Freedom Pro BT Keyboard - HD2 Accessories

Hey there,
Does anyone also own a Freedom Pro Keyboard ? It works to install the ****ty Firmware but i cannot connect the Keyboard with, so that the User defined Shortcuts are unable to manage .
They (according to their FAQ) know the Problem, but their solve doesnt
work.
So my question to you guys is if you solved this problem.
thx a lot for any helpful answers

I have had nothing but trouble with Freedom keyboards - I tried the Freedom Pro, but I could only get it to do the basic keyboard functions with my HD2, no special buttons or characters. I sold it to my wife who uses it with her Blackberry without any problems at all - possibly this is an issue with WM becoming defunct, developers can't be bothered to produce proper software for the platform any longer.
I remember I had issues with the Universal 2 before that - again, it works ok as a basic keyboard with the HD2, but both keyboards actually stopped working if I loaded the proper drivers!!
Unfortunately, with the departure of Stowaway/iGo, Freedom are in a monopoly position in this market.
Bottom line - if you want a basic keyboard of a good size and ease of use, it's ok, but don't imagine you are going to get fancy features based on my experience.

Ok, thx anyway for information ..
i bought it because of the ability to define Shortcuts
i think i sell it on ricardo / Ebay ..
but i've seen some other Keyboards somewhere in a I-net-Shop.
so hopefully i will find some handy Gear
update:
is it possible to inactivate the WM HID Software ?
maybe this would help .. or try another Bluetooth Stack ?
ok again update:
maybe they fixed something, but i downloaded a few minutes ago
the Firmware (its the File for Broadcomm BT Stack, message to all noobs like i am
installed it again and , hey , it works !!
thx because i was going to be angry ....!!

I cannot get it to work on the Kaiser, has anyone tried this yet?
Won't install for me either. Says it's not intended for this device.
I'm running v3.0 Sleuth. Could be it doesn't like WinMo 6.1, but I have no way to verify that unless I reflash.
I have a t-mobile Wing and it doesn't work either. I think it is because all the phones listed as supported are smartphones (without touch screen).
Anyone know a work-around install for touch screen based units?
Just look at the name of the file it installs: SP50.cab = SP= Smartphone.
I've adjusted the CAB a little to allow it to install on a Kaiser. But when installed it's not 100%.
It installs, you can run the MSNDirect.exe through File Explorer, but as the controls are geared towards SmartPhone, it's not all that usable
Perhaps someone with additional skills can tweak it.
Is it possible for someone to tweak the program to be more touch friendly?
I'm pretty bummed about this. I've had a SPOT watch for years and would really like to have it on my Kaiser.
I have a Dash sitting on a shelf at home, that my wife didn't want, but I really can't switch to a Dash for MSN Direct.
its work for me
samsung b7320
but no wethr for iran .......
sucks!!!
but rep+++

Wow I didn't even know this service was still around...I used to have one of the watches, they were pretty cool.
This does not pertain to Kaiser Rom Development. Please post questions like this in the Kaiser General section in the future.
Thank You

Installer based app for the HTC Touch Diamond

It would be very good to see an Installer based application for HTc Touch Diamond.
For people that do not know what Installer is, it is an application for the iPhone that downloads and installs other application on the phone.
And since the Diamond has WIFI I think it would be nice to have this kind of app.
So anyone what to make this kind of app?I will be happy to donate.
P.S Since it is a windows mobile phone it already has a million apps.
oh i would love the guy who make that happen.
Diamond + EvolutionRGB (iphone "game" you can get mith the installer) would be the last thing i need for my diamond. except getting tomtom worked
If I had some experience in writing application I would have tried to make it myself , but I have absolutely no experience
most sites offer a cab file which is relatively easy to install
the app would never work because it would require all developers to have the database in the app or accessable by the app
to unfeasable
the onyl reason iphone can do that is because apple controls everything and distributes via apple
so hence iphone can get them
not gonna happen on wm
You are probably right, I know its easy to install software on wm with cab files,but Im just saying that it would be great and easier
ya would be but
databasing would be nigh unmanagable... unless u get something like linux packet distro's
even so seems to be a lot of work for little effect
are u sure that there is no way to creat anithing similar to the installer.app?
a prog for wm just tu enter these "sources network". i thnink these iphone users calling the thing theyr doin "jailbreaking" and that doesn't sound very legal either.
pls can anyone tell me it is possible.....and if not then pls explain exatly why. so i can stop dreaming of it
thx in advance
Set up some kind of xda-repository (spelled right) just like I see on Linux communities ...
I will be in moscow in a mouth and a I know a few good developers there a might talk to them
Is AppToDate not along the lines of what you're looking for..? Or at least a starting point..?
Google it to find out more (is liked to the iPhone thingy) and take a look at:
http://www.modaco.com/content/apptodate/267096/download-apptodate-supported-applications/
Seems a good idea to me - although at the same time I can never imagine enough people signing up to it!

logmein keyboard issue **SOLVED**

o.k. There seems to be two ways to solve this.
If you want to keep the software keyboard do this:
go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...2&postcount=36
1. Download & install the KforTouchPro app.
2. Launch KforTouchPro (It is installed into the Games folder)
3. Click the Switch to M$ IME button.
4. Click Minimize in the lower right corner
5. Launch Logmein using PIE
6. Type away using your hardware keyboard.
If you only use the Hardware Keyboard and do not want to use KforTouchPro:
This is a simple Regedit.
[HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e001 0409]
(MS IME mode)
Ime File = \windows\compime.dll
Layout Text = COMP IME
-or-
(HTC T9 mode)
Ime File = \windows\eT9ime.dll
Layout Text = eT9 IME
WOO HOO!!!!!!!! Thank you very much to KevinGibert, fhsieh, and Colorado_al

I am using pie on an at&t Fuze. The keyboard does not respond? I have seen several folks on here that say they use logmein.
Is this a fuze issue or a logmein issue?

Same issue, on my TouchPro, with stock ROM and now with Elite ROM, same issue.
Anyone got any work around?
Same problem. Since my previous device was a Touch, I never missed/used a slide out keyboard. The keyboard works just fine on the Kaiser. I'm going to question Logmein on this issue.
glad to see i am not alone! I have been having the same problem
Yeah, one thing I dont understand is that the virtual keyboard from the apps doesnt work either...?
Also what Cab are you guys using for the remote client?
RACtrlCE?
I'm having the same issue, I think it would help if we all submitted a support ticket.
Ah, crap. Me too.
There is a workaround:
If you change your input method to the default WM keyboard by pressing to the right of the keyboard icon and choosing "Keyboard" before you start the session, you will be able to use the soft-keyboard. Still no hardware keyboard.
It sucks, but at least it works. If I can't have a fully functional LMI setup on my FUZE, I'm returning it.

No go... that didn't work for me. I submitted a ticket and the tech did not understand what the problem was, I resubmitted. this is going to have to get resolved soon.
Nice, keep us posted, thanks for taking the time to make a ticket =)

No prob, will do.
Fix
Here's an app someone made in another thread. Basically the reason the hardware keyboard won't work with some legacy apps is because of the way the touch pro's auto completion system works. This app lets you switch it off.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2791652&postcount=36
Has anyone had the opportunity to test this app yet? I dont have my fuze with me today because I was kind enough to swap phones with my wife today to see if she wants to upgrade from her BB Pearl.
I would love to know if this works so I can update the first post with the info.

Make sure you're not using T9. On the QWERTY KBD, there is a switch for ABC - T9. Make sure it says ABC, then switch keyboards, and try it again.
Not sure, but worth a try.
I just tried the above posted CAB and it still does not work. The only keys that work... and they worked prior to the CAB were the arrow keys and the Del key.
Al,
Which ROM are you using?
I tried with this CAB in the past, didnt help.
T9 is one of the first thing I disable as well...
I just tryed again with Elite ROM, no changes. I can use shift/tab/del/enter/arrows, but no letters/numers/special characters =(
Just spoke to Support, they know about the issue, it has been escalated but there is no fix at this time nor is there a timeframe for an update.
Just wait till more people get there hands on FUZEs from AT&T, then they will blow their FUSEs!
So right now the best thing I can think of is to enable the onscreen keyboard (OSK.EXE) in windows and place a shortcut on ur quick lauch. What a shame... that we have this nice slideout keyboard and no use for it!
I feel bad for the people who pay for logmein pro, although I am sure they have more influence than I do as a free user.

That would me me... Unfortunately, I don't think I influenced anyone during that call. Not to say that 200 - 300 support tickets for the same issue wouldn't either. IMO I think anyone having problems with the TP keyboard and logmein should report it to Logmein whether they pay or not, it might get them to move on it a bit faster.

I just submitted this just now...
Hello, I am currently unable to use the built-in keyboard of my new phone in Windows Mobile 6.1.
My phone is a HTC Touch Pro also known as the ATT Fuze, I and other user of the same phone all have the same issue.
I am told it`s a known Issue, can I expect a patch/workaround or a newer CAB to address this issue?
Thanks
Nicolas

You might try the software found in this post:
http://www.forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2791652&postcount=36
It changes the weird raphael IME to a default one. Works for me in PocketGBA and even DOSBox and TomTom.
If it works, maybe you encourage the author to open a thread especially for this software as I searched quite a while to find a workin solution for the strange keyboard behaviour.

Freedom Mini BT Keyboard character mismatch

Hello,
I am trying to use my (German) Diamond with the old (English) Freedom Mini Bluetooth Keyboard. See http://pocketnow.com/index.php?a=portal_detail&t=reviews&id=725
I could not find any drivers for this keyboard on the net anymore, but pairing does work fine without, basic writing is also possible (only z and y is switched). Though I have major problems with the remaining keyboard layouts, as almost all additional characters (!"§$%& etc.) are not there, where the keyboard layout says. Its always a try and error approach for me.
Does anyone manage to use it in a real "what you see is what you get" mode maybe by changing the language on the diamond or via a driver?
Is there any easy way to change the the keyboard layout (AEKmap might work, but with it I had to remap almost all keys)
Thanks,
Michael
Characters mismatch
I bought an Freedom Universal Keyboard² and have the same problem regarding some keys do not match up with the signs on the keyboard.
I also put an message on their help desk (a week ago), no answer yet.
Unfortunally the choises between the layouts in the driver is very limited.

[HELP] iGO MyWay navi sound guide problem

i have a Galaxy tab 2 7.0 GT-p3100,
I have tried out a cracked version of iGO navi and it appears it has some problems with the guide sound. I tried varius languages but its just not talking at all, sometimes it says something when i start the route but its only a very short sound or word. and i have tried uninstalling and using other cracked iGO versions.There is one thing though when installing the iGO you need to chose a resolution, the default resolution for the tab 7.0 is 1024x600, but it does not work because the navbar is in the way so i used the 960x540 res.
any kind of help appriciated and please dont tell me to buy the iGO nav, i am just trying it to see if its worth buying.
it worths buying if you are an hardcore driver, becuase igo primo is the best nav app which gives you the control of car info on the road, unfortunately i dont know how you can buy it, as far as i know its not for sale....
the problem you have is more likely to be from the rom installed in your device. many custom roms during deodexing or some implementations are breakinbg the sound links and codes, means igo wont remember your choices and either you must input them each time you start it, which is disgusting, or you must install a stock rom and root it. such problems are seen mostly in tts related sound playback and because i couldnt manage to correct these, i just flashed stock rom. prefer to have less headaches and enjoy igo primo instead of mess up everything..

Thanks for the reply but i think i will just stick to the rom and use the Navigon navigation because its working gr8 but i like the iGO better because of the interface and the smoothness it has. Oh well the Navigon will just have to do
You can visit that site: gps underground, there you can find many customizable skins for Igo primo for Android.
