Keyboard Issue: Backspace vs Delete - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

My hardware keyboard seems to be acting up. searched and didnt find a solution.
sometimes as im typing and i hit the Backspace button, it functions as Delete (keep in mind, i havent pressed Fn yet). i have to press Fn, then hit Delete, then turn off Fn in order for it to go back to Backspace.
anyone else have this issue or know how to fix it?

What phone/ROM? If its a TILT then search for the keyboard fix, that may help..

stock AT&T ROM 1.57.502.2 on Tilt.

I'm having the same issue using the latest L26 Diamond ROM (v9)... guess it's related to the ROM... will post a bug report to L26. Hope he can correct this for next version !

Remap keys on Tytn II / Kaiser

I just flashed my Tytn II with a new rom and some of my keys are now wrong i.e. press fn Q and get ! instead of @. I've searched and cannot find a fix for this. I tried putting on Alex's keyboard fix and it didn't work. Does anyone know where I can find the file that has to be edited to the right characters or a cab that will do it for me. Sorry if this has been asked before but I've been searching for 2 hours and can't find anything. Thanks
Use Schap's Advanced Configuration Tool to change Keyboard Layout parameter.
Thanks, but I tried that too and it doesn't work. Is there not a txt file or something which I can edit?
I created a virtual keymapping for the difference between the HTC Herald & T-mobile Wing. Maybe this will work for you because it sounds just like the problem we had over in the Herald forum....
So try this :
KEYBOARD FIX for WING / HERALD & ROM hardware keyboard (keybddr.dll) mismatch
Use the Herald keyboard Fix ... because i think the herald & kaiser have the same keyboard layout.

Thanks for the response... But it didn't work either. I appreciate the help though. Any other manual ways to do this?

OK, I got it working thanks to a great member who had already dealt with this so I copied and pasted from the other thread and here's the answer:
4) The Rogers ROM changes the hardware keyboard layout. The layout is the same as used by the AT&T Tilt and so some of the keys behave differently (for example pressing @ brings up a ! and visa-versa). To fix this problem I needed to delete the registry key HKLM>HARDWARE>DEVICEMAP>KEYBD>CWSLayout

Hi,
I've recently bought an HTC TyTN II and am having problems with the keyboard. The "alt" keys are not how they are mapped on the keyboard, and I can't get a comma.
I've tried the above methods apart from the Rogers ROM, the link supplied isn't active any longer and googling the rom there are loads to choose from.
Can anybody help me?
Cheers,
Craig

Keyboard issue

When typing messages slightly speedily on certain keys after pressing the space bar it doesnt recognise that I pressed the space bar..
for example typing "hello will" it would come up as "hellow ill". I have just installed Duttys latest ROM. Is this a known issue?
Thanks
Its a problem with Dutty's new roms. I had the same problem. I ended up going back to NoThrills.
Thats annoying.. do his older ROMs not have this problem then? Which ROM do you recommend is best for the Kaiser?
Cheers
i have the same problem. Duttys ROMS are great, but i think its the dualtouch keyboard and xT9 that interferes with the hardware keyboard somehow.
I wish there was a fix for this!
We need to make people more aware of this in order to find a fix because when you try and make a suggestion in the actual ROM posting, it just gets buried in 9999 pages of replies.

No, I didn't ever have a problem with his older roms. But like I said in my last post, I am using NoThrills V3. I love it. It is super fast, but it doesn't have any special addons or anything. Its basically a lite rom.

Type on phone and compact keyboard display numbers

Bug on my virtual phone keyboard and compact qwerty keyboard : impossible to type letters. Only numbers are displayed. My full qwerty keyboard works.
I had install and uninstall many keyboard like PCM, touchpal etc.
Thanks a lot !
Fafou
My case is worst then yours . All three HTC keyboards are numerics only. But the regular WM SIPs works fine.
Anyone got an answer to that?
Have you tried a different rom? might help...
disable the " Turn on one touch" option and it works again.
Got the same bug, and the only fix is to disable this option.
But you can do a soft reset and enable this option again and it should work normal again.
Havent figued out the reason of this bug yet, but i think it has something to do with editing the contacts.
btw, which hardspl version do you use?

I think its a bug on the 1.93 wwe roms, got it on every wwe rom except swifts 5.0. But 5.6 got this bug too.
I get the same problem if i have PCM player keyboard installed.
uninstalled it and a reboot fixes it... but i love PCM keyboard.
I'm on 1.37 Nor btw.
I'm using stock 1.93 ROM. full QWERTY was working for 2 week... till 2 days ago. I have reverse all the tweaks I made for the pass few days and it didn't help.
I think I'll try install a PCM trial and see if that helps.
Keyboard now working is a big issue. I hope HTC will publish a hotfix soon.
Installed PCM... all the HTC SIP still not functioning. But the hell with them... I like PCM better now.
Hope some one finds a fix. I want both PCM keyboard and the orignal ones.

I have found a solution. Change this in the registry:
Code:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e0010409
"Layout Text"="eT9 IME"
"Ime File"="\windows\eT9ime.dll"
HKCR\CLSID\{73AB106C-A726-484b-B610-BE3E1CF39821}
"(Default)"="XT9"

Works after a reboot on diamond :)

Tilt Keyboard Jumbled!

I just recently flashed to Duttty's WM6.1 ROM and love it.
But there is a problem that i found.
The slide out keyboard doesn't work properly.
The normal white keys and Shift keys work fine, but the blue "Fn" keys are jumbled.
For instance, when i press Fn and then try to enter a "!" it shows a "@" or when i try to enter "&" it shows "="
What happened? i've done a hard reset and flashed it all over again and still have the same problem.
Is this a keyboard driver issue?
How can this be resolved?
Thanks.
You have a Tilt.
You need to install the Tilt Keyboard Fix.

Thank you.

T9 Word Suggestion Oddity

Hi all, I've been unable to find a solution to this strange and irritating problem...all I have managed to find is this post describing the same thing.
Basically the phone will suggest words incorrectly and not show the real word you actually want. If you delete it and type the same again though it'll appear as normal. This occurs using both the Phone Keypad and Compact Qwerty.
Secondly the first word in the suggested list is a nonsense word every time though it is at least not selected.
e.g. typing hello on the Phone Keypad displays "gdjjm" before hello or "gello" using the Compact Qwerty.
I first encountered this after installing Dutty's latest ROM even though the change log for that says it's fixed. Today though I installed CT's latest ROM instead which initially had fixed the problem, however suddenly it is back just the same as before. If anyone has any idea what's causing this, or more importantly how to fix it, it'd be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Mik
Anyone got any ideas?
Ive got the exact same problem. Quite annoying.
Im also on dutty's V4.
For example for me, i press 8 then 4 then 3 (to get the word "the") and it will produce something like "vif", which obviously isnt a word, i will delete the three characters and repress 8,4,3 and i will get the word "the" with other alternative suggestions. Happens only sometimes, and i think ive pressed a wrong button, but when i work out the letters, i know ive pressed it correctly.
Any help would be great (maybe this should be posted into dutty's thread)

Im also using dutty v4, and i get stuff like that happening all of the time.
for eg, i type "res" for "rest" and the suggestions are: "residents,bisho" , "Research" , "result" , "rest"
another, if i type "arg" for "argue" the first suggestion is "argumentation" then "argumentative" then "arguement" and there is no argue!!
i mean WTF is residents,bisho? i have never added that to my dictionary in my life!
Someone at Micro**** neads to learn how to spell, or optimize the way the dictionary is utilised.
It is funny, when i had a hermes, it came with windows mobile 5 and there was no problems there!
anyone know how to fix this?
I have the exact same "problem".
I'm not on dutty's, but am using CT's Version 6.4 HD now (used a few other versions of him too) and the problem occurs in all these versions.. Even the original ROM had this problem in my case.
It can be a little annoying so I hope there is a solution for this..

If you add "argue" to your wordlist, it will appear as the first word in the future, it's the best solution at this time imo, but i totally agree with you that a word like "argue" should be in the dictionairy by default.
Cheers!

Just before typing this i have just send my friend the following
"you seduction to come to my place...."
when i was wanting to say "you sed to come to my place...."
i know im abbreviating said to sed, but shurely there is something else in the english language between sed.......&.......seduction!
I've had this on both Duty's and CT's latest ROMs so I wonder if the problem lies with the standard ROM on which they're based?
It's becomming very annoying to write messages as I'm having to type half my words out twice so it finds the right one! Can anyone help in any way?
maybe there is a solution to this problem

I am from Romania (Europe) and I needed a romanianT9 so I installed the EzInput keyboard from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=426281. But I also noticed that I don't have the described problem with the english T9 even if I also use Dutt's v4. I'm not sure if I had this problem before installing EzInput (because I didn't use english T9) but I guess that you guys should give it a try. Here is what you need:
later edit: I've just noticed that the Dutty's v4. already had the EzInput! Anyhow, it might work if you install the latest version of EzInput (wich I attached here).
And another thing crosses my mind: is it possible that the former version of EzInput (wich is included in the Dutty's v4 release) is actually the reason for all these strange behaviour?
cant install, but the uk t9cab did?

I would agree with the fact that it is ezinput causing the issue, can you post a link to the thread instead of the CAB.
many thanks

A solution
I installed the nordic Touch HD keyboard on my diamond from this link:

and it sorts the gibberish first word problem out. I am running Dutty v4
