No Umlauts on hardware-keyboard after upgrade... - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin

Hi,
I upgrade to the latest HTC-WWE-Firmware downloadable on xda-developers. Before I had a german Keyboard (y and z are changed for example).
I applied the last registry hack on http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Registry to switch back to the german keyboard.
I put in these values:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload]
"Default"="e0010407"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload\1]
"Default"="e0010407"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty]
"Layout"="132103" (which means 20407 in Hex)
now the strange part:
With the english keyboard I can get the U-Umlaut for example by pressing u and then the blue dot and the space key. Unfortunately many other keys are changed then (y and z for example).
After applying the registry-hack above I have a german keyboard with z and y at "correct" positions but u + blue dot + Space key does not work anymore for getting Umlauts.
Can anybody help me? This is very nasty.

This is done by modification to \Windows\Sym.txt, get it from previous ROM.

The file I attached is from o2 germany's 1.25.207.1 ROM

still no Umlauts
Hi,
thanks for your quick help.
Unfortunately that seems to be not the problem. I have a correct sym.txt under \windows\sym.txt
If I press u-key + blue dot + space key there appears nothing. Normally there should be at least an á or à if I had the normal english sym.txt but it appears nothing after I changed the registry-keys above. Without the registry-keys changed I get umlauts and all those other special characters with the combination blue dot + space key but then the z and y and many other keys like : / & and so on are in a "wrong" position (from the view of a german ).
Any other ideas?

Perform a Softreset after replacing the sym.txt and the Welt ist wieder in Ordnung.

Still not working...
I replaced the sym.txt did a soft reset and it's still not working. Could it be that it's a issue with the new firmware?
It behaves like Windows Mobile is looking for a different sym.txt when the registry-settings are set to the german layout.
All other keys are working perfectly. It's just the blue dot + spacebar which does not work.

I just flashed the newest htc rom and came across the same problem. is there any new solution to this? the sym.txt I have right now is the correct one.

I upgraded to latest 1.35 and also got a keyboard issue (like "Y" and "Z" are reversed), this even after applying all the registry changes advised in the WIKI.
WIKI does not mention anything about this "sym.txt", thus I did not bother to extract it from my old rom.
Now where will I find the correct "sym.txt" for a "French Switzterland" keyboard?

I also had this problem. The thing is: ONLY change the Qwerty-key ... leave the other two alone (that is: e0010409 for WWE ROMs) ... then everything will work again. You might want localized versions for: autocorrect.txt, dictprob.dat, mssp2_XX.lex, statdict.dat and sym.txt. Extract them from a ROM for your region...

Umlauts are available now!
Thanks a lot! What a simple solution That was definitely something which I should have found out by myself.
Anyway, thank you. The Umlauts are back now.

yeah, awesome. thanks for the help mbirth!

hm, I was just looking for autocorrect.txt, dictprob.dat, mssp2_XX.lex and statdict.dat but couldnt find them anywhere in the windows dir. can someone tell me where they are located?

For me the files are now at those paths:
C:\Windows\autocorrect.txt
C:\Windows\dictprob.dat
C:\Windows\mssp2_ge.lex
C:\Windows\statdict.dat
Also the registry key HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Spell Check\Main_Dict has to contain the path to the mssp2_ge.lex ... so:
Main_Dict = "\windows\mssp2_ge.lex"
I found a German Language pack from Wundi somewhere here ... it contains the files and sets this and the Qwerty-registry-entry.
Maybe you hide the ROM files? I also have the original mssp2_en.lex And I'm almost sure, if I delete the newer dictprob, statdict and autocorrect, I will see the original versions again....
Cheers,
-mARKUS
P.S.: I prefer Total Commander for file management. It has an option "Hide ROM files" ... this has to be turned off to be able to see files in ROM.

mbirth, I followed your advice and reversed the changes made in the two other reg, and only changed the Qwerty' key to French-Switzerland, but without success so far. I know there must be a solution and I look forward to finding it...

keyboard problem

ok so i just got my mda vario 2 i unlocked it and flashed with a cingular rom, everything works fine. except the keyboard most of the letter show up on the screen as they should. example j=j but when i push y i get z and when i push z i get y then none of the shift symbols work. anyone care to tell me what im doing wrong. i tried the reg editor should i say i tried to but didnt do anything im trying to get english input on my dutch mda
Read here, comments #29 and #30 for the problem on the "shift" symbols:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=277664&p=1019415
Also your Vario II has german keyboard layout (QWERTZ instead of QWERTY), so you need to change this through registry:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Registry
The suitable value for German Hermes keyboard is 20407 (132103 in decimal).
ok bare with me
i Goto the following registry entry
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty]
right i did that
There is a key called 'Layout' and it is in Decimal.
suitable value for German Hermes keyboard is 20407 i entered that then waited about a minute then did a soft reset. but i still get the same problem, and for the shift key problem do i a hard reset and right as it getting ready to install the cingular cab i softreset it,
mot letting shortString_keypad_XML.CAB install, but what about the otherthings what will i be missing and where do i find them
Read a bit down in the reigstry wiki page....
oops putting in the wrong key thanks
Anyone know the values for the Cingular 8525? The US value on the MS site isn't working, and neither is the default values given on the wiki

AKU3.3 Keyboard remap

Hi !
I would like to remap keyboards to French. I tried some reg hacks but they dosen't work.
Do you know good tricks !
Thx !
Did you change HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\Qwerty\Layout ?
This changes the layout for the sliding keyboard. I changed mine from Swedish (value 0x20414) to US English (value 0x20409). French should be 0x2040c according to the Hermes Registry Wiki.
Registry
Argh ! What are the reg files you have modified/created ? I changed all to 040C (French) but the keymap is still in english.
Thx !
I tried this too, but upon soft resetting, the value has switched back to the swedish setting

Just wait for a couple of minutes after the Registry modification before resetting the device. As WM needs to flush the memory.... then it will work, I've just done it on my Hermes.

AP 4.0 : how to change the HW keyboard from QWERTY to AZERTY

Hi,
I upgraded my x7500 to AP 4.0 yesterday.
I have an azerty keyboard but since I upgraded to AP 4.0 I only can get QWERTY layout on the physical keyboard (ie : when I type on "a" I get a "q").
How can I change that?
I searched on many posts, I couldn't find the registry tweak...
Thanks a lot and congrats to the AP Team

I believe that you have to changed the kbdhid.dll file but not sure as i have never tried
doo you know where this file is?
you just need to create this key
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty] "Layout"= 2040c
should the type be "string" ?
'cause it doesn't seem to work. I'm still in QWERTY mode...
no one's got an idea?
If it's 2040c, that's usually a dword....
it dosn't work with dword. only string.
in any case it has no effect on my kbd layout.
it's a real pain in...
did I miss something?
Ok, if anyone has the same problem :
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty] "Layout"= 2040c
This works BUT it has to be done from a reg edit on the ppc, not on the computer.
I really don't understand why but when I tried to do it from a computer, it told me it was an incorrect value for a DWORD...
From the ppc it was ok

Nike Diamond I Beta rom

I'm just uploading the beta of the WWE version
It will be in ENG, ESN, FRA, GER, ITA, NLD, PTG, DAN, NOR, PLK and RUS
Please remember that it's a beta.
Anyway please test it and see if something is not working.
ThrottleLauncer is not in this version because the version I'm using is still in development (So it like a clean rom but not totaly clean)
what you will not find in the rom and will not be added to the rom is
Cube
Audio Manager
EndKey
Actionscreen
HTC Home
the Above are replaced by ThrottleLauncher in final release
MP3 trimmer
HTC Audioboost
MMS
MS Live
MSN.
there are cabs for these if needed
SO whats in it then
Touch Dual dialer (Diamond skined)
Larg Startmenu
Large Titlebar
Random access
Diamond Kayboard(English only in beta, the languages versions will have english + the country the rom is set to default)
Camera Album (Only English menus)
YouTube player (not diamond one)
ThumbCal
Paint
Java
Office( Excell and Work)
and the usual MS software
the rom is also UC
Fixed the camera and Hardware keyboard at least for 16 Key version (My girlfriends Nike has 16 keys)
Mediafire download link: Nike Diamond I Beta2 rom
nice looking rom. only problem i can see immediatly is the hardware keyboard is only giving numbers no letters. will keep testing along with throttle .91
Looks nice. The problem I also see is with the hardware keyboard 20 keys version. The 16 keys version will work with the modified cabs I made of Gullum's diamond keyboard. I haven't found a solution for the 20 keys version yet, but let's hope Gullum did.
i tried the orginal version of these cabs on a different rom but was only getting numbers then will try them again when i get chance. UK orange 16 key version

Is it the dahpd.kdb that makes the hardware keyboard work? for danish in this case
I'm kind of lost because I'm using my girlfriends dual for making this rom for a limeted time period
yeah that is one thing the other is that I left some registry keys out of the diamond keys cab. You can check the edited cabs in this post or in my 4shared folder.

Hi Gullum thanx for your work.
I just installed your rom,here are some quick findings before I go to sleep:
- I miss the connection setup wizard. Running it from the settings => connections menu gives an error. Running it from the windows dir gives me the same error.
With other roms it did initialize it after first start up. So now I don't have an internet connection so I can't figure out if the syncing and everything with internet works.
- UC is working great. It did it right after the normal setup without having to restart. Which it has when doing it manually.
- Hardware keypad doesn't work maybe you want to have a look at the edited cabs I made of your version and put these in. See my previous post
- There is no battery icon in the top bar only when you click on the time you see some status. It also isn't in the balloon thingy off the top bar.
Thats it for now. I will install another rom because I can't use my phone really without internet (calendar and contacts on exchange server) and I'm to lazy to set the internet connection up by hand
Thanx for the hard work and I'm looking forward to another test version.

I've have changed the RGU file so you can compare it with the original. What I basically did is:
- remove the Diamond keypad clsid registry keys (it seems like the Touch Keypad is somehow connected to the hardware keypad)
- changed the IME kdbfiles reg keys
- replaced the both the eT9.Nike.20Keys.0409.kmap.txt and eT9.Nike.20Keys.kmap.txt file with an empty file.
This works for the 16 keys version but the 20 keys version is not happy with replacing the txt files for an empty file. You could try the steps above without replacing the txt files or expirimenting a bit with the text files, but when making the cab it didn't work for me. Good luck.

The files for a Polish version I already added in my edited version of the Diamond keyboard so if you want to add the files you can find them in my post otherwise you can also have a look at my normal XT9 cabs for Dual.

ok, I missunderstand one thing and thought that this ROM is multilanguage so it is possible to have polish version of Rom not only XT9. shame on me
Bugs I've found:
1. start > settings > there is "Keypad QuickTasks" name visible without icon and I can't click it
2. start > settings > Network Config Wizard - there is an icon but without a name and when i clik on it an error pops up.
3. Dimond keyboard - hardware keypad can write only numbers (this bug is known already), and the list of available XT9 languages is long, so if I choose polish I can't write anything (only languages gullum includes works)

For Polish version I already have the Kaiser Polish WM6.1 but the problem I'm having is the initflashfiles.dat only has numbers for the links and folder I will try to add more language suport to these roms but it needs more work to port then the othere languages... but my coffie roms for Prophet also had Polish and Russian .
It's only the Kayboard that has suport for polish not a full rom yet but I am working on adding more versions. Good new are that when I've done it for one device it can be used for all devices I will suport... meaning I only have to do it once

Is it fixed ?
I can´t download the file.

EzInput Greek Configuration

Please help me!!!
I bought a brand new HTC Touch2 in December 2009 from a local shop in Greece. Originally, it had the Greek ROM preinstalled (the menus, commands e.t.c. were Greek and it had a special Greek/English Keyboard with a special Language Switching button above the Shift button).
However there were some problems. The Greek translation was awful and the phone often crashed. So, I decided to flash the English ROM. I flashed the HSPL - which I found in this forum - and then installed the original WWE ROM from HTC Pedia. Unfortunately, this ROM doesn't include a Greek Keyboard...
I tried everything (Fixes, Registry Hacks, EzInput Packages, Advanced Configuration Tool 3.3 and also tried to understand and edit the Registry keys: ezinput, ezsip, tegic). I realized that all the files needed for the Greek Keyboard existed in the Windows folder of the WWE ROM. So, what I need is the correct Configuration.
I am desperate... I don't know what to do. Can you help me please? Can you create a cab with the correct Configuration (either extracted from the Registry of a Greek ROM or cooked, maybe). Or, if that can't be done, can you upload a Greek ROM? I only need the Greek/English Keyboard (EzInput Configuration)...
Please, it is very important!
Thanks in Advance...

I had a very similar issue as you, using a WWE ASIA ROMand wanting a special Chinese input. Same situation: All files seem to be there, but no idea how to get the keyboard. What I did was install the Chinese ROM (would be the Greek one for you), hard reset, select the wanted keyboard, and dump the registry to a text file.
Next I installed the "target" ROM (WWE ASIA for me, WWE from HTCPedia for you), hard reset, and dump the registry again.
Then compare both registry text files. I searched for everything that looked like ezInput related, and finally figured out that for me I needed to change the following:
Code:
1) Delete these 3 keys:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{F50603D1-CF2F-41D8-A74B-651226633FF0}
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{5AAFAF99-8D99-4466-A66D-95C44B608A84}
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{9E06C6B8-FE4D-4206-9A5B-6E4C1B8B6AD7}
2) in [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\ezsip] change the following values:
"CurrentSIP"=dword:00000da4
"HWChineseMode"=dword:00000001
3) in [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Keytouch\Multiplay] change the following values:
"nSelectedIme"=dword:00000003
"DefaultIME"="ZY"
Maybe you can do something similar. Good luck!
PS: Here are my adventures described:
