I've got the same problem... did u solve it??

Swype typing does work for hebrew with the nexus 4 keyboard, I'm using a custom rom since I got the phone so I can't say 100% it works on stock but I doubt it's related to the rom.
You need to go to system settings> language and input> android keyboar(AOSP) setting --> scroll down and make sure "Enable gesture typing" is checked.
You can also buy slide it keyboard which is nice.

so far..
I have the same problem and have spent some time researching...
From what I've come to understand, the problem is related to a missing Hebrew dictionary... but I'll be glad if anyone could confirm that.
Anyway, it works on some roms which CyanogenMod based and use it's keyboard (for example LiquidSmooth)
I've also found this thread which has a flashable keyboard with the hebrew dictionary included but I've yet to check if it enables the gesture typing for hebrew so if anyone can verify that it would be nice..
don't forget to hit THANKS if I helped you.

I had this problem when i switched back to the Google keyboard.
After about half an hour received a notification to download the Hebrew dictionary for the Google keyboard.
All is working not, both prediction and gesture typing.

[Q] Keyboard language

How can i change my keyboard language from english to greek . I go to menu , settings , language and keyboard , touch input , settings and the default language is only english and nothing else .I want to put there the greek language so i could write with greek with my hardware keyboard . Thank you
I want to know too
I want Thai landuage on Europe Fw.
Up.
I'm also interesting in changing my languages. For this purpose, I tryied to change it by using morelocales. The result is that now, I'm well localised on websites (i.e, youtube from the good country). But I don't have the good language predictive feature.
In the keyboard parameter, I have configured a foreign language but I don't see any difference.
How can I solve this?
Thanks for your help.
I forget. I tried by using swype. It works with the virtual keyboard but I lost the predictive feature with the physical keyboard.
bump.
i would also like to be able to use Chinese pinyin on the hardware keyboard.
Using google pinyin works, but i have to change the input everytime because the english sucks.

Switching keyboard IME from Samsung ChineseIME back to Google Keyboard

I normally use Google Keyboard US with Swype enable to write my text messages.
But sometimes I need to input Chinese characters, therefore I switch from my (main) google keyboard (in which I use swype) to Samsung Chinese IME.
This is simply achieved with 1 step: I simply click on the keyboard icon showing a world-globe (left from space bar and right from "," and I select Samsung Chinese IME.
Doing so the Samsung Chinese IME automatically becomes the default keyboard.
In order to switch back, since the world-globe icon is NOT ANYMORE there, under Samsung IME, I need to:
1. go to settings
2. clinck on My Device
3. click on Language and input > here I see that the default keyboard is NOT Samsunch Chinese IME
4. Select English (US) Google Keyboard
Only after 4 steps I am able to revert back to my google swype keyboard!
Is there a shortcut?
I am trialing SlideIT, but it seems that it does NOT contain Chinese IME.
Same goes for Google IME: it has many languages, bit NOT Chinese...at least on my version.
Thank you!

If you know a way to add Chinese to my Google Keyboard, than I would have solved my problems..
Thank you
Saulo
I am trying another IME, called SwiftKey, but it does NOT offer Chinese input...
So I still need to switch back and forth from google keyboard to Samsung Chinese IME...
Please any idea?
No ideas on how to make the switching among IME Keyboards?

I haven't get any more replies, so let me ask a different question: does anybody know a SWYPE style keyboard capable to input Chinese in addition to English and French?
Thank you!
Saulo
I think Google keyboard supports Chinese, just google it, or take a look at the play store...
For other keyboards, try Swype keyboard or Xperia keyboard (this one you can find here in xda).

Asking help for selecting Muliple language on my Keyboard.

Hello folks, thanks for taking the time to read or help with my problem.
I just received my galaxy s4 Im very happy with it, now im encountering a problem with my keyboard. I rooted the phone and installed the Android 5.0.2 | Optimized CyanogenMod 12 builds [STABLE] I love it thank you .
Okay so I basically would like to Use multiple language on my Keyboard, I come from an iphone 4s and it was very easy to change languages I had a little icon and I could add unlimited amounts of languages and switch without trouble. Now Im having really a bad time, the stock keyboard let me select only 1 input language, I tried Swiftkey even bough a theme similar to ios, but I find Horrendous I hate that the numbers and special icons are all together, and even after adding my languages, I cant slide or select by pressing the space bar. On top of that is crashing . I Need actually to have 4 Languages Input and be able to switch easy and nice. If any one could help me out that would be awesome Thank you very much
There should be some options in the Language & input settings.

Then download google keyboard. It's basically the same, but I know it supports multiple lanaguages..after they have been downloaded.
Or, they keyboard thst I'm using, multiling keyboard. Attention as there also is a multiling O keyboard. They are both by the same developer. They're both very lightweight.
Man you rock, in using Google keyboard exactly how I wanted thanks again.
