Ok my favorite thing so far with my tilt was when i selected the new message button(the phone with the envelope on it)and when i needed to type in the recipient in the "To:" field if i typed the first few letters or numbers it would give me auto fill options. Well now it won't do it. Did i turn something off or how can i get this back? I hope this makes sense.
Thanks,
Chris Klein
Have you recently changed your ROM? ie flashed?
no but i un installed htc keyboard/dial and it works. is there a way to have this keyboard and still have this function?
Actually same fix as, for instance, in this thread:

Look at #9 for dl.

When I install the keypad I get something really weird and unwanted when I want to write a new text message.
Without the keyboard installed I can write the first couple of letters of a contact and it will give me a list of contacts that match that set of letters. however once the touch keyboard is installed I just get its own autocomplete kick in... even when I submit the letters the contact popup doesn't come up?
Does anyone know a way of keeping the contact functionality and the keyboard at the same time?
I've tried disabling XT9 reg file in one of duttys threads, still no joy
Yeah the exact same thing happened on mine and unfortunatley i couldnt find a solution either and eneded up removing it from the device, this being a real shame cause it was very useful specially for texting one handed.
A part solution is to send new text, use touch keyboard to enter first couple letters like you would before then menu / check names it should then bring up a list of ones that partially match, bit long winded though.
Anyone else found a solution to this?
Anyone found a solution to this? I'd love to be able to use the htc pad...!
can anyone recommend a better input thing that will preserve the mentioned function?
I just press the 'to ' text yo the left and use the list , tis fairly fast -- but now I must go as my battery is almost dead!
Its quicker to just to press a letter
Can't anyone think of a fix!!?
Can I just use the sip file or something from the cab?
I've found a cab to disable the XT9 and it means that you can press a letter and it will come up with contacts matching the letter... however it messes up the touch keypad and board.. they both just display all the letters and numbers. :/
so, where is the cab file then ?
Hmmm I think i saw the cab file somewhere
I don't know if this is a general WM question, as I've never had a WM phone before.
From the Home screen I choose 'Messages' then click 'All Messages' - which gives me a standard looking screen with an Inbox of all the people I've sent/received texts from.
If I choose a person, then I get the whole conversation with the person.
How do I delete a part of the conversation without deleting it all.
I've found that if I click on the persons name I get their contact info - if I press 'OK' at this then their message is highlighted. I can then choose 'Menu' then 'delete' which clears that ONE message. Surely there must be an easier way?
Also... I'm currently using the HTC Full Querty keyboard as my chosen input method. I have the T9 on and it works great MOST of the time!!
My only problem is that if I type a word sometimes it will give me another word that I dont want. How do I say no to this choice?!
Eg... I was typing a message to a friend in which I said 'did you get your ass up on the dancefloor'. When I typed 'ass' it imediately pops up with 'assets' and 'association'. If I press Space it choses assets for me. Is there something I can press to just stick with 'ass' without having to take its suggestion? I don't want to turn the T9 off as I find it really good for putting in apostrophes etc - and apart from this problem it works great.
Cheers...
"Is there something I can press to just stick with 'ass'"
Man i tried my best to think of a witty comment to that - but i'm struggling!
Any how, I don't know either but what I do is press space to complete the word most like the one i want, then go back & edit it. After that, the word comes up automatically when typing the approriate letters.
SMAC
ha ha...
Its happened to me heaps of times, but ass wss the only example I could remember!
My iPhone had a great little X that appeared and let me ignore its suggestions. I wish there was something similar on the Diamond.

Cant answer your second part of the question but the bit about deleting one particular conversation??. Im sure today i was able to do it but now ive wiped my messages inbox so cant really check. But im sure if you highlight that part of the conversation u want deleted then go to menu and you should have delete available. Again im pretty sure thats how i did it...deleting them one by one.
Check it and see if it works...like i said im pretty sure thats how i did it...i could be wrong tho.
Use the circular navigation button (press "up") while in the conversation screen, and then you will be able to navigate between individual messages.
Yes I know, I had to hear this from someone else too. Not very intuitive... Annoying when a good delete option is lacking...
I have one very important missing in my Diamond.
When I want to call one number that is written somewhere (if someone send it to me by SMS or if I write it in a note) usually in my Qtek s200 I copied and then pasted the number in phone (the option paste was in the menu)... now in the diamond I don't find this option in the menu!?!?!?!?! How is it possible?!?! Do I have to write it somewhere else and then use it in phone?!?!!
Please... do someone have an idea??
Thnx!!
Urosh
I also am missing this feature is it hidden somewhere??
i dont have this problem
errr im not sure how you did it on your old phones but this is how i do it for an sms for example: click on SMS in TF3D, get rid of keyboard, then highlight the text/number i want in the received message, then long press on the highlighted text and menu pops up so say copy (and some other options) i then click copy...
go to where i want to put the number, long press on screen again, same menu pops up, i select paste... whats the problem, am i missing something here?
Usually if you want to call and the number is in SMS, it is usually highlighted and you can click it and it will ask if you want to call it.

The first part is ok.... but then if you want to call the number that you have copied (it means that it is in your clipboard) how do you do this? In the s200 I started Phone and then Menu and there was an option Paste and the number that I copied was pasted ready to be dialed. But now here there is no paste option in the Menu.
Kraize92... and if it is not?!? Paper and pencil??

This may be specific to the dialer used in your ROM. But generally, you can copy the number in your email/text/mms or whatever. Then when you open your phone's dialer, if you have a Menu option (lower right soft key in my case), you should have an option to paste. It will then put the number into your phone pad.

Really?!? It means that I have to change it!! HHmmmm...
I have the TLR ROM... smack bob... do you have the same??

I realised that the paste function is present in the phone status menu (and not in phone keypade menu), but it is impossible to use because it comes out while you have a conversation. The problem still persists!! Any suggestion how to paste a copied number in the phone keypad???
Thnx

No, I'm not using the ROM you referenced. Never even touched the Diamond before. Just speaking in generalities based on my experience with other HTC devices and Windows Mobile.
So I'm not sure I understand what you mean when you say "it is impossible to use because it comes out while you have a conversation". Are you saying you're trying to paste a number into the dialer WHILE you are having a conversation on the phone?
Normally when you paste a number into the dialer it will open the keypad and put the number into the same field as if you'd pushed the soft number buttons on the screen. It doesn't matter if the keypad is up or not when you paste. You just need to have the paste option in your dialers menu.

I just want to paste the number in the dialer (not while I'm talking) but in the dialers menu there is no paste option. This is the problem :-(
But in my Qtek s200 I had it!
Please help!

Exactly this is the problem... I don't have a paste option in the dialer menu... like I had in my Qtek s200!
What can I do!?
Please help!
Thnx!

Yes. I met this issue too.
Anyone? Thanks.
/////////////
Sorry about my English. Highlight the phone number received, such as SMS, to restrain the phone number, click Copy.
Then enter the dialer, click on " # " in the lower right corner on the menu and already is the desired Paste.
I have Menu->Paste in my Touch Diamond, Touch Pro, Atom Life and Xda II Mini.
From experience, the Menu->Paste command normally went missing if you installed other dialer. Even after you uninstall them, it won't be there anymore. So far, I never tried to find the solution for it.
Anyway, if you're using the stock rom, hard reset would definitely bring back Menu->Paste. I'm not sure about cooked rom.
Wondering if any of this can be changed/disabled:
1. After voice inputting text, whole input is highlighted so if i press back but only one word was misspelled the entire input self-deletes.......
2. When attempting to correct text, I get this large annoying box with a "Tt" or something in it that looks like a font selection, I need it to go away.
3. when I voice input "gets" and it only shows up with "get", then I select the space where the "s" needs to be added and it suggests the entire word "gets".......so it looks like :
get|
gets|getting
and if i select the change it becomes
getgets
it's about as bad as it gets........any help on fixing these three issues would be greatly appreciated
I know this isn't going to be much help but I had the same annoyances with Handcent, so I switched to Go SMS...no major problems just small things that bother a person OCD but not a normal person lol
These problem might be keyboard base. I used Swype and didn't notice problem 2 and 3.
anyone else?

For 1 touch somewhere in the text to unselect everything and put the cursor where you want it.
2 the T box is a context menu for text editing: cut, copy, paste.
3 (on swype anyway thats all I use)select the word and double tap that will bring up the word choice window and selecting the correct word will replace it instead of just inserting it there with both of them.
Hope that helps...
Your best bet might be to ask in the Hancent forums. I also had a few issues with it so went to Go sms myself and am enjoying it alot.
Has anyone noticed that since HTC removed and replaced the phone pad and XT9 when you go to choose one single letter when typing then go to choose another single letter, it automatically adds a space in between the letters now?
Example: e y
I can't find a setting for auto spacing anywhere either. Do you think it's an error in the way they took it out then replaced it? I've never had this issue before the update.
I'm including an annotated screenshot of this page to help explain a little better what I mean.

Hey man, I am having the exact same issue as you... It's fine for people who use QWERTY keyboard as you select each individual letter yourself... Where as when you use the phone keypad you have to select them with the prediction, of course it then thinks you've entered a word and adds the space... If anyone knows a fix for this that'd be great!! I am even willing to try and edit the HTC_IME if someone can tell me where this setting might be stored.
I am also running into HTCs famous dictionary losing words like "am" "go" "in" etc... Yes it took me a hell of a long time to type this message on my phone...
