I have made android app. my client ask me that change default language at soft keyboard case by case. one case, keyboard should be English keyboard, another, Korean keyboard.
how can i do?
thx.
Android should provide there keyboard with a broadcast receiver which accepts some kind of intents to change its language. so users can use intent to access keyboard language.

In my application I need only english keyboard. If user changes the language(hindi) in settings page(input & language)keyboard inside my application also changes to hindi language. How to restrict keyboard to English language only?
#CommonsWare's answer is correct.
However, you should probably filter the input anyways. Forcing English keyboard doesn't force user to use only English letters. User can still long press a character or have a non-english hardware keyboard.
You could listen to text change events and reject all characters that are not accepted by your DB at that point.

My Android application has multi language support.my problem is if I select the language(from application) then app will changed to corresponding language but keyboard is still in system language any idea to change the keyboard language too.
This isn't really that possible.
The keyboard is itself an application. Therefore, you cannot change it directly from your app, nor can you guarantee that your user will have the "Arabic" charset or addon or whatever, for they keyboard app that they employ.
Your only real and reliable solution if you wish to accomplish what you need would be to create your own keyboard input. Otherwise, it will be in the user's hands to change their keyboard to Arabic.

thanks for your help.
I doubt you can write such APP, this would violate lots of security measures in android. But you can write your own custom soft keyboard:

Unfortunately, you can not change the locale of the user from withing your application.
This is not possible until the date of this question.
Swiping the spacebar to change the locole (language) is a behavior due to the android's default soft keyboard.
