I'm Challenging the Experts - Messaging Problem - Palm Treo 750 ROM Development

Dear Experts,
the below is an aging problem with the treo 750.
when installing imaginet or informobility arabization suites, the below problem is noted.
in the messaging application, when typing and ending the phrase with a punctuation or ente and then pressing space, what was typed is getting omitted and some times the treo freezes.
Palm, Imaginet and Informobility couldn't fix the problem so far and none of their advises worked.
the only solution for the problem so far was to disable the arabization and to read the sentences from left to right (arabic should be from right to left).
i believe the problem is in the registry and the alignment of the characters.
if you help, you're king and i'm ready to donate in this case .

Found the solution, need help please
When you write a message with Treo 750, it automatically capitalizes the first letter of the first word after a "." or an "enter".
i want to disable this feature because it's freezing the treo when using some localization softwares or input methods.
Need experts help in here please.

Hi zkrayem -
I don't think there is a system-wide way to disable auto-capitalization unfortunately. It's usually programmed into a particular app as a property of the text input field. Just to confirm though I'll look through registry.
Is there any particular area where this is a big problem? (Like in Pocket Word, Pocket Outlook, or the SMS messaging app, etc)

Treo 750 capitalization
Thanks for that.
It's mainly in the messaging application. it's working well in word.
As noted, if i manually capitalize the first letter after punctuations (".", "?", "Enter", etc...) it's working well.
No need to capitalize after an ",".

There is a way to turn off capitalization:
Go to Settings----->Input----->Options----->uncheck "capitalize first letter of sentence"

QWERTY keybd word completion

guys...
any1 got any idea how come when I'm using the build in QWERTY keyboard, I'm having trouble typing words "near" or "haha" ?
Under options for the input types, I've already untick "Suggest words when entering text" and cleared stored entries.
For example, I can't type the words "near", it will prompt me if I want to add "a" after I've type "ne"
I do not have any problems when using the software based QWERTY keyboard though.
hmm.. dun tell me only my set having this prob?
I would suggest ticking "Suggest words when entering text" because with it unticked you wont get any words suggested!
I have the following settings on my MDA Vario III and it works perfectly:
Suggest after entering A SPACE
Suggest 4 word(s)
Add a space after word AND Enable Auto Correct ar both ticked
With that done you can add a word to the built in dictionary as follows:
1. Type the whole word you want to add e.g. near then type a space
2. Type the word again and it should be in the dictionary now (at which point it will be suggested in the list of words it brings up!)
FYI when I tested it just now my phone didn't suggest near or haha until I had typed them first, now both appear after I type a few letters!
I hope this helps, but please feel free to ask if you have any questions.
Cheers

Great. It is clear now at last how it works. Do you know also how to delet words from this dictionary?
The only way I have found to delete words is as follows BUT bear in mind that it gets rid of ALL the words that you have added:
Start>Settings>Input>Word Completion then click on Clear Stored Entries
Cheers
Zippyioa
Thanks.
I have been trying to work out how to clear out suggested words.
Clear suggested entries seemed too straight forward

Stop screen keyboard from opening automatically

Argh! its one of those annoyances that pisses me off lol.
Every time I enter a text field screen keyboard pops up covering half of the screen.
How do I stop it? I want it to open only when I click on it.
..........
Out of curiosity, are you using the standard keyboard or Pocket CM, resco ect?
Standard, the one that comes with Dutty's v4. It has a Touch skin, but I think it's standard keyboard.
If there's an answer somewhere - please point me in the right direction.. I searched and didn't find anything (it's kinda hard to phrase this one)
Sorry. Don’t have any answers for you. I was asking just to keejp note just in case a similar problem occurred with my Kaiser. I have an original non flashed rom by the way, so it probably won’t be a problem with me.

Yes you will.
It's not a bug, it's a feature.. and it comes standard with every ROM I've seen (WM5+). Most people won't have a problem with it, but if I type something, I use hardware keyboard.. so on-screen keyboard pop-up is useless for me.
ummm... well it hasn't been a problem with any of the two MDA touch's, MDA vario II, or two MDA Vario III's I've had in the last few months... Fingers crossed it'll stay that way....
I would also like to see a solution
I vaguely remember a blank-sip or none-sip program exactly for this purpose. You could make it the default. Maybe PHM made it, try searching on the web.
I like the option of using the SIP sometimes, but most of the time I don't want it. It seems like once you use it once, it thinks you want it all the time, until you use the hardware keyboard again. How hard would it be to just let me click on it when I want it. Jeez!
a blank SIP is an option in this free program: http://www.phm.lu/products/PocketPC/PowerToys/
Blank SIP is a solution, but not a very good one. When I do want to use screen keyboard, I'd have to snipe that little arrow to open SIP selection, then find what I want and click it. Wait for it to load...
It'd be easier if it just wouldn't pop-up when cursor is in the text field. There's probably a setting somewhere..
Try this....

Try these registry settings that worked for me. When I used to open a new document with ms word or go to the address bar in PIE the sip used to pop up but not after applying these settings. After import .reg file or changing them manually you will need to soft-reset.
It now only pops up when i select rename file in resco explorer. But I can live with that.
Hope this helps...

Some programs call it automatically. It's the way they're coded. I would think there wouldn't be a way to suppress the on-screen keyboard without disabling it entirely.

The only other way to do this is to go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip and change "AllowChange" from 1 to 0 and then soft-reset. However as you say this will disable it fullstop. So the only way you could enter info is either at the dialer (to call someone) or by using the slide out keyboard. To re-activate change the 0 back to a 1 at the above registry key.

Installed Touch Keyboard & Keypad. Help w/ 2 minor issues please!!

Okay ladies and gents, I have searched and searched and can't seem to find my answer. I am sure one of you smart lads can give me a response in 4 seconds.
The keyboard and keypad work great on my Tilt but I have two issues:
1) I've noticed the screen shots include a tool bar above the keyboard with options for BOLD, UNDERLINED text, ect. I do not have that. What can I do?
2) My xt9 works fine but if I want to create a new text msg, the drop box of contacts no longer appears. This is quite hard to explain but before xt9, if I inputted the letter "J," a drop box of about 7-8 contacts will show up to with names starting with J; sort of like a quick list. The more letters I inputted, the more specific of results the drop box displays. Even if I am in ABC mode, this feature is no more. Would I have to kill Xt9 via registry to revive this feature?
Thanks in advance.

I too have this similar issue
I am unable to type anything in the to: field cause of Xt9
but after uninstalling of the touch keyboard it works again
yeah, I figured it is software conflict with xt9 - you can have one or the other kinda thing. I think I rather have the xT9 than the quick list. I will just have to press one extra key (return) for every contact included.

Word Completion does not work!

Hi there, i use the block recognizer a lot to compose SMS messages and on my old touch the word completion feature worked like a charm. However, no matter what settings i use on the diamond (e.g. suggest 3 words after 1 letter etc.etc.) this feature doesn't come up!!
Does anyone have the same issue, and any fixes for it?
I got the HTC touch on the first day it came out and haven't had any problems with it whatsoever. My diamond has been full of issues since day one!
Maybe stupid...
Did you check in the settings if word completion is active?
Yes, the option is definately switched on....but no luck in actually completing any of my words!!
I have the same problem with my Spanish ROM using the "standard / classical" keyboard
Help, please!

You are correct. I complained about this in an earlier thread. I am using the latest ROM and it does not work.......
Doesn't work for me either!
Doesnt work for me either. On my Tytn I choose to create a new message and when I start to type the contacts name for the To field it lists the contacts for that letter so I can select the correct one. Then for the message it will suggest words as I type, this is exactly what I want on my Diamond. I dont use T9. The nearest I can get on the Diamond is if I have "Word completion in ABC mode" ticked in the T9 Settings box then word suggestion works but it doesnt suggest contacts for the To field when creating a new message, instead it suggests words. This is not how I want it
Same problem....
I have the same problem, but only when I use the Block recognizer, using the keyboard works fine, but I'd rather use the block r... so when I need to list the contact I place the names and when I press send the phone give me the choice to select the right contact...
you need to disable xt9, then autocomplete will work again
Use something like KaiserTweak or Boinger's diamond config to change
Hi there, I try to create a cab file which can enable the word completion function for MSFT IME ( Block Recognizer / Keyboard / Letter Recognizer ).
Have fun~
http://rapidshare.com/files/133542391/Add_MS_Qwerty_Keyboard_WC.cab.html
I'm new to this level of use - I have had Win Mobile for years, but only yesterday did my first ROM update! How do I disable T9? I'm desperate for word completion on block recogniser (the only way to input!)
SOLVED
IMPORTANT: previously be sure that HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9\XT9SupportMSSip has a value of 0.
Simply change these two registry keys under:
HKLM\system\currentcontrolset\control\layouts\e 0010409
Ime File : \windows\xt9ime.dll change to Ime File :\windows\compime.dll
and
Layout Text : XT9 IME change to Layout Text : COMP IME
And soft reset.

It Worked!!!! ur a genius thx a million bro
Thank you for this - it worked beautifully!
Thanks to you, it worked like a charm
Nope it does not work perfectly. After that change, word completion only works for letter recogniser, but it does not work for the phone keyboard, compact qwerty, anything that uses the phone keypad.
The HTC keyboards all use T9 word completion, this thread was for the MS keyboards/input methods.

Do you know maybe a solution to have word completion in ABC mode also for HTC keyboards?!?!
Thnx

I tried it... It is working perfectly good!!! Thank you very very much.
Changed my registry settings as suggested on my HTC Diamond and it worked perfectly fine. Thanx a lot. I really missed this.

t9 dictionary and marking emails as read from TouchFLO

Hi everyone,
I think at one point I accidently typed Im instead of selecting I'm from t9 and now I'm never shows up when I type im in compact qwerty mode. Is there a way to manually delete the word "im" from the t9 dictionary so it will use "I'm" instead?
Also is there a way to mark messages as read from TouchFLO 3d or to make it so as soon as I "flip" to a message it marks it as read?
Thank you!
For deleting/adding words in the T9 dictionary:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=415181&highlight=dictionary
Thank you very much. It is an exe so I need Windows to use it right? I guess I'll boot up Vmware! Any ideas about the marking mail as read when you "flip" through them in TouchFLO 3D?
You have to run the application on your mobile phone and not on your Desktop PC.
Oh really? I didn't know Windows Mobile ran .exe's I thought it was just .cab's Thanks for letting me know. I'm brand new to Windows Mobile
I tried the t9 utility you linked to, but I can't get the word I'm to complete. I added it to the t9 dictionary but when I type the keys I and M it just completes to Im. Do I need to do something to get the changes to stay? Oh and is there a registry tweak that I can add so that it stops adding my words to the dictionary unless I explicitly tap the "plus" button and add it?
Anyone? It sucks to have to manually type the ' key every time I type I'm in compact QWERTY
You may want to post your inquiry in the thread above, and see if Sourceress (poster of the zip/exe file) could help.
Thanks for the tip tzour. I'll try that out!
