Keyboard stuck on symbols view problem - Touch HD General

Its happened a couple of times now where when im using the touchflo full qwerty keyboard its stuck on the symbols view and i cant change it anywhere to go back to the letters view. it happend once on the stock rom and now on duttys 1.5rom as well. i have fixed it by leaving it overnight with the battery out in case anyone still has this problem (60 secs with the battery out didnt seem to work) but im looking to prevent this from happening again so was hoping someone in the community knew of any fixes etc
cheers

If it's the same problem, disabling T9 in the options in HD Tweak seems to work for a few people. Worked for me.

Touchscreen occasionally stops working

Hi,
i have an intermittant problem that is getting more and more annoying...
The touchscreen stops working in normal mode (i.e. keyboard not out) but still works when I slide the keyboard out. If I slide the keyboard back in, the touchscreen stops working again!
Has anyone come across this? Is there a microswitch somewhere that isn't being turned on or off or something relative to the keyboard position?
Any help appreciated,
Cheers,
Liamo
yes I'm having the same problem over here and I'm in the middle of a buiness trip. earlier it got so bad I had to hard reset my phone because soft resetting the phone to fix the problem stopped working. so I lost every number I had in the middle of an important trip, costing me money. I'm so pissed. I did nothing special. I have molski's aku 3.2 rom with my own tmobile mms/gprs settings extended rom installed. I had it overclocked to 240 (i thought that was the problem). I had magic button, battery status plugin, aim hacked, mxcalculator, win live messenger, yahoo go!, a couple of basic registry hacks, all installed. let me know if you had anything in common so we can narrow down this problem. this has never happened before even with overclocking so I'm very worried.
I'm having the opposite problem. When I start to slide mine open it stops working.
yea im having the exact problem, i tried opening the phone up and checking all the connections, but no luck.

Keyboard un-responsive

Anyone else noticed the keyboard on their hermes becomes un-responsive at times or is it just my rom? Im runnign WM5 T-mobile uk standard rom and have noticed on several occasions the keyboard stops working. This is fixed by a reset of the device but i was wondering if im alone in this issue?
Thats happened to me a couple times already. I just do a soft reset and its good to go.
Happened to me a few hours ago. Again, just a quick reset solved it. It is kinda annoying though...
I have noticed it too, normally when popping out the keyboard a few times when sending a few texts
soft re-set's work to fix sometimes i can fix without restarting by closing the program i was using and reloading it but doesn't work all the time
am on the T-mobile Stock rom, i wonder if its a ROM bug or Hardware problem ?
htc 8525 cingular us few diff roms.. I had that at least ones on every single rom I tried
ether wm5 or 6 both do that..
softreset works but wish there was fix for that ..
Mine does this sometimes but all I do is hit the COMM manager button on the side and X out of it and it works fine again.. Just some goofy bug I was hoping was fixed in WM6 but no dice

Keyboard not appearing

Hi,
Ive searched but cant find an answer or that it even happens to anyone else.
Recently reformatted my phone, running out of RAM to clean it up.
It now runs great except now after about 5-10 sms's being received when i go to reply, no keyboard appears. The symbol is below but normally when you tap to type, nothing happens.
This is for Swype, Touchpal and even the standard keyboard. This applies for sms's or anything that requires to type.
Only resolution for me at the moment is having to soft reset all the time then its good for a few more sms's.
Only occured since i reloaded everything after a hard reset but the phone runs great, only installed what i had previously so no new software.
Any ideas?
Guess im alone on this one. Well if anyone else ever has the same prob, i discovered it was Swype v3.9. Never had problems before but now ive hard reset the phone to clean things up, fresh install things, it is causing problems.
According to other forums, v3.9 is very buggy so reverted back to v2.0 from the Omnia and its working great.
I have same problem.
I have installed: Resco Keyboard, Swype, and TouchPal. I usually use Resco; I can have sessions since a soft boot using ONLY Resco, then eventually the keyboard will refuse to appear after tapping the icon. Thus, the problem was not triggered by either of the other two keyboard apps.
Like you, my only remedy has been to soft boot. This is usually good for a few days before the keyboard is forever hidden.
(Still no permanent solution ...)

Freezing in Landscape?

I was in the AT&T store earlier today hoping I could do a side by side comparison of the Captivate and the Aria but, of course, AT&T didnt have out the Captivate yet so I just spent time with the Aria.
I loved it. Very smooth and quick with everything. Comfortable keyboard for the size that it is.
One thing I noticed before I was done experimenting with the keyboard and texting is that when I was typing a message landscape, the words weren't showing up, but appeared when I turned to portrait...and then disappeared again when turned landscape.
It only happened at the end of the 15 or 20 mins I was playing with it...but is this a problem others are having with the phone or was the in-store phone just being defective?
That is a problem that i also use to experience, if i text in landscape mode at a fast pace it caused the app to force close. When it auto restarted i couldn't see the text i was typing in landscape mode but when switched to portrait mode the text would appear. I have since stopped texting in landscape mode since texting in portrait mode is just as fast as long as you hit the first letter of the word correctly.
I have not had the issue since flashing the liberated B003 rom though. Also I do not know if it was something running in the background causing this to crash before i flashed but for me the problem no longer exist.
But thats just one of the few problems you will discover with this phone

Thanks! Hopefully going to pick up a Captivate as long as it performs like I hope. Otherwise I will be joining all of you here in the Aria forums!
Kind of a dead thread but I'm bringing it back to ask...
How many of you have also experienced this problem with the phone? Is it a large majority?

Thank you. Hope some more people respond so that I can see how many people experience this problem so I can try to decide between this and the captivate
I spoke too soon, the issue is happening again, seems to happen after typing long texts.
I get the error "the application Touch Input (process com.htc.android.htcime) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." [Force close]
do you use the stock keyboard as opposed to swype, swiftkey, or the droidx?
stock keyboard.
That might be the silence then. You might want to see if the problem persists with a different keyboard. For landscape I suggest the droidx multitouch.

I too have the same issue - many times. Stock ROM, non rooted.
I'm going to mosey on over here for the Nexus forum to vouch this issue for my sister. She just got the Aria about 2 weeks ago and her keyboard freezes on her in landscape mode constantly. If she goes into Settings/Applications/Manage Applications/ and selects the keyboard then chooses 'Clear Data' it seems to bring it back up without her having to restart her phone. Another option I've found while scouring the internet has been that if you disable predictive text on the keyboard (Under Settings/Language and Keyboard/Touch Input/Text Input/Prediction) it seems to fix the issue... but you of course lose predictive text. Which, if you ask me, is a huge issue given the cramped keyboard on the Aria. I can't confirm if removing the predictive text option works yet or not, but if she lets me know, I'll be sure to let you folks know.
[edit]I should probably state that shes on Stock AT&T Rom with non-root and she plans to stay that way... unless I convince her to hand the phone to me for a few hours)[/edit]
I should also probably state that this issue does not occur using the swiftkey keyboard from the market. One could argue just using that instead, but I personally don't like swiftkey and frankly the default keyboard should work! Lol.
So far turning off predictive text has fixed it. My sister has gone all day without a freeze up. And it was occurring almost every time she texted.
Day 3 and her keyboard still hasn't froze since she turned off predictive text. I think the may be a solution. But now HTC needs to release a fix for this lol. Hopefully the aria gets a 2.2 update and this is resolved. Wishful thinking I guess.

Landscape keyboard

Is there a way to reload the keyboard after it force closes in landscape mode? Other than restarting the phone?
Is anyone else having this issue a lot?

Does this sound like your problem?

Just want to bring this up and see if anyone else ran into the problem.
I am using B003 and when I am in landscape typing, I get an error sometimes saying the keyboard had a problem. I can still type, but the text won't show up. But if I switch to portrait, then I can see the text I typed while in landscape and I can also type normally while in portrait (meaning I can see the text I type). But if I go back to landscape, again, I can type, but it won't show up in landscape and it will in portrait. This happened to me 4 times today. I think it fixed itself or I had to turn phone off and back on.

I was also interested in seeking if others were experiencing this problem. It happened to me a lot two days ago, didn't happen at all yesterday, and then happened once today. I have to turn off the phone for it to fix itself.
Are you on stock rom?

Yeah, I am on stock rom at the moment. It did it quite a few times on me last night, and it was a pain in the A!
I read a lot of posts where people are mentioning this issue. Personally I have not experienced any force closes on landscape or portrait mode while typing, however I do notice the keyboard can get very laggy at times when in landscape mode.

there are instances where it will force close, and you can see the auto correct type come up, and until you put a , or a . in the sentence and hit space, it will show up the text as well...
pain in the a!!!
It happened to me again and I think I might have isolated the problem. This keeps happeing to me when I type a long message in landscape. Usually when I think the 170 mark, it will crash on me.
Its not that isolated, seems to happen more ofter when you type long messages.

Here is another item I noticed today because I texted a lot today during work and it crashed on me multiple times. I do the Clear Data rather than reset the phone and each time, I noticed that the data is at 68 kb. Could this have something to do with it? Anyway to test and see if the 68 kb has anything to do with the crash?
