hey ya'll, I was wondering if anyone else is having this issue or if it's just something wrong w/my tilt.
So all the new roms newer than Dutty's apr29 rom (jun 9 dutty, L6-L8, etc) all have this issue where when slide out the keyboard on my tilt, any/all text boxes become blank!
Say I'm in IE or Email, i'll be typing something into the address bar, or the message section of an email, slide out the keyboard, and all the text in any input box becomes blank! It's all still there, however, because when I slide back, the text comes back. it's like it change the font to white (text boxes have a white background).
I tried searching for stuff, and I foudn the idea of disabling xt9 (because I was also getting the weird space bar issue where typed text would be like "an dthe niw ent") -- but I'm on the new L8 light rom (doesn't have diamond keyboard, or xt9 inputs) so I no longer have that issue, plus, there's no xt9 registry on my device now anyway.
anyone have any suggestions? thanks!!
I had the same problem. All I did was disable ClearType and it fixed the problem. Try doing that and see how it goes. Hope this helps!
Try disabling ClearType (Start -> Settings -> System -> Screen -> ClearType).
ah, perfect, thanks!!! any idea why this happens though? just a bug in some roms or wm6.1?
Thanks I was just gonna post this. Dutty's first WM 6.1 rom had no problem but I updated to a new Diamond rom and had the same problem.

Any other ideas?
hi i purchased vito sms chat and have had a problem with the typing in landscape mode, its not there. it doesnt appear in the text box until after it is sent. I had this issue in both wm6 and wm6.1 and have searched it for weeks and havent been able to find a solution, i tried disabling cleartype landscape and many other things but nothing seems to work. Can anyone point me in the right direction or has anyone else experienced this?
Thanks in advance,
Fjc3
I've downloaded and tried the SMS-Chat, I think the problem is not the software but the WM6.1 have issue with displaying typed clear type text in landscape...
Vito's FunContact also does not work when you try to create/edit a contact and entered any text in landscape mode, texts simply would not show up untill you flip your screen back to vertical orientation...
I've sent a message to the tech support at VITO maybe they can give me an answer.
Unless the SMS-Chat have option to disable cleartype in landscape, it is not useable when typing in landscape mode using either QWERT keyboard or onscreen keyboard.

thanks for the reply, lets hope VITO can give us a solution!
I highly doubt Vito can give a solution other than revert back to 6.0 or just turn off cleartype in landscape.
6.1 doesn't allow it in any programs I have used.

I had the same problem with IE in landscape mode. I turned off cleartype and rebooted and it was fixed.

i had to do that for my IE as well but that fix doesn't seem to work for SMS-Chat.
actually i just noticed, oddly enough, if you type with keyboard (landscape) and then close keyboard before sending the message your written text appears in text box and if you slide open again the text will stay but new text will again be invisible... i have all cleartype disabled and cannot think of what the problem may be. maybe the application uses cleartype in landscape on its own???
You guys should try L26's Diamond V9 ROM. I have zero problem with cleartype in landscape mode in any application.

I am actually on L26 v9 coincidentally i have updated roms every time he comes out with a new one since v1 and check for v10 every day lol. I have no problems with other apps both in landscape and in portrait but this one is giving me a hard time tho.
This is serious issue, I have it on my tilt too and I havew l26V9 too... this is ridiculous...
I tried to change HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\ClearTypeSettings key: offonlandscape with no luck, anyone has any idea?
I have Alex's newest ROM, and have no difficulty using Vito SMS chat. I can see the text as I'm typing it in (in landscape mode, of course), and can see all of the messages I've received or sent. It's in cool colors, too!

I installed AT&T's WM6.0 Stock rom on my Tilt and it indeed works perfectly, so does Fun Contacts by Vito.
You can't simply disable cleartype in the system to solve this problem associated with Vito softwares. Why? Because the software itself forces the use of clear-type fonts regardless of system setting in landscape mode.
I've got a response back from VITO support, NO They can't fix this problem unless it is fixed by microsoft in WM6.1

that makes sense, i guess we will have to hope that the cleartype issue gets figured out in a new 6.1 ROM
Is there an alternative for that program?

PocketCM Keyboard is a freeware alternative. But I guess you've paied for Vito SMS Chat right? I would not be satisfied with their answer.
Vito should add an option to enable\disable in their program. Should not be the hardest thing to do.
Voice your concerns on http://www.technologyatplay.com/main-mobile/forums/forum-view.asp?fid=165
Seems its the VITO forum that their developer visit.
looks like this could be the solution to our problem.... i have asked Leo to include it in his next ROM. lets hope he does!
Anyone have any suggestions for this one... I posted it on Google's Forum as well. I have done a bit of searching on XDA also with no luck thus far, thanks!
I have a Tilt with the HTC WWE 6.1 ROM on it, and everytime I use the directions option on Google Maps, I slide the keyboard open, select add new destination, and try to type an address. The cursor will move as I type, but the text cannot be seen... it is as if the font for this particular section goes to white, because the info comes up when I finish typing and go back to the screen to begin routing the directions. This only seems to happen when in landscape on the Tilt, and works fine when in portrait.
Thanks for your help!
use kaiser tweak and disable clear type in landscape

Thanks for the response... used KaiserTweak and changed that setting... still no luck. This started as soon as the update was pushed to my phone. Software related?
Yeah I'm seeing the same problem. I checked the registry and don't see any Google Maps-specific setting that could be changed to fix it.

Thanks as well! If anyone has any other ideas, please let me know. I am not great with the registry hacks, but can follow directions for sure, and would be willing to give anything reasonable a shot.

Same problem with Ie and Google maps
I have the same problem in IE and Google Maps after upgradinf to official HTC Windows mobile 6.1 upgrade. I'm posting this message using Iris Browser and I've not any problem.
Ciao from Italy
also try disabling the cleartype in your phones settings i had this problem also until i did this and it stopped
Turning cleartype off worked for me.
Is there a solution to this that will allow the use of cleartype fonts? Things are really easier to read with cleartype turned on. Any other cooked ROMs out there found a way around this?
Phone: AT&T Tilt
ROM: Duttys Diamond 3.5 V1
Thanks.

I'm seeing this issue since I updated Google Maps today to version 2.2.0.16, but I do not have cleartype enabled.

Yeah, I should have mentioned that in my previous post - the phone's Cleartype settings do not seem to have any effect on Google maps, indicating that it's an additional setting set in google maps. This is on 6.1, not 6.0, and the stock AT&T ROM.
Have Cleartype off in the OS, have the same problem (only in landscape) in Google Maps. Don't have the problem in pocket IE.
The only fix is loading Kaiser Tweak? I thought Advanced Config superseded it but I can't find the setting in there...?
In Advanced Config, click Menu then More Settings (I think it's called), and then click ClearType... There's a checkbox at the top. Good luck.
When I'm trying to use PocketIE and I open up the keyboard (faster to type in)...I'm unable to read the text at the URL line or in the search box...but if I close the keyboard...then everything shows back up...
help?!?
same problem
Ihave the same problem. It is not universal, but it does happen in the google search box and a few other places as well. I had the same problem with a jade dialpad in that all that I saw was the white background and not writing. I am running the official 6.1 rom

Do not enable cleartype in landscape mode in any Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM based on the HTC official, they did changes to the video driver and it not longer works.
Just use Kaisertweak to disable cleartype in landscape mode.

I used Advanced Configuration Tool.
You can get it from:
http://julien.schapman.free.fr/touchxperience/advanced-configuration-tool.php
Install it and run it.
On the bottom right select "Menu"...then "More Settings"...then "ClearType"
Make sure that the "Enable ClearType on screen rotation" is turned OFF.
Click the OK at the BOTTOM LEFT of the screen...Followed by DONE.
It will ask you to soft-reset...select YES.
That's it.
Bah.. I just had my UK Vario III back from repair and it came with 6.1 (which oddly enough is still not available as an official update on the T-mob site). I wondered WTF I'd installed that had broken it :-/
No cleartype in landscape is pretty poor. I might need to think about flash another rom after all!
is it possible to make your phone vibrate on call connect while using the windows default keypad?
i know if i enable the diamond keypad it works.
and also the program "Vibrate On Connect" does not work with the Touch Pro.
I am told it cannot work without the diamond phonepad.
So i'm wondering if anyone can enable it through a .cab file on a non-htc customized 6.5 rom
Have You tried this?
Try Start>Settings>Personal Tab>Phone>Scroll all the way to the right until you see the Advanced tab>Remove the tick from "Vibrate device when connection is established">Click OK until you see your home screen.

That tab doesn't exist in WM6.5 with the default dialer.
The only way I know of is to use s2u2 and set it to answer calls and it has an option to vibrate on connect, but I honestly don't use it because I like the built-in lock app in 6.5.

How do you switch between the Diamond dialer and the Windows default dialer? I can only see the Diamond dialer. If I knew how to switch I would look into it to help you.

Da_G WM6.5 21198 Test 2 ROM has stock dialer. Only HTC based app i've noticed so far is for the camera. You could flash this and check out the fresh new non-htc goodness..

Uh, thats that ROM Im already an using.
that option is there because i used Da_G's kitchen and installed the htc dialer because i thought i would like it, however the 6.5 dialer i like better so i used advanced config to switch back.
and yes i like the 6.5 lock much better as well so s2u2 is not an option.
also i downloaded some kind of green button app or something called vibrate which automatically starts when i boot up however never installed, just ran as a .exe and it does what i want- almost- it vibe's on connect however it is a little late and the vibration is too much and not subtle like the htc diamon dialpad one- if anyone can get the vibrate on connect feature from the diamond dialer it would be apprieciated- also how can i stop this new vibrate.exe from running?
Try this and hope you got the fix.
HKLM\Software\HTC\PHONE\PhoneExtendSetting
"ConnectingVibration" set value to 1 to Enable
0 to Disable in Decimal

didnt notice the word "htc" in that registry key? thats for the diamond dialer. does it not work if you install htc dialer and disable it (switch back to standard wm dialer) using something like diamond tweak? or does the tab with the vibrate option disappear with it?

To return to WM dialer
HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin
set (Enabled) to 0
soft reset
I used Advanced Config v3.3 to revert to the WM 6.5 dialer (which I actually like a lot more than I thought I would), but I also lost the vibrate functionality, which I really enjoy, since where I work my signal fluctuates a lot, and even though I'll show good service on Sprint, it often won't connect, and I'll just hold it in my hand, or put it down on the table and wait for it to actually go to "connected" when I hear/feel the vibrate.
When I go into the Phone options Advanced tab I still have the option to "Vibrate on Connect", but it doesn't work, either checked, or unchecked.
Anyone able to get their phone to vibrate on connect using the WM6.5 dialer?
This isn't a dealbreaker for me, or anything, as I prefer the speedier WM dialer over the delayed HTC dialer (especially when the unit is locked), but it would be nice to get it back.
Vibration on connect
vibration on connect and Slide unlock bugs existent in all cooked ROMs in this forum. I trial all ROMs and found it. If you know the resolves please post it here. thanks
i have the same problem and i would like to know how to fix it ..
thanks all
-Did you try using "Pocket Shield"?, i use it with Da_G 6.5 rom too.
-It's a locking program with amazing options to lock/unlock your device (with light, stylus, slide, gestures)
-AND has the option to vibrate when call connected and is as subtle as de touch pro/diamond dialer. Just a short vibration after the call is engaged.
-Works great for me...
-IT IS NOT FREEWARE though... googleeeeeeee
