Hello, i will receive in few days an MDA Pro.
I'm French, and first, i will flash the device with a WWE ROM.
But after, when it will be available, i think i'm going to flash it with a French ROM.
My question is: how remap the physical keyboard ?
I think the keyboard will be a QWERTZ mapping.
But if i flash with a WWE ROM or a French ROM, the physical keyboard will not be mapped correctly.
I've seen the tip for the Qtek 9090 (i'm a 9090 Owner), it was a key in the registry to modify, and it was ok.
but, what is the procedure for the HTC Universal ?
Thanks a lot !!!
ok i've found the answer myself, sorry for the mistake...
@deathknight - please share your knowledge, i want to do the same!
best regards, lutz

Brazilian Portuguese Keyboard
Anyone know what's the registry code for Brazilian Keyboard? Portuguese will to too. Thanks.
Spanish keyboard
And the registry for the Spanish layout?
Let's see if we can resuscitate this threat.
Would be a good idea to post the diferent registry settings for the different languajes.
how did you fix this?
I found it somewhere in the net (may be buzz developers)
Spanish layout code:
Registry\LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\Qwerty
And the value should be: 68617
Now I only have access to my UNI. Somewhere in my desktop I have codes for other layouts too; I'll post them when I find them again.

Hello all. I am new to the boards and, I know now, a COMPLETE IDIOT! I bought an MDA Pro with QWERTZ layout (German model). I read all about how GREAT the latest I-Mate ROM is so I flashed and now I am having MAJOR keyboard compatibility issues. As for the letters, only the Y and the Z are switched (so when I hit the "Y" the device types a "Z" and vice versa) but the bigger problem is that ALL the Fn (Function) KeyStrokes are ALSO screwed up. At this point I will take the ROM it came with happily!! I have left an email with the importer I bought the unit from to see if they can assist me.....although I have a feeling I might already know the answer to that! Can ANYBODY offer assistance to me?!?!
Thanks to all who can help, or at least try!!

German Keyboard Working On English Rom
I did not figure this out on my own, I found it on this forum somewhere, but it worked for me!
All Credit Goes To: macznik
"sorry, mea culpa, for Universal is so:
1. for the german keyboard on english ROM
2. get a registry editor (like Resco)
3. search the key [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\Qwerty]
4. edit - Layout in decimal to 66567 (from 66569)
5. softreset
and for other codes......ect
regards"
Hope it worked for you!
Hep. Have been looking around the forum to find a way to change the keyboard layout (Hardware), to Danish.
I simply cant make it work. I have the Live 0.2 rom, and have tried the reg. editing as written in the forum..but no go.
Can someone please give a guide to which rom that I can use if I want a Danish Keyboard - or can someone do anything about the Keyboard issues. (Make some kind of a cab or??) I cannot do it myself, but would really be thankfull.
And - great thing with all this rom biz. I know nothing about it - but loves to jazz up my phone...hehehe

I'm using LVSW version and somehow every softreset reverts \oem\qwerty registry back to uk mapping, manual edit and/or nordic keymapping.cab is useless, it have to be something with LVSW version, because xda live was working with nordic cab...

I have tried to change the registry, but i does not seem to do anything for me. I wonder if the settings somehow can be extracted from wm5?
Look at this post Norwegian Keyboard on WM 6?, it has the cab file for the keyboard attached, this is used for all nordic tytn.
I've just installed xdalive keyboard fix cab-> softreset -> nordic keymap cab -> softreset and now the mapping is correct!

I am wondering the same thing, have tried to search the forum with no luck
are there some who got the xdalive keyboard fix cab and nordic keymap cab?
when you guys find all the solutions to the mapping add them to the wiki, or pm me the list of fixes all nice and neat and i will put them on there
This works on XDA-Live & Black (at least)
Here's the one I use and it works on most of them anyways. Remember to soft reset afterwards.
Whenever I flash a new ROM or do a hard reset I just change the following ONE registry setting.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty]
"Layout"=132116
Why not make a fix_my_qwerty_mapping.reg file and save this on your storage card, content like this (I have no idea how to make a .cab file, but this works fine for me):
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty\]
"Layout"=dword:20414
This is the Norwegian settings, but it doesn't matter for Finnish, Swedish and Danish users - it's all the same mapping. I got a TyTN/Herm 200 and for all I know this could be firmware dependent.
The number "132116" is decimal and found by:
20+countrycode, country code for Norway: 0414. That will be 20414. Converting this hex to dec gives 132116.
(When using the .reg file it writes in hex and therefore 20414, but you can manually enter the number directly into the register using hex if you like.)
Country codes:

Remember to power down/up after applying this registry change - not just a stylus soft reset.

Hello, I've successfully installed WM 6.1 (Kavana / Ricky 318 version) on my Excalibur.
But I have a lof of problems with my French keyboard.
I've tried a lot of things, according to info inside the forum... but it still does not work
1. I only have XT9 on my S620, no ET9 (only 10 languages, without French)
2. The keyboard mapping is not correct
Could you help me with a simple solution ?
Thanks in advance for your support
Ok I've found a first solution : the ET9 multi-language pack is on Mondaco

The AZERTY keyboard mapping (also on Modaco)

Uups, after installing the language files, my sym and caps button stopped working. Anybody else had this problem?
Hi folks,
I've recently installed the WM6.1 For Excalibur WWE with English Only by Kavana 080408, and the ext9.cab.
After changing the xt9, my keypad works fine except the caps lock button.
Is there any fix, or seting thar i should do?
Thanks in advance!
I'm having that same problem. I think it may have died on mine.
Hey guys, read my sig and follow the directions.

CAPS not working on language rather than ENGLISH
I installed the Karvana ROM, and the eT9 full cab. Works all but the CAPS in foreign languages (rather than ENGLISH)
I am Having the CAPS problem too using the PORTUGUESE layout.
BUT, the CAPS works just fine in the ENGLISH language... with the ENGLISH keyboard layout. I tryied to replace the Porgtuguese layout with the ENGLISH, but it seems this is not a "virtual" key map issue. (CAPS still not works).
It appears to be other configuration thing... maybe any other WINDOWS registry conf? any ideas?

I have an idea... use Rickwyatt´s... Portuguese layout works great. It only needs to change 6 bytes of an TXT file. If you want i may post it here. As far as i know, Ricky´s rom is the only one that works great with portuguese (brazilian) layout. I´ve decided to give up Kavana´s because i was almost going nuts with all the keyboard issues.

yes there is.
Guide yourself to the \windows folder, find the file "eT9.Excalibur.0409.kmap"
Drag it to your desktop.
Open it with Notepad.
replace existing with this:
Code:
{0xBC , ; [B];[/B] 0xff} // 0xBC = VK_COMMA
{0xBE . : [B]:[/B] 0xff} // 0xBE = VK_PERIOD
, towards the bottom.
Before saving it, you might have to check the properties of the file and remove the read-only attribute.
Then save and transfer it back to your phone.
Reboot
Just insalled kavana rom, and et9 full, caps don't work! No one knows a solution?
I use German layout-->QWERTZ
All is perfect except that

update---> reinstalling it solved (firt time on storage, second time on device... maybe is this)
Caps lock problem. =/
Hello all,
i have read through a lot in the forum and have alerady flashed and tweaked a lot my i780 with my readings of your Forum. (after doing the same for my TyTNII !))
Bravo to all BTW.
I have a French i780 with an AZERTY keyboard.
I have flashed with the DXHC4 PDA & Phone ROM found here. Since then I have a QWERTY keyboard when the physical keyboard is AZERTY
I have tried the registry edition in order to modify the keyboard mapping to 040C code in the 3 locations described in the different posts without success as it rendres inactive the keyboard.
I tried the different combinations etc...
Here are the exact lines :
in hkey_current_user\keyboard layout\preload string default e0010409 changed to e001040c
\\\HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout\Active to 0000040c
Is there an issue with a dll or someting in addition ?
Also, I do use RealVGA in 96dpi with an English pack as the french pack is trashing the i780
Any idea is more than welcome !
Hello the i780 specialists ?
Any Idea what registry key to update ? or which driver ?
do you think a cab like the one for the Kayser can be compiled ?
Thanks
While youre on it, please get us the key for Swedish keyb as well
I flashed with the english ROM as well, and....
I am pretty sure there must be a way and it would be great to know the right registry location - would like to change mine over to QUERTZ as I am having an English rom with a German keyboard...
And ideas anyone?
Thanks
Alex

Yes it work but i creates a very irritating keybaord lag when using the keys that is mapped with AE keyboardmapper.
Yep, I have seen this tutorial, but I must admit that I am not at all interested in the software emulation. I 'd rather wait for a proper OS / registry / hw solution
No news guys ???
First of all, I'm no export in this and want to apologize for my english, cause I'm german.
Me too wants to change the keyboard layout as I have an english rom with qwerty and want to get back my german qwertz-layout.
As far as I've found out there is an registry entry under "HKLM/Hardware/DEVICEMAP/KEYBD/DriverName" which with my device maps to a dll named "zylonite_keypad_us.dll"
This file seems to be located in the ROM. I couldn't copy it for editing. Maybe someone can develop an idea how to deal with this.

Do you have an I780?
If yes, which of these mentioned steps did you do?
This is not yet working for me. At the Moment the hardware keyboard doesn't work at all...
Edit: So, keyboard is working again. But "z" and "y" are still "swapped". So still not the German- QWERTZ
Same here, ive got an azerty i780, but this tip does'nt work for me
It doesn't work at all
The keyboard is rendered NON active by modifiying these reg keys / strings ...

When I change the settings like that thread, my keyboard stopped working
I use the code: 041d for Swedish.
Mind helping out what I need to do? I followed the instructions from that page but the keyboard just stopped working, the hardware keyb that is.
In my humble opinion the problem is that when we change the registry keys we are telling windows to use a different dll that simply is not there, and so the keyboard becomes inactive. The solution is that someone with a German WM6 gets the german dll and shares it with us.
Regards,
Luís
Before flashing my azerty orange fr i780, i saved HKLM sytem tree, and the dll is the same.
The only difference in HKLM tree is :
\\HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout\Active
040c for azerty french
0409 for US
But doesn't work on my device

Or a Swedish ROM since there are a few of us that would need the swedish dll then
I still got the German phone and intend to upgrade to UK ROM. What dll exactly do you guys need?
dll is : zylonite_keypad_Us.dll
But totalcommander refuses to copy the file

Do you have a registry editor on yout I780?
Then look at: HKLM/Hardware/DEVICEMAP/KEYBD/DriverName
There should be a .dll listed.
I guess thats the one we need. But I fear, as webise said, that you can't copy this file from your windows folder. As far as I've seen this file is in ROM.
