Using AZERTY layout with English/American language

[merciadriluca]

Hi,

I would like to use my HTC Desire in English or American, but with an AZERTY keyboard layout. I've tried all the options, and when I choose English or American language, I always have to use some QWERTY keyboard... Is there a workaround? This appears to me as some not-too-illogical thing, what I want.

Thanks.

Any way to do this?

I'd like to set up my phone settings with the AZERTY layout as well.
Nobody know how to fix this issue ?

Same issue here!

(I think this thread should be moved to the HTC Desire subforum)

To do so, go to 'Settings', 'Language & Keyboard', 'Touch Input', 'International keyboard'.
There you will find a list of languages. Just select the one you want (and unselect all the other ones) and there you go, azerty keyboard (if you chose French, Dutch, or any other language which default keyboard is azerty)

Swiftkey supports AZERTY with American, try out the free demo and try it out.

Indeed, it switches to azerty for French, but not for Dutch or English.
When I hit the "switch language button" on the keyboard, the keyboard layout changes too! How can this ever be handy ? Oh this is sooooo stupid.

The keyboard layout should be configurable and they stay fixed regardless of the dictionnary language. (OK, I imagine some exceptional uses may exist like switching between chinese and english where you would just need another keyboard layout.)

Way to ignore my post.
