Dear All,
I have a English Dodop 818 pro (HTC prophet). I have set my machine "Regional settings" to "English (United States) as Hong Kong is not available on the list. However I found this setting will turn on the autoformating for the phone number on the contact list to (xxx) xxx-xxxx which is not suitable to where i live.
I just wonder if there anyway to make a new entry to the Regional setting and/or there are any reg edit to turn off the autoformating? Thanks.
Elton
you can do like what i did and change the settings to english (australia) i would love to know how to do an autoconfig hack as well though.
well , my work around is to change the setting to UK instead of USA. But then it is only a work around.
I have seen a lot asking how to change the XT9 dictionary to a language not listed. After having a hard time finding a solution myself i decided to write this guide.
If you are using a ROM with another language than the language you want your XT9 dictionary to be and that dictionary language isn't in the XT9 language menu, don't worry. All you need to do is adding a few things in the registry.
First go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\
Open the key:
AvailableLanguages
In this you will see a Value like:
0109,010C,0107,0110,010A
These are the langues (you currently) can choose between. Add the language you want to use, ex. danish is 0106:
0106,0109,010C,0107,0110,010A
Here's a list of most of the dictionary codes (sorry i don't know all of them, if anyone got a complete list be free to reply with a link or the list and i'll add it):
0101 = Arabic
0105 = Czech
0106 = Danish
0107 = German
0108 = Greek
0109 = English
010A = Spanish
010B = Finnish
010C = French
0110 = Italian
0113 = Dutch
0114 = Norwegian
0115 = Polish
0116 = Portuguese
010e = Hungarian
0118 = Romanian
0119 = Russian
011B = Slovak
011D = Swedish
011F = Turkish
Unknown = Serbian
Next go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\LdbFiles\
Add a new string value with the name of the language you want to add (ex 0106 for danish). Then in value add the filename of the dictionary you want to link the language to. Here's a list of the dictionaries in the WWE 1.61 ROM (my guess of languages in parentesis):
ARlsUN_xt9.ldb (Arabic)
CSlsUN_xt9.ldb (Serbian)
DAlsUN.ldb (Danish)
DElsUN_xt9.ldb (German)
ELlsUN_xt9.ldb (Greek)
ENlbUN_xt9s.ldb (English)
ESlsUN.ldb (Spanish)
FIlsUN.ldb (Finnish)
FRlsUN_xt9s.ldb (French)
HUlsUN_xt9.ldb (Hungarian)
ITlsUN.ldb (Italian)
NLlsUN_xt9.ldb (Dutch)
NOlsUN.ldb (Norwegian)
PLlsUN_xt9.ldb (Polish)
PTlsUN_xt9.ldb (Portuguese)
ROlsUN_xt9.ldb (Romanian)
RUlsUN_xt9.ldb (Russian)
SKlsUN_xt9.ldb (Slovak)
SVlsUN.ldb (Swedish)
TRlsUN_xt9.ldb (Turkish)
After adding the value, soft reset your phone and you can now choose the language you added in the XT9 menu.
Should you still experience minor problems, like freezes, slow dictionary, etc., try this. Go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\Sip\LanguageKeyBoardIDMapping
Take the dictionary code you just added, and replace the FIRST 2 digits with 09. For example if you added 0106, you change that to 0906. Now add a new string value, name it the original code, ex. 0106 and as value you input the 09 value, ex. 0906 (Thanks to bel_z_bub).
26/03/10 - Added the missing dictionary codes!
hi,
is there any ways to add entries to the dictionary? I cant find the eT9MyWords.exe anywhere..
Very good tip. Working for Romanian.
Thank you!

You should have eT9MyWords.exe in the Windows folder. At least mine is there.

Glad it's working
how do I dissable he xT9?? I dont really using it in my language.. coz my finger keeps on accidentaly pressing xT9 and ABC
Hungarian language code for xt9: 010e
Romanian 0118
I already posted something like that here guess I should have made a topic about it..
but it kept crashing/not working sometimes (well, three times total since) and after some more searching I think you also must add a value to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\Sip\LanguageKeyBoardIDMapping
for Dutch I added a new string value named 0113 with a value of 0913
just take the last two numbers/letters of your languages code and put 09 in front of it..
there might be more that need to be changed.. I'm still testing this change as I just found out..
SK is Slovak (not slovakian )

The error you describe on the other post happened on mine with original ROM as well without changing XT9, so far i haven't experienced it after instaling WWE ROM and changing it to Danish XT9 dictionary.
Should i experience it, then as i say it's just like with the original ROM, it's not a sideeffect of doing this.
From the name of the folder you listed above, i guess that just for using other keyboardmappings, with different languages. Unless you have another alphabet (not ABC) i guess it's not needed to add.

From the keys in that folder listed above, you might guess windows is missing a value when you change languages as all the original languages are there. Seems like it's only logical to add your new values there as well don't you think? The same keyboardmapping or not, windows apparently needs a value when you change languages. Why would all the values be different if it's the same mapping?
The crashes occured when I changed language from dutch to english and back to dutch again when typing. And after a night of hardcore testing with the new keyboardID, it hasn't crashed anymore.
o yeah. I think SV is Svenska (Swedish) but not sure..
I think that "ELlsUN_xt9.ldb" stands for Greek (=ELLINIKA in greek).
If you can find the code then we can also use the Greek Dictionary...
AeroByte, where did you get the WWE 1.61 ROM ? Did it come on your device ? Is this an official ROM ? Could you post a link from where I could get it ?
Thanks

Greek should be 0108 if I am correct.
Use this page: http://www.science.co.il/language/Locale-Codes.asp?s=country
All 04 must be changed to 01 (i.e. 0408 to 0108, etc).

There's only an official 1.61 ROM out in WWE/Russian. (You can get everything in Russia )
I'm using a cooked 1.61 ROM from kwbr, the maker of Topix. You can find it here:

Well, i dont have the value added and i still haven't experienced it. But now people can read it if they experience the same.

Allright have it your way, but I think the guide is incomplete like this.. it seems only logic to add the value.. just like you added it to the AvailableLanguages key.. and I wrote a ton of messages today english and dutch and haven't had any problems anymore..
Edit: I wanted to post this to Questions forum. I don't know how to move the post, can an admin do it please?
Hi,
I have Omnia II with English WM 6.5 and some default ROM (I guess details are not important). I bought bluetooth keyboard Freedom Pro and want to use it with my phone. But the keyboard layout is English. Is there ANY way how to change it to Czech QWERTY layout? I have regional settings set to Czech, and Samsung Keypas also set to Czech (and it works without problems) so I think somewhere deeply hidden is Czech keyboard layout. But I didn't find any way to force the phone to use it.
When I connect the keyboard to my computer, I can switch english and czech layout simply by SHIFT+ALT. It doesn't work when connected to the phone.
In my registry in HKLM/System/CurrentControlSet/Control/Keyboard Layout/Active=00000409.
In HKLM/System/CurrentControlSet/Control/Layouts/ are 2 directories - 00000409 and e0010409. In HKLM/System/CurrentControlSet/Control/Layouts/00000409/ are a few keys (I hope it is the right word for value) - "Layout File"=S3c6400_keypad_US.dll; "PS2_AP"=S3c6400_keypad_US.dll; "Layout Text"=US and BuildInKeypad=S3c6400_keypad_US.dll;
I thought the "S3c6400_keypad_US.dll" file may contain settings of keyboard layout. So I found similar structure on my comp and found "kbdcz.dll" there. I copied it to my windows/ directory and changed all the three paths above to this new file. After soft reset nearly all keys become crazy (even on SW keyboards - most of buttons produced MANY characters when pressed) but after a while I managed to set the registry back and soft reset the phone again. Then I decided it's better to ask for help rather than playing with registry.
So do you know a way how to solve this? Is there any czech version of S3c6400_keypad_US.dll that would work for me? Or it's not so simple?
Thank for answers
Dear, I have a problem, buy the HTC SURROUND and wine in English ... I pass it on to Spanish and not find a way.
That is to say that going to Settings and change the display language is not used any other language that is disabled. I have read that at & t remove the other languages ... let alone the English ...
There is some possibility of installing the Spanish language?
There is some rom in Spanish?
Thanks for your help

Hi,
You might want to ask the guys who are active in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=907971
I imagine that the option for other languages has been disabled in the registry and so it will be a matter of re-enabling it. However, I don't know where the key which houses that value would be located.

Can you scan the regIstRy and check if you find keys for spanish? If so spanish can be present and i can look for the number of the spanish language and you can try to type in this number for the current language registry key. But if there are no keys for other languages in your registry im afraid they just removed all multilingual support (which is really dumb/criminal if you ask me and says a lot how close minded and worldstrange the folks at tmobile are...)

Anyone interested in HTC smartphone ? Built in WM6.5, GPS, WiFi, Bluetooth, microSD, etc...
In return need POLISH localization for smartphone (polish language). Actually phone has only english support.
We need POLISH POLSKI 0415 MUI files.
All the details will send to someone who is interested (phone model, original ROM WM6.5 to translate, this is non-touch screen device).
Thanks
Is it the same hTC Ozone that you were trying to translate a couple of months ago?
If so - I can try it.

HTC Ozone is almost fully translated by one person ... I have more phones to translate.
try you're looking for at melgurth or find at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1586293&postcount=73
I have listed a complete set of activities that you need to do for localization at the end of Beginners Guide to Windows Mobile (prepare for cooking). The various task's efforts vary quite much depending on the perfection of adaptation you want to achieve.
Especially the Settings Menu is very hard to translate due to its dependency on the system's generic provisioning handler (and related database entries for menu items).
Post is still OPEN
If anyone is interested in creating just CAB file with translated MUI files and registry entries of WM6.5 to PL POLISH POLSKI just let me know. In return will send smartphone.
I will send You the phone model to translate.
