keyboard ? registry ? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

With every application that requires or could require the keyboard it comes on screen.
I would like to open it only when I need it ( so means just tap it and open it)Its better to read mesages etc, and then answering
Can't find the settings to keep it quit till I need it.
Thanks
greetings

Me too, whats the point in getting a text message, going to read it and not being able to see it without closing the keyboard down, rubbish!!!

keyboard / texting questions

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...

Problems with pop-up-keyboard

Is it a way you can get rid of the function that the keyboard pop up with every time it seems like I might want to write something. Really irritating when you are browsing a webpage, seaching for an email, SMS, Contact i.e.
I would like that it was only the icon who showed up, and then you had to select keyboard before you could start writing.
Anyone know what I can do?
my best,
erik
bothered by this problem too... hope someone know the answer

Please help....

Ok, im really frustrated by certain things on the diamond, so much so im thinking of selling the diamond....
I love most of the features but a few things really annoy me...such as:
Why when a call connects, does the screen switch off?? This is really annoying when your listening to voicemail, for obvious reasons...
Secondly, i CANNOT switch my input type from FULL QWERTY, i change it, and then when i go back into INPUT, its FULL QWERTY again...why?
Thirdly, when entering a text, i dont want to view a full convo, and the last word of the text remains in the predict part, meaning when you click close, it asks if you want to save to drafts?
If im being stupid, then someone please explain....if not, can anyone assist? Please?
all of your problems have simple quick fixes and have been asked a million times by other people! i dont mean to be rude but please search the forum!
most of you problems can be solved with this one page thats always at the top of the diamond page!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398265&highlight=diamond+screen+turning
and look here for your input problem
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=412757
took me 2 seconds to find the thread
SEARCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and to asnwer your question, the light sensor turns the display off when you put the phone to your head, its a kind of safty feature so that you dont press any on screen buttons with your face.
i like the feature, but like many others like you dont, its on the first forum link ive just given you as is the fix to disable the sms chat interface
I did try search but came up blank....The above isnt really a solution, more of a workaround, i want the phone to function as it should, i.e be able to change the input type via settings....
Thanks a lot for your other assistance though Keyz...
you change your input option from the touch flo 3d interface, NOT the settings page on WM.
go into a new text message, and press the little keyboard icon on the bottom of the screen
im not using the TF3D interface though....using WM.....
you have TF3D turnd off?
Yes, but i have switched it back on to see if i change my mind about it...
I still cant get the screen light sensor thing to work....weird...

Stop virtual keyboard from popping up in opera

Hey guys, recently joined this forum since i got my first wm device, the SE X1
I searched the forum trying to find a way to stop the virtual keyboard from popping upp as soon as I select an input box in the opera web browser. So I was hoping you guys could help me.
oh btw, atm - I suck on wm, but Im very keen on learning so if you have any newbie tips for me that would be great too.
thanks,
Agaas

Can't answer ur question, but am gonna ask another - if you don't mind... "does the on-screen keyboard come up when the hardware keyboard is opened too?"
AFAIK this is a persistent problem, but there is a null keyboard without any keys which wont get in your way when it pops up.
http://freewareppc.com/utilities/nullkeyboard.shtml
Surur
yes, thats the problem! it does so when its open. wouldnt mind if it did when closes
thanks for the link to the null keyboard, unfortunatly it didnt work. Ille see if I cant find another one
okey, I tried "Phm null keyboard", it worked but made the icon flick and looked strange so I removed it
Doesn't bother me just hit a button on the hardware keyboard and it dissapears
someone else who has a tip?
Same problem since years and generations of WM
I don't recognize it anymore. One tab on the hardware-keyboard and it is off again.
Pls. This can't be difficult to fix for a smart person.
The easiest fix currently known has already been stated.
Place the cursor into a text box, and allow the on-screen keyboard to pop up. Then slide the phone open and expose the hardware keyboard. Next hit the space key, and then slide the phone closed.
Problem solved until you bring the on-screen keyboard up again.

Yes ofcourse but it would be nice to somehow disable it from popping up automaticly
I don't see the big problem about this issue. Does the keyboard stay up on the Xperia? I know on my device all I do is hit the text box and start typing on the hardware keyboard and the virtual disappears as soon as I hit the first key.

That's correct it does disappear on the X1.

Im sure i saw a registry hack for this problem. does anuone have any more info#?

I tried that and could get no virtual keyboard to come up even when I wanted one. Had to change the value back again.

Application Android keyboard Not Responding

Have this message when i start Android:
"Sorry!
Application Android Keyboard (in process com.android.inputmethod.latin) is not responding."
This doesnt seem to cause any problems and if i click wait it continues to work fine, but is there anyway to stop this from happening in the 1st place?
I am getting this exact text when I try to use the Greek Keyboard which I never managed to make it work! I wonder if developers removed all the non-english/latin keyboards for space saving! If they did I kindly ask them to put them in their next build!
yer either that, or whether someone could tell me how to disable keyboards, i found where they both are, but im not entirely sure which is the default one, and how to remove the other, as im only interested in the basic keyboard anyways.
