change keyboard?

Post by SkogN » 09 Jun 2013 12:26

Hi!
Is there any action that can change the keyboard? Quite long way to change it manually:
Settings --> personal --> language and input.
I use my phone as a hand controller for playing snes on my nexus. I have to change keyboard (BT controller) to be able to use it and the app can not do it. I want to automate it to change the keyboard when starting and closing the app.
Cheers
Automagic >= All other apps

Hi,

Unfortunately this is only possible on rooted devices using action Set Default Input Method.
You can build a shortcut to the desired settings page on a device without root with action Launch App: com.android.settings/.Settings$InputMethodAndLanguageSettingsActivity.
There will be a new action in the next update of Automagic to directly open the keyboard selection dialog.

Regards,
Martin
