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.

Keyboard fix works on Touch Pro2!
Thankx Xaltotun!

what would be the code for a french azerty keyboard layout

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

I have found this but am at work and cannot check to see if it's the right thing...

i definetely did the same thing as you did, it takes me 5 hours to dump all the reg and hundreds of files from bepe's rom, follow the original xT9 requied file format and the list in the reg, rebuild them and cook into another rom. but i get the same result as you!!
there must be some peticular thing we didnot discover about the xT9 in bepe's Rom!!

5 hours ? so much... but yes it's strange... =)

ops i missed one file =)

How to get Samsung i780 Keyboard Qwerty to Azerty driver ?

Hello all,
i have read through a lot in the forum and have alerady flashed and tweaked a lot my i780 with my readings of your Forum. (after doing the same for my TyTNII !))
Bravo to all BTW.
I have a French i780 with an AZERTY keyboard.
I have flashed with the DXHC4 PDA & Phone ROM found here. Since then I have a QWERTY keyboard when the physical keyboard is AZERTY
I have tried the registry edition in order to modify the keyboard mapping to 040C code in the 3 locations described in the different posts without success as it rendres inactive the keyboard.
I tried the different combinations etc...
Here are the exact lines :
in hkey_current_user\keyboard layout\preload string default e0010409 changed to e001040c
\\\HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout\Active to 0000040c
Is there an issue with a dll or someting in addition ?
Also, I do use RealVGA in 96dpi with an English pack as the french pack is trashing the i780
Any idea is more than welcome !

Hello the i780 specialists ?
Any Idea what registry key to update ? or which driver ?
do you think a cab like the one for the Kayser can be compiled ?
Thanks

While youre on it, please get us the key for Swedish keyb as well
I flashed with the english ROM as well, and....

I am pretty sure there must be a way and it would be great to know the right registry location - would like to change mine over to QUERTZ as I am having an English rom with a German keyboard...
And ideas anyone?
Thanks
Alex

AE Keyboard Mapper
While we are waiting for better solution the buttons can be mapped to right letters wit AE Keyboard Mapper program. I've mapped my samsungs ä and ö buttons with that and they are working as they should.

Yes it work but i creates a very irritating keybaord lag when using the keys that is mapped with AE keyboardmapper.

Yep, I have seen this tutorial, but I must admit that I am not at all interested in the software emulation. I 'd rather wait for a proper OS / registry / hw solution

No news guys ???

First of all, I'm no export in this and want to apologize for my english, cause I'm german.
Me too wants to change the keyboard layout as I have an english rom with qwerty and want to get back my german qwertz-layout.
As far as I've found out there is an registry entry under "HKLM/Hardware/DEVICEMAP/KEYBD/DriverName" which with my device maps to a dll named "zylonite_keypad_us.dll"
This file seems to be located in the ROM. I couldn't copy it for editing. Maybe someone can develop an idea how to deal with this.

Do you have an I780?
If yes, which of these mentioned steps did you do?
This is not yet working for me. At the Moment the hardware keyboard doesn't work at all...
Edit: So, keyboard is working again. But "z" and "y" are still "swapped". So still not the German- QWERTZ

Same here, ive got an azerty i780, but this tip does'nt work for me

It doesn't work at all
The keyboard is rendered NON active by modifiying these reg keys / strings ...

When I change the settings like that thread, my keyboard stopped working
I use the code: 041d for Swedish.
Mind helping out what I need to do? I followed the instructions from that page but the keyboard just stopped working, the hardware keyb that is.

In my humble opinion the problem is that when we change the registry keys we are telling windows to use a different dll that simply is not there, and so the keyboard becomes inactive. The solution is that someone with a German WM6 gets the german dll and shares it with us.
Regards,
Luís

Before flashing my azerty orange fr i780, i saved HKLM sytem tree, and the dll is the same.
The only difference in HKLM tree is :
\\HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout\Active
040c for azerty french
0409 for US
But doesn't work on my device

Or a Swedish ROM since there are a few of us that would need the swedish dll then

I still got the German phone and intend to upgrade to UK ROM. What dll exactly do you guys need?

dll is : zylonite_keypad_Us.dll
But totalcommander refuses to copy the file

Do you have a registry editor on yout I780?
Then look at: HKLM/Hardware/DEVICEMAP/KEYBD/DriverName
There should be a .dll listed.
I guess thats the one we need. But I fear, as webise said, that you can't copy this file from your windows folder. As far as I've seen this file is in ROM.

Hebrew WM6.1 for Tytn/Jasjam/Hermes(Touch, Trinity, Universal)15/05/09 fix

Hebrew WM6.1/WM6
for Tytn and Jasjam
NEW VERSION!!!!!
SUPPORTS:HTC Trinity P3600, HTC Touch, Universal (Xda Exec aka JasJar)
Includes:
- Superfast and Superlight.
- No backwards hebrew bug reg. problems.
- No Booting issues (No freezes, dead on wake etc.)
- No Longer based on commercial hebrews.
- Works on Tytn and Jasjam or any hermes with FULL hardware
keyboard support.
made from scratch hence no problems
This version has NO menu or interface translation
just full on hebrew support including
hebrew localization in regional setting.
there is no embedded SIP keyboard (YET) thus there's a keyboard cab with hebrew support also attached but this
is only temporary till the next version is out.
IF YOU USE ANY DEVICE OTHER THAN HERMES:
this version will (probably) work but it will install
a not needed hardware keyboard support
a version without hardware is here:
http://www.4shared.com/file/93234549/e12c7004/Badnimits_Hebrew_nohardkeybrd.html
please test this versions and let me know if theres any unknown issues
this was made after many requests and most of them were taken into consideration
the main plus is that its not pdac eyron or paragon related.
**COMING SOON:**
*Hebrew SIP Keyboard Embedded
*Optional interface translation
*Hebrew Smartdialing

hey man, what do you mean? aek is embedded with hebrew layout so you dont need to set it up or install it yourself..maybe you downloaded the wrong version? there are two, the bottom one with hardware and the upper one without..
and as for hikeyboard, i didnt wanna post with no SIP so its just temporary untill my next version, but i think the trial is unlimited, if not let me know

i meant that i used your:
1) Hebrew cab for Hebrew fonts and regional settings
2) hikeyboard for the hebrew letters keyboard
3) AEKeymap for the hardware keyboard
when i installed the hikeyboard he asked me if i want to use it as the hardware keyboard but it didn't worked so i reinstalled the AEKeymap again.

yes and pretty much every new rom thats circulating in this forum.
its a very simple support(unlike eyron or pdac) so i guess unless someone finds out a rom in which it doesnt work will go with any.

I am sooo glad to post this!
Your hebrew works great on the WWE3 for the Magician-still didn't realize if it is a 2003SE with wm6.1 theme or a completely new cooked ROM.
the ROM was taken from :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=490948
Haleluya

sounds great, I am on a vogue though (no keyboard) so I will be waiting for the next release,
Just a thought, if it works on several models, you should probably consider posting it in the general hacking and development forum section, it will get much more exposure.
Thanks for your great work.

i dont really know that phone but this is pda based so dll wise
smart phones are not fully compatible to anything in this forums.
to change the key setting u can use AEKMapScan in \program files\aekmap\ press the key/s that u want to use to switch layouts find out the "key code" then edit AEKMap.cfg and change the line
SwitchKey 007A to
SwitchKey ****=your code
goodluck

Motorola Q9c
Are there any settings to play with that may get it to work.
Thanks alot

Happy to inform that the recent version works great on all Hermes ROMs I tried so far!
Is this an indication that the keyboard is the main cause of previous failures? (that's the only visible difference I could see).
Anyway - great work!
Obviously a soft keyboad would be nice, but this is already very nice!

SURE!
every ROM i have tested till mr. nimits showed up was dramatically decreased on performance after ANY Hebrew installation i tried.

my guess is that INBiDi20.dll doesnt self register properly, if u got any version of hebrew that did work maybe u can try replacing it with any dll that has bidi in its name from the working version
otherwise i cant really help cause i dont have that phone to test on so it will be a waste of time.. GL

Glad to hear and to add that it also works on the new wm6.5 21189 builds flawlessly..
the previous failures are cause eyron pdac and paragon are a bunch of greedy
bastards that dont like to work but like to take our money so they did as less as possible whilst developing their hebrews

Mapping keyboard keys for Hebrew (or any other language)

I found "AE Keyboard Mapper" extremely useful to make my TP2 keyboard produce Hebrew characters.
It first provides you with a simple utility to scan the keyboard for the code produced by a key (or key combination) press.
It then lets you update a config file to make each key code to a corresponding Unicode character code.
and thats about it.
I've used it to create a mapping of the keys to Hebrew but you can do it to any other language.
The attached contain two files:
1) "EA Keyboard Mapper" installation cab
2) Hebrew config file for TP2
First install "AE Keyboard Mapper"
Once the "AE Keyboard Mapper" is installed/
Place the Hebrew config file in the \Program Files\AEKMap directory
Run "AEKMap Settings" utility and select the new layout from the list
Reload AEKMap
Enjoy
P.S. As a few indicated I left a 2 inportent details out
1) The letter "ת" is mapped to the Envelope key on the bottom row.
2) Switching btween English and Hebrew - I have mapped CTRL+"." to do it but you can map you own switching combination with the AEKMapSettings app.

I share your pain and hate to disappoint you but there is no free Hebrew that is compatible with TP2.
With that there is no Hebrew for the TF3D that works on TP2.
If only Ben-Yehuda knew what he is getting us into
To date PDAC is the only Hebrew that would run on TP2 but I had such a bad experience with it on my old TyTN that I wouldn't even consider installing it on my new TP2...

Eliezer would do it better...
anyway - Since I installed PDAC the "fun" key stopped FUNctioning.
do you know this problem ?

We need to get one of the guys who did it before (avimak, nir36, alex2003 or the_dude) to give us directions on how to replicate their work on TP2.

These guys refuse to to help us..
I dont really know what the big deal is..
PDAC Hebrew is really slowing down the device =| It doesnt support the hardware keyboard as it is..
Eyron are supposed to release hebrew for our TP2 devices.. hope they do it soon.. =|

I don't really get what you guys are saying:
first, the link I posted IS for TP2 ! or did I miss something ?
second, I didn't get the part about these guys REFUSING to help.
please explain guys

I installed this method together with PDAC, It works great as I type the first 4 letters.. then it just doesnt work anymore =|

Seeing the problem with the FUN key on the PDAC I tried it on the AEKMap and figured it wasn't working
Quickly enough I also found a solution. AEKMap supports an ALT key which doesn't exist on the TP2 keyboard so I have mapped the ALT to the FUN key code and voila we have a working FUN key in Hebrew which means you can write in Hebrew and still use the FUN key to produce "?", "-", "+" etc.
All you have to do is unzip the attached, place it in the \Program Files\AEKMap directory (overwriting the existing file), Unload and reload the AEKMap using the AEKMap-Settings app and you are good to go.

thanks man~!!
i really needed it! you done a great job!
continue like that
well done!
