Hey There,
I live in Germany and type most of my SMS in german.
I flashed the "Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) Keyboard" from Fabulous? under CM6.1 on my Hero. (the one from the "perfect setup guide")

it's working just fine, but the suggested words are all in english, which is actually pretty annoying, since I can make no mistake while typing.

Is there ANY way to change the dictionary/word-completion-database (whatever is responsible), so the keyboard actually suggests german words, when keyboard is set to german and english words, when set to same.
If I could only change it to one language permanently, I would still like to change it towards german.

If this doesn't work, which keyboard should I give a try? This should have a working auto-prediction in german under CM6.1
I know Swype and HTC_IME...

cheers

I don't think you can but have you tried changing your language on the phone if that does not work you might want to download smart keyboard trail from the android market then search for smart keyboard language the german language should be somewhere in the search result then go into settings then language and keyboard then check the smart keyboard trail then long press on then go into message and compose message then long press on any box and choose smart keyboard trail
