I decided to try out 8pen, but I can't seem to change the dhd keyboard off of stock ? Yes I've been the settings and ticked the box, I'm missing something.
Go to a textfield, such as write a message, then hide the keyboard, touch the text field for a couple of seconds, then select your preferred keyboard.
Thanks such a noob

Hi guys, i just installed a trial for Lingvsoft English>Farsi dictionary and the first thing i noticed was my keyboard had changed to something more stylus friend but not finger friendly.
I didn't take much notice to it thinking it was only for that program but noticed it was on every screen from SMS to Notes.
Even going to Settings>Input and changing Keyboard types doesn't work. It is on a setting called "Keyboard" and everytime i drop the menu and choose Full Qwerty and press Ok, it doesn't save and keeps the same setting over and over.
I have even uninstalled the program and soft resetted but it hasn't fixed it up.
I want to get back the original keyboard, please help me out.
try selecting something completely different, like block recogniser or transcriber or something and the restart the device. If it sticks choose try the compact qwerty and then restart. If that sticks too goto full qwert. If none of this works then it sounds like your qwerty has been replaced and you might need a hard-reset.
I couldn't change mine from the keyboard options under settings, it kept reverting back.
When you are in an sms press the little arrow next to the keyboard icon at the bottom of the screen and change it there, it worked for me.

Legend! Thanks that fixed it
Fixed my problem too.
I also had the issue that the keyboard was only inputting numbers - disabled T9 in HD Tweaks - reset then all ok.

how can I go in "HD Tweaks" ?
My touch HD keyboard setting seems to be locked on the default keyboard option.
I enter settings, input, change it, to anything else, click okay, reenter and its back to the blue keyboard. I have touchpal installed which i really want to use.
Thing is i got it to stick to touchpal before but its reverted to this again?
I had SKtools and set touchpal to default, but still this problem.
Any way i can stop this. I hate that stupid blue keyboard.
you pick your keyboard by clicking the triangle beside the keyboard sign when you are inputing text/letter. not from setting
Hi all,
Probably a simple thing I'm overlooking but when using skyfire with the HD and you need to input something in a text box i.e. username/password, how do you do it? Don't know if it's supposed to, but my soft keyboard does not pop up when I select the text box to input something so I have no way of inputting anything. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Ho'okani
Press the keybord key low in the middle and it will pop up
Thanks but that keyboard icon doesn't always appear when I click in a form field. What do you do if it doesn't appear?
Thanks,
Ho'okani

instead of keyboard icon apears a loading bar.
Have you tried using HDTweak. Should be an option for Keyboard automatic display popup

The same thing is happening for me. Is there a version for touch screen phones that i need to d/l. I have a HTC Diamond, and the keyboard never pops up. I cannot type any url in, and cannot find anything in the settings. Any help would be appreciated.
I've read that Skyfire doesn't support flash based text boxes so I'm thinking that is my issue.

I just tap again on input field...
i dont know what happened, but it seems that after i installed some apps my keyboard is now equipped with japanese text as an option...and its quite annoying because when i switch back and forth between letters and #s instead of just english letters and #s, theres english letters, jap, and then #s.
anyone know how i can turn this off?
i tried the keyboard setting but there's no "turn off" option.
there's a turn off under "choose key type" in the japanese keyboard settings but that doesn't do squat.
any inputs will be appreciated.
ok this might seem strange but what you need to do first is go to locale and text and change your locale to something random it doesn't matter. when you do that it changes the keyboard to that language and automatically goes back to the standard keyboard (you can check to see yourself) now switch the locale to your original country and it should be back to the standard keyboard. I'm not sure if you use the standard keyboard or android keyboard but if it is the latter and you don't know how to switch, just long press the text bar which is the lowest left key and select input method. For some odd reason you can't simply long press the text bar to switch back from Japanese which is a WEIRD ass glitch
i actualy didnt know about the android keyboard until now
whats the difference?
edit: nvm got it. thanks! i think i like the android keyboard better.

Quickest way to change keyboard is to touch and hold on a text area
till the pop-up appears, then click on Input Method then select either the android or the Standard keyboard. The differences ain't so much... the best way to find out which you prefer is to try them. If you want to revert back just repeat the above stages.
Personally I use the Japanese keyboard.. but that's because I'm using it to write in Japanese.
Good luck.

works fine on mine... I just check it
(text area is the white box where text would normally appear, if you would type something)
BTW, if you switch the keyboard to Japanese, denoted by the "あ" symbol the caps-lock will now show a hammer & spanner. Clicking on it will also bring up the input menu. Alternatively you can go about the long way around and go directly into settings either by the menu key at the home screen; or via the applications tray. Think that's all the methods...

what he said. the japanese keyboard is AWESOME.
what sucks is that the japanese keyboard is included with any locale settings right ? but i type in japanese AND chinese so if i have to type a sms in chinese, i have to go to locale and switch to china. SUCKS !
My girlfriend has an Aria, and recently tried to install a new keyboard. We went into the keyboard settings and checked the new keyboard, but whenever the new keyboard comes up, it's the stock HTC one. Has anyone else experienced this?
You have to long press in a text box then choose input method you can then choose the new keyboard there

yes, although you enabled the new keyboard, you didn't choose it as your default keyboard.
open something where you can type (text message, note, browser address bar, whatever). press in the text area and hold your finger there until a box pops up. this box should have your keyboard options, select whichever you would like to use.
I am still trying to figure out how to get a keyboard with voice options so i can talk into it

The stock Aria keyboard has a microphone icon on the bottom left. Press it and it will enable voice recognition.
Note: only works whilst connected to the internet.
If you can get your hands on a copy of the newest swype that
has the option for audio input as well. Not sure if the beta is still open or not.
