First off: Credits, a big THANKS and hats off to Rozenthal, Exidler and Giannis86 for their respective work with FingerKeyboard: IMHO the best typing solution for windows mobile.
Click here to go to the FingerKeyboard thread!
What's BIGkeys? This is a landscape layout for FingerKeyboard v2.1 that maximizes the size of the keys to facilitate typing even more. The goal of the layout is to be as similar to a normal keyboard as possible to provide intuitive placement of special chars. Of course with the size constraints of the keyboard there are some compromises. There is no BIGkeys portrait layout. If you want bigger keys in portrait, try the SoftTouch Max Key layout by ring-bearer (thanks aussiebum for recommendation).
The original swedish layout is created by a friend of mine. I thought it was so good that I wanted to publish it here and he's given me permission to do so. He made the key spacing and the original layout, I have polished the layout to make it similar to a normal keyboard for intuitive placement of special chars etc and I also made a WWE layout with his layout as base. My friend has the name byggver here on XDA and all credit goes to him for this excellent layout.
How to install: First install FingerKeyboard. Then copy the .txt file attached in the post for respective layout into the Skins folder of where you installed FingerKeyboard, for example Internal Storage\Program Files\FingerKeyb\Skins. Then select correct language in FingerKeyboard settings.
One more thing: These layouts are provided as-is. If you want something added or changed, take a look into the layout .txt file and do it yourself. It is really quite simple: there is one row per key, the first numbers in every row are key x-placement, y-placement, width and height, then there is a reference to the key images used and there is the text displayed on the key as well as the corresponding output. It is really self-explainatory once you look into the .txt file. I did this with hardly any programming skills and so can you.
I cannot please every taste, only you can make the perfect keyboard for you. I'm just sharing what I already have and as a bonus I'm doing a WWE layout. This way, you can at least have a starting point for your own perfect layout. If you make your own layout based on BIGkeys and want to share it, feel free to post it in this thread and I'll make a link to it on the first page.
WWE layout
So, here's the WWE layout. I used the standard US keyboard layout as reference, however I've not done much typing on US or UK keyboards, so I probably don't have a good feel on where to put the special chars that don't have a given place. I tried to make it as intuitive as I could.
Feel free to change what you don't like!

SWE version
This is the swedish layout. It contains no key to change language, I removed it to give more space for other keys. I only use this language layout anyway so...
UPDATE: A swedish portrait layout for WVGA can be found HERE. The keys are only standard size, but it's still useful.

BIGkeys WWE VGA version by MrObvious
.
hi, can you do the same for potrait mode aswell as there are buttons i dont use, then we can have the keys bigger in potrait aswell, just an option.
thankyou

Actually, portrait doesn't really give much to work with if you want bigger keys. The 480 pixel width is really a limiting factor there. The BIGkeys layouts are only landscape, at least for now. But feel free to make your own and post it here, I'll put a link up on fist page if it gets buried in the thread.
Of course I can share the swedish portrait layout I'm using if anyone is interested, but the keys are not bigger than FingerKeyboard standard size. The WVGA version looks the same as the VGA version in my signature but with an extra row for arrows and keyboard on/off.
ok, thanks for your response, and i would not have a clue where to start on this, and will take your expert advice in this and leave well alone.
Thanks!
How nice isn´t this! I was going to buy a bluetooth keyboard, but with this I will not. I can type at full speed without errors again, just as on my Hermes.
Thank you very much!
WWE layout is up. Enjoy!

You have some pointers in the first post. Back-up the .txt-files before you start trying and you can't ruin anything. Have a go, you'll figure it out in no time, promise!

Thanks for your feedback! Glad you like it, it's a pleasure to help my fellow swedes. I used to have an Xperia with a hardware keyboard but I find typing with FingerKeyboard and this layout faster and more accurate.

If you want bigger keys in Portrait mode try the SoftTouch Max Key layout in the Xperia forums => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=506474
It looks a bit funny but actually works quite well.
I think I am missing something. I did what you said loaded the text file into the skins folder. Nothing no resize in portrait. Any help?
Thanks Really want to use this!

BIGKeys is landscape only. If you want larger portrait keys use MaxKey: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=506474
suveränt, bra jobbat !
Hi, I've been using FingerKeyboard but found the landscape keyboard is much wider. Copied the text.file onto my installed folder (storage card/program file/fingerkeyboard/skin) but nothing happen. I'm still in portrait mode. Have I missed out anything. Nd help here.
Thanks

When the app you run (for example notes) is rotated into landscape and you bring up the keyboard, you will automatically get the landscape layout. To be able to rotate you need to activate rotation for the application you run and to be able to do so you need to have a rotation app like ChangeScreen, Gyrator etc.
Thank you Thank you

Swedish portrait WVGA layout
This is not really part of BIGkeys since the keys on this layout are standard size.
It was hard to do something useful with the portrait layout because of the size constraints. This is definetely a compromise but at least the swedish special characters are easily availible. Enjoy!

Now the KT key is just to show/hide the bottom bar for quick texting in landscape. I paired it with the abovementioned MaxKeys and converted that to VGA just by changing the resolution from 800x480 to 640x480 and it was easy.

Hello guys,
Earlier, I thought of playing old dos games in X1 using DOSBOX.
Some of my favorite DOS games was
Heretic
Descent
Dave
Skyroads
Commander Keen
and specially Lemmings!!
All of them can be found in DOSGAMESARCHIVE.com
Anyway, my problem is .. SPEED.
So I thought maybe we could help each other to make things faster specially on 3D games.
here's my dosbox config

# This is the configurationfile for DOSBox 0.73.
# Lines starting with a # are commentlines.
# They are used to (briefly) document the effect of each option.

# fullscreen: Start dosbox directly in fullscreen.
# rotateright: Alternate screen rotation.
# mapperfile: File used to load/save the key/event mappings from.
# kbdtoolbar: First toolbar.
# gametoolbar: Second toolbar.
# settoolbar: Third toolbar. Note: frameskip and cycles values are drawn there.
# usescancodes: Avoid usage of symkeys, might not work on all operating systems.
# sensitivity: Mouse sensitivity.
# touchpadmouse: Emulate mouse with stylus moves on screen. Can fix mouse behavior in games that expect only relative mouse movement.
# clickms: When in touchpad mode, left-click is sent after single-tap. This sets the delay in milliseconds between emulated mouse button down and up events.
# rightclickdelay: Touchpad mode. If you tap and hold stylus for this milliseconds, right-click will be send instead of left. 0 to disable.
# dpadmouse: Emulate mouse with D-Pad. Make sure to set corresponding mapper values for this to work. Up, down, left and right keys are autorotated.
# forcetoolbar: Sometimes where's no space on screen to fit even a part of toolbar. This forces it to display. Also a key and a zone can be set for toggling.
# forcetransparent: Forced toolbar area, overlapping active screen part will be semitransparent.
# forcezone: X, Y, width and height of 'force toolbar display' tapzone. No spaces please. See also hand_force_tlbr setting in mapper.txt

my problem is messed up keys ie. left right up down
but so far i only tried faceoff (hockey) maybe i need to try some newer game
yeap. I hope every one can share their thoughts.
tried nhl94 runs slow as hell keys are messed up and lacking "ALT", "ALT_gr" keys
tried to edit mapper.txt but no success with keys
tried to fine tune dosbox.conf no major progress made
heretic and hexen have been released native for pocketpc
lemmings too
that's counter progressive but I accept that.
anyway, I still want to have a possibility to make DOSBOX fast when playing games.

I'm not sure about the X1, but on the LG Fathom, you just need to edit MAPPER.TXT in the DOSBOX folder and swap key_up, key_down etc
- so I think I'm right in saying that you need to swap
key_up <> key_right
key_down <> key_left
key_left <> key_up
key_right <> key_down
I know this post is from a while back, but I just want to post that for anyone looking. I am going to use Windows Mobile as long as I can and I hope others will continue to use it too!
This thread is dedicated to MortScripts that we use to change settings. Most of these can be stand alone scripts, but I got started creating this thread based on CHTS needing WMLongLife to change from Automatic to GSM radio profile. I found that WMLL seemed to eat up battery life in my old Fuze. I tried a script or two from the MortScript examples thread, but they did not work for me. I'll be posting various scripts that I use during my profile changes in CHTS, but I will in such a way that if you do not use CHTS you can still use the scripts.
Another purpose of this thread is to make these scripts available to those who for one reason or another the default programs in CHTS do not work and perhaps the script will. An example is sound profile changing to Automatic was not available so I added a script to do it for me. The feature had been turned off since it did not work in all phones. In a coming version I believe it will be back. The beta test works in my Fuze.
The hope of this thread is to help those that use CHTS to get some of the features that may not work on their phone through MortScripts instead. Also, as a place to share these "TOGGLE" switch scripts for others to be able to use outside CHTS.
I am trying to write scripts that do not use programs outside windows mobile. The hope is that they can be used in as many phones and ROMs as possible. An example is the first form of my Band_Changer used a program in CHTS and I reworked it to not require that program.

Switch Sound Profile
These scripts call the main script with the argument for the profile you want.
Code:
# Sound_Automatic.mscr
CallScript("\Windows\Sound_Profile.mscr", "Automatic")
Code:
# Sound_Normal.mscr
CallScript("\Windows\Sound_Profile.mscr", "Normal")
Code:
# Sound_Silent.mscr
CallScript("\Windows\Sound_Profile.mscr", "Silent")
Code:
# Sound_Vibrate.mscr
CallScript("\Windows\Sound_Profile.mscr", "Vibrate")
This is the main script:
Code:
# Sound_Profile.mscr
# Change Sound Profile based on argument used to call this script from
# a short script in the form:
# CallScript("\Windows\Sound_Profile.mscr", "Automatic")
mode=argv[1]
If(mode EQ "Automatic")
RegWriteString("HKCU", "ControlPanel\Profiles", "ActiveProfile", "Automatic")

ElseIf(mode EQ "Normal")
RegWriteString("HKCU", "ControlPanel\Profiles", "ActiveProfile", "Normal")
SendMessage("", 1156, 0, 0)
ElseIf(mode EQ "Silent")
SendMessage("", 1156, 3, 0)
ElseIf(mode EQ "Vibrate")
SendMessage("", 1156, 2, 0)
Else
EndIf
In CHTS profile switching I use the Execute/Kill App(s) section with the executable as \windows\mortscript.exe and the argument one of these four:
\Windows\Sound_Profile.mscr Automatic
\Windows\Sound_Profile.mscr Normal
\Windows\Sound_Profile.mscr Silent
\Windows\Sound_Profile.mscr Vibrate
Remove the .txt from the end of the script files.
This isn't written as a toggle, but these scripts will turn off or on the auto-time zone sync option in phone settings. Turning it off helps to keep active sync from running all the time.
Code:
#Auto time zone off
RegWriteDWord("HKLM","\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL","NITZEnable",0)
Code:
#Auto time zone on
RegWriteDWord("HKLM","\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL","NITZEnable",1)
Auto time zone toggle
Thanks Farmer Ted
It is easy enough to create a toggle.
Code:
If(RegRead("HKLM","\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL","NITZEnable"))
RegWriteDWord("HKLM","\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL","NITZEnable",0) #Auto time zone off
Else
RegWriteDWord("HKLM","\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL","NITZEnable",1) #Auto time zone on
EndIf
Thx RoryB... toggle features are good... if you can store all here.. it must be a good base to share with communauty !
great job my friend! especially after the long test time in beta group to fulfill different device's needs.
this is the perfect extension for the post-run-scripts while profile switching.
I'm looking forward to much more of this scripts, which can be used.
Thanx also in name of all CHTS-users

Cool, that was a lot simpler than if I'd done it, lol. Here's the same script, with message boxes to let you know what the setting is.
Code:
If(RegRead("HKLM","\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL","NITZEnable"))
RegWriteDWord("HKLM","\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL","NITZEnable",0) #Auto time zone off

I updated post #2 for the Band Changer because I have been getting failed to connect or dialed modem not answering error messages.

Made another tweak to stop data connection first.
Updated Post #2 for Band_Changer.mscr. It seems to run a little faster.
On Band_Changer I realized that
Code:
Y1 = 150 # 1st button which is Auto on HD2 150
Y2 = 215 # 2nd button which is GSM on HD2 200
Y3 = 300 # 3rd button which is WCDMA on HD2 305
works in my phone too. So I would not need to check the screen size, but I am running Energy ROM that is a WVGA with tweaks to work on my VGA. I need to get some pick point data from anyone who uses a true VGA ROM in their phone to confirm the points for it. Also, a screen shot of CMBandSwitcher.exe would help a lot.
If CMBandSwitcher.exe has the same screen size for WVGA and VGA phones I will be able to reduce the code some more.

Sad to go
My Fuze no longer works. I currently have a loner Infuse 4G, but do not know what I will end up with.
I will not be able to continue development of Mortscripts, etc.
Sorry to go, but it has been fun.
I'll keep watching to see if anything comes up I need to respond to.
I bought a new (though not brand new) rooted G2. I'm familiar with G2's as I had one for a long time, but this one is rooted, with CM7. So I noticed the location of assigning my user defined keys was moved to CM7's settings, under input, and they're called "quick" keys. Firstly, they seem to be scattered... ie key 1 on my keyboard is quick key 3, key 2 is quick key 1 and key 3 is quick key 2. Is this normal?
But secondly and more importantly, my first key, which is quick key 3, cannot be assigned anything. No matter what I assign to it, it opens up the symbol screen.
I'm hoping and guessing this isn't a hardware problem
Does anyone have any ideas?? any help would be great
thanks
Those key's are set in the keylayout, if the keynumbers are assigned to a function it will take that function. (on an rooted device you can access the configuration file trough an root explorer, like ESFileExplorer, just download from the market.., the keyboardlayout files are in /system/usr/keylayout/ depending on your rom you can edit these files, mostly qwerty.kl Generic.kl vision-keypad.kl or vision-keypad-wwe.kl, the keys should look something like this:
Code:
key 185 USER3 WAKE_DROPPED
key 184 USER2 WAKE_DROPPED
key 183 USER1 WAKE_DROPPED
in all those files... depending on your rom.)
