Hello,
is there anyway to get an english rom with a german keyboard layout? I know the question may sound strange, but i would like to have this combination.
Nase
On the ftp site there is a keyboard sectiion, you will find a cab to change hardware keyboard.
For software keyboard you need resco or solved, do a search as we have a thread on keyboard.
Oh, that's nice. I will have look at the server.
Do I get you right, that i can change the hardware layout of the keyboard although the ROM has a english layout?
Nase
yes ... u can change keyboard layout to german (or something else) when u have installed aother rom language ........
just copy the cab file to your My DOcuments Folder and double click it ... after a soft reset the keyboard language is chaged ....
That is wunderful. I always thought that isn't possible to change the keyboard layout.
Now only my new MDAIII has to arrive and that i can start upgrading to another ROM

Hello to all,
knows someone how i can upgrade my Cingular Siemens SX66 with english Keyboard to a german MDAIII without Camera but with black berry client and english keyboard layout drivers?
I see many things about how to, but i don´t understand it really. (my english and my technical knowhow is too bad) When I find a solution that works, i would like write a how to in german so that another users can explain that too..
best greetings

P.S.
it should not be free, i will donate that, Paypal is present ;-)

:shock: :evil: :wink:
ok. now i have flashed t-mobile firmware in german and it works.
but how i can change the keyboard layout back to english qwerty
drivers?
and how i kill the t-mobile logo when i put on the SX66? ;-)
we dont have a file for german rom English Keyboard in:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/Localized_Keyboards
There is a tread somewere on Keyboards and not sure if wiki (tweaks) has the hack for that, its a reg key you need to change.
Thank you for the Info. ;-)
so i must search only for a registry tweak to change the driver from german Keyboard layout (qwertz) to english Keyboard layout (qwerty) ?
I must not use the Cab Files in
ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/Localized_Keyboards ?
I think i must change only the driver for the mechanical Keyboard ?
the soft keyboard is ok with qwertz. But at the mechanical Keyboard
i cant change the Letters only with a Edding waterproof marker ;-)
Puhh.. Heavy.. that all.
when i finished, i write a documentation in german ;-)
and when it´s work than german people´s like me
(bad english) are welcome to ask me how to ;-)
Not all that hard,

You have 2 Keyboards
Hardware (Based on the rom, (thus now in german) change with the reg tweak to English)
Software (Based on the rom (now in german) but you can load a external one which you will not need.
Hi all,
After reading some good topics on this forum, I flashed my German O2 Xda into K-jam English sucefully. The Qtek_9100_RUU_Prodigy_10107105_Qtek_WWE_ship & the i-mate K-JAM_WWE_1010903_106_10110 files
are 100% working.
But when using the slided out keyboard,the differnt letter & symbols mapping cause some problem. I always got
the wrong buttons!
When I press "Z" , I get letter "Y", when I press symbol "@", I get "+".
Can someone know how to resolve this?
Big Thanks!
Have a look at this app. It might work on the Wizard.

Thanks for your suggestion, mitchello. I have tried it yet. I visited the website, but I think this mapping does not quite solve the problem, because it is a bit complicated & cannot solve the symobls layout.
TRY THIS
4. for the german keyboard on english ROM
4a. get a registry editor (like Resco)
4b. search the Change the key
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\Qwerty]
4c. edit - Layout in decimal to 66567
I have changed the value 00000409 into 00000407 in the registry : \\currentcontrolset\control\keyboardlayout
active > 00000409 , but still nothing happen.
Could there be some extra files are needed?

Tried as you said, but could not find oem\Qwerty or similar. It only has a \\currentcontrolset\control\keyboardlayout
active > 00000409 , changing 00000409 into 00000407 did not help.
I gusess some more files are needed!
Hello,
i have also search the registry for 00407 or 00409 and i found
entrys, but nothing changes are working.
Nobody has an solution for the keyboard problem ?

So what is your physical keyboard layout?
(i' don't know if there is a german layout)
Is it a QWERTY board?
I have upgraded my dutch (QWERTY) wizard to the 1.1.9 K-jam rom.
And it works fine, so the default key layout for that ROM is QWERTY.
i have an german keyboard and the imate k-jam rom and now
the keys z and y are not right. (and all the other symbol keys)
Other people has the same problem.
regards

my German O2 XDA's physical keyboard layout is QWERTZ, but K-Jam English Rom require a physical keyboard layout of QWERTY. So there is a Z & Y (also some symbols ) mis-placing problem.

If you don't want to edit the registry manually try using Registry Wizard. It's available for download in the regular Wizard forum and has an option for keyboard layout.
I updated to the I touch thing and now I have a English rom on a german hard keyboard the Z and the Y are in different places and that confuses me. I am fine with the english language I just want it set up so it matches my hard keyboad. I tried the language and region settings but its still inverted.
Any way to fix that?

I am trying to retain the arabic keyboard layout from the original ROM because I waited long time to buy the arabic device. Then when we started the upgrading, it's all gone.
I found accidently the following cab file in the windows folder of the original WM6.1 ROM. So I figured if I install it on WM6.5 customs roms it will re-enable the arabic keyboard, or so I thought.
Anyone can offer help on how to have the arabic keyboard working and see whether this file is of real use or not? thanks.
Samer.
can you find "Bulgarian Phonetic" keyboard layout ?
10x
ok, so no one can answer, let me now rephrase the question maybe it becomes simpler.
If you have an official NBH for your TP2 device which comes defenetly with special files and settings to activate non-english characters (in my case arabic), how can I find these files and settings and extract them from the NBH file?

Thank you for your concern. This discussion is about remapping the main keys to a different language. What I am looking for are the suplemtnatry keys which are activated after pressing the mail key as it has a symbol of switch language.
So in other words, I have 2 languages on my keyboard, english and arabic, and there is a key that changes the complete keyboard to arabic or vice versa dynamically.
I am hoping to find a solution for that
i've flashed my x1 with a dutch rom, but it has AZERTY-layout for the keyboard, my phone has QWERTY. can I somehow change this? Or has anyone got a dutch ROM with QWERTY layout?
not really worth a new thread, already tried some searching...?
Mod edit: not rom dev related, moved to general
yes i did, and haven't found any usefull things that work for me, so i started a new thread...
I would associate AZERTY with Frensh roms, not Dutch ones
which one did you flash? something like this should be described in the rom des
q: are we talking about hw keyboard or sip?
for hardware read here

it is a belgian phone, and here we have azerty and also qwerty, both with dutch software on it. But the belgian ROM that i can find is azerty, not the one with qwerty...
edit: it appears to be a ROM with dutch language and franch keyboard layout, the value in the registry was 1036
