AOSP Spell checking uses wrong dictionary
Since the upgrade from 16.0 to 17.1 on my S4 (i9505/jfltexx) spell checking on my device has stopped working for any language other than english. Since I communicate in mulitple languages (english, german) I need to be able to switch between dictionaries during input.
Expected Behavior
When I select german as my input language the spell checker also uses german as the language and thereby knows most of the german words.
Current Behavior
The spell checker marks most of my words as errors.
When I tap on a word it suggests english alternatives or allows me to add them to my personal dictionary for english.
Possible Solution
Make the spell checker recognize the currently active input language.
Steps to Reproduce
Prerequisite: Have at least one language other than english configured.
- Go to any messaging app.
- Choose the non-english language for input.
- Input some text → Swype uses the correct dictionary but words are marked by the spell checker.
