damn i'll try on hermes too ....and on my artemis ....
but in my ce emulator it also didn't work fully correct....
sometimes i just get black buttons....
It works on my Trinity (WM6) but not the symbol page. But I'm ok with it. Like the 'intelligence' of this over T9, but the scroll left and right (on screen) button is a bit too 'small' and near the edge for ease of scrolling. If that can be fixed, it will be even more perfect.
no good for elf
when i set in french language they a are no letters on keypad
thank you
Anyone manage to 'perfect' this beta version?
While it is useable, without the symbol can pose some inconvenience when you need the symbols.
It works fine on my touch. To get the symbols in blue you press and hold the key. It takes a little getting used to so you don't end up with .. but it does work.
For those getting blank screens, this should only happen when you bring up the keypad without selecting a text field. Meaning if you are in a selected text box the keys should display.
Another bug I found was if you install this keypad and then choose another one that you have installed (pocketCM, HTK, etc), it will not display any text. It's like you are typing in white. The cursor advances, but no text displays. I had to un-install this keypad to get my other input methods to work.
It may sound a little obsesive, but I timed myself using this new touch dual keypad and my pocketCM skin (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1597831&postcount=21) and every time I was able to type faster and more accurate with the pocketCM version. It was close (1:11 vs 1:08) for a couple sentances. I'm glad to see HTC putting a real finger operational keyboard on the Touch, but for now I will stick with pocketCM.
works on the mogul, install, soft reset...

Nah man, that's a great idea. I think a "type-off" of sorts is a good way to determine what's best; although everyone has difference preferences, I think 90% of us subconsciously type the same.
any status on a new version that works a little better?
thx.

working on Hermes!
Its working fine on my Hermes WM6. Still get the blank buttons when trying to use it outside an application. But within application (e.g. Onecontact, IE ect..) all working fine. Even symbol key is working fine.
Its a great keyboard (esp. the T9 version)...First keyboard where the buttons are large and responsive (iv used sooo many now!).
btw...dont forget to softreset after installation before use!
No symbols
I get all the characters and numbers but the symbols are all blank. I am in the UK. Otherwise it's okay. I personally don't like PocketCM because unless there is lots of free memory it just pops up the default keyboard for me.
is there any way to turn the xt9 off i used the keypad for 5 mins adn when i switched to the normal keyboard the xt9 was still there.. can it be turned off?
^^yeah I found that incredibly annoying, I LOVE this keyboard but I had to uninstall it because the T9 would be there even when using the hardware keyboard!
Can anyone post any pics of this keyboard?
Yeah...T9 still there on hardware keyboard is really annoying!
ok. I know I saw someone mention on this forum that there is a cab you can install for a larger on-screen keyboard. I've been searching the forums, but can not find this cab. I hate typing with my stylus, and with tf2d installed I rarely flip open my phone anymore (landscape is still not fully supported).
anyone know where I can get a hold of the large on-screen keyboard? An attachment or a forum link would be ideal.
thanks again!!! =)
I'd definately be interested in this too...

thanks so much for the help! I reviewed all of these keyboard and decided that I like the HTC touch keyboard the best..... Only problem is. I install the cab, and it does NOTHING! It still has the same old crappy on-screen keyboard! (stylus required)
I am using ttran's OTP 7 (tf2d manila)
I am uploading the cab now, so anyone else who has time.... test this and let me know if I am the only one with this problem... and if you know a solution please post.
Thanks again!

You have to touch & hold the little arrow by the keyboard to select the new one. You'll have to do this every time you reset your phone, but the attached cab will fix that. Just install it & you'll see it in your programs list. This will allow you to set the default keyboard so it doesn't reset each time you power up your phone.
Hi!
I received a Touch HD few days ago and from the first time I noticed that something doesn’t works properly.
Initially the keyboard by default was the QWERTY one. I changed it to probe the compact one. I did the change with no problems (obviously was not a difficult issue). Well not so obviously because the problem was when I tried to return to full QWERTY keyboard.
I selected the fullQWERTY in the configuration menu, I pushed the OK button but when I tried to write a new message the compact keyboard was still there. I tried to change to any other keyboard but the result was the same. I haven’t installed any keyboard so is not a software incompatibility issue.
I reset the phone, check for rom updates, etc but I cannot select QWERTY keyboard. I have search about this but the only information I found is a post in this forum with no answer.
Please, any information about a possible solution will be greatly appreciated. Just imagine a wonderful HD without its QWERTY keyboard…
Thank you very much.
I have the same issue. A full reset did fix it but then it randomly happened again. Obviously that's not ideal!
Any ideas anyone?
Might it be worth an email to htc?
You checked for ROM updates using? I'm sure there is some registry key but not really certain.
Regards,
Carty..
I have encounter the same issue. I have found out that if you go through setting and select keyboard to change..it will not work...
It seems that touchflo took over the registry.....
Now the correct way to change your keyboard is to
1. press your keypad up.
2. you should see this little arrow beside the your keypad icon
3. when you tap the arrow you will see this menu pop up to pick the keyboard layout.
This is the ONLY WAY to change the keypad
Hope this helps

Hello everyone!
Just a quick question. I have had to start a new thread as no one seems to be answering on the other threads.
I have the HTC touch HD. Now i got a registry editor last night solely to see if i could change the scanning frequencies that it uses to see if i could get it to lock onto a particular usa 3g band.
However in the process i see that when im typing a message now the keyboard (The HTC full qwerty one) now doesnt show the menu with the numbers running along the top and the most common symbols when i press the abc key to enter just numbers or symbols. I now have to press and hold the relative key so that they little grey version can be used.
This is frustrating me as i love this keyboard and i want it the way it was. restoring the registry has had no effect.
Any assistance rendered would be really useful.
Many thanks
Thats what you get for messing with registry
Only thing i can think of is a Hard Reset.
I am not sure how you made the "number" input keyboard missing with the Regedit. But as far as I know if you've installed one of the HTC hotfixes namely BLAS00369 Office Mobile Enhancement, it will make the number input keyboard missing. Once installed that hotfix you will no longer be able to fix the problem except a HARD reset. As my advice goes, do NOT install that particular hotfix upon your re-installation then you are OK. Let me know if this solves your problem.
have you tried installing another keyboard and switching back and forth to see if that helps?
*UPDATE*
Thanks for the help all. yes i had used the hotfix and i then saw that my problem was the exact same one that other users had experienced. upon navigating to the correct threads i saw the relevant solutions. I installed the suggested keyboards and removed them. then it all started working again. Stupid hotfix....
thanks very much
Hi, does anyone know where i can get a "phone" keyboard from? im having to use the stylus all the time now as my fingers arnt the smallest but on my wifes phone (HTC MAGIC) she can have a keypad where its like [ABC] [DEF] [GHI] .. If you get what i mean ? like 3 letters on one key but the keys quite large, hard to explain and im currently running a custom rom if that helps.
Jack
