HTC S620 (Excalibur) and T9... - HTC Excalibur

Does anybody know a way to install T9 or the newer version from the Dash on the S620? I really like the word-completion feature of my other smartphones and PPC's.
Thanks!

we'll probably have to wait until someone extracts the extrom of the dash rom

Careful what you wish for

why did you buy the S620 if it is to put T9 on it?
The only benefit of this smartphone is the full qwerty keyboard, it sounds a bit strange to want to restrict yourself to the numeric pad to type your messages?

It's actually the newer xT9, you're not restriced to the numeric keys -- it predicts as you're typing words with the qwerty keyboard. Future versions might be more useful, but I find it more of a hinderance now. There's no way to configure it or edit the dictionary, it kicks in when you don't necessarily want it to and memorizes passwords, as well as showing them while you're entering them. Where ever the dictionary resides, mine is full of typos and passwords. Would be nice if you could uninstall or just shut it off. You can press ALT then SPACE and switch to just letter entry, but at some point it'll come back...

I understand that T9 is directed more towards standard phone keyboards, but I use it on my Hermes all the time. When typing a long email, the word completion can save time.

T9 dictionary edit
I am super annoyed by wrong words being added to the T9 dictionary!
I tried using the msT9Ed.exe, but it seems to not find the correct file.
I did find a file called "eT9Cdb.cdb" in the Windows folder, but don't know if this is the right thing to edit.
Anyone found something lately to edit the T9 dictionary?

newer xT9

adding a T9 (Polish) at Artemis Touch 3.0 and others?

Hi,
I just flashed my spv artemis with Artemis Touch 3..
All fine but... I'd like to use alpha-numerical Touch Keypad when writing texts,etc. The problem is that there are few T9, but obviously not a Polish one. I don't know how to upload a T9, where to take it from or at least deactivate the T9 feature at all...
Any feedback mates?
thanks
Polish T9 is not a problem, but Polish xT9... that is the problem... More about XT9 input, you can find here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=343106
For disable xt9 use THIS cab
Thanks a million!
You brought me some hopes accodrding to the lack of Polish XT9. The thread seems to be quite fresh.
The *.cab unfortunately messed something up, disabled the 12-buttons Keypad and turned it into a qwerty one. Strange. Even resetting haven't helped.
Anyway I uninstalled it and all fine now.
I've noticed a simple button on the keypad tha allows you to disable the XT9 Is that thanks to the cab or it has always been there? dunno
I suppose that the best temporary resolution would be installing a keypad supporting the old T9, install a POL one and wait for some tough brains to develop the Xt9 translation (as I am not a tough brain able to help in any means...)
cheers

Which S620 Version?
I'm not sure which S620 version I have -- it is European and has the QWERTY layout, with the symbols for the British Pound, US Dollar, and Euro on the J, K, and L keys respectively.
I have the latest KAVANA WM6.1 ROM installed (GREAT!). However, I believe I mistakenly installed the US English Dash key map, which works great for the letters a-z, but some of the symbols do not match the keys (FN-Q is % instead of !, FN-N is & instead of @, etc.). I'm guessing this is a UK English keyboard, since I bought this S620 from eBay and it has a 220V charger. Anyway, any ideas how I get the map to match all the symbols on my keyboard?
I've done quite a bit of searching different threads on this forum but have not so far been able to find the answer.

It looks to be a UK or British keyboard. The British pounds symbol is on one of the keys. That's a sure sign that it's not a US keyboard.
Any uk keyboard mapping support
hey all, is there a uk keyboard mapping cab file yet?
Check in your \Start Menu\My Tools\Extras
do you have a file called "Excalibur eT9 Changer" if you do....click on it and choose the respective layout you need.
You can pick from:
UK Excalibur KeyMap
USA Excalibur KeyMap
Spanish Excalibur KeyMap
Portuguese Excalibur KeyMap
German Excalibur KeyMap
Italian Excalibur KeyMap
If not i can upload the the files needed.

Which Rom are you using??
Key mapp works
i installed the full mapping cab and all is good now. Also, i have no 'my tools' in the start menu. i installed the kavana 6.1 rom.
When I do a long press-and-hold on the period and comma keys, I don't get a semi-colon or colon... just a period or comma. But when I do alt-period or alt-comma, then I do get the semi-colon and colon. I think these are the only keys this happens on, at least that I've seen so far. Anyone else?
Yes, it's a fairly common thing with the new ROMs. Neither of the t9 fixes will help you with it.
thanks guys worked like a charm

Dutch T9 Working on Duttys ROM 1.8 & 1.9 & 1.9b!

I dont know if this was the right thing to do to place this thread here, but I thought it will get the most attention here because this has been a huge problem for many people..
After alot of figuring out, I finnaly got my Dutch T9 working on my sweet HTC Touch HD with Duttys Rom 1.9b.
This is the way to do it:
Download these files from my server, place all the files in your windows directory of your HD:
http://boomkamp-ict.nl/dutcht9.rar
Next you start up a Registry Editor (I used Kilmist Registry Editor), then you make the following changes to your registry:
(For the people that are not familiar with editing the registry, make sure you use the string value when adding these values)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9]
"AvailableLanguages"="0113,0109,010C,0107,0110 ,010 A"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\Sip\KdbFiles]
"0B13"="spd.5x4.Dutch.kdb"
"0A13"="spd.4x4.Dutch.kdb"
"0C13"="spd.Lqwerty.Dutch.kdb"
"0D13"="spd.Pqwerty.Dutch.kdb"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\Sip\Language KeyboardIDMapping]
"0113"="0913"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\LdbFiles]
"0113"="NLlsUN_xt9.ldb"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\IME\KDbFiles]
"0613"="hpd.5x4.Dutch.kdb"
After this you do a soft-reset.
I am unable to change the language in the Touch Input Setting, but you need to change the language in the "pop-up menu" from the keyboard.
Now you can enjoy your Dutch T9!
A thanks is appreciated
Greetingz Coen Boomkamp.
didn't work for me, the keyboard is still messed up. When using abc, all is well, but when using xt9 the letters are messed. When type the letter 'l' i get a dot ('.'). And type letter 'm' i get nothing.
Any screenshots to show what the keyboard layout looks like plz? Thanks

Same problem here. The option 'Dutch' shows, but the dictionary of xt9 isn't recognizing the words. Thanks for the effort though
My Phone Keypad..
Here you can see my Phone Keypad, with Dutch selected, and typing a dutch word with my working T9.
could you try the full qwerty keyboard to see if you got the same problem i have?
I use always this keys, not yet testet with this rom.

When i turn to abc in full qwerty all the letters are ok.
all these settings are in dutch

that's the whole problem, I use t9 on full qwerty, because i can type sooooooo much faster. With all the long words in the dutch language it saves me more than 50% typing time, because after 4 or 5 words all i have to do is press space. So concluding..... no solution for the dutch t9 yet for ezinput 2.0

Free Hebrew support for TP2

Did anyone find a Hebrew support package that works on the Touch Pro2?
I tried Eyron, PDAC, Paragon (LEng) and badnimits but non of them seems to work
With all of them I tried the basic support without UI translation but still no luck.
also looking...
for the hebrew support
Same, Need help =D...
Rbroudo and Coneman23.
add me at MSN
[email protected]
let's try and sort things out together...
OK, We have a winner !!! OSM is the man
After HR. I installed:
1) OSM Hebrew package
2) AEKMap for with the updated TP2 Hebrew layout for hardware keyboard support
3) Finger Keyb for Hebrew soft keyboard support
Almost everything is working great & the device response is hardly effected.
Two things I have noticed:
1) Known issue - Opera is showing Hebrew LTR
2) In text messages I receive sometimes digits are displayed in Arabic I guess this is font dependent
didn't get it, if you're looking for FREE hebrew - why check out eyron & pdac!?
anyway, I tried the PDAC with the registry changes I directed you to before at pocketpcfreak - and it WORKS !
second, just TODAY i recieved an email fro EYRON's support saying that you can download a trial version of hebrew FOR TP2 from their site.
wanna try it out ?
Yep why not

Its not so much the "free" as finding a light Hebrew support.
Coming from the TYTN with its challenging memory configuration finding a light Hebrew support made HUGE difference.
Today even though the TP2 has much more memory I don't see a reason waisting it on something as basic as reading and writing in Hebrew.
ok, here we go... i'll try my best:
go to
HKLM/software/Tegic/eT9/XT9suportMSSip and change the value to 0
then, hop over to:
HKLM/system/currentcontrolset/control === here you need to change 2 values:
the first: layouts/e0010409/imefile change the value there to windows/compime.dll
the second: layouts text change the value there to COMP IME
reset and you're ready to go !
all credit to harvey from pocketpcfreak forum
hope all is clear...

And TBH, I dont give a **** ^^..
The free hebrew package that is offered above in this thread is way better, doesnt slow down your device, and is compatible with everything

OK, I installed it, it looked good at first, and is OK in general, BUT:
Caps shift/lock is disabled on hardware keyboard for english typing, and the cursor is a few spaces away from the place that it should be located when typing an email (again in english).

also tried - i can confirm all of the above.
also - if you have the regional settings set to hebrew the eyron will not let any .net cf based apps work ! you must change to english.
btw- p.d.a.c have released a .cab file to fix the "fun" button problem with the hardware keyboard.
in short, seems the free hebrew support is better than the rest but does anyone know of fixes for the mentioned problems ? i.e opera ltr & arabic fonts instead of digits ?
Good for start...

typing Chinese in WWE Roms?

Hi all, I've been digging in xda-developers for some time for a software to input Chinese characters, let it be in SMS, or even composing emails in WWE rom.
So far I learned that Droid can only read but cannot write.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=469199 this link here is either dead or no people know the answer.
I even tried the msjh.cab but I don't know how to input in sms.
So I brought this here, maybe anyone can show me something?
do you want to input Chinese by pinyin or strike? also, do you want to input simplified or complicated Chinese? I have a few software like A4, PlumSIP6_1008 for you which are for Chinese simplied.
finally there's reply
I need pinyin simplified input. But so far I haven't see anything that can input Chinese Characters in eg SMS.

is it? I tried HelloNasty's rom before. But XannyTech still the best (personal opinion). Anyway, is there any other ways?
Chinese Input
You should try - CE-Star Standard for WM5/WM6
http://www.mobem.com/products/Personal.php
Various versions available, which include Pinyin, Stroke, Handwriting recognition (which I bought, but don't use).
Has worked perfectly on WM6.1 and WM6.5 Xannytech ROM.
Switching between WM6.5 keyboard and the CE-Star keyboard is a little slow, but works well. Also toggle between CE-Star English mode and pinyin mode sometimes a little irritating. Suggest that once Pinyin Mode is working then switch to WM keyboard for English and not use CE-Star for English.
Chinese Input PS
PS When you install CE-Star it will change your language settings to Chinese, so things like GoogleMaps will start to display all menus in Chinese, Just set Language to English in Regional settings, and everything is back to normal.
