Does anyone else find that with the Hermes, you'll be tapping away in the text messaging panel when all of a sudden the keyboard just tops working? The onscreen keyboard still works but it takes a reset to get the keyboard working again?
Hi
Yes I find that happens also occasionally and its really annoying . Has anyone a fix for this ? Firmware update maybe ?
cheers
Martin
Not sure if there's a firmware cure but definitely post if someones found a solution!
Hi,
Having the Universal - this also sometimes happens.
The solution is not 100% but I have found that pressing the contacts button (to launch contacts) seems to resolve it.
Perhaps it might work on the Tytn too!!
Matt
Nice one, will give that a try next time it happens!

Who has the same trouble in XDA Mini?
Go to Start/Settings/System: tap on Add Ring Tone, Power, Device Information, Button Lock... It always open Backlight setting. This trouble can not be solved by soft reset.
Maybe it conflicts with an unknowed software. I'm not sure. Anyone has experience about this? Pls help! Thank you!
I had teh same problem, seems to be related to the hebrew support I am using. When upgraded the hebrew version it was soved. Not your case I am sure but maybe soemthing similar.
Udi
hi.
This also happed to me before, also with the hebrew support, but also with SPB POCKET PLUS 2.5 installed.
the Quick fix to this problem was Soft Reset the device.
That worked most of the time, i think all of them.
From time to time when I do some action on the touch screen the START menu open no reason.
It is happen with no special pattern or certain point touching the screen.
And also happen with 2 different devices with the original and with the new ROM version
Is it a familiar problem ?
Thanks
Ori
Same experience
something to do ?
or it is one of the Trinity Sicknesses ?
any body else have this annoying problem ?
Thanks
Ori

Hmz....peculiar problem... I ain't got it like this, but i got some other quirk that seems very close to this: every now and then when i want to single-tap an item to start it (in explorer for instance), the rotating dots show and a context menu opens (like tap-and-hold)... It even happens when i use hardwarekey (ie press enter) to activate item; it still reacts like tap-and-hold
Only every now and then though...
I guess the official ROM update takes so long because of the extensive bug-list they'll have to fix
This second problem seems more like a hardware problem with the way the screen reacts to stylus taps.
Here the solution,from an italian forum: http://www.solopalmari.com/smf/index.php/topic,14373.msg64849.html#msg64849

Quick translation of those pictures into english: the build quality of this device is awful so there will be more and more "weaknesses" discovered through normal "wear and tear", such as paint problems, screen problems, button problems, etc.
I have found that if I have hit the little blue square (for function) and then hit a wrong key (say I hit Fn + ? and I get # but I wanted the number 9) so I hit backspace...it deletes instead as if the Fn button was still active, and will keep doing so until you hit any other key which will type normally, and then backspace will work again. Not the end of the world but happens to me often enough to be annoying!

Hrm, I haven't experienced this bug myself, but are you sure you didn't accidently hit the Fn key twice, putting it in Fn-Lock mode? It works the same way as the Shift key.
hello
i have the same problem it does happen very often
I have the swedish version and I can't reproduce this bug.
Which ROM do you have?
Yes, backspace / delete bug
Yes, I have exactly this problem as well.
I have X1i, UK version.
ROM: 1.02.931.3 (08/29/08)
I presume this is the latest ROM as well, as I've run the Sony tool to try and fix this problem.
As a note, I do have CE Star installed (chinese display). And I've also tried playing with the Glyph settings, no change to this problem.
Anyone have any idea how to solve it?
As an interesting note, in PocketPutty (the SSH client) backspace and space do not work... I'm wondering if this is a related problem. But maybe not.
Hope that helps.
I have a swedish X1 and something like this bug happening.
I can't say if it's exactly the same thing but sometimes the backspace becomes delete instead and I have to push some other keys to get it back to normal.
I called SE about it and some other things today. He said they didn't have any reports of it before but he would forward my report.
I've experienced this as well. Annoying. But what's even more annoying is the bug that throws around the Swedish letters ÅÄÖ when typing text messages...
This is still affecting me, according to the Sony update program I also have the latest firmware.
Anyone have any idea on this or a workaround? It is VERY annoying.
I had this problem on my TyTN II.
The FN key is a bit longer active after pressing a button.
I havn't withnised this problem on the xperia.
Xperia keyboard is fast. But mayb it's cause i'm on custom ROM.
Same problem here guys!
i've got the X1i dutch version
rom 1.03.937.6
software version R2AA006
hope a new update will help! can't wait to get rid of it!
hey guys,
not sure if this has something to do with it...but i just deleted some htc keyboards i had installed and no problems in the first 3texts... let you know if it stays that way! maybe someone else has these keyboards installed??
hope it helps...
Hello,
I currently use the phone keypad to type my messages, and sometimes after some words, when I press space it doesnt actually do a space. any ideas on what this could be, its really annoying when I look back and theres loads of words that are stuck together!
Thanks in advance.
Yes, I have a same problem, is there any solution for this?
Anybody help? Its really annoying
glad its not just me, i tryed turning off T9 etc.. but still does it
Yeah here also with a NLD rom. I need to push the spacebar somethings 2 times if I want a space in my text message.
I hope htc will fix it
Same problem here, I thought it was me not pushing it right
did you calibrate your screen?
before I calibrated my screen, I felt I have to skew my taps a bit (maybe its also an illusion with the glass touch screen's thickness when the actual image is behind 1-2 mm of glass) to touch the right keys. after calibration it seems better.
I find what is problem. When a tiny line is under letters, when i push space and then another letter, cursor go back. I don't know how to turn off this option and what is it for. Does anyone have solution? t9 is off in mu case and i use phone keypad.

you are right, the cursor does go back but im not sure how to stop it.
It is driving me insane because it takes me a long time to type a message now
its unusual that more people are not reporting this issue, is it a problem just with our devices, or maybe others are not concerned by this or unaware
Im having the same problem. When I had another ROM installed the keyboard had a bigger spacebar, but I went back to manila 2.1 and now it has the smaller one again...
Isnt there a way to alter the size of the spacebar in manila 2.1?
This is a common issue with XT9.
I suggest trying a different SIP and disabling all other settings other than ABC mode.
Hi there just wondering if anyone had/has this problem and knows how to fix it. Basically when i go to reply to a text message by clicking on it (from inside TouchFlo) the keyboard appears, then dissapears. When i click on the box to type, the keyboard comes up, then jumps back down. I have to press the 'Keyboard' button when the keyboard is down (to bring it up) then type somthing (which doesn't appear) and then press space...to even start typing anything. It's really odd, i've tried re-flashing both stock and a few other ROM's...same wierd problem...anyone?
THANKS!
I also have the same problem. If i double tap a message from within touchflo there is no problem but if i tap it once i have the keyboard problem. It has been bugging me for a while as well! Although it's not major, if anyone has a fix it would be much appreciated.
haha it's really annoying the double clicking things doesnt work for me...anyone got a fix? also what rom are you running? thanks
Deleted....
talking to some of my friends, i've realised that this happens on general windows mobile, not just this phone, therefore i will re-post in order to gain more publicity. Thanks
Fortunately for me, everything is working fine, as in the manuals, even after using this set for over a year now. When I click "reply" from within TF, it automatically gives a text/message typing area and a keyboard area at the bottom half which stays there. I can drop the keyboard down (and up) by tapping (once) the keyboard icon at the bottom centre. no problem.
ha! it's lucky for some! What ROM are you using? Thanks
