keyboard issues - Galaxy S I9000 General

anyone else have issues with duplicate characters while typing on the keyboard.. it needs better customization so that when it sees a duplicate of the same letter within a userdefineable time (in ms) it ignores it...

XT9 Autocomplete

Does anyone know how to change the default autocomplete selection for XT9? I use the default MS keyboard SIP, but when I enter an "a", it defaults to "ã" every time. If I select the "a" shown, it sometimes remembers this, and sometimes not. I NEVER want to use an "ã" character when I press "a".
There are other problems with the autocomplete, for example when I enter the following characters,
"This is a test"
I get, "This Is ã test". Why did it capitalize the I in "is". And of course there's the ã problem.
I am using English, yet getting non-English characters? Does anyone knwo how to correct these issues?
I noticed the same problem. That or it would just try to spell out a word totally different from that which I have typed. I just disabled auto-complete and the problems temporarily solved but there in the background. Hopefully there's a fix for this.
Also, since disabling auto-complete, I am now using PCM Keyboard. This seems to have helped with the auto-complete turned on as well but still getting some serious typos thanks to it.
I think the "spelled a completely wrong word" issue is the "spell check" of XT9. I don't have a problem with that so much as the casing. It almost randomly capitalizes the first letter of random words. I type them properly, hit space, and boom, it gives me something else. That accented ã is extremely annoying though. Does anyone know of a way to edit/replace the dictionary? In reality I'd like it to offer the standard WM autocomplete words (from the classic suggestion popup), but using the new interface.

Text entry deleting previous word

Hi everyone.
I've searched the forum for a while but I can't find any mention of this problem, so...
When I'm typing in text (in my Niki, but should apply to all Touch Keyboard-using devices) using non-XT9 mode and the Touch Keyboard, the word I'm typing is automatically selected as I type. This means that when I hit space at the end of the word, the whole word is replaced with a space. Kinda useless, huh.
I've dug through the input options and none of them appear to fix this issue. Why does the phone do this and is there any way to stop it?
I have the same problem while writing on the screen. The solution is typing slower (at least remember to wait a few miliseconds before pressing "space" key). and voilá!
I got fed of it and started typing with the physical keyboard with xt9 on

help - spacebar issue in htc messaging

when i type a message in htc messaging the keyboard seems very slow at picking up spacebar presses, and misses them out, so it adds the next word to the end, then adds a space at the end. very annoying.

rom is fine, for me apart from the space bar, so would rather avoid flashign a new one.
is there a reg tweak or something i can do to enable the phone to register quicker presses? the keyboard works fine on webpages / email ect.
possibly to do with the words it displays as your typing, (is it spell correction, or word correction?) is there a way to remove these from displaying to see if that allows for the messages to write correctly.
I have a issue pretty much the same, spacebar shows its pressed but doesn't always make a space in a message...
anyone else noticed this, or know of a fix?

Possible keyboard bug?

Over the last few days i've had what appears to be a keyboard input bug occur twice.
The first time it happened was in messaging and the second time in the browser.
What happens is I end up with a couple of characters in the text that cant be edited or deleted. They can't be selected and if I try and delete them it just deletes the characters behind. The only way to get around it is to exit input field and start again.
Has anyone had anything similar? By the way i'm using Swype if that makes a difference?

Issue with swyping keyboards

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.
