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

thats what i did did not work, i guess i'd need the kbdde.dll or whatever it is called (is kbdus.dll in qwerty layout)
alright, i fixed it just installed Schaps Advanced Config and set the keyboard layout right on the misc tab

Hi,
Just flashed to ASERG's AKU3.3 rom. Everything runs great. Had some issues with the russian default settings. But I fixed most of them.
Does anyone know how to uninstall the russian keyboard? it gets listed as "Keyboard [RU]"
And I don't mean hiding the option with the registry, but actually uninstalling the drivers/dlls
Thanks,
copy the cpl file to \Windows
Start - Settings - System - Pocket Tweak - Input Panel
cancle the "Keyboard [RU]" choose
that ptweak utililty is basically doing the same thing as editing the registry to "hide" the russian keyboard. I was hoping someone (maybe ASERG himself??) could describe how to remove the russian keyboard all together including files and registry keys.
Thanks,

I think the only way would be to use the OS.NB from the aserg rom, dump it using Molski tools, remove the russian kb dll & entries in system.hv and cook.
lemme know if u want a step by step proc..
Ahh.. that makes sense.. the files are pre-installed on the ROM? I thought the KB was installed via extrom somehow...
doh!...
thanks for the offer... If I had some free time, i'd take you up on the step-by-step instructions, but for now, I'm cool.. I'll live with the reg hack... =)
I have a german Kaiser so on the hardware keyboard it is laid out QWERTZ
However when I type the Z is still mapped to Y.
I know I found a fix for this before but after 20 minutes of searching I can not find it.
Any ideas?
I found it my self
in HKLM\local_Machine\devicemap\keydb
change Curlang to 407 or whatever your language code is
Thanks for all your suggestions
come on guys
somebody most know.

Solution! German Keyboard / "Umlaute" (Fn+Space) working with english 6.1 !!!
Ok guys and girls,
the title may sound like i know what I'm doing, but I'm a noob to all of this after all. Still I managed to get the "Umlaut"-function (Fn + Space) working on an english 6.1 ROM. The ROM running my German TYTN II is L26_KaiserDiamond_V9.
Ok, so here's what I did:
1. set Keyboard layout to "German" in AdvancedConfig
2. changed value of registry key HKLM\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\CurLang from 409 to 407
3. installed XDA_JCEspi2005_German_Input_Kaiser.cab (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=345426)
4. copied the file "sym.0409.txt" (located in DEVICE \Windows), renamed the copy to "sym.0407.txt"
et voilá!
I guess step 4 is what did the trick... even though I still can't believe that the solution was this simple. Someone else give it a try... maybe on a different ROM. Would be cool if this was the definitive solution.
greetings,
cartonneexpress
Yes but it is also important to disable XT9 with KaiserTweak or AdvancedConfig. Otherwise the Fn + Space dose not work for me.
thank your very much,
works perfect for me, too

Hi,
does not work with my ROM (3.28.405.0 WWE) with WM6.1 Prof.
I have still the QWERTY keyboard.

Notice: For me this only works with the Hardware keyboard (L26_KaiserDiamond_V9). If someone knows a method to change the software keyboard (Windows Default) it would be very nice.

after 2 softresets it works also for me, but also only the hardware keyboard. for the software keyboard i take pcmkeyboard.
You can also try those 2 in combination, works and is a little bit easier ;-)

as I stated, this reactivates the "Fn+Space"-Umlaute on your keyboard.
no idea why one would think that this has any affect on the softkeyboard... but here's the suprising solution for you: install a german softkeyboard! i'm sure you'll find one on xda-devs.

Oh i searched a little while for it but i did not found any useful.
For the hardware keyboard have you tried to change the value of registry key HKLM/HARDWARE/DEVICEMAP/KEYBD/CurLang from 409 to 407
And then HKCU/MUI/CurLang 409 changed to 407 (Hexadecimal).
Then softreset and after that install XDA_JCEspi2005_German_Input_Kaiser.cab
And then softreset again.
In some roms i could not find one of the registry keys but then it was enough to change the other.

then give this one a try. As many different KB layouts as you could wish for, including national characters (although only 2 at a time, switch-able by a key next to R-ALt). @ the mo, I'm using Polish and Norwegian.
NO, I'm not affiliate, just a happy user.
Ah yes, it's NOT free, but at 9.99 PLN (or 2.99 €) anyone can afford it.
And YES, it IS skinnable.
DL a trial version, give it a shot, see for yourself.
With me I can now type fn + space but the Y is a Z and vice versa
What else can I do than reading and searching ?

Easyest way to do this:
With a Registry Editor, search and edit the key to the following value:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD]
"CurLang"=dword:00020407
Or download patch below...

The patch doesn't work for me, changed nothing :hmm:
What did the trick was
Regedit [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD]
"CurLang"=dword:00020409 to 00020407 for German, other language see here
Install Jespis German/language cab http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1673274&postcount=2
Result is qwertz and after vocale Fn+Space = "Umlaut" + German dictionary

Hi there
any one got solution for working htc keyboard?
Ive installed files from xda, (main keyboards, language pack)
but after instalation only normal keyboard is working quite ok , in others (including samsung ones) i can only het numbers.
I was trying to make something with it, but failed (i ve made hard reset and installed it on a "clean" system but it was the same)
I was trying polish lang pack (changing ezinput.dll.mui.0409 to .mui.0415 etc) searchung in registry etc,, but nothing changed, i am fighting with it 3hours wright now smile.gif
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
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=392197
and the result is the same. think that it is a problem with polish language on omnia or something like that (people with 0409 got this keyb workig, i with 0415 got problems , still dont now why it is thesame for all keyboards even samsungs ones
Have you try this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=455769
that was only cab that I could install and had no problems with just numbers typing
Aloha!
Looking through a lot of threads for quite some time but cannot find a hack to switch the hardware keyboard mapping from qwerty to azerty.
The WM 6.1 method doens't seem to work for WM6.5...any ideas?
Thanks a whole lot!!
You tried this?:
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYB\CurLang
changing this value ?
azerty is french so propably there should be 1036

Thanks, but that is the WM 6.1 method I think.
There is no such key in my "WM 6.5 by MEDKIT" rom installation.
If I create it and fill in the value still same qwerty mapping.
All help welcome!
you can still use jcespi2005's cabs for wm6.5.....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=345426
if you don't have your language, install azerty one:

and change settings to match your language

Yepp that works fine on 6.5 roms. I used it to switch Joshs 6.5 rom from qwerty to qwertz.
Weird! I tried both:
XDA_JCEspi2005_French_Input_Kaiser.cab and XDA_JCEspi2005_Dutch_Input_Kaiser.cab but my hardware keyboard mapping didn't change at all.
My ROM is MedKit's WM 6.5 rom...
This same method did work on my previous roms though (WM 6.1 and below).
What 6.5 ROM do you people (who succesfully switched hardware keyboard mapping) use?
Maybe I'm going to try another ROM or so.
Thanks a lot for the replies btw!
I used in on medkits and joshs.
First you have to change the 2 reg keys -> softreset -> install cab -> softreset

The 2 reg keys? Wich ones?
I only know of the CurLang change but in the medkit rom I even had to add a Curlang variable if I wanted to change it.
And which of those 2 ROMs do you prefer? Haven't tried the one from Josh yet but maybe I should.
Vielen dank!
HKCU\MUI\CurLang
HKLM\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\CurLang
It seems to be important to enter decimal values. NOT hex values.
After changing those two keys, softresetting and installing the cab resulting in another softreset I get my qwertz keyboard layout.
And you should really try Joshs rom. Build 21193 is so muich faster than previous ones

Thanks a lot for the info!
Just tried Joshs 21193 and it is indeed very fast.
But since I noticed there's even an 21198 by Anryl I'm flashing again to check that rom's speed. Once I start installing my crap I won't feel like flashing another rom for a few weeks so better make sure to try to have the best rom now.
21198 also is quite fast so sticking to that one. Changed the to reg values which I could find in this rom as opposed to the medit rom I tried yesterday and changing them did fix my hardware keyboard to azerty.
Thanks again for the info and have a nice day!!
