Anyone have found a way to change the profile pressing and holding the # key in the HTC Rom?
I came from Tmo version to HTC German, and now the # key isn't working.
Anyone pleasee!
So I'll give it up!
I tried playing a Long_Camera.lnk shortcut in \Windows folder containing a link to the Mute.exe file. That didn't work.

It's seems so easy
Maybe you should try to replace the xT9 of the HTC edition. Or it may be the problem of the keyboard driver kbbdr.dll. Sorry, don't quite remember the exact name.
There was a workaround for that going around a while back, wish I had a link as I got it to work, but lost the instructions -- so if I have to 'start over', I don't know what to do again. I believe it was on Howard Forum -- did you try there? Just remember googling it and coming up with the instructions to get that 'number-sign-to-vibrate-profile' feature going in a HTC ROM...

Another option is to assign a speed dial hotkey to quickapp.exe, or if you use phoneAlarm, "paWakeup.exe -pm" will do exactly what you're looking for.
Hi all!
After searching the wide web of the world I didn't find anyone who cared to program the special characters for nordic keyboards (æ,ø and å). The norwegian stock ROM has got these mapped to own keys, but I've never liked to use stock ROMs, so I was stuck with the "long press method".
New! Now Spanish is also supported!
If you screw up your phone trying to adb push, cp -f these files I'm not responsible yada yada yada (nothing wrong should happend, really)
What I've done is taking the modified files from teferi, and added my own editing for the quick keys (as I had to make place for the chars I removed from jkl) and the special chars of course.
Confirmed on my G2 (running the Sense ROM from MoDaCo), but should work for the Desire Z too! Any guinea pigs out there?
Code:
*Norwegian*
version 0.3:
-Fixed issue with , and ; didn't work on hardware keyboard.
version 0.2:
Quick change to the "Z" button, since "`" is used in command substitutions.
-alt-z is still "^", alt-shift-z = "`"
version 0.1:
-alt+j,k,l = æ,ø,å (alt+shift gives capitol letter).
- make ".com" a TAB key, as it ought to be
- left softkey is now "\" "|" "/"
- right softkeys are now "[" "(" "<" and "]" ")" ">"
- alt-z is now "^"
Code:
*Spanish version*
Version 0.2
-Corrected filenames for the new files, and included the right "originals".
Version 0.1
[Key] - [Shift + key] - [FN + key] - [Shift + FN + key]
a - A - ! - á
e - E - 3 - é
i - I - 8 - í
o - O - 9 - ó
u - U - 7 - ú
n - N - = - ñ
? - ¿ - " - ¡
. - < - : - >
INSRUCTIONS:
*Add -wwe after "keypad" in the filename for both files if your running a Desire Z based ROM. CM and G2-based will work without -wwe*
- download file
- unzip *.zip
- adb push vision-keypad.kl /sdcard/
- adb push vision-keypad.kcm.bin /sdcard/
- adb shell
- su (if you don't have ro.secure turned off)
- mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p25 /system
- cp -f /sdcard/vision-keypad.kl /system/usr/keylayout/
- cp -f /sdcard/vision-keypad.kcm.bin /system/usr/keychars/
- reboot
Btw... backup of original keymapping is included... just rename them without .orig, and follow the procedure above
Code:
Guide to make your own keys:
Download a hex editor (i prefer xvi32), open the "kcm.bin", and alter the symbols shown in the attached .jpg. If you wish to alter the "main" char of the key, you can change that in the .kl file with notepad (check the difference between esp and nor to see an example).
Thanks to teferi for the base files

Great work! But, since I'm not Norwegian, I'm not going to try it
However, I'd love to see a modification of the original English Desire Z Sense keymap with just a few modifications.
Here's a picture of the Desire Z keyboard
http://www.theunwired.net/media/news/htc_desire_z_front_open.jpg
1) Getting á, é, í, ó and ú by Shift + FN + a, e, i, o, u (I think it's Shift + Alt in the G2 keyboard). Currently I have to long press the vowel key and then touching the screen. Not efficient.
2) Getting ¿ by using Shift + ? , and maybe ¡ by pressing Shift + FN + ?.
Would it be possible?
If you need the original files or whatever, just tell me
Thank you in advance.
I would need to get the original desire z keymapping files as I've just the g2... they are a little different with the non-letter keys.

Here it is
I've just uploaded a file with the two directories, keychars and keylayout.
I think it's interesting that there are several kcm.bin files and several kl files, for different languages, but I don't know how to select them.
Thank you again.
Actually... You can't keep both ! and "á" at the "A" key.... or at least you can't get the "á" capitol that way...
It would then be a, A, !, á available on that key.
Do you want me to remove the !, or...
I don't mind having to long press A to get the Á, I don't use it that often
cool. this is useful for me. I don't got the Nordic version so thanks

Novek, have you had time to look over the Spanish version?
No rush, just curious.
I've actually haven't had time today but I'll try to find some time tomorrow or wednesday...
Just found a bug in the norwegian mod (the comma button doesn't work) so I'll fix that tomorrow too...

I would like to state that these files /system/keymap/* and /system/kaychar/* might be affecting the capacitive buttons belove the screen also. This will not brick anyone's phone (probably ) but will make it hard to do anything unless fixed.
What I understand:
everyone should use only the files that are meant for their specific DZ version and modify that.
I.E. G2 files on Scandinavian DZ renders capacitive buttons useless. And if u dont have adb access nearby it can be hard to do anything
Novek, I hadn't seen your private message. I already answered and I'm willing to try your alternative files
By the way, does anybody know why there is a lot of different files in /system/usr/keychars and keylayout? I mean, there's a vision-keypad.kcm.bin and a vision-keypad-esn.kcm.bin.
It would seem that the esn file could be useful for us Spanish speakers, but I don't know how to use it.
Hi Novek.
Thanks a lot for the Spanish version, but I'm afraid I'm doing something wrong.
I substituted the original files for the ones you have uploaded (I tried both doing it via Root Explorer and following your guide using adb) and when I press Shift + FN + N I still get = instead of ñ. The same with the rest of the keys.
I think I've read somewhere that the Desire Z uses the vision-keypad-wwe.kcm.bin and vision-keypad-wwe.kl file instead of the ones without wwe, could that be it?
I would assume that you can just rename the files I posted...
/edit
If it works after renaming to wwe, I'll change the uploaded files..
I'll also re-do the norwegian keymapping with the DZ-files tomorrow - removing the files for G2 now.

Takk veldig mye!
I just renamed the files and it worked. Thank you very much
Edit 1. Mmm.. it worked at first, but now when I use Shift+FN+key I get Á, É, Í... instead of á, é, í.
Edit 2. Nevermind... I get the capitalized version when the autocorrection kicks in, at the begining of a sentence

Could everyone help for me pls!

Hi again, Novek! Just noticed that my SYM key is now working like a shortcut key When I press it, I get the "Keyboard shortcuts: Would you like to assign a shortcut to the hardware keys?" screen.
Could you make another version with this fixed? Thank you in advance

In the first posting, it pretty much is a step-by-step guide. Is there any particular part that's confusing you ? Don't be afraid to ask specific questions about things. It's not dumb to ask questions, it's dumb to just try something when you don't understand what you're doing and it could mess up your phone !
Yes, as far as I know this should work with the original ROM.
It's not really clear for me, how can I make my own layout?
So which file included "which key is which letter" table, and how can i edit it?
Hi
I want to disable it, how can I do that ?
I'm on ICS 4.0.4
Please if you know tell me
Thanks in advance

Not trying to be a jerk here, but you could just not push the home button.
Open /system/usr/keylayout/keypad-zeus.kl in a plain-text editor
Change the line "key 102 HOME" to "key 102 "
Keep the file permissions at 0644 (rw-r--r--)
Make a backup first, because if you mess something up, most of your buttons will stop working

Hello,my Lumia 830's "Back" button didn't work.So I want to use virtual button bar by editing registry.but I can't find this key:HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\NavigationBar\SoftwareModeEnabled
Maybe it has changed......so,where can I find it?
Sorry my English is bad....
OS Version is 15184.36002
Thank you
This is firmware version. What other values did you find under NavigationBar?
Why not add this key using custom pfd or any other app?

Thank you.
Other values seem like resolution…1080*1920、1366*768…when I open it，shows:values:back,hide,search,start.and key:height,separatorheight
I used interop tool 1.8beta to add this key，but it have disappeared when I rebooted
Create the key and it works
You have restored ndtksvc path? Use custom pfd, type of value is integer dword 32bit., value = 1.

Hi TIm,
I want to enable virtual navigation bar on L720 running WP 8.1 (Denim). I have installed Custom PFD 3.0 and I am able to see the registry values. However, when I am trying add a key, it gives an error message that key is wrong or no permission. Kindly suggest what should I do?

Dude, I have this problem too. The back, home, and browser buttons do not work, I have already restored a firmware and have upgraded pro win 10. but it did not work again. Aura that is a possibility to activate a virtual button?
