Default 8525 Hardware Keyboard messed up after upgrade to HTC WM6

So, I upgraded my 8525 to the standard HTC WM6 ROM. It's all GREAT except that when using the hardware slideout keybard the symbols are not on their assigned keys.

I must have a diferent country layout somehow?

I've tried a few of the reg hacks that are suggested but none seem to work. Anyone have a any great ideas?

Thanks in Advance

Cingular has a different keyboard layout than anyother HTC reseller, if you have Schnaps you can change the config in advanced settings (not sure about other cooked roms) or you can use a cab fix (HTC custom will let you change it to). The cab fix is attached to this post.

Default bricking your device does void your warranty.

unbelievably fast because most of us read for a few hours before flashing... if you do not know what you're doing you can end up with a 600 dollar paperweight ...and wouldn't 8525 be damn cool paperweight!?

even if you flashed other devices (motherboards, dvd drives, ipod...etc.) but never a pda with a cooked rom, 2 hours spent reading would be a minimal amount of time before flashing ...all mattering on what you read, how fast, and how smart, including mastering the "search feature" ... its up to you to know what you want, how to do it, and not how to destroy your device.

...and isn't the fix for the 8525 keyboard fix on here about a gazillion times?
