Moving through text one character at a time

hi,
i have searched xda and google to no avail, is there a way of moving through text ( in a SMS) one character at a time as you would if you had navigation/direction buttons?
thanks

If you buy Smart Keyboard Pro, it allows you to enable direction keys to do just that.

The latest HTC keyboard allows you to enable the volume controls as a cursor. It is also free!

jep, just use the htc keyboard.
there you have directional pad's to move the curserkey's

thanks,
I currently use HTC_ime (it's an older version), going to update to version 25 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5475283), hopefully this will do the trick
cheers

The Japanese keyboard already on the phone has arrows on the English alphabet keyboard, for the weak of heart when it comes to installing things.

[Q] Sgs task manager bug?

Hi everyone, i'm just wondering if anyone had problem with the task manager when the media player and another app is running. When i want to end the other app that is running, it switch to the media player and ends this one. And i apologize for my english grammar, it's not my mother tongue.

nope, you are right, i've noticed the same bug too
everytime i click on the top item i want to close
it closes another one instead
but if you do it the opposite way from bottom up, then it works fine
it's a sensi touch error on that app
no need to recalibrate your screen

Hehe good to know i'm not the only one having the problem

Genius button slow reaction time ?

Am I the only one with this issue ? After I press the genius button the app pops up but it takes a while until it starts listening...and with this phone I expect little to no lagg...

I have the same problem.

Mine became much quicker when I deleted its app data. However lag crept back in.

mine seems to lag, with a message says loading contacts. I feel that should be a background load instead of stopping the app temporarily

I would think it would only load contacts once..but. mine did it a few times in a row and sometimes not at all......
So I wonder what's up with the genius button ?
Why does it lag on such great hArdware ?

I have the same issue. Takes about 15 seconds on mine ven overclocked to 1.3mhz

Turn load contacts to manual just remember to update when you add new contacts

Fine. But the lag is present even before the contact database update begins.

After hitting the genius button I have about a one second delay before it says listening. Which is not really a big deal

Yeah, it happens to all of us. It's annoying, too, because the Genius Button is almost always wrong in understanding voice commands. When using the stock Google Voice Actions, I have a margin of error of like 10%. Using Dragon's engine, I'm accidentally calling phones 75% of the time. :/
I wish they'd just give us the option to toggle between Genius / normal Search.

If you do the Re-Map genius button mod you can.
Just LONG PRESS to use normal voice search.

Firstly, 2 confirm if ur phone's vibration (hardware) still works...
Does it vibrate when u use d keyboard in WinMo or Android?

You have to activate both vibrations.
sms:
sms->settings->vibration: always (default is none)
phone:
mhhh, can't remember...find it yourself in settings.
=)

It does not vibrate when I use the keyboard for texting etc (and yes, I have enabled all vibrate settings)

also it doesn't vibrate when you boot?
if not then i think your hardware is broken

Just lyk XthelordinatorX says, if it doesn't vibrate when u boot up then its highly likely ur hardware's shot...Send it off 2 repairs.

Thanks for all the help

Physical Keyboard .com and www. buttons post Mimicry 1.50

Since installing this ROM (which I am loving btw), my physical keyboard's button for c o m/w w w is functioning like an Enter button when you press it. Any way to change or customize this?
Thanks!

I have the same issue.

Same its part of the keymapping, it didn't bother me much. The dev for mimcry is really active just post and let him know if he doesnt already.

That's really interesting and something I didn't notice. Mine isn't acting as an Enter but instead as a Space (1.5.0)

Did you guys install the Enhanced Keymaps (read the OP) in Aroma? If so, that key gets mapped to TAB, rather than www/com. Enhanced Keymaps also maps a bunch of other things to unused keys on the keyboard so read up on it.

If you don't want Enhanced Keymaps, re-flash the rom and select the menu item to modify tweaks/mods and de-select it.

This fixed my issue thanks! Didn't realize what the Enhanced Keymap feature did in that respect. Thanks again for the awesome rom, can't wait for JB
