Adding words to T9 dictionary

I installed phonepad from this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=284378, and Dictmgr from this link:http://mobile-sg.com/
Dictmgr contans T9editor which should be able to modify the T9 dictionaries. Phonepad uses *.DLL dictionaries, and T9editor can only import *.PEF, *. DCF, and *.DIC files ?
How do I open the dictionary files ?

I would really like to know this to, is there away to change the phonepad t9 dic to add words that i commonly use like my name and girlfriends name?

If I'm not mistaken, words which you type manually (so without using the T9) are added to the dictionary. But I'm not really shure.

Yes, they were added when typed manually.
But gone after a soft-reset.

Yes, my "stored" words are also gone after a soft reset which is rather common. Can anyone provide any help ?

I'd like to know this also as its very frustrating having to remind it all the time.

if you use the t9 pad to imput your message and when you've completed your message use the spell check option to store new words you've used. mine are still there after a soft reset. hope this makes sence

Made perfect sense but alas after soft reset it's gone, I've also installed T9Editor but when I try to stat it, it says HTC Phone Pad not installed in device, but it is..... any idea's?

You can try to duplicate the file sym.0409.txt in the windows folder and name this new file sym.0407.txt. It worked for me for the french keyboard (sym.040C.txt in french).

What Atmis said, I simply modified the sym.0409.txt file in /Windows so I easily could type Swedish characters such as å,ä & ö with a/o + space. You need to copy it over to your computer with active sync, edit the file then move it back.

Already tried to copy the origional sym.409.txt to sym.407.txt (german) but when i press the "blue" space nothing happens.

You need to replace the sym.0409.txt file if your OS is in English.

Having Hermes with QWERTZ keyboard (switzerland) and English WM6 (Vanilla)

That's interesting. I had the same issues when upgrading my device to AKU 3.3. After some changing forward backward between English and German Keyboard it suddenly worked.
I also upgraded a second device and I cannot get the space key working to change between the special letters.
I know it does not help but maybe it's an device bug. I will downgrade the device the other device when I can get it back again and see if it works with the original image.

It was working flawlessly for me, I just had to reboot the device after creating the new file.

... After HardReset, installing the "German Input Cab", modifiying sym.0409.txt and a reboot everything is working fine...
Probably some manipulation described in the wiki i made before installing the cab made the changes...
finally it works. thanks to all

Ehm. I am not trying to sound stupid or anything. but how do I find this"sym.409.txt"? I would like to change some of the keys into norwegian symbols like æ, ø and å.
I have just heard something about the root folder.
But in that case. where is it, I assume that I am just being blind or something but.
THanks for your help

Not blind, the file is hidden, at least on my system with Josh Manulla2D.
To see the file in Windows, using File Explorer, click on "Menu/Show All Files".
My problem is that I have made changes for my German keyboard on an English language install, but I cannot replace the file in \Windows. All I get is an Access Denied message.
Anybody know how I can get past this to replace the sym.409.txt file?
Task Manager is installed so surely it must be some service that needs killing to free up the file.
Regards
Peter

Not sure what's the issue.

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

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.

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 ?

I am not sure what skin you refer to but unless its Human (which make sense when it comes to Hebrew support) I am not interested in the skin i.e. TF3D

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!

(Solved) Changing the Word Completion language?

Hi guys!
I have a WWE Touch Pro 2 and I just found the registry tweak (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4014852) to enable word completion.
Since most of my messages are in Dutch I would like to change the Word Completion database to Dutch.
Does anybody know how to do this?
Kind regards,
Piet

Word Completion in Dutch
Hello PietSukkel (hihi)
I changed the reg. also to enable Word Completion. I have a branded T-Mobile Rhodium. I have a Dutch word completion.
So it seems that the correct language file was already on my phone.

Your phone is probably running the Dutch OS version, I'm running the WWE version, so word completion is in English.

Same problem here. I also have a WWE version... that's why I don't use word completion. To workaround this minor "setback", I write faster. lol
Just kidding.
What about loading the language file(s) to the correct path (don't have a clue where) and then activate it via registry? It should do the trick... I think.
Have to find out which files and the correspondent reg key though.
