THis thread is for people having key mapping issues with SuperOSR or CM:

If you have unlocked your Chacha using HTCdev unlock, install https://market.android.com/details?i...=search_result, run the app to get your CID, then see in the following list the correspondig word.

For example, for CID HTC__044 it would be "steng".

Go to that page: http://goo.im/devs/adlx/chacha/keypads/

Get and flash: chacha-keypad-steng-signed.zip

If you did S-Off, you probably lost your CID, anyway you can try those patches. Name are pretty obvious anyway (countries).

keypad: CID:

ell <= ??;
fra <= HTC__203, HTC__247, ORANG202, VODAP203, VODAP204;
ara <= HTC__J15;
esn <= HTC__304, VODAP304, VODAPD18, BSTAR301, ORANG309;
ger <= HTC__102, O2___102, ORANG216, VODAP102, VODAP110, VODAP120;
ita <= HTC__405, TIM__401;
rus <= HTC__A07;
hk <= ??;
nor <= HTC__Y13;
tur <= HTC__M27;
bopomo <= HTC__621;
cn <= HTCCN701;
aw <= CWS__001; (HTC Status)
tai <= HTC__053;
steng <= HTC__044, HTC__622;

none? <= HTC__001, HTC__016, HTC__032, VIRGI001, HTC__E11, HTC__038, H3G__001, O2___001, ORANG001, ORANGB10, T-MOB005, VODAP001, VODAPE17, VODAP006, HTC__N34;

If you have issues, missing keys or such, please install KeyEvent Display and tell me, on your phone, what is the scancode of the key, what it does, and what it should do.

Hi,
i have qwertz layout, cid is gone cause i flashed with goldcard to manage the htcdev RUU.

I'll try to flash it via cwm and report if it works.

Is there anything else to attend?

Thanks for all the archivements so far. The roms are very nice. Will enjoy them, when kb works.

I'm fckn happy, first method for me to get the kb working, after playing all night with file permissions and layout changes.

umlaute are working, @ at the right place... nice, really nice.
only thing, that is a bit twisted is the dialer. when typing a number with hw-keyboard without fn-key pressed, the numbers are all mixed up,
e.g. the x key(8) gives me a 9
the r(3) leads to a 7.

when entering sim pin, the layout is all correct.

Any idea, which file to modify for that

And thanks again, great work so far.

Cool, I'm glad it helped. Yeah,I know what is wrong with the dialer... I fixed it in the default I've, but it seems I forgot to fix it on the I other :/. OK That goes in the to-do list :)

Yep, it really helped. It was the only fixing, that was working for me.
Now my chacha is usable again;-) used cm7 for a Day now and no bug appeared so far.
To get the dialer working in the german version would be the bonus for me.

greets

I have uploaded a new version of the chacha-keypad-ger-signed.zip in the folder. Hopefully it should be fixed now (report is there is anything that was working before that isn't now).

EDIT: ara, fra, ger, rus, tai, steng updated. Should now have the dialpad working fine.

I have no idea how to fix that :-/... Do you mean the arabic letters are misplaced / you type a key and you get the wrong arabic caracter?

Maybe you could make a relation like that:

X --> A (char that should appear when typing key "X" now appears when typing key "A")

That could be useful, yet I can't promise I'll manage to fix it...

thank you for you kind support here is what you asked me for

This is the Current Layout

Q > OK
W > OK
E > Shows V
R > Shows E
T > Shows R
Y > Shows T
U > Shows Y
I > Shows U
O > Shows I
P > Shows O
A > Ok
S > OK
D > OK
F > Ok
G > OK
H > OK
J > OK
K > OK
L > OK
Z > Shows Shift + ,
X > Shows ,
C > Shows Shift + B
V > C
B > Shift + .
N > Shift + D
M > Shift + J
? > N

There is alot of Arabic char is not exsit in the current layout
lets fix this and i will try to give the missing char like When You Should Press "P" , "Z" , "X" , "." .... etc

Also I found that the "*" and "#" is not working with both Dailer and normal typing

I have the AT&T Status. I can not find my cid with that app, its not showing up after flashing cm7. The 0 doesn't work and all the "Alt" functions are different. What is the right key layout for the "Status"?

Did you S-Off your phone using XTC clip? or Unlock using HTCdev web?

Could you share the /system/usr/keylayout and /system/usr/keychars folders from your stock rom?

Thanks... the truth is I'm not sure how to handle that, because you said that the mapping was correct for english letters... If I change anything, like switching letters, it will affect also English /latin characters :-/. By chance do you know another phone, like G2 / Desize Z, Dext... that could have Arabic support (and work correctly)?

I used the htcdev site. Due to my over excitement 4am I forgot to back up the stock rom.

Could you try all the different files? I¡m not sure what is supposed to be the one for ATT Status (from the list in OP).

Wait hold on. If I am in a number only text field like the dialer the number mapping is crazy, still gotta use the "alt" key to input the correct numbers. Weird.

    hi, I installed the "bopomo" package (due to my cid). The keypad works great in almost every screen.. but I have a problem on the dialer.

    When I enter a number, let's say "3" - it inputs a completely different number (6). When I input "1", I get "7", etc.

    Is there a fix to this available? Would replacing the dialer APK fix this?

    //pxd

    I have updated the bopomo patch. please download again ;).

    (?) button in Arabic layout

    i am asking if {(?) scan code (105)}
    button is coded to type (?) symbol only.
    because in Arabic layout with this keyboard it supposed to type ( ط) and (?)
    can you fix that
