Hi, i've got the following Problem. I got a HTC Advantage x7500, 8gb version, updated with official ROM Win6.1 (German) and it works just fine.
However, when i use it with the docking station and use an external keyboard / mouse i have found no possible way anywhere on the net to have a swiss keyboard layout accepted by the Advantage. I've read my way through several forums, about 100 internet-pages, tried about seven different softwares, and nothing actually worked.
Does anyone of you have any idea how i could go about it to make the Advantage work with a swiss usb-keyboard? Can i do any remapping in the keyboard.dll? How would i have to go about that?
I'm grateful for any help you can give me.
thank you
René from Switzerland

I bought my XDA Mini s from eBay and it is branded O2. I use it on Cingular so I loaded the ROM found here Cingular_RUU_WIZARD_217_AKU2_WWE_CF2_A2DP.
Most everything works except;
1) Skype will not connect to GPRS or WiFi - it always thinks it is doconnected
2) Ade this is really strange. The characters that appear do not always match the ones printed on the keys when using the slide-down keyboard. Usually one character off.
I really NEED a fix for two - BAD. Please help
3) Wifi just will not connect to security-enabled AP's. it will connect to open AP's.
Yo, if you look closely at your Mini S and then at the K-jam and 8125, you will notice that the keys are not in the same placement. The mini S is either a UK (yes there's a difference) or a german keyboard. The others are US/worldwide versions. Go download registry editor on this site, its on the thread called "easy tweaking your wizard. On the second page of tweaks, it lets you choose keyboard versions. The correct one is Englisch (not a spelling error).
Keyboard solved
Thanks for the tip and thanks to the author of the treaking program.
I have decided to got back to the OS ROM because I cannot get Skype (which I use a lot) to run using the Cingular ROM.
Hey guys!
First I'd like to say, that this forum is awesome - never seen so much know-how on a forum before.
I got a problem with my SPV-M3000, that i bought in Poland with a QWERTY Keyboard layout. I've flashed a German Qtek 9100 Rom on it, but the layout got messed up. It's QWERTZ and not QWERTY and all the symbols (like @ or $) are not in the position they should be.
Well i've read a lot of threads with the keyboard-layout problem. Tried the registry-hack but it didn't work for me. Then I tried AEKMAP, but I don't know how to configure it - do I have to buy it? I've found a WWE *.AEK File on the website, but the layout is still messed up but in another way. Plz somone help me! It sux to write something with a false keyboard layout!
No one got a solution 4 my problem?
try this article you will need to find teh correct country code ms have it on there iste i have a uk model but need to use the US version to work

Hi,
I have a Kaiser (T-Mobile MDA III) with a German keyboard (QWERTZ) layout.
The Kaiser
Since I'm Dutch I changed to ROM to English and changed the keyboard to German layout via Start - Programs - Utilities- Device Config - Advenced Config - Keyboard.
But still when I press the "z" key the "y" is displayed.
What can be done about this?
I'm running L26_WM6 (HTC Kaiser WWE version_3) Kaiser has SPL running.
Is it also possible to switch hardware german keyboard against english one? And if yes where can they be bought?
Thanx

TRy Resco Keyboard or PCM Keyboard.
all those available cabs or reg strings doesnt work anymore. I think this issue has been somehow introduced with a newer OS bulit. I do have the same problem with my wizard hardware keyboard....

Hey everyone.
I know, that the last post was 2 years ago, but I've got huge problem with my HTC TyTN II. I reseted the device to manufacturer settings and after this action, I can't bring my hardware keyboard to be german again. My Kaiser is running on shifu_4.0 WWE ROM-Version (don't know, what it means, i've bought it like this) and this ROM is english. Before hard reset, i've installed this XDA_JCE... package and it worked just fine. Now I get the "Z" on the right place and "ß" is also available, but [FN] and SPACE are not working. I really type a lot on device and need hardware-keyboard with working Symbols. Do anyone know, how i deal with this problem.
Thanks a lot

Nothing works. I've tried every possible method with changing Registry, installing other cab's etc. The problem is, I always had Symbian before and don't really know, what I've got to do. Should I perhaps reinstall the ROM? Perhaps on the base of native german one? Do someone know a god one?
Thanks

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.

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!
