different keys on keypad

cdfun · Jun 16, 2007

I am using cingular 8525 with a Dopod_asia_wwe firmware. I found that some keys("." + key) on the keypad doesnt match with the OS's.

such as "." + W = @ instead of "!"

I tried to flash Australia's Jasjam version, same stuffs happened. Only when i used Cingular's firwmware I am able to get away with it.

Wonderring if there is anything i can solve this issue. e.g. key match by replacing some OS files?

Please do a search, use the search at the bottom of my signature this has probably been answered more than any other Hermes question.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\Qwerty]
"Layout"=dword:263177 change this to "Layout"=dword:132105

the above is the solution found.. trying to test it.

use the second one

also, dont forget to let the phone sit for a minute, or put it to sleep for 20 seconds before soft resetting, or hold down the power button and turn it off that way... if you dont do one of these then there is a good chance that your registry change wont save...
