I have installed another language on this device on top of English (based in ROM).
As you know, the hard keys have English letters on them.
I wanted to know what is the key combination to switch the hard keys between English and other languages?
As of now I am using the virtual keyboard only...which is a bummer.
For example in Tytn is was Fn+Space...
Try PqzII and you can define alt & control combinations and map yourself a new keyboard - switching on alt would give you access to what ever you would map to the keys.
What language did you put on? Hebrew? Did you succeed with sending/recieving sms correctly? What language solution did you use? Thanks.
Peace.
In the i780 the function FN+Sapce of TyTn and others is made by the key at right side of Shift, the second one from left on the last line.
Foe example, when i write a A, and pressing it change to Á À Â Ä...

I will try it, but I just don't know what command to execute on this key combinations for changing the language...
I am using hebrew lang, and I can see SMS ok, no interface translation though.
I used Leng Extender for this.
I know that Eyron and PDAC will support this as well.

It should be doing that, but for some reason it does not find the hebrew font I added and does not change to it

Hello, i'm waiting from ebay an keyboard for qtek 9000(in this case, T-mobile MDA) and it was a qwertz layout.
the question is, if I change the original keyboard to a new keyboard with diferente button positions such as Ok button,video call button and others, will pda recognize the diference and atribute right function to each button?

no i believe it will not.... the keyboard replacement you bought are just button pads... external only and does not contain the board that corresponds to the button press.... this means it will still follow the original keyboard format even if the buttons say otherwise... you could use a software however to remap these buttons to suit your new keyboard layout.
Universal Keyboard
Hi!
I have a Universal with a German keyboard running WM6 in English.
There is no need for any sort of special software to map the keys when you change from German to English. When you load a WWE WM6 your device will automatically have a US QWERTY layout. It will be then up to you to remember your Touch Typing 101 lessons.
It's generally not that bad with letters and numbers--just swap the Y and the Z. Punctuation is harder. When I first got my phone I printed out the keyboard layouts from both a German Vodafone manual and an UK manual and carried them around for reference. After two months I don't even notice anymore.
Good luck,
shrines
Hi,
Why are you suggesting that??? It's much easier to fix the registry for the german layout. That's what I have.
1. for the german keyboard on english ROM
2. get a registry editor (like Resco)
3. search the key [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\Qwerty]
4. edit - Layout in decimal to 66567 (from 66569)
5. softreset
(thanks to macznik)

Yeah I now have tried that to but I dont´like the lag it creates - it feels even faster to type "a" and then press the "au" button untill the a changes to "å" or "ä" So I don´t like AE keyboard mapper that much
I really searched the forum for a solution but didn't find any.... I have an English/Arabic hardware keyboard, the mail key (also language switch) does not switch the language, only launches outlook when pressed along with FN key, I can only type Arabic on the soft keyboard.....any solution?
WM 6.1
Stock Rom 1.19.415 Arabic enabled
Many views... no reply .... ???
Bump..........
language switch
hey i have the same problem with switching btw japanese and english i solved it by maping the change input to [ctrl + shift] then typing is the same as on the desktop it is a pain for the touch pro 2 bc there is no ctrl button but i just hit it on the virtual keyboard and then switch
thanks for your reply,
I mapped it just like you said (using Rhodium Keyboard Controller..thank you tarkim for this wonderful app) but did not switch the language...actually it did not do anything...
Hi,
How can i change QWERTY hardware keyboard to AZERTY (not layout in rom),k hardware changing ?
is there a way ? i need this to..
Hi,
After installing a dutch ROM, your machine only recognises "QWERTY".
It is easy to switch to "AZERTY" :
Physical keyboard (=hardware keyboard) : you need to install the cab-file.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5496980&postcount=938
Virtual Keyboard (= keyboard on touchscreen) :
When keyboard deployed, click the arrow next to the tiny keyboard onscreen. It will show you some options. From the dropdown menu, select the second from top item (which should be "Nederlands" in your case) and choose "Frans" instead. Unfortunately, by doing this, you will loose the auto-correction function for the Dutch language.
If somebody has a BETTER solution, I will be glad to read.
Have you tried the rhodium key controller. It is available here on xda. you can change any key to any function.

How do you install the cab file?
My girlfriend has a galaxy pro with azerty keyboard but after I flashed it the keyboard acts like a qwerty...will this cab file work fir me?
Hi,
I have a HTC TILT 2, (AT&T) Rhodium, with android last version FRX 07
How can I get accent characters (Spanish) on the physic keyboard, á, é, í, ó, ú, ñ, ??? etc.
Thanks,
Doesn't appear to be a layout for Spanish:
physkeyboard=rhod100_de
physkeyboard=rhod100_fr
physkeyboard=rhod100_it
physkeyboard=rhod100_uk
physkeyboard=rhod100_nordic
Perhaps IT would work? That's for RHOD100's tho, If you have a RHOD300, how does it have special characters? I thought all the ATT Tilt2's had US keyboards...?
Feel free to make one and make a merge request against the rootfs.
arrrghhh : Thanks for your fast answer,
My rhodium has a US keyboard, and was buy in US, I checked an is a RHOD300, but I need write on Spanish.
I want to keep the same keyboard layout, but get the accented characters with some of this option: double pulse, pulse length -long, or a key combination or other. Par example, on Windows Mobile 6.5 (Rom Energy) I use the app “rhodium Keyboard Controller GSM/CDMA v1.4” to remap the keyboard http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=554240
I mean, i get the accent characters by long press
a + long press = á,
n +long press= ñ
I will try the Italian (maybe is similar but doesn’t have same accents, diacritics, specially “ á “ and “ ñ ” ) option but my technical knowledge (and my English) is limited, so your advice is welcome
Thanks

Oh.
I don't know how this would be done... I would think Android has some native-way of remapping keys... But I'm not aware of any way how. Never looked into it.
In the short term, why not just use the soft keyboard?
Edit - did a little bit of googling and found this. Not ideal, I haven't found an app to do it yet.
Edit 2 - I can't find an app for the life of me. These might help tho.
