Could someone post some files from different ROMs?

Hi,
I'm currently trying to change the word completion feature on my XDA2 (English ROM) to German. Could someone with a German ROM post his mssp2_de.lex file?
The idea is to change the Spell Check key in the registry and see if this would work...
Oh, and another request: Could someone post all the themes that are included by default on a WM2003SE device? (I'm looking for a landscape version of the 'default' theme from WM2003).
Thanks very much,
softworkz

i know of a project where they did the same but
the lex only do dictionary in word not in mails and sms thats from somewhere else
that that was required was taking the
mssp2_XX.lex file from a pc with word97 (not sure why it had to be 97)
copying it to the pda and overwriting the
mssp2_en.lex file there
though some people have been reporting it imposible after 2003 or something
here is the reg to the dic name and location btw
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Speel Check\Main_Dict

Thanks for posting the key (I already knew it, but I wanted to test it first).
I don't think, it's possible to overwrite this file because it seems to be a ROM file. But chances are good that copying another file to the \windows folder and changing the regsetting could work.
Anyone could post the German mssp2_de.lex file from his PDA?
Thanks very much,
softworkz

It's actually mssp2_ge.lex
German Rom 1.66.231.

Could somebody please make mssp2_en.lex available?
Thanks.

bepe, you can use my kitchen to easily extract files/ replace files/ edit registry/ edit initflash ... i hope youll make a good translation

Gimme some work to do
Hi !
Great Idea, give me some work to do, maybe translating / checking translation, or stuff like this.
PM me
soniX

hey bepe
this is great!
same goes for me. just let me know if i can help.

help wanted
same for me...

Thanks for the offering, but I'm mostly fighting with the configuration of that ROM. The translation was the easy part, cos I was able to use things from existing German ROMs...
I think there will be a beta the next days and I would need you all to check that for bugs

You've got a guinea pig right now
If it does not brick my phone, I will help you testing out...
soniX

can you fix swedish rom
can you fix swedish rom Wm6

That’s the problem...
I don’t have a Hermes, so I cannot try it myself.
Bad thing is that I cannot guaranty that the ROMs I need tested would not brick a device.
I do my best, but no one is perfect and it is easy to brick a Hermes
asukal is testing the ROMs for me... he is a really good friend and I'm sure we will find a solution in case of bricking his device.
BTW, he will test the beta too... so it should not brick your devices

no, sorry... I can only make a German rom at the moment

1) If you substitute some files, reg values etc.. why you have to rebuild the Os and don't make a cab file installer??
2) Can you add to the first post ALL the registry keys changed & all the files substituted (and other things done)?
..also i want to start an italian translation project... but for now i'm searching spellcheck & words dictionary... and fixing keyboard issues..

the cab would be to big... about 6MB... also I think that it is better to have a clean rom

you should try my package tool
use it to build packages of your rom and you will see that there are localized packages like: Base_Lang_0409
all files inside this localized packages should be replaced

Bepe's tool is great, give it a try.

are there any news?

What is the basic for your german rom? Auf welcher ROM-Variante basiert dein ROM?
I would prefer WM6 for Hermes LVSW Edition (WM6 Pro Style).

Make your X01HT a WM6 Device (for Gaijins)

You just got your X01HT and would like to use the latest WM6 ROM in English with your Softbank account ?
Here is a quick guide, gathering information that has been exchanged and spread accross many threads on this forum (Searches can be fastidious, I know that well...)
I have been reading this forum a lot, keeping on asking questions to everybody, so it's time I contribute a bit to help by describing step by step how I switched my Japanese WM5 Softbank X01HT to a WM6 English device
This post is target at Gaijins who want an English WM6, but still want to be able to use Japanese with it. For a Japanese MUI or ROM, I guess Asukal will probably publish something
***EDIT: for a 100% Japanese ROM, you can now have it here: http://buzzdev.net/index.php?option...um_query=read,40,30486,30597,page=2#msg-30597 ***
I was first willing to cook a ROM including all these, in order to spare some space on my HERMES. I had already cooked an "intermediary" one when Tadzio issued his method to make a "shrinked" OS ROM that would allow you to use the spare space from the ROM
Since this, no point in adding all these mods in my ROM
First: making flashing safe
Download Hard-SPL-V2 from the great Olipro to avoid bricking your device. Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722
Install it
Then, get your ROM.
Download the_passenger ROM shrink version of LVSW 20070320 ROM (More space available) and install it (Read threads about flashing ROMs if you are not familiar with that...)
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=8YJATBPG
Install the Softbank AP Settings for your internet connection. You really WANT that. Big thanks to itamae without whom we'd be stuck on first of April this year... (Or I'd still be using WM5)

Now you need a Registry editor
I am used to PHM Regedit. You can find it there for free:
http://www.phm.lu/Products/PocketPC/RegEdit/
To map properly your Softbank Keyboard, do the following registry modifications:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty] "Layout"= 30411 (Hexadecimal base)
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload] "Default"= e0010411
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload\1] "Default"= e0010411
More details here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=286787&highlight=keyboard+x01HT
To allow the video Call key to appear on your phone keypad, modify the registry as follows:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin] Enabled = 1
Optional: getting rid of useless trayapp (It looks nice... but it Slows down the Hermes and you can replace it with better apps)
Delete TrayApp key from [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init]
Fix the disappearing micro SD (Doesnt really work for mine... But could work for yours...)
[HKLM\System\StorageManager]"PNPUnloadDelay" = dword:8196 (Decimal base)

Now time to have your Hermes speak Japanese
Japanese fonts
Use the excellent work from Asukal, that you can find here:
http://www.asukal.jp/WM5/LetsJapanNo5.zip
I did have a problem with it: once I executed it, I could not sync with my Exchange server (Quite a pain for my push email account...)
Asukal found the solution: edit the registry, and change
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Mobem\CE-Star] "MyNLS" = "\windows\wince.nls"
Japanese input
Not using for myself, but these work perfectly (I tried):
http://www.asukal.jp/WM5/BagojsINPUT.zip
*** EDIT
If you prefer a Japanese input without the annoying "Floating bar", ie just the same input way as your original WM5 Softbank ROM, just downlaod and install the "MS IME31 J" link from Asukal's page:
http://hn801.hkes.com/Data/SIP/IME_31J_QVGA_F.zip
*** /EDIT
Silent mode switch
You're going to be missing the Softbank unique way of switching to silent mode (Only available in Softbank ROM)
The way to go around this is by using Vibra

Download here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=31657&d=1164714506
MMS
Softbank's MMS System is a pain because it's incompatible with "classic" MMS systems...
You can download Softbank's software... But... it's slow, big, bulky, ugly, etc... If you dont mind missing the emoticons, you should go for MMSLite
Regedit, Look for Arcsoft. Delete all references to Arcsoft (Sometimes need to be done in several times, some entries being in use if you have by mistake launched MMS Composer once since your flash of the OS...)
If you dont do these eletions, MMSLite will actually not install...
Downlaod and install MMSLite
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=33982&d=1170599400
It should work perfectly !
I you have enough courage (And ONLY after having installed Hard-SPL 1.11 !!!), you can try flashing your radio
You dont have to... but the latest 1.38 does seem to grant an improved battery life
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=297925
Now you're done, you have a great phone with a faster OS, more storage space, improved battery life, that works perfectly with Softbank AP, can use Softbank proprietary MMS system, and can read and write Japanese
After, there are lots of other things you can do, like mounting your Extended ROM to gain extra space, Unlock the SIM, etc, etc... But it is not the purpose of this thread. Have fun reading the forum, it is well documented in other threads
Have fun !!

another gaijin
just read yourpost today...im at work and i cant wait to go home and follow each of these steps.
man thanks...this is what some of us gaijins are looking for the past few weeks.
btw,
you mentioned sim unlocking etc...etc...
you mean to say, sim unlocking is done after the wm6 flash? why would some do that before the flash?

Hello,
The only problem when upgrading is the Japanese input. I used sometimes (so I need it), but I I install Japanese input package you told in your post the I have a really annoying floating bat anywhere, and it's really unnoying.
There is no way to have same kind of input in enlish ROM?

Try Asukal's IME package (see bottom of page):
http://asukal.net/blog/?cat=8&paged=3
... it includes the input method from WM5 (or one extremely similar). I'm using it with WM6 Black Edition 1.2 and have had no problems with input so far.
As for other Japanese/Japan-conversion-related issues:
- I found that when the Japanese wince.nls file is loaded, .NET CF programs crash with a 'PlatformNotSupportedException' error.
- With MMSLite installed, I can receive MMS, but not send.

I hope you'll let me be a little off-topic.
I actually installed the Japanese ROM you linked to, it works like a charm, but I have a question to SoftBank users :
I'm going to work in Japan soon (1st of April) but I want to use my Hermes as my primary phone, etc. Is it possible to go to a SoftBank shop and tell them basically "Don't ask me how, but this phone is SoftBank-compatible. Now please register it into the SoftBank network and gimme a standard phone subscription. Thanks".
Meaning how can I register my phone (SIM card ? I looked and they seem to have only outrageously expensive SIM cards on loan for 108円 a day, with no 3G connectivity. Or is it possible to get a standard subscription?)?
Thanks for your help

Really? I don't get a floating bar.
Did you try it on a clean installation of WM6, or did you install it after installing the Bagojs IME? Maybe some settings in the registry are causing the bar to appear.
Also, did you set your locale to Japanese in "Control Panel->System->Regional Settings"?

You shouldn't need to install both BagojsIME and Asukal's IME package, just Asukal's. BagojsIME provides an older version of the MS IME.

Use you own phone with SB
You can pick a ZERO Yen phone to do a new contract with SB. Then change the sime card to your onw phone. Suppose you have a sim-unlock phone.

I didnt have to install anything to get the Manner mode working. I think this is implemented in WMXL. But when i set the phone skin security to 1
my phone pad disappears, turns white. Renders unusable. The only fix for me is to set it back to 0.
This might be due to the carrier setting, it happens immediately after running SB external rom carrier info.
Any ideas?

[i780] FR rom connection fix

Hi,
I want to create a bin file with my dumped rom (HHC2 FR), with the Samsung i780 kitchen 0.2 beta, but there is a connection issue.
Like famusc wrote in his post, the problem can be fixed by use another bin with the same language for the conversion. But all the bin I found has this problem.
Does anyone have an old french rom which works fine ?
If not, do you know how to fix this issue ?
Is it possible to fix it with the use of another rom language for the conversion ?
If I find a way to fix it, I'll upload it here.
Thx.

No one can help me ?

We have the same problem with the German rom. It seems that we can't use the kitchen to cook the rom and have to find another way. But here comes the problem. Maybe someone could give us advise....

I am inclined to port my WM6.1 release to "some" euro locales (Germania, Italino, French etc) I have ideas on how to do that but I don't think I have the time to selectively port the required MUIs.

I understand that, but maybe you can give us hints on how start filtering the MUIs or what you think we have to do. Just replacing the zylonite_keypad_Us.dll and the S00x files brings the result that the layout changes but the mouse and the touchscreen seem to not get along with it...
What do you think???

Changing the keyboard driver alone will not be sufficient. You need to have supporting MUIs to make them work in harmony. The MUIs need to be salvaged from pure Fr (for example) rom which runs on the desired DPI. IE, the MUIs must be extracted carefully out from the donor rom and then placed in the kitchen with the proper rgus that correspond to the Lang ID. But finding intact MUIs can be a problem in itself. Was there any official release for i780 Rom in Fr?

I don't know if there was in France, but in Germany we have an official release and I have the dumped files extracted from the clear german rom too...

So I assume that Germanic keyboard is applicable to Fr as well?

No don't think so because in France they got azerty and we here in germany have the qwertz layout. We just have to change the Y and Z... I don't know if it makes that easier... So you think that replacing the zylonite_keypad_Us.dll or editing it is not he right beginning...?????

I think you are on the right track, just that you can't rely 100% on that alone. If you are familar with rom cooking, then you can explore with sourcing out for MUI files from other roms (not necessarily i780) and do trial and error in cooking them.

Ok thanks for helping... I will try some MUIs from other ppc. But I think the problem is that the zylonite_Keypad_Us.dll is Samsung made think...

Thx for helping.
Is there a simple way to just fix the connexion issue in an fr rom ?
I have the raw files, the bin file and I just want to make change to this rom.
The connexion issue is : there is no connexion at the first start of windows mobile, IE and WLM don't work...

I only want to correct this bug, can anyone help me ?
Can I fix that by edit reg config ??

Portuguese people, anyone has pthpd.kdb? Please help us.

Hi,
Me and the all the other people who have phones with Compact keyboard (16 keys), have a big problem. We really would like to use XT9 Portuguese, and there are people doing tests and trying to do a .cab to make that's possible, but unfortunately look's like we need just one file. So, what we really need, that you search in your phones if you find the file pthpd.kdb (just do a search with this name, will just take a couple of seconds of your time), and please share with us. It's possible it exists in phones dont have keyboard but have XT9 PTG working. So, please search in your files if you find that, and share
Who is leading to make the .cab is DupinBJK's, you can see his thread (below).
It's the pthpd.kdb hardware mapping file. I already have the mapping files for the other layout, but that one is missing. I can rebuild from scratch the layout files for the full qwerty keyboards, even if it is a quite lenghty process, but I can't do the same for that file.
