Disabling XT9 For Those That Don’t Like It

ukiya16 posted in the forums a cab he found that disables the XT9 input on the Shadow. Someone might want to do this if English is not their native language, they text or email in a different language, and prefer the ABC method of input. Instead of having to switch from XT9 to ABC every now and then this cab file makes the change permanent. The file is originally for a different device but works fine on the Shadow. You can read more about it and download the cab in this forum post.

NOTE: If you didn’t know already you can switch input methods between XT9/T9 English, ABC, 123, and Symbols pressing and holding the * (Star) key when in a text entry field like the address bar in Pocket Internet Explorer or in a text message.

there is absolutely no reverse to this?
If I remove the file t9 is gone for good?

How do you undo this patch? I downloaded it and then learned how to use T9 and am wanting to undo it. So is there a way?
