i searched all over and cant seem to find it, if there even is a way. is there a way to change my default keyboard to a different one?
thanks in advance
What do you mean? When using the on screen keyboard, you want to set a particular input mode to be the default?
like during texting i want to have PCM keyboard as my default so i dont have to keep selecting it. is there a way?
I know that you can remove some of the other input options, using Sktools or PocketTweak (freeware)
you could always remove all the other options from showing up, so the only thing that shows up is the one you want.
with sktools you can set default sip - BUT sometimes it crashes...
there is an app called "sip change" try my search function in signiture

This is for the Gurus here Is there any app or any other way to set different input methods for different apps without manually switching it?
For example, for contact editing and notes I would like to use the screen keyboard, but when I type sms I'd like to use the on screen phonepad. It's kind of a pain to switch manually every time. Is this possible at all?
Is anyone having the problem where they pick another input type (i.e. PCM Keyboard, TouchPal) and it defaults back to the WM Keyboard? I like to use a soft keyboard for "one-handed" use sometimes. Anyone know of a workaround or fix?
Do a search for SIP changer.cab It allows you to set your default keyboard and it will restore it after a soft reset.

I downloaded the SIPChange program and it didn't seem to help. When I reboot, it still comes up with the MS Keyboard. When I select another input method like PCM Keyboard or TouchPal, it goes back to keyboard. Any ideas? This is getting extremely frustrating.
I found with sip changer, you need to run it and make the selection there and confirm it with the button in the middle of the screen, not the OK button in the top right.
If that doesn't help, I'm at a loss as it works fine for me.
If I understand the OP correctly, it isn't simply an issue of what defaults, it's an issue of being able to select the 3rd party keyboard, period. I have the same problem with ToughPal... I install touchpal, it works for a while, then after a while it can't be selected. It's in the pop-up list to select, but selecting it results in the standard keybard. I uninstalled, re-installed, and it worked for a while, and now it's back to not working.
SIP Change also addresses the issue of the 3rd party keyboards not showing up correctly. I'd tried PocketCM keyboard and it had failed, but SIP Change fixed that once I'd executed it correctly.

I tried a couple of things as well. One of them was to change the setting to 5 seconds first. That didn't work. Once I changed it back to 10 seconds, it worked fine on this reboot. Will post back here if I run into problems again. Also, I only tested it with PCM Keyboard and not TouchPal.
Hello,
I used the search and Google to look for an option to turn T9 off, but I couldn't find anything. I'm currently using the Full QWERTY keyboard on my MDA Compact IV and by default it has T9 on, which I really don't like. Every time I start writing a text or something else I have to switch to the ABC mode.
So basicly my question is: Is it possible to change the default setting of these modes? T9 is on by default, but I want to be off by default and ABC mode on by default. I hope someone can help me.
Also on another note, is it possible to show 'Tasks' in the start menu instead of just 'Calendar'. Now I have to click on 'Start', 'Calendar' and after that on 'Tasks'. I just want it to be right there. I'm by the way guessing those are the menu names, since I'm using a Dutch version. It's called 'Taken' and 'Agenda' on my phone.
Thanks in advance.
*bump*
Doesn't anyone know how to do this? Is it even possible?
Same here...is there somebody who knows a solution????
Really NOBODY?????
I've been trying to look for an option to change in the registry. So far I haven't been able to find anything. So, is there someone else out there who knows how to help us ?
There is a cab file here for disabling t9, the problem is that it doesn't disable only t9 in full qwerty, but in all the keyboards, and on the standard keypad version you only get numbers. not very convenient...

And by the standard keypad you mean the keypad of the actual phone? That's not convenient at all. I wouldn't removing T9 from all the keyboards though. I have never used it and probably never will, since I just don't like it.
To disable XT9 Windows Mobile:
Go to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Tegic\eT9\ and change the key "XT9SupportMSSip" from value from "1" to "0".
Works on my diamond, hope this is what you're looking for

Hm, that didn't work for me. It was also on "0" for me by default, so I tried setting it to "1". That didn't work for me either.
Hi guys,
to turn off T9 by default change the value:
HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9\IME\CarrierDefaultTextMode
from "1" to "0"

Wow, thanks a lot kasikm! That's exactly what I wanted!
What I would like is the opposite...I would like T9 active by default. I use Compact QWERTY and sometimes T9 is on and sometimes it isn't.
Hi Guys
Sorry if this has been posted, I did do a search and couldn't find a solution.
Whenever I change the input type in the input settings, it immediately defaults back to compact qwerty when I go back in to look.
Is this a known problem?
Thanks in advance
Nobody have any ideas?
After flashing the new ROM i've the same problem.
Every time i switch the keyboard layout, it automatically returns to compact QWERTY.
Can the layout be set in the registry?
I haven't found any solution yet.
fixing the default imput method
I also had this problem and it was driving me mad! However, searching the forum I came across a recommendation to use a little program called SIPchange. I installed this (it's free!) and it allows you to set any imput method as the default. So far it seems to work.
The only problem I now have is that the Letter Recogniser doesn't show me any suggested words as I enter text, despite this option being switched on in the settings. Any ideas anyone?

How can you set the default keyboard on the phone? When I go to Language & Input>Set up Input Methods the screen is blank even though I have Google Keyboard installed. Nothing comes up when trying to type something either. Any ideas?
