Hi,

Is there a way to change to Qwerty key board. Since the keys all in english.
here is the key mappings
y -> z
z -> y
, -> o (with two dots on top)
. -> a (with two dots on top)
@ -> u (with two dots on top)
' -> ,
? -> .
Could you please help me so I can change to Qwerty key board. How to find what firmware version i have.
Please guide me. I am very much disappointed.
Thanks
Please help me.. any one!!!
I don't know if this will help but have you tried reinstalling the firmware? You should be able to do it with the Nokia Software Updater application for Windows:

Step 1. Try reinstalling the firmware using Nokia Software Updater (NSU). It will install the most actual firmware that is corresponding to the productcode of your phone, and the productcode defines the keyboardlayout of the phone. (NSU tells you where to finde that code, see link in post above).
Step 2. If the keyboard-layout from the firmware does not match the keyboard-layout from the phone, someone might have changed the productcode. You can find the original productcode under the battery of the phone. When you google for "change nokia product code" you find links to Nemesis Software Suite (NSS), and you find some "how-to's" with additional explanation. You mus install NSS to find the acutal productcode, and then you can compare the numbers. If needed, change it back and retry step 1.
Step 3. One option is, that someone has changed the productcode to install the most actual firmware (210.21.006 for an european RM-346, check out by pressing *#0000#), and after the firmware was installed, he/she has changed the productcode back to the original one. You will not be able to downgrade the firmware! In this case, you are only able to reinstall the firmware when the firmware for the original code is minimum the same firmware (or newer, of course). The only thing you can do then, is finding a productcode for a corresponding keyboard-Layout and use that to update your phone (step 1).
As far as I know, EURO1 will match your needs regarding the keyboard. It shoud work on a european headset. But please make sure. I am not responsible for any of your actions!
Good Luck, don't brick your phone!
