Default input abc instead of xT9 cab fix - Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development

Hi,
We've been having the same problem on disabling XT9 and there were no solutions. Good thing I found this. And few people including me tried it and it really really works! so, i share this with you all.. Cheers!

Yeeeaaaahhh
It Realy Works!
I Love You For That...
Thank You So Much

Rename your thread. This could be misleading. This does NOT disable xT9. It only changes the default input method to abc (which is much better for most of us non-english users).
Rename it to something like:
Default input abc instead of xT9 cab fix

there... I changed it heheh... Thanks But I also found out that somebody knew about this earlier. Too bad I didn't read the post.

But now your thread title is more descriptive and will definitely get more hits on search query results.

guys..is it working for WM 6.1?

Same here. I want permanent xt9, not ABC.

Here's another kick for the same request. Does anybody know how to switch to xt9 permanently? I've done a lot of searching but can't seem to find a solution. Much appreciated!

Thanksssssss !
So happy found this app, simply great ! Thanks

I found out how to set xT9 as the default (over ABC):
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Tegic\eT9\IME
-> set CarrierDefaultTextMode to 1 (the .CAB in this thread sets it to 0).
Now my keypad switches to T9 automatically when it pops up!

how about forcing qwerty mode always on, instead . is it possible?

i'm trying to get a touch dual (uk t-mobile latest stock rom) to default to xt9 rather than abc.
I've tried the CarrierDefaultTextMode fix mentioned below (adding the key as a Dword as it didnt already exist) but no change, it still defaults to abc when starting a new sms message or anything.
Before recently going back to t-mobile for a repair and them flashing it with the latest rom it defaulted to xt9 and the owner wants it to behave as it did.
Anyone got any other ideas?

PS Its running wm6.1 btw.

I have tryed this one myself. It workes perfect with T9!
Thanks Bensat,
But that's not what I'm looking for.
I mean when I use the keyboard(hardware one) I don't know if was on when I just get the phone, or maybe on another ROM
But when I was typing with keyboard, not only was T9 activate, but also memorize other words (my phone language is English, but I'm writing in Spanish, and Catalan) adding it to the database...
Anyone has idea of where to get it?
It may be only on Black Majic ROM ?(I think was that one the previous)

Default Keyboard during Phone Usage?

All,
Can anyone provide me the tweak or registry key to allow for me to continue typing on the thumb board while on a phone call? (Presently while talking, the system defaults to the number pad while talking)
Any help would be appreciated. I have seen a couple threads about changing the default keyboard config, but not for this one directly.
Thanks,
Bob

Interesting, so when you are in a call and you type an SMS or email at the same time, the "Y U I H J K B M N ." keys don't type numbers in their place? I would love to have the letters instead of only numbers. The numbers are a help in 2% of the cases, but for the most part, I want to type notes about phone calls and without having the thumb board working, I am stuck with the touchscreen and it is much slower for me.
Either way, I appreaciate your help

i just tested to confirm and yes that is correct. i was on a call and i hit notes and started typing and it types letters not numbers. i am looking at the reg files now
i used windiff to see if i could find a difference but there were sooooo many i could not find it sorry.
Thank you
Does anyone else have any ideas on how to set the keyboard mode while talking on the phone?

I'm using original spanish ROM WM6 and I have the same problem.
Me too
Let's bump this thread up the date sort:
AP 3.0, still. I can't get letters with the kbd at all when in a call, so I end up using an on-screen, or translating whatever I typed after the call. It sucks. I thought the active prg would dictate what happens with the keys. ???
I must admit the convenience of the automatic switch when in the phone app is nice.
I'm not getting why some units do this and some don't, or if it might be that people aren't using thier keyboards during a call in a different app.
Reg key? Any better ideas?

On screen keyboard or hardware keyboard? On screen works fine, hardware not since WM6.
its important to me, i would love to type using thumb keyboard while talking, i can confirm that vanilla version of 6.1 does that too but its a beta rom and i like AP4, maybe the athena project people can inlight us about this matter and creat a patch for us to use
for importancy am trying to keep this up, guys its doable, someone is required to just lead us, at least someone post me a clean (hard reseted) registery from a rom that works during call normally, and i will install it on my mobile (which doesn't type letters during call) if it works then at leaset we know its defenatly registry and there for i dedicate my life for it. any clean registry anyone can supply
PS am willing to Hard reset but not willing to reflash another rom am very tried from that business

If this drives you that nuts, then maybe you wouldn't mind doing a bit of investigation and sharing that with us?
Take a look at this registry key: HKLM\Software\HTC\SmartDialing\KeyboardMapping
There are some subkeys there, ToNum and ToSD. I'm guessing that those are responsible for the letter remapping. Would you mind taking a look and letting us know? Thanks!
Dialer/Dialer skine deppendent
It also could be that it is deppendent on dialer used in your system. Some dialers can switch keybaord to numbers and some can not. It would be nice if those who can write letters during a call could tell us which dialer is in their system.
Possible Path?
HKLM\Security\Phone\PhoneKeyMatch
Looks like this could be the ticket, will try to mess around with it and see if it makes any difference

Thanks for this great rom.
It looks great.
At last the screen comes on when I set an MP3 for the ringtone!!!
Great work.
Thanks for the ROM. Finally one without any Chinese stuff in it.
Just 2 more questions: does this ROM support use of SDHC cards and how to change the date style (from short to long date format)
1 - this and all other rom's dosn't support sdhc card's
2 - need to change it in registry editor
Thanks for the quick reply. Re the reg editor: do you know what key needs to be changed (and to what value)?
Can you please give a step to step guide, for how to install this rom on the SPV C550 please?

A few small problems I found:
MoBlue is only in Polish.
Some error messages (as from media player) are also only Polish.
Is there a way to fix this?
moblue is in english too, but you must change them i moblue settings or in registry editor.
about WMP i check it

Changed in registry: moblue.pl.lang.txt -> moblue.lang.txt
Do we have to flash some specificradio for WM6.1? This is the best rom so far, but i still have most common problems that occur with 6.1: phone keeps losing coverage and battery sometimes drains for no apparent reason.

For T9 try a download from hxxp://melgurth.ovh.org/index.php?page=downloads
The setting of SMS service center works fine for me
When I clear the entry, it was auto filled by the network,
when I modifiy the default, it stays as I enter the value.

You are not stupid man, just a little slow ..
No, in all sincerity. You have to use a REGISTRY EDITOR... use the attached file and install it to your phone. once you open it you will see a few "folders"... HKCU is HKey Current User... so follow the instructions and go by the "folder" names, edit the file they are quoting.
Hope this helps.

same problem on HTC touch pro2
Dear yulanz,
Any clue how to solve the same problem on HTC touch pro2 ?
string HKCU-controlPanel-phoneExtendFunction-cdma-msgtype doesnot exist there.
I searched registry for "msgtype".
It looks like that all names related to msgtype are located in
HKEY_CURRENT_USER - Software - Microsoft - Inbox - SMStext
But I could not find the key...
Thank you very much in advance!

Annoying bugs and more...

Dear XDA´ers,
Just got my hands on a HD2. Very pretty, nicely big. But some irritating flaws... wondering if you gurus could help me here. Please understand that I am a noob and have already searched the forum before. So please be gentle with me .
All versions below are stock ones:
ROM: 1.66.707.1 (76641) WWE (01/12/10) - Origin: I don´t have a clue (probably Asian, because of the keyboard options, but can´t locate the specific region)
RADIO: 2.07.51.22_2
OS Version: 5.2.21869 (21869.5.0.82)
Manila version: 2.5.19211619.0
1) Buggy SMS/MMS system. I can receive MMS, but cannot read them. They appear at the initial screen, but when I click over them to go to the "threaded view" it simply disappear... so it is marked forever as "not read" (bold lines). They also appear at the "All messages" option, but again, when I click over them, I get a blank threaded view.
2) Calendar and Appointments: how the heck can I schedule an appointment if I cannot choose the AM/PM option? The respective field is blank... is it possible to reinstall or replace this piece of code only (not the entire ROM) if I want to?
3) How can I get a portuguese T9?
4) How could a $600 gadget doesn´t let you choose a snoozing time interval? Am I stuck to the 5-min original interval? I know there are some programs that let you change it, but I´d like to stick to the Sense interface... know it sounds silly, but I got used to my old mobile where I could change those parameters.
5) Is there any "Tunewiki"-like software for HD2? I used it a lot at my old iTouch and I´d like to keep the lyrics synchronized to the music...
Thank you in advance for any help about the questions above.
First off the Stock ROMs tend to suck ...
1.) Do not and did not have this issue with my TMOUS HD2, not sure why it happened to you ..
2.) Sure it is not a 24 hour clock, mine is ...
3.) No clue ....
4.) G-Alarm is a nice replacement for the stock alarm, the stock one sucks ...
5.) There are a couple of apps like this for the HD2 Search around, I don't have links but I have seen them ....
You may consider looking into a custom ROM ....
Hi watcher64,
Thank you for your reply.
2) If it´s has a 24h clock option, I really couldn´t find where I should change that. But even so, the screen wouldn´t appear like the picture below, don´t you agree? AM/PM is missing here... ("red question marks" are mine )
5) Believe me, I did. None synchronizes the lyrics to the music (I mean phrase-by-phrase while music is playing...), that´s why I came here.
Regards!

2.) Start Menu>Settings>System>Regional Settings>Time, Select HH:mm:ss .
This is also where you set your AM/PM options, maybe it got screwed up ...

I'd advise installing BsBTweaks (on this forum) as a matter of course anyway, but there is an option to enable this feature in the program.
"Enable dismiss X time in notifications" is the one you need.

Hi watcher64,
2) My working path is different (probably because ROM version), but unfortunately, the AM/PM option is disabled (gray). I *will* consider upgrading the stock ROM. But there will be lots and lots of pages to read before that.
5) Nice try, but still not what I need. Check the S2P thread post #11 (can´t post links here), it doesn´t have autoscroll (like Tunewiki). That´s what I meant for "synchronized lyrics", maybe I was not clear enough, sorry. I´ll keep looking, anyway. Thx.

I´ll give it a try, thx. I would rather stick to Sense interface, but looks like it´s impossible. Too bad HTC did a nice interface mixed to such poor software...
I would suggest, being a portuguese HTC HD2 user, to try out the artemis roms. It has full translation to PTG and includes a portuguese T9. Try it out, i'm using it as of now and have found it quite an improvement over the stock rom.

Hi ei05035,
Actually there's no problem about using Hd2 with english version, but I miss a t9 library to help me out with faster typing during email/sms messages. So I'm wondering if I could keep the english O/S and replace some kinda T9 "language" library, if you know what I mean.
About the Artemis ROM, thanks for the tip, but I'm starting the loooong journey of learning about flashing a ROM and not turn your device into a paperweight. Even longer for a noob like me...
Cheers!
