i have my kaiser set to not capitalize but when i txt msg, it automatically captalizes? btw i have the palm txt app.
By default it starts sentences with mixed case lettering. i.e. the first letter is caps, the rest are not.
...unless it's capitalizing every letter, then try hitting the shift key twice so it stays on.
so theres no way to fix that?
well which one is it doing?? Initial caps or all caps?
initial caps,
open the keyboard, then click the arrow next to the keyboard and click Options. On the options tab, uncheck "Capitalize first letter of sentence"

This is what you would believe should happen, but this has never worked for me at all. Not in WM5 and not in WM6.

when i place a phone call my normal procedure is:
1: press the green phone button
2: slide the keyboard out
3: begin typing a few letters of the name
4: use the arrow key on the keyboard to scroll down to the persons name <--- this is very important
5: hit return and talk
i am finding that i am unable to use the arrow keys to scroll down to select a contact on the Tilt as opposed to the HTC 6800. remember, i'm already have the kb open at this point and would prefer to just continue using it.
this then requires me to pull out the stylus or try and nail tap the contacts name from the list that appears.
it seems to only way to scroll through is to select Contacts first, start typing a few letters then scroll down and click the name then scroll some damn more and tell the phone to call. this strikes me as gratuitious.
has anyone else experience this annoyance and if so, has anyone found a solution?
i tried replacing the dialer with the touch dialer but it seems to simply skin the same lame functionality.
please advise.
I understand you want to use the kb at this point, but how hard is it to just raise your left thumb up 1.5" and use the D-pad?
I can duplicate the problem, but I've got a similar "OK... But..." comment.
Why use the keyboard? When the phone pops up, start tapping the numbers associated with the letters in the name and it'll intelligently start filtering the list. Then use a finger or the D-pad to select the one you want.

ok - i had never really done that. im just so comfortable typing on the qwerty kb that that has always been the method i have used which worked up until this phone.
only irritant i can find with the dialpad method is there is no space key for first letter first name first letter last name.
i can live with it i guess but its not nearly as bling when yer tapping on the dial pad like every other phone out there instead of using your kick ass slide out keyboard.
the habit may have transfered from my days with a treo where you simply type the name and dial.
very convenient.
I have been using the transcriber function and it has been working great. But now it has stopped working. When I click transcriber, then try and write, it acts as if I am trying to select text. How can I re enable it?
***bump***
You have obviously done the obvious - click on the keyboard at the bottom of the screen until the ARROW comes up beside it and clicked on the arrow and then selected TRANSCRIBER...
Obviously you have done that. What happened when you did that?

Obviously you are right...LOL
When I click on transcriber as you have mentioned, the transcriber bar shows up with the arrows backspace settings and all. But when I try and write on the screen, the transcriber bar goes away and it then acts as if I am trying to select lines of text. I have looked around on my phone but I can't find anything to reset it.
are u sure ur in the text box where u are supposed to type when u open the transcriber?
try giving focus to the box first and then choose transcriber
I tried using transcriber today, but it won't recognize my text at all when I try to use it in the Notes section of my contacts. I write a word, it disappers and I hear a beep.

I have done that. I click in the area where I would normally use the keyboard and the transcriber bar comes up. I then try to write and the transcriber bar goes away. Not sure what to do.

Mine won't even show the word I'm trying to write. I used to write on the screen and it would show what I was writing but it doesn't get that far. No beeps or anything.
Any ideas guys besides a hard reset???
The notes field will work with transcriber. So don't do a hard reset. You have to click on the EDIT button on the lower left and THEN it will work.
Bill
Actually works just fine in contact/notes....provided you are in the edit mode instead of just viewing
A hard reset seemed to fix mine...
Just a Reminder
Touchflo and the Transcriber don't play nice together so make sure to disable Touchflo.
Does anyone else have the following problem ?:
When you go to the SMS tab, and press the small box to start writing new SMS, if you use the original Diamond keyboard, you can just type a few letters of your contact and it will fully appear. If you use TouchPal (I'm using version 3.5), this feature is disabled, you have to type your entire contact name every time, it doesn't recognize the first few letters and try to find a match. This is SO annoying !
Please tell me there is some workaround...
Could it be that the Diamond's original keyboard stores all the contact information in the Keyboard dictionary ?, if this is true, it means no keyboard apart from Diamond's original will allow quick find of contacts in SMS...
no problem with me..
say for eg you wanna call "home"
just press H O and enter and then it will detect home in my contact.
i suspect the problem may be.. touchpal "store" what you pressed in its own list instead of going up to the SMS directly..
Same problem. Would love to see an solution, but I think there is none...
Wizard,
Do you have the Touchpal keyboard ???
its free for personal use available online..
The contacts don't display when you start typing, but if you only type a few letters and then press send a page appears with all contacts that have the letters you've typed in their names. You can then tap the contact you wish to send to.
I don't find it a problem.

Anyone have this issue to or a fix to it?
Hey All,
I have 4 concerns about SMS that I need anyone to share his/her knowledge with them.
Is there anyway to start sms in an ABC Mode? (Not T9)
Second is there any registry setting that I can change so sms starts in the writing field not the phone number field?
Third, is there a way so I can I always enable CAPS to be always on??
Forth Is there any registry editing that can make the first letter I write in an sms to be a capital letter one? or any letter wrote after a (.) for example to be capital?
Please anyone shares his experience about these concerns.
Thanks.

If you change to T9, or ABC, it should remember next time you write a message

Depends on which keyboard, try pressing CAP button twice

Should happen as default
You need to leave a space so that it puts a capital letter after a punctuation mark.

Shaady: I will try leaving a space after the (.) to capitalize the letter..however, it dont capitalize the first letter I write in the sms dialog.
Thanks dudes,
But how can I check the registry settings of the keyboard are right or not?
Much appreciated.
not sure on reg settings. what ROM are u using?
i use the 'Full QWERTY' keyboard, and tapping on the CAPS/shift key twice changes to caps lock.

I use the original 1.93.737.1 ROM m8.
Maybe bec. u use the Full Qwerty keyboard it saves the T9/ABC mode for the next time you starts it bec. I tried it and It worked.
However, I use Compact Qwerty and it never saves status of the ABC/T9 Mode I use...It always starts with T9.

i go in this order to;
settings
locale and text
touch input
then the options are keyboard types, keyboard language, text input, and tutorial. i click text input and it only says prediction, spell correction, word completion, sound, and vibrate . every option is unchecked, but it still automatically capitalizes the first letter of every new line or sentence .
