:confused:

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 !

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

While we are waiting for better solution the buttons can be mapped to right letters wit AE Keyboard Mapper program. I've mapped my samsungs ä and ö buttons with that and they are working as they should.

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 :)

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

When I change the settings like that thread, my keyboard stopped working :D

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.

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 :mad:

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?

webise

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.

I have tried to copy the dll from the german rom, but it's not so simple, the keyboard then refuses to work, i guess the only solution is that the dll is somehow cooked in a new rom and flashed.
I am not a cooker myself, and i have not enough time at the moment to try it, maybe only in one month, if until then nothing is solved i will try it and share with you all the story :D

Regards,

Here is the file from the German ROM BHHA5. Just Rename it from zip to rar and extract. These files are from a dump....

Hope it helps you.

If you want a full German ROM look here...

I've cooked an UK MSHC3 pda rom with zylonite_keypad_Us.dll files which come from a french dump, and does'nt work... :mad:

it may be more complicated than replacing files before converting to BIN? :o

You can try remapping the buttons with PQzII. For the change to qwertz it works fine, but we only have to change the z and y. Hope it is helpful.
