How to edit the unlock screen? - HTC Tornado

I've just noticed that the unlock screen clock doesn't work with some rom's if the language is changed to something else than what the cooker set as standard. E.g. if I'm using the WM6 HTC Edition with the US English lang., the clock is there. If I set the lang. to German (yes, installed all the localisation files I could find), the clock is not on the unlock screen.
I've found some registry settings for the clock under HKLM\Software\HTC\clock however, none of the settings there indicate more of a language dependance than as for the text what's written on the "Unlock" button.
I've searched quite a bit now but can't find out how to edit that unlock screen so the clock/date works for my/any language.
Can someone help me with that please? Thanks!

copy ClockControlPanel.dll.0409.mui to ClockControlPanel.dll.0407.mui (for german) . From \Windows
aditionally, you can translate the strings from that file into german with Resource Hacker.

Thank you for the answer DSF, unfortunatelly those .mui files are the wrong ones. ClockControlPanel.dll is the panel you can access through Settings-more-Unlock Screen Clock. That's the panel where you can enable/disable the clock. That file's already present and translated and removing/replacing it has no influence, the clock just won't appear in the unlock screen as long as german is the active language.

You have to add this to the registry:
HKLM\Software\HTC\clock\Lang0407\
Add a string parameter "Unlock" with your translation as a value.

That value is already there. Besides, the lack of button translation is NOT the issue. The problem is that if I set the phone to use the german localisation THERE IS NO CLOCK OR DATE on the unlock page.
If it's set to english, I can see the clock and date, if I set it to german, all there is is the "how to unlock" info and the "unlock" button.
But thanks anyway.

Maybe some HTC mui file is missing then. I made czech localization based on Vox files and unlock clock is working when using it (I just have to add that key to the registry - not necessary in the latest Andot's version as it was already included). There are three HTC mui files in Vox rom: HtcColdBoot.exe.XXXX.MUI, HTCMessage.exe.XXX.mui, HTCSettings.dll.XXXX.mui.

I've got all those HTC files for the german version. Checked them with Resource Hacker, none have anything to do with the clock (coldboot is something about configuration and reboot, settings is for the WLAN and message contains a few translated warning messages).
The idea aint too wrong though as that unlock screen clock seems to be an HTC feature (non htc wm phones lack it afaik).
Weirdest thing is that (iirc) I had the clock when using a manually german localized version of Andot's "WM6.for.C600.chs.eng.cleartype" rom. And I had used the same localisation files I use now.

tommorow i need to check something like that :
EDITED:
Still cannot make it work sad.gif
Be sure that HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9\XT9SupportMSSip has a value of 0 - if not, change it.
Change these two registry keys under:
HKLM\system\currentcontrolset\control\layouts\e 0010409:
Value of Ime File from \windows\xt9ime.dllto \windows\compime.dll
Value of Layout Text from XT9 IME to COMP IME
but maybe someone got any good solution for this problem? i really like the htc compact keyboard (double letter)
i tried:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=426281

Have you try this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=455769

How can I customize the ABC shortcut-line in "contacts"? (Blackstone)

In contacts on the right, there is a shortcut image with the ABC and by touching it, it shows you the letter you touch in big size right in the middle of the screen, and when you release it - you have the name who's started with that letter.
How can I customize it? I want to change the ABC to Hebrew letters.
I know i'll need to make an Image with the Hebrew ABC... but where I can change the fonts thing?
Thanks!

I suggest you download htc's "random access" and edit it..

I edited the file(s):
RandomAccess.dll
RandomAccessChooser.dll
with HEX editor, and it's show me the right Fonts in the files.
But when I was replacing my files with the ROM files, it's shows me strange fonts instead the normal Hebrew ABC...
I'm sure it's a problem with the fonts and not with the files itself because on my computer it's shows the rights letters.
How can i fix it? how can i send the files to the right Hebrew fonts? I'm using the Free Hebrew method
are you using the hebrew version of the arabizer we were working on in the Polaris section?
this has nothing to do with the current language support you have on your device.
fonts show on a device regardless of what the primary language used on the device is.
If hebrew fonts on your version of random access are chosen, and you have the same fonts in your device, you should be able to see hebrew.
the only problem i can think of that would make your device not show hebrew in random access is that the program defines the default fonts from inside the app itself.
that is, it has a specific font embedded into it, and that's what it shows.
if it reads a font from the operating system.. it should show fine.

I believe it's the second thing you said because I didn't found any other problem with Hebrew font's on my device.
Yes, i'm using the free Hebrew you worked on
So, do you have any Idea how to find the specific place inside the whole HEX thing that touching the fonts issue?
It's strange - I Can see Heb fonts in Contacts and even search contacts by using the Resco Keyboard with the Hebrew support, so i'm not sure it's the Contacts app fault.
Thanks for helping me, waiting for your answer
thnks
i used that information too thnks
unfortunately, embedded info is something which is hard to find for someone like me who's a megajunior developer.
in flash, for instance, you can see it directly in the Flash App itself... as embedded chars are defined manually.
i don't know how to look for embedded chars in other apps..

Keyboard layout, install additional dlls?

hello,
i know the keyboard layout problem has been discussed a few times already, and i know the solutions, but it seems like i need an additional dll / registry "hack" to get it to work. ive installed the Lite rom v1.4.5. by luca15thebig, it's an english rom with qwerty keyboard layout, but i'd need the german layout. so i've tried the hints given on other threads on wizard forum but they didnt change anything. so ive looked into the [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Layouts\] key in the registry, but theres only the layout code for US keyboard layout (*0409) theres only two entries with 0409 at the end but none like *0407. so, is there a cab / registry hack to get it back working? thanks in advance

alright, i fixed it just installed Schaps Advanced Config and set the keyboard layout right on the misc tab

Japanese regional settings, font and input

Based on the work of Asukal and Sven Groot I created a cab file for WWE devices.
The cab file will enable Japan in the regional settings, install a font and make the necessary registry settings to use them and installs the Japanese Input system Ooki from Sven Groot.
It corrects a small bug in Asukals cab file which messed up the keyboard if it was not a japanese one.
You can download the cab file and a Windows installation file from my website.
Greetings BG! I was just wondering, is there any way to get japanes input to work on a hardware keyboard? I've installed your cab to my Touch Pro 2 (Rhodium) and it works a treat, as I was led here by another post in the forums in the TP2 section.
I gave it a try but the japanese input did not work. It is listed but when I select and press ok the default touch input kicks in and does not save my japanese input selection. I another words, I coudn't get to select the Japanese input.
@oizumi
I found this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445550
It works for me and gives me a romaji ->hiragana/katakana/kanji input hardware keyboard as well as several other SIPs.

[Q] How to switch off spell check (xt9) on ChaCha

I'm using polish language on my chacha. When i write sms i see in notification bar information that xt9 En is enabled. So that everything i write in polish is underlined. I just hate it. Is there any possibility to remove that spell checking? or somehow use polish one? there is no configuration for this under menus i guess. Or I'm just serching in wrong one ;/
i'm on 1.52 with s-off and @fullbring_v2_eu
go to settings -> language & keyboard -> touch input -> hardware keyboard settings -> prediction (un-check this option)
Nah, i'm not talking about text prediction.
What i mean is that i have prediction off but english spellcheck is on underlining my polish words, as they don't exist in english dictionary. And under menu you mentioned, there is no option to disable it, or change dict language.
Yea, im having similar issue. Im using EU global rom.
Until today my language for typing messages was "Eng" (when you start typing message you will see small square on right side in notification bar, next to clock saying "Eng") and i was typing normally, without any issues.
Today i had OTA update of my ChaCha and my typing settings changed to "Eng xT9." Since im using Serbian language to type my messages it pointless to say that my every word gets underlined in red as incorrect word since it was not in english dictionary.
Its pretty much annoying to see your complete message underlined in red, and its lowering visibility of letters. Is there any way to disable "xt9" or change to normal "Eng?"
I found semi-solution. I installed Smart Keyboard from market and used it as default input method, and disabled all predictions spell corrections etc. it is not showing up with touch buttons and running in background so you can use your hardware keyboard as usuall.
hope it helped
I have the same problem, Azerty hardware keyboard and my language is installed in Dutch really annoying that every word is underlined!
so i have this problem too...i am coming from austria and we are using the htc chachas frequently for email checking and answering...
is there any solution now to solve this problem...i have also showing up the xt9 EN logo on the notification bar and i can't get away the red underline on each word.
i am using 1.54 with S-OFF
Can you guys perform a small check?
Set your phone's language to your country and start typing again. I have a hunch that xt9 is activated automatically by the ROM in the phone's language.

nope, already tried this...
switched from german (doesn't matter if i choose austrian, german or swiss version) to english and back again....
i think only in the original s-on country locked 1.18 version was a spellcheck for german, this was also the only version which hast the right qwertz keyboard.
now with cid 1111111 and original 1.54 there is no qwertz keyboard (even if i choose german language) and also no german spellcheck...
ok i can deactivate the dictionary funktion, but the spellcheck which underlines every word in red, i can't....
can you find out, which file does this spellcheck, so i just can delete it or do whatever it takes, to stop working.... i don't want a german spellcheck or a dictionary, i just want it to stop underlining f#####g words P
Is this available on the stock ROM?
Menu -> Settings -> Locale and text -> keypad -> XT9 [ ]
Tick XT9 for predictive text. Then go into XT9 advanced settings and fiddle about. There are tick boxes for Spell correction and so on.

nope... we only have to edit dictionary or to sync it , under keyboard settings (
no xt9 mentioned
I have the same problem
Alex, i don't have that section under settings..
running 1.52
HEUREKAAAA... i have the solution
it couldn't be easier...i am so dumb, really...!
to change the language of xt9 from EN to any other (in my case DE) just press FN + Spacebar to open a menu, where you an choose the XT9 language...
now i do not have anymore red underlines when i am typing an email or any other text in german...yihaaa!!!
update: now the dictionary is also in the right language...awesome-oooo
update2: for all those people who have keylayout problems after s-off and thinking this could ix it....it won't...this is for spellcheck and dictionary only...the keylayout files have to be edited by hand like we know it
OMG, and i pressed that combination so many times by mistake, but i exited it immediately. anyway, no help for me there, romanian not provided :lol

Exactly the same problem for me
xt9 came with the 1.52 update, and I didn't find how to disable it yet.
