Edit the registry so you keyboard language will reflect your system language:
Goto the following registry entry
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty]
There is a key called 'Layout' and it is in Decimal.
The default value of English ROM is 20409, and Chinese ROM is 20404 (both are in hexadecimal).
The suitable value for German Hermes keyboard is 20407 (132103 in decimal).
The suitable value for Spanish Hermes keyboard is 2040a (132106 in decimal).
Probably Hermes use 20+country ID (409=WWE, 407=German, 404=Trad. Chinese, etc...) format for keyboard layout value.
After changing these settings soft reset the device to make it work.
If you are using Cingular device there should be a CAB floating around, use search.

i tried to search...i used the cingular wap settings but didn't find another cingular cab...if you can post it here...it would be greatly appreciated...

i just tried changing the registry...to the english one...it doesn't work?

I am using Google to find what needed on this site. If you use good search query you will get better results than with integrated search (and usually it is faster too ).

A lot of it may be that we have read a lot of posts and happen to remember which thread it was in, however, I just did a search to see if I could find it.
"Cingular keyboard fix cab" is what I used. It was the third post down. When looking for a file, just click the little paperclip and it will show all the available files in that thread.
Much easier than reading 400 posts.
Enjoy the forum

I downloaded this path but i am not sure what to do with them after extracting them. I am new to upgrading my hermes. I am running Schap's 4.31 rom. I am trying to get my keyboard to operate correctly. I tried a few of the ways above and have failed.

You can use
1) advanced config to set the keyboard language
2) DONT extract the cab, just copy it to your phone, then click on it in file explorer, it will install then.

I entered 40409 in "Decimal" and it worked after a soft reset.
Previously I entered 20409 and it did not.
Edit: I have some buttons which still do not work.

Frustrating!

Keyboard - please help on Scandinavian settings

Hep. Have been looking around the forum to find a way to change the keyboard layout (Hardware), to Danish.
I simply cant make it work. I have the Live 0.2 rom, and have tried the reg. editing as written in the forum..but no go.
Can someone please give a guide to which rom that I can use if I want a Danish Keyboard - or can someone do anything about the Keyboard issues. (Make some kind of a cab or??) I cannot do it myself, but would really be thankfull.
And - great thing with all this rom biz. I know nothing about it - but loves to jazz up my phone...hehehe

Look at this post Norwegian Keyboard on WM 6?, it has the cab file for the keyboard attached, this is used for all nordic tytn.
I've just installed xdalive keyboard fix cab-> softreset -> nordic keymap cab -> softreset and now the mapping is correct!

I am wondering the same thing, have tried to search the forum with no luck
are there some who got the xdalive keyboard fix cab and nordic keymap cab?
when you guys find all the solutions to the mapping add them to the wiki, or pm me the list of fixes all nice and neat and i will put them on there
This works on XDA-Live & Black (at least)
Here's the one I use and it works on most of them anyways. Remember to soft reset afterwards.
Whenever I flash a new ROM or do a hard reset I just change the following ONE registry setting.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty]
"Layout"=132116
Why not make a fix_my_qwerty_mapping.reg file and save this on your storage card, content like this (I have no idea how to make a .cab file, but this works fine for me):
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty\]
"Layout"=dword:20414
This is the Norwegian settings, but it doesn't matter for Finnish, Swedish and Danish users - it's all the same mapping. I got a TyTN/Herm 200 and for all I know this could be firmware dependent.
The number "132116" is decimal and found by:
20+countrycode, country code for Norway: 0414. That will be 20414. Converting this hex to dec gives 132116.
(When using the .reg file it writes in hex and therefore 20414, but you can manually enter the number directly into the register using hex if you like.)
Country codes:
http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/reference/winxp/xp-lcid.mspx
Remember to power down/up after applying this registry change - not just a stylus soft reset.

Layout Keyboard

Hi Guys, i have a question...
If i flash my WM5 TyTN (Ita) to a WM6 English Version how can i do to have a right KeyBoard layout?
Thx
dont worry about the keyboard layout too much. just READ the forums and you will see that there are keyboard fixes for all of the known layout issues. some like the ROMs from Custel even allow you to change the layout through a built in application in the setting.
well thx for the answer... I search and i found not so much just: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=313814&highlight=keyboard+layout+fix
Is it the right way or does exist a .cab file?
Just install Shadowmites HTCustom1.5
It allows you to choose different kb layouts.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1271619
It does sound like you need to do some more reading though.
well there is always something to learn
Thx a Lot
Well on this file you told me to download there are a lot of intrestin language but NO ITALIAN
I'm sorry ops
I 'll see if I can find something.
Will this help:

Dictionary Editor and Autocomplete

Hi,
Is there a version of Dictionary Editor that works with WM6? And... how I can change the Dictionary language, I need to change only the dictionary, not any other thing, I mean, keyboard layout, etc. Is there a .ca for that?.

Isn't this custom behavior? All words I write in Norwegian seems to get added to the dictionary, even phrases. This has been the same for all WM6 roms I've tried (Black Satin isn't one of them though).

Unfortunately DictEditor does not support WM6 yet. And WordCorrector will support WM6 only in the next version (which I hope to release soon). SpellChecker works with WM6 without changing anything.
Currently, one WM6 user is helping me to do some "detective" work and hopefully find out what file/database actually contains the word completion dictionary in WM6. Too bad I don't own a WM6 device yet, else the hunting/development process should be able to speed up.
i forget the name of the file in the rom but its a .txt file and its located near the preconfig.txt if you search a rom dump sorted by type. i have edited the text and it worked its pretty easy just need to dump the rom thats all.

I hope you are referring to the word completion dictionary rather than the auto correct dictionary.
Dictionaries in WM5 and earlier:
1) Word Completion: dyncompdict.dat
2) Spell Checking: custom.dic
3) Auto correct: autocorrect.txt
Dictionaries in WM6:
1) Word Completion: ???
2) Spell Checking: custom.dic
3) Auto correct: autocorrect.0409.txt (for English ROM)
I hope someone figures out the "missing link" so that I can work on an update for DictEditor soon.

It would be really handy to find out which file holds the Word Completion dictionary - I've got a few duff entries in mine (on my Universal), so I'd like to delete the whole lot.

I hadn't gotten a chance to work with your program since I recently flashed. I just automatically installed it since it was always so helpful in the past. I hope you will keep us up to date when you get it working for WM6
vicott, I'm using HTC Touch and I installed HTC PhonePad. I also installed your T9Editor, but when I run it, it always says "HTC Phone Pad is not installed in your device." I have already did a soft reset, chose PhonePad as SIP and the error message still pops up.

I received quite a couple of irrelevent e-mails regarding this post lately, so I have to clarify here once & for all.
Firstly, I was only referring to an update for T9Editor (I was only responmding to a query if you guys have read the earlier posts), which is one of the 6 "sub-programs" in the DictMgr suite.
Secondly, T9Editor is only used for modifying the dictionary used by HTC Phone Pad.
Thirdly, 5 of the 6 "sub-programs" in DictMgr suite are already compatible with WM6 all the while. The only one that is not compatible is DictEditor.
Next, the update for T9Editor (which is also included in the latest version of DictMgr) has already been released. Please go to my website to download it.
Lastly, DictEditor (used to modify the word completion dictionary in WM5 and below) is not compatible with WM6 because the word completion dictionary file is a different file (different filename and location) in WM6. To add on to the misery, the file structure is totally different. That makes it highly challenging to develop a dictionary editor for it since I haven't read about anybody "deciphering" how the file works YET.

Touch Keypad/Keyboard input method

I am now using bepe's wonderful rom version 0.77. This rom includes the "Touch Keypad" and "Touch Keyboard" input methods, which i like a lot, but these two input methods have different appearance depending on whether the cursor focus: (please refer to the images attached) When the cursor is on a input text box, it shows the keypad, with xt9 support, but when it is not, it just shows a qwerty keyboard. I'd like to ask whether it is possible to be customized so that it would show the keypad with xt9 support regardless on the cursor focus.
do we have a seperate CAB for this?
I also like the input method very much. but it's not working well with PocketCM.
Somebody have file cab? Post please...
I would also like to obtain the cab for the Keypad - its the best input for me at the moment!
I'm lookin for it too, please post cab
I've tried the (poor) forum search and googling the site but not found the cab file. If anyone has it please post, we have a few replies now so the demand is here!
Thanks!
when i first saw this thread, i was googling also for some time, but there really is nothing, absolutely nothing!
Maybe this keyboard could be interestening.... hoping someone finds a cab

How to disable/remove Keytouch from Kavana's 6.1?

Hi everybody.
The kavana 6.1 rom works great on my phone, yet the keytouch IME is giving me a lot of headache.
Could anyone tell me how could I uninstall Keytouch, so that I can switch to other IMEs, such as et9 and MSPY?
I've searched the forum and some other places too, but information on removing keytouch is found.
Thanks!
Ya no kidding it was kinda cool at first but now its just annoying and it's laggy. if i knew Chinese it would be great but for English you don't need anything fancy like that.
So Someone help can it be removed or disabled?

Kinda it's in one of Kavanas new roms it's for chinese and english but frankly i don't need it. I did find something out though.
To make it so it's English only goto and change registry to whats bellow
HKEY_Current_User\Software\HTC\KeyTouch
SupportedLang EN
SupportedLangCount 1
That will remove the Chinese functionality. Which helps alot but doesn't make it perfect.
To remove it all together You'd have to change the registry to the following
HKEY_Local_Machine\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e0010409
Ime File compime.dll
Layout Text COMP IME
BUT THERE IS A PROBLEM
there is no compime.dll in the rom which means we would have to find the english one from another rom and install it to our windows directory. I am not quite sure it that is right so please con someone help out with this file XD
