New here, so sorry for any mistake...
Long story short: I live in Brazil, so need to use portuguese language, but my keyboard is US layout. I was using Ubuntu 19.04 and the layout was something like "Portuguese (Brazil, int. alt.)", and it was a perfect match.
Few days ago I updated the system to 19.10 and this layout has vanished from options, so I searched internet a little and re-created it. The moment I did it worked flawlessly, until I turned off the system. Now my Ubuntu does not recognize Portuguese. I'm using the US layout, but can't use any "latin signs".
Any guesses? Thanks!

Finally! I got a way to solve the problem. First of all, thanks Gunnar for your dedication haha.
So, the only way I could resolve it was:
1 - I took another machine with Ubuntu 19.10 just installed and checked if it works.
2 - I've made a copy of 3 files from the other machine and used overwrote in mine. They where: /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/evdev.xml, /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/pt.txt and /etc/boot/environment.d/90atk-adaptor.conf
*The first file, evdev.xml, tells the system all the existent keyboard layouts
*The file pt.txt, is the configuration to all portuguese layouts
*The file 90atk-adaptor.conf, turns on the caracter "Ç" when pressing " ' " + "c"
3 - Rebooted my laptop to aply changes
Now it works: ã á ç
