Sorry, I'm very new to posting.... just want to get the right info...
I just bought a softbank HTC (Herm200) with Windows Mobile 6 installed.
WM6 is an english version, but the keyboard assignment is not correct. (the function keys are not correct). It looks like a japanese keyboard layout.
What do I have to do/install to change to an english keyboard?
Please help
Install Schap's Advanced Config and change the keyboard layout in "keyboard" section. If you do not want to install new program you can also edit registry yourself
Goto the following registry entry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty]
There is a key called 'Layout' and it is in Decimal.
The default value of English ROM is 20409, and Chinese ROM is 20404 (both are in hexadecimal).
The suitable value for German Hermes keyboard is 20407 (132103 in decimal).
The suitable value for Spanish Hermes keyboard is 2040a (132106 in decimal).
Probably Hermes use 20+country ID (409=WWE, 407=German, 404=Trad. Chinese, etc...) format for keyboard layout value.
Don't forget to power off your phone and then power back on when you have finished. Soft reset will not make the changes stick. _ fixed: Theres no need to change ?HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload and ?HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload\1 If you change them then when writing to "to:" field in sms, it doesn't list any names from contact list. (You have to press "Check names")
All you need is to change HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty "Layout"="132116"
</verbatim>
Note: For those with a Chinese Keyboard Layout, Changing the Preload will affect Outlook, particularly when composing e-mails. Typing e-mail addresses will not auto-load from your address book for some reason. This can be fixed by deleting the [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload] folder and all its contents. As of now, no known side effects from deleting the folder has been found.
Note2: For those using a Japanese layout (i.e. Softbank X01HT) with newer ROMs should use 30411 Hex. (197649 Dec) as value for keyboard layout in order to get ',' and '.' properly mapped:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload]
"Default"="e0030411"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload\1]
"Default"="e0030411"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty]
"Layout"="197649"
How do I change the soft-keyboard layout? QWERTY is working fine but I'm missing CZ chars on software keyboard.
I would like not to install another keyboard but simply change layout of the Windows default one if possible.
Thx

I've got a German MDA PRO with the Qtek WWE ROM.
I'm trying to get the correct kayboard layout.
Can someone with a Germon ROM please post the registry settings under:
- HKCU\ControlPanel\Keyb\
- HKCU\ControlPanel\keyboard layout\ProLoad
I've tryed to create a String and HEX DWORD value with the name "locale" and value "0407", but that didn't work.
for the german keyboard on english ROM
get a registry editor (like Resco)
search the Change the key
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\Qwerty]
edit - Layout in decimal to 66567
then softreset
I usually use letter recognizer as a input method. My ROM is the MReyes HTClive project 5.4.1 in a Blakstone (in my opinion one of the best due to its abscence of errors).
I modified the registry to obtain 4 word suggestion when I write for example in pocket informant appointments... I found this method in the net and correctly works:
Edit your registry:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e001 0409
Ime File = \windows\compime.dll
Layout Text = COMP IME
To restore
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e001 0409
Ime File = \windows\eT9Ime.dll
Layout Text = eT9 IME
Now I have a new problem, because when I introduce a word that is not suggested, when I try to introduce it in other appointment again, this word is not suggested as I remember in WM5. I saw that custom.dic is not in my /Windows.
I created a custom.dic with DictMgr, but these new introduced words are not suggested.
Any knows the reason?
Anybody knows what changes in the registry are required to obtain a new introduced word that is not in the mssp2.lex, when I write some appointments (per example)?
Many thanks
Best regards
Hello,
I live in belgium and whe use AZERTY.
I wanna use the dutch dictionary with AZERTY.
how can i change this?
Is the problem that the language simply isn't available in the keyboard menu? or does it change to qwerty when you select dutch..?
if the language simply isn't available try this in the registry:
go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Tegic/eT9
click AvailableLanguages and add 0113 to the end of the value like:
0109,010C,0107,0110,010A,0113
then go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Tegic/eT9/LdbFiles
and add a new String value named 0113 with a value of NLlsUN_xt9.ldb
then go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\Sip\LanguageKeyBoardIDMapping
and add a new String value named 0113 with a value of 0913
(look if the excisting values also have 09 as the first two digits, if they have something else, use those two.. I'm not sure but the value could be different on a azerty device..)
reboot your device...
No registry entry for xt9 language
I live in SE-Asia and have the HD2 with rom 1.48.707.2 (71294) WWE. There are no registry entries for the xt9 languages (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\) and none of the programs with respect to xt9 are found under the windows directory (eT9MyWords.exe or the language files). How can I get the Dutch language for the xt9?
When I select Dutch in the menu, the keyboard switches to qwerty. Is it possible to change this into azerty (like when you select French)?
I have a Dutch Rom on my phone.
Hi all,
When I open a site which is in my regional language (Indian language), I could only see squares in it.
Do I have to install Unicode fonts in to my Herald?
I have Aserg's ROM and tried to open http://kn.wikipedia.org in the IE.
Just now, I referred to the following tutorial given in wikipedia. And now I can see all the fonts in my regional language.
I can't read anything.
I can't even read the menu items. Nor the Registry keys. Nothing. I don't know what to change back.
Seems, I need to hard-reset. What a fool I am.
------------------------------------------
Unicode on Windows mobile 5.0
To Enable the fonts on Windows Mobile 5 & 6
Copy the unicode font to \Windows\Fonts folder
Download PHM registry from http://www.phm.lu/products/PocketPC/RegEdit/ (select the "Pocket PC 2002,2003 (ARM/PXA) from the dropdown)
copy registry editor cab file to device and install it.
Enable font linking by adding the below registries
Run PHM regidtry editor from programs
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\
Select Microsoft, go to edit > New Key and add a new key FontLink below HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\
Select FontLink and add a new key SystemLink (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\FontLink\SystemLink )
Select SystemLink and add a string value.
Value name - Tahoma
Value data - \Windows\Fonts\Akshar.ttf,Akshar Unicode
Note: change the "Akshar.ttf,Akshar Unicode" as per the font you have copied to the Fonts folder.
Again go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ and add one more New Key "FontPath"
Select FontPath and add a string value as
Value name - FontPath
Value data - \Windows\Fonts
Soft reset your mobile
So, the method given above just changes the font of the device (while the language does not change).
I am going to hard-reset the device.
Hi,
the ADAM has only a USB keyboard layout for QWERTY (USA), but I need a German layout.
I have tried to change the .kl file. It works for some keys, for example changing "Y" to "Z", but the special Germany character like Ö Ü Ä and so on I'm not able to add them. And I think I have to make some changes on the .bin file in the /keychars folder. But I really don't know how.
Does any one knows how I can create a special USB keyboard layout for german characters ?
Thanks,
Harvey
