

hmm. does not work. installed it as written on meizu-m8.ru

will this be able to make english keyboard default?

Yes, this KB can be set as default and english layout in it also. Main disadvantage of this keyboard - it's not worked in Opera...
Punchlinegott go to \program files\finger keyboard, run fingerkb_register, select Yes, then go to control panel and select this Kb in the list of keyboards.

There's a gesture software I saw at chinese bbs what you can use to change input method via a flick of your finger (I think an earlier version is available to download from us) I'll try and find it. Then we can switch back to default keyboard if needed in Opera
Just a theory...
