  • Custom keyboard for Kyocera DuraXV Extreme

Hello, I have the DuraXV Extreme. But I live in Sweden and would like to write in Swedish using (X)T9. Right now i can't even use the swedish letters: ÅÄÖ
Is there any way to add these letters, or even better, a Swedish T9?

I can't for my life find a way to root the phone or even unock the bootloader, which I guess would open up a lot of possibilities.

    Jonassj I don't know what keyboard would be good. Maybe something like [Login to see the link], but it doesn't support Swedish. It's possible the developer would add it, or if you know about android app development, you can make your own fork.

    Kyocera phones are locked down a bunch. From what I've seen online, the only way people rooted is with one click root apps like Kingo Root. Some people said it worked, and some people were stuck with the Kingo Root app in their system partition forever (but root didn't work somehow). I don't know which Kyocera this was.

    And while rooting does open up possibilities, I don't know if that would help you get Swedish.

    Wow thanks a lot!
    I didn't realize I could just change the T9 app. I forked it and added Swedish and it seems to work fine.

    For anyone else who want to add this keyboard app to the Dura XV
    The keyboard need to be loaded through ADB like this:

    After installing APK:
    adb shell ime enable io.github.sspanak.tt9/.ime.TraditionalT9
    adb shell ime set io.github.sspanak.tt9/.ime.TraditionalT9

      Jonassj Nice. You good with Java? Also, submit a pull request to the developer so he can add it for everyone. Good job!
