[Q] url highighting on focus problem - Android Software Development

Hi all,
I'm running Android 2.2 on my Galaxy S phone and recently I've noticed problem when trying to type new url in stock browser.
Following happens, when I have the browser in landscape mode and I press on the address bar then on the beginning whole old url string is highlighted but keyboard appears with some delay. When keyboard finally appears the selection is gone and the text cursor is placed at the end of old url, so I have to delete now whole old url to type new one.
In portrait mode there is no such problem, when I focus on the address bar the url is highlighted and as soon as I start typing old url is overwritten.
Have any of you ever encountered such problem?
cheers

is it possible to write a message without

is it possible to write a message on the qtek 9100 (wizard) without using the stylus. When i open the new message menu and input the number i can't move to writing with both cursors on keyboard or 5way joystick...when i press down on both it just moves the scrollbar but not the writing cursor...please help or tell me if it is the same with your wizards...thanks in advance!
if you're using the keyboard you can do it.
type in the number you want to send it to then push the "tab" key and it will move down into the message body.

no, this is not the way i tried it...does it happen with your wizard?
The tab key to change fields works perfectly on my wizard...
do you mean fields in the write new mesage menu does the tab change between recipient and text menus?
I'm not sure I understand what your asking...
Tab would take me from the to field to, say, the body field.
Is that what your asking? Are you trying to get tab to do something else? Like cycle through the contacts when you hit "Menu" -> "Add Reciepient"? That I do with the D-Pad...
when i write a new message i input the number and want to start writing the text. but when i hit the tab button it scrolls the scrollbar the same way the navi button does...it just moves the screen "down" but the cursor stays in the phone number field...
Try pressing Shift and then the down arrow on the keyboard.
I noticed this issue when I first got my Mini S however I also noticed that in later revisions of the ROM they have changed this behaviour so that tab, shift and the down arrow both move the cursor from the To field to the body field.
when i press "shift" and then "down" it happens the same as if i press just down or tab...it scrolls the scroll bar at the right...the tab changes the field i every other menu i repeat EVERY except the menu when you write sms...my rom is the latest on te qtek site 2.17.0001 os 2.17.7.2 is there any newer OFFICIAL rom?please tell me that also(;...please verify this thing in the write sms menu not in any menu with fields because the tab doesn't work only there...weird huh?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I hope I have the reason for not being able to jump from one field to the other without using stylus: it happens when you are using smooth scrolling in internet explorer by the help of a third party program i.e. like tweaks 2k2, spb pocket plus etc.
Try to look if you have somehow enabled smooth scrolling, disable it and make a soft reset. After that messaging without stylus should work again.
Hope it helps!
Kind regards

I had the same problem, and this is the solution for me!
You should change the settings in the following key:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Navigation\
open key "4-Way Nav" and set value=1
THANKS MAN! I appreciate that you wrote those words for me i hope it returns to you someday...cheers

3.1 keyboard different?

edit: checked and it only changes to another layout whenever i click on the address bar of the browser... wierd
On the address bar, colon is the secondary function on the / key, to the right of the spacebar.

[Q] Gingerbread SMS dictionary issues

Hello!
I have searched this and found little about it, so I'm gonna ask you about it.
I have LeeDroid HD running Android 2.3.3. I have 2 main issues regarding the sms app: the red dotted line that appears when using words not recognized by the phone (I write my messages in Romanian), and the fact that, when I tap a word in the message (say I typed a wrong character in the middle of it), instead of moving the cursor at that position and allowing me to edit freely, it moves it there, selects the entire word, and presents me options from an English dictionary to choose from as alternatives for the word. When I try to move the cursor back and forth, it navigates the suggestions, and the only way of getting out of them is to tap a white space, then navigating to the needed position with the arrow keys. All the options under Language and keyboard > Touch Input are unchecked (Spell correction, Prediction and Word completion). Am I doing anything wrong? Is it a way to bring back the behaviour of good old 2.2 sms app, or do I need to switch to a custom, less time consuming sms app?
Thank you!

[Q] Keyboard hides textfield

Guys
My wife bought one of these a couple of days ago.
When she logs onto facebook and tries to write a message the keyboard hides the text field and she cannot she what she is typing.
I've tried myself scorlling the web page in order to show the textfield at the bottom but the textfield won't scroll up above the keyboard.
Any way to fix this so she can see what she is tying?
Tried in both landscape and portrait mode and the webpage textfield will not scroll up above the keyboard to let her see what shes typing.
I've searched this forum with words 'keyboard' and 'textfield' and 'textfield hide' but can't find any info
Thanks

Samsung Keyboard double letters

I'm facing the following problem when I'm typing an URL address in Chrome address bar. The 1st letter is doubled!!! Sometimes, when I delete the second letter and I type another one, both letters are doubled!!!! for example:
I type "i" it becomes "ii"
I delete second "i" and type "n" it becomes "inin"
it's very frustrating and I wouldn't like to go to Google's keyboard nor turn of predictive text or something.
On on 4.4.2 FNB8
Any solution?
thanks
