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

French Input for WM6

Hi french users!
I've created a cab to change language input functionnalities into French. It's based on the good idea of querschlaeger who did the same for german language. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=279158).
It will change the following :
- Hardware keyboard layout
- Suggested words dictionary
- Spellcheck dictionary
- Autocorrect
- Symbols List
It won't change :
- The user interface
- The software keyboard layout
I used the french files from a SPVM3100 with a french Orange ROM.
Of course, it won't change the user interface into French
It works fine on my M3100 with WMXL 0.10, I haven't tested it with WMXL 0.20 but it should works too.

Thanks a lot for this
C'est génial

Thanks a lot.
Works nice on a WM5 AKU3.3 WWE.

You are welcome.
I confirm that this cab works fine with WMXL 0.20
If a moderator wants to move it into the WM6 forum, it would be nice. I didn't choose the correct forum when creating this thread.

&*"ç&"//!!!
This cab messed my keyboard completely, without even adding what was promised.
Now instead of "q" I get a "a", instead of "w" I get an "y" and so on...
Removing it did not solve the problem!
Is a hard reset the only solution left?

Ok, I see it's because you have a QWERTY keyboard and this CAB also change the keyboard layout from QWERTY to french AZERTY.
You just have to go in the registry and change to key HKLM\Software\OEM\Qwerty from 0x0002040c to 0x00020409 (In hexa)
Reboot and that's all.
It's strange because I tried the uninstall and it was working fine on my device.
Sorry for the inconvenience

Strange, it's working correctly on my WXML 0.21 but I can't type any accent...

NO aaccent
Same thing for me, no accent is available from the physical keyboard... Any solution ???

hi and thank you for the fix Atmis
it works perfectly with WM6 LVSW Edition (2007-03-26)
with WM6 Black Edition v1.2 I get my AZERTY keyboard mapped properly but I can't get the accented characters using the space bar, haven't tried spellcheck yet
any idea of what can be wrong ?
I already tried soft-resetting my device

Merci.
J'aimerais l'avoir en fr ce wm6, lol en tout cas merci.
Thks

c'est sur qu'il n'y a aucun moyen de passer le clavier virtuel en azerty ?
en plus je ne trouve pas de clavier normal a instalé just des pleins écrans

could you translate in english please?

guess it is possible, we need to get an english rom upate file even if its current version as installed on english pdas...
the lang change will probably go like on the 6515, installing the current lang rom, so the detection is ok, after the pda starts to update copy the ang files to the location where the current lang files are so they are overwritten and updated to the pda (we go over the check for right language)...
Hope someone gets english rom soon.

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??

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

Azerty qwerty keyboard problem

hello. iam a owner of one htc touch dual.
this htc dual was bought from SFR (France) and have an azery keyboard.
I changed ROM to a Portuguese ROM, but now they keyboard doesnt match the outupt key in screen...
what can i do to fix the problem, i.e., i want to use that Portuguese ROM in a HTC azerty, but with perfect match between keyboard and output in screen.
Please help me.
Many thanks

You need original france keyboard mapping files, you extract it from original rom
"HTC Rom image editor" by AnDim will help you, it's user friendly tool for rom editing

Problem
Hello. Thanks for trying to help me. But if i extract those mapping files what i will do withn them?
Let me see if i understood: i instal a french rom and the i extract some mapping files and then i instal again a portuguese rom with those mapping files? Is this what you were trying to tell me?
Isnt there any patch to turn (or to add AZERTY capabilities to an QWERTY rom ?)
Many thanks

Here is steps:
1)Download you original french rom
2)Download HTC Rom Image Editor
3)Open you original rom with HTC rom image editor
4)Extract keymaping files
5)Put it in you portugese rom
Here's attachment for example, it contains keymapping files for niki-16-Eng.

Boas ,Luismatos123, sim tambem tenho o mesmo problema mas vou optar por comprar um teclado OEM QWERTY para o touch dual, assim as teclas já batem certo com a ROM que tenho instalado. Podes ver aqui:http://cnn.cn/shop/touch-dual-keypad-p-2385.html
Hi,Luismatos123, yes I have the same problem, but I decided to buy an OEM QWERTY keyboard for the touch dual, that way the keyboard letters will math with the ROM I have.You can see it here:http://cnn.cn/shop/touch-dual-keypad-p-2385.html

problem
Hello Muras! Have you maneged to buy and instal the new keyboard? And have you give up of trying to get a suitable ROM to avoid changing keyboard?
Olá Muras! Sempre vais comprar o teclado? O ideal era mesmo arranjar o ficheiro ROM (nbh e não o auto executável) e meter os novos ficheiros.
