thanks!

the only change in 2.16 is the kernel. afaik, you can never recieve calls or sms in EvDO mode. maybe the setting did not take...

Is there a way to remap the SYM key on the keyboard from Internet Explorer to all the symbols that it's supposed to show?

Million Dollar ?uestion!

if thats the million dollar question then i have no faith in the WinMo community...

a simple search using CeRegEditor of SYM turns up the following:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\KeyboardConfig\Keys\65 \*\Click
DWord is: KeyCode
Value is: 197

Find out what value the SYM pad is and GG you win, I tested this idea out with Keys\73\*\Click (its the HOME button for those who dont know, if you click the # in this case 65 it lists in the DWord SYM as the name and HOME for 73) and changed its KeyCode value to 197 then reset the device, now whenever i press home IE starts... seriously...

....

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys\4 0C5\

values here also point to Internet Explore.lnk they probably also need to be changed...

information also in the key shows \windows\symselector.exe which i could not find (also .exe?)

PS, from what i found the link is KeyCode 116, however since symselector.exe is missing when i replace the keycode the phone does nothing (probably because its MISSING)
PSS apparently its been MIA for a long time... a different method is needed i guess as its an invalid entry (why keep it if its invalid :/)

Hmm, I wonder if symselector.exe can be pulled from one of the many roms that do have it and dropped into the windows directory. Well I can't get myself to try it right now, I flashed my phone like 10 times yesterday and can't get myself to do it today.

sadly not a fix however... which is why i posted the information incase it helps..

PS: Sorry keyboard stopped working again and did nothing so i figured it did nothing

, so why isnt this fix standard on your rom then?

**dcd** · #**519** (**permalink**) 09-18-2009, 09:24 AM

Thanks DCD that worked perfectly.

It didn't seem like it was going to be a fix at first, rather seemed like it was just going to make that key do nothing. But apparently that exe is a part of EzInput, and that's what is broken.

Anyway, thanks a lot for the fix!

Anyone have a good Opera 9.5 cab for this rom? I did a bit of searching yesterday and found all of one, but it isn't working all that well. Seems slow. It's some Opera 9.5 Rhodium XDA version. Anyone have something else handy?
