Android Emulator Has Chinese Characters

I recently started using eclipse and an AVD emulator to develop android apps for a droid. Everything is going fine, except when i type in the emulator it returns chinese characters. My location is set to en-us, so not sure what is going on.

Any t开发者_如何学Gohoughts?

You can change the input method by long-pressing on an input field and choosing Input Method → Android Keyboard. you can also long-press on the bottom-left key on the virtual keyboard.

You can run such two commands to remove Pinyin IME (so latin would become default):

> adb shell

# mount -rw -o remount /dev/block/mtdblock0 /system

# rm /system/app/PinyinIME.apk

the same, but easier to put into Jenkins:

> adb shell mount -rw -o remount /dev/block/mtdblock0 /system

> adb shell rm /system/app/PinyinIME.apk

You can first check which device is mounted to /system by running

# mount

in adb shell.

If you need to remove another IME - just change a filename in "rm" command. Note: this will remove Pinyin IME completely. While you're not completely sure - don't do it on real devices as it would be hard to bring that IME back :)
