Soft Keyboard problem: very nagging - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

Hi,
I have noticed that in the normal mode when you activate the keyboard to enter a string in a textbox of a program, it works okay, but there is no way to collapse the keyboard back.
The result is that very often, the "OK" or "CANCEL" buttons in the program are at the bottom (not the soft key options) are overlapped by this soft keyboard. I have tried clicking in some blank space to get rid of the keyboard but it stays there.
The only way is to tap to another tab which collapses the keyboard.
Has someone found any solution to this ? (Qtek 9100, original rom)
One more problem: Even when I set the clock to 12hr format, it doesnt know the AM, PM on the title bar. Is there any registry hack to do this. I know the one for modifying the short date format.
Short Date Format to show "Mon/2" (example):
HKLM\nls\overrides\SSDte = "ddd/d "
Can somebody help me with these issues
Thanks
Anup

Phone app path

Hi,
I'm trying to remap my left softkey to the phone application.
What path do I need to find the Phone application? I can't find it.
Just te be clear:
I'd like my left soft key on the today screen to link to this app:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Where can I find the right path?
Errrm...why do you want a softkey link to the Phone? just pressing the dial button will start it...
anyway, Phone is somewhere in the Windows directory if I remember correctly(I recall seeing it there once...).

Old habits I guess, I want a Phone button on my screen.
I can't find one in the Windows directory (latest PDAViet rom).
I just fixed it by linking to
\Windows\Start Menu\Phone.lnk
That's a way to have it work too...

move to next word in T9 Mode

Hi folks,
On my HD, when I'm in T9 mode, I have arrows keys that I can use to get to the next word on the screen when there is a list of possible words (a bit like the * key used to be on Nokias to scroll through the list of possible words).
So, in the screen shot below I've type PURPOSE...but the same keys are used to type SUPPOSE. To get to the word SUPPOSE, I just press the right arrow key and I can scroll through the list of words

The keyboard on my girlfriends Jade doesn't have any arrow keys, so how does she move to the next word?
thanks

Disable xt9 toggle on keyboard?

is there a way to disable only the toggle button on the default keyboard?
coz i see when i enter to fields like in a search box, the xt9 button is grayed out. like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
but when i enter into sms editor it turns on again like this:
i want it to be like in the 1st one when i use the keyboard. i dont have very much use of xt9 here in my country and it only gets in my way when im speed typing by accidentally pressing it when im pressing the 'a' key
is there a reg tweak to make the layout or mode of the keyboard to be all the same wherever?
i too am looking for such a tweak.can anyone shed some light on this query?
i want the same thing. can anybody give us some tips. pls
+ 1. Im sure this can be realised by some registry modification. Any one can help with this?
Ok i looking arround and i found a way to fix this. XT9 switch key on keyboard looks the same, but if will be swithed to XT9 possition XT9 not working, but unfortunely letters don't appear. Only in ABC possition writing is possible.
Only what need to do is run Registry Editor (i use this dedicated to Resco File Manager) and search "Tegic". If you find it delete it. After that restart is needed.

Swype blocks the text box in Talk sometimes.

Has anyone else ever seen this? Start writing a lengthy message in Talk, then go do something else without sending the message. (I was playing a game of Wordfeud.) Then come back to Talk and try to resume your message.
The attached photo is what I get. The only way I can get it to start typing at the end of my message is to open the hidden Swype editing keyboard (swipe from the Swype key to the SYM key) and press the down arrow until I'm at the bottom of the text box.
I can work around the issue, but it's kind of annoying. Just thought I'd share the issue and the work-around. Maybe you guys have a better solution.

}
I mostly get it in larger edit boxes, most annoyingly when it came up and covered the xda app's password box, I touch the keyboard, instead I submit an empty password... Still registered behind the keyboard.
Must have missed the swipe from swype key to SYM key, most excellent, thanks!
Sent from my Vibrant.
if that's the same issue I've experienced with a misaligned swype box I've found the easiest fix is to tap the back button, which usually just exits swype on the first tap. then you can click into the text field and get realigned

Action Screen problem

Hi, there are a number of very good action screen cabs for the HD2, e.g. the 12 Button Action Screen on the Co0kie Energy ROM.
I want to have two different ones, one mapped to the right hard end key and the other to the left soft key.
Problem: whichever cab I install, it maps the action screen to *both* the right end key and the left soft key. If I install another one, or try to map the left soft key to another one, it doesn't work: each cab maps to both the hard and soft key.
Does anyone know a tweak guaranteed to work so I can map one action screen to the left soft key and another to the right hard end key? It might not be possible with action screens, I don't know. But maybe there's a registry tweak or other mod that will do this?
I hope I'm making sense!
Thanks guys,
David

I mean End Key
Yes, that's what I mean. I want something like that for the End Key, but a *different* action screen (of which many are available) for the left soft key.
