Strange keyboard problem ! - Touch HD General

I've had my HD for over a month now and i would like to say that Im very impressed with it.
However it has developed a small problem, when inputting text using the compact qwerty keyboard it is no longer selecting letters, just numbers. All the other keyboards seam to be working fine. I've uninstalled all the programs / games that I've added but it doesn't want to come back to life. Has anyone got any suggestions?

Had da same problem, asked da same question. ^^
Ya got HD Tweak, and enabled T9? And if ya uninstalled, ya try restartin ya phone? (Soft-resetting)... A learned alla dis ba asking da same question as ya, bredda.
Lol, I've played too much GTA IV... ^^

Thanks for the quick reply.
i've tryed soft resetting and got rid of HD tweak no luck!!
Can you think of anything else or do you think a hard reset is my only option?

I had the same problem when I installed HD Tweak, it started happening.
I disabled the T9 only in HD Tweak, Shut down the phone, start it again and it went back to normal. No tricky stuff. At least it worked for me.

Hi
Only had my HD a day and managed to cause a problem!
I have installed a few apps inc HDTWEAK which may have caused the problem, have tried what is listed here with no success. I have reset T9 and also tried changing Keyboard settings via Settings.
EDIT Just noticed (I also installed Gyrator) it is OK in Landscape mode.
The only keyboard I can get has 2 letters for each i.e. QU/ER/TY etc.
Regards
Alan

Got mine a month, and this problem started today, while I am operating as usual (noit installing any program these days anymore). Very strange! ROM 1.14.xxx

Thanks Guys
I've been struggling with this for a couple of weeks.....Deselect t9 in HD tweak then soft reset just worked....

As I was only a day in I did a hard reset.
I think the problem is with Gyrator. Resetting T9 in Tweaks did not resolve it.
I have reinstalled Tweak but not Gyrator (as yet)
Thanks
Alan

Yes that's it, HD Tweak, desactivate T9 solved this problem I did not understand.
Thanks for this Post!
(I have not installed Gyrator, so it is not linked to it)

This started today and really threw me.
Only had my HD for 3 days and haven't had a chance to really delve into matters much, so I was flummoxed.
Thanks flogger for posting the solution.
Oh, while I think about it, has anyone informed the developer of HD Tweak that this is an issue?

Jesus christ, that made my brain hurt reading that
same prob i had, but on all keyboards, (except full qwerty) so un enabled t9 on hd tweak and soft reset, works fine

Alpha Keys do not work in Qwerty mode
I'm just responding to many others who are experiencing the same problem regarding the inability to bring up the alpha keys in QWERTY mode.
Yes, I have TweakHD installed, and I disabled T9 (as many others suggested), and everything worked perfectly.
I just want to say that I didn't even need to soft reset. The moment I changed the entry in TweakHD and exited the program, the problem was solved.
Good luck to those who still have the problem.

How To Write Sms Without Pen

A friend told me there is a program to see big letters on the screen so that I don't need to use pen to write sms. Can someone help me? As you can see I'm not pc expert
search for phonepad
it does it t9Style
Install an other keyboard like Resco Pro
Yup,
HTC Phone Pad works well! I've had it on my SPV since first upgrading WM5 (now on WM6) and it works fine as a T9 keypad emulator.
Its on this site... Somewhere!
;-)
Was going to upload it, but for some reason i can't so here is a link to a thread that seems to have it
Dark PhonePad
ive been using SPB Keyboard.....can anyone on here recommend another piece of software that is better?
I use PCM Keyboard http://www.pocketcm.com/keyboard.php
It's free and the layout is totaly configurable.
TouchPal by CooTek is by far the best, try the others but you will come back to this one.
I have attached the free version from before it went pro. If you like this try out the demo of version 3 from the website and buy it!!
Help me !
I´ve WM5 from Vodafone and none keyboard of this thread works i can choose it, but nothing happens

I have found if you install more than one of these on your device then you can't switch between them.
Try uninstalling all the SIP's that you have added, soft resetting in between each and one more S/R just to be sure.
Then install just one SIP and another S/R and it should work.
If you still have trouble chuck something like SIPChange and set your preferred SIP before S/R.
I have been through many SIPs and have had the issue of most of them not being chooseable, well choose but have nothing happen. The only one i have found that is selectable is the TouchPal by Cootek.

lucky you...just tried that one, and im having the same problem as everyone else..ie...i can select it, but nothing happens.
i had the same problem with my phone
The only way i could fix it was to change my rom. now i can install as many different ones as i like.
have been trying the tengo keyboard as it splits the keyboard into 6 buttons so i can have the smallest keyboard (smaller than the normal wm one) and still use it with me fingers/nails

i had this problem. ended up hard resetting didnt know hd tweaks was issue...
Thanx, i also had this problem with my full qwerty.
I am very pleased i didnt have to reset my phone...
Merry Xmass everyone
Thanks bouya_k - This affected me with my HD too, and is resolved after disabling T9 via Tweak HD and soft resetting. Much appreciated.
The whole T9 HD tweaks... I cant find it, therefore, cant uninstall it... I did look in the options for the keyboard and found T9... I unchecked everything, no dice.

Not getting on very well with keyboard - HTC HD2

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.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=604831
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

Landscape keyboard problem

Hello I have experienced some problem with keyboard during sms writing in landscape mode of keyboard. The space key sometimes cannot be pushed even if I put my finger exactly on this key.
Anyone to solve it? Thanks
Sent from my HTC Wildfire
Same here but its the backspace that is not working.
Problem fixes itself when you turn the phone or close keyboard.
Already mailed HTC i hope you do the same
Problems with backspace I have too but the most annoying is the broken spacebar.. Another problem is that during sms writing sometimes does not work optical joystick... It must be some problem with sms application because in the portrait mode this not happen..
I know that it can be solved by close and open the keyboard but I am really pissed off when this happen...
Sent from my HTC Wildfire
Never had the spacebar problem before.
but indeed it can be very annoying.
Hope their is a fix for this soon !
I have these problems too: with backspace and optical joystick.
Could be useful if I mail HTC too?
Yes, why not ? The more the better.
I recieved an answer they say i have to calibrate the keyboard again.
But this has not solved my problem....
I calibrated the keybord many times and the problem with spacebar occured within calibration... This is weird...
Sent from my HTC Wildfire
Now they tell me to do a asoft reset first
and if that doesn't work a hard reset...
EDIT:
No fix for me
do you use qwerty or azerty ?
They told me the same... I think that will not help... I am using qwerty version.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire
Solution
Hello everyone If u all are facing so many problems that were not rectified for some reason try touchpal .. Go to market find touchpal Install it and dont forget to use the update feature in the app before you start using it.. coz its the older version on the market...
OR
Direct download ::::: COOTEK TOUCHPAL::::aul O'Brien States to turn off Chinese after install (I hv no idea why coz i m not using it and can not test it till after tomorrow) but do it he is one expert .
Also check out this DEMO VIDEO
I have exactly the same problem with my Wildfire. I hope HTC will fix this issue...
Dido
About time I see that everyone has the same problem as me, Alltel thinks I am crazy. I just got my phone about 30 days ago and I took it back and got a new Wildfire because I could hardly ever use the backspace. It drove me insane. I am so glad to know that it is just a glitch in the phone. I really hope they fix it.

Freeze loading screen

Ohai cookers!
I have a problems here. I've completely flash the EVO 2 ROM perfectly on my Opal. I can use all the function nicely. However, after I install the ezInput, and restart my Opal, the smart mobility loading screen freeze at that point.
Any clues bout this probs?
Thanks.
hi eXodes,
i had the same problem like you. I performed a hard reset.
For performing a hard reset: Press talk, end and power at the same time
This is a known bug with the Evo 2 ROM. DO NOT install ezInput on this ROM. Wait for Evo Ultimate or install another ROM.
In the meantime, a hard reset is your only option here. Try Finger Keyboard, it works well with Evo2 and offers a good substitute for the default keyboard.
Good luck..
I can get it right now. Yeah. Its bugged. D: Oh well. Thanks guys. I really hopes Evo Ultimate doesn't highly abused the icon and stuff. XD
Hard reset
Here's a link to a page that explains hard reset as well as soft reset of the Viva

Just a quick check? do you use EVO 2 or EVO 2.5. cause i had that problem with 2.5 but it works fine on EVO 2, and i also suggest you give Swype a shot its nice
