I'm running newtoroot's senseless 4.0.3 and am loving it. The one problem that was bugging me was the fact that there was no dictionary accompanied with the keyboard, and it would say every word that you typed is incorrect. Well I found a fix.

1. Download these two files: LatinImeGoogle.apk & LatinImeDictionaryPack.apk
2. Put the apk's onto your sd card
3. Copy the apk's
4. Navigate to /system/app and paste the apk's into the directory
5. Rename (or delete) the file titled "LatinIME.apk"
6. You now have a working dictionary for your keyboard!

Spell check does not work with the Russian language, with only five standard languages.
Additional dictionaries can only work correctly with auto-correction
Apparently, the spell checker uses the same dictionaries as the auto-correction, but to check the spelling was not announced additional languages
Who can tell about this problem? ;-)

I can't seem to paste nor rename the default apk file in the /system/app folder. I checked the SU, and ES Explorer has been granted the (root) permission.. What did I do wrong??

In ES, use the menu system to remount as R/W then try again. Even with root you're still limited to a read-only file system unless you do that.

I tried it, buy ni my case it doesn't work

before this try, my tablet was sign almost every words in red (except some name, or some word)

now, my tablet, doesn't make any king of spelling check :-(
but the "automatic correction" is enabled in the system setting

Why? some one can help?

Thanks!

Took me a while to get r/w to system/apps but once there the T9 and massively irritating underlining of every word has gone.

Awesome thank you so much.

Thanks for LatinImeGoogle.apk & LatinImeDictionaryPack.apk and the instructions!
Solved the problem on my iDeaUSA CT702 / YG A777 tablet running Android 4.0.3

not working

I have a Motorola Xoom FE, just got ICS today. tried this fix and it did not work. I was getting an operation error on the delete/rename. I went back in mounted after R/W and it still wasn't allowing it. Suggestions? All these red lines are driving me bananas....

    I must be having a brain fart moment. I tried with astro and root explorer and it says the system/app is a read only and will not let me copy them over. Help?

    Is this an adb only mod?

    Go to /system/app in Root Explorer and hit the R/W button.
