TD2 with gesture10key

OK I think I have managed to do it without using PQZII. I have first changed the "preload" reg key to 411 and then I have modified the gersture10key sript to send over the Ctl Shift Shift clt hex codesby tapping on one button.

I can make the switch directly from gesture10key now. However something funny (which came as a nice surprise) is that my T9 Ime is still working where as I was expecting to lose it. The T9 still works randomly as soon as I activate the japanese IME but still I can use both in a rather confortable way. Again thanks a lot for this great work

TP2 Installation

I have successfully installed the cab on my TouchPro2 with WinMobile 6.5.

However, I need to know what keys to use to invoke the IME. Since The TP2 does not have a CTRL Key, I wonder what key to use or how to map the keyboard change to the keys of my choice.

Please let me know how to proceed.

Thank you

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] cgaiiii:
Quoting myself, I used PQzII and got the IME to load. I can switch IME to all different variants. I can type English from the regular keyboard. However, whenever I switch to one of the Japanese Modes, The keys appear (for example hiragana), but when I tap them nothing appears in Word or Notes or any other program. The function keys work (BS, etc.) but the kana keys do not work. I have changed the font in Word to a MS Gothic, MSPGothic, etc., but I have no luck. (So close, but not yet.)

If anyone knows a solution, please let me know.

Thank you.

Again quoting myself, but the compatibility cab fixed it. I now have Japanese functioning. Sorry for the noise on the thread. I missed the fact that the compatibility cab required a reboot to work. It does not request one, but once I rebooted after installing the cab. The inputs all worked.

Thank you very much for this. I definitely owe you a beer. I was ready to send the TP2 back to Sprint if I could not get JP to work on it.

Not working

I have a X05HT Softbank phone. Just flashed Energy.RAPHAEL.21903.Sense2.1.May.10. Then installed the file at the top of this thread and switched regional settings to Japanese. I also did the registry tweaks that fshieh suggested in the beginning of this thread and only later read that they may not be needed. Now I don't know what the original settings were. Maybe someone can advise? In any case, here is what works and what doesn't:

- kana and kanji appear correctly in Internet Explorer

- kana and kanji appear correctly in the headers of email messages but not in the message body itself (where they appear as little boxes with question marks instead)

- kana and kanji do appear in the text body of email messages correctly when viewed in the Sense mail module only

- IME doesn't work at all; the various input options do appear correctly in the input options drop-down menu and the icon at the bottom of messages that indicates what mode you are in also shows; but when I choose Romaji/kana input and go back to, say the email I want to type in, the icon remains in single-width and shows an "A" and no matter what I do, I cannot enter kana or kanji

- pressing the Ctrl+Shift combination doesn't do anything

Any advice?

Not working, further details

I reflashed the same EnergyRom (which is a WM6.5 version btw), reinstalled the cab from the top of the thread here and tried again, pretty much same result. I then ran the compatibility cab - no change.

In case it has anything to do with it, attached is a shot of the font-related registry entry on the phone. I also notice that the Windows/Fonts folder on the device is empty, and that the msgothic file is in the Windows root folder
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] axel007:
Doesn't work, further update

To save any of the senior members here a lot of hassle: I reflashed again, this time put the "experimental WM6.5" version on and this works for displaying. But I still have trouble with the IME. The single-width katakana symbol still appears but I am unable find a way to enter Japanese. The entry options given now no longer show the roma/kana option. They only show "hiragana/katakana" and the manual entry options. PQzII is no help. FIrst of all, it appears as a small white rectangle at the top of the screen but never mind that. I did manage to set it to 0xE6 but that does not lead to the effect that psieh has demonstrated in the YouTube clip. I will keep trying and hopefully figure this out so that others who have the same setup that I have can benefit.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] speakerphone:
yeh every wm6.5 seems a bit different. I got HD2 to work but not Polaris.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] morthalius:
No it does not. I reckon it comes from a wrong mapping in the scrip. i.e. the script we are using has not been mapped properly with the skin being used. either we can find the correct skin or we can change the script directly but I have to say I did not have the time to look at it properly.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] axel007:
Another solution that works

For posterity and those who have similar issues, I gave up on this as I couldn't get it to work on my device but instead implemented this solution here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=482611

which works like a charm (except that it doesn't seem to support Japanese characters in WM modules like Contacts but for me that isn't critical)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] morthalius:
Hi Mate,

Just in case you are still interested I have fixed that issue regarding wrong mapping with GESTURE10KEY showing ; instead of + or " instead of @. Just go to the touckkeySIP folder in your program file and open the gesture10key script (the text file).

At the beginning of the script look for this line

define	KEYBOARD_US	0	# bool	英語キーボード配列で使用する(0:日本語配列, 1:英語配列)

Replace the 0 by 1, save and that should fix it (it did on my TD2) it sounds like since we are using non japanese phone, we have an English Keyboad mapped to the keys so by putting 1 the mapping should be OK.

The latest Energy versions have different font settings, which breaks things. I don't have time to fix it this weekend, but a fix is incoming, since I use Energy myself.

In the meantime, if you're really desperate, try a different rom or earlier Energy ROM version. Alternately you can add Calibri in the fontlink settings (search through this thread to find an example).

there's a cab file to restore things to the original tahoma font for the newer energy roms. sorry, i have trouble posting the url directly, just copy & paste the link below to your address bar

xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6106015&postcount=6543

haven't tested it with japanese input yet, i'm but going to do so soon.

update

tried japanese input and there are some problems even with the fonts restored with above mentioned cab file. displaying japanese works flawlessly, but the pop-up window for converting hiragana to kanji shows only squares with question marks in them instead of japanese. i can blindly push space a few times and convert hiragana to kanji and it gets inserted correctly when pushing enter, but i don't see which kanji i'm actually selecting. have to try adding the calibri font to the fontlink settings as suggested next.

@flinx1 a new version of your cabs with a fix for this problem would be really appreciated. thanks for your hard work!

easy fix for energy roms

ok, here's a working fix for the problems with newer energy rom versions (the ones with a new default font).

after flashing a new energy rom, install the JPIMEWM65.cab, then reboot.

open a registry editor and go to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\FontLink\SystemLink

create a new key with the name Calibri and format String

set the value of this key to:

\windows\msgothic.ac3,MS UI GOTHIC

reboot and it should work, at least it does for me with an energy rom release of august 18th.

Hi flinx1,

Thanks for your awesome work, I've been able to use Japanese input on my HTC Touch and now more happily on my HTC Touch Pro2. You mentioned earlier that you were nearly ready to release a final version of WM6.5 support (update to the experimental version you posted). Any chance of getting this final version? I've had some various stability issues with the experimental version on my Sprint HTC Touch Pro2 and I'd love to try the final bits.

I'm also working on figuring out how to switch to Japanese input on the Sprint TP2 without installing the compat cab. I'll post my findings if I'm able to do it successfully (I had broken down and just installed the compat cab previously but I just had to do a hard reset of the phone yesterday so now I'm trying a few more options again to see if I can figure out how to switch IME on-demand without the compat cab).

Thanks much,

Aaron

Thank you very much, flinx1!

I managed to connect your IME to smartphone Gigabyte GSmart S1200 with Windows Mobile 6.1. It works great!

Also after I installed JPIMEWM6.cab, I've copied to device' Windows folder files from BagojsINPUT.cab (except hwxjpn.dll which is already is there from JPIMEWM6.cab) and added to registry registration of Radical List and Stroke List components. Thus I can now use all methods of input.

(BTW Asukal's LetsJapan5.cab and LetsJapan6.cab ruined the input because any press of non-character key on SIP threw 10-20 garbage symbols into editbox).

Thanks again!

Input trouble with HTC touch dual

Hi, i'm using a HTC touch dual, with a 20-key keypad and wm6.

I have installed flinx1's cab, but I cannot get it to change to Japanese input.

Ctrl-shift does not work. Neither does PQzII. The Japanese IME options do come up when i hit the SIP, but if I hit a Japanese character on the soft keyboard it just beeps and nothing comes up.

If I apply these registry changes:

[HKCU\Keyboard Layout\Preload]

default = "E0010411"

[HKCU\Keyboard Layout\Preload\1]

default = "E0010411"

I can get Japanese input to work using the soft keyboard, but it cripples my hard keypad, making it useful only for numbers and the few letters on either side of the numbered keys on the keypad.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what's stopping it from switching between input languages?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] nachy:
Just want to say thanks, this one is great.

Japanese Input doesn't really work for me either (or I just don't hit the correct keys to activate it) but that's not really an issue for me at the moment since I was just looking for something to make the music player display Japanese character and it's doing that perfectly (so far, only tested with hiragana/katakana titles).:o

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] flinx1:
I extracted the files from a WM6 emulator image, so no there's no seperate cab available just for the input.

Any particular reason why you don't want to use the one I provided that has display as well? I could make one with what you want, but the entire reason I made this is to cut down the confusion with multiple cabs, and also because input is useless without the ability to support display as well.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] larsuck:
Sorry not to explain fully. Your cab works really well and does cut down on the confusion quite a bit, but for some reason the font is different from the Let'sJapan that I have been using. The English is now in bold, which makes things a bit easier to read (if less ascetically pleasing), but the Japanese for me now is smaller and harder to read.

I have looked inside the cabs to see if I could change things to my liking: bring back let'sjapan's original font, do away with the T9-enabling reg edits, etc. But I gave up - such things are a bit above my current hacker THAC0. However, don't go out of your way to make me a special cab just for my situation, unless it is really easy for you to do.

Honestly, the two cab system has been working almost perfectly for me for years now, with the only problem being the off-again-on-again loss of tegaki and kensaku. (Which I thought was a problem with shared memory of today screen items and sips)...) But with the [HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e0010411]

Keyboard Layout = "00000409"

reg edit posted in this forum (which I have never seen before) I have hopes that I can fix it that way.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] flinx1:
It's the same font - the difference is in the registry setting. The way it's displayed depends on the SystemLCID setting in HKLM\nls. I've made you a cab containing the same defaults as letsjapan6 and 411 set instead of 409.

Hi Flinx1!

There is a strange behaviour since I installed your cab: the phone gets frozen at random time, not by doing anything particular.. I amm not sure it coming from your cab but more coming from let's japan or IME stuff..

Is there a way to investigate such halt problem? something to get the call stack just before it crashes?

Thanks for your support!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] flinx1:
That's very strange. Does it happen when you use any Japanese apps? If so, which ones are you using? Since these are basically just DLL files and region settings, if they affected phone stability you should have noticed it when you actively used the input.

If it doesn't crash when doing that, I'm inclined to believe it's something else. WinMo is very prone to memory leaks (check the percentage in the task manager) and does need to be rebooted regularly in my experience, regardless of the JP input. Freezes are also extremely difficult to diagnose - at least with a normal app crash, you get a log of what happened.

EDIT: I also forgot to ask, have you used any other apps that enable JP input/display? You might need to hard reset in that case to clean out any junk they may have left behind.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] genfersee:
Hi Flinx1!

I desinstalled your cab and there is not anymore the problem. I suspect the Let'sJapan part of your cab :(..

I only installer before the light "Japanese input" earlier and uninstalled it before installing your cab..

Actually, I was also experiencing the problem before you created the cab, when I installer all the components by myself! Hmmm one is making this happen.. Any clue?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] flinx1:
Does it happen if you only use Letsjapan6? (don't use letsjapan5, it's got some serious bugs and isn't recommended). Exactly what packages were you using prior to installing mine? If I know which ones I can have a look and see if there's anything that might be causing any conflicts. Have you tried a hard reset?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Zgembo:
Forgive me for bringing emoji offtopic again here.

About cooking SoftBank / DoCoMo message apps into ROMs. Have you actually ever tried these ever? I have tried SoftBanks's "solution", and it is the single most ugly & slow & unintuitive piece of WM software that came into existence. Dont expect better "solutions" from these companies. Another thing is that SoftBanks messaging app completely disables standard WM messaging software!

Thise emojis are just special codes inside mail message body (sms, mms, email or whatever). What one need is just a way to represent these codes with proper pictures. There are unique set of pictures for all major japanese providers. I already have the code tables, images... Only thing i need is a programming info on how to replace pieces of text inside messages with these little GIFs (some of them animated). SmileySMS does this well for SMS, but only SMS, so we need a general solution. What i am suggesting is only to ask SmileySMS developer for little help. I already ask alone, but i guess he would be much more motivated if more people join the effort.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] genfersee:
Hi Flinx1!

Well, before installing your package, I installed the "JapaneseInputWM5.CAB". Then removed it and installed:

- LetsJapanNo6.zip

- JK_IME_VGA.zip

and the 2 enable IME. I did it in the correct order as described in the other posts. It worked more or less except the register keys to set manually to get the switch working between IME. At this moment, I already had the halt. Symptom is that the phone is hanging and the screen remains as is, and backlight remains on forever. Only removing the battery can recover.

:(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] flinx1:
Sorry I haven't had time to look at this, but that's a lot of different cabs and it would be really hard to track down. Do a hard reset and reinstall JP input from my cab and then test it. I've had some of the problems you mention, but that was prior to starting from a clean image. I've tried stressing my phone by opening and closing apps that use JP input and display, entering things etc. but have been unable to provoke a freeze like you describe, even with 72% memory used. If it still happens after a hard reset I suspect one of the apps you're using that utilizes Japanese. Right now I know the following ones work: Opera Mobile, Pocket IE, Notes, Pocket Word, Google Maps, Pocket Mapple, EBPocket and Flexmail - do you use anything else? Also make sure those apps I mentioned are the latest version.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] genfersee:
Thanks Flinx1!

Well, I am using also SPB time (displaying japanese characters) and TodayAgenda (showing time in japanese style.)...

I did a backup of my phone storage with SPB backup. If I do a hard reset, is the internal 4Gb storage kept as is? And If I restore the phone storage through SPBbackup, would everything go smooth? :S I have never done such hard reset.. Do you mean the one puching various hard buttons at the same time?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] genfersee:
By the way, how can a hardreset do somehting as the phone should be restored exactly back as it was before if you restore a backup? :o)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] flinx1:
I'll have a look at those. What do you use to view TodayAgenda? SecondToday, or something else?

As for hard resetting, the idea is that you only restore things like contacts and settings. Reinstall programs from scratch. If you use a UC capable (custom) ROM you can automate this. That way you're left with only the software you re-installed, and nothing from the botched ones. Think of it like a clean windows install on a PC.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] flinx1:
Deinstall my package and then try installing .net? If it still doesn't work, I suspect something else is causing it. If you're using a custom ROM you might want to check if the ROM already has netcf 3.5 - I know some of them do. Also try a hard reset and then installing programs one by one. Normally netcf and these language files should never interact on their own, so if something is causing a conflict it's most likely an application that's using both netcf and Japanese at the same time.

SIP for 320px screen?

Hi There!

I've just found this thread on google, put the cab on my Samsung i780 and wow. IME works wonderfully, and it does not screw with the regional settings (i need hungarian). However the device has a 320x320 screen :/ and if i rename the *.96.dll-s to *-.128.dll the SIPs load and work, but misaligned and fragmented. Is there any way i can get original *.128.dll-s for 320px wide screen?

Thank you!

320px SIPs

Hi there!

Fortunately the sip panels are written quite smart because they functionally resize to the display only the graphics have to be changed. I've did it with the trial version of resource tuner in about 15 minutes.

You can see some minor visual bugs on the mbox panels. The other problem is that resize blurs the whole image makes it harder to compress so the files are larger than the 480px version. But until someone gets the official panels or draws correct ones this version should do the job.

Some buggy buttons:

Looks ok:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] flinx1:
Based on the files you provided I've uploaded a cab version for 320x320 devices:

http://dbhqs.com/flinx1/JPIMEWM6_320.rar

Now I don't know what the graphics look like, but if you want to avoid the blur, could you instead add whitespace on the sides of the QVGA sip, so you get a 320x240+80 image? I don't know if that's better or not mind you, as the QVGA is pretty ugly to begin with - the thing I was thinking of is that it might be better for more complex kanji.

EDIT: I may have a source for the official 320 files, hold on.
