german version of the xda-developers rom 1.2

hi guys
first of all thanks a lot for your work, it helped me out a lot and especially letting me get to know my new device much better and easier.
i just have some hard time setting up your xda special rom image. with an english version built in linux flashed with the bootloader way and xdarit.exe, it worked out fine but when i tried to built my own german version, it just shows the splash screen, at the lower right corned it show that the system initialised (with this g32S54 ; R3.17.01 message written in red) but than it just freezes and cannot be started.
i somehow tried it with a german t-mobile image, an old o2 image and the newest o2 image and i got the same problem everytime.
is there a way to get the german version running ? since i'm in need of the special signs or does your mkrom script just runs on an english image ?

To be honest, we never really tested mkROM much on German versions. But there's new developments on the horizon, and you may like what's coming...

What do you mean with that??? A universal multilanguage SE??? Special german ROM???
Please give more details...

Hi All,
English is ok for me. I just would like to get a german qwertz keyboard on it.
If anybody has freeware suggestions let me know.

did you mkrom, to extract the xipchain from your rom?
the offsets used in mkrom may need to be changed. currently these are all hardcoded for the qtek rom. have not looked at other roms.

thanks for the hint, i'm just about to try that, just did not recognize this xipchains script. but i'm working on that.
but since my knowledge is not that good it may take a while...
more hints are welcome .
actually this german qwertz keyboard is the most important thing for me too.. but having also a german language just makes navigating much quicker, and since there are a lot of people around here being interested in your special rom, because the original once just suck and are totally unusable. and yours seems to run very stable...
greetz at all

Sorry, no freeware, but there is an application called calligrapher, wich is a handwriting recognition thingy, far better than transscriber. It can use custom dictionaries and has a better keyboard included with it. I use it all the time with a dutch upgrade. You can get the german one if you like and youll have the qwertz keyboard. (Because of a bug, the dutch version also has qwertz).

I have also tried to built a German one...see http://www.xda-developers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1490&highlight=dolo
So I am even not sure if my Linux solution is the right one, or the hardcoded stuff is tricking me.
so any clue on how to get mkrom on German ROM running is apreciated.
Dolo

just checked the 3.19.01 german rom, the MISC block is larger than in the qtek rom. now it is partially overwritten by the XDA_DEVELOPERS1 block.
you would have to change the start of xda_developers1 to 81840000,
and also make it smaller, since not everything will fit anymore.

hey that sounds cool, but how do i do that ?
deleting some files out of the files2 directory ?
and how do i set the start block ? sorry did not have enough time to read through all the readme and how to files...
thanks a lot

XDA O2 Mini S - keyboard problems

Hello all, newbie here. I bought a new XDA O2 Mini S on eBay (eBay item number 5837326300), and I just got it. Phone and internet works great with my Cingular GSM/GPRS service here the US...however, the keyboard mapping is messed up. The auction listing said it was a QWERTZ (whatever that is) keyboard and I believe it has an i-Mate ROM. My Z and Y are reversed and several shift+ inputs do not match what is on the keyboard. Here is the info from my device:
Model No.: WIZA200
Windows Mobile 5.0 (build 14402.1.1.0)
ROM version: 1.1.93
ROM date: 9/16/05
Radio version: 01.01.10
Protocol version: 4.0.13.16
ExtROM version: 1.1.9.106
Can someone please tell me how to get the keyboard to match the inputs listed on the keys? Sorry if this thread already exists somewhere...I couldn't find any relevant posts via forum search. Could someone also tell me if i should re-flash with a new ROM?
Thanks in advance! -Bill (Columbus OH, USA)

Could someone lend some advice please? this keyboard is driving me nuts. thanks!

Qwertz is the Croatian keyboard layout.
Is there an international setting that you can change?
I can't try it as mine Vario doesn't get delivered until tomorrow
But I won't be able to play until Saturday as it's my works Christmas 'do' tomorrow

also german

And swiss :wink: Sorry, it does not help. Are you sure that the guy that sold you the device has not installed another rom?

we need only the keybddr.dll from a qwertz device, but nobody
can copy this file. (attribut system und much more)
regards

Hello,
can anyone with an qwertz device start this attached program ?
This will dump all system files on storage card.
Then post please here the keybbdr.dll
thx
regards

Already tried. The DLL is badly extracted. Size is wrong. And if you try to use it, there is no keyboard anymore. Tried on two M3000. Unfortunately, didn't have time to check further (if additional files or registry settings are required for exemple).

Hi jacoch,
are you using the WM5_Files_Dumper.exe ?
regards

Yes, I used that one (and also tested testwm5 found on another thread). It's quite strange, because all files are dumped correctly (html, images, etc...). But all DLL have wrong size, although their content seems correct (apport last bytes of course). I have tried to cut the DLL at the right size, but it didn't work. So if someone has time to look further, he maybe can find the trick.

You may try to use AEKMap ([url]http://ae.inc.ru/aekmap.php) [/url] for make A<-->Z replacement.

but @ and ! are wrong ...
regards

the same to @ and !

can you upload the keymap file you are using ?
regards

I have no layout file to fix this issue because I have no such device at all. But as far as I know AEKMap beta was used for resolving similar problem on BlueAngel (and you may find this layout somewhere on the beta version page). And I will gladly publish such layout in database and present reg code to anyone who will send me new useful layout

:?
last week i download AEKMap and has try 5 hours to modify
one map to get the @
No chance with the keyboad from the wizard.
Other peoples has the same problem with @ and AEKMap and
the device htc wizard.
regards

As you may note the new version 1.1 was published two days ago instead of 0.9.4 Beta available since 2004. Probably this version will resolve the problem.
Could you please describe me, why you were unsucessful trying beta? Are needed keys were not cacheable? Or any other reason?

i try the new version now
my last AEKMap.arm.CAB has 97kb size
regards

Many thanks to greddy, German layout for wizard with QUERTZ keyboard and English ROM is on http://ae.inc.ru/aekmaplayout.php!

I have spent few hours in trying to figure if I can assign a button for changing layouts.
I have k-jam and I have 2 language support on it - english and german.
How can I toggle between those 2? I want to have a combination of 2 keys to go from german layout to english and from english to german (like ALT+SHIFT on desktop comps).
Any ideas?
Is it possible with this app?

Go to wiki pages
er2003 edit , change your language and operator id to match with your phone

thanks..i've never done it and i spent quite a bit of time on this forum but still could not find ways to do it, can you please direct me to the instruction to how to change to language rom?..thanks

I just converted mine from Spanish to English by upgrading to 2003 Second Edition.
All you have to do is fool the phone into thinking you are applying a Spanish update (in your case French).
You need to know the phones country code, and re-code the upgrade files.
I did it in 2 hours
Follow these instructions

You will have trouble understaning the information.
You will go crazy trying to change the language code ect.
You will get it working.

T9 Dutch (and other) languages on Sysrius R0

Hi
I'm looking for a way to have dutch t9 on my Polaris. Currently I have only managed to instal a bunch of cab's and completely ruin my settings and need to reflash to correct the mistakes I have mad (installing a cab with language from Diamond). Could somebody who already succeeded help me with a step by step tutorial?

I don't have a step by step tutorial, but I would be interested in translating to dutch too. I saw this thread some time ago, but didn't have the time yet to try it out. Did you try that?

Try the gullum keyboards. There is an instruction, the only thing that won't work is the Touch keypad.
I changed 3 registry entries:
- HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9\AvailableLanguages
I deleted some of them, got "0109, 010C, 0113" typed in it.
- HKLM\Software\HTC\ezsip\Librarycount
I changed it to "5", then I deleted the entries: Library5 to Library14 (Just everything from 5 up)
- HKLM\Software\HTC\ezsip\Library4
Changed the value to "8"
Go to input and change the t9 setting to the empty bar, et voila you have dutch T9
Good luck!
ps Don't know why I changed the entries, have been messing around a lot with entries to get T9 working and this is an old habit with which I got my T9 to work

Hi, use the gullum keys and the attachted t9 dictionary.

OK, thanks for your replies. I would like to grade it down into steps. Could you help me in understanding. I put the steps down here and lookinig for verification.
1. Acquire a cab with dutch dictionary. Is this rom/device/keyboard specific?
2. Change the registry to look for Dutch language on the device
3. Change the library count to be able to show dutch language here
4. What is the value change in library 4 for???
Help is much appreciated

greek keyboard still not, working (I think Russian too). right ?
anyone knows somithing different?

OK, Im still not there. Based on tweaks & tricks topic, kartus thread above and the current settings on other languages I made the following registry changes / additions. I installed the Gullum Dutch language CAB and now I have Dutch language by choosing the empty option. How do I get the empty box to show Dutch instead of being empty. Instead of just fixing it for now I would really like to do it a 100%

I would like to know that too, how to get the line 'Dutch' in it. And also how to get the diamond keypad to work.

Why not wait for a dutch rom?
I know some people are working on it.

Adding or changing xT9 dictionary?

I've got english ROM but would like to be able to use some other dictionaries (in addition or instead of...) like norwegian and/or swedish.
I've been searching this forum for "add xt9 dictionary", also under other WM6.x devices like Diamond but have come up with nothing useful.
It seems like HTC Diamond and others use "eT9" dic's and the registry keys referred to does not exist in X1
HTC= HKLM\Software\Tegic\....
X1=HKLM\Software\XT9 Input Method\...).
The only regkey that exists in my X1 under XT9 Input Method is "IMEmode=0".
- Anyone with a swedish ROM that could check their registry settings here?
- Does anyone now of a way to add or change xT9 dictionary on X1?
- Anyone with a swedish ROM who could send/PM me the "mssp2.lex" file located on root in folder "Windows"?

I have the Swedish rom, i also only have IMEmode 0 there.

OK, if you have the swedish ROM you also have the swedish dictionary. Could you pls copy and PM or e-mail me the "mssp2.lex" located in folder "Windows"?

Anybody with a swedish ROM who could send me the "mssp2.lex" file located in folder Windows\ ??
If so, pls pm me and I´ll send you my e-mail address.

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Changing_Device_Language
I'm not sure but this site might help you?

Thx for the reply but it did not hlp me solve the problem. The thread is not applicable for Xperia. Neither of the mentioned registry keys are on the Xperia.
However it did help me in realizing that the *.lex file would not solve my problem sinse it apparently is only applicable for spellchecking (?) and is not used for the predictive text input appearing when messaging (?).
...so the question is now back to what the thread says: how to change or add a xT9 dictionary to Xperia??
Looking through some other threads for other (HTC) devices on this forum most of them refer to a "...Tegic\eT9..." path in registry which also does not seam applicable for Xperia.
All I have in registry is HKLM\Software\XT9 Input Method\IMEmode = 0.
Which files controls xT9 ??

An up for this problem... I am unable to change the dictionary used by the hardware keyboard. Actually I have Jack ROM, but would like to use my own language dictionary... any useful idea?!?!
