Does ur space button click twice when pressed in the center?

Hi all,
I need some urgent feedback from you good folks as I have been given until tomorrow to decide whether to send back my T-Mobile MDA Vario.
On the slide out keyboard, if I press the space/sym button lightly in the center it clicks once and if i press slightly harder it clicks a second time...
Is this meant to happen? Does anybody elses do this?
Haris
PS. If I press the button on either side there is only one click

Mine makes a sound like it's clicking twice but actually only does one click.

Thanks for the prompt reply sunseaker!
When you say 'does' one click, do you mean in the software? So you only get 1 space in Word even though you're hearing/feeling 2 clicks?

Yeah,so do I.I feel it was twice.But actually,it's only one space appeared in word.

That's what's happening with me, you can feel two clicks in the center but one if you press on either side, just one is showing in word.
So all Wizard Keyboards behave like this? At first I thought it may be something like a two function button ie. light press for normal space harder press for something else.
I looked in the manual for some kind of explanation but there's no mention of it...
If they really are all like this (keep the feedback coming pls) don't people find it really annoying to feel a double click happening on a frequently used button when all the other buttons function normally? (ie. click once)

The reason you get two clicks is because there's two of those little contacts below the space key - the reason for that, in turn, is that the key is pretty wide. These two contacts are on the same 'paths', though, so there's no differentiating a spacebar press on the left from one on the right.
The reason you only get 1 space is because, normally, if you press in the center in such a way that you happen to 'click' both left and right, it will be in such a short interval that the repeat is ignored. Try pressing any other key, such as a letter key, really fast (so not 'click click', but rather 'c-click') twice - it will also only enter the letter once.
It's not too annoying for me, as I either press it on the left or on the right, depending on which thumb happens to be nearest the key

Cheers Ze!
I thought it might be something to do with 2 contacts under the space bar.
Since this is not a fault (design fault maybe ) I'm happy to aim my thumbs to the corners and will rest assured that I don't have a dodgy Vario
Thanks to all that replied - I can keep my new toy! :wink:

Is it possible to adjust screen size

I am a noob and this is my first post, so go easy on me. I have a mogul phone and one of the problems i have is trying to use my finger to press icons or words that are in the corners of the screen. For instance the X button, or the start button, or the (soft Key)? buttons at the bottom of the screen. And especially the Keyboard (SIP) icon. Is there anyway to "draw in the whole screen size" so it could pull these icons away from the corners and sides. I didnt have this issue withe the iphone as their screen is flush with the edges of the device so my finger could still hit on part of the icon.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
First as a noob, don't start a thread, direct your questions to:

Second, you should look at some of the more finger-friendly approaches. Manilla 2D is a very good one. Besides most of the task you mentioned can be achieved by using a hardware button.

Welcome, one of the first thing you are gonna hear from anyone here is do a search or rtfw (read the f****** wiki)
second of all like wearefree already stated just about all the function you are trying to do can be accoplished with a hardware button (which are much more accurate)
try manilla 2d for basic function but your phone is capable of doing just about anything you want to you just need to be able ask google the right questions

Feel of front buttons (especially double clicking)

I have a Touch Cruise and I'm seriously considering the Touch HD. I never use TouchFlo on my Cruise but instead I make heavy use of AE Button plus so I have quite a few double-press and even triple-press actions set on my buttons and I'm concerned about how well these would work on the HD.
From looking at the HD am I correct in assuming that there is no positive clicking action when one of the four front buttons is pressed? If so then does anyone use a button mapper to set double and triple press actions on some of the front buttons and, if so, then do you find it easy to do these actions when there is no tactile or audible feedback on a button press?

The HD gives a little vibration when one of these keys is pressed. It also does this with some other progs, i.e. clicking a link on Opera to give a tactile response. I quite like it.

Thanks for the feedback (pun intended). It sounds like one of those things that needs to be experienced so I think that the next time I'm in London I'll go and have a play with one.
I guess I'm still at least as concerned about how double clicking would feel now though since a small vibration is, in user interface terms, a reasonably long feedback action so I'm thinking that the user would need to make the second keypress of the "double click" while the vibration feedback from the first click is still tailing off. Then again (and I'm kind of thinking aloud here) maybe that is exactly what is wanted since this gives a user some idea of how to time their double click, i.e. if the user waits until the vibration from the first click has fully subsided before doing the second press then that is too long and will be taken as a two single clicks rather than a double click.
I'm now wondering whether, probably accidentally, HTC have actually created the perfect feedback mechanism for double-clicking.

Double Clicks are sensed as long click??

Dear all,
I just got my X1i. I find that the sensitivity of the screen is OK but when I quickly tap twice consecutively, for example when typing using on-screen keyboard where I will tap twice very quickly, my X1 just senses my input as a long click. For example when I am using notes, I put one finger on the left side and another on the right side. When I tap on the right then lift up my finger, and quickly tap on the left, it will result in a staight line instead of just 2 points.
Are there any tweaks I can do in the registry to minimize the time to wait for another tapping? So that it can recognize a new tap as soon as I finish my first tap?
Sorry for my poor English.

Anyone knows how??

Answer phone call other than swipe to right?

Does anyone know how to setting answer phone call by push home button or using fingerprint? It is not easy to swipe to right when I use the left hand.
Thanks.

I'd be interested too the answer button you swipe is a bit small for me to see on the fly.

Nice.. I need too

headphones? smartwatch?

Looks like it cannot be done with the stock rom. CM has an option let you answer incoming call by tap the home button. My previous Samsung galagxy S4 also has this option. So may try other customize rom or wait CM 13?
