How to turn off "I" capitalization

Hello,
Simple question - is there a way to turn off capitalization of "I" letter? I'm using UK rom, but I dont want the "I" to capitalize automatically. Turning off the first letter in sentence capitalization doesn't help. Any hints?

I don't know how to fully correct this behavior...
But you can tap the "backspace/del" key to remove the capitalization!!
hth,
Stuart

Thanks for the tip, that makes it easier, still it would be best to be able to just turn it off.

Maybe this is what you're looking for?;
Settings> (Personal Tab)>
Input > (Word Completion Tab)>
Uncheck "Enable Auto Correct"

Physical Keyboard ?

When I use the Physical Keyboard it randomly inserts periods. I'm running the latest build of Cyanogen but it's been doing it on older donut builds...thoughts?

It's meant to add a space when you press the space bar twice. Go to Settings > Locale and text > Device keyboard and uncheck auto-punctuate.
If it's not that then it could be an issue with the HTC IME activating when it's not meant to.

Can Anyone Get Swype To Work?

I installed it from http://droidmuff.in/downloads/swype-preview/ and i unchecked the android keyboard and checked swype, but its still using the stok keyboard.

Yes...now that you've done that, you need to go somewhere where there is a text input box and long press on it until a menu comes up. Click "input method" and select "swype", then it willow work. It keeps popping up resolution error messages, but it does work.

What happened to my lockscreen?

I was adjusting my e-mail settings when the phone frooze. Had to remove battery to restart.
But after that I got stuck with this lockscreen.
Softreset didden't work. Tryed to switch between windows standard and windows classic lockscreen but nothing.
How do I get "The Slider" back?
(I have no lockscreen mods installed)

Go to the settings tab, Menu, All Settings, Lock and go to the Display tab. Make sure you've got Windows Default selected, not Windows Classic. Click OK and it'll ask you to restard. You should now have the lockscreen you want back.
Hope this helps
Edit:
Sorry - I just noticed your device isn't in English. I hope you can translate my instruction on your device okay.

Sorry, I guess "Standard Windows" is Swedish for "Default Windows" so i have already tryed that.
I have also tryed it with HTC sense off but still no change.
Still in need of help!

Okay - sorry mate. That's me done then.

Thank's for trying!
So what do you think, will a hard reset do the trick?

I reckon that would do it, yeah, but it seems overkill doesn't it. I'd hang fire for now and see if anyone on here comes up with a better solution. At least the phone is locking! It could be worse.

when i sekect lock from all settings, theres only setting password and hint. nothing else. my lockscreen wont automatic lock wen my screen is off.

I found that after a soft reset my Lock screen would not appear after the phone had gone to sleep (or I'd turned the screen off manually).
I solve it by .......
After a soft re-set or having turned the phone off;
go to Start
press 'Lock' at the bottom left of the screen
The lock screen now appears and then acts normally - until the next soft reset when I simply repeat the above

Nop!
Allready tryed that, still the grey lockscreen...

Lost Screen lock
Here is the one simple solution that works for me:
When I installed some cab. files I have lost the screen lock.
Longpress the end/power button. this will bring out options to power off, Lock device, set vibrate...
Simply press "Lock device".
Now you have a screen lock that keeps working.

Well I've tryed that but It will still use that grey thing...
//Johan

Some people don't really read that well, do they?

argh
i have to always manually set the lock device. it wont automatically do it.
i recently installed pocketshield and that messed it up so i dont think everyone deleted properly?
should i use SKTools or a software to delete unused registries? or is it cab files?

YEEEES!
I figured somehow the default windows lockscreen file must have got corrupted...?
So I installed this cab:

found in this tread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=618989
As a last attempt before a hard reset. And thank god it did the trick!
Thank you all for your help, without this forum my HTC would have ended up in the bin the day after I bought it!

still didnt work. just still acting the same.

i have the same problem after i have installed puremind's 1cab4all_20shcutsv1.3No.Net3.5.
i tried the above suggestion but didnt work, i have to put the lock device to make it work, but i dont want to enter the password everytime to go to homescreen.
Anyone have the same problem?

1. This happens a few times on my HD2, make sure you have BSB Tweak installed. There is an AutoLock switch on there. Make sure that is set to On (which it will be default).
2. Then on the odd occasion when the device does not lock, hold the power button to get the Quick List and click Lock Device, now it will be ok - till the next time it happens (mine usually after a few days in which case repeat step 2).

[Q] greek keyboard change

I have both Greek and English selected on my Note 3 but I can't switch between the two at all. Swiping the spacebar does nothing and there's no globe button. The only way I can use the Greek keyboard is if Greek is the only input language selected. Then to switch back to English, I'll have to uncheck Greek and check English again. If both are selected, only English is shown on my keyboard..... I can't find a way to switch between them. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I had the same situation and the reason was the greenify when you enable it says something about notification settings change and then the space bar switch between the two language dissappear! If you remove the greenify and reboot then everything is OK. I hope I helped you....

Can't think of anything else than reflash your ROM with no wipes.

What firmware are you on? Are you rooted?
Here is how the Samsung keyboard looks for me inside the Samsung SMS app on firmware MJ7 (4.3) + the hack to enable extended symbols. In the Samsung keyboard there seems to no longer be an option to switch languages when you swipe over space (and I also use swiping as input method) but you can see a small button in the bottom-left (just to the right of the SYM key) and when you short-press on that I switch languages. The "swipe over space" option is still present in other keyboards and might be even a hidden option for the Samsung keyboard (but you might need root).

The only other idea that I have is to long-press on space. And eventually on the button that is two places left from space - after a long-press you might get to see a list and the button like a globe is the one that switches between languages.
Also check what other version you have on English and Greek after the > sign in settings - that part is not present in my firmware so extra settings might be there.
Also the language availability might depend on the app itself - so also do a test in the Samsung default SMS app.
