He told me I missed to include yellow combinations of some buttons in Hungarian layout, so I have also modified it so currently all yellow keys are available using alt+key combinations. That was part of my second pull request but now it is also included in FinQwerty. He said he will release next version soon, so it may be available in Play Store after some days. Hopefully before last stock of Pro1's are starting to arrive next week. 🙂 (And we get the pound we forgot too) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have a Qwerty version, but I'll try it anyway. Currently I try finQwerty US Intl. version, but I ran into a problem: I can't type / sign under Termux. It works everywhere else, but not under Termux... If @Anssi Hannula based on your version of hun_qwertz, could add a version of hun_qwerty to the next version of the finqwerty app, then it would be much easier to try it, because I wouldn't have to compile my own. Or is it enough just copy the kcm file somewhere in the phone? I haven't looked at this yet... Termux ignores the keyboard layouts generally, as it has its own. This allows you to make a custom layout for termux, but sometimes requires making a custom layout for it to work correctly. Win some, lose some.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FinQWERTY new version has just arrived, and it works in termux, too. In my opinion, only key combinations that are traditionally used in emacs mode will be overridden by termux. For example in FinQwerty US Intl. CTRL-P would be /, but since emacs i using CTRL-P as previous, it is impossible to type / in termux with his layout. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Moreover, fn+arrow combinations worked well under Termux but I had problems with it under Firefox for example, that is why I asked about an option to declare a function instead of fallback, and it was achievable by using "replace" term instead of "fallback", so it has solved the problem also under Firefox while it still works under Termux. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I tried the Hungarian layout in the official app. It is working fine, but it seems not usable for me. In worst case I will create my own layout as you did for yourself. I would prefer that all the letters and signs on the keyboard work where they are printed, additionally the Hungarian accented letters can be accessed on the keys where there was nothing else with fn originally. If it works, then I will do the same layout modification for my Gemini PDA, too... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Derecho 7 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 I believe this may be somewhat relevant to the thread; I went and implemented a Polish programmer's keyboard layout for the QWERTY Pro1 based on FinQwerty. For anyone interested in the changes, they are in a pull request waiting for feedback and an eventual merge: https://github.com/anssih/finqwerty/pull/9 . 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jordi 72 Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 I made a Swiss - French keyboard that I sent to Anssi Hannula (along with money beer). This could also benefit others as I tried to be as standard as possible, there are a lot of special characters not often used but I put them anyway as they are in the Swiss - French layout. 2 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jacob_S 128 Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Not sure if it was reported already, but when having selected the German layout for the physical keyboard in the system settings, yellow arrow + some keys does not work as expected. arrow+l gives ? instead of ' arrow+ö gives ö instead of \ arrow+ß gives ß instead of ? arrow+e gives e instead of € arrow+r gives r instead of ° 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EskeRahn 5,454 Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Sad, thought those bugs were ironed out. But thanks for reporting. Let us hope they are reading @Erik @Waxberry The fix is to use FinQwerty and select "German for physical qwertZ". 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Take a look at Finqwerty for example. You may modify it (as I did for my own) to have a custom layout or simply edit one of the KCMs and use the name of that specific layout as your custom one. That program does not run constantly but registers these layouts to be available in system. So basically it works the same way as any other layouts, no need of any special programs - I mean it is the same as if F(x)tec would put this file to the filesystem and tell the system that its name is Tsunero's custom keyboard.

If you only modify a .kcm file then you will see its original name but when you use it, it will be your own layout, but the original name also can be modified in an .xml file. Basically the .apk file is a compressed image (.zip), so theoretically you can modify its internals - you may open an existing .kcm then you can modify it, but I don't know if Android will accept this modified file. You can not just drop the file into the filesystem unless you have root access, but another file also should be modified which contains a name and reference to this file. Practically, Finqwerty does a similar thing but it doesn't need root access. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tsunero 211 Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 @VaZso Thanks, sadly this is beyond my abilities so I have to get used to what's provided by Finqwerty. Basically what I wanted was to have every key correspond to everything to get the Hungarian characters except modify a few because some of the defaults don't make sense to me. I also thought some characters could be set up with a long press but it doesn't seem to be a thing on the keyboard at all. I couldn't get Japanese working either, all I want it is to convert from latin letters but they just remain latin letters hm. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You may try to rename .apk to .zip and open it using WinZip, WinRAR or Total Commander for example. Inside, there is a directory /res/raw, you can see the .kcm files there. For example, you can find the Hungarian layout in pro1_qwerty_hun_1.kcm or in pro1_qwertz_hun_1.kcm depending on the physical layout of your phone. The difference is the mapping at the top of qwertz version. If you look inside these files, their format is simple. For example, if you modify in "key 7" section at "label, base" the written "7" to "8", then save this file inside this .zip archive, then you have modified the layout and you will have a 1,2,3,4,5,6,8,8,9-type number-row. 🙂 Now rename this .zip file back to .apk and try to install it to your device - I am not sure if it works this way, but it may - it worth a try... You also have to enable installing applications from unknown sources if I remember well. Anyway, I have tried to put Hungarian characters to their relatively correct positions in Finqwerty, but there are some keys missing and maybe "ő" had a strange position because of it. For myself, I use a completely different layout - for example, "ú" is at arrow+q position, which is similar to what I used in my N900 earlier. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If you skipped the set-up by the wizard then please go to hardware keyboard setting. This can go from drop down menu when after boot, or Setting - System - Languages and Input - Physical keyboard For QWERTZ user, please click "Setup Keyboard Layouts" and select German For QWERTY user, please remain unselected (default), please do not select US or UK English, please uncheck all.

Please write in English here, generally we don't understand Czech language only by Google Translate... Anyway, I think you bought a QWERTZ device and selected Czech language. The basic keyboard of Pro1 is QWERTY which is shifted and that is why the shifted layout you experience. Download FinQwerty which also has Czech layout for QWERTZ version of Pro1 and set it as your layout. It is not an active program but it registers appropriate files and it will work the way as any stock layouts. So FinQwerty is what you need. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
