N900 lost keyboard default map, how to restore?

My N900 has Scandinavian (Finnish) keyboard.
After installing a couple of games(Duke nukem 3d and Abuse) and I think one of these probably crashed, it got left in US keyboard mode (I think).
I see that there is a new file created called
/home/user/int_kb_layout
that has string "us" inside it.
Just deleting this file and restarting the phone does not help. Searching around I find that perhaps some tool called /usr/bin/gconftool-2 might need to be used, but I got more confused.
Therefore I might ask in general how one can get back their default keyboard maps for their N900?
Thanks,
Brett
Solved!

I found  resetting to factory setting worked to get me out of this problem:
1. got to menu
2. got to setting
3. with setting page open, next to battery icon on top of mobile center
4. click on setting
5. then restore factory setting

  • Lost my installation Disk: How to restore my Snow Leopard to last month's system ?

    Hi there,
    I am on Snow Leopard 10.6.8 but have llost my Installation DVD that comes with it.
    My system is now messed up and I want to restore it back to last month's status. I have Time Machine which I backup every month.
    How do I restore without the Installation DVD which I have misplaced ?
    Thanks

    But I do have the Lion Installation DVD from another iMac.
    Lion never came on a DVD. Snow Leopard was the last OSX version shipped on DVD.
    OSX DVDs the shipped with different Mac models, prior to Lion, are model number specific. You need to order a replacement set of DVDs that match your specific model.
    Command-C boots to the CD/DVD drive, hence the letter, "C."
    Command-R boots to the Recovery partition, hence the letter, "R."
    Only Lion, Mountain Lion, and Mavericks have Recovery partitions.
    Then this is good news. The disc that I have must be for Snow Leopard then.
    I found 2 DVDs.
    One says:
    Mac OS X Install DVD
    and the other:
    Application Install DVD
    Which one shall I insert into the CD drive ?
    Thanks

  • I lost my icloud agenda.How to restore this?

    You can't delete it...look on every page & in every folder...still don't see it: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout...see if you see it now.
    It can also be restricted, through restrictions...so, make sure restrictions are not turned on.

  • How to restore notes from the iPad 2

    how can i restore notes in the notes app on the ipad 2

    The only possibility of restoring your notes would be to restore from a backup that contains those notes. If you have a recent backup, you could try that. Bear in mind, when you restore from a backup - you restore to the exact condition that the iPad was in on the day that the iPad 's backup was created. So if you have more recent data in another app that you need to keep, make sure that you transfer that data or those files to your hard drive before you restore from the backup otherwise those files will be lost.
    This explains how to restore from a backup.

    How to restore a deleted default email map (Archives) in icloud?

    Hi electropleb. I have had the same problem. I for one would be very interested if someone could find a solution. I have four different accounts setup in Mail where the usage of each one is very context sensitive.
    It used to be really simple in Snow Leopard (I had it enabled), but in Lion it seems that a new email will be sent from whichever mailbox you are browsing at the time.

  • How to restore Windows 8 from a recovery USB on a tablet w/o physical keyboard?

    I bought a Lenovo IdeaPad tablet that came with Windows 8 Pro:
    http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/product-and-parts/detail.page?DocID=PD026486
    The first thing that I usually do is create a recovery disc. This time I was able to create a recovery USB drive. But then I thought of something -- how would I recover from it?
    I asked at the Lenovo community site and people told me to connect a USB keyboard and press Fn + F12 during booting. The issue is that, first, I do not have a physical keyboard for it. Do I really need to pay $50+ just to boot from a USB drive? And
    secondly, even if I got a physical keyboard this tablet has only one mini USB port so if I use it up to connect a USB keyboard, how would I connect the USB flash drive?
    So can someone clarify this for me? Again, all I need to know is how to restore from a recovery USB drive.

    Hello Again Zubedi35!
            Ok, I think I have it covered. First, you need a key to be able to proceed with the installation process. When you get a key, go online and download the windows 8 usb installer to be able to install a properly formatted
    installation of windows 8 to your usb drive; make sure you use a windows 7 or windows 8 computer to format and install windows 8 to your usb- very important! Once you have windows 8 installed to your usb drive, all you need is the key and the installation
    process on your pc will be a cinch. But before you get ready to do the installation of windows 8 to your desired computer, first you must do one thing- reformat your hard drive again. Since you said you have another computer (preferably a desktop), you may
    place the hard drive from your laptop that you are trying to install windows 8 on and place that hard drive into the other computer- but you will need an external device to place the hard drive in to be able to reformat it if you don't have a desktop computer
    with an extra bay (slot to put an extra hard drive into) to place the hard drive in and perform the reformatting. I would try to find someone with a desktop that has an extra bay to place that hard drive in and reformat it (it must be a computer with a windows
    7 or 8 operating system on it so that you may be able to see the drive and perform the reformatting process. If you choose to do this, you must turn the desktop computer off and open the side of the computer then connect the hard drive to the sata connectors
    of the open bay. Then, turn the computer back on and go to 'My Computer' (on windows 7 computer) or click the little folder (File Explorer) on the taskbar and look in 'Devices and Drives' and the hard drive should show up next to the main drive (Local
    Disk C:). Formatting your hard drive is just like formatting your usb- just uses a different method of connecting. Try and purchase an external USB Disk Drive to install windows 8 to your pc from a CD if you choose not to go through this process of installation
    by usb. I hope this helps and please notify me if you have any other questions or if you need help through the installation process- enjoy your Windows 8 computer!

  • , I-tunes can no longer 'locate' my library , after a botched cut & paste attempt to back-up onto an external drive. Still syncing with i-Pod but playlists lost , podcasts no longer syncing, Can't play music .. how to restore back to original state .

    I-tunes can no longer 'locate' my library , after a botched cut & paste attempt to back-up onto an external drive.Cant play any music as it "can't find" the library  Still syncing with i-Pod but playlists lost , podcasts no longer syncing.   How to restore back to original state . I have tried re-installing  - with no change

    I do the same thing as you do...
    My music is on an external drive as to not use up gigabytes of storage that need not be used for media.
    There are a couple basic principles to iTunes that I believe you should know.
    1. iTunes is not a media storage program. It does not store your media "in iTunes". It simply is an organization tool for your media already on a hard disk.
    2. As iTunes is not a storage mechanism, it has no way to "know" whether or not the media that is listed is actually there. This is where the "design" of iTunes comes into play.
    I like to think of iTunes as a bread-crumb trail. The "music" in iTunes, isn't actually there. The bread crumb is the location on the external hard drive.
    If that bread crumb trail disappears (in this case the external drive you use). If said external drive is not plugged in, that bread crumb trail is not able to be followed. iTunes is "lost" and unable to find the media. The only way to remedy this is to place the media on your local drive.
    To address your issue of the library. If you hold down shift, you can select your library on your external drive. It will be a file with an .itl extension. The folder name will be your external drive.
    I go into edit > preferences > advanced and set my library to the correct location. Make sure you check the box "Copy to iTunes Folder when importing" (or whatever it says).
    You can't fix the issue of iTunes not seeing the media if your drive is unplugged unless you physically move the content to your OS HDD...Or any other HDD you use.

  • Lost all my playlists and some music - how to restore?

    I'm running itunes on XP and when I booted iTunes today, all my playlists were missing and lots of music.
    I don't know of any major crashes or problems with my maching, but the music is gone from iTunes. I went to "mycomputer" and actually found all the tunes, but iTunes cannot find them, and of course, I lost all the playlists. (I've got multiple playlists for each family member and 2 bands in which I play....)
    Any ideas on how to restore the playlists and tunes? Why won't iTunes find the music that is actually in the iTunes music folder? I know i could probably drag all the tunes into iTunes again, and then make new playlists but it would take a lot of organizing......grrr
    Also, I have almost everything saved on my iPod. Is there some way i can transfer it all back to iTunes from my iPod?
    thank you,

  • How to restore a deleted built-in app (Maps)?  App disappeared: IOS 4 & 3GS

    Does anyone know how to restore a deleted built-in app?
    In my case the Maps app disappeared. According to other posts in this forum you cannot delete a built-in app such as Maps but it has happened on my iPhone 3GS.
    I'm running IOS 4.
    Morrow

    If you are unable to locate the Maps app you can still access it from the Spotlight search window. Just type in Maps, look for the familiar interstate 280 icon, tap there and you will enter the Maps app. This will work for you until you can locate the icon, which hopefully you will.

  • Updated my iphone 4 to iOS 5.0.1 and then lost all my apps. how can I restore them?

    updated my iphone 4 to iOS 5.0.1 and then lost all my apps. how can I restore them?

    As long as the apps are still available in the store, and you use the same iTunes account as you originally used to buy them, then you should be able to re-download them for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519 . If you download them to your computer's iTunes you could then try restoring to your backup and see if that restores them and their settings/content back to your iPhone - a backup doesn't contain the actual apps, just their content/settings, so for the restore to work fully iTunes needs access to the apps so that it can restore them.
