Hi folks,
I made a "German Language Pack" (cab), which makes some german features available. See below
I am also working on a french version but I do nt have the french dictionary file for spell checking (mssp2_fr.lex) nor a french table for áà,... (sym.txt). If anyone could pm it to me I would be happy to update the language pack. Until then spell checking and symbols are as original only...
How-To:
1. download zip-file and unzip
2. copy cab-file to PPC
3. execute cab-file.
4. Softreset device
More information on the changes to registry and the included files are in the enclosed inf-file.
This tool was written for the Wizard device, but as the only Wizard-specific things are the settings for the hardkeyboard there shouldn't be any complications with other devices running WM5.
If anyone has suggestions for improving my little tool I would be pleased, if you could tell me!!
Hades.
new version with autocomplete feature added.
Still working on softkeyboard... - any suggestions?
hi hades,
does your little localizer work with the new aku2-roms? i have a himalaya aka xda2 with tofclock's 2.01a64wwe rom which is aku2. thanks for any info.
peter
i cannot report for any Himalaya images as using a Wizard (i-mate ROM 2.16). But the little tool does nothing system-critical. It only adds a view files and changes some registry settings, which are pointing to these files or concerning language settings. Therefore it should work with any WM5-device and -ROM, without interfering with any other abilities. I guess the settings concerning the hardkeyboard will just be ignored if the device does not have one.
For further information on all actions taken by the tool, please have a look at the enclosed inf file.
Hope that helped!

transcriber doesn't work any more
I've just installed your french language pack on my Dopod with the latest Dopod rom 2.15.13.27 WWE and the transcriber doesn't work any more not in French neither in English. I get the message: Une erreur est survenue lors du chargement du moteur de reconnaissance de fichier.dll Vérifiez le chemin et la quantité de mémoire disponible.
I've followed your instructions and installed it successfully but I then got the message that the program was meant for an older version of WM and that maybe it would not work.
Is there a way to uninstall it without messing with the registry? My problem is worsened by the fact I can't manage a hard reset. I tried everything holding down the power button with the stylus in the small hole, sometimes also holding down the camera button at the same time, sometimes with the device turned on and sometimes turned off. No way, impossible to hard reset! Please help me, and thank you anyway for your work. I was very excited and I am now very disappointed.
yes it's a good idea
thanks
sorry 'bout that. I wasn't able to test the french language pack myself. I have overlooked the file and cannot imagine why it shouldn't work as it is similiar to the german one which is working quite well. Information on the changed registry settings are in the enclosed inf-file.
But anyway you should be able to uninstall it with the WM5 built-in uninstall feature (Settings --> System --> remove(?) programs). Perform a softreset thereafter by long pressing the standby-button (not digging the reset hole!)
To Hard reset your device you have to press and hold the comm and voicedial buttons simultanously, then press the reset button (small hole) with your pen, while still holding the other two buttons for a while, until finally you are questioned if you wan to completly delte your device. You have to confirm by pressing the green button. Make sure you have a bakup - I'd recommend SPB Backup.
Well, once again sorry.
Hades.
Thank you again for your kind answer. Actually I had to reflash my rom cause I couldn't do any hard reset. I was stupid not to think of removing the program first, since I didn't think it was a "regular" program. You mention the comm and voice dial buttons as two different buttons but actually on my Dopod it's only one button. Did you mean then the power and voice dial together, which coud make sense and which I didn't try cause nothing like it is mentioned in the user guide. Do you think I could have got the problem with your program because I used the stylus in the hole to soft reset my device after installing the french package. It is the procedure mentioned in the user guide for soft reset, contrary to what you tell me now. Thanks again
oh ok - I was assuming you have a HTC Wizard (don't know the dopod model number). If it's not a Wizard I have no idea how to hardreset it. But I hope you're using WM5, for my little utility is for WM5 only.
If you do a soft-reset after a change of the registry using the reset-hole the changed settings may not be stored on your device. That is because the registry-file is not immediatly updated after the changes, but stored in a temporary space and later (who knows when!) written to the file. So if you reset it by hardware-button the changes are still in the temporary space and therefore gone after the reset. If you do the reset by using software-reset function (provided by e.g. SPB Pocket+ or magicbutton) or simply switch off the device using the standby-button, the temporary space is written to disk before shutting down. That's it.
À bientôt,
Hades.
P.S.: I updated the language pack, cause I found a minor difference to the german one. (Compare inf-file) But I can't tell, that that was the problem.
My Dopod is a 818Pro with WM5, so it's a Prophet and practically the same as a Wizard, as I've seen in the forum. What you say about soft reset is very interesting since I haven't seen it discussed very often in this forum and i searched it quite thoroughly. Have you tried removing your program through the regular WM5 procedure? You seem to imply that the registry was not changed after my soft resetting with the hardware button, but it seems strange to me since after resetting I got the french warning I mentioned in my first post, and it was the first ever message in french from my english speaking device! Some change had definitely occured in the registry or somewhere else. Thanks again
well. I tried to remove and it worked. Concerning your registry I don't know wether it was changed or not. Depends on many things, I think.
Sorry,
Hades.
I've just installed the German package on my Himalaya device with English AKU 3.2. It works Thank you Hades!

Hello,
I have a P3600 with WM5 and th following problem:
I create a new task and I am writing on English and on Greek Language.
When I close the task and reopen it I can read only the english and all greek letters with ??????.
I didn't had this problem before but maybe started after a program installation. I have remove the latest programs (slovoed dictionary and few others) but the problem still remains.
Anybody with solution for this problem?
Thanks
is there any way to change the keyboard layout to german? i managed to change it to qwertz via regedit but it wont work for äüö any ideas?
third party software? The "special" characters will only be able by the default menu. (in the onscreen keyboard, tap a character and slide to the left or right while holding it)
I mean the hardware keyboard layout. I downloaded a regedit program and changed the entry for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\CurLang to 1031 as I did on my old touch pro 1. with the TP I could then just press FN + a/o/u to get an ä/ö/ü but now it doesnt seem to work. so I was wondering if I need to enter a different value for that registry entry or if its something else.
I am interested too in changing the keyboard layout, in order to have the FN key working with accented letters.
I don't have any clue on doing this, though...
I don´t have the rhodium yet but I recommend this great software keyboard (using it on my Touch HD):

Ok, I manage to change the keyboard layout back to the German layout.
1) first you need to set up this key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\CurLang to 1031
2) then you need to copy the file eT9.Rhodium.0407.kmap.txt to the windows directory (attached)
3) then you need to set up this key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\Ime\KeyboardLayouFiles\07FF to
eT9.Rhodium.0407.kmap.txt
4) reboot and that's it ... works fine on my TP2

Wow, Aurel143, the wiki page is just PRECISE!!!
My problem, though is that I cannot make a mapping match my hardware keyboard. It is a german one (me being Hungarian), so for example I cannot put accented ó on o, because ö is already there. You just can't remember 20 characters, if I maybe but ú on "-" or something.
But thank you, anyway.

I'm trying to figure out which one my TP2 is currently using as i just want to add one single keystroke "\"
Mine currently says:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\CurLan g to 1031
I wondered if there was a way of telling before I changed my registry.
I've looked into all the eT9.Rhodium.XXXX.kmap.txt files and none of them line up to either my SIP of hardware keyboard.
Can anyone post eT9.Rhodium.0419.kmap.txt? I don't have it on my Sprint TP2.
Thanks!

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.
