FN+SYM key for special Characters-Need Help
 

Hi all.
In my other devices with hardware Keyboard i.e. Xperia, HTC Tilt I, and Eten M700, I used the keys FN+SYM to enter special characters (with the aim of the sym.0409.txt file). For example: I pressed the "a" key then pressed FN+SYM key, then de "a" has been changed to "á" and so on. In the TP2 displays the symbols software keyboard.
Any body knows the reg. key for use the FN+SYM key like described above???


Thanks in advance.

I assume you have done this.

How to use Provision:

1)Settings > Connections > Mr.X CDMA Provisiong.

2) Click the button beside you carrier.

3) Click commit in the bottom right.

4) Reboot when asked.


I was looking to see if that rom requires you to use a .cab for Sprint keyboard. Maybe you already know if it does or not.

You could try the Sprint fix here. Although it may not apply to that rom. Not sure. Since it seems Sprint and Telus should be the same and the rom you are using was created by a Telus user.


Keyboard Symbols Don't Work / Home Key opens Start Menu!! / Button Mappings!

• Verizon - Install THIS CAB and Restart the phone! (Thanks Fronc for the ROM dump info)
• Sprint/Telus - Install THIS CAB, and Restart your phone! (Thanks to banzaiwolfe for the ROM dump info)

Thanks....but i forgot tell you I'm in Mexico and my carrier it's Iusacell. So i can use only the registry. key???

I would try the Sprint keyboard fix and see if that corrects your problem.

What happens when you push your sym button now?

Re: FN+SYM key for special Characters-Need Help
 

Nothing new happens....
When i push the "sym" button appear the symbol keyboard in the screen...

Perhaps I'm not up on what the keyboard fixes people are mentioning are supposed to do, but I don't think the OP has an actual problem with his keyboard. The Fn+SYM key combination sounds like it's doing what it's intended to do i.e. pop up the SYM window. It looks like he's try to get it to do more than it was supposed to e.g. press a, followed by Fn+SYM, and have it automatically change the "a" to "á" instead.

Sorry OP, I've not come across that feature before. With so many different variations of the a, e, i, o, etc keys with accents, caret, hats, etc. how would the system decide which one to default to anyway when you pressed Fn+SYM after entering that specifc key?

Yes...exactly.....
I had these function in my Xperia, at&t Tilt I.......
The Fn+SYM key combination works in conjunction with the file stored in the \windows\sym.0409.txt
