It never did until yesterday. Unless i clicked the "show keypad" button. Now on entering any message program and Internet explorer etc it pops up !
thanks
I always thought the default settings for the keypad was that when you opened a page, if the 'default' place for the cursor was in any sort of 'text input' box (web browser URL bar, messaging login or text box etc...) then the keyboard would pop-up automatically, as soon as you clicked outside of the text box the keyboard disappeared?.

is there a program out there that can spell out the words while u texting like the "DASH".or so is it any way you can copy/paste right from the Internet Browser
With Android 1.5, the Locale & Text settings allow you to program your own words into the dictionary, and set keyboard settings (like auto-correction). I'm sure auto-correction on the hardware keyboard is possible on 1.1 still, but I can't remember where.
As for copy/paste, you can do so in mail and browser by holding the shift key on the keyboard and selecting with your finger or the trackball. On the browser, the menu also includes a "select text" option.
Thz alot ill do that now
whenever i open a SMS, or MMS, its scrolled all the way to the bottom, landscape or portrait mode, is there a simple fix to change this? even on 1 word SMS/MMS.
Usually this means that you've tweaked your registry a bit.
In Kaisertweak, there is an option under PocketIE called "D-Pad Scroll Navigation". If its enabled, you must set it back to disabled. otherwise pocketoutlook will do this scrolling thing...
With WM6.5, I see a new "Inbox" item at the top of the popup (right context button) menu while viewing email message bodies.
At a guess, I'd suppose this allows a quick and easy way to either move the current message to the Inbox (doesn't make a lot of sense, since the "Inbox" pop-up menu item appears on message bodies being viewed within the Inbox itself), or to simply jump to the Inbox... neither of which seems like a good use of screen real estate (not to mention that I keep clicking this by accident, expecting good old Delete to be in that position...).
Anyone know...
1. What this "Inbox" item at the top of the email message body context pop-up menu actually does? And...
2. How to remove this "Inbox" item from that pop-up menu?
Thanks,
Jay
This version of Swype is not the latest, but it works with the default HTC msg app. The latest beta does not capitalize or add spaces between words. This one adds spaces when you enter the NEXT word in the sentence. It's odd, but at least it works.
Download the apk, use Root Explorer or another file manager to install. Go to settings / language & keyboard, and enable Swype. Then go to any text input field (browser, msg app) and longpress the input field. When you lift your finger, "Input method" popup box appears. Touch the box and select Swype. Go back to settings / language & keyboard to change Swype settings as desired.
Thanks for the info. For me, Swype doesn't add a space between words. I've reinstalled and tried everything and it still doesn't work.
I'll download and try your fix.
An I using Google's Tap to Translate correctly? In the past I'd select some text, such as a SMS message with a long press, then click the three dots menu and select "Copy text". The Google Translate icon would then pop up - I'd click it and the translation would appear...
Now, as far as I can tell, the Tap to Translate icon has to be enabled to continuously float over everything for it work. Am I missing something - the icon floats over the camera, over videos, gets in the way over other apps.
Any way to return to how it used to be as a sensible pop up function that only appeared when needed???
