Has anyone else had the following problem? I've installed alternate keyboards (HTC, Pocket CM .12, TouchPal) and none of them seem to work. They show up in my drop down, but when I select them the Tilt will still use the default keyboard. I even tried changing it using the input selection under settings to no avail. All of the screen writing selections work fine.
Any suggestions?
try a soft reset if you haven't. or try installing to main memory
Tried multiple soft resets, reinstalling all of the above and placing in main memory.

I am having the same problems. Anyone figure out a fix for this?
thanks!
Ive had the same problem... i just gave up and went on with the norm...
I've had the same problem before. I have several onscreen keyboards installed and sometimes I can't access most of them. They just go to the default onscreen keyboard. A soft reset typically fixes the problem. For a little while at least. Kinda weird.
SIP problem
the same here :/

exact same thing here with touchpal v1 and v2 as well as pocket CM keyboard, but any keyboard built into a rom seems to work fine all the time...
Got your answer
Google up IM Selector, install it to the main memory and change the SIP default in their dropdown menu. Softreset. Bam, whatever keyboard you use.
IM Selector doesn't work on my Device
I found the IM Selector on http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/taptapkeyboard.shtml but it doesn't work on my XDA Orbit 2 (WM6). Maybe the HTC Touch Keyboard is the problem but I can't uninstall it.
Try sipchange
I installed a new IM (Calligrapher) and I experienced the same problem. My solution was to use the utility SIPchange and it worked fine for me.

I am using dutty's no.6 with touchflo on my tilt. It has the keyboard fix already as I understand it yet the ! and @ fn keys are switched. so I tried the keyboard fix install and they were still switched. Not that I can't live with it, but isn't there some easy way to just reg hack a fix on this?
Strange thing is:
I have UNinstalled the Tilt keyboard Fix and restarted (!!) the Kaiser. Then the keyboard mappings are correct, where WITH the keuborad fix they were mixed up...!
Tilt Keyboard fix
This fixed it for me.
Guys, remember to do a soft reset after installing the cab file on your kaiser.
I forgot to reset and it didn't work for me.
yep, i have to agree after installing the fix and soft reset, good to go.. thanks!!
Ok first, i thought i saw a post about this before but i couldnt find it in search so here is my question. I like using the Pocket CM keyboard, but often it wont let me use it. If i select PCM Keyboard it just goes strait to the default keyboard without doing or showing anything.
I have also had this problem with another touch keyboard (i think it was Vito's or one of the other big companys).
Has anyone else had this problem or know of a solution?
EDIT: I found this thread that seems to have the same problem. IF this is the cause, does anyone know how to completely uninstall SPB Pocket Plus? I had the demo installed, but the time ran out so i uninstalled it. But i know it leaves traces because it knows the time ran out if i try to reinstall it.

Same here. Sometimes it works, other not.
I also have SPB
I have this problem with all 3d party keyboards and I have never used any spb products. If the keyboard doesn't work I just soft reset the phone and then the keyboard works again.
I have an Orange UK Tytn 2 stock rom. Wonder what causes this problem?
Look for a program called sipchange it might help you.
I had SPB Pocket Plus (un-installed it because it wiped out my "X" button/task manager) and am now currently using Resco Keyboard Pro w/o any problems.
On my Kaiser I too had this problem with Pocket CM. However I have never had this problem with Cootek's Touchpal. I have configured Touchpal to activate at start up
i've never had this problem.
PCM Keyboard is awesome... but hardware keyboard is better IMO
I also am having this same issue with Pocket CM Keyboard but I never installed any SpB products ever. Any other ways around it?
As the subject says, I uninstalled pocket contact manager and now my keyboard is totally white but still has the characters on it???
I've tried installing different keyboard cabs and going into settings to change the keyboard to the new ones but it doesn't do anything and I'm left with the same white keyboard with no colour on it whatsoever.
I've even tried soft resetting it after selecting a new keyboard but nothing seems to work
Anyone got any ideas???
Thanks!
try touch pal keybord

This is posted in the wrong forum (not ROM related), but it sounds like you don't have a keyboard skin selected. You'll have to change it in the Input options. This is a good one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=329045
Thanks for the info guys but when I go to settings then input and select anything and click OK it just goes back to PCM Keyboard everytime so it doesn't matter what keyboard I install it won't let me use anything else?????
Anyone got any ideas??
I second this.. Ive messed mine up too.. Help it looks crap!
using duttys wm6.1 wwe on a Orange tytn II and dont really want to re-flash
*bump* aww c'mon anyone know how to fix the above?
I had the same issue a little while ago. TBH the problem stuck until I reflashed
Yup had to reflash. Was the only solution....
Try using SIPChange.
Hi,
I don't know what I've done, but when I'd like to write some message, or whatever, the original keyboard (full qwerty, or compact qwerty) keyboard starts up with the symbol pad and it's not possible to switch it back to alphanumeric mode. The only way is to invoke keyboard switch menu and select the same keyboard again. then it works as usual. Does anybody have the same problem?
as I said, I don't know, what I've done, or installed, bud I think, I've installed Advanced config 3.0 recently
I have the same problem... I also don't know what is wrong.
I also tried to disabled T9 with some tricks... that's all...
Some suggestions??
Thnx
Since yesterday I also have a problem with my HTC keyboards.
All 3 options, Qwerty, Compact Qwerty and the phonepad only gives me numbers.
I have tried all the settings.
It does not make a diverence if i turn of T9.
On the keyboard i can see the nummbers and the letters.
This is very irritating, can somebody please help?
Or is there an original cab version, al the cabs i can find are Qvga.
I have tried the Touch keyboard and it gives letters in stead of numbers, but its Qvga.
Thanks
Same problem here on the CDMA Diamond, I tried two different ROMs already the Sprint Stock ROM and a Telus Custom Juicy's 2.0 ROM. I can't use it at all and I hate doing a Hard Reset. Someone shed some light on this please.
Same problem here, have tried everything
Well I solved the problem by uninstalling PCM Keyboard... Too bad, I really liked it
Does anybody know if it's possible to run pcm keyboard without having this issue on the diamond?
since day 1 my keyboard did not show predict text ? anyone can help me ?
I had the same problem , it appeared from nowhere ..
After also trying different tricks , i solved the problem using Resco Keyboard
Pro ... It also responds much better to my taste with the touch screen
interface of the diamond.
I have had this problem on the Touch Pro too having used PCM keyboard.
Unistalled it and all back to normal.
Pity.
Same here, alas PCM's copy & paste was cool, but not if I can't use the other keyboards...

How do you use copy & paste with PCM? Which version of PCM keyboard are you using?
I've gone through multiple Roms, different versions of hyperdragon III, and different versions of PDAcorner. When I try to select a different keyboard, it loads for a second, then goes back to the default. The only keyboards that work are other defaults, such as Block Recognizer, Letter Recognizer, and Symbol Pad.
SOMETIMES PCM keyboard works, but NEVER has any of the diamond keyboards every worked.
I've even tried SIPchange, but the same thing happens. I assume the same has happened to you guys too? did you ever fix it?
thanks!
Is it just me?
How many of you use the Diamond Keyboard, or keyboard other than the default?
default IM
are you still having the same problem? did you ever try using the default im cab for wm5?
it worked for pcm, but i never tried it with the diamond keyboards.

The default cab is the ticket...it works when everything else fails. I don't even bother with the other stuff now. If the sip won't stick, I just install that cab and select it. A soft reset later and you are good to go.

doesnt work... atleast not with PCMkeyboard. I'll reinstall PCM.
I cant seem to find the raphael and opal keyboard.. but I'm going to keep ssearching lol.. i dont wanna sound like a complete noob!
edit:
sipchange and imSelector did nothing... the only reason I fixed PCMkeyboard was cause uninstalled the old and re installed it.. as far sa the raphael and opal keyboard.. i downloaded something, but im not sure if it was it, so.. could someone kindly link me to the 2 keyboards? lol
thanks.
edit: (5 seconds later)
PCMkeyboard just quit working again, and imSelector and sipchange doenst fix it.
So instead i must ask... what roms are you guys using that support SIPS?
default im selector instructions

1. install the default im wm5 cab above
2. install the opal keyboard you want
3. start > programs > im selector > opal keyboard
4. start > settings > personal > input > opal keyboard
5. soft reset
-----
you may need 2 soft reset twice before it cooperates. if you have your phone password protected, the default keyboard you selected will never show until AFTER you enter the password.
only RARELY do i get a glitch now, and a reset usually fixes the problem.
let us know!

I am in the same boat as you and the only keyboard that I have gotten to work is resco keyboard.....I have same exact problems as you...did you ask SJ about it....
SJ's opal keyboard
im having problems attaching files, but SJ's keyboards can be found here.
apply the default im instructions and a couple of soft resets later, you should be good 2 go.
I played with a Samsung Omnia yesterday, I really liked the keyboard SIP, is it possible to download and get to work on our kaiser's.
not sure...
