I really hate this process..
I want to get the deadkeys back and assign it to the fn+sym key.
Unfortunatly the key code of deadkeys on pro2 is not the same has other devices.
looking at the windows folder or the rom, we find the usual file responsible for the keyboard layout/keycodes. On this case et9.rhodium.www.kmap.txt and messing around with it, i can make the fn+sym do other things but i just can't find the deadkeys code.
Again looking at windows we find that the file eT9DeaKeys.txt is there !!
I'm just missing the dead key keycode to assing it to fn+sym instead of opening the symbol keyboard.
Any help/ideas ??
sorry for the noob question. What exactly is/are the deadkeys?
ctrl, shift, alt
no it's the function found on other devices like xperia , it's the "au" key.
like you press a + "au" an it gives you à or á.
The function is called deadkeys and the keycode responsible for that is 7A that the keyboard driver does not have.
I'm asked for help to try and get that back..
If "I" have success then i can map like fn+space (like on kayser) to intead of opening the xt9 menu to cicle throu other options.
Only time will tell..
Did you find any solution for this? I am also looking forward to entering accented characters just like on Kaiser.
Is there a way to change a button on the keyboard (for example, the mail button) to TAB?
That way, we could press TAB to move from form to form when filling them out in a browser.
But most importantly, we could now use the ALT + TAB shortcut to switch between apps when in landscape mode?
Any suggestions?
The up/down arrow keys move the cursor from field to field.
Alt+tab would be nice but which key are you remapping to be the Alt key?
I've also posted on a similar topic, and a solution seems to be to modify the keymap files in the Windows folder.
See here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=537818
The files are called like :
eT9.Rhodium.XXXX.kmap.txt
and for France, it is eT9.Rhodium.040C.kmap.txt. This was easy to find because it's the only AZERTY one, I don't know how you find the right one otherwise.
I tried for my "ç" problem (have "FN" + "c" give "ç"), and it works. I think it will work for "tab" instead of "message" (what a totally useless button...). You just need to know the "OX" code tab I think
On the way past, thanks to those you hepled me find this... Thanks to this, I can map many usefull buttons (as "FN" is free for about 10 keys, that gives me 10 free buttons to set).

I already have an ALT key as I lack a Fn key so I just need something for TAB

How do you change it to a shortcut to an application or a function like TAB?

The Tab key should be 0x09.
However, mapping Tab to the 'useless' message button does not work for me - anyone successful in doing that?

That's what I thought but tried mapping it and no luck on my end as well.

There is no function in Windows Mobile as "ALT+TAB", set up your vain. U have to find a task manager program, which is a sign shortcut, and list a task menu.

I remembered doing this when I had the HTC Universal. That device had both the TAB and ALT button which was what made it possible and why I wanted to replicate it.

Is it possible to remap the "OK" key on Tilt 2 with 'ctrl'? I think 'ctrl' is more usefull for a Windows Mobile device. Wondering if it can be done.
Thanks

Obviously you want the GSM version, just install the SDK then the keyboard app, reboot, hit settings -> system -> keyboard settings, pick add a key, push the key you want and then pick what you want it to do (emulate a keypress, control key, in your case) I use OK for window close and PTT for camera.exe myself

I use PTT for camera also, but I could do it from the ATT stock ROM.

I've read other posts too, I think a new keypad.dll (Tilt 2) would be great!
hey people, i've been searching for over two hours on how to map the "ok" button to do what it normally does...
i'm on energy rom right now, with everything necessary installed to map keys on my att tilt 2.
what action do i map the "ok" key to?
i've searched and:
i cant find "back to previous screen"
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4754390&postcount=75)
if you map it as close window, and you click the windows key and the ok, the windows key no longer works
(forgot where i found that piece of advice)
what do i do?!
and sorry if its been answered many times, i really cant find it!
EDIT:
FOUND THE SOLUTION, at the bottom of the page. WORKS FLAWLESSLY!
Funnily enough I had to search to see what you were talking about. I assume the OK key on the keyboard.
I can only guess the best mapping would be to the OK in the upper right hand of menus for programs.
What ok button? A hardware button or a software button?
on the att tilt2 theres an "ok" button between shift and home on the keyboard.
i dont know what to map the button to in order for it to work like it supposed to in the original rom and i cant find the solution anywhere.
Bottom row from left to right:
Tilt2: shift, OK, Home, comma (mail), space
TP2: FN, Mail, SMS, comma (SYM), space
Sorry, don't think that there is a solution for mapping the OK button yet. The best you can do is to map it to minimize the current window. This is one of the reasons why I'm switching to RRE's rom, as it includes the AT&T keyboard dll. I use text/email a lot with the keyboard out and want to be able to use the ok to close the message and go back to the message list. You can only do that if the original OK functionality is present.
best bet is to use this program to do so...works great!!

Hi guys
Any idea how i can do a cut, copy and paste function during editing of my contacts info? I tried to tap and hold on the selected text but no cut, copy and paste function is made available to me. Or is there any available freeware that will allow me to do this?
It's quite difficult not knowing or having this function for shifting the text between the fields as i need to re-type them out each time.
Thanks in advance for the assistance.
That's easy... ctrl+c, ctrl+v, ctrl+x. There is a reason that I LOVE my TP2 for having a Ctrl key, I use it all of the times. Contacts and Google Maps are two areas where the right click menu doesn't appear, and the keystroke shortcuts come in quite handy!
Jason
if you have a tilt 2, theres no copy and paste on the keyboard, i still havent figured out a way to map it to FN+C or FN+X or FN+V, but i just use swype onscreen keyboard to do it =X
You may could use "VitoCopyPaste.exe" to Cut, Copy and Paste. Just Google around. I also had it on my phone once.
You can use Keyboard Controller (link below) to remap many different keys. Since the Tilt2 doesn't have a control key, I suggest remapping the FN key+C for copy and FN+V for paste. You can allow keys to directly open programs and lots more - GREAT program. I can vouch for it working very well with the Tilt2.

Enjoy!
theres no function for copy and paste on the keyboard controller, or else i would have done that already, unless someone has a solution that i dont know about
Yeah why i didn't think of that - Ctrl + X, Ctrl + C, Ctrl + V
Thanks all for the help.
Cheers!
Jon
anyone have any idea to do this for the tilt2?
if you don't have the ctrl button, the "HTC People" contacts manager seems to have left out the popup cut/copy/paste menu on tap and hold of selected text.
but if you go to the windows contacts manager, the cut/copy/paste does come up. just either go to "More" within the HTC manager, or just start up contacts manually through the program list.
i actually prefer the windows contacts manager and have disabled the HTC tab.

Pick a key you are unlikely to want and map it is the Ctrl key then you can use ctrl x ctrl c and ctrl v

I use the Keyboard Controller on a Tilt 2 and have FN + C mapped to Ctrl -c (specifically, emulate key press, key 67 [C key], with the Ctrl box checked, send to OS). I have done similar with FN + X, & FN + V. Works great as copy, cut, & paste everywhere I have tried it.
I cant select ( highlight ) text from windows live messenger..
Also its very annoying to tap on the screen, and than select: select text, to be able to highlight and copy something.. is there anything i can do, to use it like htc kaiser... being able to select the text immediately ? without all those steps?

This works for me, I have been doing this since I got my Tilt2.
I have Z,X,C,V,A mapped. Very useful.
ctrl key functionality w/o need for ctrl (or Fn) key
I have found that the keyboard controller program also allows you to do this without having to use Fn (or any other two key sequence). What you can do is assign a long key press for C, X, V to serve as copy, cut, paste by emulating CTRL-C, CTRL-X, CTRL-V, while assigning the short key press (click) to retain the default key functions (i.e., c, x, v).
Of course, you can expand on this. I applied this method to create a Fn-key-free keypad. For number 1, a single click is still an apostrophe, but long press is number 1. While the built-in option to double-click Fn is definitely more efficient when you have lots of numbers to enter, my sense is that a long key press is more convenient when you have just a few numbers to input.
And, this method also works for undo (i.e., control Z on your computer can be long press z on your tilt 2). Which is a beautiful thing.
