Hi all ...
we need some (maybe a lot) help from programmers to try to remap the hard keyboard keys from mda3.
As many guys know, we are a lot that we buy the mda3 with german hard keyboard layout... and now that we all have an english os, we must remap the key and symbols.
Any idea will be appreciated, we have all files from german os an english os.
Nobody want to broke the keyboard to glue the buttons in other place...
Nobody now how and where can order another english keyboard and replace it phisically.
Remain two thinks:
1. find the file with the layout and remap the symbols via hex edit
2. recompile a new layout (and here may be usefull for future progs)
All idea wiil be apreciated, all guru's invited
Please help us ... we can not take advantage of the new hard keyboard in this mode.
Thanks all before and...
COURAGE FOR ALL NEW POSTS THAT MUST BE UPDATED(POSTED) !!!

Actually, keys and numbers are fine. It's punctuation that is almost impossible to use unless you have a good memory
From what I remember of the old thread that got wasted, a few things were looked at but it seems harder than it should. You would think one or two files transferred from the PDA2K to the MDA III, like a keyboard dll and a mapping data file, would do the trick but, as usual with engineers, they made it harder than it should.
I can suggest another way for this remapping: just writing a kind of program lookind for keypressings and substitute them with another keystrokes.
I've already done it for Russian keyboard (project home page is http://ae.inc.ru/bahrus.html , but it is Russian only). Current state is "beta".
I can do some key remappings this way. But I need to know which of the keys should be replaced with which one. Or replacement table may be simply saved in config.
I'll do a tabel with the replaced hex value ...
You need only the xex value for this or need more ?
Thanks a lot
Denis
Let's try (before find all remapping simbol) to remap only the two letters z and y.
Symbolic constant Value (Hex) keyboard equivalent
VK_Y 59 Y key
VK_Z 5A Z key
like ... if '59' then '5A' and viceversa...
If we can remap this two letters, we can remap all we want.
Thanks a lot
Denis

Ok, I decided to implement more general solution for this problem and develop customizable hardware key-remapping software. This application wil allow to remap not only BlueAngel built-in keyboard but almost any hardware keybord connected to wince (some of my friends use Luch or Flexis external keyboards with PDA).
Hope first beta version will appear next week.
thank you!, sure i'll be back with more questions though!
Fantastic!
I'm excited about this

Wow, that's great news. (exactly what I wanted to hear!) Keep up the good work. (you rock)
AEKMap is available at http://ae.inc.ru/aekmap.html
To make "remapping" you need:
- install the program;
- run Start - Programs - AEKMap Settings and choose "AZERTY MDAIII with English ROM" in first combo box
- set three other optional layouts to "unassigned" and/or unassign "switch" key.
If you want to create specific layout, you may start with editing one of the existing. Use \Program Files\AEKMap\AEKMapScan.exe to define keyboard pseudo-scan codes.
To find unicode character codes use Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> Character Map on your desktop
This program may be closed with popup menu on system tray (lower-right corner of today screen).
And I'm definitly sure that some bugs are in this utility now. Let me know if you find them
Also send me with your layouts to be published on site (will appear in a days)
P.S.: AEKMapper may be used to remap almost any external or built-in hardware keyboard recognized by system.
AWESOME!
Thanks for doing this. If i understand correctly, what's needed now to get the German MDA III keyboard mapped correctly, following the imate english rom installation, is to:
use AEKmapscan.exe to identify all the keys that need remapping
then look up the correct unicode characters for the desired keymapping
enter them into a .AEK file and put into the Program Files/AEKMap directory on the MDA III.
If i get some free time today, that's what I'll do. If anybody beats me to it, please post!
thanks again, AE!
So here is a mostly working layout file for the MDAIII German. The only thing that seems to be not working is the semicolon/colon key just to the right of the space bar. that key seems to have no shifted mode, according to aekmapscan.exe
also: if aekmapscan.exe is running, this appears to stop the keyboard from working at all in applications. it needs to be stopped entirely.
Thanks again for this great tool!
It is always nice to know your job is needful to someone
As for the problem with semicolon: changing CapsLock/Shift processing flags should help:
HookShift 1
HookCapsLock 1
Probably I'll find a better solution for this later, but now I can't...
Official project home page will be available at http://ae.inc.ru/aekmap.html
thanks for the tool, works great. Can you add an option to not have the mapping name on the bottom, i.e. DenisJ Layout? It covers up the wireless icon that I use to turn Wifi on & off.
thanks again for the app
you already can turn it off. that's the "hint" option in the settings.
A parts from thanks the great job from AE, i wan't to try to ask a question:
In the registry there's a part...
HKCU/Keyboard Layout that have a profile value..
Could it be usefull..
My German Mda3 have... preload/1 set to e0010409.
Can anyone post the english Pda2K value...
Rups..
Bug report
AEKMap works quite well, thanks to the developer!
But...
I noticed that, when AEKMap is on, you can´t adjust sound/volume levels from the external button on the left side of the screen. Is that a bug or a feature? :roll:
Second thing is that if you switch the AEKMap off, you can switch it on only by softreset. Is that ment to be?
Can anyone confirm those features, or is it just in my MDAIII?
-Jigi
Sorry guys but i just arive from my fisrt (this year) snowboard weekend
AE many many thanks from me and (as can you see) from all other guys with the same german mda3...
I just tryed some days ago to begin something like this using EVC++ 4.0 ... but it's too much to study for an as400 programmer
This will be surrely in my startup programs for a log live time of my mda3...
Surelly we will ask you some options in future ...
Another lot of thanks

All keyboard layouts are hardcoded in keypad.dll.
Look any any hex editor at offset 0x1d8c0 (in current version of this dll, but can be easily found in newer released - see screenshot).
It contains national characters in unicode (like russian ones), FN+ combinations, etc.
Now you can map keys the way you like.
Hi! Does anybody know how to remap keys in english layout the way you like (for example, dvorak layout?) Also I would like to change some FN+key to my very own. I know there is AEKMap software, but I'm curiuos is it possible to make it editing some files (dll or configuration or registry) and flashing them with ROM (or just overwriting in \windows folder). The first and simplest task to start with I would like to remap FN+Q to print @ symbol (instead of !), and FN+W to print ! symbol (instead of @). Who knows how to do that?
p.s.: and what cwslayout=1 registry key is actually for? i've googled for "CWSLayout" and found nothing but links to our forum
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD]
"CurLang"=dword:0000040c
"CWSLayout"=dword:00000000
this is for french vesion, so "CurLang"=dword:00000409 is for english, and "CurLang"=dword:00000804 is for CHS, OK, change it to what ever you want.
i'm not talking about layouts... I'm talking about mappings. imagine i want to make a dvorak mappings for wm. this is what i need to do... imagine i've opened my device, and changed all keys in hardware- so instead of qwertyuiop you will see poiuytrewq for example. and want WM also print correct characters as i made in my new hardware keyboard...

I also have dutty's rom which is in English, but my Kaiser hardware was bought in HK, meaning the original OS was in Traditional Chinese. Whenever I type Fn+S, do not print _ , but print " , i want to fix it so that i type Fn+S Kaiser can print _, just like the keyboard shows.

im gonna take a stab at it and CWS probably stands for Cingular WirelesS... Even though its now att the CID is still CWS
SO, if you dont have an ATT tilt, then i would suggest either setting that string to 0, or deleting it!
I think that I have the same problem.
I am completly new to this, and I appreciate any help.
I live and work in China, and I just bought an HTC TYTN II (it is the Taiwan version) and some of the keys are different from my friend's Vodafone 1615. I am trying to figure out how to flash the phone into English, and it seems that when I will do that, that some of the keys will not do what is printed on the key itself. Can anyone tell me what to do? Is there a specific English Rom flash for my phone, or will I need to learn how to re-map the keys after I flash it to English, or should I just take the phone back (My phone is still brand new.) and trade it for the Vodafone 1615? I like the look of this TYTN II that I picked out better, but if I am going to have to put up with keys which don't match correctly, then I prefer to just trade it for the Vodafone.
Thanks for any help.
but it's just solved the problem of "FN+Q to print ! ...". I got FN+Q to print @ since I set CWSLayout to 0.

I had a similar problem, just that FN+Q would print @ and not ! even though ! was what was printed on the keyboard.
i didnt find a CWSLayout string so i made one and set it to 1 and now it finally shows up on the screen just like how its printed on the keyboard.

Hi, bringing up the old post, but it might shade some light for others with similar issues:
I have a QWERTY layout, but it appears that although "Y" was in its place - some of the "Fn+" characters were not:
Q W E R T Y
@ ! ? / # 1
As I see from the posts above - you guys has "!" mapped to "Q".
Now - on my Kaiser, although with English layout, the Function + characters are mapped differently. And you have the paramenter CWS set as 1?
I had it also, and I mistyped most of my Fn+ characters (Fn+Q = ! instead of = @ and so on...).
(thanks to you and these posts) I set CWSLayout=0, and did a soft reset.
Now - I have an @ in place of Q and all the other characters mapped according to my hardware keyboard.
Once again - thanks.
p.s. - I just wanted to "elaborate" a bit more for the guys with this issue so it could be more clear...
With my TyTN = Hermes and WM6.0 the autosuggestion of words seems much better than the Raphaels (at least in the hardware keybord stance).
Can someone explain why that is or if I have haven´t understood the utility or something else right?
With TyTN it basically suggests 4 alternatives in a diagonal way, it can be one word or SEVERAL words in a row, depending on what I´we written before. And you choose from them with the upp and down arrow keys. Simple and quick.
With Raphael it suggests several ONLY singular words horisontally, and if it´s not in the dictionary it automatically chooses another word than the one you´we just written (!?). Slow and awkward.
Also - who is behind this solution? Windows Mobile 6.1 or is it HTC Raphaels unique solution?
Thanks in advance
/Danne
Anybody have an opinion or information on this matter?
At least the system is a part of WM6.1 or if it´s Raphaels unique solution? Because I´m thinking about buying a Kaiser with WM6.1 instead and wonder if it has the same solution.
Sorry, no additional info, but I'm in the same boat so to speak.
I find it completely useless, specially since I don't always use English in my SMS messages, and I found that it becomes a nightmare if it doesn't find a match and then forces my word to something it thinks it should be.
What I cannot understand is that under Settings-Personal-Input-Word Completion - I have DISABLED it, but it still friking tries to complete my words, even in keyboard mode???
Do you know of another place to disable this dastardly excuse of a feature?
HAH!
Found it! If you want to disable it completely, the do the following:
1) make sure you disable it under settings - all settings - personal - Word Completion.
2) When you open a new message, bring up the virtual keyboard and look for the button that reads "ABC T9" - it has a toggle on the button, make sure it is on "ABC" and NOT T9 -voila!
Now I can SMS again!
I´m glad I was not the only one being irritated about this. But at least it´s possible to turn it off, so thanks for posting the solution Piie
I actually returned my TP because of this and severeal other reasons but I´m thinking about buying it again or some other WM6.1 phone. So do you know if your solution to turn if of works with Word Mobile documents as well?
And still, if somebody knows if it´s part of Raphael or WM6.1, please let me know.
Agreed 100% on the uselessness of word completion feature on the TP. On mine, the T9 feature actually slows the sms application so much as to make it completely unusable. This is probably my biggest complaint with this device.
Yip, following the steps as posted also removes the predictive text completely for Word ( and all other apps I have used so far)...
Thanks piie
I believe its part of the TP keyboard (SIP) not WM6.1 , when i had my kaiser with wm6.1 this "IRRITATING" issue was not there, but when i installed the diamond keyboard on my kaiser, this thing came out...... now its part of the TP because of its keyboard.......... so its HTC
I was getting annoyed with the behavior described in posts 1 and 2, disableds the whole thing too (I had an Excalibur before and it seemed to work far better on this particular aspect).
However, I decided to give the TP's T9 another shot and started changing it's configurations and finally got rid of the annoiance related: when on a text field, bring up the T9 options by pressing "Fn" + "Space", select "T9" settings and on the screen that appears uncheck the "Spell Correction" and "Auto-substitution" boxes.
Now I'm using the word prediction (T9) again just like I used in my old device, tipying much faster! (specially because I commonly write in portuguese and my keyboard is the UK one...).
Hope this helps you guys.
Cheers.
Sweet!
So you can still have predictive text, but remove the actual "irritant" of it overriding your word if it doesn't match it's dictionery - seems like that is the answer to your problem Danne?
For me - I really don't care for ANY kind of prediction - most often than not, even in English, the suggestions are maybe 30% usefull if that...
Great!
Yes, this is solution and now I know it´s part of Raphael/Diamond and not WM6.1!
Still, the Hermes WM6-solution with prediction of several words based on what you previously have written seems better. But I am happy with this!
I guess that´s the last words for me in this discussion.
Thanks guys!
just wondering how to disable word completion without installing htc ezinput, because at input settings by disabling it, doesn't work at all.
here's everything you need to know on how to get back to the old style autocorrect and change your dictionaries: http://www.fuzemobility.com/?p=1527
That however breaks your hardware keyboard
sym key will stop working and you can't get pound and euro sign using FN key....

I have the Verizon version of the HTC Touch (VX6900). I have tried many keyboards including Zoomboard, HTC Diamond keyboard, Spb Full Screen Keyboard, PCM Keyboard, etc.
Can you suggest a keyboard that "learns" frequent words that you type and suggests them in the future so you can just hit the space bar to type out the word for you? For me I use the same words a lot and I would really benefit from that.
I know there are keyboards that suggest a word as you're typing it like if you start typing "thi" it will show you "thing" or something like that. I actually want a keyboard that will learn words that I type frequently and will suggest that word in future context.
For example if I type "I love that game", the next time I type "I", it will suggest "love" for my next word, then "that" after, etc. Before I updated to Windows Mobile 6.1, my keyboard actually used to do this, and I don't know which one installed that triggered this.
If I would type a word that I typed in the past then it would show the next word that I typed in the past next to it in a shadow color and I would just be able to hit the space bar to autocomplete that word. Does anybody know which keyboard that is? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Resco Keyboard - Touchpal 3.0
It will suggest words if you want and you can turn it off. It also allows you to change the format from one with multiple letters on one key to one letter per key.
Pretty good software.

Thanks for the reply but unfortunately I have tried both of those and they don't do what I am looking for. I am looking for a keyboard that will not only suggest words but will learn words and sequences of words that I've used in the past.
Before I updated to Windows Mobile 6.1 it was doing this. I have a feeling it was from a keyboard that I installed but I can't identify which one it was.
For example, let's say I sent a text message to a friend that said "Dude, did you see that Chargers game on Sunday?". Then if I forgot to send it to another friend I can start a new text message and as soon as I type "Dude", it will suggest "did" as my next word, then "you" as the next word after that, then "see" after that and so forth. The next word in line would show up as shadowed grey text and I would just keep pressing the space bar to add those words to my text message automatically.
Does this sound familiar to anyone? Thanks!
Touchpal does this, you can even set the priority of new words it learns. Best SIP IMO.

Hmm, it still isn't doing what I want it to do unless I'm doing something wrong. Any other suggestions? Thanks!
It was installing the extra keyboards which removed this feature. I use block recognizer, and before I tried out a load of different SIP's, WM6.1 did this. I seem to recall that WM5 and WM6 did as well.
The TouchPAL DOES do that I dont know whats wrong with your phone. It is absolutely everything anyone would want or need in a keyboard IMO lol
I think what you asked is just the standard function from the simplest default microsoft keyboard comes with the original OS. Maybe you need to enable & customize it on Start >> Settings >> Personal >> Input.
By the way, the 'Gesture' function is another very useful character of the default ms keyboard. The gesture is used in this way: You need to silde your stylus, starting from the key you want and ending at the nabourgh key. Example: Slide stylus from s to w key, it will come up with capital S, s to a = backspace, s to d = space, s to x = enter, while only tap on s is just an letter s. Very useful function.
Edit: Please also refer to this thread:

I have swype it works great but i want to use it now with texting... but its english anyone know how to make swype dutch? i read something about the dutch dictionary in swype via the sms program but i coudnt find the right lexicon.txt... anyone help pls?

SlideIT has already 14 language packs : Czech, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Hebrew, Hungarian, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish and Swedish.
You can download it here: Download SlideIT
thx for ur help but i know swype is in dutch language pack and i want it and not slide it i think its a laggier program
EDIT: Cant i put the dutch language pack from slide it in Swype>? it is just a txt file right so it should bbe possible
Not even one dutch men around here who has the dutch version of swype>?
voor zover ik weet is swype er op dit moment alleen nog maar in Engels en Spaans.
As far as i know, at the moment only English and Spanish are available for Swype.
Nope, sorry, i was wrong...look at this:

well this program is not really for sale, they sold it for some samsung phones and they are patners with Verizon (if i'm correct). So maybe thats why there are so des supported languages. But you can also putthe language in a mail and add in that way.
oops my browser buggs with the edit button >.< Opera beta sucks
i tired to open the txt file in word and my phone crashed XD and is u swype 123 fast at&t will appear as word on screen so i think its partners with at&t...
But u sure it will work if i put it all in a mail?
Because i dont mind having english words aswell because i surf in english on the web so i can have both this way?
No connect your phone to your computer with active sync and mymobiler (so you can control your mobile via windows) --> open de txt file in windows (xp, vista, 7)! --> Then copy some lines to your email (you need to create new email) --> use the swype key and w8 a while. And repeat the entire process
This will take a lot of time, but will be worth in the end. Al though I don't use swype any more .
That sounds like alot of work indeed... i dont have that much time... well ye ill just wait for someone to edit the cab and add the dutch dictionary....
But if one person just copy and paste those words in swype then he can upload the dictionary file from his phone to XDA so we can replace it with ours and we have dutch Swype! But someone with alot of TIME has todo it then...
has no one done this?

I'd really like a dutch dictionary for swype. I just used it for about 5 minutes in English and I'm really astonished by the capabilities of the product. Its hella faster than me typing
Since using the extracted version of Swype is considered a violation of copyrights I decided to try SlideIT. There is a demo version and this one is looking good so far. For only $15 i think I'lll go for this one! Not to forget that SlideIT does have language support.
I've been using SlideIT for a few days now, but it is not as good as swype (not even close!). You get a lot of mistypes, and it just doesn't work as fluently as swype.
I'm gonna try the email add method, see if that works .
The only problem i think that it will give is that you'll have both english and dutch as suggested words...

Yes it does give both as a suggestion, but as you use the dutch words more and more often it remember which words you prefer so if you swype often it'll work just fine.
What I did was split the dutch words into multiple small text files, then I open these text files with the explorer and edit > select all > touch the swype button, wait for like 30 seconds and you get an entire list saying words added to the dictionary, let me save you a little trouble a long the way here are the dutch text files I used I'd say it's around 8000 words or even more! Aprox 800 per files and some contain 1500 words. Now not every word is in here yet because it takes quite some time splitting it into a lot of different files but I'll sure continue splitting soon.
Also if words have already been added for example you added hallo doei goedemiddag or something like that and one of my text files contains these words aswell, they will not be added because it scans if the word is already in the dictionary or not, so no need to worry about duplicates.
Well after that load of text here are my .txt files containing lots of dutch words you can open each single files and just do this:
Menu > Edit (Bewerken) > Select All (Alles Selecteren) > Press the swype button to open the keyboard > Press the swype button in the lower left corner (linker onderin).
After waiting a while it should say words added giving you a list of the added words, now not all the words that have been added fit on the screen but all the words in the .txt file will have been added !

Yes it does give both as a suggestion, but as you use the dutch words more and more often it remember which words you prefer so if you swype often it'll work just fine.
