Russian keyboard layout misconfiguration - "4 rows" relates to both russian layouts, but is enabled only when phonetic russian is enabled.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Long tap on Enter key to open Keyboard Settings -> Keyboards
2. We have 2 Russian layouts here Russian and Russian Phonetic + Use 4 rows 
option.
3. Use 4 rows is unavailable if Russian Phonetic not selected
4. Selecting "Use 4 rows..." leads to 5 rows keyboard and vice versa: 
deselecting "Use 4 rows..." leads to 4 rows keyboard. 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

"Use 4 rows..." is working for both Russian keyboards for regular and 
Phonetic one, but we can change that option only IF Russian Phonetic is 
selected. I think an option must be selectable when or Russian OR Russian 
phonetic is selected in Keyboards.

Selection of "Use 4 rows..." is working opposite to what it says: when 
selected we have 5(!!!) rows and when deselected we have 4 - or there is a 
bug in description, or in option logic.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

HTC Hero, Android Os 1.5, softkeyboard version 20100201

It means 4 Russian characters rows (not counting the bottom SPACE row or the top
switch buttons row).
I can see why it is confusing, and I'm willing to change the text. Any 
suggestion?

Maybe leaving the current description is a good idea, but with changes in logic 
-
selected option means total 4 rows, not the Russian rows as currently.

And what about the availability of "Use 4 rows..." for both Russian layouts?

I rather not change the logic.
But I see that the code relates to the 4-rows check-box in both layouts. If the 
4
rows check box is checked, then both layouts will be 4 rows.

Yes, if the check box is checked, then both layouts will be 4 rows. I am talking
about the accepted problem: it is not possible to select "4 rows option..." if
Russian Phonetic is NOT checked.

As for description, maybe "Use 5 rows Russian layout" or "Use extended Russian
layout" (if not change the logic, or "Use compact Russian layout": if selected 
- 4
rows, if not - 5 rows)

OK.
So two issues:
1) (this one): the "4 rows" is enabled only when phonetic russian is selected
2) (please open a new one for that): the description "4 row" is שמ ambiguity 
- should
be "Use extended Russian layout"
