Majority here seems using a Tilt , though plenty of us have a TyTn II with different keyboard layout and buttons.
(the fn -space/fn-wifi and fn-mydoc are placed differently)
The Tilt keyboard fix is not compliant in layout with the Tytn II and this fix is a must have for many using cooked ROM's from any great Chef here.
I am not geek enough to play around rebuilding the TILT keyboard fix to a Tytn II layout, so maybe someone here could do the community a favor?
Thanks upfront!
(And not not start bashing if I did missed the solution somewhere. )
ok.. so u understand that the keyboard layout is different on the tytn ii and the tilt.. WWE roms come with the tytn II layout.. so on tilt's the symbols would be messed up a bit, so the fix is needed to get the keyboards to the tilt layout.
Unless you flashed a AT&T rom, the keyboard should be natively layed out for your tytn II. IF you installed the titl keyboard fix then you have changed your layout to the tilt's...
If your having problems with your layout install schaps advanced config tool and you can easily change the layout to which ever one you desire.
i see from your sig that you are using alex's rom......didnt you see a tytn ii keyboard fix in alex's rom wiki?
I am using HTC TyTn II
Now I am using Dutty's WM6.1 rom
Fn + A should be "Tab" in my keyboard, but now it's _
Fn + S should be "_" , but now it's "
Is there any fix for this ?
You don't by any chance have the Arabic keyboard as seen here, do you? It's the only one on that page that has Fn + A = "Tab" and Fn + S = "_". Maybe you could try to change your keyboard layout to one of the Arabic layouts. Here are the instructions.

I have a Taiwan version that also has Fn + A = Tab
I use the TAB key so rarely that it's not a big issue for me.

No, and THAT is indeed the issue.... our chefs are either cooking Tilt or Tytn II Roms, though when you want to use a Tilt rom (as Alex V5.2) on a Tytn II, the keyboard settings become scrambled. vice-versa I guess also
So, a Tytn II keyboard fix, which can be used with a TILT ROM would be the solution for a lot of us.
Alex advised me to use the Tilt fix as there is no Tytn II keypboard fix made yet
I am putting 50 USD aside for the one who comes up with a TytnII keyboard fix cab.

If Dutty's 6.1 is made for a Tilt, you just wait for the same fix as some of us need
did you check the wiki they have a tilt fix and at tytn fix

I first thought that this was indeed the solution... though in vain..
EDIT: Tested the Tytn II keyboard fix for ATT roms as identified on the Wiki by sd73ta , though the keyboard settings are still wrongly linked. I do not see a difference between the TytnII and Tilt keyboard fix anyway?
So, good advice, but still not solved
ONE and ONLY solution = Reg setting change !
Thanks to a helpfull member, the solution is as follows:
To fix this problem I needed to change the registry value of HKLM>HARDWARE>DEVICEMAP>KEYBD>CWSLayout from 1 to 0
+ soft reset
As such, a TytnII correct keyboard mapping works with a Tilt based ROM !!!
Case closed
Advice to include this in the WIKI?

Still having one problem: they layout works 99% fine. Just one big loss, the Fn+Space key combination doesn't toggle through different characters as it is supposed to do (i.e, from a to á,à,...) based on what is in the sym.0409.txt file in \Windows. Big issue for those of us who use accents.
There has to be a different layout for this one... Any ideas?

I have the same problem with a new Dutty Rom. Is there a solution for this problem in the meantime?

try to look for a symbolpad cab and see if there are some registry stuff you need to put in.
also...this thread sounds like it should belong in the other forum.
Hello,
there is already a symbolpad in Duttys Rom. I also tried to install a symbolpad again but i had no luck. There are still no accents letter with Space + FN.

For those who still has the "FN + Space for accents" Problem, the solution can be found in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=394857, post #9 (by Macsek).
This issue happens because XT9 is enabled, so, the only thing you have to do in order to get symbols back by pressing <FN> + <Space> is the following:
"
...
With XT9 Enabled I Had:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Layouts\e0010409]
"Ime File"="\windows\eT9Ime.dll"
"Layout Text"="eT9 IME"
With XT9 Disabled I Now Have:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Layouts\e0010409]
"Ime File"="\windows\compime.dll"
"Layout Text"="COMP IME"
*The last 3 digits of the registry key (ie 409) may vary depending on the language code used.
...".
I just bought a Samsung Epix. I love it. But coming from WM 6 Classic (Smartphone), I am very much missing the one-handed input speed that t9 allows. I have been searching long and far for a good tool that works well on a square screen, and the best I could come up with - TouchPal - isn't very usable on this device. I don't think the built-in skin works properly at 320 x 320. Or it's just too complicated for my needs. I want something more lightweight - something nearly as simple as xT9 for WM 6 Classic like on my Tornado.
Are there any tools that put a 6.1 Pro device into "t9" mode so I can use the number keys and have full works auto-suggested for me? It's very hard to use a full QWERTY with one hand!
If nothing exists, I'll probably write my own SIP. I know HTC Touch Pad does *not* work with a keyboard device (it just acts bizarre!), so that's a no go.
Help!
hi guys,
I have a strange problem with using this skin for Resco Keyboard Pro:
http://www.resco.net/forums/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=18945
The keys are laid down on the screen properly, but the letters
are not. They are not properly positioned on the keys
There is a micro group of letters located in the upper left corner
of the keyboard !!!
I installed the WQVGA version of this skin on my Topaz
with WM 6.5 original HTC upgraded (from 6.1 to 6.5) ROM.
Could you help me somehow ???
Any hints would be great !!
Sorry I am not being of much help for your immediate issue... but I tried fingerkeyboard 2.1 and its much better than Resco's offering... I used to use that too with the same skin (but not on this rom). Keyboard / button layout is almost similar and I like how you can map buttons/shortcuts...
guys i have a touch diamond 2, which doesn't have a physical keyboard and 6.5 windows mobile running on it. htc removed the default MS keyboard altogether from this rom and now i don't have special keys like tab (i like programming in python, and tab is very necessary for that language), ctrl (for multiple file selection) and alt.
i've searched google and came up with nothing. i really like the htc onscreen keyboard but what do i do when i need special keys?
