Hello, my dear fellow desireans! ^^
I thus justly updated my German ROM desire to 2.2 and me Russian keyboard is now gone Ahoy! Before i was able to switch between Russian and English where now English or voice command symbol resides.
Any suggestions on how to get my old keyboard back? i don't use voice to send sms at all...
Image 1
Its the one with the mike on it (my one also says eng or en) beside the hide keyboard button, bottom left(screen not from my phone).
And this is what it used to look like:
Image 2
I don't think it was custom as i can not enable it. my locale does not have Russian how ever my phone is in Russian. I also installed anylocale that still gives me the keyboard in English.
Any ideas?
Hi All,
Updated the with DefroST ROM, it perfect but I need to type/write chinese, please anyone have the HTC defaulty Chinese SIP? Handwriting and pinying. Thanks.
have you tried pulling HTC_IME.apk from a LeeDroid rom and pushing it into your device?
I think that might work.
Thanks.got it.
Hello All Experts,
my HTC Desire Z was bought with a Netherland/Belgium Firmware but i operate it in german Language. It came therefore with a AZERTY Keyboard Layout which would't be a problem if i was able to change the prediction language of the hardware keyboard typing to german. But the problem is that this is only possible for french and english in the installed OS.
I read a lot of posts talking about the following solutions:
1. Change Hardware Keyboard Mapping (Still prediction missing)
2. Run some other firmware (Not sure if original firmware or overclocking is done to that firmware)
My Questions:
Is there a possible way of adding german spell prediction by a file to the system? If the mapping is only a file this should be possible.
Can someone point me to the original german 1.72 firmware which is still able to be updated (german delivery OS - without any modification).
Thank you all

Unfortunately I don't believe without a custom ROM and / or a third party software this is possible to get working.
Looking online it seems like most HTC Android phones have a missing profile in the HTC Bluetooth Deployment. You could always look into installing a custom ROM that supports this?
Hope this helps
Thanks ashleyayling...Kind of halped but didnt cheer me up...if I understant well its all about missing HID in official ROM, right? With it it should be working? And all the third partys Roms do have the HID?

Can I ask what Android version and software number you are using?
Menu > Settings > About phone > Software Version
Sure - its version 2.2, SN - 1.32.405.6
for completeness - my reason for not changing ROM isnt that dont know how, but simply dont want to...but if its required...been using WM for years and now jumbed to Android and dont know all stuff. So your iterest is very kind...and appreciated...
Same problem here. I bought Freedom Pro bluetooth keyboard, I managed to connect it TO DHD official ROM with third party drivers found on otadrivers.com. However these drivers have limitedbuiltin keybord layouts (English, Deutsch, Korean), but I need Czech layout with special characters and there is no way user can create customer layouts. For me the only way is CM7 ROM with working HID profile, and then editing keychar files in order to create Czech layout for the keyboard.
Hopefully guys from Revolution HD ROM will implement bluetooth HID profile into their ROM.
My 2 cents.
iGo keyboard works fine for me...
Hi all,
I use an iGo keyboard with my Desire HD; it works a treat. However, it won't work with a stock HTC rom; I run Cyanogen however and this works without any extra software required.
I recently tried the keyboard on my sisters Desire HD; she's not rooted or the like and has via OTA updates got it on the latest official HTC rom. Still won't work there, so evidently still an HTC stock limitation...
Connect Bluetooth keyboard to Desire HD via HID
Finally I found a way how to natively connect bluetooth keyboard to HTC Desire HD.
I was looking for ROM with Sense with bluetooth HID support, but there were only CM7 ROM without Sense. Also Revolution HD ROM was with Sense, but doesnt include HID support.
Finally found it, this ROM
[ROM][Aug 29][ACE] Virtuous Unity 2.35.0 Sense 3.0 based on Pyramid is based on official ROM from Pyramid, includes Sense, and I was able to connect my bluetooth keyboard via HID.
Voila.
Now I will be able to change keychars files in order to change keybord layout from English to Czech.
bluetooth keybord czech layout
So finally made it to change layout of external bluetooth keyboard to Czech.
In case of Virtuous Unity ROM mapping of external HID keyboard is located in the following file
Code:
/system/usr/keychars/BT_HID.kcm.bin
.
In the attachment you will find edited file for Czech keyboard - QWERTZ including mapping of all czech characters. What i didnt make is Acute - when u press a key "ˇ" - and keyboard is waiting for next character (for example D) and then outputing acuted character (Ď). Acute characters (ˇ´) are mapped to keys but after pressed they dont wait for next character. I have to work on that.
You can push it to device by adb
Code:
adb push BT_HID.kcm.bin /system/usr/keychars/
I m using Freedom Pro keyboard but any bluetooth keyboard should work.
Hi,
I have russain version of Desire Z, and looks like the latest ICS CM 9.0 Beta has an issue with hardware keyboard input language: I can't change it to russian while all regional setting has 'russian' as primary language. For example, on 2.3.4 there is an 'en' or 'rus' icon in status bar if focus is on some input box while hardware keyboard is opened, I can switch between eng/rus input languages by hitting key 'language'.
Did somebody else tried to test hw keyboard on non-english Desire Z? Is it my configuration problem or CM issue?
If it is realy an CM issue, I can help with patch/update testing to confirm it.
Thanks,
Roman.
P.S.: Can't post to development thread, so decided to ask here.
