Caracters not Languge - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development

Ok!
This is my first post, but I’m a reader not a poster. For most Swedish people we are satisfied with WWE but we have this issue with ÅÄÖ, For keypad I have tried Ilodiom Finnish cab but that was not correct for SWE. Please correct me if am wrong.
For my earlier device Wings (thanks jockyw 2001 for your help and how to dump, rebuild, cook, flash and hardsbl) I know what to change to get ÅÄÖ thanks to the WINGS forum.
Could someone please tell me what files to extract and replace to get Swedish keyboard from original 193.413.3 SWE.
I think for Chiefs when you make Multilingual ROM the most important thing is to make it keyboard compatible not language because all people here in the forum understand English.
I have read most posts and used the search function and even created a very fast Swedish ROM for myself.
But I think in this forum many things is missing in the WIKI please!
Ok I am satisfied with my own created ROM but this could be so much better if we share our findings.
Thank you from a very old noob that created a very fast Swedish ROM from findings on this site.

Keyboard Layout Issue

I recently updated my HTC 621 using the CID unlocker and then the stock Windows Mobile 6 Rom. It works perfectly, except that the keyboard seems to be in a UK English layout instead of the US English layout. I've tried a couple of registry hacks to change the keyboard, but nothing seems to help. Anyone have any ideas?
I am retarded, I found what I was looking for in the upgrading thread. Please disregard, and throw rotten vegetables at me so that I am properly disgraced.
I encountered the same issue. Which thread did you find it in?

Just a cry for help in this thread, maybe someone will be able to help:
I've just upgraded to the official WM6 and don't have a spanish rom available.
Could someone upload or attach
eT9.Excalibur.0c0a.kmap.txt keymap?
I believe this is the correct one for my device and language (Spanish Modern Sort)

why you work on .hv files when you have the bepe's kitchen and all rgus you want, only have to compare the rgu from 6.1 with an original corresponding spanish wm 6.0 rgu.....
for muis, you have to translate into sys folder:
base_lang muis, browsing muis and all muis into ***_lang___ folders into sys
to do it, try with restorator 2007 (shareware)
in menus, dialogs and strings, compare them step by step with original spanish mui, with the wm 6.1 WWE, and overwrite the originals with the wwe, you now have double menus id into one, if there are corresponding in spanish and english, check if there are same voices inside, and delete the wwe, if not (if there is only the wwe) you have to translate it, in some hours of work, and if partecipate more than only a person, you can have all muis, all rgu and iniflashfiles.dat translated in spanish...
also for initflashfiles.dat and oemapps you can check them with original spanish 6.0....
I translated into italian, so you can tranlsate into spanish, or german or in every language you want.
Be not discouraged champion... to my this is escaped from my short brain, I don't also have little idea of English, but for what is here you have me
Ok. I axl have the same problem. I can make roms with old kitchen but I am unable to make then with bepe's & ervius. I don't know where I miss something but resulting roms don't boot.
We can try to put in common our researches, so if we are stopped at diferent points we can finish it up.
- I am using as a base rom FAMAN's 4.00 (for me the best spanish rom). I extract XIP from this rom.
- Then I take master bepe's WM6.1. I process it with buildos+package_tools-2.7.exe.
- Edit initflash.dat and check .hv's
- Build with buildos...
Rom doesn't boot at all.
solution found
I found a solution, and get a working ROM...
Is not the kitchen i use all of then, I think is the shellres.dll.xxxx.mui, i have modified it with restorator, i added the missing resources in my spanish mui, from the original working one. After this i delete the shellres.dll.xxxx.mui folder, and place the mui into the dump folder.
After this and after translate the registry and initflashfiles.dat into my language, and change all muis to my country code, the ROM finally boot.
Thanks Ervius and everybody for helping me so much... i have learn so much from all cookers in this forum.
Soon we will release WM6.0 and WM6.1 Spanish ROMS, stay tuned WM6.0 versión is close to finish.

New PROBLEM
Hi all, i´m close to finish spanish translation, but i have some problems.
1- MMS doesn´t appear in messaging, and Send MMS command in contacts options doesn´t work. What are the files related with this?, any mui?. I haven´t touch anything in registry but changed xxx_409 files to xxx_C0A to get files working with my language code.
2- Network Wizard or any cab for setting operator internet settings (GPRS Settings and WAP Settings) doesn´t work, it raise me a "database Error". What are the files related with this?, any mui?.
I know all these errors are caused by me in the process of translation, so in WWE original version these things works. Please Help me to find where is the mistake.
If i fix this two errors, i will be able to release a beta versión of my spanish WM6.1 ROM.
Thanks.

There are not packages, these features are included into the base ROM i`m triying to translate, i can´t separate into packages.
I´m working directy on the dump directory of the ROM, it must be some file i replace with translated one, or any reference in registry.

I am unable to make a bootabe of 6.1 . I made quite a lot from 6 with Faman, but I miss something in this one.
1.- Did you check inside the mui's to see if here is any reference to 0409?.
2.- There was a problem with the network wizard, check if operators.txt has first line null.

Question on cooking with an official rom (Language Related)

Hi gurus,
I have tried several official rom and I would like to know on how to I release the ULDR as Bepe had mentioned in his rom thread on the official roms.
i have just learn cooking and have managed to alter offical roms to my likings. but the storage space is just not enough on the official roms, even after cooking.
thus, can any kind chefs share with me on how to release more storage while cooking. I believe this would be relatively useful for all newbie cookers.
Thanks a million!

i am using the diamond kitchen posted in this forum.
kind of straight forward, like pressing 1 or 2 to cook or rebuild roms
You have to break it into steps, and stop after XIP merge with OS (just before buildOS)
This is where you can add, remove anything. Packages, etc.
i have managed to cook up a good storage space rom with the advice from the seniors here as well as the wikis.
but now i have another problem.
i have managed to turn one of the latest official WWE rom into Sim. Chinese. although, i have replaced all the wince.nls in the WWE rom to the asian WWE, but after cooking and flashing, it does not shows the chinese regions.
i have tried several ways but still couldnt find a way to solve this.
for replacing wince.nls in roms, is there areas which i need to look at, or files i need to replace?
btw, the cook WWE rom is entirely in chinese now on my device, the only left unsolve is the wince.nls.
one side track question, how do i disable error reporting? every now and then i received a pop up screen saying that certain task has caused an error ...
can anyone kindly help?
Ruff, if ever there's anything you don't know how to do with tools, just do it on your handset, dump and rebuild the rom. As simple as that.
So just disable the error rep and happy dumping.
^.^
i almost give up here.
i have replace the default.hv and user.hv with the one found in the CHT officlal rom but still, my Cooked WWE rom is still unable to initialise the asian wince.nls ...
what am i missing here?
can any kind soul shed some light?
2nd issue> connectionsetup keep returning an error in the first boot. how do i stop this?
hi all,
thanks for everything.
i just found out why the wince.nls is not used correctly.
after replacing the os.nb in the ROM\ folder with the os.nb from the offical chs rom, it works.
although, i dun understand why but it works now. chinese region is selectable.
i also found that the temp\dump_XIP is practically useless, as the kitchen build os without using it at all ...
guess i still need to figure out more stuff manually and stop using the CMD script. it may be the CMD scripts that is set to extract xip from os.nb when cooking rom. thus, rendering the dump_xip not being used.
thanks. if there is any advice for me, please kindly let me know.
i love XDA and thank you JugglerLKR so much for the kitchen.
Hi ruffruff,
Could you please give me any advice on how to change the OS language ? I had some translation experience on the htc wizard but it was a nightmare. I see it seem easier on diamond roms. It would be great If I could change some of the "plates" cooked on here in Italian. I really hate having the phone in wwe.

hi smogdragon,
i believe you already have a kitchen at hand.
if so, you will need to find a italian rom first and dump the rom. after which, save the dump. then find the WWE rom which you like and wish to change it to italian. dump the WWE rom and replace all the 0409 packages and files to your italian packages and files which you have dump earlier.
cook the rom and flash.
finally, i have everything working out nicely.
ram available after first boot is still not as much as the senior cookers here.
i have 2 requests and hope that some kind soul or seniors can help me with:
1) Can anyone release to me the correct backward compatible netcf3.5 for rom cooking?
2) Can anyone release to me the 20270 XIP and teach me how to port it to my cook rom?
thanks and hope that some kind soul can assist me.
I see Nothing is changed. DO you replace all the files by hand ? Or have some kind of automated procedure ? The problem for me is I've not seen any .93 build in italian yet so I don't know where to find the files without messing the build.

u dun really need the exact build for the italians mui files.
just find an available italian rom and extract all the mui files out.
in english rom, replace those 0409 folders and files with your MUI files by HAND. hehe, no pain no gain ...
do more reading on the forum. i am no expert. like you, i am also a newbie/noob in rom cooking. just trial and error. i too need guidance from the expert but in the meantime, when they are not responding, you have to DIY...

Hi,
I'm trying to cook my own rom to convert the official Russian rom into english.
I've a quick question about the replacing the 0409 folder.
I'm going to be going from 0419 folders (russian) to 0409 (english), do I delete the 0419 directories and just add in the 0409 ones, or do I have to delete the 0419 folders and then rename the 0409 to 0419.
I'm guessing just delete the 0419 ones and stick in the 0409 instead, but want to make sure.
Is there anything else I need to do. I guess I'm looking for all the 0419 folders in the \OEM and \SYS directories?
Does anyone know if this will get around the region lock on a Russian Diamond?
Plus is there anything else I will need to do?
Do I have to do anything with XIP, that's something I'm really not sure about?
Cheer

Diamond ROM Cooking questions

Dear All,
After messing around with the tweaks here on the forum, I wanted to build my own ROM.
I want it to be:
-Fast (With the known registry tweaks)
-Stable
-Graphically nice
-With the apps I like
-To have Dutch language, with an extra WWE-XT9
-With the latest OS version (.721)
My plan to do this is:
-Get a good (modded-) BaseROM (I have SkippyCentraal 2.8 in mind)
-Remove all unwanted programs
-Exchange the OS.nb (128Mb, .273) with the extracted OS.nb (.721) from a different (non-Dutch) firmware
-Cook it together and flash it to my Diamond
-Make registry changes
-Dump my own (cooked and tweaker .721-) ROM
-Compile again
-Post it here ;-)
Is this just the way it works? I have just read Lolek47's Tutorial Thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=413782
and it seems that simple?
Please advice...
Thanks in advance!
BR Bart
The Netherlands
When I saw the tutorial I thought it is simple. But when really doing it, it is not that simple: my cooked ROM's (so far all of them) aren't even starting up. Hangups all over the place.
My advice to you is: find a good kitchen and just do it. Eventually you wil cook a decent working ROM. But don't expect to do it in a few days (like I did)
BUMP!
ive got the same plan as burdie!
But just in the WWE language, somebody knows a good tutorial?
would really like it!
yourz,
ruubs
I can offer some advice, coming from cooking on a Kaiser:
I think everyone would like to make a ROM with all those things listed While it may not be impossible, it may take quite some time tweaking it just the way you want it
1. You can't use any ROM as a base ROM unless it is chef-friendly. This means that all the .dsm and .rgu files are included. If they aren't, I'd recommend starting from scratch on the latest or most stable base ROM
2. Removing programs should be easy, because all the Diamond's are organized in .dsm files instead of all being dropped in the OEMAPPS folder like the Kaiser
3. I don't really see the point of having a WWE XT9 dictionary with a dutch ROM, care to explain. Also, what are you trying to do with replacing the OS.nb?
4. I'd not recommend dumping the ROM off your diamond then compiling it. Why would you go through all that trouble when you could just make the registry tweaks you want and then cook it up?
i'd be glad to elaborate on any more of these or answer any other questions you have

changing t9 language

Hi there,
I'm running Tom's Oops Black-ROM on my Artemis, and I absolutely love it.
I just have one question, I'd like to change the T9 language to dutch. Is that even possible? I;ve searched this forum and Google, but all I found were some references to registry-keys that don't exist on my Artemis. I think it schould be possible, because some claim it was done, but I can't seem to find a forumpost or website that has a correct how-to for this.
I just want to change the T9-language. For the menu's etc WWE is just fine for me.
sms t9 language update .. go seach for a .cab files in forum
