I am using this keyboard and it works very nice.

settings are dutch and compact keyboard.

i think i liked the compact from the 1.5 version better, but this keyboard gives you more keys on one page.

I need help with these problems:

- first when typing in a name in the TO field of an sms, the XT9 option is disabled. I like this enabled so it can recognize the names. f.e. if i type sander as to-person, i have to type 77772663_3777 in stead of 726337

- second the XT9 option can be enabled when typing text, but when i exit and start a new sms i have to enable it again. i would like this option to be the default option.

any help?

Hi

I just install your hebrew keyboard but it is without the TSADI SOFIT (ץ) letter.

Do you have another version ?

Font used on keys

Is there a way to change the font used to print the characters on the keys? I have version 2.0 of EzInput installed on a stock official HTC wm 6.1 ROM. The keyboard is fully functional, without errors, and pretty nice by the way. But the characters on the keys are bold letter. So please, is there a way to tell the keyboard to just use Tahoma, not Tahoma bold.

For some reason my keyboard is stuck on the web looking keyboard where the .com is in place of the space bar. I'm using a touch pro for sprint. I'm trying to text people and I have to hit the 12# button to get to the space button after every word. Imagine how annoying that is! :( Please help fix.

Hi people.

Just installed it into my Omnia II and it kind of works.

After reboot and selecting Touch Input it gives a device.exe error. Any idea?

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
Well, look at the files... there's a big chance we can start the conversion right now...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
safe to remove
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] yozgatg:
there is no half-QWERTY on the new diamond 2??

also will it be possible to remove the arrows at the bottom (for the VGA version ofcourse)?

anyways keep up the good work
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] :
Hmmm.......... I am able to change my keyboard using the old menu. however I just get the qwerty, I am not able to select anything else. I will continue to work on this.

I am trying to get it to cook into a rom. but i cant quite get it to work yet.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] CRACING:
Ok, I will check out the files and will try to port.........:)

Edit: seems that, PQSym_Bg_Inv file is damaged:( is there any alt....
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
No, at this stage, no Compact Qwerty is available. Let's hope HTC will change its mind for the released version.

Changing the size of the rectangular area will require a code patching, a thing that we'll have to do for the QVGA layout, but that should be necessary just for Landscape under VGA. For the key coordinates, the xml files should be enough...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
To force it with the registry:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\ezsip]

"CurrentSIP"=dword:[B]a00[/B]

I wonder if it should auto-detect the foreground application and change layout accordingly... it would be nice to have a setting panel to assign a different layout to each editing application. HTC ??

I will create a wish list on the first page... :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
Yes, I see. I don't have a better version, though. We'll have to make it from scratch using the P12 file...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] rjmjr69:
i had troubles getting the last version to cook in i jusuallly do it as a cab and when doing it that way you have to kill service sipgt when i try doing oem only a portion of the main app would install t9 etc
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] CRACING:
Its ok. Now I am resizing all the png's using photoshop. Is this the correct way?

I am resizing all images by 50%. Any suggestion?

Thanks and Regards
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
There are better image resizer around, but photoshop is ok.

50% will give us a quite big keyboard, for VGA, but since the code will need to be patched, it will be a good start. We have to investigate the format used in the .xml files, though...

If you manage to rebuild the cripped file, can you post it here ? I'll add it to the cabs...

Thanks ! :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] CRACING:
Oh, I haven't seen that xml file:(. Anyway, there are many image to be resized so more work:).

I think I cannot make that cripped file so I skiped that...... Will try later.

Edit: Problem found - after resizing LTel_Bg_Inv.png by 50% half, The image size became 400x89 but our qvga size will be 320:confused:. In portrait images its correct but only problem is with landscape images. May be it is because wvga images.:(

what shoud do now?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] PurPLe SKy:
Will be released a WQVGA version ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
This is just a repository, and we've just started. The chances for release for any form factor depend on the volunteers... :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] PurPLe SKy:
OK. I hope it will be released, i love this keyboard.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] CRACING:
untill now, I was able to convert Landscape and Portrait images to qvga so still there are some files to be converted.

Part 1 is here : Link

BTW;

Resized Landscape images by 40%

Resized Portrait images by 50%

PQSym_Bg_Inv.png image/file is damaged so I left it.

So what % should I resize of other images/files. confusing:confused:

Edit: OK, I have redesigned the damaged file. I think its the good image at present, untill getting original one. I have also tested in Emulator and its working prefect. File is attached below.

Thanks and regards
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Dominic83:
yeahh wqvga would be great for all the omnia users :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] cursor:
nice.

tried on my X1 but it still (like previous version) disables the àü and fn key of the hardware keyboard :_(

HTC EzInput2 for Diamond

The Full Qwerty keyboard is too big for diamond screen,

so i got rid of the soft-arrows on the bottom, which are pointless coz diamond have hardware arrows.

Enjoy
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
Thanks a lot ! I'll take a look later today.

For the landscape reduction the percentage will have to be different, both for VGA and QVGA. At the moment, to ease the conversion issues that we might encounter, I'd lieave the navigation arrows at the rightmost part. So we should resize the landscape to a 320px width for QVGA and 640px for VGA...

If the resulting graphics will be too small, we'll have to consider arrows removal.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
you just cropped the graphics, or what else ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] blutz:
edit the xml files
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
I've seen your files, thanks !

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=485396&page=2

There is a keyboard OEM at this, It was a working SIP, working Full Qwerty, Working Phone Keypad. Might want to look at it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
Seen, thanks ! It includes an additional library, which I'm going to test in a few minutes. I guess that probably it wasn't even necessary to create this thread after all :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] :
still needs work, seems like some of the xml files are off or soemthing. not all of the keys work. you can press them. but nothing appears. who knows. we will have it soon i am sure.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Krzysiec:
In VGA ver SPACE button doesn`t work in ABC mode ...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
The cabs are in WVGA only at the moment... What VGA version are you talking of ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Krzysiec:
From post #41 ... I called it VGA becuase it was fitted to Diamond ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jholton:
VGA version - space not working

I think this is the one that they mentioned the space not working in VGA version. I installed this one, and that is an issue with it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
Ok, I see... It seems that the HTC code is really at an early stage in development...

By the way, would you prefer to keep the arrows, in a VGA version, or not ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Krzysiec:
Hmmm it`s difficult to say ;) But would be great if there will be choice of two: With and Without arrows. Anyway i preffer arrows ;) But most of VGA user preffer more space on display ;) Can`t wait for full working keyboard. ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jholton:
VGA version

Keep the arrows, for sure!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jholton:
If you hit backspace after completing a word then the space will work...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
Good. We'll try to see what can be fixed in this version, then, to enable the keys. I guess it will take a few months before an official VGA version will see the light. The next VGA devices seem to be scheduled for the fourth quarter...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
The library that it was missing from the B1 cab was the new SipMenu. I've added it along with its registry settings and now the SipMenu should be enabled with the new B1.1 cab, too.

However, this brings up a blocking issue, at least for Non-HTC phones and HTC QVGA phones that doesn't have a Touch.dll compatible with the new SipMenu (of the HTC ones, only the Elfin, Opal, Jade and Iolite have it): it won't be possible neither to change between the keypad and full qwerty, nor to change the language used. Bad news.

Could you take a snapshot of the new SipMenu ? Thanks !

I can also confirm that the Landscape layout seems a bit messed up.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] :
right now there really is no new SIP, well i havent got it going. it is just a small list, like it use to be.

I just got the new manila to auto lauch on vga devices. So I am working on Contact Editor now.

I will try and grab screenshots later when I can though.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bugsykoosh:
Did you guys see this version yet from jmztaylor: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=58596

few more pics here with some issues but also one big benefit - disabling T9 gives you old school completion (the old HTC keyboard only worked with every other letter for some reason when T9 was disabled): http://www.fuzemobility.com/?p=2212
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
hehe... :rolleyes:

you can find the same packages on xda, but with a different name on them ;)

Anyway, we're all getting files from the same source. And altough the .xml files seem to be ok, the landscape layout has several typing issues. I wonder why I cannot find issue reports for that packages too... :confused:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
Well, but how can you select the Phone Keypad on the old list, then ? Since you were talking of a working Keypad, I thought you had used it...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] :
well said..... Not sure why we are getting these issues. unless some random regedit that we are missing. or some odd files. who knows. We will get it all soon.

Keep up the great work.

Running to town. When I get back I will grab a screenshot.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
This one is really good. Did the layout autoconfigure itself to Phone Keypad just because you were on the SMS application, or did you select it manually ?

What seems to be the old input panel is indeed the new one, in disguise. See where it says "Other Input Methods", and where it says "English" ? well, you can't get those options with the standard Input Panel. You get them because you are using the new SipMenu. This one doesn't use the good-looking graphics introduced with V1.5, but maybe it's just because it's still a work in progress.

I can't get it, however, using these beta1.1 cabs on the emulator. Someone could check them and tell me what happens on a real VGA/WVGA device ?

Thanks !!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] whatsleft4her:
can we get a qvga without the arrows really no need for them when you have a dpad. is it possible?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
Good point !

But we have more urgent issues first... It's still unclear how to make the language and layout options appear on the input panel, and the Landscape mode has a few missing keys...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] whatsleft4her:
i see i see well im willing to be a tester and def waiting on you guys patiantly if it was for you guys here id just have a basic phone and no tweaks that i have a passion for.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
I hope we'll be able to solve the major issues in a short time.

I fear, however, that this new version might be too much for our old QVGA devices. As I said a few posts earlier, if our QVGA phones can't even show the SipMenu introduced with V1.5, it won't be possible to show the new one either. And without the new one, at this stage it's not possible to change the language or the layout. A real pity... :(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] whatsleft4her:
well 1.5 works just fine for me but def hope you can get this to work. if you need a tester pm me the cab and im in.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] :
Just tested. The SIP menu does come up on your latest. I am getting full keyboard working in Phone Keypad and Full Qwerty. looks great so far.

It is a new SIP menu, I was just expecting something more. but then again no complaints at all. Wonder if we can make the old one work with it anyways. Let me grab some files and I will test this out. First to convert your latest back to OEM though.

Good work on this so far.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dharvey4651:
I tried it but I can't get anything but the portrait Full QWERTY to work. I tried on an AT&T Fuze(Touch PRO) and I used the version for users with a full keyboard.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] CRACING:
Hello,

ya, the images will not be clear when we resize them so need to find alt solutions. I tried my best to resize them but still are some more images to be resize. So when you will be free please take a look on them and also the xml files.

BTW; how was the redesigned damaged file. Hope it was fine.......:)

//EDIT: Version 1.1

works on the Touch HD, but there is that space issue

//EDIT: Version 1.3

//EDIT: Just works on the Touch HD :)

funny thing the compact QWERTY is still an option

when selected regular crappy windows keyboard shows up

one small omission from the CAB

is the tick.wav file

vibrate is not the only feedback option, there is also sound

as the rest, file goes into \Windows
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sinara:
Please please please give us a VGA version as well :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] yandi3401:
Hi, I love this keyboard, it really looks nice!

- Is this suposed to work on an HTC Touch? Because I intalled it on my HTC Touch, and it works, but is too big, i can only see half of the keyboard. So i wonder if this is suposed to work on my phone.

I apreciate all the hard work you are doing, thanks a lot!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
Conflipper is using your same phone... have you tried the latest Beta 1.1 ? the previous one was missing the sipmenu.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
Well, if you remember correctly, there is "WVGA" written above the download links ;)

Browse a bit through the previous posts. This is going to be a joint effort.

We'll need to resize and tweak the configuration files, but there are going to be several blocking issues for QVGA phones, including yours (and mine, BTW)...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
There are already other users in this thread working on it... :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
"Space issue" ? more details, please...

You still see the Compact because you still have the previous 1.5 version on the phone. This one doesn't have it at all, but the keys are not replaced...

I wonder what does make you think that that file is needed... I see that other users have added it to their packages, but no library both from HTC or from Tegic references it. Sound works even without that file.

Are you telling me that by adding that file the sound made while typing changes ? It should be added to Beta 1.2, in that case.

Could anyone else confirm ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
As another user suggests, since QVGA phones (and VGA phones too) have hardware arrow keys, we could try to get rid of them on the layout, to get more real estate. But I'm still not sure if it would be safe to remove entries from the .xml files. It has already been attempted here with the VGA ones, but some users are reporting issues with the space key...

I'll look at it later today.

Your redesigned image file was very good, but I've find another source that was not corrupted, so I've chosen that one... you can find it in the new cabs...

Thanks !
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
Nothing has been done, yet... We must be sure if the first attempt to remove the arrows on the VGA version has been successful or not :)

And anyway, the two Sip Menus are a bit different. The one used for V1.5 was an app launched at startup, while the last one is configured as a service. I'd stick with it, at the moment, there are more serious issues which need our attention...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dlee83:
Hi guys,

I have the Verizon Touch Pro and installed the cab for the VGA version of this EzInput keyboard. When I go to test it out on an SMS or email, only the ugly QWERTY pops up (tiny keys, pale blue), not the HTC one. Does anyone know how to switch the on-screen keyboards?

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
If you have downloaded the Beta 1 VGA cab fromthis thread, then you don't have the SipMenu and it won't be possible to change the layout.

You need Beta 1.1 or above, it will appear soon on the download links.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dlee83:
I uninstalled the cab but still the ugly light blue keyboard shows up. How do I change this back to the HTC keyboard? Isn't there a button I press to toggle between full qwerty, compact qwerty, t9, etc.?

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
I guess you've not read that part on the first post where it's clearly written that this is pre-release software... you can't simply remove and expect everything to be back as before.

If you can't get the previous keyboard back, you have to reinstall it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] CRACING:
Hello,

I have some queries with previous ezinput :

There are same images which are above qvga screen size so what are those because if thay are useless then I will delete them so that I can get some space. :)

Images/files name:

P20-capmap_down_mask.png

P20-capmap_up.png

P20-eng-capmap_down_mask.png

P20-eng-map_down_mask.png

P20-map_down_mask.png

P20-map_up.png

prediction_bkgrnd_portrait.png

prediction_landscape.png

Is its clear to delete these files or else should I resize them?

Thanks and regards
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
You don't need those, for EzInput 2.0.

P20 (Compact Qwerty) is not supported at all.

And anyway, the P20 images included in the 1.5 QVGA cabs are not above QVGA screen size... I think I'm missing your point. :confused:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DupinBJK:
Beta 1.2 is out, with a minor correction to the cabs.

The package should be complete, by now.

Could someone take them and make a no-arrows version for VGA ? The previous had the arrows removed only for the Full Qwerty layout, and not the Keypad one, now accessible through the SipMenu.

Once we'll understand how to fix the missing keys issue for Landscape, there will be time to make a VGA layout including the arrows.

Could the author use a xxx_HTC_EzInput.* format, thus replacing BJK with his three-letters initials ?

Thanks !! :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lukzke:

No space issue at all, on that 1.8 rom ? Someone else says that that rom had the same issue...
