Keyboard layout issue for T-Mobile 3G Dash - Dash 3G, Snap General

Hi,
i upgrade my T-Mobile 3G Dash with the ROM (8-23-2009 HTC Snap Asia/Europe (Unbranded) ROM 1.19.707.2)
for Chinese language support. it can display Chinese properly.
but i got a problem for the keyboard:
as HTC snap has different keyboard layout as T-Mobile for numbers and symbols...
so it won't properly output the numbers, etc.
i don't know how to fix it.
is it anyway that i can change the layout? or somebody can help to make a Chinese ROM for T-Mobile Dash 3G?
Many thanks!

fix for keyboard layout issue
Hey there,
I faced the same problem with the latest Asian Rom (6.5) and it turned out all it needed was to overwrite the keymap, .txt, (search for it in this forum) file under /Windows. Use total commander to avoid access permission errors. That, however, does not solve the issue with the input method. The default IME is A4 and is based on the key layout of a snap. Guess we'll have to wait till HTC or someone proficient at coding to incorporate the correct key map into that IME.
Hope the above helps.

How to generate Swedish characters with keyboard

I’ve been using an Ipaq hx2750 for over a year now, but feel a huge need of having a keyboard. Strongly considering the Wizard (the Qtek or K-Jam), I’m interested in finding out more about the ability to customize the keyboard layout to support Swedish characters (å, ä and ö).
Surfing to www.myqtek.com and choosing Swedish, brought me to the insight, that there is a Swedish version of the device. This means both Swedish keyboard and ditto OS. Since I’d prefer my OS in English, I wonder whether it is possible to change the normal WWE version’s keyboard mapping to match the picture found on this web site (which is the Swedish version of the device).
I’ve read about this keyboard mapper, but need to get confirmed that it can be done.
If it is possible to generate the mentioned Swedish characters on a “native” WWE Wizard's keyboard (without any patches or remapping), it would also be of interest and enough info for me to buy the English version.
On www.myqtek.com, I also found the following file, which was supposed the remap the keyboard to Swedish in case a hard reset was done on a device (however, this might only relate to units with the Swedish OS). The file is located here http://www.myqtek.com/downloadFile....dic_keyboard_1102.sa.cab&node=5040&media=5037.
If someone has a “clean unit” and don’t mind doing a Hard Reset to retrieve the English keyboard setting, I’m very interested in finding out whether the patch generates a Swedish keyboard map on an English unit as well.
I’ve spent quite a few hours scanning this forum on the mentioned issue, but without being able to narrow it down just to the keyboard remapping (most posters are interested in altering the whole ROM into another language as well).
Thanks in advance for any suggestions or comments!
Best regards,
Bateman
I cant answer directly to your question, but in finland there is few shops, which are selling qtek 9100 wwe with swedish keyboard. Its little bit more expensive than wweOS/wwe keyb (something like 10-15euros).
Other product which you should look is Skandinavisk tastatur

Thanks for the reply! The suggsted link changes the soft keyboard into Swedish. Additionally to change the slide-out keyboard's layout into Swedish, simply run the small program found on www.myqtek.se. The small application can be removed like any other program through "Remove programs" in Start->Settings.
I now have a WWE Qtek9100 with Swedish layout on the hardware keyboard.

Support for East Asian Languages (Japanese) On Mogul?

I am curious as to whether or not it is possible to get support for east Asian languages on the mogul. Every time i try to go to a japanese website or something of that sort all of the text shows up as [][][][][] <-- Squares
What would be even cooler is if you could use a Virtual IME Keyboard on the mogul to input text of a different language on the mogul. If that is too much, then just how do I make my mogul able to read japanese font?

(x)T9 + Japanese

Hello all,
Lately I have been having a little trouble with my device. I want to use HTC's Touch xT9 for easy access touch screen T9 input for English language, but if I do that it will disable my Japanese language input ability altogether. I need to be able to input Japanese language on my device because I am a Japanese. The problem, I have found, is that the HTC software has it's own dll file for IME, and if you use any other IME (like the Microsoft IME 3.1 J for Japanese) it will not be able to shift into xT9 mode and be limited to QWERTY keyboard mode. I hope you understand what I am saying. Anyway, if anyone has any experience with this or another issue where 2 IME software conflicts and have any idea how to correct this situation, please let me know. I will be greatly appreciative of you if you can. Thanks in advance!

looking for WM6.0 JAP IME file or other way for japanese input

Hail all here first.I'm new to join the X1 family(Traditional chinese rom version).
I'm very satisfied about X1 until now,the last thing I wish to do is install a native microsoft japanese IME on it.Because install the chinese IME and japanese IME at same thime will get serious program conflict,and I don't wish to use 3rd party ime like CEStar...
Since I used to use chinese and japanese IME at the same time in my XP desktop, so I really wish to have this to be done on my X1...then it is really perfect.
So...anyone have a PURE japanese IME cab to use for it?I don't need font(chinese version rom can show japanese correctly) and other input method,only the files needed for japanese input method.I heard that change the default SIP to english can avoid the conflict of 2 IME,is this correct?Or anyone know any better way to disslove this problem,please tell me how to do.Thanks!
You can find the ime on this link http://hn801.hkes.com/Data/blog/WM5_IME.htm
Please tell me if you succeed installing on the Xperia.
I would like to know why you don't want Ce-star?
I am thinking about buying an xperia and want to use it as a jissho, but I don't know if it is possible.
Strob, maybe my solution applies to you...
I have a HTC Gene WM6 running an EPWING dic viewer, and it works wonderfully! I effectively search (in my japanese classes, almost everyday) through 1gb of dictionaries, most of then found freely in the web. I don't know if it will work on Xperia, but it will, probably. I also use JWPce for text editing from the time that I didn't have the proper IME. Try it!
JWPce: http://www.physics.ucla.edu/~grosenth/c_main.html#PPC

You can PM me to further explanations ;D
Good luck!
I have the CAB. file working with my X1. No problems whatsoever. I send emails a lot to my sister-in-law in Japan. Let me know if you want this file or not...Alohas for now.
I'd like this file, DoubleVision19.

AE Keyboard Mapper not working on HD2! (desperately needed for bluetooth keyboard)

Hi folks,
for the last few hours I have been trying use AE Keyboard Mapper to adjust a Freedom Universal bluetooth keyboard (German QWERTZ-layout) to my new HTC HD2's (original German ROM) obviously English driver.
Previously, this procedure worked perfectly for the combination of my old HTC Touch Dual and the afore-mentioned keyboard. Unluckily, if I use AE Keyboard Mapper 1.3 to switch, e.g., Y and Z on the HD2 both keys end up dead.
Is there anyone who got AE Keyboard Mapper working on his HTC HD2? Is there another application out there which does the same job?
Thank you in advance!
You need version 1.3.
Also, HTC apparently does something with sense that breaks AEKMap, so you should try changing sip (keyboard software). mine works when I'm using the Eyron (Hebrew\English) sip, but with the HTC sip the leo ignores any press of remapped keys..
Ohg, and don't let the site confuse you - it's still freeware
http://ae.inc.ru/aekmapdownload.php
Nearly forgot, I only ever tested it on 1.61...
Thank you for the quick response! I'm already using version 1.3 so that shouldn't be the problem. But as you described, the HTC Leo simply ignores any remapped key.
Could you please go into more detail relating the Eyron solution? I just visited their consumer website but my Hewbrew is a little rusty... ;-)
Is there some English third-party software to achieve the same thing?
No ill will towards them, but their site isn't much good because they only offer a 7 or 14 week demo of the software itself. I played around with AEK in the meanwhile and it works on Topix 1.1.1 rom (based on 1.61 if I'm not mistaken) with Finger Keyboard, which in itself is one of the finest freeware I ever used.
I suspect HTC circumvented some of the input routines upon which AEKMap relies for injecting the altered keys. Try it with Finger Keyboard 2.1. If it won't work I'd suggest installing a free Arab or Hebrew Lang extender. It just has to be there to make the device "unstreamline" what HTC did.
Thank you for your support! Your hint was exactly what was needed as I installed TouchPal in the meantime and now AE Keyboard Mapper works like a charm!
Has anyone used AE Keyboard Mapper to get the extra/special functions of the igo stowaway keyboard to work?
Hi,
I installed TouchPal and FingerKeyb, incl. the hebrew driver. Still can't get the stowaway keyboard work with AEK. Remapped keys simply are ignored. How exactly did you make it work with either TouchPal or FingerKeyboard?
If I get it working, I will try to remap the complete stowaway keyboard and publish the driver.
Thanks!
which version of Think Outside Keyboard do you have, English Layout?
Hello,
I am trying to make AEKMap work on my HD2 (installed the brand new ROM, 3.14)
I have the same problem as mentionned above: all remapped keys are ignored.
I tried to install FingerKeybore, TouchPal and even NullKeyboard, still doesn't work
Does someone have an other workaround? Is it because of the new ROM?
Also, as Dirty Harry mentions, the layout of the external keyboard is not the same as the HTC keyboard: AZERTY VS QWERTY !
Maybe there is a way to find the config file for the QWERTY and modify it?
Thanks in advance if you have any lead!
sorry i'm late to help you!
i had the same problem.
i found a solution today that is working for me:
i modified a file for my german qwertz freedom universal keyboard 2, then i changed the hd2 sip (softwareinput/screenkeyboard) to anything else, but not the standard-finger-input-softkeyboard from htc, because it seems to cause that mapping problem!
a tip: you still can use a good sip-keyboard parallel in use of the bluetooth keyboard. i use fingerkb instead. totally free and also available in many languages!
and don't forget to modify the aekmap files by yourself to work with your keyboard!
i will attach my keyboard config for the german qwertz freedom universal keyboard 2 (hid-mode) - tested on german windows-mobile 6.5 rom.
known problems: this keys are not working and also not recognized by the aekmapscan.exe:
<>| = opens start-menu - i tried to map this keys but then i can not use the hd2 win-key, because it's writing a "<" when pressing, so i deactivated it!
alt gr is not working (no characters like @€{[]}\~ etc)
fn key is not working (maybe only with the escape-key)
start-key is not working, use the <>| key instead
i hope i could help someone in the future!
