HTC S620 (Excalibur) and T9...

Does anybody know a way to install T9 or the newer version from the Dash on the S620? I really like the word-completion feature of my other smartphones and PPC's.
Thanks!

we'll probably have to wait until someone extracts the extrom of the dash rom

Careful what you wish for

why did you buy the S620 if it is to put T9 on it?
The only benefit of this smartphone is the full qwerty keyboard, it sounds a bit strange to want to restrict yourself to the numeric pad to type your messages?

It's actually the newer xT9, you're not restriced to the numeric keys -- it predicts as you're typing words with the qwerty keyboard. Future versions might be more useful, but I find it more of a hinderance now. There's no way to configure it or edit the dictionary, it kicks in when you don't necessarily want it to and memorizes passwords, as well as showing them while you're entering them. Where ever the dictionary resides, mine is full of typos and passwords. Would be nice if you could uninstall or just shut it off. You can press ALT then SPACE and switch to just letter entry, but at some point it'll come back...

I understand that T9 is directed more towards standard phone keyboards, but I use it on my Hermes all the time. When typing a long email, the word completion can save time.

T9 dictionary edit
I am super annoyed by wrong words being added to the T9 dictionary!
I tried using the msT9Ed.exe, but it seems to not find the correct file.
I did find a file called "eT9Cdb.cdb" in the Windows folder, but don't know if this is the right thing to edit.
Anyone found something lately to edit the T9 dictionary?

[cab file] WM6 Simplified Chinese patch for Hermes

Original released at PDAFans (http://bbs.pdafans.com/thread-333961-1-1.html) by 午木.
Keyboard layout is following Japanese model X01ht, so I guess for other models you will have to manually fix the registry. Not sure how to do that though.
Internet and MMS configuration for China Mobile are added, can be removed manually. In fact I had them removed as I am living overseas and only need my Hermes to display Chinese properly.
There is no Chinese input included in this software.
Been using it with both XDA Live and Black Edition, works fine for both.

Good jobs mates,
Do you have Big5 one?
Thanks,

Not at this moment, you may want to try some Taiwan PDA forums for that.
The majority at PDAFans are from the Mainland. Hence what ever you get there are most probably in Simplified Chinese.

Alternatively you can always use the latest WM5 firmware released in Taiwan which is in Traditional Chinese, it includes Taiwan style Chinese inputs as well, of which I don't really like.

I cooked myself a rom that has CE-Star (Big5 displaying, PinYin input, Hand Writing input and Cantonese Input)...works pretty well...except one little bug I still need to figure out was the hand writing input part..can't do full screen, but hand writing in a "box" type has no problems.

This is the registry key that needs to be changed for those with different keyboard layouts:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty
There is a key 'Layout' (in DWORD, hexadecimal) that needs to be changed to one of the following:
For default English layout: 20409 (132105 decimal),
Chinese layout: 20404 (132100 in decimal),
German layout: 20407 (132103 in decimal)
Thanks for an efficient way how to show Chinese characters

After I installed this font in softbank x01ht. the japanese input can not work. I thought there may be some problem with keyboard setting, I changed HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty to 197649(japanese keyboard setting), however it does not work!

Chinese Display Problem
Hi Guys,
After i installed either the CE-Star or the Chinese Font Support Cab on WM6 English Ver, the Chinese character both looks very light and small (in contacts, words, dictionary software, etc). It really does not look good compare to my previous WM5 + CE-Star which is not installed by myself. It looked very clear, solid and smooth.
Anyone knows how to fix this problem?
Thanks a lot.

Just disable ClearType. may get better.

VOW, It really works!

Just Need China Mobile Network Settings
I already have a cooked rom that has fonts for simplified Chinese, so I just need the China Mobile Network settings. After installing this cab file, it conflicts with Ce-Star input through pinyin. Can a helpful cooker pls extract just the china mobile network settings and create a cab file for me.

I'm having an interesting problem. As soon as I install the cab that holds the actual Chinese character support (at least, I think that's what it holds) calles ChineseSG.cab I do indeed get chinese characters on my WM6 Artemis. However, this install completely disables my ability to read and write text, email and mms messages. When I try to read or write a message the screen just becomes white and un-editable. Anyone else got this problem and might be able to help me fix it?
-edit-
I tried the other package, the one that started this thread Chinese.Support.Song.cab and it gives me the some problems. In message overviews of for instance my inbox I can see the content of text messages, both Latin and Chinese characters, however as soon as I open a message to read it or write a new one the screen is just empty. I have the buttons at the bottom, but no text appears.

Yes you are right. After installed the Chinese.Support.Song.cab into WM6.1
The sms will not run or displayed properly. I do have the same problem. If you uninstall the Chinese.Support.Song.cab again. The problem still remained the same. Unless you do a hard reset. However, after the hard reset I installed CE- star have no conflict with WM6.1. The sms work perfectly and I can read chinese even in Window Media Player or Audio Manager.
Oh Ya. Try SMS Delivery FIX by Saman It's work after you activated the setting. All the message can be see.

Hi,
I installed your chinese font to my ipac 100. However my keyboard backspace and left right arrows don't work any more.
Also in Messaging can't see emails...
was wondering how I could restore these funcionts... I would really appreciate it.
I uninstall the cab file, but those functions are still messed up.
Thanks

Can someone help me out on installing just a Chinese font on my HTC At&t tilt? Lets pretend I am a complete idiot and know nothing. I just need to be able to see Chinese fonts when they come in on text messages so someone can translate them for me.

have a look and see if its what you need

Heb for Dia
You can buy Bi Directional Heb lang support from either:
http://www.pocketpc.co.il ("official" Dia Heb Support with localized original SIP)
http://www.wince.co/il (generic Heb Support for WinMobile 6.1)
http://www.paragon.com (generic Heb Support - basic version)
No free rides as it is not only about adding a font, but also implementing a RTL engine, actually a Bi-Di one to allow RTL/LTR.
If you don't mind reading "mirror" just copy Tahoma.ttf from Windows to PPC Windows Fonts Dir.
This kind of covers all alternatives available..

sorry m8, this time you missed. the post is irrelevant to what our poster needs we are blessed with a language that not only has a very, very strange fonts and alphabet (no vocals, for example) but it also written from right to left.

Is this suitable for someone (such as myself) who needs only to read emails and SMS in Hebrew. Would prefer all OS menus and other functions in WWE and L -> R format.

well, if you just wanna read and write sms, and you dont care the hebrew being reversed (םכל םולש), then just copy tahoma.ttf from c:\windows\fonts\ on your pc to \windows\ on your ppc, and save the 250 and the slow down of a hebrew supporting device.

that didn't work for me.. and btw the PDAC thingi needed a license..
so anyway. if someone has a good solution for just getting the support of hebrew, I'll be more then thankfull.
-iris-

I thank you very much for the quick fix with tahoma. However, what I think is quite strange is that only some of the fonts are displayed correctly while others remain as cubes (I mean on the same website, like ynet or haaretz) . (and strange enough the direction is OK!). So is there a fix for that? Do I maybe have to change something in the registry? My Device is Xperia, with WM6.1.
Any help is much appreciated!

At first I bought the PDAC version, and I was disapointed that it really slowed down my diamond. I also need Hebrew support only for reading sms,emails, and maybe some web browsing to hebrew websites.
In the link is a hebrew version that does exactly that. It even has a hebrew keyboard built into the diamond SIP changer (you pick Italian and it changes to the Hebrew keyboard)
Check it out.

Hebrew Support for native HD Keyboard

Hi,
I've done some work on the keyboard cab available on the diamond forum and adapted it to the touch HD.
I've also addressed some issues that the diamond version suffers from.
Here's a list of what's been done:
Version 1.00:
- Graphics for Compact Qwerty & Phone Keypad have been recreated to accomodate the HD
- Landscape mode integrated into the cab
- Fixed kdb files for Full Qwerty, Compact Qwerty and Phone Pad
- Hebrew doesn't replace Italian anymore! Instead, it is added above Italian
- Hebrew-related files and registry keys are named properly with the correct codes and names and according to the convention in other language-related files.
- T9 works partially. It will learn the words you use and will suggest according to that. Unfortunately I couldn't find a compatible t9 dictionary (and believe me I tried!)
Installation instructions:
1. Download the attached CAB
2. Copy to your memory card via ActiveSync
3. IMPORTANT: Using Schap's Advanced Task Manager (or any other capable program), kill the process SIPGT_app.exe
4. Run the CAB
5. Soft reset
I've tested this with a UK 1.14 ROM and the free hebrew support.
I do not recommend installing this alongside Eyron (didn't try) as it also attempts to modify the native keyboard and would probably conflict.
Congratulations you have a (almost) native HD hebrew keyboard!
For tactile feedback (ala Eyron) I recommend installing snailslug's great TouchResponse (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=450256) you can configure it to work only when the keyboard is open and the stylus is in and it provides very good feel without slowing down the device.
On the T9 front, I'd be happy if anyone could help me out. If you could get me some hebrew ldb dictionary files from ANY phone with T9 it might help me decipher this evil proprietary format.
I'd like to thank Alex for the original diamond cab and also nir36 and everyone who contributed to the development of the free hebrew support.
(Note that the attached cab is provided as is and I take no responsibility in case your device bursts into flames.)
Cheers!

Thanks!
how do you change from hebrew to english? there is an option to do it with the ABC->T9 button? I'm using the txt files from Eyron mui.cab to replace the Italian in my device but it seems to have some kind of bug when i'm replacing it from english to hebrew - the kbd will stuck for 5 minutes every time! and there is no half qwerty or phone pad option...
I'll try your version soon and will report back to you.

Good job!
I'll try it out today and let you know how it works.

tnx very much !!!!

Please post your skins.

Hi. just checked your files - great work!
I used to extract the files from Eyron cabs and use them on my device, but it was good only for the full qwerty - and it replaced the Italian on my device, your solution is much better.
and now - for the T9 thing - it works only in half qwerty and phone pad modes, not in the full qwerty mode.
any way - great work. you made a great solution for the free-hebrew community

*Big* thanks. Works perfectly!

ROM question: how to add a language? (please help)

I've got my HTC Touch pro2 early, by not waiting for Norwegian release date (4 july).
The touchflo is english, and I like it that way.
The keyboard layout does not include norwegain "æøå" letters.
The spellcheck/XT9 lists I already have are: English, French, German, Italian and Spanish.
I would like to have "Norwegian"
where are the settings/files i need to add, in order to fix this ?

Might be worth having a look in the blackstone forum for their language packs and just try it on the TouchPro2, should work in theory.

I tried to change my hw keyboard layout and I have been able to have "è" and "ù", no way to have "ì", "ò", "à": keys simply do not work at all...
As far as software keyboard is concerned, I believe that you should change sip.

nicelad_uk : thanks - I assume you mean this post ?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3304868&postcount=5
I installed Norwegian language, and it works becuase it's auto-selected, but does not show in the language selection list so after choosing English, I must reinstall it if I want it back.
It's a spellcheck and XT9 list, it does not influence the soft-keyboard layout, or the kayboards special characters list.
