Hello guys, as described in the title, i've reworked the generic.kcm file to give an italian, french and greek generic layout for the keyboard.
Ampinto has ported the portuguese layout, so a big thank to him for his work
It's not 100% perfect, but work pretty good, tested on 3.1 acer rom, taboonay mod V.1.0.4.
I would say a big Thank to Salleq that was first to modify Generic.kcm for his language.
That need root access
the installation it's really simple:
1. With a root explorer, go into /system/usr/keychars
2. Make a backup copy of the file Generic.kcm
3. copy the new Generic_(language).kcm.txt into the mentioned directory
4. Rename Generic_(language).kcm.txt into Generic.kcm
5. Fix permission read / all, write / proprietary, exec / none.
! IMPORTANT !
I'm not responsible for any damage or problem occurred to your device!
I hope that will be usefull for someone

It probably will ;-)
Thanks.
I've updated the french layout and fixed two wrong keys on that, see first post.
Ciao Rhys! Do you think you could do a greek layout too? You can have a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyboard_layout#Greek for the letter map.
Thanks!
i've already see the greek layout, now, i have not time, but tomorrow i'll do the porting

Thanks for that, you are quick! I can't try the greek one immediately, as I am away from my desktop, but I will as soon as I can.
It would give you a lot of work to implement a Portuguese keyboard?
Many users would appreciate.
Thanks a lot.

Have you never heard of making backups of files BEFORE you modify them!?
I am sure they will now. You live and you learn!
Hello guys,
As i said, I tried to find the sound file with rootexplorer, but I failed.
Then I tried to find "roottools", it seems to be preinstalled in the rom, but i didn't find it.
At last i edited the /data/liberty/init.d.conf and change into "BootSound=0" , but it doesn't work.
Could you help me? Thanks a lot.
Sorry for bad english

Thank you. I have found that file , it's at /system/media/, and it is the only sound file in that floder. just rename it

Hi,
Please find attached the file for Azerty hardware keyboard (with € sign). It needs to be unzipped and then placed in system/usr/keychar folder using a root explorer. Replace the existing file and set the permissions to rw-r--r--. Then, reboot.
Hope it will help French users
And thanks a lot Megalith for porting this rom!
Thanks a lot, i have added link to your post on my thread to third post.

Could you tell us which rom you are running?
I think you could be interested in the solution from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901424
Or:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=798380
The first one illustrates how to add a font without manipulating your fallback fond. I don't know if this method can be used on the version of android you are running.
You can download the attatchment of the second post which is a font that should render good.
Just extract the file, copy it to your sd and use a Root Explorer of your choosing to first mount the /system as r/w, then copy it to /system/fonts/ replacing the previous one. Then you must change the permissions of that file to the same value as the other fonts (in most Explorers it's by long pressing the file and selecting pemissions). Then mount it back as r/o. Reboot and it should work.
It you want to use the method of the first link, just rename the fond of the second one to an appropriate name.
---------- Post added at 05:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:28 AM ----------
And if you want your whole rom to be in telugu, I can help you to translate all the strings and get them in CyanogenMod. (would be quite some work)
I also found this:
http://www.2shared.com/complete/qVvNjvis/Gautami.html
It's the default fond that comes with Windows.
The one I attatched is one from the ttf-indic-fonts package from Debian. Just rename the .txt to .ttf
Be carefull when replacing the fallback ttf with these two as they only give the specific characters.
Hi I'm using stock ROM ( I think ) , i didn't flash any other ROMs into my phone. I just rooted my phone with superone click. And i installed Gauthami.ttf which is a Telugu font. No problem in Firefox browser but the characters are not decoding in Google Translator and SMS. I'm getting only boxes.There is no fallback xml fies in /system/etc/ ( i tried with root explorer).
Edit: I replaced DroidSans.ttf with Gauthami.ttf but i didn't do with fallback.ttf.
