WM5 Keyboard fix - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

Using WM5, WWE on SX66 (20B1) device. Latest patch and all.
Is there a fix yet for the keyboard priority so that my meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesages do not comeeeeeeeeee ouuuuuuuttttttttt like thissssssssssss?
:lol:

dont have the problem is it hw?
gotta tel you I dont have the problem, might be hw?

Stopping the repeat
I have tested this on several units and it has fixed every single one.
Go to Settings>>Personal
then >>Input
Go to the tab >>Options
and unclick Scroll upon reaching the last line.
Then go to a message and create a new one. Type at least two lines and then exit. You will still see the scolling work at this time. Then do a soft reset and when you are back up and running the repeat problem should be fixed.

What I did to fix this problem is a lot more easier ;D, goto start > settings > system > keyboard, then hit repeat setting, and make it all the way to the left, that way it doessssssssssssssssssnt repeat

But whatever fix u do its still laggy... u can have pauses in your wrighting and seems very unstable...sometimes my keybord just stops working and sometimes its REALY slow.

That made it a little better, thanks for the tip. It still sometimes doubles up on certain letters but overwhelmingly not as bad as beforeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
Thanks for the tips guys, I appreciate it.

Button lock always returns after soft reset

Hi guys, I am having some little problems with my Xda2i as following.
1. I use button lock to stop using the camera button (as I always accidentally touch it then camera starts, many time I open camera without notice for long time till my battery almost gone!!) Every time I soft reset, it always turn to defalut mode.
2. Also the same happen with "today". I show some items such as Worldmate. When soft reset, it disappears (though I ticked to show it always)
3. Favorites network also the same, ticked it then changed after reset.
Could anybody please help me?.
Many many thanks in advance..
do what i have done removed the camera from my start up prgrams and allocated the button to none that way it can't activate
as for the others i'm not to sure ,i'm sure some1 else will be able to help
Sounds like somehow the registry has become read only. Have a look in the startup folder and see if there any programs in there that shouldn't be running. Also has this started after some program has been installed?
Hi Pug, checked my startup and found below program lists
-camera_detect
-checkautorun
-clear_notify
-IA_CID_start
-PHM Traylaunch
-PhotocontactPro
-Pocketnavy
-poutlook
-RunBT
-spb GPRS monitor
-STK
It seems like you doubt, it happens after program installation.
Any more advice?
Many many thanks
I don't doubt you at all, just trying to help you solve this.
PHM hasn't got a registry restore feature has it? If it has try disabling it. I don't use it so I don't know.
Don't know what that Pocket Navy is so can't comment on that.
If you delete Camera_Detect you can assign the camera button to something else if you want and the button assignment will survive a soft reset.
Sorry for my aweful english, Pug.
This problem wa before PHM installed, it should be ok (anyway I am not knowledgable to know if it has registry or not. I am too new hands)
Pocketnavy is "CloseAll" I like it more because it has window to see running programs and can select to close which one. THe most important is it free.
I will try to fix it as you recommend. Very appreciated your time to help.
Thanks again

Strange problem when typing SMSs

Hi! I am new here, and first I would like to thank all you (and especially the image providers) for your fantastic work, which has made my blueangel experience much better than it could ever be with the old, out-of-date original software!
I swear I've read the FAQs and searched the forum, but I really cannot find the answer to my question.
Here it is: I've got a strange issue with all the WM5 ROMs I've tried up to now (I've got the latest my baniaczek now): when writing a text message (SMS), when I reach the fifth line, all the characters/words I've written in that very line start moving horizontally back and forth in the range of maybe sthg like 20-30 px. When I write a character, everything moves right, when I enter the following character all the line goes back to its original position.
I know it is strange and difficult to explain, and moreover not severe, but sometimes it's a bit annoying as the keyboard hangs and llllllllllllots of letters appear before I can stop it...
Does anyone has the same issue? Does anyone know its cause?
Thank you very much!!!
Please excuse me if this has already been asked and answered, I'm very sorry in that case. Thanks for the patience, please don't hate a novice
same problem
i have that same problem too...the random typing one...a t first i just thought that there's something wrong with the buttons on my keyboard but it seems that its a software problem....lemme know if u find a solution
just reporting I'm using helmi+baniaczek cf2 r2 too but i'm not facing sms problem, i've test it..
but i cannot test the keyboard since my flexicable worn out ...
Thank you very much for this feedback! At least I'm not the only one...
Indeed I had forgotten to say that it happens only using the hardware keyboard, while using the software one in the same conditions doesn't cause this behaviour. Who knows?
sometimes i get that error too.
I am just trying different settings in the system to see how it goes
Solution id damn easy.
If someone have similar problems do this:
Go to "settings -> system -> keyboard & backlight -> repeat settings" all you have to do, is to extend the repeat delay, and slower the repeat rate.
I also disabled the word incompletion stuff.

Messages open at the bottom!?

Anyone else got this... Every time i open a message it seems to default to the bottom of the message... i.e. a blank screen. So I have to scroll up to the top of every message i get!
How do i fix this!? its really annoying!
I have the same problem... I think it is rom specific though... I am using WM6.1...Sleuth V3
It's a registry hack issue. Install Kaiser Tweaks and disable the D-Pad scrolling.
If you are using Kaisertweak, make sure you have the D-Pad Scroll Navigation set to default.
fantastic - thanks
when i installed KaiserTweak i basically just put everything onto it's advised setting
Which option is it? I cant find it in KaiserTweak.

In KaiserTweak Collapse all the trees one by one until you get all the way down to PocketIE. In there set D-Pad Scroll Navigation back to Disabled.
AFAIK, this is not a registry problem. in fact all you have to do is to choose the way your messages are arranged
at the right upper corner of the messages application (right below the clock) there is a tab that arranges your message by: Message Type, From, Received, Subject
normally it's ticked to received, but if you hit Received again you will see your messages arranged from the older one you got and the newest is at the bottom... all you have to do is to hit Received again.. And you're done
Cheers

Perhaps you should read the actual issue again, cos you're talking about something else
oh, my bad...
knwoing this is the isuue, it happens with me also sometimes
Thanks
Hi Guys, Thanks alot. that was really starting to bug me, and I had the feeling that the only way to return it to "normal" would be to hard reset, so just deseleting the D Pad in the Tweak and soft resetting has saved me alot of trouble.
Thanks Again,
Tom

Hey guys,
I'm experiencing the same thing with a Helmi AKU 3.5 ROM that I've put on my Universal. I know that KaiserTweak is for the....Kaiser, but I was wondering if anyone knew exactly which registry hack to change to "disable DPad scrolling". I read in one of these posts that it was under the PocketIE settings, and I do know that my PocketIE has been hacked to support "high resolution mode", so maybe this is what is causing my issue (although I've found nothing about the setting in IE itself).
If anyone can enlighten me (probably with a Registry setting), even if you've already 'fixed' your Kaiser, I would appreciate it immensely, as this small issue is slowly driving me nuts!
Thanks in advance all,

Switching to Landscape exits programs?

I seem to be having an issue now and then when I start typing in landscape mode, the phone switches back out to the landscape home screen. I have to switch back to the app while in landscape mode in order for me to continue.
Is there a way to stop this from happening?
Thanks!
thank God i've found someone who has similar problem like me! hopefully someone can guide us how to solve this problem.. many thanks!
I get the same problem, it does it in all different programs.
yeah, but it's odd because it only happens after some time of usage. Once I restart the phone, it seems to be ok again.
Well I must say that's why I've quit using RomeOS' ROM's, I had the same issue but not on the PROVEN ROM so I'll continue to use that one...
I have this problem, too. I'm using the stock att rom. Instead of rebooting to fix, you can just disable and re-enable tf3d.
It's also worth noting that a guy I work with just got a new fuze, and he has this problem as well. He hasn't installed anything on the phone yet, so that proves it's a problem with tf3d.
How i fixed mine...
This happend to my when I tried to install a different
HTCvolumeControl.dll
Maybe your rom has a bad HTCvolumeControl.dll
Try deleting HTCvolumeControl.dll and the rom will re-create after a restart.
If that doesn't work... maybe the rom has a bad HTCvolumeControl.dll
i have the same problem.. and i havent installed anything on my phone yet!
i have the same problem too,(i am running the stock att rom) mine switches back to portrait them back to landscape and back again a couple of time before stopping, i tried restarting a it works fine for a couple of minutes then it happens again, any help will be much appreciated
it has something to do with the customer taskbar icons, i only fixed it after removing sdkcerts, and the custom icons i had.

Thanks for sharing.. Would you mind to explain more detail?.. where is the "sdkcerts" ?
yeah, share information with us =)
I can't believe more people aren't talking about this problem. I deleted HTCvolumeControl.dll with no luck. I also uninstalled sdkcerts and even my custom icons. The problem still comes back. A second guy I work with got a fuze, and his has this problem straight out of the box. So that's 3 that I personally know of.
To clarify, the programs don't actually close, they just lose focus when the keyboard is opened, and then go into the background as the landscape menu comes to the front. Today, I noticed that opera goes to the background when I rotate my phone... the screen turns to landscape, then the task bar shows up, then it kicks back to tf3d.
Another way to test if the problem is happening is to goto the messaging tab, click to create a new message, then just open the keyboard. Sometimes I start typing, and then the phone comes up accepting the keys I'm typing. Then the landscape menu comes up on top of that.
I also changed my registry to disable landscape mode in tf3d. I thought that solved the problem (I didn't miss having the stupid landscape menu), but it still happened, only when I opened the keyboard, the phone came up. If I didn't hit any keys, it would disappear and whatever program I was in would come back. That was only slightly less annoying than before.
The past 2 days, I've been constantly testing to see if the problem was happening (restarting tf3d makes it stop for a while), and it didn't happen for 2 straight days. It started again today, and I hadn't touched my phone since I had last tested for the problem. In between that time, I received 2 emails. I didn't test before I opened the emails, but one had a link that I clicked on, and then the problem happened in Opera when I rotated the phone. So something happened when I either received the email, opened the email, or clicked the link to goto Opera.
I'm sure if we can pinpoint exactly what is causing this problem to start happening after a restart, we can fix it... or figure out some sort of workaround. So to anyone that has this problem, please post as many details as you can about what apps you were running or anything that could help determine the root cause of the problem. Only then can a fix be developed. I'm already digging all over the registry trying to find something to change that would fix this, but it's hard to fix something when you don't know what's causing the problem.
Is this only a fuze problem or are other TPs are experiencing this??
just to confirm im having the same problem on the normal version of the Touch pro (stock ROM)
a little pointer too: When you want to send an sms do the following. Start new sms, open the keyboard. Then WAIT a second (dont start typing immediately). Then start typing.
For some reason this does not seem to exit my messaging. If i start typing immediately it sometimes closes
To remove sdkcerts, download the .cab here http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=67540&d=1201425248
i have a very similar problem that's been driving me crazy!!! on my TP everytime i slide out the keyboard when i have an app open in which i choose to type via the keyboard, my dialer pops up!!! The exact same thing happens as soon as i slide it back away. Very frustrating is the "g" rated way of describing this issue. FYI - even had this problem before any installations on a brand new device fresh out of the box.
yes.. i'm having that dialer problem too.. everytime i open my keyboard even in SMS mode or Opera, my dialer will pop-up.. very annoying...
i've also tried disable TF3D and use normal Today screen, the dialer problem and programs exit problem when opening the keyboard are still happen !!! wtf is wrong with the landscape mode??!! i've tried searching anything can be edited in registry but i'm too afraid i'm going to break my TP or cause me to hard reset
to all experties, pls help us...
p/s: i'm using stock ROM, for all custom made ROM users, do these problems happen to u? ...

[SOLVED] super annoying long click popup menu problem

hi
i've been having this random problem with a lot or cooked wm6.5 roms, sometimes it happens after 1st or 2nd reboot, other times it happens after a couple days.
The problem is the long click popup menu, it's missing the top most active option, i have this image here as an example from the calendar, but it happens with all applications with the popup menus.
the top option (new appointment) only shows up after pressing some other option, if i click the tools option for ex. it opens the other menu but blank cause it only has one line, so unless i already know the program i dunno what's there...
i notice that it happens after i install some programs, but it happens with diferent ones, sometimes it causes the problem, sometimes it doesn't! so i don't think it's specificly related to a particular program... only way i have to fix it is to hard reset,, which is a pain in the ass... it's soooooo annoying!
It seems like there's another layer of menu on top of the correct one and it's causing the problem, i would like to know if there's any file, a .dll or something that i can substitute to fix/restore the popup menus without having to hard reset.
Thanks in advance
Omg omg omg!!!!
Finally!!! found the culprit of the problem!
it just hit me, i change some things in Advancedconfig, including, ANIMATE MENUS! i usually enable that option when i am setting up things and installing some apps after flashing a new rom... that's why it was eluding me... it worked fine with wm6.1...
wow, what a relief hehe just disabled animate menus and the popup menus returned to normal
