Layout Keyboard

Hi Guys, i have a question...
If i flash my WM5 TyTN (Ita) to a WM6 English Version how can i do to have a right KeyBoard layout?
Thx

dont worry about the keyboard layout too much. just READ the forums and you will see that there are keyboard fixes for all of the known layout issues. some like the ROMs from Custel even allow you to change the layout through a built in application in the setting.

well thx for the answer... I search and i found not so much just: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=313814&highlight=keyboard+layout+fix
Is it the right way or does exist a .cab file?

Just install Shadowmites HTCustom1.5
It allows you to choose different kb layouts.

It does sound like you need to do some more reading though.

well there is always something to learn
Thx a Lot

Well on this file you told me to download there are a lot of intrestin language but NO ITALIAN

I'm sorry ops
I 'll see if I can find something.

Will this help:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Registry
Under the Heading:
"Restore local language support for sliding keyboard after upgrade to a different language ROM"

a program called "HTCustom" would help

Wha cab did you use?

No, just the one called : Italian Settings.cab on the first post of Skizzo's thread.

well yesterday and today i try 3 different ROM WWE and in all 3 i use that file for re-map the keyboard layout and all work great...every 3 times...
Bytheway what kind of TyTN are you using? I use a NO Brand Italian one...

Japanese WM6.1 ROM for X01HT

being tired of seeing too many protected roms floating around, i decided to make japanese wm6.1 cooking base files myself. it took me awhile, but i finally figured it out. i would like to share my experience of making a japanese wm6.1 rom for hermes here.
actually, it is not that difficult, and all i did was just assembling pieces from different official roms. so, i would NEVER call it my OWN rom or anything because every part of the original roms was developed by MS and HTC. (sorry, but i really think it's too funny many people, who know slightly better than others, put their names in the ver info, apply procection or whatever to their roms, and say "this is my own rom!" for something made out of other roms originally built by MS and HTC.... is this place for dev info sharing for similar-minded guys? donations?? c'mon!)
i will explain about the details step by step later. here's a rough tutorial.
things you need:
[tools]
Pandora Kitchen (thanks to mattk_r) for cooking and burning
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1364931&postcount=1
or
i prefer bepe's Extended Hermes Kitchen for WM6.1
http://rapidshare.com/files/88850555/HERMES_DEV_v2.1_Build_19199.rar
G'Reloc.exe as usual
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1524413&postcount=1
[roms]
bepe's kitchen (thanks to him!) for simple and working oem folder and xip (OEMXIPKernel only)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1177762&postcount=1
x04ht (japanese softbank diamond) rom for most of the sys part
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2998164&postcount=1
htc hermes official wm6.0 rom simply for os.nb as a template
http://rapidshare.com/files/46467733/HTC_TyTN_WWE_3.54.255.3_6275_1.48.00.10_108.exe
htc kaiser (or opal) official wm6.1 rom for dpi_96 files
http://rapidshare.com/files/157469239/Kaiser_HTC_ASIA_HK_WWE_3.34.721.2.rar
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=441689
s11ht (japanese emobile kaiser) official rom for 0411_dpi_96
ftp://htc-jp.com/EM/S11HT_firm_V2_6_881_0_JPN.exe
[basic strategy]
[oem]
1) bepe's oem folder is very simple and clean for cooking (some modifications are necessary in *.rgu files, tho)
2) replace OEM.cer by the one from x04ht rom
[rom]
1) basically, you can take OEMXIPKernel from bepe's xip or from htc hermes official wm6.0 rom
2) MSXIPKernel and MSXIPKernelLTK are from x04ht rom or whatever you want
3) use os.nb from htc hermes official wm6.0 rom just as a template
[sys] (tricky)
1) the base is opal sys. but remove all the language specific (0409) folders.
2) take the language specific but non-vga folders from x04ht, x05ht or whatever wm6.1 japanese rom (0411 folders not including dpi_192)
3) take language specific qvga folders (the 0411_DPI_96 folders) from s11ht
4) take .vm folder, packages.* in metadata folder, and service.exe in os folder, shell32.exe and shellres.dll in shell folder from hermes official or bepe's sys. (irda is not included in opal rom. take them from bepe's rom if you wanna use irda.)
[points]
1) don't forget to copy WinCENLS_Lang_0411 into your sys. otherwise, the device does not boot since WinCENLS_Lang_0411 is not included in xip.
2) if you take sys from any newer versions, taskmgr does not work since it is not signed by softbank. remove mxipupdate_taskmgr_shell_1.provxml in base_lang_0411. it's useless, anyway.
3) this method does not create shotcuts in windows\appbuttons. you need create those shortcuts with japanese names yourself to make the buttons work properly. (does anyone know how these shortcuts are automatically created?)
4) os ver info is stored in the original files. (read here for details: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1172925&postcount=1) you can change the ver info as you want, but i REALLY hate to see ver info with someone's name or some personally customized splash screeens. so, the ver info does not reflect the actual ver you take all the files from.
5) i don't think this works only with hermes but with any other qvga devices (you have to change xip part.) hope many other qvga device users can make (assemple?) their own japanese wm6.1 roms freely.
question:
i made a shortcut file with 14 japanese (2 byte) letters and put it in the windows directory, but the hermes did not boot. i changed the name to 13 japanese letters, and then it booted... are there any filename restrictions for east asian language files??

reserved for step-by-step guide

here is the japanese wm6.1 cooking base files for hermes
sys: 21014
xip: 21014
oem: basically based on htc oem
http://www.mediafire.com/?3almqggzvgy (OS.NB.payload is not included. place one in rom folder.)
sys: 20931
xip: 20931
oem: basically based on bepe's oem
others: commmanager and calc replaced for the touch looks
note: i did not modified the ver info in shellres.dll.0411.mui, and the ver info shown in control panel does not reflect the real os ver.
note2: this file is just for cookers. i will not provide the rom tuned up for my own use. i will not response to "please send me your rom" requests. (sorry)
link
http://www.mediafire.com/?2gfymtframj
you can use these files FREELY since i simply assembled them from the other roms. they don't belong to be from the beginning. (.VM is not included. take it from another hermes rom to cook it!!)
happy new year, and happy cooking!

Congrats and welcome to hermes cooking sir. if you need a copy of a unprotected rom of mine, just let me know, PM or post
Peace sir,
Joshua

Very big thank for you...

I'm Andy. Thank you very much, qtotter-san.
Lately I've been thinkin about changing my handheld (I'm using BA and MPx200 at this moment). But, despite my condition as a Japanese language student, I would love to have a Handheld powered by Japanese Windows OS. To buy Japan's handheld seems to expensive for me, so I decided to search for Japanese ROM first, then decide which one shall I buy.
I've been searching all the time for Japanese ROM (not 日本語化 ROM but 日本語版 ROM FILES), n finally, look what I found here, not only Japanese ROM, but Hermes WM6.1 Japanese cooking base (very big thanks ^o^). I've tried to search in xda-developers, and some other forum, but still unable to find Japanese ROM. I'd also sent private messages to Japanese developers here, but still I have no idea where to find Japanese ROM.
And now, I found this thread. This really helps me.
心から感謝を申し上げます。(kokoro kara kansha wo moushiagemasu)
Once again thank You very much, qtotter-san. I really appreciate your hardwork.

Opal/Diamond Dialpad
if you use opal dialpad with japanese wm6.1 rom, smart dialing stops working. i happened to find a solution while playing with my diamond. just delete the following reg key to make smart dialing work.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\PhoneKeyMatch]
"SmartFilterFlags"=dword:00000002
This entry is in the *.rgu of Base_Lang_0411.

Download won't start
Is anything wrong with the server?

Woops!
Problem solved by deleting temporary internet files

updated japanese wm6.1 base to 21014
i will update msg #3 shortly.

TouchFLO 3D versions and customizing

I have a HTC Touch HD which seems to be running TouchFLO 3D version 1.3.37395.0_1630.38. Now my question is what are version 2 and 3? Can I upgrade my version to a later one or not? Or do I have to use 1.3 with my Touch HD? And can I use the software provided in this thread; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493011 , to customize my TouchFlo 3D interface, but yet be able to revert back to the stock one easily?

I'm interested in this. Been using the Search function and Google, but I haven't been able to find CAB files for TouchFlo3D beyond the version as posted by the OP.

Yup, I think we dont have the cab for you install the Manila (TouchFlo3D) I need to get to know about upgrade ROM (wm6.1 or wm6.5) cause these Chefs will have the latest version of manila. Sorry to say that
In fact the manila included in the kitchen (ROM). It's more compatible with the ROM (less bugs).
So, try to research more mates.
Hope it helps

i wanna know which is V3 too.....which rom is using TouchFLO v3
but i see v2.5 is latest.........make me confuse

There is no TF3d 3.0
I read it also in some posts, but that isn right.
Version 2.0 is the "new" TF3d, which has a calender tab, landscape mode and much better integration, so it hides windows mobile better (Main TF3d from Diamond 2 and Touch Pro 2).
Version 2.1 is an updated version of 2.0 with some changed parts (You see it now in the most cooked Roms).
Version 2.5 Is a beta TF3d. You find it in some cooked Roms.

You are correct. There is a number of threads which incorrectly state manila V3.0. At present there is no such thing. Manila 2.5 is latest but is still full of bugs and issues which need sorted out by HTC before it can be used on a daily basis.
There is only way to change manila version, and that is to flash to rom with newer version of manila on it. You can not get manila in .exe or .cab to install to your device. Their was a few chef's who created roms with manila 2.5 on it but as stated earlier these roms where to full of bugs to be used daily so each chef has had to revert back to manila 2.1 for the time being.

Problem with Manila

To all brothers
I dont understand of Manila
Im using HTC HD, newbies here
i had try to read so many subject regarding manila in this forum
and try to download some programe that i need
but i found that there is nothing change with my phone
issit we need to install first a main file before install the add on?
by the way, whats is the different of the dusk manila and manila?
or maybe brothers can guide me in installing the manila when 1st usage
thanks a lot

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it sounds like you're trying to update manila? Maybe from the stock one to 2.1 or 2.5? If that's the case, then you have to do it by flashing to a custom ROM which has the new manila (there are no cabs/programs which will install a different version of manila).
Dusk is just a theme (skin) for manila. In order to apply it, you need the corresponding version of manila that is needed.
Hope this helps.

what is manila?

i am a new user using htc hd...i dont know what is manilaa.can someone explain 2 me about it and describe how to install it to the device.Thank You

Manila or TF3D is the standard user interface on the HTC roms. There are however different versions that are released as more development takes place.
The only way currently to get an updated manila version onto your device is to flash to a new rom with the latest version "cooked" in.

yea, as above, manila is basically the codename for touchflo, so in all the registries and files associated to it, manila is referred to, not touchflo. thats why it makes sense to call it manila (from a development standpoint)
