Is it possible? I mean, yesterday I've bought this software and only one feature I couldn't find how to switch language in built-in keyboard. My second language is russian. Can I do it?
I've tried shift+space and it is not working. I have Samsung Epic 4G
Thank you very much for that software

This has been discussed in other places, but actually the problem is not that you cannot change the language (shift+space should work), but that the russian hard keyboard is not (yet) supported
This is something I will work on soon

Ok, but can you tell me is your phone is a localized version for Russia? If yes can you show me a picture of the keyboard?

I'm living in the United States, So, it is not localized. Phonetic keyboard will do just fine.

Ok it's done! Can you check the
beta and let me know if it works on your phone?
As it's the most generic solution, I implemented a phonetic layout, with double tap to access the extra letters:
ы -> ъ
е -> э
у -> ю
о -> ё
й -> ь
з -> ж
ш -> щ
By the way you need "Suggest on hard keys" option to have this working

It is working.
I'm sorry, I've checked again everywhere and found why it wasn't working. I did not checked the option "Physical keyboard".
It is working. Thank you very much!

Hi, I've decided do not create different thread so I'll post here. Well, I'm a russian too so I use that language in Moto Milestone localized for russian market so I have russian letters in hard keyboard.
When I enable "physical keyboard" option I receiva a phonetic layout for hard keyboard with suggestions, when disable - hark keys are ok, but there is no word suggestions.
Is it a very complex to implement, i mean suggestions without changing the layout? Or in this case you should to implement russian layout for milestone keyboard which is strange in some keys - two letters on one key?
Thakns for answer!
