I have found a little unconvenient thing on Android. Do you like to use virtual keyboard? I hate it. I'm blind writer on my laptop qwerty keyboard but the flat screen kb is minus 10 years.
The situation worst when you have to type words twice or more. Especially when you are searching something but you mess up one caracter.

In the search history you can see your previous (messed up) word but there is no possibility to edit them because when you click on it, your browser start to search it again.
On a desktop browser you can modify anithing in the borwser (or search) history list. Android should have this feature as well.
My theory solution is:
When you press and hold your tap on the search history item, the string moves to the search bar and you are able to modify it. And a simple click just search it just before.
Am I the only one who miss this?
I agree, I have this problem on market. Even if there is what you want on the search history with a small mistake or 2 words with no space, you cant edit it. Its realy annoing.

Hi,
I'm trying to remap my left softkey to the phone application.
What path do I need to find the Phone application? I can't find it.
Just te be clear:
I'd like my left soft key on the today screen to link to this app:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Where can I find the right path?
Errrm...why do you want a softkey link to the Phone? just pressing the dial button will start it...
anyway, Phone is somewhere in the Windows directory if I remember correctly(I recall seeing it there once...).

Old habits I guess, I want a Phone button on my screen.
I can't find one in the Windows directory (latest PDAViet rom).
I just fixed it by linking to
\Windows\Start Menu\Phone.lnk
That's a way to have it work too...
Hi, i've been the owner of a windows mobile phone for only a short while now, but one thing i noticed is the querty keyboard.
Now the point is, i have realy big fingers ( ) so i cannot hit all keys well enough.
Recently my girlfriends sister got a new phone which has a default(see the pic) numeric type keyboard but on touchscreen.
What i was wondering, is there anything like it for windows mobile?
I am running windows mobile 6.1 by the way
Seems im not yet allowed to use images or links in my posts, just remove the space between h & ttp

I posted about this forever ago in the Rhodium forum. Never got an answer or any replies, no +1's, nothing.....
Now we have a couple hd2's and so i bring it to leo forum attention:
is a way to cut down the space in the typing area. See screen shot. Any ideas how to edit this?

Looking at your screen pic, you are pressing return/enter key after you type each word. (key near bottom right).
Yeah no kidding. That was to show my point. Take out all those words and the typing space remains as big as it is there in that screen shot. Its like they set the typing space to 5 or 6 lines before it expands, when it should be set to 1 typing line and expand as needed.
If I remember right, the tilt2 or the fuze this was a reverse problem, meaning there werent enough lines, and someone found that I think it was in the .css file there was a setting to change to make the box bigger, maybe its the same setting. I dont have the time right now, but I'll look later, but do a search in google for htc sms box enlarge setting, if you have trouble finding it, I'll see later and post a link.
Here is the Novel that is Samsung Focus.

Thanks for posting this. I was looking through it and discovered how to only show existing contacts with facebook integration. It is under settings, applications, people, then you will see the option.

Yes! Thanks for the link and the post.
Thanks, I've added it to the wiki
If you have the "en" on your on-screen keyboard

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
and want to remove it.
Go to
Settings -> Keyboard -> Keyboard Languages -> Remove check marks from everything except one language. (e.g. Check "English Only")
Definitely enjoyed the extra spacebar room, and did not get tired of accidentally turning my keyboard into French mode. Dunno how it is for AT&T customers, but if you'd like to add the "EN" button and the ability to change languages on the fly just do what I said in reverse (Check more than one language)
Is there a better keyboard that I can keep from 1.6 to 2.1 ?
I've had an HTC and a Samsung and both let me select the old stand by 3x4 keyboard with predictive text.
I'm looking for that.
Ok I found a fix.
I wish I could take screen captures so this is the best I can do.

I used this package, created here on XDA by member http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=2150306
I DL'd the RAR file
Unpacked it
I only used HTC_IME_hi.apk file and disregarded the clicker_APK
Bluetoothed it to my 2.1 X10A
Checked " unknown sources" under Applications/Settings
Astro walked me thru the rest in 3 seconds, Then installation took 4 seconds.
I know have the 3x4 phone pad keyboard I prefer.
Enjoy.
Oh predictive text is a billion times better as the suggested words are bubbles that you can click, there is also a "Check mark" in that row that will expand to all suggested words with "Add a word" button right there for you to use.
TOTAL WIN.
You must be able to install 3rd party apps as this is NOT available on the market.
