problem with sending textmessage

I've got a new problem with my pro2.
It seems that when i'm getting a textmessage and i write an answer... in the little box down the window you see on this picture: [click for image of window]...
it will send.. no problem... (to the phonenumber: +31612345678, thats good)
but when i then send another textmessage to the same person again, in the same box as earlier, and i don't got an answer yet the pro2 shows that the message is send, but when i look at the phonenumber its changed automatic. it must be +31612345678 but then it is 31612345678 without the +... so the message is not send...
how can i solve this?

NOt a real solution, but dial two zero's "00" instead of the + sign. Though it should work with the + character

Same here! I was wondering why I didn't get a reply from the message I thought I was sending...now it's obvious.
Need a hotfix FAST!
As a business user this is totally unacceptable!

I don't think that will help, and i'm not going to change all my phonenumbers, because the + caracter must work to.
i'll try later this day with one person.

Have you checked that your locale is set correctly and not on the shipped default (which is usualy US)

Hmm, that's all ok. So that don't caused the problem... any more solutions anyone?

The contact manager has an option to auto set the phone number.
If I (still my hermes for now) add this number 0612345678 my contact manager makes it: +31612345678
Maybe it's something with this settings of auto managing the number format. Don't give this solution much chance though

Hi i'm xperia user, with a rhodium ROM, the newest one Build 21051.1.6.4, and we (all users) have this same problem too. Even in prevorius rom version i had problem with it. The problem is in HTC roms. I think u neet to wait for a update.
Or u can ask user name Smaberg, i heart that hi solved this problem, but hi had to change some entries.

Thanks, i've send smaberg a private message. hopefully he knows the answer. strange problem!

Your buddy John might appreciate it if you edit your original message to remove his direct number from the forum.
EDIT: Hah! I'm dumb. I just noticed that it was a dummy number! I'll shut up now.

Hahahahaa, youre funny

hmm not found a solution yet! ... anyone else maybe?

Ah! i've got a reaction of smaberg! (It's for the X1 officially but i think/hope it will work to on the TP2, because it are both WM phones...) but i can not test it now...
my plan is to test it somewhere tomorrow (sunday)... i will post the results, and the answer here if i know more!

i've tested it, but the problem is still there.

I still have the same issue as well, weird no solution is available huh...

I've added a poll let's see how many people there are with the problem

you should notify HTC support - they really DO read the messages they get - describe it good, and you will get response.

How can i contact them? there website is not very clear about that

TMOUS Keyboard Fix

I can't find anyone that has posted one yet, but I have made one for all you that have one and have the screwed alt key! The registry file is attached! It is not a hack at all. Just a registry export that worked!
Enjoy
edit//Cab added to post.
edit2//Also, just an FYI for everyone, the TMO keyboard has the GBP and Euro symbols on the hardware keyboard, it just wasn't put on the key itself. It is the same keys as the HTC version for them. alt+e = euro and alt+r = pound symbol.
edit3//Make sure HLKM\Software\Tegic\eT9\Ime\KeyboardLayouFiles shows et9.rhodium.wwe.txt. Otherwise, the layout will still be messed up.

I think this should get stickied for a few weeks

If necessary. I am sure it will stay alive for a bit since a lot of us have the TMO version.
To be fair though, you get some of the credit. Your suggestion in that other thread is what made me do it. It took me about 1 hour of poking around.

Can any onecab this up for easy install? That would rock, changing values to match though reg editor does not work!

Just use Task Manager to import it. It worked for me.

Welcome to the wonderful world of modding your phone
Thanks but you are the one who did it.

Thanks! I have never used/done that type of stuff. I am just happy to be able to contribute finally.

Wow, I posted about this problem today and now their is a fix to it. You guys work fast and I didn't even get a chance to get use to the ctrl key that sub for the alt key.
Good looks!!!
EDIT: Confirming that it works! ....don't forget to reset because it won't work if you don't.

so what exactly is the problem with the tmobile us alt key anyway? i just got my tp2 yesterday and haven't really noticed a problem with it?

This is only an issue for people with cooked roms.

thanks again!!

Well my Rom is stock but I'll be sure to remember this if I flash a new one.

This fixes the alt key, for sure. But what about the shortcuts on the arrows? Those are still incorrect, for me. Is this a separate problem? I assumed it should be related, due to the fact that the shortcuts on the unlocked devices are different than the T-Mobile shortcuts.

The HSPL is out, now? We can now install cooked ROMs on the TP2? How did I miss this?

Yep, HSPL is out now. haha

Thread stuck whilst the topic is hot
Dave

Thanks Dave!

what exactly does this fix ?
my ctrl button doesn't function at all but I thought it's due to the PDAC hebrew support I have.
also FN+SYM doesn't ddo anything.
my TP2 is unbranded.

As noted by the thread title, this ONLY applies to the TMO (T-Mobile) US branded TP2. It applies to NO other branded or unbranded TP2 devices. It fixes the keyboard layout changes that were implemented on the TMOUS TP2. The Alt, ctrl, and a few other keys had some changes.
To fix your keyboard, flash back to the original rom, export the same reg key that is in the first post, and then apply that to the newly flashed rom.

AT&T Tilt 2 Keyboard???

Hi There-
Well, I managed to get one of the ROMs to install on the new Tilt 2 from AT&T but I have a small problem. I can't find a cab to fix the keyboard mapping problem. I found one for the tmobile version but no luck fixing the problem. So, I figured I would just flash back to the original ROM and wait for some folks to modify their ROMs to work with the Tilt 2 but now I can't find that either. Am I just not finding it in my searches or is it just not here yet.... any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Titl 2's just started landing in people's hands today. It's going to be a few more days until there is a cab released to fix it.

How much is the keyboard screwed up? Is it still somewhat usable?

It's not too bad, its in the format of the regular tp2. number keys on the top row and all that. Kind of nice to have actually,if I can memorize the keys quick enough I might leave it that way

I agree that it is kind of messed up. I bought a t-mo version, and I plan to sim unlock it and use it on att. I freaking LOVE this keyboard! I actually thought about checking eventually at htc part replacement stores to buy a stock keyboard, and physically changing the keyboard when I sell this one one and pick up a tilt2 (only b/c the t-mo can't pick up the att 3g frequencies).
Good luck finding your KB fix!

Dude, the finger keyboard is good enough to last me a few days until one of the wizards on this board comes up with the registry update. I am so happy with this phone so far it's crazy. The improvements to Office alone are awesome.

EDIT:
CONFIRMED TO WORK.
it's usually as simple as a registry setting:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\
CWSLayout=1
LayoutID=502
update: scockman found one more key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\IME\Keyboard LayoutFiles
07FF=eT9.Rhodium.Cingular_US.kmap.txt
if that doesn't work, I guess I'll have to play with it more when I actually get around to flashing my Tilt 2

Flash back to original ROM, export the keyboard settings using totalcommander or phm reg, then flash to custom rom, and import keyb settings.

i'm about to attach my .reg files from my stock tilt 2 rom. someone who has flashed their tilt 2 install them then soft reset and let us know what happens. also you might want to backup your HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\ just to be on the safe side.

Woo Hoo!! That fixed my issue, these were missing from the ROM that I was using "EnergyROM".
There is one other registry that everyone may be missing that needs to be set:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\IME\KeyboardLayoutFiles
07FF=eT9.Rhodium.Cingular_US.kmap.txt
After these were set I did a reset and everything is working.

Do you mind if i ask how did you get a tilt 2? I checked the att site and it is only showing on the business side called att and they said its not availalbe yet?
thks
J

I'm an AT&T Dealer and placed an order for 1 and got it. The dealers that order 20-50 won't get their's for a while because there is not enough to go around.
* I'm currently using the energy rom and the keyboard is off somewhat like the original tilt was when it came out. The number keys are off and most of the top row keys as well. Someone suggested to flash back to the original ROM but silly me didn't back it up. I assumed it would be here. I think I'm just a little too much ahead. I will; however, try the registry fix and see if it fixes my problem. Thanks for all of the help guys...

I guess I am a little confused as to "what" actually fixed your layout problem? Did you have to put ALL of those registry entries in or just the ones you added to the message? Anyway someone could put that in a .cab?
thanks!

Tilt2 KB reg edits - mostly good
I can confirm that:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\
CWSLayout=1
LayoutID=502
helps...the OK key and others along bottom row are still not right but at least the FN and Caps are back to normal (using energyRom). an edit of the Cingular_US.txt should help. I'll try that in a bit.
Using Adv Config to set Cingular keyboard doesn't work...had to reg edit to use Cingular_US as indicated above.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\IME\Keyboard LayoutFiles
07FF=eT9.Rhodium.Cingular_US.kmap.txt
I, too, wish i had saved Tilt2 keymap reg before my first flash.
Remember, takes both steps to get Tilt2 KB to 'normal'

Hey guys,
moved ya over to general...
peace,
Josh

Ditto can someone cab it up so I can continue to be lazy. Thanks

fire up Total commander, hit up the plugins --> registry, and then follow the structure to the specified containers. edit or add as needed.

I guess I'm confused because I can't seem to get the registry entries to work properly!

Here are all the relevant entries. Import them into your registry and reset.
Dot fred's registry editor makes it easier to just click and add registry settings.
And while I am at it, I attached the file to make hardSPL easy to run as well.

How to get to the INPUT panel in wm 6.5.5?

Delete the Redirect key under the registry [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Input]

same thing happened to me a week ago, took me 4 days, until I delete the Redirect key as mentioned above, and I got back my INPUT in SETTING!!
Good luck

Yea thats Microsoft hard at work. They are removing the Owner name, Input controls, and another one...
Even the owner name kills most applications since they base their software keys off of the owner name.

As you solved the Input problem for WM6.5 (Thanks a lot for that), maybe you have an idea why I don't see java icon under programs in WM6.1. When I try to install a java application, Esmertec appears (it seems java program is hidden somwhere) but java midlet is found somehow harmful or something and I get two option "Kill the midlet-or-NO". And my java applications cannot be installed successfully. I cannot install any other java program externally either. Any idea to solve the problem?

thanks +1 - touchpal uses it for registration and they have no idea as to an alternative method

ringtone limit on tilt 2

I really need to be able to play an extended ringtone and it seems the Blackjack II had a registry tweak to handle this. That tweak doesn't work on our TP2s tho.
I am honestly surprised more folks haven't inquired about this.

do a search on this forum for "NoRingToneLimit" - it is .cab file and it works.

I searched the forum and did not find any hits, so I did an advanced search which took me to the archives.
There is a reference to a fix for 6.1:
mikefordmustang.com/downloads/NoRingtoneLimit.cab
Can anyone confirm this works for 6.5?

Found this as well but I haven't tried it personally. Seems easy enough to test though if you want to give it a go.
- Go into HKEY_Current User > ControlPanel > Sounds
- Delete the key of FileSizeLimit
- Done, You should now be able to set any MP3 as your ringtone.

That is the same tweak I found on a google search that was said to work for the Blackjack II. There is no such entry for WM 6.5 on my gsm TP2.
I did add the entry, using a larger value, and it did not work for me.

I tested this on my gsm TP2 on WM 6.5 and does not work. It will only play 20 seconds of a lengthy mp3 file on local memory. Still looking for a tweak/fix!!

You might have already tried this, but did you search your registry to see if that key existed in some other location maybe? I have 6.1 or I'd go look myself...

You know, I did do a search, but it just occurred to me that I searched for files, not strings within the registry.
I am going to do a search on both FileSizeLimit and NoRingToneLimit as strings and see what it comes up with. Total Commander is proving to be invaluable right about now!

I do like TC and can't deny its swissarmyknife-like utility, but for when I just want to zip around in the registry, I like the look/feel of PHM_regedit better.

thx for the tip! i'll look into that ..

Use ceregeditor and browse your phone registry form your computer making it 100 times easier.

so I grabbed ceregeditor and yes indeed, it makes it sooo much easier to search/edit registry entries.
so ... my findings:
Installing NoRingtoneLimit.cab did put an entry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds:FileSizeLimit
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The default Value Data was set to 0 .. this did not work.
I increased the value to a high # .. i saw 10487200 as a possible value when I found the blackjack ii tweaks .. that too did not work.
Im guessing everything Im doing works just fine for WM 6.1 .. but nobody has figured out why it doesnt for 6.5. I hope there are others out there with more insight into this. I really dont want to go back to my old phone when I go OnCall this weekend!

It works on my AT&T Tilt 2 with 6.5 - Have Hallelujah Chorus (eleven minutes) as a ringtone.

well now i'm bummed even more!
i am going to uninstall the .cab .. reset .. and then re-install .. and reset to see what happens.
iv'e tried different things to come up with a solution and nothing appears to be taking: repeat notifications, filesizelimit, notificationlayoutnew.dll ... i get zilch on each!

wow .. 11mins!
well i am just so frickin' dissapointed in this thing now. i just cant fathom as to why a GSM model would be that much different than an ATT Tilt2.
I guess perhaps using one of the many available ROMs on this site could help? Any advice, anyone?

And that made all the difference!
It finally works!
I knew there had to be something weird about my setup that was causing this not to work for me. I was timing the length of the ringtone and while the longest was at 20 seconds, there were times when it was a little as 10.
I started thinking that perhaps something was intercepting or disturbing the process that killed the ringtone. I never thought to uncheck DISPLAY MESSAGE ON SCREEN.
This is what made the difference. Once the txt message screen timed out and disappeared, the ringtone died as well. Unchecking it allowed the ringtone/vibration to play fully. WHEW! I swear, of all the things to check last ... when will I ever learn!
