erinja:Which version of Android do you have?
Android 4.1.2 on an LG Lucid 2 smartphone. This is not the latest version of Android, nor is this a latest version phone. I got it for almost nothing (modest setup fee and a customary two-year contract with a wireless carrier I was already using for a simpler device). It displays the supersigned letters with no problem. I just don't have a way of entering them. My needs are actually rather simple, and a simple phone is adequate. I just would like to be able to enter the letters for a dictionary search.

I don't know if there is a better solution but if there isn't and if you don't have an unreasonable allergy to undirect type methods, you can save one of this pages in your phone:

http://komputeko.net/konvertilo.htm
http://remush.be/esperanto/alunikodo.html

Write there the word, convert it and copy and paste it in the dictionary.

I have a seven years old non-Android smartphone, as old as the first version of Android (probably a little bit older) and that works fine for me.

Ĝis, Novatago.

Thank you for the suggestions. ridulo.gif I looked at both of these pages. However, I do not know how to copy and paste with the phone, as I do with a regular computer, and going to a web page, typing in, converting, copying, and pasting seems like a lot of work just to be able to look up one word in a dictionary. But I do appreciate the response.

Ok. ridulo.gif But That only is annoying if you have to look a lot of words.

Anyway you can't say there isn't options to do it. And think you are lucky because in the old times spanish speakers just hadn't ways like that to type ñ and accented vowels, in fact even today, many databases don't handle spanish letters. And as far as I know in spanish there isn't a official alternative way to write ñ. Well, it is only a letter…

Ĝis, Novatago.

Have you tried AnySoft Keyboard (ASK)? You can download an Esperanto plugin for it.

Thanks. ridulo.gif I will take a look. As an older person untrained on all the most modern devices I am not sure how some of these work, but maybe I can figure it out to see if I want to try to use that.

I just installed ASK. At first glance it seems like it will do what I need. Thanks very much for the information.
