I have searched and searched for the Norwegian language on my X1, keyboard and dictionary on the Norwegian, because I want to use the keyboard, we have extra letters as "æ" "ø" "å".
hope someone has found a solution, or can create one as soon as possible.
This is something that is very important to me in the job context.

Hi Losty,
I assume that you have a Norwegian hardware keyboard in the first place.
- If you are using an non-Norwegian WM version then you will have to do a registry change to use æ,ø,å on the hardware keyboard.
Either use Total Commander (http://www.ghisler.com/pocketpc.htm) on your phone, or run an editor from your computer via ActiveSync, like the free CERegEditor (http://ceregeditor.mdsoft.pl/).
Quote:
In the registry, navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD
Change the CurLan g value to match your language:
English: 409
Norwegian: 414
(Make sure you edit the value in hex)
- I don't think you can add the Norwegian dictionary to a non-Norwegian Windows Mobile version (anyone please correct me if i'm wrong) but you can still add words to the dictionary by typing them in as you go.
The original dictionary file is not known yet, and there are no editors avaliable either. I can't seem to find anyone who has successfully solved this issue.
The custom word dictionary file is \Windows\ "compimeh.0409.dat"
The custom dictionary in a Norwegian WM should be "compimeh.0414.dat"
I restored a copy of the "0414" from a Norwegian WM6.1 backup and replaced the original "0409" English one. I still get english word suggestions but at least my originally added words (from WM6.1 Norwegian) pops up now.
- Well if you want to set the WM language to Norwegian AND use a custom ROM, you are probably best off using something like itje's Touch-IT Xperience 21046.1.6.3 (Norwegian).
If not then you can set part of the OS (day naming, calendar, clock etc) to Norwegian by going to Settings->System->Regional Settings.
Cheers

hello, can eney body pleas explain to my how i setup so i get Swedes key layout on my t-Bord agen? eney reg key i need to Chang?.
i haw tested
Go to hklm/software/oem/qwerty/layout/
make sure the hex value is 20409, you probably have 40409.
recommended of crosswind
but it don't help when I'm trying to get Å i get noting, when i try Ö i get arrow down and when i try Ä i get =
im using Windows Mobile "XDA Live" 0.10
@Kinky:
20409 gives you the default US layout. If you want Swedish layout you have to set the value 20414 (hex) for this parameter. This is effective at startup so a soft or Russian reset is required. Russian reset is better as it guarantees that the registry changes have been saved to Flash disk.
Hello. Is this trick for software keyboard or hardware keyboard? I would like to get the norwegian keyboard, but no luck so far.
@BrumBrum74:
20414 is a Nordic QWERTY layout, i.e. the hardware keyboard layout for Finnish, Swedish, Norwegian and Danish. It contains the characters 'å', 'ä', 'æ', 'ø' and 'ö'.
isnt there a file called P_Nordic_keyboard in extended rom for that? and to use swedish in software keyboard you use skandinavisktastatur5.cab. You can DL here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1150091&postcount=97
There is norwegian softkeyboard in skandinavisktastatur5.cab to.
I have installed the cab file on my norweigian Tytn, and it works perfectly with Windows Mobile "XDA Live" 0.10.
shark1 : what about hardware keyboard?
The software keyboard works fine.

What program do you use to change the values?
I was searching for a way to add the Dutch language to the B&B 4.1 ROM of Tom.
I saw in the thread a lot of people where searching for this so i made a little howto
First of all i need to thank the guys from who i have gotten this here in xda (search & find):
- ctibor
- hiblopp
Well here we go:
Code:
1. Copy T9DutchLdb.dll to \Windows folder of Artemis.
4. Edit the Artemis Registry in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\IntelliPad
a. Incerease by one the value of the "LibraryCount" dword (in my case from 10 to 11)
b. Created a "Library10" dword with the value of 8. (This is for the Dutch language).
Soft reset and you can use the dutch language in Phonepad!
If you want to use another language not provided you must copy the appropriate T9<language>Ldb.dll to the \Windows folder.
AND
change the Library10 value to the value for your language.
These are the languages i found in another thread:
7=Danish
8=Dutch
9=Finnish
10=Hungarian
11=Norwegian
12=Polish
13=Romanian
14=Slovak
15=Swedish
I have added the dutch language file for people who want to make the change!
Hi RikP just did your settings and it seems to work fine thanks!
Do you know also a way to get the keyboard to recognize dutch words?
(or do I have to wait till i typed them all )
Thanks for the guide!

Did a quick search and found this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299036
Does it fix your problem?
T9
A better method would be the easy one . First you have to copy your t9 file directly in windows folder. Than select phonepad as input method (click on the little arrow beside the keyboard on the bar) and select Options... Input Method: Phone Pad. Select Options... Languages tab... Database... and select your language.
For t9 DLL's i downloaded t9languages.zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=290007.
I added Romanian in my phone and works great.
PS: Sorry my english, hope is allright.

If you're talking about hardware keyboard, look at the Hermes Wiki or install Advanced Configuration Tool by Schaps.
Is this corectly i must only change the registry to use German Hardware Keyboard nomore files needed
Great Thanks
Restore local language support for sliding keyboard after upgrade to a different language ROM
This has been reported not to work, see below for another hack
You need to create Registry value of name "Locale" and type of "String" and data of "Localization ID" within
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Keybd]
Localization IDs:
German = 0407

no. you have to read carefully the wiki. you will see there that you have to create it in
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty]
the name of the key is Layout
the value (hex) of the key is 20407
do a soft reset via switching the device off (long button press of the on/off button) as it keeps your changes. otherwise you will loose your changes.
Thanks that works fine
this CAB does the registry entry for a german keyboard and installs the file (\windows\sym.0409.txt) for the german umlauts (that you get ä first and not á when you switch via dot + space)
Vielen Dank
Hello,
i've installed the rom HTC HERMES_CE OS 5.2.19949 Build 19949.1.2.0. and your tool doesn't work with this rom. Do you know what I can do to have the german Umlaute (äöü)?
Thanks a lot.
Greetz.
edit the file \windows\sym.0409.txt yourself. it is very easy.
have a look into it and you will see what i mean.

Goto the following registry entry
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty]There is a key called 'Layout' and it is in Decimal.
The suitable value for German Hermes keyboard is 20407 (132103 in decimal). =qwertz
Thanks for the posts. I installed the rom, then I installed the tool of stan23. I looked into the registry and the value is 20407. When I want to use the hardware keyboard I can't write a "ä, ö, ü" not even an "á". I can't understand it.
check the following:
- is the file sym.0409.txt still there (maybe you have deleted it?) and have a look into it.
- is the value of the reg.key 20407 HEX
- when typing: make sure you press "a" then "dot-key" then "space-bar".
if this does not work, hard-reset.
if this does not work, try a different rom
Hello !
I just bought a HTC Touch HD. I often need to write in russian. I generally use the built-in Phonepad keyboard and T9 for french and english. Spanish, german and italian are aslo available. How can i add russian language there ? I would need T9 and also cyrillic letters on the phonepad instead of latin letters.
Is it possible so far ?
Thanks for your advises
Here it is on narod.ru service:
rus_keyboard_TouchHD.zip
By the way there are keyboard, dialer and letter search stripe for contacts in russian in the archive. You can install all of it separately.
Does it add Russian T9?
does it have en/ru switch?
Thanks
SDK
BTW this installation requires the SDK rights. I did have it as cab. I'll post it as soon as I find it ...
[upd] http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=437307&highlight=sdkcerts
BUT it does not help.
no permissions to install...
any ideas?
Cheers
Yes, you can change keyboard layout.
Also, you don`t need those SDK rights to install it -100%. You need to kill some process in memory to install it successfully - SIPGT_app.exe. It works well for me.
Maybe this link will also help you.
Thanks, i will try this
I'm currently running Macadam 1.2, simply because it seems to be one of the few WWE roms around that has the "complete" eT9 and Keyboard collection (personally I want WWE because of the block recognizer, but I still want Norwegian eT9 and phone keypad, for when I'm not using the stylus).
However, my brief exposure to 6.5 (bsb) left me wanting more of that. 6.5 is simply faster and better looking, TF3D or not. The problem is that since ezinput was cooked in with only US keyboards, it cannot be simply updated with additional keyboards/eT9. It simply doesn't work.
So, this has sent me trawling through the threads here looking for a 6.5 build that either allows me to install keyboards/wordlists, or has what I need preinstalled. Only rom I've found so far to be close to pre-made for my taste, is 6.1-based (macadam).
Any of you seen any better solution?
//Svein
I do not fully understand your question, but I also tested bsb 6.5 Rom...
Now I have udk's 6.5 Rom and there are additional T9 languages included.
So "udK_Syrius_WM6.5_BETA2_WWE" contains the additional languages.
Ok, I'll try that.
Thanks for the help!
//Svein
Alas, the udK rom only contains the English, French, German, Greek, Italian and Spanish languages. So, close but no cigar.
//Svein
You're right! I'm sorry about this...
But when udk includes this additional languages it might be possible to install other languages or?
if i remember well i just deleted the language files so you just need to add the corresponding language file (.lbd) you want to \windows folder.
I upload you the ones that are inclued with the original 2.03 rom.
If you try, tell me if it works please

You remembered incorrectly.
(The files were already present)
However, enabling them in the registry (the keys were missing), and then selecting the correct language to type SMSes in, simply made the phone refuse to allow any input at all, so it seems something more is missing. Maybe it's just that something needs enabling, but I'm fumbling blindfolded here.
//Svein
Let me know when you figure this out, Svein!

I have tried the same on other roms. The files are in place and the registry keys are correct, but the phone stille refuses any input.
If you find a solution please let us know. I need the danish input
