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 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..

After uninstalling arabic enabler software my today screen fonts changed to rectangles,is there any solution to have them back at normal font?
Strange that this happened after installing Arabic support.
Rectangles instead of letters mean the font files on your device do not have the correct language.
Try copying fonts from your desktop (windows\fonts) to windows folder on your phone. Then soft reset.
(First you should check what fonts (ttf files) are on there because you can not copy all fonts - not enough room)
backup your important data and hard reset
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.
I have been using Swype keyboard for some time and absolutely love it, but have been annoyed about it not having special letters such as used in Scandinavia.
Then Yesterday I fell over a similar keyboard called SlideIt and that works same way as Swype, it just have support for all European languages plus Arabic and Hebrew, plus you can make abbreviations and as a benefit to all those that don't use WM you can also get it for Android and Symbian.
Price is a reasonable 7.99 USD
You read about here: http://www.mobiletextinput.com/
U are scandiavian? Does the keyboard support ÆØÅ?
Yes, I'm Danish.
Yes, as I wrote then it supports all European languages, you download a language pack of your choice, mine was of course Danish and you can just download the Norwegian language pack and in options you choose the language you want as Primary and which one you want as secondary and voila you have all the special characters for Norway.
The only issue is when you have used Swype for some time is that the buttons are a little smaller, but that only takes a day to get used to.
ok, and it works when u flip the phone to the side?
Have to check out the videos on youtube before i decide...
But if anyone else have used this, i would like to know about the feedback..
Brilliant, abselutly brilliant....

SlideIT is the no.1 keyboard for my/the HD2. Far superior over Swype IMHO.

Thanks!!! Certainly the new version kicks the hell out of Swype.
Im Norwegian and have been using SwipeIT since the start. Works fine, but the only issue i have is that it does not work in landscape mode. The keyboard turns all white and the letters are not visible.
Think this is a know'n problem since i have heard some other reports on the same.

it is fixed in the new version, works like a charm
It is really a great keyboard! One issue I have is that it does not detect text selection in HTC Messaging application. I don't think the problem is with SlideIT since it works fine on another text application like Pocket Notepad, and also Swype does not detect selected text also... So probably a problem with HTC Messaging app text selection method...
Anyway it is a great input method and works very good!

Double tap selection never works in HTC Messaging. Long press/hold on the word brings up the editing menu. It's stupid, in my view.

Yeah, I know about the long press editing menu. but even if I select a word with the little pointers (or whatever that things are called) SlideIT does not detect it, so I cannot add/edit/remove that word to/from the SlideIT dictionary like the video here: http://www.mobiletextinput.com/Product/SlideIT/Corrections.php

Ah, yes. I guess that is why so many people are disabling HTC Messaging and using the WM default client. It's better in these areas, but it looks like crap.

Hi all!
Have just installed SlideIT and i think if i give it some time i will use it before the HD2 original one. But, is there some better looking skins for it? Or at least one with slightly bigger buttons?
Have googled it but i can't find anything that points me in any way that says that someone is making or are going make skins for it.
Can it be done?
In PDF User Manual, I read this:
"The user has the option to introduce a large number of new words into the dictionary rapidly or to even use a customized dictionary. To do this, create a file containing the new words on a PC and then move the file to the device. The user must open the file and select all of its content. Next, tap on the indicator ‘+’. The bulk update is then performed. Note that the maximum length of the selected text is 1000 characters."
But which kind of file I've to create, where I've to put it, and how can I access to it from the keyboard ?

Does this phone have arabic support in the browser and apps. And if it doesn't is there a way to add it?
anyone??? this is big deal breaker for me
Bump........
This phone is only in English. There is not even a Spanish option. Just wait for root and cyanogenmod. Apps though can use any font so you can type in whatever language you want and view text in anything you want as well as long as there are fonts for it.
there is a spanish setting in the keyboard section i think. i don't want the whole phone in arabic. i just need to read it in apps and the internet. they show as disconnected letters on the phone
Hardware keyboard makes "I" from "i" even if I turn off auto-capitalization in settings. Any Idea how to turn it off? In polish "i" means "and", and should be written as lower case.
That's possibly an auto correction feature or something like that.
Try to turn off any feature of those. Just a guess but hopefully a good one.
I turned off everything, even in softkeyboard, and problem still exists..
You can try removing those shortcut entries from the dictionary:
Code:
word=i,f=0,not_a_word=true
shortcut=I,f=whitelist
word=il,f=0,not_a_word=true
shortcut=I'll,f=whitelist
word=im,f=0,not_a_word=true
shortcut=I'm,f=whitelist
They reside inside the LatinIME application. It seems like shortcuts are handled even when auto correction is not requested, you might file a bug report for that.

I had no time so I just deleted LatinIME and rebooted for test. Problem is still present, even there is no softkeyboard. And I must to say this auto-capitalization happens only with hardkeyboard, when I'm writing with my screen "i" is always lower case.
I just tried to reproduce it but I failed.
I have set systemlanguage to english (US), also turned on the spell-checker and set the hardware-keyboard layout to Asanti-QWERTY and also english (US).
I have no idea what could cause that.
Maybe you share you configuration with us.

Stock 4.1.2
system language: English
physical keyboard: edited keypad_8960 (default) - I tried changing that to some non english ones with no success.
software keyboard: actually none - deleted LatinIME.
spell check, auto-replace, auto-capitalization, auto-punctuate - off
Don't know why I didn't check this before, but changing system language to Espanol solved problem, so this is some clue. Any ideas where to search now?
------------------------------------------------------------------------
ok, I changed language with MoreLocale 2 to Polish and everything is fine now. Just one more question: does anybody know what this app is exactly changing?
Well, it is the Stock ROM, of course I cannot reproduce it, I am on cm11.
MoreLocale changes not much, just a variable that refers to the language. Afaik it does not modify the ROM (/system).
It may work on Stock ROM. But please keep in mind that it is supposed to run in english/spanish. That means, that some things will either crash or just stay english.
I remember hardly that there were some things which let me let the Stock ROM running in english. Maybe it was just a mix of my chosen language and english.
So far everything is working fine, system is still full english, but this is not bothering me as I only wished for lower case "i".
I'm curious what this changed exactly, so in future I could change it manually without app.
Anyway, I'm fully pleased with this solution by now
