I flashed to the htc release wm 6.1 but accidentally did a foreign version. I flashed it again with the US release and it works fine except the symbols E, D, X, W, S, Z, Q, and A are not working correctly. They input a different symbol.
I went to do the keyboard fix...
"Goto the following registry entry
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty]
There is a key called 'Layout' and it is in Decimal.
The default value of English ROM is 20409, and Chinese ROM is 20404 (both are in hexadecimal)."
...and the value was already 132105 (20409 in decimal)
I went ahead and changed it to 132104 and then back to 132105 but it is still not working.
Is there such a program that would allow me to easily re-map the keyboard?
Any help is appreciated!

Thanks!
I ended up just finding this fix a little further down the page...
"Issue: When applying a non-cingular ROM to an 8525 its default keyboard is different than the 8525.
The Fix:
[HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\Qwerty]
"Layout"=263177 (decimal)"
...it works, but now the keyboard will not light up.
Is this an unrelated problem?
How do I fix it?

No it doesn't fix the problem, any other place in the registry do you know....? Thank you!!
Apologies for jumping onto this thread, seems the best place really.
I've just bought a HTC Hermes, and it has WM 6.1 installed, using it on the Orange UK network.
My only problem is, when pressing ! I get @, and when pressing Y i get Z.
I've ensured all language and keyboard options are set to UK, however I just don't seem to be able to change the keyboard map to full UK, although physically the keyboard is correct, just not the SW side of things.
I was just wondering if someone could help me, if you let me know where I need to look, i'll be able to help you, just not used anything MS based for the past 4 years, so its a bit of a foreign object now.
Thank you,

Good job and thank you in finding this thread and not opening up a new one
Anyhow, have you tried the latest Advance Config Tool v3.3? Try that version and see if it fixes you issue.

Hi there,
I'm actually new to Smartphones, and the Tytn / Hermes was going cheaply online (ebay unfortunately), but the phone itself is excellent and is easy to use from back in my windows days.
Most is familiar, but seeing how far Windows can go before I want to switch to Linux.
Where would I get the ACT? Is it downloadable from here as a development tool, or is it online needing payments etc?
Thank you,
greee, u can get it at schaps website here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=317070&highlight=advanced
galaxys,
I've downloaded the ACT, along with a pocket msn, and neither will install.
Do i need to put them somewhere for it to install correctly? Just i'm only getting access to my memory card.

Both should install on main memory.
Are you getting an error when the don't install?
So far kareem, i'm getting an XML output for the ACT, and for Pocket MSN it reports:
Setup Is Not a valid Pocket PC application.
With the ACT, i've no option to install, although the setup file I have was meant to be a cab file.
Thank you,
Scratch all that, got both PocketMSN and ACT installed today! For some reason the keyboard was in German, so switched that back!
Thanks guys!
Now got to find uber cool stuffs for my phone...

INTRO
I've started this thread to port the EzInput Keyboard to QVGA resolution. The keyboard is now fully functional yet still has a couple of small glitches to be fixed in portrait mode.
I am doing all the testing on my elfin, so I cannot assure that it will work on other devices so you'll have to test it yourselves!
You can download it here:

for their hard work on the VGA port, since I have mixed parts of their ports to get this QVGA version working.
KNOWN BUGS
XT9 is not currently working: the keyboard seems to get the coordinates (size and position) of the VGA keys. E.g.: if you press "q", "a" or "w" the keyboard will write "q" on the screen, since the three letters are in the area of the "q" key in a VGA screen (double size).
Any help on this matter would be really appreciated!!!
XT9 UPDATE 05/01/2009:
I´ve managed to get XT9 working by replacing the xT9ime.dll of the EzInput 2 with the EzInput 1.5 dll supplied with the ROM I am using. The problem now is that I cannot change XT9 mode back to normal mode .
Anyway I encourage you to test this and see if we can get a solution to the XT9 issues.
To test it, just go to the windows directory, rename eT9ime.dll to something else (e.g. eT9ime.dll.OLD) and reset your device (this should restore the dll supplied with your ROM).
I´m waiting for your comments!!!!
VIBRATION/XT9 UPDATE 05/13/2009:
I managed to get vibration to work a couple of weeks ago, but I wanted to fix the T9 mode before releasing a new version.
I´ve been working on T9 and have not been able to find where the code responsible for calculating the key pressed (based on the coordinates) is.
OPTION A: If anyone is able to find such place in the code or just point me in the right direction, I´ll find the time to patch et9Ime.dll so that QVGA users can enjoy T9 in this keyboard.
OPTION B: Another possible option would be to patch the et9Ime.dll from ezinput 1.5, but the mappings of some important keys seem to be different (XT9/ABC switch for example), and also different registry keys need to be updated so that everything works as it should.
Sorry for the lack of feedback, but I need more time for fixing these issues since this is the first time I am dealing with SIP/IME/IMM and stuff and I´ve found it a little bit more complex than I thought it would be.
HOWTO
Additionally, I'm planning on writing a very simple "howto" to explain people what they can do to adjust/fix/change the layout of the keyboard.
PS: I cannot post any screenshot now, so if anyone of you can upload one I'd be grateful.
problem on XT9 mode, maybe is the key mapping, i dunno that
for example type q,w,a,s the result is --> qqqq
type e,r,d ---> www
thanks for your hard working
T9 issue
You're right (i did not test the XT9 )
I'll have a look at it.
Thanks
Nice
Just 2 questions :
- vibrate when keys are pressed : Don t work normal maybe ...
- Is there a way to change language to french? i see 40C file ...
ty
looks great, good to finally have EZInput for QVGA.
major bug I noticed it messes up the keyboard mapping..for example Caps does not function, nor does the light, just flickers on then off when caps is hit, I believe to turn caps on and off (at least for me) I would have to use function, which also works for function (if that makes sense) lol
also the function keys got incorrectly mapped, I will try the tilt keyboard fix, hopefully that will work, and you can post that Cab.
Minor Issue: no SIP image to open the keyboard on the phone. its a black square, hit the square to active SIP. Would be nice to get a cool new icon though ;P
other then that, I will continue to test this, because the spacing between the keys and the skin is very nice
Thanks for your hard work and the post
I installed this new version and the only major thing I see compared to all the rest of the one you have posted is that the SIP Icon for the Keyboard that shows between the softkeys is missing, if you press the empty space the Keyboard still pops up and is functional but the icon is gone.
thanks man. Work great
So I don't have the phone keypad...is this just a problem with me or does anyone else have this problem?
XT9 is off, but that's fine cause I don't find a need for xt9 on a full keyboard anyways. Though like I said in the other thread I wish there was compact qwerty, or at least I could have the compact qwerty from my other keyboard as well.
Thanks a lot! Im at school now, but as soon as I get home, I'll install this on my phone.
- Thanks, your job is really appreciated.
Great !!!
I've been waiting for this for sometime now and just say thanks for the Qvga version Just wondering if anyone is working on the xt9 bug, i have gotten accustom to using that but if not no worries still a great keyboard !!!
Well, this full qwerty is a huge improvement over the EZ-Input one. I installed the keyboard and used the full qwerty without any problems. HOWEVER, does the Compact QWERTY mode not work with this? Thanks.
Thank you man, you are awesome !
I don't have any problems with it, except the reported bug of the SIP Icon.
But the keyboard on my Elf is a bit slow without O/C. (WM 6.5)
I love this keyboard !
XT9 bug
I've been looking at the XML files, the kdb files and the ldb files and I still cannot figure out the place where the XT9 keys size/position (x,y,h,w) is defined.
Does anyone know whether it's hardcoded in a PE module or it can be configured anywhere?
BTW, I'm afraid Compact QWERTY is not possible for the time being...
Sorry if I'm repeating. If I switch to numeric and press a key and then go back to ABC then all the keys are screwed up and when I press them I get the wrong keys. Do others have the same problem?
littld, i'm not experiencing that behaviour, sorry

I have been trying to find this out too, I have looked everywhere and can't find the positions for XT9.
Side note, on all 3 previous versions you could use XT9 in ABC and it worked perfectly, but in the new version it just types normally in ABC and XT9 is still broke.

Yes, all 3 you posted in that thread. If set to XT9 all key mapping was off as I had posted in that thread and others. But ABC worked as XT9 without a problem. It was weird. But I am running the last posted version which I downloaded from sendspace and it works as described above. When I installed the one when you opened this thread also from sendspace XT9 key mapping is still the same, totally off and ABC just functions as it should, regular typing with no text prediction.
Hope that makes sense?

This thread will hopefully become a communal Work In Progress. I received my TP2 yesterday and have gotten to work right away on installing Japanese IME on my phone. Anyone who can offer useful tips or any help at all, I greatly appreciate it.
12:11 PM 8/21/2009
So far my first attempts have not proved fruitful. As a first step, I installed Olinex's HSPL. After that, I began installing the cabs from Zgembo's Touch Pro/Diamond Thread. I first installed the Let's Japan WM6.1 R07. After a soft reset, it seemed to be installed ok. I could see a few Chinese characters in the predictive text box above the SIP keyboard (although, there were some boxes too). Second step, I attempted to install the Japanese Advanced IME from the same thread. I should note, it clearly states that it's designed for VGA devices, and TP2 is WVGA. I went ahead with the install anyway. And that's when the trouble began. After soft reset, the HTC splash screen comes up, but after that- black. Nothing. No amount of button pressing or anything short of a hard reset resolved it. And that's as as far as I've gotten.
I'm going to do some more reading and then try again. If anyone knows a better way to go, let me know. Hopefully with more input this can become useful to other people living in Japan that require Japanese capabilities on their Touch Pro 2.
*****UPDATE*****
first off, my apologies, i realize that my solution to the problem wasn't clearly stated in my other posts below.
to get Japanese input/output working on your Rhodium/Touch Pro 2, do the following:
install Asukal LetsJapan6 and restart
install Asukal's IME_31J_FULL, but do not restart
install Asukal's Enable_IME and restart
that simple. romaji, kana, kanji, kensaku, tegaki (the handwriting recognition inputs) will all work. XT9/Predictive will be broken. And you will need to switch between かな カナ or 英数 on the soft keyboard to get the hardware keyboard to type in the language you want.

have you tried that on your TP2? what results did you get?
for anyone else trying Zgembo's cabs from the Touch Pro/Diamond thread, can you let me know your results? After installing LetsJapan, for my SIP icon, I'm getting an A4. In the dropdown menu where you select which keyboard to use, it has A4 智能输入 (i can't read those characters at all). anyone know the deal with this A4 menu?
No problem running CE-Star on my TP2 and the interface is in English, but I don't use or need Japanese input so I cannot comment on that.
yeh, I need Japanese input. and the A4 Chinese pre-installed in my ROM seems to conflict with it somewhat.
almost there... i hope
Ok, so here's the situation so far. After nearly 10 resets, I seem to be *almost* there.
I installed in the following order:
1. LetsJapanWM61r07.cab, then reset
2. KeyTouchJapIMEr07.cab
3. Enable_IME_2.zip, then reset
4. Softbank MMS
So far, I am able to send and receive with no problem. however, I'm still not able to type using any katakana, hiragana, nor kanji. even when i use the kensaku, it will recognize the characters, but when i choose the character, nothing shows up. Japanese input seems to be completely broken.
Is anyone on here able to type in Japanese on their device? if so, what program are you using? the relevant programs I have installed are:
Zgembo JapaneseIME
Asukal Enable_IME
Zgembo Lets Japan WM6.1
Zgembo Lets Japan WM6.1 Mincho
Zgembo Softbank MMS
The soft input keyboards available to me are:
A4 智能输入
Block Recognizer
Kana*
Kensaku*
Keyboard
KeyTouch*
Letter Recognizer
Romaji*
Tegaki*
Touch Input
Transcriber
* for the Japanese characters that don't show up when I type
CE-Star has some Japanese support (I need it to show Japanese song names, but not all words are displayed correctly) and Romaji input but since I don't know any Japanese I can't test the accuracy of inputs for you, but their Romaji input appears to work.
@mesquire: yeah, CE Star doesn't work for me. i think i'll need a bit of a more 'homegrown' solution.
Getting Japanese Input running
well, i finally managed to enable Japanese input. previously, i had been attempting to install Zgembo's KeyTouchJapIMEr07.cab. VISUALLY all the keyboards were there, but only a limited few functioned. i did a lot of trial-and-error installations to figure out what effect each cab file had.
after installing the softbank connection I began installing the IME piece by piece. I should mention that the ZTA4 (Chinese) IME is preinstalled in this stock ROM. the keyboards included in this IME are Touch Input, A4 智能输入, Block Recognizer, Keyboard, Letter Recognizer, Transcriber. i'll paste some of my edited installation/setup notes below. if you don't want to wade through that muck, just skip down to the Highlights section below it:
17. Install Keytouch (Zgembo JapaneseIME; 17.5mb) -> DON'T RESTART
18. Install Enable_IME_HTC_HD
19. Check Input (5 new: Kana, Kensaku, KeyTouch, Romaji, Tegaki)
20. Restart
21. Check input, Regional Settings (still no Japan)
22. test input
QWERTY Touch keyboard is fine (XT9 doesn't work)
Keypad only types numbers
small keyboard is fine
romaji broken (no kana)
kana broken (blocks)
KeyTouch broken (blocks)
Tegaki is fine
kensaku is fine
A4 is fine
block recognizer is fine (but sucks)
Letter Recognizer is fine
Transcriber is fine23. Install CEStar Japan (2mb); no change in SIP functionality; restart; no change in SIP functionality
24. Install Softbank MMS (5.2mb)
25. Install Asukal Lets Japan6 (4.25mb); restart; Regional Setting changed to Japan; Mapple functional; Kana is default keyboard; A4 智能输入 now reads A4 智能▯入; no change in SIP functionality
26. Install 2_IME_31J_FULL.cab (Ask IME 31J) (7.8mb); new input: Roma Ji, Kana, TagakiKensaku, restart, no change in SIP functionality
27. Install LetsJapan WM61r07 (Zgembo Lets Japan WM6.1; 4.25mb); restart
28. Install Enable_IME_HTC_HD again
29. Install 2_IME_31J_FULL.cab again; restart; No change
30. Install Enable IME2; restartl No change
31. Remove Asukal LetsJapan6
32. Remove Zgembo's LetsJapan6 (but didn't remove properly; still in Programs list); A4 is now A4▯▯▯▯; restart; problem occurred with cprog.exe
33. Install LetsJapan WM61r07 again (Zgembo Lets Japan WM6.1; 4.25mb); restart; problem occurred with cprog.exe; no regional setting change
34. Remove Asukal Enable IME; no change
HARD Reset
Highlights
if you have no desire to read through all that and decipher it, it basically says this:
ZTA4 natively allows you to view Japanese (Japanese characters are Chinese characters afterall, but it allows you to see Kanji and Kana)
ZTA4 does not allow you to write in Japanese nor display Japanese in software designed for Japanese OS.
LetsJapan6 (both Asukal's original and Zgembo's derivative) adds Japanese to the 'Regional Settings'. it also installs the font used for Japanese input/output. Of the two, only Asukal's LetsJapan allows software designed for Japanese OS to display Japanese properly (ie. Pocket Mapple). However, neither LetsJapan installs any keyboards (only fonts), so you still cannot write in Japanese yet.
LetsJapan6 (both Asukal's original and Zgembo's derivative) both appear to conflict with ZTA4. I don't know of any change in functionality, but A4 智能输入 in the list of keyboards will now read A4 智能▯入 (if anyone knows of a way for me to completely remove ZTA4, please share).
Zgembo's KeyTouch/JapaneseIME adds 5 new keyboards to your available inputs: Kana, Kensaku, KeyTouch, Romaji, Tegaki; of these 5 keyboards, only 2 work- Kensaku and Tegaki
Zgembo's KeyTouch/JapaneseIME doesn't allow Japanese input; it also breaks XT9 functionality in the English keyboards; Visually it's lovely and everything is there, but it does not function on this particular stock ROM. I should also warn: if you do install this IME, DO NOT RESTART immediately after installing. Immediately after installing, install one of Asukal's Enable_IME files (there's one from long ago and one he recently made for the Touch HD... although, i think they are exactly the same). If you do not install the Enable_IME before you restart your device, after your device boots up and the splash screen fades, you'll be stuck on a black screen, at which point, your only option is to Hard Reset.
Asukal's IME_31J_FULL is the alternative to Zgembo's KeyTouch/JapaneseIME. although Zgembo's is prettier, it unfortunately doesn't work on TP2 (if someone else has had a different experience, please share). Asukal's IME is rudimentary, no fancy stuff like a Japanese Touch Keypad or predictive text, but it allows you to write in Japanese.
Asukal's IME_31J_FULL adds 4 new keyboards: Roma Ji, Kana, Tegaki, and TagakiKensaku. All seem to function perfectly fine as touch keyboards. As touch keyboards though, they're not very finger friendly, so you'll be stuck using your stylus to tap. In hardware keyboard mode, at the moment there is no known Fn key combination that allows you to switch between English and Japanese. This must be chosen by first choosing either かな カナ or 英数 on the soft keyboard, then typing with the hardware keyboard. And again, if you do install this IME, DO NOT RESTART immediately after installing Same thing will happen as stated above. Immediately after installing, install one of Asukal's Enable_IME files. If you don't, you'll have lots of fun hard-resetting.
After setting up the IME, it should be relatively safe to install the Arcsoft Softbank program. I've been using that and have no problems sending or receiving SMS and MMS... although, I don't know how to use emoji since i think it was something that is inherent in the Japanese KeyTouch keyboard.
So that's my rundown. Hope it will be useful to others. What I want to do now is find a way to Isolate the Japanese KeyTouch keyboard, get rid of ZTA4, and get XT9 prediction working again on both English and Japanese keypad. I'd really love it if Asukal, Alcibiade, Zgembo, larsucks and the rest of the X01HT gang could get in on this and offer some suggestions. Anyone else who has discovered anything interesting, please don't hesitate to post!!

thanks, i'm familiar with ookii.org. good stuff. i've been using his pocket dictionary for a few years now. but with regards to his japanese input, i don't imagine there will be added functionality over Asukal's IME, but I do imagine there will probably be less. And still, it's old, so the letters will still be tiny, there will be no keypad, and there will be no predictive text.
Did you try BeeGee_Tokyo's CAB for Topaz?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4102158
I tried it on my Rhodium and it works quite well, though it seems to slow the system down. Only thing I found is that I can't use the physical keyboard to input Japanese.
Topaz and Rhodium are quite similar, definitely in terms of screen res and probably software I think.

thanks for the suggestion. i already got Japanese input working now, but i may try that one in a later configuration.
what i'd like to know now is if anyone else has been able to install HTC KeyTouch (the Japanese version from the X05HT) onto their Rhodium. That is the SIP keyboard I would really like to get functioning, as one-handed typing on the Rhodium would be lovely. Also, I think that the emoji are preset in that SIP, so presently, i can't get them working in my Softbank Mail program. anyone have any success with that?
btw e60202, if you follow the method i stated on the previous page, you can have Japanese input both software and hardware keyboard.
Cool...I'll give that a try and let you know if I have any trouble. Thanks.
@shunsai
I want to buy the HTC Touch Pro 2 here in Germany soon. But reading and writing Japanese is very important to me. So, I am glad that you found a solution for my problem.
But I still have some questions.
Could you tell me where I can download Asukal LetsJapan6, Asukal's IME_31J_FULL and Asukal's Enable_IME?
If it won't work the way I hope it will, how can I remove it from my device afterwards?

asukal keeps a blog where he also includes his files. this entry he wrote is about the Touch HD, but the files work for the Touch Pro 2 as well. the 1_Enable_IME_HTC_HD.cab included in the zip seems to be the exact same as Enable_IME_2.zip
LetsJapan6 is available here
most of his other files are available here.
if things don't work out, hard reset will become your friend, so make sure to backup all your files and settings before you install just in case.
Thank you very much for the info, Shunsai!
Have you already found a way to change the input method with the hardware keyboard?
Somewhere I read something about pressing the Crtl and Shift at the same time. Does that work on your device?
Having trouble with text
First of all. I want to thanks to you Shunsai and Asukal!
I'm having trouble to input Japanese with Touch pro 2.
Now everything work good except text message.
When I text with Japanese it shows "????????????????".
It shows fine with email and web browser.
Do you have same problem? Or it is just for me?

no prob. i'm here to help people in the same boat as me if i can, but really i haven't done anything. i'm just benefiting from the fruits of asukal's labor like you. can you tell me more about your device (which ROM/region)? what order did you install the cabs in? was it on fresh install?
i'm still tinkering around trying to get japanese and english input where i want them, but japanese IME seems to be very tempermental in general. so far, its really only worked for me consistently when i installed in the order in the OP.
Have you guys tried this Japanese display and input app?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445550
No need for separate installs - all in one cab, works on many different devices, also with hardware keyboard. Much smoother than LetsJapan or CE-Star IMO.
I have tried all three cabs below with zero success! Yes, these cabs remap if that the letters on the hardware keyboard but do nothing for the top row and symbols in blue. I can live without remapping the OK key if thats such a feat but need all other keys at least to be mapped the way they are suppose to be, they way they look on the hardware keyboard. Im sure many other users here will agree with me on this and hopefully others will pitch in as well.
Just looking for a simple cab to install so when i flash a custom rom that i can have FULL use of my hardware keyboard on my att tilt2, no more and no less. I have no knowledge in this stuff or id do it myself rather then provide stickies of a cab that does only half the job!
Since half the keyboard is already remapped, i will start the donation/bounty at $10USD and will add more if this can be done quick. If there's multiple people in on creating this for the community then i will be sure everyone truly involved gets a fair share as well.
Im no techy, just an end user but don't see this task to be complete rocket science.
What the hell !!! The symbols in blue???? Those are controled with the funtion key (FN) on the keyboard.

Yes of course they are. Im saying not only to remap the keys in white but also the ones controlled by the FN key, the symbols in blue. I dont believe my description is hard to understand. Simply look at an att tilt2 hardware keyboard, now have it work as it should, thats it! Not asking for anything else, just for all the keys on the hardware keyboard to work as they do when you first turn it on using the stock rom. Need a cab so it will work on custom roms since were not here to run stock roms.
Dont really know how else i can spell it out? Maybe take a picture of the att tilt2 hardware keyboard and post it?
I use the first one you list and all of my Keys work fine on my AT&T Tilt 2.

Are you saying the top row works fine and every blue symbol key in conjuction with the FN key works fine as well? What rom are you running? Makes no sense to me. Making me think i have one bunk device since ive tested this with a fresh flash without installing anything else.

I put that second script, install the cab (MortScript) then run the script file. soft reset and your good.
Some applications are weird and they swap the keys back to the original TP2 settings, but its very rare. It seems to work fine for me other than that. OH and when trying to use the hardware keys when dialing for a phone call its not right.. But I don't really use that anyways.

What rom are u using including build? I used the mort pacakge just as u described after a fresh flash of nrgs latest rom of build 23518 on wm6.5.3 standard sense 2.1 and nothing bro! Only keys that work right for me are the letter keys, comma, period, and question mark. Well FN, shift are also mapped correctly as well. Every key on the top row is numbers 1-0 and the blue symbol keys are all over the place! This is killing me!
No, you dont need to explain. I understood your post and as you can see, i am on a custom rom with the tilt 2 and all my buttons work perfect, except for the OK key. I also use the first cab in your OP. As for dialing, as pointed out by a respose here, have no clue if mine works that way. I use the onscreen dialer.
Something must be wrong with your phone!!!!
Im using NRGZ's Leo Rom the 21885 version from 12/31.... It could be an issue with the 23518 builds. The OK button has never worked but dont really need it. I would try it on a 21885 build and if it doesnt work it sounds like device specific. You also could flash a Stock Rom back on then back to a Custom one sometimes some of the previous system files arent removed correctly I have heard.
I have an att tilt 2 as well, and after flashing any rom other then att my keyboard is all wrong also, mainly the top row, and the Fn keys. Its pretty funny though without a remap, my shift key works as the FN key, and my OK key works as a shift key, which I find funny. But attached is the cab I always have used every time, and every key with the exception of the OK key works, I have tested this 1,000,000 times. If this cab doesnt work (Which I think could be the third cab in your list but not sure), then you have a bad keyboard.
I have used this cab with, the stock EU rom, nrgz roms, valkyrie's roms, Arks roms.
I have remapped my keyboard layout easily by editing the keyboard txt-file....was no big problem....every row is listed in his file, and you can put in whatever letter/symbol you want....
little hijack
Sorry for hijacking the thread a little. I've got a dilemma here, I'm about to change my physical keyboard (in fact the whole casing) for the one that has tilt2 layout (or maybe just the casing leaving the old keyboard untouched). How do you Tilt2 guys manage without the "Ctrl" key?!!!

Most people will think you are crazy, most tilt2 people want the standard tp2 keyboard. but to your question: since the ok button doesnt work, I mapped "OK" using keyboard config to be a CTRL button

Is it the ATT keypad.dll? and you just open it with a text editor like notepad or something? I have been searching and it seems like that is what I should be looking for but I just want to make sure. Thanks in advance.
Sorry Deeznuts, but either you aren't explaining it right (which I think you are) or (more likely) there is something wrong. I have a Tilt 2\ATT and the keyboard fix cabs do work in every ROM I have installed. (With the exeption of only about three blue keys like the shortcut to mail or the internet.) There is either something wrong with your device or the ROM that you are using. I suggest you start over with a different ROM to test your keyboard, maybe use a stock ROM to be sure. There is also a prog called Rhodium Keyboard Control (RhodiumKbdControl_GSM.cab) that might be of use. Good luck.
I've been using the Tilt2HWKeyboard.cab and all the symbols and numbers work fine.
OK button does not work, sometimes it launches opera, other times i get error message with something about start.exe
FN+Left arrow (supposed to be calendar) Launches opera
FN+Down arrow (supposed to launch internet browser) does nothing
FN+Right arrow (supposed to turn on wifi) opens up comm manager.
I don't mind that those are off, but would prefer the OK button to work and also PTT button does not work at all.
I'm down to put in $10 as well to get a cab that has the full use of the HW keyboard + PTT button

I was looking at that text files, and it appears to be mapped correctly, but the top row is still messed up for me and the blue function keys are not correct either.
Can you post how you modified the text file please?
Mine works fine. I used instructions from a certain thread. I first installed the Tilt2HWKeyboard cab. I then installed a cab called SdkCerts. Then I installed a cab called RhodiumKbdControl_GSM.
$20 for 1 single step install at&t tilt2 keyboard ALL BUTTONS MUST WORK INCLUDING PTT AND OK BUTTON I DONT CARE IF IS A MORT SCRIPT A CAB OR XML
Hes NOT CRAZY lol
I have the same exact issue. ive tried different cabs to no change except . ? , still sont know where the hell at symbol is... I GOT 10 usd for a working cab or a soloution where every key works as should...besides a stock re flash!
What apps are you running bro? Im running the apr8 nrg rom too. idk! dont make sense to me. but even when i ran stock rom keys would switch to this configuratio noccasionally in txt msging!
i would close all the way out of txt and open it back up and keys back to normal. Im seriously about burned out on hunting fixes for these damned phones, stock and otherwise. Ive owned every HTC w a slide keyboard that att offered since 8125 (wizard)
and played hunt and fix on every single one. seriously, what other product would u pay 400 plus dollars for and then spennd countless hours searching for fixes just to make it work properly
Hi
Yes i have searched the forum.
Please fully read the description of my problem before advising me to do something i already stated i have tried.
I have an unlocked GSM TPII.
ROM: Simplicity WWE ROM (date 03/27/2011) ver 5.2.29017 (29017.5.3.12) according to winmob phone info
No reg tweaks or anything else to account for the behaviour. Had phone a few months now with no real issues. Haven't installed any txt/typing related software recently.
Just out of the blue the other day my hardware keyboard starts acting weird.
The main alphabet keys are fine. But the top row number keys are only producing symbols ( NO I AM NOT IN SYMBOL MODE).
The symbols are not even the correct symbols for the corresponding number keys either.
As number inputs unshifted/or func keyed i get
[email protected] 2=_ 3=! 4=( 5=) 6=' 7=" 8=; 9=: 0=/
Shifting makes no difference at all
With Func key on i get
1=% 2=¢ 3=$ 4=& 5=* 6=1 7=2 8=3 9=# 0==(yes = )
Nothing seems to change this behaviour, checked every input and txt/type setting, rebooted a few times, still the same. Figuring it must be a reg setting.
Any help hugely appreciated as this is seriously messing with my txting.
Thanks in advance
Zeb
Seems you haven't gone drastic and flashed...
So either hard reset and go back to default on the ROM you're on, or go all out crazy and flash stock.
Certainly would rule it out... Sorry I don't have more specific advice.
Hi m8
Thanks for the prompt reply, was hoping to be able to avoid a full reset.
But hoohum .....
Just got cobaltcontroller, FPseCE, etc, etc all nicely installed and setup.
Oh well....
Any recommendations on a different ROM?? GSM as am in uk, simplicity wasn't my choice prev owner flashed it.
Hopefully someone else has reg fix or something
Thanks m8
