Hot fix for abnormal Nike TouchFLO screen display and keyboard output problems
If the TouchFLO screen display is abnormal (for example, the icons disappear, the words overlap, and so on) and the keyboard output characters are incorrect (pressing a key doesn’t result in the desired character), please download and install this fix to solve the problem.
I dont´t know if that will work on the asian. Maybe that´s the problem. My device is a Htc touch dual unbranded

I tried it but encountered error, you mentioned before that you edit some registry, did this work?

---

No sorry, only changing registry entries didn´t work.
Maybe it could. I don´t know what this hotfix is doing on the device,
maybe only registry tweaking...i don´t know.
Sorry that this couldn´t help you

Thanks for the help, I hope that someone can fix this via registry tweak in the next few days.

I installed it and everything worked fine :s but I had to uninstall it because ti didn't have Spanish xt9, and I need it daily, but the app is well made.

---

spanish xt9
I think you have spanish XT9. You only have to change registry key.
The keyboard is complete with I think 5 or 6 languages.
Was same with german, first you can´t select german, only english and italian. after changing registry you can select between 5 languages.

What registry change did you do to get it to do that? Thanks

---

really nice keyboard - recommend it, it replaced my other touch keyboards for some reason but much prefer this one and actually use just the qwerty, forgot about changing from ita to eng which confused me for a while.

---

great I got all the languages to work, and they're AWESOME. The XT9 is SOOO fast! But now my hardware keyboard doesn't work !!! Can anyone get it to work? I see a very VERY superior XT9 for some reason. So fast, and responsive (at least on the touch screen version). The Hardware keyboard doesn't work for me I'm on Tom's Rom.

Ok, here is the workaround to this problem:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1972810&postcount=5
but doesn't solve 'only numbers showing with hardware keyboard' problem

Getting a little confuse, so it works except that it gives this error:
'only numbers showing with hardware keyboard' ?
Or it does that for other only and works without hitches on otheres?

The touchscreen keyboard works like a charm, the hardware keyboard, which I imagine was not thought of when it was copied over to us, doesn't work. It only gives you the "what you see button is what you get" meaning that you get the letters for the extreme right and left buttons, but not the center buttons which have numbers written on them. That's our current predicament.

No one has gotton this to work yet ?

Just tried it, you are correct it did not solved the keyboard problem. maybe it also needs some reg tweaks.
