Exclamation Keyboard Layout messed up

So, when I got my Pre Back from service, the Keyboard Layout (the special keys) was messed up.
Orange + U = "Ü" instead of )
Orange + I = ")" instead of %
Orange + O = "Ö" instead of "
Orange + P = "-" instead of =
Orange + A = "Ä" instead of &
Orange + S = "ß" instead of -
Orange + , = "&" instead of _

It is a German O2 Pre, it was not exchanged and the keyboard worked fine before sending it in.
I tried restoring it with WebOSdoctor and ereasing all data but nothing helped.
Thank you for reading this and I hope that you can help me.

Okay, What I know now is that palm flashed the Pre+ software on my Pre and when I doctor, it thinks its a Pre+ and reflashes it as a Pre+.

Can I somehow trick the Doctor to flash my Pre- with the Pre- Software again even if it's thinking my Pre- is a Pre+?

//EDIT:
Just tried restoring it with a Pre Plus Doctor and it was actually recognized, But i cancelled the Process because I don't know what that would do to my Pre...
I also just contacted WebOSInternals on Twitter if they knew any way into tricking the Pre- Doctor to flash the right keyboard layout.
