Left softkey to messaging - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

I would like to point my left softkey to messaging.
I know the registerkey but don't know what to point at.
Messaging.exe doesnt work.
Poutlook doesn't either.'
Anyone knows wat to fill in?

What kind of messaging? Your inbox?
V

All of them yes.
But, i found it allready.
It should be tmail.exe.
Thanks !

What I miss is the 113 key for the right button.
I have an Qtek 9000 with an Ext Rom from O2.
Is it normal that the 113 key is missing in that Rom?

by default yes, but you can easilly add it back, just follow the 112 layout

Ok, thanks.
Will try that.

Setting national characters. How to?

is there any tweak that would allow to configure Universal keyboard, to enter national characters from WWE ROM?
I mean pressing key sequences to enter special characters, like:
',' + 'c' to issue a 'ç'
'´' + 'a' to issue a ´á'
...
The regional settings, doesn't hep on these.
Maybe a registry keyboard layout setting for Portuguese!?
Hi,
using the SYM key, near the SPACES key, will solve your problem? By pressing this key when you are wrinting some national character, w'll find in this process a nice way to solve your problem.

It works. Thanks.
Took a few seconds to figure out how it works, after your hint.
Great!

You can change the order of the special characters in order to suit more to your needs. There is a file ‘sym.txt’ at the windows folder. You have to edit this one. The best way to do is to copy the file to your desktop computer, do the necessary changes and copy back to your XDA.

keyboard messed up, registry hacks??

Hi Forum,
I installed the japanese IME as it was discribed at another forum (http://www.firstloox.org/forums/showthread.php?s=c973622a044a5a4a87c1f6099f097d74&t=4510), and it seems to work almost perfect on my qtek 9100, new German ROM installed. Only problem: the program changes the keyboard settings, means that I can't use the symbol- key (function+space) any more, so ä, ü, ö, ', ... are gone. I already tried AEKMap, when downloading the German keyboard file, it doesn't show up within the program. I inserted a new string called "Locale" to the registry-settings at HKCU/ControlPanel/Keybd etc., as it was posted here http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=44489
-nothing helped. Do I miss something?? I will go to Japan next Saturday and desperately neeeeeed a Japanese IME- but also my German keyboard layout!
Greetings from Berlin,
Andreas
Hi again, some more information: It seems that the keyboard is working, the only thing which doesn't work is the "symbol"-key (the "blue dot + space"-combination). Does anybody know if there's something hidden in the registry how I can re-map it and get it back to work??
Thanks,
Andreas
There's a text file you'd need. You can easily create this yourself, though it might help to just find it somewhere.

A pre-made on is in:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=43680&highlight=french+german
Hi ZeBoxx,
doesn't work for me, unfortunately. As I said, the layout of the keyboard is ok, only thing is the missing function of the "symbol"-key. I played around with different keyboard settings, they all work ok BUT this symbol think doesn't. Any other ideas??
Andreas
Did you specifically read this last part?
Symbols List - Changing the symbols when using the Sym hardware key along with a regular key (select devices)
Change the Symbols List
To change the Symbols List simply find the file "\Windows\sym.txt", and edit + save this file. The structure of the file is pretty straight-forward:
On each line, type the regular letter or number for the key as it is when normally pressed. Follow that letter up with the alternative characters ('Symbols') in the order you wish for them to appear. For example, from a WWE ROM:
eèéêë
This will replace the letter 'e' when using the Sym key with 'è', then when striking the Sym key again with 'é', then 'ê', and so on.

Sure, but as I said, it's not the problem that this text file is wrong or anything- it seems that the symbol key doesn't work at all. No matter how many times I use this combination (blue dot + space), nothing changes, no effect on any letter/symbol/etc.
In the meanwhile I did a hard reset, installed all the apps again, same issue. I uninstalled the japanese IME, back to normal. I'm pretty sure that this prog changes some registry setting I need for the use of the symbol-key- I searched the whole registry, but since I'm not familiar at all with this I didn't find anything helpful...
Andreas
got exactly the same problem. Searching Internet and all but I dont find any solution: there must be a registry entry enabeling it but where...
Yep, got the same problem. Finding it hard to search for relevant problems to do with this. Any help would be apprieciated.

Very quick question about Texting via Keyboard

On my XDA Mini S, when I was texting via the keyboard, after I had entered the name in the "To" field, I could just use the tab button to skip to the main message body.
This doesn't seem to work on my Vario II and I just wondered if there was a way, via the keyboard, of skipping to the message body (I have tried tab, enter, arrow keys etc..).
I know it is a really small thing but I just find it annoying when texting, if I am using the keyboard, to have to use the touch screen to skip fields.
Thanks
On my TyTN, pressing the down arrow key does exactly what you want. You may have more luck (read: get more useful answers) if you post your question again in the XDA Mini S forum
Cheers
Daniel
there is an easy way to jump between fields just use the scroll wheel
this does exactly what you want
JEREMY
Thanks guys. I just tried the scroll wheel whilst composing a new text and all it does on my Vario II (Tytn) is scroll the page down but it doesn't actually move the cursor, it just leaves it in the "To" field so if I start to type, I am still in that field. That is the same as what happens when I use the down arrow key
If it works on yours though then perhaps I have inadvertently changes some settings somewhere, god knows where though because I can't find any settings that look like they would make a difference to this.
You're not the only one with this....I just noticed it this morning...can't switch fields from the To bit to the message box...it's annoying.
Field switching
Wonder if this just applies to certain TyTn brands (ROMs)- My HTC TyTn switches field with Hard and Soft keyboard using Tab, Scroll and Down Arrow. Also looked for any settings that might change this behaviour - namely keyboard in Settings but could not in my case stop above keys from moving cursor to next field.
Mike
Oh well, not to worry, like I said, it is only a little thing but just a little annoying.
The scroll wheel & up and down arrows do skip fields in other instances, just not when composing a new text message.
I am sure I can learn to cope
might be a tmobile thing. I have the voda version and the tab button does what you need.
is it to do with the screen input method. I get some funny quirks from the keyboard if the screen input is set to anything but the soft keyboard
Yeh, I think you have probably hit the nail on the head in that it is probably a ROM thing.
Hopefully when there is an updated T-Mobile ROM they will change it (fingers crossed )
I've got a tmobile vario 2 and the scroll wheel works fine to move between fields in text message mode

How strange. My scroll wheel works fine if I am looking at messages and want to move from one to the next but all it does when I am composing a text is operate the righthand scroll bar ... it leaves the cursor in the exact same place.
My ROM is 1.21.110.3, is yours the same? (as far as I know there is only one UK T-Mobile Rom)
yeah I got the same rom
I can also switch fields when texting by using the tab button just checked

Damn, want to swap phones (only kidding)
I might try a hard reset to see if that sorts it out but I am not sure I am annoyed enough by it yet to go to that extreme as it would involve a lot of backing up and reinstalling
I may have the solution, those of you having problems with the tab button while in text messaging have you at some point changed the behavour of the directional pad for use while in internet explorer? On my Vario II i changed mine and i had exactly the same problem as you guys, i changed it back and it was sorted, tab button worked fine. Check the below registry field. Hope this helps!
to re-enable hyperlink/form field navigation:
\HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Navigation\4-Way Nav = 1 (DWORD decimal)

Same here, the wheel, tab and arrow keys changed fields for me before until I changed the way PIE scrolls in the registry.

Fantastic, problem solved ... thanks so much Padlad
Over the past few weeks I have installed trials for loads of different PPC software, a couple of which related to PIE tweaks so I can only guess that it must have been one of these that changed the registry setting. Thanks again
whooops yeah I think I posted that tweak up here as well in someone elses thread
doh!
so now that pie is back to scrolling between links...which is even more annoying...anyone know how to change the wheel behaviour to scroll however many lines you want it to. it could hopefully just be a reg hack or something.
thanks

I have got a vario 2 and I can press tab to do it on the keyboardor the down arrowor the scroll wheel - sorry

is it possible to write a message without

is it possible to write a message on the qtek 9100 (wizard) without using the stylus. When i open the new message menu and input the number i can't move to writing with both cursors on keyboard or 5way joystick...when i press down on both it just moves the scrollbar but not the writing cursor...please help or tell me if it is the same with your wizards...thanks in advance!
if you're using the keyboard you can do it.
type in the number you want to send it to then push the "tab" key and it will move down into the message body.
- Tatusmi
no, this is not the way i tried it...does it happen with your wizard?
The tab key to change fields works perfectly on my wizard...
do you mean fields in the write new mesage menu does the tab change between recipient and text menus?
I'm not sure I understand what your asking...
Tab would take me from the to field to, say, the body field.
Is that what your asking? Are you trying to get tab to do something else? Like cycle through the contacts when you hit "Menu" -> "Add Reciepient"? That I do with the D-Pad...
when i write a new message i input the number and want to start writing the text. but when i hit the tab button it scrolls the scrollbar the same way the navi button does...it just moves the screen "down" but the cursor stays in the phone number field...
Try pressing Shift and then the down arrow on the keyboard.
I noticed this issue when I first got my Mini S however I also noticed that in later revisions of the ROM they have changed this behaviour so that tab, shift and the down arrow both move the cursor from the To field to the body field.
when i press "shift" and then "down" it happens the same as if i press just down or tab...it scrolls the scroll bar at the right...the tab changes the field i every other menu i repeat EVERY except the menu when you write sms...my rom is the latest on te qtek site 2.17.0001 os 2.17.7.2 is there any newer OFFICIAL rom?please tell me that also(;...please verify this thing in the write sms menu not in any menu with fields because the tab doesn't work only there...weird huh?

I hope I have the reason for not being able to jump from one field to the other without using stylus: it happens when you are using smooth scrolling in internet explorer by the help of a third party program i.e. like tweaks 2k2, spb pocket plus etc.
Try to look if you have somehow enabled smooth scrolling, disable it and make a soft reset. After that messaging without stylus should work again.
Hope it helps!
Kind regards
M.
I had the same problem, and this is the solution for me!
You should change the settings in the following key:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Navigation\
open key "4-Way Nav" and set value=1
THANKS MAN! I appreciate that you wrote those words for me i hope it returns to you someday...cheers

Full Qwerty Keyboard turns into number keypad

Whenever a sms is open, the touch screen keyboard that is opened is supposed to be full qwerty. However, mine has turned in a number keypad. There is no way i can change to full qwerty again. I can change into transcriber, block recognizer, letter recongnizer but cannot revert back into qwerty. How can this be?
Even a soft-reset cannot solve this. Can anyone help? Thanks
If I tap the "Up" arrow next to the SIP "Show/Hide" icon I get a popup menu that offers ...

Phone Keypad (this will be what you have selected)

Did you turn on the T9 option with HD Tweak? This caused the same problem on the Touch HD, might be the same on the TP2.....just an idea....

Er Dave.... thanks for the suggestion. I already know how to change different input options from arrow up key. Sorry I didnt make myself clear earlier.
The problem is that even when I choose qwerty.... the number keypad still appears. It has happened before and the only way I can go back to qwerty is to go back to previous backup setting.
I'm just wondering if anyone else has faced any problem like this.

Hi michi, I never use HD tweak and T9 option before. Only use qwerty and hardware keyboard only. This number keypad just appeared out of nowhere.

See... funny thing is that 5hrs ago, I backed up the device. During this time, I did not install any software and hardly used the phone except for some sms and inputing new contact info. Suddenly, the qwerty keypad input doesn't appear any more.
I just restored my backup and the qwerty keypad is up again. Hope someone knows what is going on, if not, I have to backup everyday!!!
It happened to me too. I changed the registry so I could map keyboard keys to emulators, changing the eT9 IME to the windows mobile default. Perhaps you have done this? If so, change the values back and it fixes the problem after a soft reset.
I think the registry location was HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts
Layout Text should be "eT9 IME",
Ime File should be "\windows\eT9ime.dll"
I have same problem
I give up on the keyboard for now. Not sure what broke it and I didn't backup everyday. Registry looks a bit different for me.
I did this previously at it work very well.

Simply change these two registry keys under:

Ime File : \windows\xt9ime.dll change to Ime File :\windows\compime.dll
and
Layout Text : XT9 IME change to Layout Text : COMP IME
And soft reset.

Today it happened again.... lucky I backup last night. 1 hour ago everything was still working. Again.... no new software or settings changed. What could be the problem?
I checked the settings are still the same.... now even suggested words don't appear.
Sigh... until a solution can be found... I just have to keep doing backup / restore....

but I have a different problem. (had this before the reg edit)
my problem is: If I write hello it'll automaically become hellHello... and if I write it it'll become iIt.. I switched off capitalization but tht didn;t help!!

I just started having this same problem today. I tried cjatcti remedy, and it worked so far . QWERTY keyboard is back to normal. If the phone keyboard comes back, I'll let you all know.
Excellent work. Worked very well so now I have the word selection and the keyboard I like. THANKS
Wish
I would have seen this thread before I hard reset.
Changing the CurrentET9Style from 1 back to 0 works ... but once I go into, say edit a contact, then the number pad will re-appear again. The registry key is modified back to 1 again ... any quick trick to stop this? really don't want to change the key again and again...
I use my Kaiser with the ROM PDA Corner Ultimate X-v9 a six months ago without any problem. Today i saw the first page of the forum the application SMSer from "oldsap". I found interesting and tried to install. Soon after the installation I was testing it and realized that I had the same problem as everyone here. Changing CurrentET9Style from 1 back to 0 solved my problem. I think in my case the problem appeared after the installation of SMSer, so i uninstaled and my QWERTY is working normal now.
