cmEX 0.7: Change keyboard layout from english to german - XPERIA X1 ROM Development

Hi!
Installed the German ROM cmEX 0.7.
Unfortunately the hardware-keyboard is set to english.
how can I change this??
Thanks!
Regards,
James

you can change your keyboard layout in the registry:
HKLM/HARDWARE/DEVICEMAP/KEYBD -> change value of CurLang to 407 (Hex)

In wm6.5 ROMs that makes the FN-Key nearly unusable (on a german X1, but in 6.1 it works fine). I can remember, for my old Herald there is a CAB available which makes the german HW keyboard fully working under WWE-systems. Can anyone making this for Xperia?
Is it possible to use a german 6.1 keyboard driver in an english 6.5 ROM? I could try it with my own ROM, but i don't know all of the necessary files for testing it. Any help would be appreciated.

Keyboard-Layout
Actually the keyboard-layout in registry is set to 1031 (407 hex). still when writing e-mail, sms the layout is english (means y = z, ......)
Any other ideas?
Regards

Did you made a softreset? And is it a german X1 (or a german ROM at an "ausländischen" X1 )?

Sorry, forgot to answer your PM.
Its a bug. Unfortantly the Topaz Input messes with the Keyboard settings of the X1. I will release a version without the keyboard soon.

Keyboard-Layout
Thanks for the answer.
Waiting for the new release.

how to flash SX66 with german T-Mobile Firmware?

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
joy.d
P.S.
it should not be free, i will donate that, Paypal is present ;-)
Best greetings
Joy
: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.

English ROM with a French keyboard

Is it possible to have an english ROM (i-mate, T-mobile, Orange) but install on a French QTEK 9100 and with an operational azerty keyboard ?
Yes and no
Yes it is possible to have an English ROM PDA but the HARDWARE keyboard is french. All you have to do is look for the registry key:
HKLM/software/OEM/Qwerty
Check what the value is in a French device.
Then upgrade to english and change the same key from the english value to the french. This takes care of the Hardware Keyboard.
Regarding the software keyboard, i haven't seen a hack but there are a lot of 3rd party programs that you can use that have their own software keyboard that you can assign the language. I think something like what resco or spb has
Hope this helps
I have the same problem, but I allready flash the rom to wwe and now I don't know the value for the french kayboard Please post the value here
I have also the same problem. I have allready flash the rom to wwe and there is no Reg-Key HKLM/software/OEM/Qwerty :?
Under HKLM/Software/OEM only the following entry:
3rdversion
PhoneSetting
VoiceCommand
Any idea? I have also tried the German Language Pack for WM2005 from Buzz, but it didn't work.
Thanks
My mistake, this reg key applies to the Universal, i think.
Have you tried to search for the keyword QWERTY, AZERTY or whichever through the whole registry?
yes,
I search for qwertz, qwerty, wert - without any result
I find a key \HKCU\keyboard layout\Preload - there is an value "default - e0010409"
I've changed this value to e0010407 - but unsuccessful
keyboardmapper
try this site it has prmapped key board progs settings for diffrent languages

Hi,
I have a french-keyboard QTEK 9100 with the WWE ROM....
i have tried aekmap, but in fact i could not find any .aek file describing the INTERNAL french keyboard of the wizard. The one referenced in the website, in fact, contains tokens not digested by the trial version, and in addition is probably for an external bluetooth keyboard...anybody that already did the job and could help? thanks indeed,
Piero
No AEKMap. No that registry key.

French rom to english

hi I got a french qtek 9100. I want to flash it to english rom but keep the french keyboard maping. can someone help please.
try this ROM it work fine
RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe
flash with any english rom you like, then create into \HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\ new String value caled "Locale" with the value of "040C", and you'll have french laoyout. enjoy.
IT DOES WORK PERFECTLY!
Dear dddrko,
Chapeau!
your solution works perfectly even on my Qtek 9100 with WWE ROM 1.6.7.1, indeed with french HW keyboard.
It is the perfect answer to a number of patches (including aekmap, which misses a complete french keyboard template as far as i know).
Two additional comments:
1. if you want the settings with Totalcommander to survive a softreset, remember to exit totalcommander before the Softreset;
2. the graphical keyboard on the screen remains in qwerty style (perfect to me!)
THQNKS QGQIN!!!! ;-)
Not working
Hi all,
I wanted to keep my french keyboard layout with English rom.
I tried as you described up there, nbut it doesn't work.
ROM : 1.6.7.1.WWE from the xda ftp site.
Thanks for your help
Hi
I confirm this does not work
the slide keyboard is still querty and not azerty
Anyone have other solution
cheers
Please i need the rom too please link me to the download for the eng rom file for vario.
Thanks.
sorry, i have to add that after the move to the 2.8 rom, it doesn't work anymore (at least to me...) sigh...
Hello, sorry to answer to myself:
it works correctly with ROM 2.8, BUT IT IS ABSOLUTELY FUNDAMENTAL THAT, AFTER YOU HAVE CHANGED THE REGISTRY WITH TOTALCOMMANDER, YOU SOFTRESET BY KEEPING THE POWER BUTTON PRESSED FOR 5S! THE STYLUS IN THE SMALL HOLE IS NOT ENOUGH!
I believe this explains a number of problems that various people had...
Hi
Oki it works after following the procedure
Thanks again pzucchel you ve right

English ROM with qwertz keyboard

Hi. I'd just bought HTC touch pro2 and I believe it's for the german market. It has qwertz keyboard. It was flashed with WWE 6.1 ROM ( as far as I can see it's official ROM not cooked) When I press y key it turns out z, symbol keys are all mixed up... I tried keyboard mapping software, but got messed up... and gave up. I need help...some people on other forums suggested that I can flash it with german ROM, but I don't speak german. Anyway, is there a way to fix it in my present software (except keyboard mapper) or can you tell me what to do...maybe I can try cooked ROM in english with qwertz keyboard view? If you can reccommend me any... Thank you in advance (sorry for my english)
I'm using a german Touch Pro 2 called MDA Vario V. When I'm using an english ROM (mostly energy ROMs) I change 2 Registry-Keys and my Keyboard works right with qwertz-layout and all symbols.
change in
HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9\Ime\KeyboardLayouFiles
eT9.Rhodium.wwe.kmap.txt
to
eT9.Rhodium.0407.kmap.txt
--------------------------------------------------
and in
HKLM\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD
change
"CurLang" from value="1033" to value="1031"
hope it helps
greetings
Spikee
Qwertz/qwerty problem solved.
Spikee Thank you very much for the advice. It works great!!!
I have tried these Regedits on my Vario V as well, and while it does fix the Y and Z
issues, there are still some problems. The only way to fix the issue is to replace the included eT9.Rhodium.0407.kmap.txt
file with one that is from an actual German TP2/Vario. Only then did the keyboard act the way to should.
Seems the stock eT9.Rhodium.0407 file from the WWE ROM is not fully compatible
with the T-Mo DE Vario, which has certain KB mods. You can find links to the replacement
file here, just search around some more.
yes, this solves the problem. thankx

keyboard layout problem

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
best
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

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
so did that already solve it or not?
yes it did! just look up the right keyboard layout code, change it in the registry, reboot and it is all set thank you very much!
fantastic, glad to hear it
enjoy
