Can't make multilingual typing work [EN/FR]

Harbard

Hi,
I'm currently running GrapheneOS Android 14 (2024012600) on the Pixel 8 Pro. I have 2 languages enabled in my system settings, English (System Language) and Français (France).

I want to be able to write, have suggestions and correction in both languages. I used to do that perfectly fine on my previous phone (LineageOS, Android 13) with the same settings on GBoard.

I replicated the exact same settings of the working from to my Pixel 8 Pro on GOS, but multilingual typing just doesn't work.

I've seen this issue: https://github.com/GrapheneOS/os-issue-tracker/issues/2539 the problem seems to be resolved for many, but not for me.

Is there anyone using Gboard and multilingual typing on Android 14 and having a smooth experience ?

Yes, I use it a lot. Works fine here. Did you try to change the spell checker to Gboard?

Harbard

TheGodfather Yes, GBoard Spell check. French keyboard with Multilingual typing (English). I've cut all network access to GBoard, could it be the issue ?

I also have it disabled. I remember vaguely that you might need to allow network one time, so it can download dictionaries.

Wow, indeed ! I just uninstalled it and reinstalled it, redid the setup with network allowed and disabled it afterwards, works like a charm like this ! Thank you very much !
