I've been using it for years and for some reason, at least on the Touch Pro 2, they disabled this function





IMPORTANT: Be sure that
HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9\XT9SupportMSSip has a value of 0
Simply change these two registry keys under:
HKLM\system\currentcontrolset\control\layouts\e001 0409

• Ime File: \windows\et9ime.dll --> Ime File: \windows\compime.dll
• Layout Text : ET9 IME --> Layout Text : COMP IME

Soft reset and you're done!





(Note: There is a slight change from the original post where the Sprint version is "ET9" instead of "XT9")


Edit: Ahem, credit goes to my post at WMExperts, where this was copied from. --Mal

IT WORKS GREAT!, but I can not switch the keyboard to Arabic language after the modifications of the IME.
