I have sussesfully updated my German HTC Herald to WM6 (big thanks to XDA forums and its helpful users), but i got a problem with the keyboard.
The layout of my HTC is German, while the WM6 is English and "blue" keys are almost all messed up. Is there any way to fix this?
Thanks in advance!

I found this: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Changing_Device_Language
but sorry for me being noob, i tried to create a new value named Locate and in the string value i input 0409.
For US layout (QWERTY):
HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\Locale = 0409 (REG_SZ string)
Doesn't work. When i try to edit that entry, it looks like:
Name: Locate
String: 0409
I must have done something wrong @____@
Could you tell me how to add the entry correctly, since i am totally noob for regs things.

Make sure it says "locale", not "locate". It was probably just a typo, but still...

Still nothing. I softreset after each try.
Can you explain to me what does the (REG_SZ string) mean? Do i have to add it somewhere?

Same issue here.. My Herald has an AZERTY keyboard. The blue keys are correctly set, but not the letters... Is there any way to manually modify the letters position on the OS ? (not sure i'm being clear.. lol) I have also tried a GERMAN keyboard fix in addition to edit the registry as found on related posts, but nothing has changed at all... :confused:
at least I haven't screwed it more ! :rolleyes:

I am just wondering, have you ever done this before on a Herrald? Or just heard it has been done or done it with other model?
I am not browsing this forums frequently so when i come here with a problem, i am usually in big need of help and do spend sometime on searching. Just i can't do it as well as most users here who know from top to down this page. ^^
So please help me with me details!
