tmobile g1 german keyboard layout qwertz
July 7th, 2009 by chaos
hi guys!
yesterday i updated my phone to the HERO image.
nice design, but veeery slow!
and i had one BIG problem: the physical keyboard layout was QWERTY
so how to change it back to QWERTZ? Here’s the answer:
download the keyboard file and copy it to the /sdcard :
and open the terminal emulator on the phone, or thru adb:
su mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system cd /system/usr/keychars/ dd if=/sdcard/trout-keypad-v3.kcm.bin of=trout-keypad-v3.kcm.bin mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
and you are done!
cheerio, chaos
