I just realized that several special characters are mapped wrongly on my keyboard. For example, when I press the "?", the blue dot and "F" key, I get a dash instead of a "?".
Has anyone seen this problem? And is there a fix for it? I have the Cingular 8525. About 4-5 special characters are mapped wrong.
Ugh.
what rom did you flash your 8525 too? or what cabs have you put in your ext rom?

I have the shipping ROM with no ExtRom loaded.
thats cause there is a cab in the ext rom that maps the keyboard
check the wiki...It a simple reg edit

OK. Are you talking about the section that describes restoring local language support for sliding keyboard? I already had those key/values suggested. But it still has the problem.
Someone mentioned it was a cab that loaded the mapping. Anyone know which one? I'll take a look to see if it's obvious.
None of the below extcab looks to be for keyboard.
CAB: \Extended_ROM\MT_PC_Hermes_GenericLight_REG_060609.CAB
CAB: \Extended_ROM\MT_Shortcut-MMS-Hermes.CAB
CAB: \Extended_ROM\C_Cingular_GoodEmail_081606.sa.CAB
CAB: \Extended_ROM\C_getmail.ppc2005(HTC8100).ARMV4Rel.cingular.CAB
CAB: \Extended_ROM\C_HSDPA_Wirelss_Modem_Stall.cab
CAB: \Extended_ROM\C_Hermes_MobiTV.CAB
CAB: \Extended_ROM\C_GetTeleNav.CAB
CAB: \Extended_ROM\T_mm1lib_DLL.CAB
CAB: \Extended_ROM\PP_PIE_Default.CAB
CAB: \Extended_ROM\SMS_Setting_07Jun06.CAB
Go Here....http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Registry
then look for
Restore local language support for sliding keyboard after upgrade to a different language ROM
Now you will have to try to figure out which ID you need. I think the english on is the one you are currently using now. You may need to ask a 8525 user to check their registry for the language code you need.

Anyone with a 8525 care to check what value you have in the Defualt key:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload]
"Default"="e0010414"
thanks

Yup, that's what I have. So it appears that isn't the cause of my problem.
I think you have to look at
HKLM\Software\OEM\Qwerty\"Layout"=263177 (integer)
The CAB file is in Cingular's 1.30 ExtROM:
ShortString_Keypad_XML.CAB
If this is correct, please add it to the wiki FAQs.

sorry I should have made myself more clear. the mentioned registrys are already on my system.
If that cab is required to map the keys, why is it only on the older rom?

i just wanted to confirm that the ExtROM listed in the wiki for Cingular 1.34 is missing this cab and needs to be added as well as added in the Config file....cheers...

Hi all,
I'm building my own touch rom and i had a question:
How do i enable autorun on first boot to load a .tsk file.
I've searched and tried a couple of thins but it dind't work.
Gr. bram
you must edit your extended ROM for that or just replace Default_stwater_xxxx.gif files in Windows directory to make default theme. For color it's in the default.hv file

other help :
In the Extended ROM use cusTSK.exe
in "Config.txt" add a line like :
Code:
EXEC:\Windows\cusTSK.exe \Windows\bram_smulders_TSK.tsk
That 2 ways to do the same things.
Have a good ROM coocking
You better use the cusTSK.exe method (extended rom, autorun) because if you use an OEM package with registry settings you will have a bug:
When u go and change to another theme on your rom, then go back to the default, the colors will not be the ones you set on the reg settings, but the wm6 default ones.
So better use the CusTSK.exe, that way you dont mess with the registry and you wont have any bugs.

No ! Not in OEMfolder but in Extended ROM, and the line of code in the config.txt from Extended ROMtoo
Most new ELF extracted Roms don't have Ext rom anymore.
Indeed noonski,
i've got it working via another way, but now it launches every boot, and that's very anoying...
Hmmm... mayb i have to write an own ext rom for the touch.
anyone experience with this?

I've tried downloading a couple of different cabs for the EnlargeStartMenu but none of them seems to work.
One of them did show an icon at settings but no text underneath and clicking it didn't work.
I noticed itje's ROM has one included so I geuss there's a working one out there.. somewhere..

what language are you using? if wwe just search and you shall find
ive tried many, but only the one in my language works correctly.
I've got a Dutch X1. However, when using the WWE version can't you alter some of the files on your phone (change 409 to 413 in my case, if I remember correctly)

correct, but i recomend you ask any dutch xda member to post the enlargestartmeny.dll and copy to windows (if your running dutch ROM)
otherwise it should work out of the box so to speak, if your running wwe ROM.
are you running anything else that could interfere with the startmeny, like xxxxxmeny or anything?
I found it on this forum somewhere

This cab works, however, it shows "Settings" and "Programs" in both my own language and english and clicking the english one wont work, so its basicly 2 wasted icons.
Have the same problem with the blackstone startmenu, and nobody has an idea what to do with it. I think you´ll have to look for a cab from a rom in language you have.

hi folks, hope someone han help with this.
i'm trying to cook in the latest version of swype (cabbed by lord yuz. from a 'certain' site)
i've converted the cab to an ext but even though it builds it's not opening the keyboard. i can't see what i'm doing wrong but if anyone has a working package or any ideas what i'm missing i'd be grateful
thanks
Chris
You need to replace 'ModelName.txt' in Operatorpkg with a T-Mob modelname.

thats what i initially thought from earlier versions but i understood this version was cracked to avoid that requirement?
thanks for the advice mate, i'll give it a go
If you are using ervius kitchen, and you created the EXT from the CAB,
normally on your app.dat file you will have only "Directory("\Windows\Swype...")"; try to exchange all of them with the equivalent like "Directory("\Program Files\Swype...")" the problem is that you will have a duplicate of all your file (each in windows directory and also in program files\swype directory).
To make it your default SIP use this reg key in your app.reg.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip]
"DefaultIm"="{7D51A54F-14D0-4eda-AC8D-0AE175C344E8}"
I hope it will help you.

cheers mate, i've tried the modelname and no joy the ext i'm using is writing to the windows directory, i've edited all the paths but no joy on it working. also it's not duplicating the files.
i've cooked in nuesipdefault so swype is selectable. gives the option to choose.
any other ideas from anyone as i'm really stuck with this
maybe you will need also this on your app.reg
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Swype]
"DataDir"="My Documents"
"FirstTime"=dword:1
"InstallDir"="\\Program Files\\Swype"
Swype is one of those apps that cant be set only in windows... sorry bud but it seems that some paths are hardcoded inside the exe file not just in regs, i tried sometimes and cant make it works just in windows\

Oh forget it the link is dead now
if this doesn't work try the swype packages from chucky kitchen (hd2 rom) that must work.

here you are
after trying all the different cabs and ext packages of swype that I could find,
none of them worked when cooked, so I decided to play around with the files from
3 different downloads. I finally managed to create a package that works with
osKitchen for the HD2 - Leo. just extract to your EXT Packages folder.
DOWNLOAD REMOVED - DUE TO XDA RULES

yeah, its a combination of the Fixed.Blackbird cab and the EXT package with NL patch that can be found on the forums. it works perfectly on my HD2 when cooked using oskitchen.
I searched on Google and here on XDA, but didn't find anything concerning this issue. Perhaps false catchword
I have the problem with my kitchen and cooked WM6.5.3 (SYS21656 details signature) that I can't disable "old" T9 because of the missing settings in System/Personal/Input where you can set the T9.
Background:
I never cook-in the HTC-Keyboard, because I am using SlideIT which I manually install with a cab.
After new installation of the Rom you only have the "old" inbuild Microsoft Keyboard. If you type anything in Notes or Word you always have these T9 words which I want to disable.

I am not sure what kitchen you are using but I use OSKitchen and I have an EXT package with my own custom registry settings in an app.reg file. Due to the way the kichens compile these extra registry settings it is possible another package is overwriting them (the old trick with prefixing the name of your EXT with 'zzz' etc).
Check with a registry editor after your ROM is installed and see what it is set to.
