Is it possible to set the default input method? It's really annoying when the Phone Pad pops up when i only use the keyboard. In several programs the little triangle for changing input doesn't show up either.
Yes, it's somewhere in the registry...
Personnaly I use Pocket Tweak (http://tillanosoft.com) to modify it...
Installed and fixed. Thanks!

I'm looking for a way to make the Letter Recognizer the default data input method (instead of the On Screen Keyboard). It seems as if I'm soft-resetting my device at least once a day, and reselecting which data input method I want to use is a task I'd like to eliminate.
Also, is there any way to disable the currently selected input method from popping up automatically when text controls have the focus?
I'm assuming both can be accomplished by changing a setting in the registry.
Thanks,

Search this site for "Sipchange", a very useful utility created by Sleuth255.

Hey,
Another HP iPQS 614c question - I've set the default input method to T9. However, what I'm seeing is that this only applies to certain text boxes. It generally works okay for SMSs, but, it doesn't work when entering information into Internet Explorer.
Is this the behaviour other people see?
Does anyone know how to make the default actually be the default for all entry places?
Si
IN THIS APP YOU CAN ALSO SET INPUT METHOD (QMENU/SIP)

yes, all this does is change the system setting. nothing more.
the problem is that the system setting, the "default", well its only a default for certain types of input box.
try setting it to T9, then load internet explorer and click in the address bar. you won't be on T9.
I got this tool to default SIP even after restart.
I already forget where I find this tool.
Hope help for you.

SIP Change
wow abe you really get around. I appreciate all your help. I dont understand what a sip is though. i installed the resco keyboard and there was an option to set it as default, now i want the 2manyphones pcm keyboard to be my default but I cant figure out how to change it. And I cant uninstall it cause it always says its in use. once again I need the kings knowledge! thx man

did you try switching to a different keyboard before uninstalling?
ya it still says theres a sharing issue and it cant be uninstalled
Make sure under all settings for each keyboard, that it's not set as default, if it has that option. Then open SIP change and set it to whatever one you want as default, with about a 15 second delay time, and after a soft reset, you should be fine.
SIP = Soft Input Panel or Secondary Input Panel
Hi,
I use Touchpal V3.5 and i absolutely love it, if you haven't tired it I highly recommend it, especially good is the mixed language input and I actually type faster using touchpal+gsen in landscape mode than I did with a hardware keyboard (a worry that almost prevented me from buying this marvelous device). I do have two little niggles that would be great if i could overcome somehow:
1. Setting Touchpal to the default keyboard does not stick after a restart/reset. I have to change the keyboard each time i start up. I tried SIP Change but it doesn't seem to have an option for running at start-up....anyone know if i can get at the registry somewhere or something?
2. When I first open it, if i try to type in Chinese before using English, it freezes in a bad way, disabling EVERY window that tries to call the sip and requiring a soft reset to make the phone useable again. If I open it, type something in english, and then switch the input to chinese it runs like a charm until I restart again...what is that about?
Actually neither of these issues is a deal breaker, but it would be nice not to have to worry about it, is anyone else having these troubles?...any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
touchpal
i have touchpal also and cant keep it as default. Ive tried all the fixes there are on all the threads. Doesnt work for Touchpal. any suggestions or fixes would be greatly appreciated.
Well I figured out the answer to problem one on my own...TF3D takes a little time to load and interferes with SipChange so you need to adjust the delay so as to happen after TF3D is finished.
Just tap SIPChange, select the IM you want, and set the time to 45 seconds (shorter may work). Bingo, stays the default IM on restart
whats the difference (apart from it's tabulated) between touchpal and "compact QWERTY" mode keyboard?
you also need to Go make this change: HKCU\Software\HTC\BootLauncher\Apps and remove the folder called "Startkey"
I have the same problem with touchpal, where do i do this?

@FRUSTIN:
TOuchpal is third-party software by CooTek, "Compact Querty" is just a different layout for the tock HTC input method. TOuchpal is MUCH more feature rich and just kicks the [email protected] out of the default keyboard in every way, it supports tons of languages and multi-language input (go back and forth between two languages in the same sentence without changing any settings), web hotkeys, adds copy/cut/paste and D-pad to EVERY app, etc. check it out at www.cootek.com
@DIAMONDBS:
I did NOT do that and it works perfectly for me...why do you need to remove an entire folder from the registry? Can anone confirm this?
@WEETABIX1980:
Just go to start>programs>SIP Change, when the program opens you select Touchpal from the list of input methods and then change the numbers in the box below the list to 45, then click "Select"...should be the only button there...tapping "OK" is not good enough, be sure to tap "Select"
thanks, any clue what sip change in dutch is in the programs?
anyone knows this?
SIPChange is a little tool developed here at XDA:

Download the cab to your phone and install. This should then give you the options mentioned above.
Touchpal intermittantly hangs on me aswell. I post on here about it before. I tried allsorts to cure it (hard resets, clean installs etc). So annoying when demoing the phone to a friend and all of a sudden the keyboard hangs and wont popup.
I used to love Touchpal, now I hate it and will not install it on my phone.
just recieved my replacement hd so got all the fun of setting it up again lucky me, so nothing changed from the default programs, my problem is i cant change the keyboard over to something more useful like keyboard instead of the default setting
of phone keyboard any ideas how to resolve this.
Maybe you just don't have any other SIPs installed?
If you want to change the default keyboard, take a look at the registry setting for [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip]. "DefaultIm" specifies the default SIP. But be very careful with this, a wrong value here can prevent your device from booting.
You can find valid SIPs but searching the registry for IsSIPInputMethod
ok found [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip]. "DefaultIm" dosnt mean alot to me to be honest but havnt been able to locate the IsSIPInputMethod within the regisrty so far and when i do what doi do to change the default keyboard settins?
