Do i have to change the keybddr.dll for it?
Not to be a "me 2"er, but I am looking to swap the comma and period. They're on the same key, but I have to use the "Option" button (round dot) to get a comma. Well, when I'm option-locked and typing numbers, I use the period a lot more than when I'm typing letters. I'd like to see a way to simply swap those two functions on that key.

I have recently stumbled upon a problem which I just cant solve so I was hoping somebody can help me out since I searched this and the web for a solution.
If you want to connect to a WEP encrypted wireless network, you need to enter the key in ASCII format since there is no option to enter it in hexadecimal. Now this works fine as long as the ASCII keys are regular numbers and letters. however if your WEP key uses ASCII keys such as Æ (corresponds to C6 in hex) or other unusual characters, there is no way of entering the key since they do not appear in the symbols menu of the S710. Now what I already tried was to copy and paste the symbols from a textfile I created on the pc and then transfered it to the S710. Even though the characters appear fine in the WEP key box, the S710 will not connect to the network stating the key would be incorrect. So obviously Windows Mobile 6 recognises the characters in some form but then it wont work for the WEP keys.
So I was wondering is there anyway I can enter the hexadecimal key? Maybe directly into the registry over an editor? Or maybe there is a zero config utility that will accept hexadecimal keys?
Any help would be appreciated.
Can't speak for anyone but myself, but I, too, have a S710 and have had no trouble connecting to my home wlan using a hex wep key. Might be that my wep key contains no digits over 9, so it only "uses numbers", but I do believe that like many other programs, CommManager identifies ASCII keys from HEX by their lenght. (ie. for a 64bit key the ASCII key is 5 characters, while the hex is 10; 13 and 26 for a 128bit key respectively)
I could check and change my router to use a key with digits greater than 10, and report back, but once again, I'm only speaking for myself, YMMV.
My ASCII WPA key was randomly generated and has unusual characters in it - I had to convert the key from ASCII to hex on my PC (I used linux) and then used the converted value to connect.
My desktop PC uses the ASCII key and my mobile devices use the hex conversion of the ASCII key.
So I tested, and set a completely random hex key, including non-english characters, and the hex key worked like a charm on my HTC Vox, just as I expected.

So, you're saying that you, too, haven't had problems using HEX keys on your mobile?
Hi all!
does anybody have an idea how to add some characters to the keys when the FN key is pressed? For example I wabt to have a special character when I press FN,a or FN,b. Is there any registry entry which holds the values of the already assigned keys?
thanx for your help
I know this is the wrong section, this belongs in Flipout Development more than likely, but apparently, i don't have a sufficient post count to post it there. If a moderator would be so kind? ^_^
The application, ButtonRemapper, detailed at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=850464 , only lets you bind certain functions to your keys.
I moved from a WM-based Samsung Epix to the Flipout, and sorely missed my dedicated comma key. I would get rid of the nigh-used SYM key for the comma key any day, and ButtonRemapper didn't do the trick.
So, i used Root Explorer to check out the keyboard profiles at /system/usr/keylayout/, and edited them in it's text editor. Of course, you can always pull the files with the SDK, but this is quicker and cleaner.
To bind the comma to the SYM key (key 162), i just changed one line from:
Code:
key 162 SYM WAKE_DROPPED
to
Code:
key 162 COMMA WAKE_DROPPED
for all the .kl files there that contained key 162. One reboot later, and bam. Figured i'd post this here for all those who care. I know i'm not the only one that punctuates my sentences properly, and appreciates a handy comma key.
Hi folks,
I'm trying to remap the hardware buttons of my rooted Xperia Pro with stock ICS 4.0.4, but there are some quirks that trouble me.
Basically, I want to
1.) remap the language button on the QWERTZ hardware keyboard.
2.) Prevent the camera button from unlocking the phone - just press power to show the lock screen, then hold camera button, the press home key and you'll see how easy it is for the phone to unlock in your pocket.
So far, I parsed through the keyboard layout files in /system/usr
I remapped key 368 in pm8058-keypad.kl to CTRL_LEFT, which did not seem to make any difference! Language button still invokes language dialog
I also modified quertz.xml and qwerty-en.xml by replacing META_LANGUAGE with META_CTRL_LEFT - did not make any difference.
Of course, I rebooted the phone inbetween...
Regarding 2), I have no clue. Butting WAKE_DROPPED behind CAMERA and FOCUS in pm8058-keypad.kl does not help.
I could use some help with key remapping as well. If I find some info i'll send it your way.
No progress for me so far... anyone?

I want to re-map the 0 (Zero) key and the OK button orientation on the PIN Lock feature. Any info what files I need to change?
I GOT IT!!! partially at least....
Reading through http://source.android.com/tech/input/key-character-map-files.html and http://source.android.com/tech/input/key-layout-files.html once again, I finally found something that pointed me into the right direction!
I order to make my change to the Language button work (remapping key 368 to CTRL_LEFT), there are two possible ways:
1.) Set hardware keyboard to FULL keyboard type by replacing "type ALPHA" with "type FULL" in /system/usr/keychars/pm8058-keypad.kcm
This will make the hardware keyboard work without any additional GUI, so pressing shift will allow you to select text and copy&paste via ctrl+a,c,v,x now works (This still depends on the app you are using. Some do ignore this, some will still work with menu+a,c,v,x instead)
But beware:, in order to enter numbers or upper case letters, you now have to keep the modifier key pressed.
Printable characters can be edited via /system/usr/keychars/pm8058-keypad.kcm, non-printables like modifier keys can be edited via /system/usr/keylayout/pm8058-keypad.kl
Android keycode names can be found here: http://source.android.com/tech/input/keyboard-devices.html
Until now, I was unable to create a solution for entering special characters like ä,ö,ü
I tried to via sym or meta keyword in .kcm file while mapping the Sym key to SYMBOL or META_LEFT via the .kl file, but it didn't work...
2.) The .xml files in /system/usr/keyboard-config/layouts are used only with the keyboard configured as "type ALPHA". In order to identify the correct .xml file, you have to parse through the files in /system/usr/keyboard-config/languages and look for the script keyword, which in conjunction with the declarations in /system/usr/keyboard-config/keyprint.xml will tell you to the layout xml file for your device localisation.
Now, in order to remap printable characters, you have to edit the correct layout xml file and for non-printable characters, you have to edit the scancodes.xml file in /system/usr/keyboard-config.
Unfortunately, shift-selecting text will not work with "type ALPHA" mode and it seems that editing scancodes.xml is not sufficient to remap language button to CTRL_LEFT, but the .kl file has to be changed, too.
