1. Displaying Japanese text

LetsJapan WM6.1 r07

First impressions:

• LetsJapan turns my menu text really big and spaced-out. This may be actually be a good thing for some, as it lends to finger-friendliness on smaller screens. It unfortunately cuts back on the amount of options displayed at any one time though. Check first screenshot.
• Minor point: it also sets startup orientation as portrait

.

2. Japanese Advanced IME

First impressions:

• Dual text-prediction rocks.
• It breaks SPBKeyboard4's Japanese input. There is no option to enable Japanese input anymore. This worked with previous Japanese SIPs.
• Seems to work with original LetsJapan6.
• Doesn't enable auto-insertion of address/number by entering a contacts name in the To: field of SMS. がっかり.

Wow, way to go, Zgembo! Really looking forward to testing out the fruits of your labors.

Anybody seen this? IME 31J extracted from the Touch HD.

I actually did install it on an English Rom some time ago and it seemed to worked fine for typing/displaying Japanese as per Asukal's instructions. I can't remember if predictions worked though.

Anyway, there is a cab available from the above link.

Oh, please ignore this post if it is not relevant to this thread/or it is old information.

Looking great! I switched over to this setup. Couple bugs/problems:

1) the function keys seem to be mapped differently on my hardware keypad now. Is there any way to get it to be mapped US keyboard style?

2) how do I switch from japanese input to english input? The only way i can figure out how to do it is through making the keyboard romaji and the changing it to 英数. Is there a way to make it default to english input, and then to Japanese input only when needed?

This SIP is new ground to me, so I don't know if these solutions will work, but try and give them a shot.

Install Schap's Advanced Config. There should be an option to change the keyboard layout.

Search through your registry for Option3. Change the data of this reg entry from 1 to D (hexadecimal). Close registry editor, soft reset and see if that did anything.

will give it a shot. I'll let you know what happens.

So something happened and it broke both my HW keyboard and the software one. I could no longer choose ABC in most of the keyboards, and when typing using the HW keyboard, it would input but not show up properly on the screen. Uninstalled the J input for now.

Did it do that after you tried my advice? (If so, sorry!)

softbank settings and mms working

Hi, since Zgembo has been quiet regarding the setting up of MMS, I thought I would share my experiences (sorry if I jumped the gun Zgembo; and also feel free to share your connection experience which may be different to mine)

MMSlite 1.1.303 works fine. See Larsuck's thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=365760

To get the Softbank connection going (which will also work with the softbank flat plan) get these files: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=298031

Install connSBM (non-proxy version) as per instructions. Then you will need a new copy of wifiwake.exe (to replace the one included in the above .zip)

Go here:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=462994&highlight=wifiwake

download and copy to the /windows directory, with the out.xml from the connSBM file. Make sure you RUN the wifiwake.exe (from the windows directory after moving it there) soft-reset.

Now, after that, all should work fine with MMSlite and other things that need to connect to the softbank connection.

However, me wants to get it working with Arcsoft's MMS Composer which is included with most roms by default and is prettier than mmslite and has more features, etc, etc).

So far I have done the following:
Note: this allows for sending messages via Arcsoft's MMS Composer and not receiving so please only follow these instructions if you want to test - otherwise stick to mmslite, cause everything works)


Go to Composer --> menu --> MMS Options
Severs -->New
Server name : mailwebservice.softbank.ne.j

Gateway : sbmmsproxy.softbank.ne.jp
Port number : 8080
Server address : http://mms
Connect via : The Internet
　
Send Limit : 300k
WAP Version : WAP 2.0

(make this default and delete the sample one!!)

Now, edit the registry as follows:

HKLM¥Software¥Arcsoft¥ArcSoft MMS UA¥Config¥mm1
　WAP2DefaultPort : 80
　
HKLM¥Software¥Arcsoft¥ArcSoft MMS UA¥Config¥mm1¥MMSCSetting¥Name : mailwebservice.softbank.ne.jp (make sure it has the final "j"!)
　　
HKLM¥Software¥Arcsoft¥ArcSoft MMS UA¥Config¥mm1¥WspHeader
　Accept-Language : jp
　User-Agent : SoftBank/1.0/708SC/SCJ001 Browser/NetFront/3.3
　Accept-Charset : Shift-JIS, UTF-8, EUC-JP, ISO-2022-JP

adapted from: http://otakumaniax.blog34.fc2.com/blog-entry-16.html
JAPANESE LANGUAGE WARNING

Now, my dilemma: Using the above settings, it is possible to SEND mms messages using arcsoft's software, yet it refuses to RECEIVE messages. I have tried various things, yet are unable to work out how to make arcsoft receive. (It does not even connect to try and receive; it just sits there doing nothing no how many test mails I send from my gmail account)

So, if anybody can solve this, that would be great. Meanwhile, I am stuck with boring old mmslite....


Disclaimer: the above worked for me as much as I described and I take no responsibility if you should get outrageous bills for internet usage/and or you bust your phone through editing the registry.

Thanks for the links, Tora. As far as wifiwake is concerned, I'm just using the default AT&T rom for now, with Larsuck's connection cab posted here. Is there any difference between that and what you posted?

I'm pretty sure it is the same thing. WIFIwake was the program previously used to input the password contained in the SBM connection cab.

And it is RayB's cab. Not mine. I don't want to take credit (or responisbility ) I just started the thread.

Hi, quick question regarding the data connection to softbank

I'm using an unlocked HTC Touch Pro with Softbank,
All I did to get the Softbank internet access is add the Softbank access point: open.softbank.ne.jp with the corresponding password as per this blog post.
I've been using it under the packet-hodai plan for a few months now with no problems although I'm using the 9,800yen plan and recently asked to switch to the 5,700yen plan.

Your instructions are much more complicated, what's the difference with my setup?

Thanks!

Your are talking about internet access, and this thread is talking about MMS access.

Tora201 is talking about getting S!Mail (Softbank's proprietary MMS) working with Arcsoft. Arcsoft isn't built to access S!Mail, so that's why his instructions are complicated. That is also why they don't work perfectly.

Completely unrelated to S!Mail access, the cab file mentioned by Jonathan24 automatically creates the same Internet Access Protocol that your link points to. There is no significant difference between the AP this cab creates and the one you inputted by hand.

If Larsuck's cab works, then fine! I have not tried it. All I know that if you use the method I described then you will need the modified wifiwake. The original one was designed for the X01HT.

As for the post about the password, well -- I think everybody agreed some months ago it was not a good idea to post it around XDA - developers.

Regarding MMS, I am hoping somebody can figure out how to get the "receive" for MMS going under Arcsoft..... then we won't need mmslite anymore! (yay)

I think Zgembo is working on that. He is trying to extract the modified Arcsoft from X04HT. Apparently it somehow works with S!Mail.

Guys!

Does anyone have Japanese IME for QVGA (HTC Polaris)? Could someone share it please? Thank you!

I know it's a big site, but try searching around a little more next time.
http://hn801.hkes.com/Data/SIP/IME_31J_QVGA_F.zip

Thanks larsuck, I tried that, but my problem remained: Kensaku and Tegaki dont work. I read comments to this forum http://asukal.net/blog/?p=96 many people have same problem and there seems to be no solution. Looks like it's a problem with device memory allocation for SIPs. I tried this IME and IME from flinx1 and none of them show those two keyboards. So I was wondering if there's another IME that I can try? Zgembo said in the first post "(Planning to make QVGA version too, stay tuned)" - so I'll wait for that and maybe it will work. Or... i may try another ROM, though I really like the one I have.
