Very good news, guys!
I found how we can use our own country built-in keyboard using a ROM in a different language.
I have made the test with German, Greek, Spanish, French and Italian... and it works great! It's extremely simple to do it. You just need to change a value in the registry :lol:
You must edit the registry with any registry editor, i.e. PHM Registry editor and you must change change this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\QWERTY
Layout=123105 is the default value when you use a WWE ROM. 123105 is the value in decimal for 00020409... and 00000409 is the keyboard layout for the US keyboard in Windows
so if you change the value of "Layout" to...
Layout=132103 (which corresponds to 00020407 in HEX... 00000407 is the German keyboard)
Layout=132104 (which corresponds to 00020408 in HEX... 00000408 is the Greek keyboard)
Layout=132106 (which corresponds to 0002040a in HEX... 0000040a is the Spanish keyboard)
Layout=132108 (which corresponds to 0002040c in HEX... 0000040c is the French keyboard)
Layout=132112 (which corresponds to 00020410 in HEX... 00000410 is the Italian keyboard)
and so on...
In other words, as Layout is a dword key, you have to calculate the value in Decimal of "0002" followed of the last four digits for your Country, for instance "040c" for France. 0002040c in HEX is 132108 in decimal
I think many people will be intererested in this feature
Cab file for the Extended ROM
And for the froggies, I have created a cab file FRE_keyb_layout.cab available at ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel
you can put in your Extended ROMs (as I have already done), so your SPV M2000 will have a French keyboard after a reinstall
I could have also made the on-screen keyboard layout in French, but I prefer personally a qwerty keyboard (sorry)
PS: And don't forget to add the line:
CAB: \Extended_ROM\FRE_keyb_layout.cab
to your config.txt!

Means, "and for the French .... ".
Artz, actually most of French do not know about this nick-name. May be we (French) should travel more often to the UK. It's been quite some time since we last visited Hasting city in 1066 :roll: :lol: :lol:
in XDA2 Rom 2.20 there is no entry QWERTY.
What am I doing wrong?
same here... no qwerty entry in 2.20
German Keyboard Cab?
Can you make a GermanKeyboard.cab for the 2.20 WWE please?

New keyboards cabs
I have made a few new cabs for French, Spanish, Italian, German, Norwegian and Russian. You will find them at ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/Keyboards/
I only have tested the French, Spanish and German. In fact, I don't know how many types of different keyboards are available for the XDA IIs and in which Countries the XDA IIs is sold.
In reply to markimark and melino, if you have a "Blue Angel" device (XDA IIs, MDA III, PDA2K Evo, etc.) you should find the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\Qwerty key on the registry espacially if you're using a WWE ROM!!!
I'm using BA_WWE_BelDT_12200_557_10602_SHIP.exe from Dangaard (Belgium) with a SVP M2000 from Orange (France) which has an built-in AZERTY keyboard.
Pour Tanguy, oui, je sais bien... mais beaucoup d'anglais ne savent pas non plus qu'on les appelle "roast beefs"... mais, bon, je ne suis pas ni Francais ni Anglais, Monsieur! Je suis Basque (espagnol), meme si j'ai vecu en Angleterre, Russie, Suisse Allemande, Australie, Espagne... et j'habite Paris maintenant. Toutes mes amities, Tanguy
Thx, man!
But it is not working here in the end.
I now have this string in the registry with the right entry, but the layout hasn´t chanced.
It´s still qwerty, even after softreset.
Any ideas?
melino,
it's really strange. Just to be sure we're talking about the same thing: The on-screen keyboard will be in qwerty but the built-in keyboard should be in German.
Which ROM are you using exactly? Have you deleted any cabs from the extended ROM? Have you tried to use this patch ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/Qwerty_change_end_bluetooth_patch.cab ?
I'm using BA_WWE_BelDT_12200_557_10602_SHIP.exe ROM version (I have removed only the belgium operators configuration cab) and it really works fine.
Let me know if you succed.
Regards
I didn´t know the Qwerty_change_end_bluetooth_patch.cab and so I just tried it out.
What ever the sense of this the only change is to me was that grey bar on the bottom on the today screen.
But qwerty was the same... :-(
The search funktion gave no info to me where this patch was released, could you plz tell me to topic, maybe it helps...
merino,
please read this thread

forgot to tell you my rom: 2.20
This is the SOFTWARE KEYB or the HARDWARE KEYB? COz for the software keyb this is not new, On brighT there was long ago a topic on it, I am looking a solution for the Hardware one, I cannot stand this French ROM, must turn my 9090 back to english even if the hardware Key is still in ZAERTY
By the way resco keyb do it as well turn a QWERTY to AZERTY
Daimaou,
This is the hardware solution. The software keyboard (on screen keyboard) will remain in English but your retractable keyboard will be in French!
melino,
you cannot have a MDA III (SPV M2000, XDA IIs, etc) call Blue Angel but a XDA II (Himalaya or Andes) because there isn't any ROM 2.20 but 1.2200
kind regards
NO KIDDING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tks,
I have updated my MDA III to WM5. Is there a way to change the T9 input language? Are there no T9 settings like with WM2003SE? Thanks for your help
Hi!
This is also my question! Must of us use the new englisch Dopod ROM, but many people including myself do NOT ever write a SMS in English. I don't have a bulgarian T9 Dictionary, but I would like to switch to the german one? Where are the settings for it, these should be possible?
So my next question: Where are the proposed words kept? in T9 DLLs? I beginning ti hate this ROM cause I see proposed words only in english :twisted: Any idea? And please don't make me add all the words per hand... :lol:

Hello,
I used HTC Excalibur with an English keyboard, but now I gave the phone to my sister. My sister lived in Denmark and she need a Danish keyboard. Where can I find a Danish T9 for Excalibur? I've found some Danish T9, but not for Excalibur, and I've found some T9 for Excalibur, but not with Danish lang.
Can you help me, please?
