Change hardware keyboard and SIP

I installed the rom in my sign as I wanted my phone in full English.
It works great.
I do however want the Swedish keyboard layout for hardware and SIP.
Do anyone have a suggestion on how to do it?
I have tried most of the things that is shown on the forum but none have worked so far. Some of the things I have tested are shown below.

Qrek 9100 keyboared US to SE in BRIGHTPHONE

I have installed S.I.V.'s BRIGHTPHONE rom (great thing btw, thanks!) and enjoy using it. One problem though is that I get the US keyboard instead of the Swedish 041D, which it originally came with. Typing with it is almost impossible finding the letters ä,ö,ü,å. I tried to find the Registry or file .....\keybd\Locale to change keyID, without success. Can not find Total Command inmy wizard either. Anyone who can help? All suggestions are welcome and highly appreciated!
Thanks!

There is a wiki page that deals specificaly with that. I have not had to change the keyboard locale... so I am not too familiar with that. Also BRIGHTPHONE does not have additional language file in it.
That rom is so old and so slow. you need to upgrade anyway.

Thanks siv
Ok, I just liked the functions and look but consider to upgrade to ANGEL. Thanks for your reply and THANKS for all your work with the ROMs. Good work.

Install the following link provided, it worked for me running stock HTC ROM WM6.1 Build 20764. Just to let you know this is the Offcial Chinese support from HTC
here you go

Note* after install reboot the device and u should find it working

My method is, first, install the necessary font. To do this, install CE-Star for WM5/6 trial version 2.8 R3c. It can support both Chinese and Japanese display. Chinese input will be disabled after trial expires but Chinese and Japanese display function never expires It needs to be installed through ActiveSync only.
For Chinese input, there are a few options, like 点讯http://www.dayhand.com/ or Sogou for WM. They are free software.

This site rocks...that cab worked perfectly on my touch pro (Energy ROM English)...thanks!

Chinese reading
I am using already some time the following CAB which installs Chinese Fonts on my HTC.
sunglobe.cab
fontpatch.cab
Tested it with stock, EnergyROM and TAEL rom, no problems.
Google for it, download it and there you go.

How about input?
Which one do you all recommend?

I use font support from Ricky mentioned above and IME only from 小熊工作室 here
http://www.studiokuma.com/wm/?section=mui

I'm using what that have stated in post #4 to enable Chinese characters viewing.
For input, I'm using ZTA4.
I'm able to send out Chinese characters sms'es.
But all the receiver receives is "???????" only, instead of desired Chinese characters.
This has been tested on Sony Ericsson phone as receiver phone.
What's the problem here?
The ROM I'm using is stated under my sig.
It worked on last version of TAEL ROM, but not this.

Hi all
I am glad that there is a post regarding Chinese display and input on English rom finally. I am a new comer for Windows mobile world. I managed to unlock my Touch Pro and able to install cooked rom. However, I always has problem for Chinese support.
Personally, I would like to stick with TEAL rom. However, after I installed the IME from 小熊工作室 on latest TEAL rom, the screen had been frozen.
Is it possible if anyone of you could share the experiences for installing Chinese support with TEAL rom? A step by step guide would be wonderful. Actually, I just need my Touch Pro with Traditional Chinese display and hand-writing input feature.
Sorry, I understand that it is beginner question. I did try to find the solution by myself, but obviously, I am not smart enough to get the job done. Please give me a hand.
Thank you very much in advance.

Did you install the full Chinese support from 小熊工作室 or IME only? The cab for IME only should have size only 1.6MB. I think I tried his font support on WM6.5 a while ago but didn't work out (can't remember what went wrong). I looked around and Ricky got the most beautiful font and fixed the Chinese word-wrap problem in Viigo when reading RSS news, so I stick with it.
Then I looked around for input support. All the IMEs I used before don't work under WM6.5 except CE-star, but it requires its own font support. Finally I re-visit 小熊工作室 and tried the IME-only cab, and it works.
Right now this is my favorite combination under WM6.5. I install Ricky's font support through UC during re-flashing, and install 小熊 IME afterward because the installation asks if I want to retain the word suggestion function in English IME. If you install it through UC, the customization will hang at the point the installation asking for your choice.
I'm not 100% positive, but I thought I tried this combination under TEAL's earlier build with no problem. I could be wrong...
Good luck.

Personally i m using 'najera--PlumSIP Pro VGA V6.1.0008.cab' for ime and 'SamauChinesePlus20080310.cab' for chinese support
They both worked perfectly, with any rom i tried. I've been using them since I got my touch pro in march this year.
U can use any chinese support package. as long as it works, there will be no difference, but I strongly recommend using this ime. It is so perfect with a nice skin.

According to 小熊工作室's site. The current version do not support WM 6.5.
Did anyone managed to use the above chinese input on WM 6.5?
Thanks!

Ooo.. so there's an IME-only cab? I can't seem to find it.
Can you post the link over here? Thanks in advance!

I am using his msje-ime cab. I only install 全螢幕輸入 and 注音 ime and it works fine on my Fuze with Energy ROM Akeo. (I think 注音 is required for 全螢幕輸入). It had been not working for couple of builds before, but it's working perfectly now. I haven't tried NRGZ28's new Energy ROM Leo but I think it will still work.

I am using Leies CE-Star Big5 System and IME Leies CE-Star Jianyi which also works perfectly on my Touch Pro with Energy ROM 6.5.
I like it that this IME support the Chinese JianYi (or call 速成) on the hardware keyboard

I got a suggestion over here.
Can the recommended working fonts & inputs being uploaded again directly by the one who suggested instead of asking people around here to google around?
Mediafire, RapidShare, and whatever you can think of.

I've been using 小熊工作室 IME only on the RRE WM6.5 ROMs, now the rRedux WM6.5 ROMs fine. But I'm using Ricky's font support because of the better looking font and working Chinese word-wrap in Viigo.

Here's the link

You have to check all checkboxes on the page, and uncheck the last checkbox again, then all the files will appear as a result of the javascript. The IME I'm using is the imeonly.cab.

Swype from 2.07 rom required

HI can anyone tell me where to get new skype from 2.07 rom ???
thanks in advance.

You won't find anyone with it here. The best solution is to simply flash to a ROM that has it.

I have so much data on phone can't backup all of it so dont wana change rom for time being........

Im not sure where to grab the version of swype that has been extracted from the 2.07 rom... i am trying to find it myself!
The swype cab created from the version ripped from the Samsung Omnia 2 is all over the web though... google should bring up a couple of places to download it from.
Does anyone know of any differences between the two versions?

You will have to search in the underground... Extracting the software and offering it as a cab is clearly not wanted by the creators and owners of the software. Offering links to warez is completely against xda rules.
The difference between the 2 might be some more language support, and that the HD2 version was made for HD2, as simple as that. I think it still might be an option to flash a ROM which carries it on board - or, at least, as long as this is tolerated.
Maybe in the close future, HTC will bring another ROM update which offers this great piece of software. Or, as stated otherwise, Swype might decide to make a retail offer at some time. If they do at a decent price, I believe they could do great business - as seen with other products, at unreasonably high prices, you won´t sell big, but at fair pricing, you can succeed.

I cannot find the new version anywhere!
If anyone has a link or would like to email it to me that would be very much appreciated!!

I had the same thing, only installed yesterday so didn't do much checking of the phone. Quite a few problem were caused by the T-Mobile version . Data connection is screwed and all email passwords needed to be reset and my Wifi password are also gone lol. Did some reading online as well and quite a few other people have experienced the same problems, some have even had to HARD RESET to get their phones working correctly, fortunetly for me just uninstalling the CAB and giving the phone a few minutes resolved my Data connection issues , will put back on the Omnia version and leave it at that for the time being.
So I advice using the newest version of Swype with EXTREME caution!!!!

I tried it after much hesitation... Had to do a new setup for all email accounts, data connection and wifi connection. But it seems to be fine now, I'll see in a few days if it stays like that.

I'm using SWYPE WVGA 3.9.10.10.5032 on my HD2 without any problems.

Had the same, but all I had to do was re-enter the passwords (and mail servers for gmail) and re-run the connection setup wizard. Now I'm fine and dandy and the software is nothing short of awesome... Supports Italian, German, French, English and Spanish; I tested all languages and it works fine

I'd say it is a crucial addition to the HD2, as I use it every day, and it makes my text input much less of a chore. It is particularly useful because of its multi-language support. I've never had any problems like those described, thankfully.

have you guys done any soft resets since the initial reset after installation? I also found the keyboard became slow to start after I played with the setting. the omnia 2 version is working better for me and with the htc skin looks awesome.

I can't believe no one else posted this...
If you overwrite the ModelID with the file provided, you are effectively telling your phone that you are now....a...tmobile hd2.
The swype keyboard has protection in it...only a tmobile hd2 will work with it.
hence why you need the modelid
now here is the kicker...
Say sprint - you run sprint tv. get an error. wanna know why? sprint asks "what phone" and your phone replies "tmobilehd2.
Same thing with prl updates...
I think you get the point...
when you overwrite the modelid, all exchange accounts - gone (sorta). Your 4 digit pin become a lockout - no pin will unlock it.
in short, bad things happen.
And this is why you always provision your phone before you set it up. part of provisioning is setting the modelid...
which is why people on mighty that forgot to provision before seting up exchange need that fix e-mails cab...
any questions?

@leepriestenator, if I don't use any provider software, I can install swype without any problem right ?

leepriestenator is correct. Thanks. As our phones are all unlock where we are, the problem is just resetting the mobile provider. It is working fine on my phone, though the phone identity is now T-mobile_Leo.
Having said that, it is a much improved version over the one in Samsung.

SMS Bug?- long time before i can type (only with swype)

i am using swype 3.9 (version 2 caused bugs with my camera but didnt have this bug)
i click on a message and go to reply, i am swyping all over the place but nothing appears about 10 seconds later i can type, i have the htc patch for sms and i have no lag at all if i used standard keyboard its only swype
any one got any solution?

I have same problem - more like 5 or 6 seconds for me. I have just learned to live with it as I like Swype so much I could not do without it. I would like to know if there is a fix for this (I am not a techie so really would not know what the conflict could be).
I am running Artemis Rom ver 6. (This is soooo good)!!!

Are you using conversation mode? Usually its caused by have multiple messages from one person and the phone is trying to load them all. Wanting a fix for this too. Switched back to traditional; mode for now..

Me too, same problem. Can anybody help?

you can actually start writing. everything I'm typing in the "unresponsive" time, is filled in correctly after a couple of seconds.

I would suggest it's due to the version of Swype you have installed and by the sounds of it, you have the T-Mobile one. I had the same slow response from it, reverting back to the old Omnia version corrected the issue.
However there is a modded version of the T-Mobile one available now (you'll have to search for it, as I believe it will get removed if I post it). Which is working fine and it doesn't require the devices model name to be changed in order to work correctly.

i have the same problem, but i do not have swype...
SO!
does anyone know where i can find swype?

Same for me

Got exactly the same problem, the more sms i have in a conversation .. the more i have to wait... near 15seconds for a 250 sms conversation... only in Swype, original keyboard do not have this behavior....
xavierdemon : Are tou sure ..? Cause i've tested the version without the devicexxx.txt file (don't remember the filename) .. and it crashed my phone. Do you have this swype and no problem to open big conversations ..?

Try this, it will trick the phone to load all messeges at ones, it's a little workaround until they fix the bug ...
When u enter the sms application to reply an sms press the menu once and then close it, now they should be all loaded....

I don't have any delay with Swype, but I did experience the same thing when I used the one extracted from T-mobile, it was very annoying indeed so that's why I installed a different version.
Honusnap what Rom are you using?

Same problem, but with SPB keyboard, I don't have swype.
So I suppose the conversation mode for SMS is responsible

Hi, I have the same problem, I think I got it when I uppgraded to v.1.43
Hans

same for me

Is this happening when you have a lot of messages in HTC Messaging?
There is a fix for that on the HTC Site (latest SMS update from end of january), also new ROMs don't have this problem anymore.

Ive had this with every keyboard i've used.
I learnt to live with it.
but it agree, its a pain in the ass.
And it only ever does it on sms'.

this is really bugging me also.

the htc fix fixes it for what seems every other keyboard

I use swype, I have this problem but didn't notice this till after loading 2.13 rom.

no new roms dont fix this problem its been around forever. best thing to do is get a non htc messaging rom or just disable it with the tweak
