Ok, so this is really stupid. I ate my Android phone. i accedently pressed some button and now when i try to type a message its in f* chineese/japaneese. Cant find where i can switch back to normal????? i looked everywhere from message settings to language settings. The keyboard also looks more different. i tried to switch that also all in vain. help me please
 
Ok, first question - what type / model of phone are you using? It seem as if you might have change the language settings on the keyboard.
 
If it's only when you type, you probably change the keyboard language.

Go to menu>settings>language and keyboard then scroll down and find the keyboard you are using. If you never changed it, choose default android keyboard. Then find the language option and change it back to the language you want.
 
Really believe me i looked threw evry settings possible in this redicoulous phone and the only thing i can change is if i use japaneese or chineese symbols. i feel i just want to throw the phone out the window. i cant even return to standard android keyboard. :confused: i can find something weird called "POBox Touch for the japaneese language"
 
ok this is what i see: i go to:
settings > language & keyboard > 1. select language 2. user dictonary 3. japanese keyboard 4. chinese keyboard 5. international keyboard. what now?
 
Choose English or International keyboard, then check English. Either way, this should fix your problem.
 
i went to writing language and the options is on english/swedish/finnish/arabic, as i want it, but when i type sms its still on chineese/japaneese
 
Are you using Swype or some other keyboard? Could be you have to change the language withing the keyboard app's own settings, rather than the global ones. Like for Swype, you go to settings, keyboard, swype, language, not settings, keyboard, language. Hope that helps.
 
When you long-press on a text box and then select Input Method, what options appear?
