does somebody here know how to tweak the registry to make the T9 input of Asus P525 default to 'Abc' instead of 'T9 English' ?
and also, how to make the T9 as default SIP after a soft reset instead of the keyboard?
bumping up
In the download area of Asus there's a small tool that sounds like it does something like that. Sadly direct links aren't possible. You can find it by pressing "Download" in the upper menu of www.asus.com, selecting PDA/PDA/P525 + press Search, then click on "Utilities". Now there's a "T9 Disable and Enable Utility".
I haven't checked it myself yet...
btw: Do NOT install the firmware update that's on the same page, unless you've got or want a french device...

Don't now the registry entry right now, but you can always activate the T9 input by pressing the * key for some seconds.
i know the T9 Disable tool you're talking about and I know how to activate it. but right after activating the T9, you still have 4 options:
T9 English - predictive text input for English language
123 - for entering numbers
Symbols - for entering symbols
Abc - for entering words other than English.
whenever i'm going to type something, like SMS or notes, the T9 always defaults to T9 English. what i want is for it to default to Abc.
i hope somebody here can help me find the registry entry for this.
thanks in advance.
hi boybi,
did u managed to find out how to do it? let me know if you already have the answer. thanks.

Nope, still haven't figured out how.
i found a reg tweak here:

haven't tried it yet...
Since lot of users can have some problems, i created how to change xt9 language. some can find this quite usefull
you don`t need to install any other files, it is just a little bit of reg editing
1. you must check value here
\HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9\DefaultLanguage
for wwe rom it should be hex 0109 (dec 259) (it depends on your rom)
2.find here your default hex number (should be 0109 for wwe)
\HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9\LdbFiles\
in this directory are keys with string value like XXIsUN_xt9.ldb
for wwe at 0109 it is supposed to be ENIsUN_xt9.ldb (it depends on your rom)
change first two letters by language you want (warning, this codes can be assigned bad, i am guessing it from alpha2, pm me, if you have different opinion):
AR - Argentina
CS - Czech Republic
DA - Denmark
DE - Germany
EL - Greece
ES - Spain
FI - Finland
FR - France
HU - Hungaria
IT - Italy
NL - Netherlands
NO - Norway
PL - Poland
PT - Portugal
RO - Rumunia
RU - russia
SK - Slovakia
SV - Sweden
TR - Turkey
soft reset device, and it should work. feedback appreciated.
Thanks, didn't know. I can add no reset is needed, and the number in defaultlanguage is decimal value of the preffered language (definition is in hex).
Now the libraries without diacritical marks would be useful
Hi, I'm trying to do this for Turkish. I used:
HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9\Ldbfiles\11F = TRlsUN_xt9.ldb
I can see Turkish in the language list but the selection does not change when I click on it. It works for other languages though. Any ideas why?
hi, pls how can i do this?

i tried it with registry editor but i miss the last 2 values.
It is neccessary to write it there or i have bad vs? i have rom 43 not 48, because i dont know, where can i download it.
thx bro SR me too O2, me too.
Is it only a matter of reg edit? No aditional files needed? I'm looking for portuguese T9. Some cabs for other devices dont seem to work on Leo.
Anyone solved this one?

I followed your steps. In addition to that I added 0816 to the ...et9\availablelanguage, so as to have an additional entry on language selection, then soft reset the device.
Portuguese doesn't appear on the list, just "unknown". Keyboard layout on compact QWERTY changes to Portuguese layout but predictive test remains English.
Windows folder does have the PTIsUN_xt9.ldb. Any thoughts?
point is, that value, where is linked your language file at dir LdbFiles must be set in DefaultLanguage, and must be into availablelanguage... check your defaultlanguage value... be sure you are writing it in HEX
I did! They all match. I was using a Portuguese XT9 for Niki. It seemed to work fine, only some times strange stuff happens like only numbers will be written instead of the letters on a single quick press. I've seen on other topics some additional reg changes. I'm now wondering if it is possible to change to any language from any rom since some files could be missing in WWE, not allowing me to apply you steps to get Portuguese.
How about other languages, that are not on this list ???
It works for Romanian. But the dictionary its not that rich so its kind of useless.

Hi! I've got the Portuguese cab and I can confirm that the word prediction works, BUT only for compact QUERTY and Phone Keypad. For the Full QUERTY, it really mess the keys.
Well... it's much better than nothing. I think it's half of a full solution.

National Lithuanian for standart HD2 keyboard (Ezinput) Full QWERTY Layout.
Cursor keys swaped (up, right etc..)
Cursor keys moved to left side of the keyboard
Vibro reduced to 1
National keys added (long press).
TAB key instead of XT9
Click volume reduced
No more need for FingerKeyboard or other if you do not demand much from the keyboard
Unistallable, so you can easily revert to original.
Haven't tested without policy disabled (unasigned apps). Perhaps you need to set this option with BsB Tweaks to install the cab.
v2.3 Landscape cursor keys on left side.
v3.1 Landscape cursor keys location something like on fingerkeyboard

It's not a problem to make better english version!!! If someone needs it is possible Just ask.
What I did - everything exept "national keys" are useful for everyone- lowered vibro, lowered sound, space moved to right, cursor key placed in first row. It is more comfortable for me.
I do not understand what the guys who made keyb were thinking about - in original layout space not reachable with right thumb, vibro too strong sound to loud - in 10 mins that things become anoying
And whats funny if i rotate screen 270 degrees - keyboard rotates also - but the keys that pop on press a not rotated, I mean they stay as on 90 degrees rotation layout ha ha ha
Why I'm telling that- on HD2 default layout would be more comfortable using 270 but not 90 as is .... Strange why cursor keys are on right side because that position is more comfortable to be on left..on 90 Try...
Is there anybody who can help/give me information about that damn HTC keyboard. I have some ideas but still didn't find out how to do (eg. how to make space of bigger width - where is the png that is used for space button ?)
Thanks in advance.
linuxis,
it's nice to see your work.
I'd like to know how did you make it, because I'd like to make something similar but I'd like to experiment a little ... and probably make a full Bulgarian layout.
What's required to accomplish this?
Updated to version 2.3 - cursor keys moved to left
I would be cool if you could make a keyboard with easy access to "æ, ø, å" for us danish users... I would seriously call you my god if you could pull that off

If you have a tool look inside the cab. Basically these files are modified.
0C09.xml
0D09.xml
1C00.xml
LQ_Bg.png
LQ_Bg_Inv.png
PQ_Bg.png
PQ_Bg_Inv.png
LQSym_Bg.png
LQSym_Bg_Inv.png
All layout is in xml files, they inside has links to the images.
By the images you can say what layout they represend.
LQ - Landscape
PQ - portrait
LQSym - numeric keyboard layout
xxx.xml xxx - code of the language you modify.
xml structure is very simple, just layout tag/ page tag (several pages eg in numeric layout)/ key tags with coordinates. You can find key by key ID, and change the key or the values on long key press.
I think that is enough to start.

I just need to know what symbols shoud be placed where and what layout is the best for the danish symbols because I do not know danish . I mean - first row-long press (like lithuanian layout) or "æ" on "a" longpress ? And the symbols also needed.

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.

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

[Q] The single&double quote key on the dock not working? -and a bit on accented chars
Yesterday I did a factory reset on my TF700 (JB 4.1.1). Today I was typing and found that the single/double quote key was not working on my dock keyboard. My settings where Asus Dutch Keyboard. When I switch to Asus English Keyboard or the Android Dutch or English keyboard the key is working. When I use the screen keyboard with the Asus Dutch keyboard setting I can also type a ".
So it is only when I use the dock keyboard that it is not working. Maybe somebody can shed some light on the issue?
Another question on the docking keyboard. Is there a way to type symbol like ê or ë etc on the docking keyboard?
Edit:
Both issues have been fixed in the 10.4.4.23 firmware update. The double quote key is working again and a accented character can be typed for instance by typing a ["] and an [e] in sequence. Unfortunately this is not working when typing in a browser. But in the email app it is working.

Well, you found out the issue yourself: it is dependent on the type of underlying ASUS keyboard you choose. Well-known by now, to be honest, but your issue is right there.

Couldn't find it on the forum that's why I raised the question. Probably my bad search skills Thanx for answering. Now it's waiting for Asus to fix this.
Eh? It worked in .18.. I specifically remember the @ and " keys being fixed in it.. Dafuq Asus?
Why not just use the US keyboard? All keyboards in the Netherlands have been the US QWERTY keyboard since well before the turn of the millenium. The old original Dutch keyboard became redundant decades ago.
(I don't think we've ever used it to begin with. We're too busy running after the US.. Which for once i'm glad for, as the original NL keyboard was crap.)

The Asus Dutch Keyboard is not the keyboard you are refering to. Which is in fact ancient and I only saw one back in the 90s. The ASUS Dutch Keyboard used to be the same as the Asus English (US) keyboard except the input language is set to Dutch so it does Dutch spelling check. But you got me thinking because the keyboard I use it listed as ASUS Dutch (Holland) keyboard. Maybe it should be ASUS Dutch (US) keyboard.
But I don't know how to change this setting. Anybody can help out?
Ah. I always thought the spellcheck was related to the system language? Since you set Spell checker under Language, and not Keyboard & Input. (Suggestive typing drove me to near insanity, so I turned it off...) (I only type in English and my system language is set to UK English, so I never noticed whether the spellcheck is related to the keyboard or not.)
There used to be a Holland and US variant... Where the hell did that go? (I can't find it either.)
Yes, I think the spell check language is the system language (by default, and I have found no other way to change it). Accented letters have never worked for me on this device, although others did report that on the German language default, they actually had them working. Now I think of this, I tried setting the tab's language to "Deutsch (Deutschland)" and indeed, I have accented letters! They do not correspond to the keys, however, so you're going to have a hard time typing this way. For example, the " ' " key gives an "ä".

Sorry I've to disagree on the spell checking being reliant on system language only. I've configured my system language as English and set the Spell Checker setting to ᷰ'Use system language' . Then when I go to the mail program and choose 'Asus English (US) keyboard' spell checking is in English. But when I change to 'Asus Dutch (Holland) Keyboard', spell checking is in Dutch.

Well, no matter what my selected keyboard is, if I select German as the system language I get the accented letters. *That* *was* your question, right? I can't remember you talking about the spell check, so it is not that relevant. You wanted accented letters, now you get them but you cannot type. In other words: soft keyboard for you, if need be.
EDIT: deep in the settings there turns out to be an option to bind the spell checker to a specific language, or system default. AFAIK, it shouldn't change when you simply select another keyboard when on the system default language option, but then it would not exactly be the first time that ASUS-injected stuff does funky things.

My original question was on the quote key not working when selecting Asus Dutch AND on international characters. The spell checking was introduced when ShadowLea was wondering why I wanted to use the Asus Dutch keyboard. I know I can set the language to German for accented characters but like you said totally unusable when using the dock keyboard. But I can live with the accented characters not working. But the quote key not working is a big pain in the ass. Like I said before I wait for Asus to fix this.

Hey, no offence meant. OT: the funny thing is that on CleanROM the quote/double qoute key is working fine for me (English/US system language). Have you tweaked anything else on your device?
EDIT: I do sometimes run into the accented letter issue, and then I am very annoyed. Trying to type something like "fiancée" or "René" causes me headaches every time. I have given it some thought just printing the ASCII code list.

No offence taken. I have a stock Tf700, no tweaking yet. And on a stock rom the quote key is also working on Asus English keyboard/US system language. It's when I switch to Asus Dutch Keyboard it stops working and just inserts a space when pressed. I read on another forum what people using the Asus Potugese keyboard run into the same problems. So I guess there are more input languages that suffer the same problem.
Printing the Ascii list ... back to the days of word perfect
The workaround I found is pressing the little keyboard icon next to the docking icon in the notification bar. And then turn Physical Keyboard off. Doing this one can use the docking keyboard and the screen keyboard at the same time. So whenever I have to press a double/single quote or a accented character I use the screen keyboard. And it also enables me to switch back and forth input languages using the globe key on the screen keyboard (lower left side of the screen).

Yeah, it's like a time machine. Only far worse.

Albeit at the cost of screen real estate, this does seem like a viable workaround for now. Thanks for sharing.
Ah, the Ascii list... I still have one hanging on the wall behind my monitor, just for nostalgia's sake. (and lazyness, can't be bothered to go to 'edit, insert, symbol, scroll list...' just to get º. )

It does come in handy sometimes. That being said, even the ASCII list doesn't work on the dock keyboard, so I'm SOL for now.
I updated the title of the thread so it better covers the content.
Well, for the accented characters you can use AltGR (right alt, but on the dock the only alt) + any of the letters:
ä = q
å = w
á = a
é - e
ü = y
ú = u
í = i
ó = o
ö = p
Sadly, this misses the ë. (Which really is the most accented letter in Dutch. -.- And probably the most hated in schools.)
Well, I just stumbled onto the ALT+SPACA shortcut. That might even be a saving grace for ZoldarVL. WT.... I guess I'm still not through with learning how to operate this thing.
@ShadowLea: the shortcuts you gave above are for the German lay-out, I presume? (They do not work on the English lay-out, obviously, since they never use these accented letters. How sad.)

Asus Dutch (Holland) Keyboard layout. The éáóúí work on the UK setting, none work on the US setting. (There's a boatload more signs under the dutch altgr combo, these are just the accented keys. Altgr+shift give even more)
And yes, the Alt+Space gives a symbol menu. Did I not mention that? Bugger, I thought I did...

Also the ï is missing. Probably the second most accented letter in Dutch.
I'll try the solutions you guys provided and report back. Much abbliged.
