[Q] To advanced CM6-latest users with keyboard-layout other than qwerty

---

Hi there,

how did you change your keyboard layout? As there are so much methods to change it, how did you do it? I am wondering if my method is correct:

1) install CM6-latest (miniCM version) with all hotfixes
- Use the files from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=982341

2) install CM7-ActivateSEKeyboard.zip
3) CM7-KeyboardUpdate.zip
4) german_underscore.zip
5) qwertz.zip
6) blacktheme.zip
7) wipe cache
8) reboot
9) set language again to german everywhere where it is possible
10) reboot second time

It seems everything works but:
- under certain circumstances sym menu freezes
- using andoid onscreen keyboard the hardware-keyboard is still qwerty

Either it's a bug to be fixed or I was doing something wrong. So I ask you:
- Did you recognize that, too and live with that?
- Or did you change your keyboard layout in another way and that works perfect and may you so helpful to tell me and others having my problem how!?

Thanks, guys.

If you want a QWERTZ keyboard, just change with root explorer's editor in system/usr/keyboard-config/keyprint.xml
THIS:
<script-name="latin" keylayout="qwerty-en"/>
TO
<script-name="latin" keylayout="qwertz"/>

Then save and reboot.

i still have issues. When I install the qwertz update I still not have the sym funktion to type "ä" or "ü" instead of these symbols i get "*" for typing sym+u. I already replaced the xml files but it didn't wokred.
