[MOD] Samsung Stock Chinese Input Method Note 2, Note 1, S III

[hocgwai]

For those interested in transporting/installing the stock sammy Jelly Bean traditional chinese input method from the note 2, here are the instructions:

1) extract the following files from any Hong Kong rom: (you can get it from sammobile.com)
/system/app/SamsungChineseIME_HKTW_Phone.apk
/system/lib/libjni_secime.so

2) copy the files to their respective locations on your rooted note 2, set permissions rw-r--r--, and reboot


This comes in handy when trying out roms without T-Chinese input

here is a public dropbox link I have included for those who want it (** SLOW...no funds for hosting **)

enjoy


Edit: well it looks like I hit the limit with dropbox and got banned so no more link. if you still want the files PM me and i can email them to you. otherwise just extract them from the roms from sammobile.com


Additionally, here are the files needed for the S III and Note 1 phones:

S3 ICS
/system/app/SamsungChineseIME_HKTW_Phone.apk
/system/lib/libjni_secime.so
/system/lib/libhsvtest.so
/system/lib/libgdhwr2.so
/system/lib/libDioSpeechTTS-jni.so
/system/lib/libDioDict3HangulCore.so
/system/lib/libDioDict3EngineNative.so

Note 1 GB/ICS
GB:
- /system/app/diopenchineseIME.apk
- /system/lib/libdhwrcn.so
- /system/lib/libdwpcn.so
- /system/lib/libhangulcore.so
- /system/lib/libkeyboardcn.so

ICS:
/system/app/SamsungChineseIME.apk
/system/lib/libjni_secime.so


Remember to set permissions after copying the files back to your phone

Thanks man
But just a hint dropbox hasnt proven itself to be very good for xda-hosting. Big download traffic causes Dropbox to ban you
Wait a second i'll make you a dropbox mirror too sp that load is shared 50-50

EDIT: here's the link CHEERS!

Why bother, just go to settings language click on samsung keyboard and just download the input method.

The standard samsungIME included with non chinese roms does not have the T-Chinese and Handwritten chinese input methods. You need to have the samsungChineseIME apk for these languages.

Does it work in Quick Command? I'm on Wanam's rom and flashed his patch and got the same Chinese IME, works everywhere else except in Quick Command, Original keyboard stays there instead of the ChineseIME as in HK ROM.

[hocgwai]

make sure your note 2 is rooted. without root you will not be able to make these changes.

here are some links for rooting your phone:

chenglu's root with cwm recovery:

this is all under the note 2 original android development forum

good luck

make sure to set permissions on both the library file and the apk file.

permissions should be:

/system/app/SamsungChineseIME_HKTW_Phone.apk rw-r--r--
/system/lib/libjni_secime.so rw-r--r--

Cheers mate. Works great now after changing the permissions.

Finally I can flash custom rom. It's works great on Omega ROM, but QuickCommand doesn't support T-Chinese input. Any idea how to add back ZH(HK) in QuickCommand? Tks in advance.

I haven't tried omega rom yet but I'm running the stock uk LJ1 and, using this method, T-Chinese handwriting is working for me in quick command

edit: my mistake. I was reading quick command but thinking multi screen. quick command does not support Chinese input.

Not a really good solution but works for me. Download the HK CSC image and flash via Odin. Then you can switch ZH(HK) in quick command function but the disadvantage is some of the bloatwares will restore from the CSC file. Remember to do a full wipe after flash the CSC image.

basically yes. but you will have to use the chinese IME from an HK GB or ICS rom respective of your rom. Below are the files you will need:

GB:
- /system/app/diopenchineseIME.apk
- /system/lib/libdhwrcn.so
- /system/lib/libdwpcn.so
- /system/lib/libhangulcore.so
- /system/lib/libkeyboardcn.so

ICS:
/system/app/SamsungChineseIME.apk
/system/lib/libjni_secime.so

and remember to set the permissions.

hi guys
Can be used in the S3 ??

 

[stephencwl]

Thanks. I am going to try this on my note with Crash Rom.

Edit:
It works in Note 1!

But IMO it's not as good as the original HK IME in Note 1. Can't swap between Handwriting, Chinese Keyboard AND English Keyboard on the go without going into settings.

Do you have the HK IME in latest note 1 Rom?
Sorry, too lazy to download and extract. Just drop me a link in case you have the files at hand.

Anyway thanks!
