Writing Ukrainian on Nokia E70

I am not sure I write to the correct forum, but as an owner of Nokia E70 and a former programmer I need help.

Please forward this message to the correct people. In Ukraine I was not able to fix the problem.

In my phone I am able to choose Ukrainian as writing laguage ( by pressing Shift + Chr ).

But the keyboard become Russian instead of Ukrainian!

What I mean. There are several specific letters which are different in Ukrainian and Russian. The Ukrainian has “і”, “є”, “ї” and “ґ”. Russian has “ы”, “э” and “ъ”.

The normal 101-keys PC keyboard uses this difference. When one selects Russian and press latin “S” he get russian “Ы”. When one selects Ukrainian and press latin “S” he get ukrainian “І”. The similar pairs exist for “Э” – “Є”, “Ъ” – “Ї”.

Now, on my Nokia E70, when I want to enter some specific Ukrainian characters, for example “і” – (i with dot) or “ї” (i with two dots) I need to press Chr and then select the character I need. This is very inconvenient.

I am aware that 56-keys E90 keyboard is not 101-keys PC one. Developers were not able to link all russian characters to the separate key (Russian “Ъ” can be entered only via Chr key). For specific Ukrainian characters I propose the following keys: “S (Ы)” for “І”, “`(Э)” for “Є”. The “Ї and “Ґ” as much more rare letters could be entered as now – via Chr key.

As I understand this problem could be easily fixed.
