GingerDX V21 mini pro - qwerty => qwertz [Solved] - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Hello,
I don't have access to the appropriate ROM thread. That's why I post here.
I upgraded from V17 to V21 recently and my last little bug that I can't resolve is the keyboard layout.
I also had this problem in V17 but I successfully used "mini Rom Manager" to change the layout.
Now in V21, mini Rom Manager (5.2) says my phone is not recognized.
Phone: U20i (now named mimmi. Reason for not beeing recognized ?)
ROM: GingerDX V.21
Kernel: ZombiePanic 1.63
Thanks for your help.
Tim

you can try KeyboardChanger

Great,
Did not see that app despite numerous searches.
Thanks sttugut for your help and madbulls for his app.

Um, it says to use Default Input, but there is no such input at all in GingerDX v21... How did you managed to do it properly?

The keyboard changer is a nice tool but how does it work my layout xml file is set right but when i change with this app it gives me one of the three specific swedish caracters, and the symbol button doesn't work. How should a keyprint.xml file be to work. I just wounder becuse it doesnt matters what i do it doesn't work. Sorry to hijack the tread but i can't post where i want to post this problem.

You can download the default keyboard in the first page of thread. Look at the extra modules for the line mentioning :"Optional for default keyboard".
Flash the file like if it's a rom (recovery mode) and you'll get the default keyboard (Stock keyboard).

I thought that was just some fix, but luckily isn't, thanks. Now hopefully going to make it successful...

hi there,
i have a big problem. i installed gingerDX v21. all worked fine with that. my only problem is, that i can't find a way to change the keyboard layout from qwerty to qwertz. i tried every possibility. in my keyprint.xml it's right said and also in my settings available to choose but it doesn't work. i tried the keyboard changer program, i tried to edit the .xml by my own and i also replaced the keyboard.xml with one i found here. i don't know what i can do else. any ideas? (it's available to choose german and qwertz in settings but it doesn't work in messages or whatsapp or anything else)
my keyprint.xml looks like:
keyprint name: QWERTZ
-->
<keyprint>
<script name="arabic"
keylayout="arabic"/>
<script name="cyrillic"
keylayout="cyrillic"/>
same with greek and hebrew and the last:
<script name="latin"
keylayout="qwertz"/>
</keyprint>

i solved this problem by using the .apk file. another unsolved question is how to get the german umlaute back? before i could press the butten down right and then o,a,u and got ö,ä,ü. is there any possibility to get this for gingerdx v21?

[Q] Cyanogen 2.2 x10 Mini Pro : I got some question.

Hi !
I have some questions, and i can't find answers by using the Search button (Or it is maybe hidden on a 50 pages topic) and my english is sometimes too bad to understand some people.
So here are my questions.
I rooted and did everything to my little x10 mini pro, and finally managed to install owain's port of Cyanogen.
I had some trouble and solved it alone (like market always crashing etc ..) but i still have some questions.
1. Mapping the keyboard.
-- Using owain's update.zip i found the keyboard perfectly mapped, (which was not before updating it) but the problem is, being french, i use an AZERTY keyboard and got an AZERTY physical keyboard.
Everything is in the good place but the A/Q and Z/W and i can't find where i can remap it, may some one give me a clue ? Tell me which file to modify or something ? Or even a thread I maybe missed out ?
Thanks.
2. Lighting this keyboard.
-- By using this rom, my physical keyboard light is off, which if kinda boring using it by night.
I didn't find any answer but a "Owain's maybe have to solution, ask him".
Someone got something about it ?
Edit 2 : Find back where i red this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=827690
3. Finding back my Timescape.
-- By using this rom (sorry my english is THAT bad ), i don't have Timescape anymore.
I found a topic claiming "Here are all the x10 apps you have at start" but when i try to download anything (shortlinks ...) i get on a freelolgames website ..
(Right, i just understood by checking it again, that there is a "Skip Ad" button on the top, and i'm gonna try to find it myself but i let it there like it may help someone else).
Edit 1 :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=826849
Invalid or Deleted File.
4. Special Thanks !
-- My x10 Mini Pro is really better now, I want to thanks everyone who worked on roms/mods/recovery/root and so on ... You make this phone worth something ! Thanks again !
Hi there first its not my rom
The rom ik from MikevHL and me
Fix 1 go to /system/usr/keylayout
There you need to open the file qwerty it is just a text file
Search the keys that are wrong it will explain itself
About the keyboard lighting mike and i are working on it but se did it on a weri unofficial way so we need to figure it out how
And about time scape sorry but that is only in the se rom ):
Maby we try to port timescape after we fixed the major bugs we have left
Try to install the new software we provided and with the last update zip it will fix the mareket crashing

Thanks for the answers .
For the market crashing, i tried to fix it using an update.zip having the last version of the market.
It doesn't crash anymore but i still can't download a thing.
I'm gonna try a fresh install + your last upload.zip today, hope it will fix it .
For the keyboard, thanks, i'm gonna try it .
Keep up the good work !
Thanks over and over again !
---
Edit : It's okay now for the keyboard. I'm going to upload the keyboard file if someone may need it.
Fresh install + v1. 6. 5 + v1. 7. 1 and the market still doesn't work ..
I may know where the problem is.
I didn't use the CM6 2.5 rom as I always get a md5 mismatch. I use the FloyoCM6 someone posted on your topic.
May you reupload your (and MikevHL's) rom please ? or i missed something about the md5 problem ?
Edit : oops Mikevhl just did it ! forget it gonna try it and tell you if it work .
Thanks over and over again !
sorry for spamming, this post is just in the way for reach the number "10" that allows me to post where i'm interested to.
best regards!
respect
No problem about this, need to get the 10 posts too but i'm gonna do it the ''legit'' way .
I still have the md5 missmatch error with the last updated rom, any clue ?

we are looking to the keyboard but android has normally a text file with a zero or a one for the keyboard lit but SE dont have it... so we need to find the path
the orignal path is /sys/class/leds/keyboard-backlight/brightness
led flash:
adb shell
cd /sys/devices/platform/msm_pmic_flash_led/
cat spotlight::enable
echo 1 > spotlight::enable (led back on)
cat spotlight::enable
echo 0 > spotlight::enable (led back off)
keyboard backlight
adb shell
cd /sys/devices/platform/msm_pmic_misc_led.0
cat brightness
echo 1 > brightness (keyboard backlight on)
cat brightness
echo 0 > brightness (keyboard backlight off)
found the files finally jeeej
only problem is when you turn the leds on you need to set it to 0 before they go off so that will eat your battery
need to write a script now so it turns automaticly off when you close keyboard
keyboars backlight fixed look in CM6 threat to update

I need the spanish layout... any idea of what should i need to change? I tried editing system/usr/keylayout/qwerty.kl but modified keys doesn't work anymore... any idea?
Thanks to all the xda collective!
I have had the same problem, but i was in the need of the swedish keyboard. I have managed it by changing the keyprint-xml to the original (swedish) one.
.. system/usr/Keyboard-config/keyprint.xml
Try to change this file to the original spanish one. It needs to have permissions 644 after the change.
Alternativly you can edit the file and change the following line in the file:
<script name="latin" keylayout="qwerty-en" /> to <script name="latin" keylayout="qwerty-br" />
Could anyone tell me step by step how to change the keyboard layout? Since yesterday my phone use the english keyboard layout and I don't know how to fix it.

[SOLVED] SE Xperia X10 mini pro with GingerDX v21b - "Sym" key not working properly

[SOLVED] SE Xperia X10 mini pro with GingerDX v21b - "Sym" key not working properly
I've looked for a solution o a similar question, but i think there isn't another post about this issue. It's my first post about a problem I can't solve, although I have used this ROM since version v009 (good job, devs!), because I fixed all other problems (e.g. keybord lights and notification leds) thanks to questions sent by others o tips found on forum.
This time, upgrading from a previous version of GingerDX for SE Xperia X10 mini pro (I think v013) to the newest v21b, the "Sym" key (that one on the right) doesn't work properly, but it just do the same action of the blue key on the left, whereas the "Sym" key should show the symbols menu on screen or the alternative characters (holding down the "Sym" key and typing a letter). I don't remember if this problem affected the previous versions, but I'm unable to solve it now. I tried to wipe cache and Davlik cache (in addition to factory reset) before re-flashing the ROM and I tried also to switch between the two keybords (Android and HTC) which are pre-installed, but nothing happens and the behaviour of the phisical keybord is the same, with no change.
Could anybody help me to solve my problem? I like this ROM so much so I don't want to change.
Thanks in advance and thanks a lot to the developers who worked on this ROM
P.S.: Sorry for my bad English.
I usually disable the 'android keyboard' and any other installed keyboards, ensure that 'default input' remains checked. Thats the only way I can find to keep the Sym key working as it should.

You need to download this file from atachments and flash it via CWM or xRecovery.
This is file from 1st post of rom that you are installed.
After you flash this file, you can select default input.
