How do I change the keybord layout from english to a layout of my choise like danish?
And how do I modify sym.0409.txt in the windows dir (read only and located in ROM)
I've alreade tried the tips on localisation of keyboard in the wiki and can't seem to get them to work.
I'm new to wm6 so please be gentle...
Welcome to WindowsMobile
I think you could give a try to :
"Restore local language support for sliding keyboard after upgrade to a different language ROM"
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Registry
I've tried that with little luck. I've managed to modify sym.0409.txt to a more userfriendly version. This is however only possible via PC and not directly on the device as originally tried due to the fact that I'm currently nowhere near my PC.
It seems that the hardware keyboard control is managed slightly dirrerently in the Kaiser relative to the Hermes.

Paint the far bottom key bright Blue and the middle keys White to where it looks like your flipping somebody the finger and you have the tilt keyboard......

Greets,
I have been trying to figure out how to change the regular on-screen keyboard from the Tilt to the SPB Full Screen Keyboard.
Since I do not want to change from the real keyboard (as an option), the "Input" control panel isn't the right choice.
I just want to make the SPB Keyboard come up when I hit that little keyboard icon which comes up on the bottom of the screen.
Any ideas?
This should allow you to change the default keyboard.

Try this directly. It's a keyboard that works as default properly. you don't need any external tools.
* Update Nov. 12. 2008 (missing file in zip)
I have made this thread because I spent some time searching for the keyboard mapping (kmap) of my HTC S730 phone (Wings). A guy named bigflavor pointed me in the right direction, so here we go.
The kmap is a file you use to set up the correct mapping between the slideout keyboard on the phone and the actual characters that comes out when you press the keys.
0106, 0406, 0706 - this is all for Danish, i.e. the "06" (http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/reference/winxp/xp-lcid.mspx).
For Danish keymapping:
The zip file contains 3 files
eT9.Wings.0406.kmap.txt
eT9.Dis.9Keys.Danish.Kbd.dll
eT9.Danish.Ldb.dll
1. Connect your Windows Mobile to your PC via the USB-cable.
2. Extract all files into the \\Windows folder on your HTC S730.
3. Open up your Mobile Registry Editor and add the following 5 key/value pairs to the Registry of your HTC S730.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Tegic\eT9\AvailableLanguages
Add 0106
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Tegic\eT9\IME\KdbDlls
Add 00010606 = eT9.Dis.9Keys.Danish.Kbd.dll
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Tegic\eT9\IME\KeyboardLayouDlls
Add 00000706 = eT9.Wings.0406.kmap.txt
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Tegic\eT9\IME\LanguageKeyboardIDMapping
Add 0106 = 0706
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Tegic\eT9\LdbDlls
Add 0106 = eT9.Danish.Ldb.dll
- you're done - have fun
You should make a wiki entry, and link it off the WM 6 standard page and the Wings main page. I've been maintaining the Wings main page for some time, trying to update it as more things pop up.
Where can I find other language packs?

You'll find it (eT9 Lang Pack) at http://www.modaco.com/content/vox-vox-modaco-com/254428/pauls-vox-et9-language-pack/ or http://melgurth.ovh.org/index.php?page=downloads (T9 Lauguage Pack)
Oh, thanks, but it's the XT9 pack... I already have the other one and it works, but the problem is the QWERTY keyboard layout - when I press fn+m, for example, the apostrophe should come out - the semicolon does instead.
I've included my hardware layout pic - seems it's norwegian or something like that o.o
I'd be satisfied with working other or english layout, it's only important to me if the corresponding keys will work as they should

try using the Tilt keyboard fix to fix it! you can get it at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334911
i have a at&t fuze and on my stock rom and many other pressing Fn+Space would bring up the symbol menu.
however i am running Da_Gs latest 6.5 and Fn+Space does nothing.
any help?
hopefully a cab or regedit rather than reflashing
can anyone help? this is a problem as i use symbols heavily
try these cabs from shlomki http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=474192
no, the problem is not my keyboard layout- the problem is the symbols menu just isn't on my phone. all other Fn commands work fine
did you disable xt9 to bring back the old word suggestion?
I've been searching all over the place with no satisfying result
i didn't cook in HTC eZ input keyboards, because i don't want them.
if i do cook them in however i get the symbols- it seems the symbols are a part of the HTC keyboards :\
i've been trying forever to find a way to get the symbols without the htc keyboards, can't seem to find answers
Can anyone tell me how to do this on the Sprint stock ROM? I've been trying to find the answer to this question as well, it "says" on the keyboard in yellow that SYM is the key to the left of the space bar but NO keyboard combination I've pressed invokes the symbols menu.
anyone help.

I've once lost symbols keypad when I've changed registry entry
"HKLM\System\currentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e0010409\Ime File"
from "\windows\eT9ime.dll" to "\windows\compime.dll".
So you might try just to cook "eT9ime.dll" and verify that above entry
points this file, instead of cooking whole EzInput...
This worked for me : Edit the following registry key: HKLM\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\CWSLayout - change the value from 1 to 0 and softreset.

yeah if you read earlier posts, the keyboard layout is not the problem
you only need to install the xt9 portion of the htc keyboards. the symbols menu is pulled from the xt9.
Just for the records

Just for the records: had the same problem on a Fuze with RRE 5, fix it doing the opposite of what the_ozyrys did:

It's making me going crazy...
As per my experience, there's a simple option to change in order to adapt your physical keyboard layout to you system. At least, this is easily done on my pc.
But, what about my Kaiser?
I have a AT&T Tilt Kaiser, with AT&T keyboard layout (the one with grey numpad).
But I have an Italian Rom (Shifu WM6.5 V4.2).
Italian keyboard has the same AT&T layout, except for some symbol position: as an example, when I press FN+D, I expect character ":" (double dot) to be inserted into the window, while I obtain a "%" character instead...
I tried "advanced config"and changed input->Keyboard layout to AT&T/Cingular, with no effect...
So, to be syntetic: Where is the option to change the keyboard layout?

Hey folks,
I'm very, very new to installing new software on my HTC TD2, but I've been browsing a bit around on the web. Looking for a keyboard that actually works with my fingers. I really dislike those QWERTY keyboards, I simply want a 0-9 keyboard with buttons filling up like 50%+ of the screen, like some samsungs have! I just wanna be able to type while I'm walking and such, not always having to depend on my stylus,
I hope you people get what I mean and that someone could help me out
yfrog.com/efnaamloosqp
I crappy image which I've made with paint + touchpad, so don't mind the quality. Just to give an example
Thanks in advance people!
When typing, press the little arrow next to the keyboard icon at the bottom of your screen. Press phonepad
Hi!
Is it possible to install and use the original WM6.5 keyboard and input methods in conjunction with the EzInput 2.1 keyboards from HTC? Now the SIP selector only shows the HTC keyboards.
BTW: I'm using a cooked 6.5 (21891) ROM with manila 2.5.20113626.
Regards,
PK

Figured that one out already, but there are many 'useless' buttons like the: ' | " | and others which fill up way to much of the screen, I'm really looking for something that just mainly shows numbers in a size that makes it very easy to click them!
Just make the link as I posted it in my first post, as I made a little image to show what I mean ^^
