Change Wizard hardware keyboard layout

Hi,
I have a Wizard with a QWERTY keyboard layout and German ROM.
im desperately searching for a possibility to change the keyboard layout WM5 uses, as the keys with special characters on the hardware keyboard generate the wrong characters as well as Y and Z are switched.
Is there any way to do this?

so do you want to keep with the german rom? if not could you not just install the english rom?
(why would they ship k-jam's with german rom but not with a german keyboard?)

sure why not... i just want the keyboard to work properly...

Anyone knows how to change hardware layout?
Hi,
I have the same issue, I bought K-JAM with default "US" layout and need to add national characters to it (Just the hardware keyboard). If anyone has a bright idea which files (*.dll, config) need be changed, please let me know.
Thanks a million,
J.

You can remap some keys
You can remap same keys to your custom UNICODE characters:
http://ae.inc.ru/
Take a look at AEKMap. But i-mate K-JAM has some limitations. I think it is because of the keyboard driver. Some keys like A, S, D, J, C and other cannot be remapped with the "blue button key". If you look at the keyboard, these are extensions normally found as "shifted number keys". This may be only the sofware driver. The implications are that some keys are shiftable and some are not. Unfortunatelly I would like to have a driver I could programme the way I like and assign any key with shift/blue any value.

Maybe Mamaich could help us hack the hardware keyboard driver.

Czech hardware keyboard mapping for HTC Wizard
After some time, I got it completed. You need to download and install AEKMap and then install two Czech keyboards:
Czech (Czech characters)
US (default US characters)
for switching use the Blue key and Space.
All czech keys (uppercase and lowercase) are accessed with the Blue key. Shift works too.
Good luck!
J.
It has a little flaw:
try ž and then á
try ú and then ů
etc.
It is because these are the same key codes shifted and non-shifted. When they follow directly, the second key's shift state is either set or reset. Try any other key and it will be reset. I will try to contact Alexander Eltsyn to fix it. He's the author of AEKMap.
Alexander thanks!

Diky!

Hello guys! I'm having the same problem listed above. I have an QTEK A9100 (original ROM WM 5.0 in portuguese-Brazil provided by TIM). Inside it is equal Wizard, I mean, same hardware (at least thats what I've heard). I have updated it to WM 6.1 in English and after that, my fisical keyboard became crazy! I cannot use the specials caracters anymore! Please, help me!
Ps.: Forgive me for my terrible English

the same here! I am on an English OS with a German hardware keyboard (QWERTZ).
The thing is, that all cabs that circulating around don't work anymore. Since build 19xxx all those reg changes don't have an impact anymore! No way to change the hardware keyboard anymore!
any update on that??
regards
irm

This cab doesn't work for me.
I've tried with LSVW 2.0.0.7 and it doesn't change the soft keyboard. The option working for me is HI Keyboard 1.2.

difficult question for u all

i have a question for u all. i have bought a touch dual with 20 keys..italian version (i am italian too ). But i discovered that i hate the semi qwerty fisical keyboard. so i would like to buy the 16 keys version (example uk version) . but can i use it in italian language, with xt9 etc?? can i do something to make work it??
please let me know
dario

I've never seen the 16key model, but the 20key has several xt9 dictionaries, so I would assume yes, you can use the xt9 with the 16key aswell

ok, but the question is: can i use the xt9 in italian language if i buy an htc dual version (16 keys) in uk?
I just have the italian model with 20 key, but i hate the semi qwerty keyboard. So i want buy a 16 key version, but there is not this version in italy!
please help

i bought mine here in the philippines and yes there is italian xt9 on it so i assume that most other devices will have it also.

stupid question sorry, but the italian xt9 can wotk with the phisical keyboard too??
tanx

I think, there is no Italian dictionnary (XT9) with UK ROM.
You need to dump your Italian ROM (from your 20key keyboard) and put it on the UK dual touch (with 16key keyboard).
It's possible to dump ROM with the kaiser method.

I think (and hope) u're wrong:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=357935
other guys done a similar thing whithout dump the rom...and u have to think that the italian rom (maybe) is setted for 20 keys, maybe in a 16 keys wont work the key association...at least i think
i just need to talk to a guys with 16 uk keyboard...

I just tested 3 languages on my german 20key Version. (with the hardware-keyboard xt9-key-->languages-->choose lang.)
It uses for german, english and italian different dictionarys.
And all of them contains enough words to recognize the words of my test-sentences.
So, why should this be different for the 16-key version?

it switch both the sw and the hardware keyboard dictionary

go to the "how many touch duals" we have thread and search for someone with a 16key dual. send him/her a PM and ask. would probably be the easiest option

Universal WM 6.1 Pro - Virtual Keyboard problem

Hi,
I've installed windows mobile 6.1 (5.2.20931, by VNInt - Really great ROM ! ) on my HTC Universal but the ROM is English whereas I'm French.
I try to convert the qwerty keyboards into azerty keyboards and to modify some languages parameters but it doesn't work completely and I go round in circles for a few days.
At the moment after having read many threads of this forum :
- I've changed the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\QWERTY : It works, my physical keyboard is now correctly mapped.
- I've added a mssp2_fr.lex file in \Windows and I've modified HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\Spell Check : It works, the spell checker is now French.
- I've made many tests in the registry and with French dictprob/statdict files to get a French virtual keyboard and French dictionnaries but unfortunately, all have failed.
Notice that I want to keep the original windows mobile keyboard (I don't want to install a keyboard application, even a freeware)
And if possible, I want to avoid overwritting English Files because I search to get a configuration that allow to toogle as easily as possible between qwerty and azerty (ideally, I want to be able to toogle between azerty/French_Dictionnary and qwerty/English_Dictionnary just by executing .reg files)
Please, can somebody help me, and explain me what I should do step by step ?
The different methods I've found on other topics don't work on the Universal or with this Windows Mobile version.
Thank you

Hi !
I used to have same problem as you do but at the inverse, bought my Uni at France but i live in Mexico, it´s more easier for me manage my keyboard in english at least in soft, cause my physical keyboard is an azerty, to my humble point of view you have find a Rom in French or get a virtual keyboard in French such as SPB and manage in the screen avoding the confusion in the keys, maybe someone else with more expertise could help you in the registry matters, hope this will help you, greetings!
ORB! igual y tu sabes como ayudarle a nuestro amigo, tu siempre sabes como,jajajaja, saludos!

Welcome to the forum, please use the search and read the Wiki
For your problem I can think 2 options:
1.- Reflash your Uni with this french ROM (I don´t know what it says on the link as I´m not a french speaking): http://www.planete-htc.com/index.php?mod=forum&ac=voir&ref=16&cat=80&id=8127
2.- Try one of this registrys:
a. for the fench keyboard on english ROM
b. get a registry editor (like Resco)
c. search the key [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\Qwerty]
d. edit - Layout in HEX to 1040c
e. softreset

Jajajaj, no siempre mi amigo! bueno fuera!, yo tambien sigo aprendiendo
LOL, not always mate!, I´m still learning also

Thank you for your answers.
But in spite of them, I'm still stucked...
I don't want to install a French ROM because it's a WM6.0 ROM, and not a WM6.1 Pro ROM.
Furthermore, I've read on French forums it was not enough optimized and it becomes sometimes a bit slow.
orb3000, I've already done the registry hack you are speaking about. It works, but only for the physical keyboard.
And I've allready read the two topics but it doesn't help me because it deals with translating WM in French or Finding a French ROM.
I don't want to translate WM in French (I know it's in theory possible with Real VGA but it always crashes the phone feature and reading English is fine for me, so I've abandoned)
I'll recapitulate what I want and what I've done :
1) Having an AZERTY physical keyboard instead of a QWERTY one : OK (registry hack)
2) Having an AZERTY virtual keyboard instead of a QWERTY one, without installing a third party software : KO
3) Having a French Spell Checker without overwritting a file : OK (copy of mssp2_fr.lex in \Windows + registry configuration)
4) Having the SYM key configured for French language without overwritting a file : KO
5) Having a French autocomplete without overwritting a file : KO
6) Being able to switch between French and English configuration with .reg files : KO

Search ROM WM 6.1 French

Hello,
I just bought a Palm Treo Pro but it is English. I would like to make an update to the ROM in French.
I searched but I found that English ROM.
Someone would have there a WM 6.1 ROM for Palm Treo Pro in French please?
Thank you

If you want to still use the WM 6.1 you can simply install RealVGA and the appropriated language pack. I believe it will solve your problem.

Thank you,
Or is it that I can find the "realVGA" and the language pack in French?
This will not affect the use of the Treo Pro?
What are the benefits of "realGVA?
What is the procedure used to install the "realVGA?
Thank you for your reply

I found thank you
I try and see what happens.

I'm not sure how to help you with those, but I think you could build your own ROM with the french language pack!
Par example essaie le ROM là [ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=587670 ] et modifie le ROM avec [ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544445 ], notamment avec les "Language Localization Packages".
(My french is rather bad I admit...)
I hope this helps!

Thank you for your post
But to change the ROM and put it in French I have to flash my Treo with WM 6.5 ROM right?
I am already with an English 6.1 ROM so you think I can install the language pack French?
Thank you

I think you'd have to create a new ROM (even if it's only for 6.1) with this language pack - you can't simply install it over the existing OS like on Windows... I think.
This is the correct thread (for the language pack and OS): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=547314 - a good overview for the most important threads (including how to build a new ROM etc) I'm sure this will help as well: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=XDA%20D%26H%20Wiki%20Page.
All the best!

ya pas de Rom francais pour le Treo pro ! garde le en anglais et amuse toi bien ,c'est un bon smartphone
