Multilanguage smart dialing - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Multilanguage smart dialing For all of you that have smart dialing on their device, you can now add support to more languages then English.
As you know SmartDialing looks for a name in English or a sequence of digits (phone number).
A friend of mine developed an app to enable support for any language in the SmartDial mechanism, there is no need for any 3rd party apps or a unique dialer.
Due to the fact that SmartDial also looks for sequence of digits he developed a program (that run on the outlook installed on your Home PC),
the programs converts unique language fonts to numbers(lets call it "codes").
these codes will be saved in the specific contact's "radio" field and in the "home 2" field (this will allow you to search by first name or by family name).
on the IPAQ 600 you can have use a sticker on the hardware keys that will represent the fonts searched by each digit,
for phones that don’t have hardware keyboard you can crate a dialer skin that will show both english and your language fonts.
another simple solution is to memorize the location of your language's fonts per digit.
The application was built with other in mind, it has an XML file for layout so other non English users can use it and edit the XML to use their fonts.
please read the attached instruction before you start using it
To give you a sense of the app and what it dose I will give an example
if you have a name that looks like this
first name :" ΩΨΨ"
family name "ΡΠβН"
let's say that digit "1" on the dialer=(ΩΡΠ) and that digit "2" on your dialer=(βΨН)
the codes that will be crated for these names will be *122 in radio field of this contact and *1122 in home 2 field of this contact
To separate between codes and real phone numbers the developer added "*" at the beginning of any code. You don't need to add * before any search, the SmartDialing mechanism is smart enough to ignore the "*" and lokk directly for code.
To put things in short,
1. Backup your contacts
2. Download the app
3. Read instruction for installation and then edit the XML file to your fonts
(you will see in the XML file that 3=(אבג) witch also stands for "D" "E" "F" . now, replace the אבג with you own fonts for every single digit)
4. Convert all the names to codes using this app.
5. Sync your device
p.s.
when you search for a name in you dialer, the name will show like this:
"name of your contact" and "code the app created",
tap on the name then tap on the real phone number you want to dial (so you wont dial the code)
The conversion can be done sevral times on the same database, for instance if you add more contacts or change an name.
To use this on any phone(fast or slow) you must have SmartDialing installed and your own language's fonts installed on the "device\windows\fonts" directory.
I hope it helps anyone,
enjoy SmartDialing for english and your own language for free

Mortscript for iphone theme?

Hi, I had installed an "iphone" theme and had read that I can write a mortscript so that it would dial a specific #, but do not have all the info (it was 3am).
The website's currently down, so I can't ask questions there atm. Can someone help me?
I wanted to use page2 as a "picture contact phone dial" and wonder if this is correct:
1. Have a .bmp file and name it "Joe"
2. Write a mortscript and name it Joe.
a. Is it: Run("Program Files\VJDialer.exe 123456
b. the 123456 would be the phone #, right?
c. do I need the area code too, if it's within the same zone?
3. Assign the "Joe" icon to one of the icons on page2.
4. The path for that icon would be \program files\mortscript\joe.exe
Would clicking on the "joe" icon call up the phone & dial Joe's #?
I got it to work early this morning as a test, but when I went to delete that path and put in some else's #, it no longer works. I can assign the button to that file (exe) but it doesn't do anything. I am wondering if my mortscript is incorrect? Did I miss something crucial?
Thanks
MortScript Dialing
I use Vijay555.com's VJDailer and a 2 line .mscr Script:
Number="##########"
Run("\Program Files\vijay555\VJDialer.exe",&Number)
--Of Course Replace the ### with the number you want
Using cprog.exe does work, but it will prompt to check the number which is kinda annoying. To use cprog.exe It would look like this:
Number="########## "
param="-n -url tel:" & &last
Run("cprog.exe",&param)
Good Luck.
Did you ever get this to work. I have set up the iphone config to execute the mort script, but nothing happens.
When I click directly on the mort script from explorer, it makes the call.
I'm using Grumpy's latest iphone screen program.
Thanks.
I did some more searching and am just usingthe cprog 2 button method for now. I'll check back in on this later.

Auto PIN code entry

Not all sim card allows the user to configure startup without entering pin code. Mine doesn't so I've searched for some small utility run at system startup which would enter the pin code automatically.
There's an option like that in one backup program so it's possible. If the program exists please direct me to it.
If it does not exist maybe someone can write simple command line app as an exercise?
I know PhoneAlarm from PocketMax can do this for you. It is an advanced option in (PhoneAlarm configuration -> Last tab About -> click on little Configuration image link -> search through the text file for PIN/SIM)
PhoneAlarm is no freeware, but it's the only one I know of that could do it. so you could try and see...
And it has so much other very nice and unique features, that it's worth it's money
I don't know what I'm doing wrong but auto pin entry in PhoneAlarm doesn't work for me (Wizard with NBD 9.2).
didn't try it myself, i prefer a pin request.
but you could try to post your problem on the pockemax forum, they are very fast in support.
you could try writing a simple script in Mortscript. AFAIK everybody who seriously tries and reads the mortscript description can do it. It's very much like editing config.sys or autoexec.bat for DOS computers.
I could do so if a knew the registry key with that value: the two PIN codes. But I've been looking for them without results. I use scripts to find operator name, but nothing about PIN codes. Any suggestion?
Mortscript can simulate a sequence of key presses and stylus clicks, use that just the way you type in your PIN manually.
I've tried to send my pin code with CR to the "Phone" (that's the name on the title bar when the pin kaypad is visible) application but it tries to dial that number.
Anyone succeed?
Asking software developers
I know at least two applications that have this option: SBSH PhoneWeaver 1.2 and SPB Backup. Maybe if somebody knows something about the "internals" of this aplicattions can develop a similar aplicattion to do this...
Hi,
I had the same issue and i also couldn't find any dedicated tool or app to solve that. So i decided to write a simple program that will dial a PIN into that PIN entry dialog for me.
But shortly i found HTC's app Windows\CMPin.exe on my Diamond2's Natoha Rom which solves the problem in a correct way. It comes with HTC's Phone dialer. It works fine!
Anyway if you don't have the CMPin.exe on your device or you couldn't find its cab then you still can use my SIM PIN Unlocker.
Here the tool SIM PIN Unlocker!
To use it you only need to install it and set the registry value HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SIM_PIN_Unlocker\PIN from 0000 (this is disabled state) to your pin entry (6902 for example), and here we go
It runs on startup and once it dialed the PIN into PIN entry dialog and sends "enter" key it closes. It will dial the PIN only once, in case the PIN was wrong you will still have 2 more attempts to enter the right PIN, and sure change the registry value to a correct one.
The tool will exit after a minute if it couldn't manage to find the PIN entry window.
I have tested in on mt Diamond2 and HTC Prophet (i-mate JamIn), on both works fine.

another sip keyboard when stylus going out

Hi!
I'm looking for the aplication or registry tweak which can swich sip keyboard depend on stylus action (in or out). For example, I want to have microsoft keyboard when stylus is out and compact qwerty when stylus is in. Solution from diamond/pro forum doesn't work.
Use HtcExtFun
when I tried to use it I received the information "can't initialize SIP CLSIDs for stylus status" and doesn't work for me
Have you edited the .reg file before importing it into the registry? You have to write the EXACT name (case sensitive) of the SIPs you want to use
yes, I've edited but the same information is appear...
Dunno, on my HD works a charm
I don't find the name of my sip keyboard in the registry to update the reg, any idea about it ?
why do you search it in registry? The name is exactely the one written in the popup menu when you change SIP within an app. In french i can only guess: something like "Récoineisseur elaboré", and "Clavier Téléphonique" and so on?
Here is a link: HtcExtFun
It doesn't seems to work on french touch HD : Nothing change when stylus is in or out. I tried v1 and v2; I tried differents keyboards : no error message, but nothing happened : always the same keyboard.
Elodie said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Works fine for me, I got my HD from Singapore though, but it shouldn't matter.
Here is what I did:
- I downloaded HtcExtFun version 0.2 from here.
- Unzipped it
- Modified "HtcExtFun-OnlyStylusSip.reg" with Notepad++ and changed these two values:
"StylusInSipName"="Full QWERTY"
"StylusOutSipName"="Keyboard"​- If you want to use different SIP, goto Start Menu > Settings > Input, you'll find there the different SIP possible and their names.
- So once you changed the wanted SIP, you create a folder "HtcExtFun", and copy "HtcExtFun.exe" and "HtcExtFun-OnlyStylusSip.reg" that you just modified in it.
- Then you put that folder into your SD card.
The rest is done from the Touch HD itself.
- Copy the "HtcExtFun" folder under ProgramFiles.
- Run "HtcExtFun-OnlyStylusSip.reg" from there (you need an installed registry editor such as Resco's otherwise you'll get an error)
- Then you can Run "HtcExtFun.exe" and it should works.
But as soon as you Soft reset your device, you'll have to run again "HtcExtFun.exe", unless you want it to auto-start, here is how to do that:
- Using Windows Mobile's file explorer, you copy "HtcExtFun.exe"
- Then go to Windows/StartUp
- then "Paste Shortcut"
Et voila!
The problem is that I'm not sure how to remove the values from the registry if we want to uninstall that hack. But I want to keep it anyway, it's quite practical.
I'm sure we can do all of that automatically using a CAB, and have the possibility to uninstall as well, but I never created any CAB yet.
It would also be nice to have a little program to change the values of the chosen SIP directly from the settings of the Blackstone.
Dis moi si ça marche pour toi.
Im using SIP Change to change the SIP by application. Works nice! You have to use SKSchema to detect the opened window and then launch SIPchange.exe with a parameter (f.e.: Full QWERY) . not hard to configure.

HELP AND FAQ - Frequently asked questions
Read this whole text before using the FingerKeyboard or asking for help! If your question is already answered in FAQ it will be ignored. Don't be lazy!
What version should I install on my XYZ device? / What is WVGA, WQVGA, VGA and QVGA?
To successfully install Fingerkeyboard on your device, you need to pick the correct version for your phone. For example, let's say you want to find out what resolution Samsung Omnia has. Type "Samsung Omnia review" into Google, and among the first few results usually you'll get the most popular review sites listed. Reviews always contain resolution information, so we easily find out that Samsung Omnia has a 400x240 pixels resolution. That means you should install FingerKeyboard WQVGA cab.
Here's the list of supported resolutions for FingerKeyboard, with their standard abbreviations:
WVGA - 800x480
WQVGA - 400x240
VGA - 640x480
QVGA - 320x240
Download these resolutions from here!
How can i uninstall FingerKeyboard?
Go to Settings > System > Remove programs.
It is listed as "Exidler's FingerKeyboard"
Why does FingerKeyboard look differently on my device then on the screenshots?
There can be some small differences between the screenshots and what you see on your screen. The reason for this is that different layouts can have different features, graphic elements or button layouts. We consider English layout to be the "standard" layout, with best combination of button size and positions.
How can I type those special characters that appear above normal characters?
Press and hold a key.
How to switch to full CAPS?
Press and hold the shift button.
Spacebar
If you press and hold spacebar button it will write a dot followed by a space.
How to use text selection?
Switch to full CAPS mode and then use arrow buttons to select text.
How to use cut / copy / paste / undo?
Switch to full CAPS mode, select the text you want to cut or copy, and press and hold ^c or ^x characters. Then press and hold ^v to paste. On some layouts these are named "cut", "copy" and "pst". Same thing with "undo" option - you can use "undo" at any moment, and it will take you back for unlimited number of steps.
Where is that Config tool you mention?
After you install FingerKeyboard, go to Start > Programs > Finger Keyboard.
How can I switch to numeric keyboard?
Press 123 button. If your layout does not have dedicated 123 button, press Shift and 123 will appear on your Language toggle button. Behavior of Language toggle button can be customized in Configuration tool.
How can I change a color scheme of the keyboard?
Config tool > Main > Color scheme: select which ever you like and press OK or Apply.
How can I select language layouts?
Config tool > Main: you will see a list of all language layouts you have in your FingerKeyboard folder. Put a tick next to the layouts you want to use and press OK or Apply. We also advise you to physically delete layouts you don't want to use from oyur device (Program files / FingerKeyb / Skins). This will make Config tool start up a little bit faster and use less memory.
What are all those Backspace options in Config tool?
Behavior of Backspace key can be customized to suit your needs. You can separately control what will Backspace do on short click and long press, as well as how it will behave in small caps or caps lock mode.
How to minimize or turn off the keyboard?
Short press the keyboard toggle button (the one with small keyboard or switch sign on it). Long press on this button will turn off FingerKeyboard and switch to default HTC keyboard.
How to disable click sound?
Run FingerKeyboard Config tool. Under "Options" tab you will find a "Press sound" box. Here you can select from several different click sounds, all of which have "quiet" and "loud" versions. This is useful if you want a subtle click sound, but don't want to lower the volume for the whole System. There is also a "no sound option".
How can I get vibration feedback?
Config tool > Options tab > Press vibrate. Here you can select how long you want the vibration feedback to last. Minimum of 20ms will get you a barely noticeable vibration effect, while 80ms will be very strong.
How can I control the key-press delay? / What is "Hold time" / Can I make the keys repeat on press+hold?
"Hold time" option in Config tool is a cool option you can use to control how long it will be needed for a key to be continuously pressed before it writes a letter or performs an action. This part of the "Hold time" function is controlled with numbers in the first box. The second box controls how long will it take for a key to be continuously pressed before it starts repeating itself. So, if you put 500ms in the first box, and 200ms in the second box, that means you will have to press a key for 500ms before it performs it's "long press" action, and 200ms more before it starts repeating that function. If you hold the key even longer, it will then gradually accelerate.
Can I hide / show Windows menu bars?
Yes, go to Config tool and under "Options" tab select how you want the keyboard to display in Portrait and Landscape mode. We suggest selecting "Show bar" for portrait, and "Hide bar" for landscape.
I want the pop-up images to stay longer on screen. How can I do this?
In Config tool, Options tab, there is a "Popup time" box. Here you can select how long will the pop-up image stay on screen after a key has been pressed. If you set pop-up time to 1500ms, this means the pop-up image will stay on screen for 1.5 seconds, or until next key is pressed. Pop-up image delay affects ONLY the normal character keys (A,B,C,D etc). Special action keys, such as Shift, Space, Backspace etc. have default short time and will not stay on your screen. This is done to avoid action keys images covering large areas of the screen with their larger pop-up images.
What are Smiles / Shortcuts?
This is a feature that no other keyboard has. It allows you to control what any of the several predefined actions keys will do when you press and hold them. Almost all layouts have these special actions included (between 7 and 11 actions on most of the layouts). You can control what will show up on a key when you open the keyboard, as well as what that key will write when you press+hold it. For example, you can type into "Key text" box "info" and into "Action text" you could type "John Smith, gsm:00123456789, e-mail: [email protected]". Or maybe your favorite web address. Or your signature. Or your wife's name. Or your lover's name for all we care The possibilities are endless! You can do the same thing for smiles - if you don't like the default ones, use your own, or something else!
A special key I need is missing / Can I customize smiles / Can I change shortcuts?
If there's a key missing in your language layout, you can easily add it yourself by using either Smiles or Shortcuts tab in Config tool. Simply type the missing key into two of the horizontal boxes and the key will appear when you long press a button that has that Smiles / Shortcut action.
Why does XYZ language layout have only a few smiles / shortcuts buttons?
Some language layouts have very high demands regarding the number of characters they need to occupy. Because of this there are a few language layouts that may have a smaller number of smiles / shortcuts spaces reserved. We have tried to include as many as possible, believe us!
How can I make FingerKeyboard a default keyboard? / How can I keep FingerKeyboard as default keyboard even after reset?
You can use a small program called SIP Change. Look it up on XDA-developers.com forum, and remember to set delay to 40-50 seconds.
"Where is XYZ language layout? Why is it not included!?"
If you want a certain language layout, first check FingerKeyboard2.1 thread on XDA-developers.com forum if someone maybe already made an additional layout and posted it there. If not, the best thing you can do is to make your own layout and share it with other people. If your layout is good, we'll probably include it in next version. Please do not spam us with "I WANT THIS LANGUAGE!!!" messages. All language layouts depend exclusively on the community to produce them. If no one can't be bothered to make your language layout, we can't really help you.
Editing instructions:
You can use the existing layouts to make it custom layouts! The easiest way is to open one of the layout skin txt files and replace the existing characters with your own. Experiment a bit, and you will soon get the hang of it. Same applies if you want to make your own skin - edit the included bitmaps, and change the appropriate lines in txt files. Everything you want to know about FingerKeyboard actions, layouts, colors and resolutions is explained in "doc-about-skin.txt" that is located in the root of the FingerKeyb folder. Read it first before asking for help!
​
XT9 & TEXT SUGGESTION:
This keyboard does not support T9. However, there is an option to enable standard Windows Mobile word suggestion, as well as SMS contact name suggestion. There are two ways to do this.
First way is to use the FingerKeyboard Config tool and select what you want to use (Word / SMS suggestion, or both). SMS suggestions will work normally, but for WinMo word suggestion to function, you will need to switch to HTC default keyboard and manually turn on XT9 on the little T9 switch. After that, you can reload FingerKeyboard and everything will work normally. This can be a good way for people who like to use T9 on other keyboards, but also want to use FingerKeyboard without T9. This approach also makes it possible to use new HTC style suggestion windows (the ones with small arrows on each side, where you can flip between names / words).
To avoid messing around with XT9 switch on HTC keyboard you can simply globally disable XT9 across the whole system. That means that T9 will not work even on system keyboards that have T9 support, but SMS / Word suggestions will both work. This will disable the HTC style suggestion windows, and use the default WinMo style (opens a simple white window with list of suggested words or names). The patch file which disables XT9 globally is attached in this post. This patch can be uninstalled. If you already have it installed, you do not have to remove it or reinstall it. Also, please note that when you install this patch, you will not be able to select SMS /Word options in FingerKeyb config tool - they will always be grayed out.
Click Here to Download this Patch
It might be best to install the FingerKeyb cab and test it first. You can always globally disable XT9 later on if you decide so.
There is a known bug with Word suggestion, that has been almost fully fixed in this version of FingerKeyboard. The bug manifests itself like this:
- if you have "Text word suggestion" turned on, and you type an SMS message, the "home" and "end" buttons will not work while the word suggestion window is open on the screen. If you select a word, those keys will work normally. Unfortunately, this isn't our fault - it's actually a bug in Word suggestion app.​

Looks very nice... installing it now! Thx!
edit: works very smooth and nice too!
Thats what im waiting for
You can customize nearly everything, thats awesome
Thank you very much Giannis
My thanks goes also to Exidler and Rozenthal
this is by far the best keyboard i have used!!
any chance of an oem package in the future?
excellent work! thank you thank you!
is it possible to get the up/down/left/right arrows on the bottom row of the keyboard?
thanks
Awesome job! Thank you
Looks fantastic- ill give feedback after testing. What i like so far, even without trying is that this is what im looking for in terms of apps for my WM fone. As Msoft has failed completely in this regard, it is up to us to create these type of apps and to make sure that they are usable and well documented. Unfortunately, many apps are half-assed (not an insult to their creators- it is simply not possible for an individual or a small group of people to do what the entire team at apple or HTC does) so often times, they can cause more problems then they solve as bugs upon bugs are discovered. What we need is comprehensive apps that are presented in an organized manner like this. An example is the FAQ section which is great (cuts down clutter- a thread does not need to be 200 pages long) because we all hate those who ask questions over and over again that have been already asked and most of the time- even answered. Way to go!
Edit: Works smoothly. Good customization options. Addresses major flaws in most other keyboards (example- .com and www. shortcuts). No bugs discovered yet. Would like to see directional arrows at bottom option in customization menu as we all hate the useless dpad on our Fuzes. So far...highly recommended!!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I had no uninstall option either. I just installed the newest version, it would not work. So I uninstalled the new version, deleted the finger folder, soft reset, reinstalled, soft reset and it works fine. I have a Diamond as well.
Good luck.
Will there be a port of the Glossy version ??
predtxt
I see that there's predtxt in the language selection. May I know what is it? Is it a language or a special feature?
Thanks.
to answer some questions:
version with arrows will be uploaded today
unfortunately it cant be configured from the config tool
Predtxt is my special features..its predefined texting..try it...i will post some screenshots soon
to uninstall versions that were installed manually:
click on register, and then choose NO from the popup...after that delete the whole fingerkeyboard folder
whatever you do, do NOT install this over another...
edit:Glossy edition will be adjusted too..but it will take a while as i have to finish other stuff first
Great Work Giannis86 !!!

Hi,
Here is Ukrainian layout. Can you put it into the installation?

[Q] Keypad entry for numeric field.

Hy,
As for my first app, I am trying to make a simple converter like app. The app isn't sophisticated, just need to enter a quantity in mass, a density and compute the resulting quantity in volume.
The main issue is to get a confortable UI, for touchscreen and soft keyboard devices.
As the entry only require numeric, I'd rather have a numeric keypad poping up rather than the complete alaphnumerical keyboard.
As for an example, I use 'currency converter' witch pop up exactly the good keypad for it's amount to convert.
So far I haven't found any documentation how to manage this behaviour.
I'd really appreciate any advise, link to a doc page or solution.
One thing to look at is:
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/text/InputType.html
In Eclipse:
-Open your layout xml file.
-Click on your EditText field and then go to properties.
-In the properties there is an 'Inputtype' field. If you click on the '...' button it will show you many options. This is where you define the field as 'number' or 'phone' and it will show the number keypad by default when you click on your field when using the app.
Let me know how it goes and if you have any other questions.
