I recently installed Resco Keyboard Pro, however decided I prefered the compact qwerty so uninstalled Resco Keyboard.
After uninstalling I can no longer choose the A-Z list I can only input numbers and symbols, this happens in all keyboards.
Could I unknowingly changed some setting?

I am able to switch between the standard sip's (keyboard, transcriber, block recogniser, phone pad etc.) however i have tried to instal a Greek keyboard (both from Lingvosoft and Interkey) if i try and select this keyboard to enter text the input method just switches back to the standard keyboard. (it does not display the greek keyboard at all).
I am using molski 2.26.10.2 if that helps.

installed a Chinese input method. Sometimes cannot switch to that sip; sometimes, if already switched, cannot switch back to others.
Strange problem: I've search google and here at xda, but find nothing even close.
Discovered the answer in the event others experience this strange situation: Download "sipchange" (google). It nailed this perfectly.
The keyboard defaulted to compact mode about a week after I received the phone. I hard reset (ROM version 1.14.405.3) and did not install any applications, anticipating perhaps a program conflict was my problem. After two days is did the same thing.
The only thing I've tried is changing input methos in the settings node. After I choose full QWERTY (or any other keyboard selection) and select OK, the settings default on compact.
Anyone know the registry setting to force the keyboard to full QWERTY? Maybe this is a known issue....
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT: Still no joy - I installed Touchpal 3.5, however the in input selection for Touchpal 3.5 will not take either.
Edit: Cleared ROM - flashed firmware. This defaults to full QWERTY. I then installed Touchpal 3.5, but my HD would not change to the touchpal keyboard after selecting options and rebooting.
Might this may be a hardware/keyboard mapping problem?
Yes, I have issues with this too.
I use two particular input methods: Block recognizer (I'm an ex-Palm user) and SBP Keyboard. I have to select which to use, using the input selection pop-up menu, which appears next to the keyboard icon under the keyboard.
Problem is I want to customise that menu as the default options (Touch input settings, Phone Keypad, Compact QWERTY, full QWERTY and other input methods>) only leave room for one other option.
Any ideas ?
Many thanks.
Till now I've been using the HD2's standard HTC keyboard as SIP, as I haven't found anything I was really satisfied with.
Until yesterday I installed Resco Keyboard Pro 6 Beta, which is just fantastic (read about it elsewhere in the forum). Perfect for HD2.
But now, I've discovered that a number of my apps changes the SIP back to standard HTC when I open them. Resco's option to make its keyboard the default SIP does work. After soft-reset, it's still the default SIP in most programs.
So I tried installing Fingerkeyboard, SPB Keyboard, etc, just to make sure it wasn't Resco's fault (as it's a beta version anyway...). The same happened with all the other 3rd party keyboards.
Is there anyway to prevent apps from changing the SIP? It's driving me crazy, have to manually switch back to Resco everytime I open those stupid apps (which I depend on at work ) Thank you in advance.
Use XDA google search and look for a programme/cab file called sipchange.
Install it then select the keyboard type you want as your default; problem solved.

Not that simple, I'm afraid. My problem is not how to set Resco as the default keyboard after SR. Get that already with Resco's own inbuilt option. Then I tried using both SIPChange and default_IM_WM5.cab. It still happens, some of my apps changes the keyboard back to standard when executed (and it is not about setting the delay in SIPChange, I'm talking about after all the processes during SR).
That's strange. Never had this problem with Sipchange installed.
You are certain that you have set your preferred default keyboard via the sipchange utility? That's how you get the keyboard you want to boot up after a SR.
If yes then not sure what else to suggest.

Hi, I am having the same problem. One example of such software is Lingvosoft, when you hit search key, the keyboard pop opens, but with default keyboard, even after using sipchange.
I was thinking maybe there's a way to disable the standard HTC keyboards all together through the reg. But that's asking for trouble/hard-reset
What to do...
I think the problem is that using SIPChange, DefaultIM.cab, nueSIPdefault, etc, none of these really changes the value of "defaultim" at controlpanel\sip. It remains with the standard keyboard's CLSID.
I'm really tempted to change this value to Resco's, but reading around here in this forum shows a lot of people having big trouble afterwards messing with this value (mainly because they used the wrong CLSID?) and required a hard-reset...
I have a persistent reoccurring problem with the software keyboards.
After a soft reboot, everything works fine for the first two or three days. From then on, the SIP icon will not present a keyboard. This is true regardless of which default keyboard has been used. This suggests the fault is not with any particular keyboard.
I use the following keyboards:
- HTC Full keyboard.
- Swype.
- TouchPal.
- Resco Keyboard.
When this problem occurs, all other functions of the phone continue to work perfectly (albeit I can't input any data). Thus, my only recourse is to perform a soft reboot - which solves the problem for a few days.
I have a Telstra HD2 with native ROM. I use the native Sense UI. I have a moderate amount of popular third party apps installed.
Question:
1) Does anyone else have this problem?
2) Is there any permanent remedy for this problem?
3) If not, is there another temporary fix other than soft reboot (ie: changing a setting in the Registery - but without needing use of the keyboard. This could be running a *.REG file to restore some value).
4) What could possibly be causing the SIP to be non-functional?
... any help or direction would be appreciated.
I believe I found the fault.
Resco Keyboard Pro, version 5, with Fitaly Skin. The skin was downloaded from Resco's website. It "seems" to be fine, but was found the cause an eventual disfunctioning of the SIP after a few days on two different smart phones: HTC TPro2 and HTC HD2. I suspect there is a memory leak on some type of registers (stack). Only after continual use of that keyboard does the SIP eventually fail to show the keyboard anymore. This does not happen with my other keyboards.
Remedy: don't use Resco Keyboard with at least the Fitaly skin.
Case closed.

What is the "SIP Icon" that you refer to in your original post? In the European Version of HD2 the SIP function is disabled and we need to intall external programmes for SIP/VOIP. Is your SIP original function (which is an integral part of WM) enabled?

SIP/VOIP is different is for phone calls.
SIP/Keyboard is "software input program"; SIP is the little keyboard icon that allows you to open the keyboard, or select a different keyboard.
This issue affects swype-style input on keyboards with this capability. It affects only certain apps - the most useful ones, unfortunately. Does anybody else experience this?
The exact misbehavior depends on the app and the keyboard.
Overleaf.com in Firefox or Chrome browser with Swype keyboard: cursor jumps randomly, autospacing does not work. Space key can also move the cursor to the beginning of the word just entered, and mess up the input entirely, or delete all the previously entered text. SwiftKey swiping enters nothing. Space deletes input on LG keyboard and GBoard.
Quoda text editor and Termux: Swype keyboard doesn't autospace. LG keyboard and SwiftKey won't swype at all. If I put spaces in manually with Swype, there are random weirdnesses like inputting the last word over and over; not reliably reproducible.
So Swype is overall unusable in these apps, and none other that I tried fare better (including GBoard). Non-swyping keyboards seem to work fine (I tried the Hacker keyboard), but I need the speed of swyping.
Other apps work fine, including 920 text editor and MS Word.
This issue is NOT the same as reported in this thread.
