Hi,

I just installed Molski's AKU3.2 Rom and have big problems making my german keyboard work because the old "Locale" Registry key which did set the keyboard in AKU2 Roms, doesn't work anymore.

I already found out that it has something to do with the "keyboard layout/Preload" settings which are bound to an IME. Problem is these AKU3.2 Roms have only English IME Layout's installed (309) no German's (307).

Is there still a way to make the german keyboard work? I think there must be a way because the HTC Hermes has exactly the same keyboard as the wizard and it is shipped with a AKU3 Rom.

But as I have absolutely no clue, how to get this working it would be great if some registry geniuses and rom specialists could help me.

Thanx a lot for any help on this subject.

The hades language pack works great except for one thing: I still have an english softkeyboard althouth the hades language pack says that it also changes the softkeyboard. Do you use any thirdparty keyboard software with molski's AKU 3.2 for having a german keyboard layout for the softkeyboard as well? Or is there any special setting or registry key which changes this.

Thanks for your help.

Yes I also found out that the Hades language Pack does not set the softkeyboard.

After much research it seems that there is no way to change the softkeyboard unless someone has found the needed rom files from a german rom but it doesn't look like althouth someone has tried with SKTools.

So now I'm using Resco Keyboard Pro which allows me to choose the softkeyboard layout and set it to german. Works great but the downside of it is that it's not free software.
