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

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...

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...

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.

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.

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...
touch keyboard
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 there - pls try and see if your Xperia does the same....
When I`m using the software keyboard with the stylus I can sometimes press several times til a letter comes...

probably due to any kind of 3rd party software installed on the phone, i do got the same problems, but it went a way after a hardresett, and came back after installing some software can't find of witch one it was, sorry
Now I use Touch-IT_Blackstone_Keyboard ...very good
i use the Touchpal Keyboard now, in my eyes much better then the HTC Toch HD Keyboard , you can find it here
http://www.cootek.com/
it is amazing how fast you can write with it after an short time
regards cHarOn
I`m getting only little letters and it seems pretty complicated ....what must I do in order to can type with it ?
It strated with WVGA and then qwertz etc. ...
By the way:
On the hardware keyboard there is down left a key with aÜ but if it push it nothing happens ????
press u and then the key and you will get it

on which Touchpal?
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.
I got my X10 2 days ago. Previously i was using iPhone. Everybody know iPhone user interface is simply awesome. I like X10 as well. the issue currently i am facing is that when i type my messages some times i missed the letter and i have to press the letter again. specially letter 'a'. I am using android keyboard. Is this issue is because of keyboard or it's software issue. i know touch is perfect because i can see zoom in image of the letter. I also tried to disable sound, vibrate, dictionary etc. but no luck so far.
though in landscape it works fine.
Can anybody guide me how can i solve this issue?
Thanks,
I had the same problem with both the Android and standard keyboards.
The only way I fixed it was to install the HTC Keyboard. Works fantastic and it has a calibration tool so you can make it even more accurate than it already is.
Search for HTC X10 keyboard on google, I think there is a tutorial on esato or se-nse.
I'm afraid that this has become old news when it comes to the x10.
At the moment I can only suggest a workaround or two.
I have installed the HTC keyboard which I find very accurate. It can also be customized to allow the volume controls to control the cursor whilst typing.
Personally I find this to be the best solution.
Better keyboard is a paid app that can be downloaded from the market and offers another good solution.
I have heard in posts that swipe keyboard is another good alternative.
Finally I have heard that upgrading to the latest firmware available may help things. I debranded and upgraded to 1.6 but I still used the HTC as its familiar.
Another option is the Smart Keyboard Pro
yo try the app called shape writer. Its simply amazing, u will love it
HTC keyboard.. easy & free
Smart Keyborad PRO & Swype are also good options
actually the true problem to this is the sluggishness of the touchscreen which you'll experience in most other applications as well. the only solution is to type slower since no matter which keyboard you try you will always experience some random unset delay after each key before it actually registers on the screen. that by itself will hinder your ability to type fast and will introduce additional typos.
If you use SlideIT keyboard then you won't have any problems with sluggishness. ( which I've not experienced anyway). Its not as attractive add swype, but I find it much more accurate.

using SlideIT keyboard.
You can have landscape size buttons in portrait with 'Big Buttons' keyboard from the market, it takes a chunk of screen but your typing will be perfect
Thanks a lot, i just trid "big buttons", love it, the best one for people like me who are not very handy with their fingers

make sure you correctly enable the htc_ime mod keyboard from the list of keyboards in the input method options.
to bring up the input method option, when your vr keyboard is visible, long press any area where you input text and select htc ime mod.
If the htc keyboard is not available from that list, go to settings, locale and text and tick htc keyboard.

It does not matter if you type slow. it's some other issue i can't figure out the reason maybe SE know it well. you can saw a issue which can't be replicated
I guess the problems of typing are related also to the protective screen

i don't think so. because other keyboards are working fine. the problem is with the firmware
I'm using shapewriter keyboard (free on the android market) ... perfect alternative to the swype keyboard & similar as well for those who arent able to get their hands on swype due to its limited beta release
Try ThickButton - it's pretty awesome - predicts what you want to type, and expands the size of appropriate keys, making the others smaller... You can also select how much they'll expand by (esp if you have really fat fingers, or type with your toes.)
hi hope someone can help me.

android doesn't have such a problem. if you encounter this problem in all different roms then your touchscreen may have problem.

And/Or try cleaning your screen. yes, simple as that
