Did you install a US ROM? If so you should be able to fix this by installing a WWE ROM I think.

Yes you can fix it, its a simple registry entry, in the
HCKU\ControlPanel\keybd entry
add a DWORD called LOCALE with a value of 0809

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.

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?!?!

HELP - Keyboard issue

Hello XDA
I have just noticed that the "?" key (FN P) is not typing the ? but an ";". Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

Fn P on my UK QWERTY X1 has ; on the keyboard. ? is at the bottom and doesn't need the Fn key.

Wierd,
Mine has the ? mark on the P key in blue. There must be a setting then for this somewhere in the OS

Austrian QUERTZ has the "?" on "Fn"+"P" and the ";" is "SHIFT"+","
Seems you have an English ROM installed but you would need a German one.

ok my keyboard is:
"?" on "Fn"+"P" the ";" is on "SHIFT"+"," the "+" is on "Fn"+"N". Any ideas

You have flashed UK rom on non UK device, that is your problem. Most of non UK X1 have localized keyboards and they will work ok only with org language rom. The only way for you is to find keyboard driver and swap it to your X1 orginal language.

Ok I just did a hard reset and it flashed itself. So I need to reload it somehow?

Are you kidding me?
Does not changing CurLang value work on X1?
Go to HKLM\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD and there find CurLang value. You need to open the file and change the 1033 to the value of your device. I do not have the values here, but they are on XDA, please search the forums for the answer.

Where is your device from?

I assume that Austrian and German layouts are the same.
Go to the key I posted above and change it to 1031, close your reg editor and there probably is not even soft reset needed...
EDIT: If that gives the wrong layout try 3079 after that. (I do not know of this code is supported)

Under the device settings it shows GENERIC_UK... Other then that no idea, I do know the manuals came in some other language.. so not sure.

Use registry editor program, like the free Total Commander and do as I posted earlier.

(Note that I am guessing that your device has the German QWERTZ layout?)

I just tested this and it does work. Changing CurLang to 1031 changes the layout to QWERTZ and "?" is under "P" etc... Soft reset needed after change.
People please use the SEARCH on the boards. All these type of problems most likely have been addressed in other devices.

I got total commander installed, where do I find the registry at? Currently I am seeing a directory listing.

go to \\plugins, there is registry folder...

Well we are close! now the z and the y keys are backwards. Any other numbers to try? Thanks!

Ok then your device is not with German layout?

What country is this device from, that would help you know... Did you bought it used?

Bought it brand new from someone on Amazon, not sure what country it was from other than the booklets where not in English.

Best thing would be that you find out what country your device is from, the booklets should give you that info...
I think that you have bought a device that had a English rom installed by the seller and he did the right localization for it. Now that you did a hard reset everything went back to the original rom setup.
This will be no problem when you find out where your device is from.
Does it have a carrier branding?

Ok it looks like the manuals are in Swedish Language... Viktig Information is written on the main manual.
Also
Sweden address on the back of one of than manuals

hardware keyboard+ Custom ROM problem :S áü key doesnt work

hey guys
i noticed that i cant use the áü key on the keyboard :S
and i read that it is in all the custom ROM´s so :S
can someone fix this? because the key is sometimes necesary/comfortable
i'am using Charons lite and fast 1.3... how it is with the other who got a custom rom? can you use the áü key?^^

If you are using a ROM in a different language (which i do not think), try this.
Otherwise I would guess you have installed a differnt Softwarekeyboard.

software keyboard: XT9....but if i use the hardware keyboard....and for example i write a A...if i then press on the àü key it should be a another A...with some smybols or so^^ and if i press again i should scroll trough all the different A´s
the layout is OK...it is german..also QWERTZ ^^( Z is Z on the keyboard if i press it )

Different Softkeyboards can screw your áÜ button...try another one (the one from the R3A Update might (??) work...

there is a update for the XT9 keyboard?...i will search for it

Now i use a self cooked 6.5 WWE-Rom and can't get all the FN-Keys back on my german X1. Y and Z ar at the right place (after changing "CurLang" to 1031), the "ß" is working too. But all the other second allocations with FN on the HW keyboard don't work.
I remember on my old Herald there was a cab for bringing the complete german layout back - is there something similar to this out for the X1?
At least - is ist possible to change the layout before cooking?

I have now figured out, that the keys are working. But i have to press them for a long time and then i can't control how much sings would are printed. Is there any soution for this?

QWERTZ key layout in MIUI Rom?

Hello,
I have installed the new MIUI V 7.2 Multilanguage from here.
My question is if it is possible to change the keyboard layout from QWERTY to QWERTZ (German layout)

I would assume /system/usr/keylayout/qwerty.kl would let you, I don't know how a German keyboard is but switch the letters around and it should change their function, it will probably still 'show' y on the keyboard but when you press it it'll print z; that's my take anyway. Use Word for easier formatting.

Thank you very much for your answer
how can I change values there? I've opened the file and I can also switch the letters but it is not possible to save the new values...
I've tried three different editors? Do you know an editor which can also save the values?
(German layout is only different in Z and Y - they are changed )

Easiest way would to just copy it to your computer and edit it there (you can use any text editor, I use Word just because it makes it easier to read but I used Notepad in the past), then ADB push it back and restart.
