Keyboard layout and T9 function

Hi all, just got the diamond last week, damn its nice, just the battery life sucks.
I used to own a UK T-Mobile Mda 3, loved the calender as i change shifts a lot, was looking to replace it a few months back heard tell of the diamond so decided to wait.......however...
The sms full keyboard on my old MDA3 used to allow predictive words (t9 i think) but the diamond does not seem to, I like the keyboard layout over the qwerty or comapct qwerty as they both take up too much for the screen for my taste.
The t9 does not seem to work in the keybaord layout, i think i have all the settings correct, as it works in the other 2 setups but not keybaord.
also, is there a website that lists all the compatible 6.1 programs? not sure what i want, but more like teeter would be nice, or even a different sms prog that allows predictive text!!
Cheers

The same for me. T9 works only using qwerty layout. If you use keyboard layout predictive text doesn't work. Someone has an idea ? My rom is 1.37 from HTC official italian.
Thanks in advance

Found it ! Thanks to newtonmj in modaco forum
You must chaange the registry key XT9SupportMSSip in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Tegic\eT9\ from '0' to '1'.
This allows the predictive text to work correctly in standard keyboard too.
I don't know if this mod can "damage" other settings but I don't think. It allows the predictive input to work using microsoft standard keyboard. In my device now works !

Very nice. I think I'll try it. But I wanted that worked correctly standard keyboard without adding third part software. What is standard in my device MUST work correctly. Then perhaps I'll not use it, but this is another thing
I'm paranoic. But I can't accept that a phone worth about 500€ does't go in the appropriate way......

Russian (cyrillic) Keyboard

Hello,
i just got my HTC diamond, using it in french !
I need to send sms in CYRILLIC as i did with my Sony w880i (just choosing the language while writing sms)
Is it possible to activate a russian keyboard in sms menu, and also to add a cyrillic alphabet in word for example !?
I'm looking for it on the forum, but i didn't find yet any topic about this specific request...
Thank you very much for help !!!!!

Russian input
It''s only a standart VGA keyboard russification. Enjoy

Thanks for the file...
But after i installed it, it seems that i still can't choose the russian keyboard

Sms in Russian
I tried to install in my HTC Touch Diamond several different keybord in order to be able to write sms in russian/cyrillic. All of them are perfectly working, with outocomplete words,....
But my problem is that when I send the sms to another mobile, my text cannot be recognised: all the letters will become "?". Is this because my Diamond is in Italian and can't recognize cyrillic caracters?
Can anyone help me to solve this problem? I need to write Sms in Russian.
Thanks in advance

I believe that another phone should support Russian, this is often problem.

So you think that there's no chance to write sms in cyrillic from my HTC Diamond? But I'm sure that exist the russian version of this mobile. Why can't it recognize cyrillic?

You can try Microinvest Micron 2.5 keyboard. It's free and supports cyrillic keyboards (russian and bulgarian) as well as the standard english layout. It comes in two distinct versions (which are actually separate installations):
Standard - with the size ot standard input panel and
Touch - specially suited for finger typing.
It also has support for VGA displays (such as the Touch Diamond).
You can choose among 4 integrated skins (i like Vista best). More info here:

Or download directly from here:

Quick questions.

Hello everyone.
First of all, I would like to say that this forum and this community are one of the bests I've ever encountered before.
After that, I've got a couple of questions that would help me finaly buy this Diamond...
1°) Using a lot my email account, and knowing it's a Windows Live one, will it work on the 'Mail' tab in TF3D? Or do I have to go all the way through programs==> Windows Live? Will it work as a standard Windows Live Mail like on my Pc?
2°) Also I would like to know if a French version supports Greek characters for texting.
Thank you for your replies.
Edit : Also, being a fan of Microsoft, I own a Zune, & a Xbox 360. Is there any interaction possible? Especially with the Zune Software on my PC (Replaces WMP11 for my Zune device and is a kick ass) ?
Regards.
A.

Answer 1) I use the Live function of my phone, and it integrates fully with the TouchFlo 3D so yes, it works as normal email just settings are done through the Live application (which is brought up when you go into normal email settings anyway).
Answer 2) I can't say for French roms but I have a English ROM Diamond and the Greek letters are on there, just stashed way down on the symbols list.
I hope this helps. I don't know if you can Greek as a proper keyboard on an English or French ROM, but if you find out you can please let me know as this would be nice for me too.

Thanks for your response, I will look into it.
Anyone else, who owns a Zune could tell me if Zune software works with the Diamond?

ARABIC SUPPORT FOR X1i

Hello all,
I have bought an english version X1 from Hong Kong, even though i reside in Kuwait, the problem is there is no arabic support, it is not like the PC's windows O.S where you can change the regional settings and keyboard input and VIOLA!
Therefore, i will be gratefull for anyone who can provide a ROM or CAB file with arabic support for reading and input (keybaord).
There is a thread that answers to that but the program it offers is expired.
Thank you for your time.

There you go man, I tried this today and it worked flawlesly it also enables the arabic keyboard on screen
http://rapidshare.com/files/166150944/TSD_MOBiDIV_416.cab
Make sure you dont have Tweak xperia tool installed in ur X1, it will not display arabic letters correctly in internet explorer

THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!
One question though, the sms is not correctly oredered.
Am i missing something?

Never mind, a managed to fix it, i cant expres my gratitude i have been searching for arabic support for days.
Thanks again!

I was in the same boat man, this thing drove me crazy! I am glad it worked out well

Hi... do u guys still have arabic support? I dont want to type, I just want to be able to read Arabic SMS... the rapidshare link u have is not there anymore...
Thanks.

if you want you can use a program attached to lingosoft dictionary it will give you what you want just search on rapidshare or softarchive you will find it

Arabic Support package
Thanks for the package...
I installed the package and it is working fine. I am experiencing little slowness in the phone but it is OK and not a major problem.
But the significant thing is that the way of viewing the messages is different now. Before installing the package, I used to be able to view the preceding messages and replies at the same opened location(desired message).
Now after installing the Arabic package you cant do that. Each message is alone now. You need to open each message in order to view the content and have to close it and open another message to view it's content.
Did any body had this problem before.
I don't know if there is a way to revert that or if there is an option to view the messages in the old way. I searched the mobile windows but nothing came.
Please help...

SMS Layout
Gentlemen pls help.
I wana c the old layout of the sms, that is you can view all the messages between you the sender in one page actually. it helps a lot in replying to a text sms.
Thank you.

sorry I can help u..
I never use Xperia

Need Help
Xperia uses windows mobile 6.1 same like other smart phone. Have u ever faced such problem or did u ever change the sms layout from the original one.
Thanks.

ROM with full Hebrew support

I've installed PDAVIET's WM6.5 ROM 1.59.841.59, what's surprising about it, is that it has Hebrew support out of the box. I can view Hebrew websites in Opera without a mirror effect, and for the first time, in Internet Explorer without it crashing on spot.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=555137

Question
Can you determine if this is inherent to this WM build (23041.5.3.0 /23047.5.3.0) or whether it's an add-on?
Did you flash using ROM V59?
Thanks.

Apparently this is inherent to the build 23047 rather than just an add on, seen this build on a guy's D1 and it displayed Hebrew equally well.
I flashed V56.

confirm
Thanks cytokine,
Right, seen it functioning on a D1 and on TP this morning (both running build 23047).
I guess we'll see this info spreading like wildfire now, though apparently no formal mention made available through MS SP program or MSDN.
Side note; I'm amazed that Balmer kept his promise to include Heb in future WM OS, even more surprised that it happened before WM7.

i've tried V62. it displays hebrew well in internet explorer on some sites but not in all sites. ynet is working zap is not (site in gibberish).
in opera zap is working in hebrew very well.
SMSs are appearing in hebrew but backwards.
if you install the free hebrew it causes the internet to go backwards and the smss to be fine.
the same is for the contacts, notes and other applications. the built in heb is displaying backwards the free heb is OK.
so you have to decide...
for me the decision is to install free heb and the version of opera that support it.

Opera's display of hebrew is perfect. All sites working flawlessly and at an amazing speed; much faster than I've seen with any Hebrew add-on in previous version.
And though Internet Explorer will not display Hebrew correctly at a few sites, like "Zap", it's at least not brought to a complete halt. With every Hebrew add-on I've tried, the first sign of Hebrew on any webpage, including Google, would make IE crash completely.

I've tried using that "special version" and it just wasn't appealing with its hospital-white interface, weird scrolling and zoom, buggy rendering and slow speed.

if you need hebrew that doesnt crash the explorer you can find it here:

you'll also want the hebrew local (for non unicode hebrew):

Thanks tamiroff, I'll take a look.

Question
I read tons of threads and I can't find an answer to the ultimate Question.
Is there a wm 6.5 ROM that can be used on a device with a hardware keyboard (like the se x1) and can be used like a regular device with relative ease?
--------------
SONY ERICSSON X1 still with the original ROM

VERY interesting,....A few questions please:
1. Would this mean that anything above build 23047 will also have Hebrew support?
2. By Hebrew support do you mean that the Menus are still in English while it can read/see Hebrew ( SMS, em, IE..etc)? , what about the Keyboard, if you install FingerKeyb-2.1 can you enter hebrew letters (RTL)?

Guys hold your horses.
The ttf files that come with WM by default only have limited sets of glyphs, including latin (english, french, german etc), cyrillic (russian) and possibly some more, but no vietnamese, chinese, japanese, hebrew, arabic etc. This can be easily remedied by overwriting the ttf files that come with windows mobile with the ttf files of the same name from a PC windows installation. this would give you all the glyphs of almost all languages of the world including hebrew.
That's nothing new and we always knew it and could always do it, however it doesn't solve the Right-to-Left issues for us.
PhamQuang makes ROMS for Vietnamese users and probably added the ttf files for their sake. Their language is written left-to-right so they only need the glyphs.
The new Pocket Explorer knows how to deal with RTL and so do recent versions of Opera. Unfortunately the rest of the OS does not and requires installation of third party software, and we still have the problem that new PIE doesn't like it when a third party app tries to mess with its text.
Bottom line: Move along... nothing to see here...
Cheers
