I installed this keyboard on my tilt with win 6.1, and it messed up the predictive text, I uninstalled it but parts of it remained including XT9 function. I searched through the files on the phone and removed everything I could find, still XT9 is interfering with the hardware keyboard. Is there any way to fix this short of a hard reset??
any help appreciated,

Hi Guys,
after playing for about a week with the touch diamond keyboard on my mogul I've come to the conclusion of being the best SIP touch keyboard i've ever used BUT (here is the good part)
*"DO NOT INSTALL IT ON YOUR MOGUL UNLESS YOU WANT YOUR CONTACT PREDICTION TO GO AWAY WHILE WRITING A MESSAGE OR EMAIL, SUPER SLOW INPUT WHILE WRITING AND ALSO IT TOOK 9 MINUTES TO UNINSTALL."*
with that being said it is up to you if you want to give it a try.

Other issues are that some are not able to uninstall unless they hard reset, issues arise with your physical keyboard.
These are not issues that arised on the 6800, but rather most devices out in the market. It has been stated in the thread with the leaked attached software that the software is very buggy and doesn't have proper testing.
Install at your own risk. I personally rather use the HTC Touch Keyboard and Keypad which is almost identical except for the skin.

Does this break the autocomplete feature for the slide out keyboard on sms/mms contacts too or just for the SIP keyboard?
Carlos, do you have a cab to upload for that HTC Touch keyboard? Cannot find by searching XDA.

Sweet, perfect. My cab directory on the server is stocked! \
edit: this cab breaks autocomplete too, huh?
any workaround? That is a rather good feature.

auto complete only seems to work when you use xt9.
but other then that idk if there would be a way to be enable it.
I installed it and used it for a while... i must say its a great keyboard for a touchscreen... but then i realized the main reason why i got the mogul vs the touch, THE HARDWARE KEYBOARD!
This completely screwed up the autocomplete in emails and sms, text predictions and SIP options, even when using the hardware keyboard.
Uninstalling was a nightmare... so I did a hard reset and went on with my happy mogul...
I still think its a great software keyboard, but for a devise that its designed to... not the mogul
The Diamond keyboard seems to work on my Telus P4000 running DCD3.0.4 with the only bug being that when you press a key the icon for the selected key is really big but this goes away as soon as you life your finger so it isn't a big deal. Autocomplete seems to work for me but I never used it much so I may not be testing what others say is not working. If I create a new SMS and start typing in someone's name using any of the Diamond keyboards (since there are 3) or the hardware keyboard the name comes up before I finish typing so I don't think there's any issue with that.
The Touch keyboard is almost the same you say? I may have to try that one...

Aledc78:
Just for clarification, the keyboard you had so much trouble with prediction and uninstalling was the Touch, or was it the Diamond? I'd really like to give the touch one a shot. My large fingers are WAY too big to even consider using the default WM6 keyboard, its a joke. I can't give up prediction though, and as a general rule I steer clear of anything that is a "nightmare" to uninstall.

I managed to uninstall Diamond keyboard. I used SK Tools to uninstall and voila...it got uninstalled
Stay away
Yeah, this keyboard is really a pile of crap. It broke all my auto complete, and it also broke the ability to page down by pressing the space bar in a browser. And mine wouldn't install at all, it sat there for over 30 minutes doing nothing, I had to hard reset to get rid of it.
Seriously, if you want a device without a keyboard, just buy a touch. A physicial keyboard is better than any soft ketboard anyway
I found the latest version of the CooTek TouchPal keyboard with the Diamond theme works a lot better on the Mogul than the Diamond Keyboard. It's not free though.
CoolTek
Still, compared to the Diamond ported keyboard, CoolTek sucks.
I'm surprised that the problem with inputting contacts and having them autocomplete via the Hardware Keyboard is still broken. The hardware keyboard is generally preferred, but the Diamond port is amazing in small spaces / one handed typing.
anyone know of a fix?
Hi everyone, I've been playing around with the Xperia for a while now and was previously using the Touch Pro. Just wondering, is there any autocorrect feature to correct slight typing mistakes like what's done on the Touch Pro? That's something I really miss espcially since I find myself making more mistakes with the Xperia's keyboard.
there is autocorrect feature in x1i. i did try it in sms, msn & note, etc. of course it only deals with some minor mistakes like "thsi" or something like this.
Hi
Yep, there is under settings.-->personal-->input You'll have to tell it to suggest after xx or a space (mine was set to suggest after a space).
Also, this all gets messed up if you install the touch HD keyboard (elsewhere on this forum). The touch HD KB appears to have its own built in auto-correct/complete, installing it disables the autocomplete for the hardware keyboard. Uninstalling it fixes this (uninstall takes 5 mins plus).
Nigel
Thanks Cool2046, you're right about the keyboard autocorrect, it only corrects really minor mistakes and isnt as robust as the Touch Pro.
And thanks to Veltron for the warning about the Touch HD keyboard cab. Guess that's something I better avoid, sure didn't enjoy the long installation process that came with the TouchFlo3D port.
The auto correct is really not very good at least with teh engilsh I use wehn tpynig wtih a tniy keboard...
Hi, word completion does not seem to be working on any of our HTC P6500 devices, I was looking around and trying to get hold of some T9 files that appeared to be missing, but was told by HTC that this device doesnt use T9, it uses 'Word Completion' instead. That didnt really help as it still doesnt work! ROM upgrade not an option at the moment. Any ideas??
Thanks
I am using FingerKeyb-2.0-WVGA.cab for my HTC Touch Diamond2.
This keyboard is looking good and able to type without many mistakes and even with fingers without the help ot stylus.
But I am facing some issue with it.
1. After some time, the keyboard pop up is not coming up. I have checked with many application like, SMS, email, other input text field and it's not coming up and I need to do the Soft reset everytime to correct it. anyone facing this problem?
2. Landscape is not supporting.
Am i using any older version? Any newer version is out to fix the above teo issues. Do anyone is having good keyboard funcation other than swype, touchpal and fingerkeyboard. However, I like the swype (but need more words needs to added to dictionary), fingerkeyboard (but need to fix my above 2 issues).
pls post your queries in fingerkeyboard related thread.
Hey all,
Have had my HD2 for about 1 week now. I do love the phone, but am not liking the keyboard at this moment in time. I am forever making spelling mistakes, and keep hitting the wrong keys. Before any of you say, NO, I ain't got fat fingers!
Any of you not keen on the keyboard, and have you come across any better keyboard apps? Besides the SPB keyboard, as I ain't prepared to pay nearly £12 for that app!
Cheers
take a look at this. it helped me alot.

or use another keyboard like swype or slideit. I had the same issue, it was like the keyboard couldn't handle my typing speed, there were always letters missing. but since I use slideit it is a real joy to write texts.
Keypad
I used phone keypad on hd, with t9, not bad. But My bud got me to try swype? WOW!!! Have to give it fair chance, watch video on tricks to use it, it is the best, I hear slideit is great too!
Vnkeyb with hanoiwap skin for english
I tried many many keyboards (stock, swype, slideit, SPB, Vito ...).
Settled on Vnkeyb (freeware) with hanoiwap skin for english .
Give it a try and increase the pressure time to 800 ms. It also has CTRL key (cut paste etc).
Downloaded it here at xdadev.
EDIT: I have now discovered and switched to FingerKeyboard which has the same features and much more + 2 xda support groups.
Try the sensitivity tweaks first of all - they help a lot.
If you still dont like - try Fingerboard 2.1 or Swype and SlideIt.
Tried using swype, but it changed my passcode, so I was unable to lock my handset. Had to HARD RESET. Luckily I backed my phone up via SPB backup a few hours previous prior to my ROM upgrade! Phew...

that is a known issue with swype, and it was mentioned here many times.
I prefer SlideIt because it has a german dictionary, unlike swype which I can't find one for
