Hi guys had my phone awhile now its exy model from hong kong the keyboard has a default of Chinese IME input.
Ive downloaded swiftkey app and find it really user friendly I.e less mistakes when I type.
Its not that a notification comes about every time I need to input on a keyboard that bothers me but ive tried to disable every IME option reset it and its greyed out as a unselectable option.
With only swift key board selected this notification still apears ?
Ive gone into the IME apps and forced stopped the Chinese ime app but simply clicking into the google search on the home page cause the input notification again?
Anyone has the same issues?

I've installed Swype and really like it. I'm using SIPchange to enable it as a default. Unfortunately, XT9 will interfere with the words selected by Swype even after you've picked the right word. The only way to disable this is to manually change to Touch Input keyboard and disable XT9 on the keyboard before changing back to Swype.
I've already disabled both Spell Correction and Word Completion in Touch Input under Settings> Personal> Input> Touch Input> Options, but XT9 still turns on the next time I restart the phone.
Hi, I'm using swype too and haven't noticed any interference from XT9, but I might not have known what I'm looking for.
What are your symptoms?
I have had that happen to me before on certain Roms... cant tell you which one... usually, it works fine (I am using Topix Rom now)
When it did happen, I turned off XT9 under the settings but I ALSO opened the default keyboard and turned it off there but pressing the key.... moved back to swype after that and the xt9 word options were gone... just the usual swype dictionary/options at times.... Soft reset didn't change anything... it was all ok still
Hope this helps
Unfortunately for me, once I shutdown/soft reset the phone, XT9 is automatically activated on the Touch Input keyboard again even though everything has already been turned off in the Settings>Personal>Input. Also, it seems that the Touch Input keyboard automatically defaults to one of the Chinese input methods instead of English. Maybe that's where the problem lies. Where can I default the Touch Input keyboard to English?
BTW, I have my Locale set as Australia, so that isn't the problem.
The symptoms are: Once you've "Swyped" the word and pick the one you want, XT9 then shows up with it's word choices and either shows the same word or if I have it initial caps, make it all small letters
I also noticed that in Settings>Personal>Input, when I select Swype then click the "OK" button, it doesn't save the selection, and goes back to "Touch Input" when I open the "Input" dialogue again. I guess this probably means that some of my registry entries are toast...
That is indeed weird... do you have something like SIP change installed? I use that to start Swype by default during startup after a restart.. Don't know if that might help...
Yes, I do have SIPchange installed, but it's already set to Swype as the default.
I had the same problem and this is my partial solution.
Go to HKLM/Softwares/Tegic/eT9/IsSupportMSSIPContact
Change the Dword from 1 to 0.
this will get rid of XT9 for Swype but only if it is NOT the default. Therefore, there is the nagging inconvenience of having to change it to Swype every time your soft reset. But it is better than that nothing.
Thanks for the partial solution. It's at least better than what I'm doing now after every reboot, which is to:
1. change Swype to Touch Input
2. change Touch Input to EN so that the keyboard shows up
3. click on the XT9/ABC button
4. change Touch Input back to Swype..
One thing to note, I just went to the registry and there isn't the value you listed. However, there is the following string value:
HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9\LRU_MS_InputMethod and the value is Swype.
I'm wondering if this is what is causing XT9 to activate when Swype is active.. Do you have this value in your registry? what value is it?
Quick edit to note that I added a DWORD IsSupportMSSIPContact with value "0" and soft reset... Sorry to say that it didn't disable XT9 even if Touch Input was defaulted. Guess my problem is slightly different than yours.
Yes, all those values are the same. Need ot check if you also disable xt9 using some .cab. If not then you will need to do the following:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e0010409\Ime File
Change it to read as compime.dll
and
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e0010409\Layout Text
Change to COMP IME
This will disable eT9. Please remember the original values should you want to revert back.
I think that should work.
have fun.
weenween, the two registry values you gave are already what is on my phone..
But XT9 still enables itself when I restart the phone. I've now resigned myself to disabling XT9 on the Touch Input keyboard manually each time I restart the phone.
In any case, thanks for your help.
I have exactly the same problem adn symptoms as GregWee. Must be becasue we both have Hong Kong HD2s where the default english keyboard is PinYin?
I have a similar issue. I have a TMOUS HD2 with QQ 2010 mobile loaded on it for chinese text entry. The QQ keypad has become the default everytime I reboot - entirely unwanted. Somehow it interferes with the contact dropdown list in messaging and email. It has something to do with the T9 staying on when entering a contact name. I installed sipchange but it does not overide the QQ default after a soft reset.
After changing between keyboards a few time it begins to work properly in email and then finally in messages. Right now, since the last soft reboot and playing around, when I am in either email or messages the stock keyboard will automatically switch from T9 to abc when I move the cursor to enter a contact name. The contacts appear as I type as they should. Swype works fine too. I have no idea what I did to get it to work but I have had the same experience several times today. Hopefully I will figure it out.
I would like to know a way to override the QQ as the default keyboard. I think this might fix the problem.
Any suggestions?
Hello guys, I have a problem with my Wildfire.
Recently I don't know what happened, my keyboard changed from the normal keyboard to the Vietnamese IME keyboard after uninstalling Swype (it didn't work).
How can I get my normal keyboard back?
Help is much appreciated. Thanks.

Not sure for Swiftkey, but for Swype you have to activate it in Settings > Language & Keyboard. Then go to any text input box and touch and hold an empty space in the text input box and let go. You should get an Input Method pop up. Choose Swype.
swiftkey works fine on mine. Need to go into language&keyboard, tick the checkbox, download the language pack, then within messages hold the input field and select input method.
I've got swype working on my dhd, couldn't work without it now. These are apks on the net. The expired ones won't work.

It seems there is a serious incompatibility with keyboards in general (I'm rooted on 1.1 with touchnooter and oc kernel), where the word suggestions bar does not display (in any keyboard). breaking support for 9 key input or chinese IME along with many other input methods. Only keyboards that automatically choose the first result in word suggestions can have auto correct, and even then there is no way to choose between words. What is keeping the word suggestions box from displaying in any keyboard (I have tried about 10 keyboard input methods so far all with the same problem)?
The problem is, normally there is a bar where you type the romanization and it gives you a list of options to click for the correct spelling/characters. That bar is missing from every keyboard app I have installed with spelling correction or chinese character typing.
Does this have anything to do with the nook firmware, or the system folder installation method? What is the proper way to install a keyboard (step by step) and can ANYBODY confirm or get a working keyboard? (EDIT: I'm positive I installed correctly and installing different ways makes no difference on suggestions bar support)
If a dev can please help us out, maybe try installing sougou android pad as it has english config menus. Basically, if you type a word like "xiang" it should give you a list of characters to select between, such as 想，象，向 etc. If it doesn't display the list of characters then obviously you can't type in chinese (not legibly anyway). Imagine chinese input like 9 key input, if you don't have the ability to select the best guess, half of what you type will be gibberish. Well, the bar used to display those guesses are missing in every keyboard I've installed on the nook.
Additional info:
I have tried installing:
Sougou input (tablet)
Sougou phone input method
Baidu
Smart Keyboard plus chinese
smart keyboard plus english
All have the same problem where they do not fetch different spelling options or character options. They are missing that popup selection or bar completely. This also makes it so 9 key keyboards won't work obviously which depend on guessing and allowing you to select the correct 'guess'.
Please help, this may be due to the keyboard support in nook firmware, or it may be a simple setting or missing file that which can be corrected somehow. If you have this problem or have any ideas or suggestions please share your experience! If you have a working suggestion bar (NOT just auto correct) please share how you got it as well. With googling, although hard to find I have seem some reports of this problem appearing on other devices /custom roms as well, so it might not just be nook simple touch specific but a problem with the rom! Thanks!
To avoid any confusion, text prediction, word dictionaries, etc. all work, it doesn't seem to be a problem with the keyboard application, and it applies to every keyboard running on the nook. It's the actual suggestions bar that is not visible on any keyboard. Unfortunately this means that unless the first prediction/suggestion is what you want, you're screwed. Obviously this makes 9 key impossible, as well as typing in languages, especially Chinese. Before someone asks, it doesn't matter if you set the suggestions to be visible or not, no keyboard, regardless of settings, is capable of displaying a word, spelling, or character suggestions bar on my NST until this bug can be fixed.
I posted some images of this problem here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=35976521&postcount=2
When want to write messages & on samsung keyboard, swipe the space bar to change language keyboard input, it won't change the
language. As on samsung keyboard settings, input languages, as there is 2 languages on it.
However on keyboards and input methods, the samsung keyboard tick is grayed out.
There is just only Samsung Keyboard & Google voice typing.
When I did factory reset, it did work. But later when adding some apps,
later it won't work of changing languages..
What's the problem?
