HTC Keyboard & KeyPad - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Hi,
yesterday i have downloaded a cab files containing new htc xt9 keyboard (version with 2 letters per key).
Now the same cab (after hard reset of my tytn with schap's 3.54b) works only in 40 key!
Can I fix this problem?

Problem with the PhonePad input mode after upgrading to 1.11

I upgraded my Greek S100 to 1.11, and I can no longer write using the PhonePad. Instead it pops out its default keyboard.
Has anyone else experienced the same problem either with a Greek S100 or with one with the WWE 1.11 ROM?
Happened to me once with the WWE 1.11 ROM. A soft reset was an effective cure.
Well, I also tried a soft reset myself (4 actually and the two of them were in the row) but it didnt work. The only other programs that I have installed are:
MS Voice Command 1.5
Resco Explorer 2003 Latest version
PHE Registry Editor
They are quite stable programs, so I somehow doubt it's their fault!
Before the soft reset, make sure you chose another input panel than the faulty phone pad.

Sym Key not working? Here's the solution...

Okay, this prob got me for some hours:
I updated my Universal from German ROM to latest (original) WWE ROM. After that, I tried all known hacks to put the hardware-keyboard to QWERTZ instead of QWERTY.
HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\Locale=0407
HKCU\keyboard layout\Preload\Default=e0010407
HKCU\keyboard layout\Preload\1\Default=e0010407
HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\Qwerty\Layout=0x20407
Unfortunately, after that, the SYM-Key wasn't working.
Now after trying various things and thinking a lot, I guess I have the answer.
It seems to be important that the first 3 values don't get changed. The Qwerty\Layout is the locale for the hardware keyboard driver and if you change the locales for WM5, too, I guess the scancodes get converted once more and so the SYM-Key doesn't work. After changing the first 3 registry keys back to 409, now everything works fine.
Cheers,

I did similar modifications to my registry to make it work well with my italian keyboard and I ended with the same problem: the SYM key doesn't work.
I'll try with your solution. Thanks for sharing it!
In your original Ext_ROM, there should be a file called Signed_GER_KB.CAB. Just run that, then the KB is back as it should be. No need to modify the registry. The sym key is controlled by the sym.txt file in your windows folder.

problem italian (qwerty) keyboard

hi,
i have a imate pda2k with qwerty keyboard.
wm6 doesn't recognize special characters like "." "@" "," and others.
with my old wm2003 i had to install after an hardreset a special cab to solve the problem.
i have tried this cab also in wm6 but without results.
does a fix exists ?
ok i have found the right solution before posting my question here,

but i forgot to tap "exit" at the end of registry edit. so i have not saved the new registry key.
sorry

keyboard layout

is there any way to change the keyboard layout to german? i managed to change it to qwertz via regedit but it wont work for äüö any ideas?
third party software? The "special" characters will only be able by the default menu. (in the onscreen keyboard, tap a character and slide to the left or right while holding it)
I mean the hardware keyboard layout. I downloaded a regedit program and changed the entry for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\CurLang to 1031 as I did on my old touch pro 1. with the TP I could then just press FN + a/o/u to get an ä/ö/ü but now it doesnt seem to work. so I was wondering if I need to enter a different value for that registry entry or if its something else.
I am interested too in changing the keyboard layout, in order to have the FN key working with accented letters.
I don't have any clue on doing this, though...
I don´t have the rhodium yet but I recommend this great software keyboard (using it on my Touch HD):

Ok, I manage to change the keyboard layout back to the German layout.
1) first you need to set up this key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\CurLang to 1031
2) then you need to copy the file eT9.Rhodium.0407.kmap.txt to the windows directory (attached)
3) then you need to set up this key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\Ime\KeyboardLayouFiles\07FF to
eT9.Rhodium.0407.kmap.txt
4) reboot and that's it ... works fine on my TP2

Wow, Aurel143, the wiki page is just PRECISE!!!
My problem, though is that I cannot make a mapping match my hardware keyboard. It is a german one (me being Hungarian), so for example I cannot put accented ó on o, because ö is already there. You just can't remember 20 characters, if I maybe but ú on "-" or something.
But thank you, anyway.

I'm trying to figure out which one my TP2 is currently using as i just want to add one single keystroke "\"
Mine currently says:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\CurLan g to 1031
I wondered if there was a way of telling before I changed my registry.
I've looked into all the eT9.Rhodium.XXXX.kmap.txt files and none of them line up to either my SIP of hardware keyboard.
Can anyone post eT9.Rhodium.0419.kmap.txt? I don't have it on my Sprint TP2.
Thanks!

Tilt2HWKeyboard.cab

Hi all:
Seeking some help regarding the keyboard fix for tilt2. It was working fine for me when I use one of the official EUR 6.5 ROMs. I just flashed to a 6.5 WWE Hong Kong ROM with CHT and the cab is not working. I believe possibly because of the different IME for Chinese or the newer version of the ROM?
Instead of a cab is there some keys I can change/add to registry to fix that problem? It's driving me crazy not able to type properly...
Thanks in advance!!
I eneded up using the hwkeyboard cab to get the right FN and shift key....then I added takrim's keyboard control and reassigned all the keys to the correct place. Here's the XML file you can load to get all the keys...unzip and open keyboard config -> load -> and choose the xml file.
thanks for the xml, im having an issue with my numbers and symbols not working and this one seemed to remap it correctly when i put it into the keyboard config. However, the OK button is the FN button, and the FN button is caps lock, and im not sure what the capslock/shift button does (but it doesn't do anything when i press it)! . Is there a way to swap them in the config? i tried to do it myself but could only find how to create a rule and i dont think thats correct. Thanks!
install Toleraen's Tilt2KWKeyboard cab....for my initial testing it fix the FN and shift key but nothing else...
so now I have both the hwkeyboard cab installed - to fix FN and shift. Then use keyboard config + my XML for the rest.
Give it a try
Again. All the stuff you need.
I have downloaded these three files, but I do not know how to load them into my Tilt2. They don't unzip to .cab files. Could anyone help me with some instructions here?
Thanks in advance
RQDHD2 cab
Iam now using this fix and it worked for me and i can still sync with outlook
When i use HW keybord SIP keybord wil also hide
Works beautifully, thanks!
I got to modify your 'Keyboardconfig.xml" one-by-one as it is not working for mine. This may due to different ROM version. Anyway, attached my copy of .xml file & I'm using WME version of ROM. Hope this help those having same problem.
