Reg Edit to change default input method?? - Touch CDMA General

I am looking for a regedit to change the default input method. I am particularly fond of PCMKeyboard and use it religiously but every time I soft reset it always defaults back to the 20 button Touch Keyboard.
Thanks in advance, Dan.

Took me a while to figure this out, but you have to first completely disable the Touch keyboard. If you use the standard default sip settings Touch keyboard will always override it on a soft reset.
Reversible method:
Go to [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{198D503A-EFFE-4afd-BC54-EED333C80E6D}\InprocServer32] change the default value from \windows\ezinput.dll to something else like \windows\del_ezinput.dll
Also change the default value at [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{198D503A-EFFE-4afd-BC54-EED333C80E6D}\IsSIPInputMethod] to 0
Do the same thing at [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{62B00599-25D2-4e09-8C48-03BF26DB8517}]
(Note: You can also completely delete these two keys rather than renaming the values.)
Then you can use the standard method of setting the default sip. Go to [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip] change the defaultim key to the right value for PCMkeyboard (never used it so i'm not sure). Just search HKCR\CLSID for the keyboard you want and copy down it's CLSID with the brackets then put that in for the defaultim.
Let me know if that doesn't make sense and I'll explain it more thoroughly.

Awesome. Thanks a bunch man. Worked like a charm.

Or others that need to change the default SIP may use the attached .cab. Have fun ...

thank you so much, this was getting to be so annoying

I have tried sipchange however the standerd is still wrong after a soft reset. Sipchange hasn't really done anything or do I need to follow a certain order?

look for a program called IMSelector. It works on my Touch where SIPChange did not

I did that and and it killed my Touch. I had to reset then restore backup. Basically after I made the changes and rebooted it kept coming to black screen with no functionality. Has anyone had that problem? (Before that I had the SIP change installed. Could have been the problem?)
Thanks,

Has anyone been able to make the registry method work on the Touch?
I've tried it twice ad both times I get a dead reboot. So I had to hard reset and restore from backup.

I also get a dead reboot. Looks like OP forgot to mention something...
BTW, TouchPal's CLSID might be
{802C691C-EB46-442c-BC54-DC2C42B156C3}

I use this method on my touch immediately after a hard reset and it always works. I think the instructions are pretty clear.
Are you deleting the key or just renaming it.
Also could you try backing up your phone then hard resetting and following the directions before you reinstall/restore anything. You can use Mobile Registry Editor to make the changes through Activesync.

I renamed the first two and deleted the second two. Maybe b/c I didn't do it once after hard reset.

works fine for me... i prefer the standard keyboard as well.. anyone know if it's possible to enlarge the keys a little more by a registry setting? i'd like to keep the "Large" keys but also retain the number keys on top as well. if i switch to large keys the number pad disappears, possible to have numbers+larger buttons?
if this is in the registry, anyone know where i should look or is the standard keyboard size fixed?

IMSelector did not work for my vogue but SipChange did. No need to fool around with the registry which I'm scared to try.

Did you try to use SKTools? I use this app. and its woking on my HTC Diamond.

To cwzkevin,
I have also experienced deadlocks at the next boot. They seem to be related to using an wrong CLSID for the desired new input method. At least for each language this is different.
My changes, according to the original post from EliteXen, did work on a german Swisscom branded HTC Touch Pro, but provoked the black screen on reboot on a english Swisscom branded HTC Touch Diamond.
I did delete both keys, not changing them.
So, look up the CLSID first, before using it.

Keyboard keeps popping up

I have an 8125 with Smartskey enabled. For some reason everytime I launch IE or begin a new e-mail or reply to an e-mail the keyboard popps up on the bottom of the scren. How can I stop this from happening?
Install NullKeyboard and set that as your SIP:
http://personales.ya.com/beemer/software1.htm
It's a Soft Input Panel that doesn't display anything.
Which one do I download for WM5?
nullkb.PPC3_CEF.CAB (13kB) QVGA Version
nullkb.VGA.CAB (10KB) VGA Version
erm.. this one, actually?

I loaded this and have chosen NullKBD as the option versus keyboard but it keep defaulting back to Keyboard and the keyboard keeps popping up. Does this version work with WM5?
I just tested 13 SIPs, and two of them - including NullKB - needed a soft reset after installing. 1 (TopKey) actually did that for me (after a dialog saying it would).
So try a soft reset.. should work fine after that
It worked!
Thanks for the help!!
Not working for me
I tried installing it and performing a soft reset, then setting the keyboard to be the nullkb (which appears as a choice), but it goes back to the regular keyboard. I'm using a T-Mobile MDA. Any ideas?
no ideas here :|
Have you uninstalled the previous version and installed this one of the spanish page?
http://personales.ya.com/beemer/download/nullkb.ARM4.CAB
If yes, Could you search in the registry for "nullKB" especifically under HKR, And if you find more than one CLSID try to delete both and reinstall.
Also verify that tou have the dll atlce400.dll

Try Twkcl.exe
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=15688
Maybe the solution, it works for my Tytn:
Make the registery change as described for the wizard.
Go to landscape (keyboard slided out) en go to start, settings, system, Screen, General (must be landscape), ClearType, enable ClearType.
Then: make a softreset not using youre stylus but trough the On/Of button, or Softreset trough other possibilties.
After a couple of resets it still works till now! Just testing right now the stylus reset: result: [email protected], so that is really the problem. Using the stylus hole softreset (what's the name for it? Resetbutton for stylus?).
So again procedure as descriped above en never use the resetbutton for stylus anymore until somebody discoverd a solution for it!
Has someone did the trick allready?
I'm going to try such trick, thanks..
I think that's an HTC issue, because it happens also on Qtek 9090...
On Motorola MPx I changed reg value one time and it always worked across lots of soft resets.

i never use 'resetbutton', but always resetting device with on/off button. even with that, cleartype in landscape mode seems to be lost after couple of resets (or maybe, offs/ons).
Can anyone confirm whether or not Twkcl.exe works?

At least you did get it to work. I have no luck with this method at all.
As I mentioned before, Twkcl.exe works well for me. Maybe you wanna try that and forget about tweaking the registry.
I think I know ur problem, try closing the reg editor from memory running programs screen before you reset. That worked for me, but am going to try twkcl now to get it to stay.
that's odd... I followed the instructions for TwkCL but it makes no difference, the reg setting goes back to normal after the 2nd reset.
I physically copied TwkCL.exe to the extended_rom, then edited the config file, that's all I need to do right?
Nothing happened so I edited the registry as normal and it just went back as usual.
Hope someone can help,
Cheers.

No need such complication....simply copy Twkcl.exe into the \Windows\Startup folder will do.
I believe the instruction is for effecting automated configuration during hard-reset so that Twkcl.exe will be copied to your STARTUP folder after each hard-reset.
Marvellous.
Thanks!

Changing Default Keyboard?

Just out of interest and im not really a fan of the default one. I have recently installed the Touch HD? Keyboard cab which has a really nice keyboard that is big enough to be used with fingers, is there anyway of setting this as the default instead of always having too select it instead of the small blue one? Hopefully it's just a registry setting but I can't seem to spot anything.
I don't think anyone seems to have asked this before either, certainly nothing came up in a search of default keyboard.
I don't have my X1 yet, so I'm afraid I can't comment on your problem.
But, I was wondering, does the hardware keyboard still work correctly (@, etc.), and have you lost predictive contacts with the hardware keyboard also? I'm trying to get a list of what to install when I get my X1, and I'm kinda stuck with regards to the keyboard, Touch Pal seems to be the way to go, as it doesn't replace the original DLL.
I went into settings->Input and switched it to full QWERTY, Now the HTC one pops up instead of the blue one.
by doing that, after soft reset the ketboard returns to the original small blue one...
I tried to switch it in iput settigs but i still ge the blue one. Do I need to do anything on the registry?
Get SKTools (not the Standard one, the full one) and set default keyboard there. The standard WM6 config page doesn't seem to remember settings when you try set the Touch HD keyboard as default.

I have installed a few different keyboards on WM6 with my xperia and all of them have not changed the layout of the hardware keyboard, it has not changed at all. It's only the software keyboard. Predictive contacts? Predictive words? It certainly suggests words on the normal blue one, though I haven't noticed it on the Touch HD one, though to be honest I don't like anything predictive.
I have also been changing it and yes it sticks with it but as soon as the phone is switched off and back on, it changes back so I presume it's something in the registry but i've no idea what to look for. Certainly "keyboard" doesn't show anything or indicate anything that could be changed.

Changes to default keyboard via SKTools is permanent, it stays even after phone is switched off/on.
Thanks for the help thus far. I have been using SKTools since you mentioned it now and have found on a couple of occassions that it doesn't save and I need to change it. The majority of the time it does. Now you can enable/disable certain parts but the wierd thing is you cannot fully default to a different keyboard. When I select the Full QWERTY keyboard as default it sets and says Completed 1 in a little pop up box (I think it's completed) Regardless once you do that, if you try and disable or remove the default Keyboard (wm6 default) it says that you cannot because it is set at default and you must select another to be the default first. Which contradicts itself because it won't let you.
It's obviously a registry key somewhere that can be changed but to hell if I can find it. Im only using SK tools for this purpose so it would be nice to find it and then remove the utility.
Any further ideas?

Thanks Prosto that did the trick though I seem to have broke something. I don't think this is related but...
After I did the registry change I uninstalled SKTools and restarted the phone, then tried to start windows media player. While it starts, as soon as I try to play any type of music/video, look in the library or update library the phone freezes and I have to take the battery out to reset it. Don't understand where I was going wrong with this, i've obviously buggered something up but not being able to listen to my music is a big downer! Don't suppose you would have any ideas?

[REQ] WM6.5 - fixing the SIP Menu!

Hi,
I realize that this question was asked a million times on the forum, but I've been looking for a solution since yesterday and just can't find it
Can anyone tell me how can I change the default touch input language (T9) on Windows Mobile 6.5? I'm using the Rhodium Manila with the new Keyboard and I have by default english language (I'd like to have polish).
I cannot change this in any way. I've tried to do it by registry in several keys, but it won't work.
Thanks in advance for the help!
Hey,
for me this worked:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3865875&postcount=362
else you can change HKLM\Software\HTC\ezsip\BioToShowMenu to 1 (in registry) and wait for few seconds.. (not more than 10sec) that "starts" the sip-menu, and you can click on your language
maybe it says [unknown] in the menu, then click there, that brings you to the language submenu
hope that helps you

Great! It helped, thanks a lot
Sorry for the double post, just wanted everyone to notice it
I've made a cab, which changes the registry value (thanks to tomoffel), so that you have easy access to the SIP Menu. I tried to do it as a reg file, but it would require some additional program to run it.
Just install it (don't mind if it shows 'The installation was unsuccesful') and voila
The cab is rather only for WM6.5, where the SIP menu is hidden.
great idea! Thank you!
just poping up the SIPmenu after "installation"?
btw. found the BioToShowMenu entry by playing around in the registry, don't know if this was known befor maybe that helps to fix the SIP menu in 6.5?
Yeah, exactly I thought that changing the reg value everytime I want to change the language or keyboard type is a but uncomfortable. It's a pity though that running reg files requires some additional software, because it would be faster.
That's some nice discovery of you with that reg value I'm not that so much in WM, but I hope this can help!
Ok, here's the other way. You have to install an app (FdcSoft Task Manager), it will associate reg files, so that after clicking one the reg value will be changed.
Here's the reg file content:
Code:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\ezsip\]
"BioToShowMenu"=dword:00000001
The last line must be empty!
Credits for finding the reg key go to tomoffel
And here's the ready file in the attachment.
great and awesome! works like a charm

Good to know Here's another upgrade to access the menu faster - just do a shorcut and put it into start or assign a hardkey for it
I assigned the shortcut to GScrolls Launch function now wenn I tap back and center, the SIP-Menu comes up! Thank you again
now you/we/the uber pros just have to find a way how the "SIP-Button" shows that menu.. but it looks like nobody is interesstet :/
Offtopic:
can you add new words to the xt9 database? This never worked for me :/ neither after hardrest nor after installing another sip that uses the xt9 :/ (just ask because I see you use the same ROM )
That's a good idea with assigning the menu to GScroll, will try it myself
I noticed already yesterday that adding new words to t9 doesn't work It could be an issue with the rom we are using. Would be nice to have some feedback from anyone with a different rom...
yes.. pretty poor nobody on the ROM thread could give me an answer :/ I will play a little with the registry and file from ezSIP maybe I'll find another "solution"

Camera Initialisation Error

Hi,
Before posting this, I searched the forum and have only found posts years old.
This issue I am facing at the moment is a camera/video camera issue stating the following:
Unable to initialize camera. Failed to set up the camera device.
I only really noticed this happening since doing camera related registry tweaks such as the 8MB, or additional hidden modes. Originally I applied the tweaks using a registry editor, but now I use the lastest BSB Tweaks application. The issue seems to arise whether I have the tweaks turned on or off so I am not suggesting that the tweaks are actually to blame. I have been tweaking this phone so much that it could be anything.
Anyway, a random soft reset here and there fixes it, but I was just wondering if anyone else has experieced this issue with the HD2?
Thanks in advance.
Sounds like you may have inadvertantly caused this issue with a bad registry edit.
If so, you'll need either a complete overhaul of the camera registry settings, or a hard reset.
I've only ever used the camera tweaks in BsB, and my camera works fine (I've never seen your problem). If you like, I'd be happy to either export or list the registry keys and values off my phone that might help.
Were all the registry hacks within one key, do you know, or where they in different places. (I don't know if there's just one key for camera settings, with sub-keys, or if they're spread about the registry.)
Hi there,
I've been getting this also, I think I've narrowed it down to the swype keyboard I'm using...
I haven't changed default keyboard with SIP so I have to manually change keyboard whenever I boot, sometimes the swype keyboard doesn't come up, it flashes like it's going to change but remains on the default keyboard. When this happens I can't start the camera. When the change is seemless the camera works fine. A soft reset usually fixes it.
Are you using swype? Have you tried removing any other tweaks to see if it helps?

I am using Swype also, but never experienced an issue using this great keyboard. After posting the message, I did a soft reset and it is working again.
I think I will remove Swype for a while and see if the problem returns. I have all the CABs on my SD card anyway, so not a hassle to reinstall.

Since there's only a few of them, I'll just list the values I have, rather than export the lot and end up changing ALL your camera settings.
These are the values for the registry keys in the 1st post on that page.
HKLM\software\htc\camera\image\jpegquality\superfine
5Msize = 746028
HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera\P2
EncodeFormat = 48
HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera\P1
EncodeFormat = 2
HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera\recparam\MP4VGA
BitRate = 2097152
Hope this helps
Edit:
How strange - I didn't put that space in "superfine", and it's not there when I edit the post!

It doesn't happen all the time, only when I try to change from default to swype keyboard and it *doesn't* load properly, then the camera issue appears. I've also applied all tweaks for the camera using BSB.
It's very random but I've now flashed to Miri's rom and so far no swype issue and no camera issue!
Thanks, I will check these settings before and after toggling them in BSB Tweaks.
My hd2 has the same problem.
I just tried hard reset my device and install new rom, but it still comes out all day.
Some time a soft reset can take effect, but some time only hard reset can make the camera work.
When the issue comes out, it seems the Opera Mobile 10 beta can not work correctly either.
PS: I didn't use any of the tweaks.
I also got this error once and a soft reset corrected it. Don't know the actual cause.
I have BsB tweaks installed, but no Swype.
I had this problem before too, i remember it happened after I made registry tweak on the video recording quality. its gone after I restore to the default value. I did not use swype keyboard, but i did installed bsb tweak.
I had this problem as well when trying to create my own reg cab to change all the settings I wanted upon a hard reset. It messed with a lot more than just camera not initializing. I narrowed it down to the camera reg settings but not sure which one, I couldn't bare hard reseting my device 5 times in one day.
The only reg tweak I have for the camera is the 8MP one which hasn't messed it up.
happened to me too.
have BsB tweaks installed, dont have swype.
only soft reset fixes the problem.
I didn't make a registry tweak manually, I did this with BsB tweaks and don't have any problems with it. I really think you need to change back, the reg. tweaks you did manually! GL!
ok, restored all default camera values in the registry - problem still exists.
i found out that if i soft reset the device and then start the camera it works fine.
problem happens when i use a program before using the camera.
any ideas?

Just uninstalled this. Lets see if that makes a difference. I dont even use the camera, so despite noticing the problem, it doesnt actually affect me much.
I have this problem approx. every third time I want to use the camera. The only way to fix it then is a soft reset.
I've installed several tweaks/patches but no swype.
Hi all,
I had the same problem but I manage to solve it in a very weird way.
This might sound really strange, but have any of you put something between the battery and the cover? When I went home over Christmas I use another SIM card to lower my roaming charges. I didn't want to loose my other SIM card when not is use so I used a piece of tape and put the sim card on the soft "pillow" on the back of the battery cover. It just barely fit and I was happy with the fit.
When I did this I also started to experience that the camera could not initialize. At first I thought it had something to do with my old SIM, and I did a test to put in my new SIM and the problem disappeared (this without my other sim between the battery and the cover) I thought I just had to live with it until I got back and could start using the proper SIM. But when I got back I switch SIM but the problem still existed. I then started to suspect that it was actually the other SIM pressing against the battery that was the culprit and as soon as I removed that the camera has been working fine.
So the only conclusion I could make is that if there is pressure on the battery that somehow causes the camera to not initialize properly.
Hope this helps...
Cheers
Jonas
