as any one already found a way to change german to english on mda pro sold in germany t-mobile
i'm also extremely interested into this topic.
i'll have the MDA Pro in about a week and want to try alt least 2 things:
1. english rom upgrade
2. switch the Z key with the Y key.
Thanks for the interest !
i have my german mda pro since today.
Problem is the warrenty sticker is in front of a screw.
So i dont know if we can switch eh Y and Z
i was hoping that it will be something like a pc keyboard ... that we can remove only the keys and not the entire keyboard.
mine arrives in a week ... so i still have to wait
do you like the german version or waiting to upgrade to english one ?
i am happy with it,
i will only start working on it till my xda 2 is sold.
in the mean time ill try to make it english and look at the keyboard
To remap the keyboard, use this: http://ae.inc.ru/aekmap_t.html
Takes a while to learn how it works, but works like a charm.
You will have to create your own keymap file.
I was succesfull to change the keyboard from QWERTZ to QWERTY
I wont recommend it, cause the size of Y and Z are a bit different.
The Z is ok and u wont notice, but the Y has 0,5 mm difference on the sides.
U can get used to it very fast though. And u dont really notice it.
This all without voiding warrenty stickers..
Now i need a english rom to enable QWERTZ ->QWERTY
excellent news ... can you give some detailed step by step
thanks
I also changed in the german rom the keyboard from qwertz to qwerty
by editing the registery
hardkeyboard show qwerty now, the on screen keyboard is still qwertz
but i dont use that one so much.
now for a english rom update...
maybe you can try using one of these keybord skins
http://www.buzzdev.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=24&Itemid=1
The most difficult thing seems that we need an english ROM with the german keyboard.
Maybe someone who tried something like this have some answers.
So Guys Can I change the Germany Rom to English Rom on the MDA PRO, and after just change the keyboard settings? I am very interested in ,coz I would like to buy one soon. 8)

Hi everyone!
Many people out there from all over the world have upgraded their Artemis to Windows Mobile 6, thanks to people who are working hard on cooking nice ROMs for us. These people are used to a specific keyboard layout, many languages are using special characters too.
It would be nice to have a way to change the keyboard layout : something like easy installing CABs or a how to on what to change in the registry, what to remove on the storage, or whatever way to have our own keyboard on theses WWE ROMs.
Is it possible?

Hi Romano2k,
The only thing that i have found was this regkey:
http://wiki.modaco.com/index.php/Windows_Mobile_5_Registry_Tweaks
But afaik does this regkey only work for the 'hard-keyboard' and not for the software-keyboard, so this answer won't help you a lot...
On my P3300 nothing changed with these keys and nothing happend when i changed the keys in 'HKCU\Keyboard Layout' In another forum i found a thread and they are saying you need a third-party software to change the software-keyboard...but for me it's no problem to use the english keyboard...but french keyboards are much stranger (i think french keyboard are the strangest keyboards that exists) and so i can understand your problem
Cheers
Peter
Love your reply's title
I agree with you, the french keyboard is strange, I wish they were only DVORAK keyboards all over the world! But I need my "é" "à" and so on... I'm sure there's a way to change the software keyboard!
Vive LA France
As far as I know it's a dll file that you would have to change. Never tried in WM6 to replace it, in WM 2003 it wasn't possible. Resco Keyboard would be an alternative if you don't want to try to change the layout yourself.
ups...
My french isn't that well....long time ago since school
I found a cab for the german keyboard, maybe you will find out more when you take a look inside this cab ? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=321236
Found French Keyboard ?
Heya,
maybe this could help you ? No idea if it works because i'm from Liechtenstein and i don't need a french keyboard

And for us in Greece?
Hi all,
Is there any way to change the keybord to contain Greek characters???
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

That was happend because this cab permanently disable xT9 dictionary, and it's completly normal.

Yes, for now this is the only way to have T9. I'm also waiting for someone who can develop xT9 lang, because as you, I don't know how

Hi,
I've done some work on the keyboard cab available on the diamond forum and adapted it to the touch HD.
I've also addressed some issues that the diamond version suffers from.
Here's a list of what's been done:
Version 1.00:
- Graphics for Compact Qwerty & Phone Keypad have been recreated to accomodate the HD
- Landscape mode integrated into the cab
- Fixed kdb files for Full Qwerty, Compact Qwerty and Phone Pad
- Hebrew doesn't replace Italian anymore! Instead, it is added above Italian
- Hebrew-related files and registry keys are named properly with the correct codes and names and according to the convention in other language-related files.
- T9 works partially. It will learn the words you use and will suggest according to that. Unfortunately I couldn't find a compatible t9 dictionary (and believe me I tried!)
Installation instructions:
1. Download the attached CAB
2. Copy to your memory card via ActiveSync
3. IMPORTANT: Using Schap's Advanced Task Manager (or any other capable program), kill the process SIPGT_app.exe
4. Run the CAB
5. Soft reset
I've tested this with a UK 1.14 ROM and the free hebrew support.
I do not recommend installing this alongside Eyron (didn't try) as it also attempts to modify the native keyboard and would probably conflict.
Congratulations you have a (almost) native HD hebrew keyboard!
For tactile feedback (ala Eyron) I recommend installing snailslug's great TouchResponse (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=450256) you can configure it to work only when the keyboard is open and the stylus is in and it provides very good feel without slowing down the device.
On the T9 front, I'd be happy if anyone could help me out. If you could get me some hebrew ldb dictionary files from ANY phone with T9 it might help me decipher this evil proprietary format.
I'd like to thank Alex for the original diamond cab and also nir36 and everyone who contributed to the development of the free hebrew support.
(Note that the attached cab is provided as is and I take no responsibility in case your device bursts into flames.)
Cheers!
Thanks!
how do you change from hebrew to english? there is an option to do it with the ABC->T9 button? I'm using the txt files from Eyron mui.cab to replace the Italian in my device but it seems to have some kind of bug when i'm replacing it from english to hebrew - the kbd will stuck for 5 minutes every time! and there is no half qwerty or phone pad option...
I'll try your version soon and will report back to you.
Good job!
I'll try it out today and let you know how it works.
tnx very much !!!!
daniel
Please post your skins.
Hi. just checked your files - great work!
I used to extract the files from Eyron cabs and use them on my device, but it was good only for the full qwerty - and it replaced the Italian on my device, your solution is much better.
and now - for the T9 thing - it works only in half qwerty and phone pad modes, not in the full qwerty mode.
any way - great work. you made a great solution for the free-hebrew community
*Big* thanks. Works perfectly!

No there isn't. It's impossible to implement. the only way to switch languages with ezinput is through the menu..

what do you mean?
In full qwerty it would only suggests word completion (it has nothing else to do)

well I only needed to change 4 files. here they are

u could probably rip the T9 words off of it...
Does it also support HTC Touch Diamond?
If not, where can i find the native hebrew kewboard for the Diamond?
Thanks!

Thanks I already have this file and unfortunately it looks very different from the HTC files. I also have another one from Sony Ericsson which looks more like that HTC ones but I couldn't get it to work.
Still haven't given up though
Nice!

Installtion Failed
I've tried to run the cab in my HD but it says: "Installtion was unsuccessful. the program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system premissions", what can i do?
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 !

hope all is clear...
I didn't find any TP2 version on Eyron's site.
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

any bugs ? (opera etc.)
any extras ? (hebrew manila ? hebrew contacts scroll bar ?)
what's the difference in memory consumption ?

Eyron Hebrew for TP2
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).
Now for people that don't use english a whole lot, these problems may not matter that much, but for me they do...

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...

Is there anyway of combining the FN key with another key for the AEK language toggle?
