Fixing German QWERTZ keyboard for O2miniS with O2 EnglishROM

Fixing German QWERTZ keyboard layout for O2 miniS with English ROM installed is very simple.
Many nomally use AEKmap, but this is not allways fine for somebody.
Now we need a small registry hack.
1. Use a registry editor like total commander.
2. Go to \HKCU(HK Current User)\ControlPanel\Keybd\Locale.
3. Change the value of the key "Locale" from "0809" to "0407". "0407" is the locale ID for Standard German. You can find other Locale ID suitable for you at: http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/reference/winxp/xp-lcid.mspx.
4. Do a soft reset and enjoy. All the keys and symbols have fixed right.
Hope this help someone.[/list]

wooooooow!!
That's good.
I will try that NOW

Well I don't see any Locale folder under Keybd...
What next?

Dear cizake,
"Locale" is not a folder. This is a key, locating under the folder "Keybd". We have to change the value of this key. Check the path again, pls.
Hope this help.

I cannot change the vaule, I use PHM Registry editor, after soft reset, the vaule back to 0804,not 0407.....why??

I have no idea. I am using total commander. This is free at here http://www.ghisler.com/pocketpc.htm.
1. Check your programs that running each time you start windows at \windows\startup\. If they change keyboard settings.
2. After changing the registry key value. Do the soft reset by this way: Hold down the power button for ~5 seconds. When being asked to turn off the device, tap Yes. This will completly turn off the device and save the changes in registry. This method may different from taping the stylus to the reset hole.

I dont see Locale either .... would really appreciate any help on changing :
a) software keyboard layout and
b) hardware keyboard layout

Check the path again:
The folder: \\\Registry\\HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\
The key: Locale.
If you do not see the folder. Create a new folder "Keybd", then create a new key with name "Locale".
I thing this may help.
This is a fix for hardware (real) keyboard only.

Cool. For AZERTY keyboards the value is 040C. My ROM version didn't have Locale value in the HKC\ControlPanel\Keybd, I had to create one myself. It has to be String value, not DWORD. Thank you for great hack.

GUYS! YOUR ARE GREAT!!!
Works perfect with Eng for Russian Keyboard (Russian code is 0419). Now I can switch between Russian and English

yes can confirm 0809 works a treat for english keyboard, thanks!!

Sweet!
Yup! works a treat. Have now changed WM 5 from french to English (which gave me the english keyboard problem) and thanks to you changed the keyboard layout to French. Brilliant. By the way, where could i get the new qtek 9100 ROM 1.6 WWE?

Sorry, but this nice solution is not working after upgrading to 1.6.7.1
This entry in the Registry does not exit anymore. I can only find things whichhave the value "e0010409" for english keyboard and i want to get back my german one. Has anybody that number?

Check again kbaasch
Check the path again:
The folder: \\\Registry\\HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\
The key: Locale.
If you do not see the folder. Create a new folder "Keybd", then create a new key with name "Locale".
I thing this may help.
This is a fix for hardware (real) keyboard only.

my keyboard is now ok
oainot
Its works fine, thanks.
I have T-Mobile MDA Vario from German, I have flashed it with ROM: 1.6.7.1 WWE
And, with reg file my keyboard is now ok.
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Keybd]
"Locale"="0407"

MrBuz
Great, stunning solution! Thank you! This is absolutely BRILLIANT !
I have 1.6.7.1 WWE and Russian layout works perfectly...
But the English now lacks a "comma", as the combination "dot+comma" is assigned by the system to switch between layouts.
Is there any solution to re-assign the layout sequence, or to assign "Shift+comma" to print comma (currently Shift does not have any influence on that button on my system...)

Awesome solution.Works like a charm. Can not imaging a better solution. A++++

Fixed permanently?
Cool!
Will this work after hard reset? If not, anyone dare to create a new ROM so that we can flash it and fix it permanently?
Rocks!

I install to my BA it working very well

Text messages?
It seems like I can't get this to work with text messages (the encoding option in my text message inbox is disabled). Does anyone know how I can get around this problem?

whats language you want to get?
using this rom or CAB files with English ROM?
Is your font in your Device or ROM?
i tried text message in Japanese, Chinese, Korean. Thai Languages in this ROM
How about with check the unicode option?.
Also encoding of IE and e-mail enabled?
SMS doesnt need some encoding if the SMS service center support that.
<but almost of them suport it, within my knowledge>

I want to get Traditional Chinese on my Vodafone V1640. I also have a T-Mobile SDA (on O2 UK) which has nina.ttf installed but it doesn't show all the characters (i.e. I still get some squares) which is why I want to try to get Chinese on my V1640.
The ROM is the latest i-mate WWE ROM.
I have a T-Chinese font (don't know the actual name of the font but it is definitely no included in the Chinese Windows) placed in the Windows/Font folder, but does it have to be a specific font (like MingLiu? it's quite big though)?
I forgot where the unicode option is. Encoding options in IE and E-mail are available (I can choose the language), but IE still can't display Chinese, despite the change in the encoding option.
Please help.

1; used my CAB right?
this can install wince.nls and enabler for the nls files.
Text message need the sytem font to discribe your languages.
so it means chinese font should be register as "System font"
you have never done that., i guess so.
Ok following the sample of font registry for Mingliu font.
1;way 1 <with the cab in this page>
import this with registry editor and put the Mingliu into windows folder.
and make soft reset, then you can solve all problem.
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\FontLink\SystemLink]
"MingLiu="\\windows\\tahoma.ttf,Tahoma"
"PMingLiu"="\\windows\\tahoma.ttf,Tahoma"
"Courier New"="\\windows\\mingliu.ac3,PMingLiu"
"Tahoma"="\\windows\\mingliu.ac3,PMingLiu"
2:way 2 <without the cab in this page>
Or you install my chinese enabler CAB.
(but you must uninstall previouse cab befor install thia\s)
http://www.asukal.jp/English/LocalizeCABS.htm
PLS go to the bottom of above page, then dl for the cab you wantt.
cab should be "for the WM5"
those were included registry and font. not mingliuy but chinese font in it.

I don't know any hebrew.
But I think the display hebrew on last pic is not correct,because there are so many same character in one line.

I use the PHM Registry Editor. Do I just create new "String" values? Also, do I have to create the location in the registry as it isn't there?
The font file is named HDZB_74.TTF by the way.

arabic doesn't seem correct from the screen shot... the right to left encoding isn't enabled which is making each word to print on it's own instead of getting merged

ady> Arabic "right to left", can it solve by registry tweak?
if so can you let me know??? i can not read Arabic acutualy
or the problem of font???
ft1860> i also can not know hebrew, so no way to know about the problem also.
also the problem came from Font or registry???
any way this ROM or cab just gives you wince.nls for encoding.
Hope each languages Experts tweak for detail and font link to discribe
correctly. i just put uni-code font to the demo fro other language which i couldnt read
richardrai>
yes you make new valu. if you think it is troublesum.
1:write your registry with text editor and save it as xxxxxx.reg file.
the head of registry need "REGEDIT 4"
2;use the TRE free registry editre;
http://www2r.biglobe.ne.jp/~tascal/download/pocketpc/tre_e.htm
and use import command from menu, them import the reg you saved.
then make soft reset.
if your registry is correct, your font can use as system font

Good luck.

Thank you for your effort. Finally there is a solution.

It may be solved by a registry tweak.
It is an old issue between the customers and the sponsor of I-mate. We have been seeking a convenient free solution to the right-to-left problem for a long time.
Anyway, I don't think the problem is from the font.
There is an example of a left-to-right text on the following link (the flash on the right side). http://www.imaginet-software.net/index.aspx?p=arabizer

Sorry just want to make sure whether there should be a space between "REGEDIT" and "4"?

No need Space. REGEDIT4 is ok. sorry make you confuse.
Arabic. ;;if some boday help me discribe the Registry, i will make a patch CAb for that.
too difficult to understand me that language

It works on WM5 already?! Hmmm.. the last time I checked it doesn't. Will check it out this weekend finger cross

I think it's font problem. Because even my device does not support display from left to right, my display of Arabic is perfectly correct. I use a font called DFHeiMedium from Dynalab. It is a unicode font.

can't change querty to quertz

hi
yesterday i hardreseted my BA and since then i have not been able to change the softkeyboard to the german layout.
i changed the registry entry "layout" in HKLM\software\oem\querty to 132105 but even after about 40 softresets nothing changed.
whats especially strange is that pcmkeyboard though i chose the azerty/quertz layout is also querty.
is there anything i forgot? as far as i remember the registry trick worked fine last time.
(i am using sundreams wm6.1 rom)
thx
--fleity

no no no man!
you need to search download and isntall this:
1.- Netcompact frameworks v3 (or newer)
2.- Advanced Config v2 (or newer)
3.- Searching time
hope this works... cause advanced config change the keyboard to many other lang i use qwertz cause my keyboard is german.

Did you get the german keyboard somehow?
I still use the patch from ZakMcRofl, it switches the hardware keyboard to german and adds an additional German soft-keyboard. It would be better to have the standard keyboard switched to German, though, instead of adding an new one.

Whate ever you want
if this works for you FINE! if works better yours Fine TOO!
Keep the good support.

It works, but as I wrote it would be better to use the standard keyboard in german. Now I have two soft-keyboards: english and german. Is there a solution without installing the .Net v3?

i get an error when installing netcfv35.wmmarv4i.cab. do i have the wrong file?
the installation runs until the end and then the following error appears (of course in german... though my rom is in english):
Installationerror.
Shut down all tasks and processes, maximize the available storage and run the installation again. supportinformation: 3
after pressing ok the normal "you have to restart the device to complete installation. ok to restart, cancel to continue" message is displayed.
but netcf is not installed
i choose to install it on the device.
are there seperate version for different languages? link to english and german version?

when you set the hardware keyboard to another language, exit the registry editor, then turn off the device with the power button (not softreset, not hardreset) turn it back on and THEN softreset.
I did that a few hours back and it worked like a charm.
The Device first has to write the contents into the database, it is NOT immediately saved after you exit the Registry Editor.
I found that one out after I restored my Blue Angel to an older ROM after I tried WM6.5 by xplode.
My Messages went missing after I restored them and made a softreset.
When you restore something, or change something in the Registry, it gets saved in RAM, but not written until you set the device to sleep and wake it up again.

no sorry still the same problem.
i tried to change it to the french layout and even after sleep, turn on, softreset the reg value is really the one for the french layout but still its querty nothing else...
it's like the rom is using another registry value, no matter what i write in there nothing changes

SIP Change

Hi,
I have SIP change installed on my HTC Touch. But when restart my phone there's comes a messaging like: "The file "sipchange" can not opened. It is not signed with a trusted certificate or one of the components isn't found. You must this file install again or recover if this problem repeated". I have installed it a few times again, but no result. Does anyone know what te problem is?
Thank you

When dealing with complex issues.
The best is to hard reset it.
I have this problem previously and hard reset does it.
PS: Backup before hard reset.

No, it was my rom That program is for an English rom. I'm from the Netherlands so my rom is Netherlands too. The path to the *.exe is different between English and Netherlands. Because it is an other languages.

Oh.
Is it a language pack or something?
You're inputing other languages into the phone right?

My rom is dutch. The program Sip change is a program to change my default keyboard. If i do a soft reset, then cames my standard keyboard back. With sip change you can change that keyboard to an another keyboard like PocketCM.
This program starts directly after starting up my mobile. But he can't find the program self in /Program files/Sipchange/sipchange.exe. In dutch, this path isn't te same as English. Because it is a different language. That's why he can't find the .exe. But now it's over because i know what te problem was
Srry if you don't understand me te last post I tried to speak so good as possible english

Its okay.
Thanks for sharing that to me.
Cheers.

Problem with language settings

Hi,
My LEO has english ROM and Its obvious that all of the apps and stuff is in english - and thats fine for me - i want it that way.
But when typing a message I would like my LEO to use polish language dictionary (useful to Spell Correction, to Word Completion
[XT9] and so on).
I know that it is possible to set different language for text input, but when I open the list of languages to choose from, I see: german, french, etc. but NO polish;/
Does anyone know how to deal with this? How to get polish lang on the list?

install a registry editor and go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Tegic/eT9
click AvailableLanguages and add 0115 to the end of the value like:
0109,010C,0107,0110,010A,0115
then go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Tegic/eT9/LdbFiles
and add a new String value named 0115 with a value of PLlsUN_xt9.ldb
then go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\Sip\LanguageKeyBoardIDMapping
and add a new String value named 0115 with a value of 0915
reboot your device...

It will be there CZ or SK too ?? ? ? Thanks CLEVER MAN ! !!

I think Slovak is 011B, SKlsUN_xt9.ldb, LanguageKeyBoardIDMapping 091B
but I haven't tried so I'm not sure..
Also not sure CZ is in there.. there's no .ldb file with CZ or something.. any ideas what it might be called? I think the code should be 0105.
if the ldb file is there it should be located in the windows folder

I followed Your guide but I still seem to have a problem.
I opend text editor right after rebooting my device. I set language to Polish, turned word prediction on and started typing. I entered 1 word and clicked space button to start typing second word. And from this moment my device is not responding (I had to perform restart). I tried it for about 5 times - always thesame reaction.
So I performed hard reset, set device language to Polish (previously i had English). When my Leo was ready I changed the registry according to Your instruction and restarted the device. From that moment my Leo is restarting all the time long. I had to remove the battery and do the hard reset to make it work again.
Do You know what could cause the problem?

I just checked to add Polish but it works perfectly for me.. maybe check your spelling with the .ldb file and check if the file is present in the windows folder.. is it an original ROM?
When you set your device to polish (multi language device??), did you check if the dictionary was maybe already there before you changed the registry? A polish device should have a polish dictionary standard you should say..

Well it works (wejdz w jakies pole textowe->klawiatura->trojkat przy klawiaturze->ust wprow texty->wlacz sprawdzanie pisowni) type kocham then press it to keep it save on word list then type koham and you should be able to choices between both words. Correct one will be at center in order to press space to accept(space soft key).
Unluckly you have to type words by your own to have it in xt9

It loock like not all language could be activatet.
I try to do that for Ukraine but no result.
