How To Write Sms Without Pen

A friend told me there is a program to see big letters on the screen so that I don't need to use pen to write sms. Can someone help me? As you can see I'm not pc expert

search for phonepad
it does it t9Style

Install an other keyboard like Resco Pro

Yup,
HTC Phone Pad works well! I've had it on my SPV since first upgrading WM5 (now on WM6) and it works fine as a T9 keypad emulator.
Its on this site... Somewhere!
;-)

Was going to upload it, but for some reason i can't so here is a link to a thread that seems to have it
Dark PhonePad

ive been using SPB Keyboard.....can anyone on here recommend another piece of software that is better?

I use PCM Keyboard http://www.pocketcm.com/keyboard.php
It's free and the layout is totaly configurable.

TouchPal by CooTek is by far the best, try the others but you will come back to this one.
I have attached the free version from before it went pro. If you like this try out the demo of version 3 from the website and buy it!!

Help me !

I have found if you install more than one of these on your device then you can't switch between them.
Try uninstalling all the SIP's that you have added, soft resetting in between each and one more S/R just to be sure.
Then install just one SIP and another S/R and it should work.
If you still have trouble chuck something like SIPChange and set your preferred SIP before S/R.

I have been through many SIPs and have had the issue of most of them not being chooseable, well choose but have nothing happen. The only one i have found that is selectable is the TouchPal by Cootek.

lucky you...just tried that one, and im having the same problem as everyone else..ie...i can select it, but nothing happens.

i had the same problem with my phone
The only way i could fix it was to change my rom. now i can install as many different ones as i like.
have been trying the tengo keyboard as it splits the keyboard into 6 buttons so i can have the smallest keyboard (smaller than the normal wm one) and still use it with me fingers/nails

Diamond virtual keyboard on the x1?

Hey guys,
I tried installing a virtual keyboard like the one in the htc diamond from here ->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=392197&highlight=Gullum+Keyboard
But, it seems to be only for qvga. Any suggestions of where I can get one that might work on the xperia?

theres the ez input on x1.modaco.com that works fine

Hello,
ez Input works on my german xperia but i am not able to use now the special character like äöü.
Have anybody a link for a german version with the character and a german version for the T9 ?
thanks in advance
Daniel

same goes for me

On the keyboard is a button options, there you can chose the language.

Take Touchpad it is in my eyes the best one

Did you install any keybord app, or anything prior to this happening?
sounds like an issue of keybord no being able to find the dictionary.

more like a case of installing a keyboard app that overrides the DLL registry that points to the DLL that provide such key functions.

i have the same issue.
dont know if it ever worked.
but i did install the blackstone VKeyboad.
could this be the problem?

Yes it could. I've tried to find a usable keypad to use for onehanded sms but each time I installed one, I lost my easy access to my special letters (æøå). I have a english version bought in Norway.

Thanks, but i wasn't looking for a qwerty-keyboard. I was looking for a simple phone-keypad for use in portrait for quick sms. Whenever I found one and installed I lost my letters.

Uninstall Touch HD keyboard
Hi,
Had the exact same problem with my danish bought (english version) x1, but i uninstalled the touch HD keyboard, restarted X1, and it was back to normal. Its caused by an overwrite of the original keyboard dll. Explained in detail in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=447989&page=2
I hope someone is able to figure out a way for us to keep our au-key functionality in combination with the Touch HD keyboard, as it would be nice to have a one handed option.
regards

is it posible to copy the .dll
then install the hd keyboard.
then place the copy's .dll back
???

this won't work.
first of all, the DLL, is defined in the registry (I could have mispelled the registry path because this is off my memory)
ImeFile in \hklm\system\currentcontrolset\controlpanel\layouts\e0010409 (or a locale based on your ROM language)
So the default value of the registry is "Compime.dll"
when you install the HD keyboard CAB, it's the registry that gets overwritten ("T9ime.dll"), not the file. So keeping a copy of the DLL and recopy wouldn't help, since practically no files has been replaced except the registry.
You can retain the ascent key, etc though by reverting the registry to "CompIme.dll" after the HD cab installation. However, doing so is at the expense of HTC HD's own implementation of word completion and T9 function (so it renders T9 phone pad and compact qwerty SIP useless)

so if i would like to use the compact keypad of the HD without the T9 and word completion.
then i could change this and i would have this keypad and the au key funtioning?

well my raphael keyboard should not (i'm not sure as my x1 is at repair) but other stated this. and there is a keypad for portrait and sms with t9 support in it, and if im not wrong the hardware keyboard should have autocomplete in it. and as aplus the letters are bigger than the touch hd's

I have just installed the Touch Pro peypad-package, and it works very fine.. But again - I can not use the danish letters..
Is it not possible to get such a keypad-package and still be able to use special letters..? That would be really great..

in system, settings, input, advanced choose danish layout, then T9 should be right.
au key, let me work on it, seems like making a cab for x1 special letter should be worked on.

dude, we talking about the ascent key, not the symbol key... I don't have problem with symbol key if I installed the Touchstone QWERTY keyboard SIP.
I don't think you can fix this problem (it's a side effect of trying to install another device's keyboard IME) but I would be more than happy to eat humble pie and be proven wrong

How to change the keyboard?

I don't know if this is an Arc issue or a Gingerbread issue... But I really prefer using Smartkeyboard Pro, but I see no way to enable it. Even though it's checked in the Settings screen, I can't actually replace the stock keyboard.
Any tips?

long press on the area where your text is and you should be able to select your keyboard.

D'oh! Thanks. I'm too used to the way I did it before - long press on the "1 2 3" key.

Haven't tried that, but Swype doesn't work for me. Tells me that it was not made for this device and that it has limited functionality. Limited meaning it behaves just like the default input and not a Swype input.

Swype signed an exclusivity agreement with samsung or motorola, some nonsense like that. You can use an alternative tools, like nuance flext9:

i replaced my keyboard with the smart keyboard pro and it works a charm was also really happy that I could change its skin to a black keyboard. excellant quality

Swype works if I install the full package (10mb) rather than just English/Spanish.
