Hey Guys,
I own an ATT Tilt and the hardware keyboard has been giving me problems. When ever i press the space button it selects the right soft key option and goes into contacts and then starts dial 2547 and god knows what. Basically I can't really use the keyboard, its not just the space bar problem ,there are some other keys which map to wrong options. I have tried changing ROMS but to my dismay nothing seems to have fixed the problem. Can anyone help me here ?
Thanks
This is an old issue and there are many threads that contain the fix. You need the ATT keyboard settings (get Advance Config Tool).

Update:
It was Touch Keyboard and Keypad cab causing it, removed, soft-rest, and it's fixed now.
Hi, I used search and could not find any thread about this. All the sudden my word completion stopped working.
The only changes I can think of is changing PTT button assignments, the 2.xx Home plug in, and the Touch Keyboard and Keypad cab.
I haven't tried removing those apps, and will certainly try that but was wondering if anyone
knows how to fix it if it's not one of those programs causing the problem.
edit:
I have already tired disabling it, then enabling it back under Input settings and soft-reset.
Thanks.
Hi all,
Not sure what I have done here - but since installing and playing with KaiserTweak when I open and email or SMS message it opens from the bottom of the message - meaning I have to scroll back to the top to start reading it. On some short messages all I get is a blank white screen as it has scrolled down past all the text. Soft reset does nothing to help and I can find no option in KaiserTweak that seems to influence it.
Can anyone help - it is slowly driving me mad!
Thanks, Rich
I have the same problem !
Just Open KaserTweak again, search the D-Pad Scroll Navigation setting and Disable it.
That should resolve your problem
cheers!
Excellent - thanks! Worked a charm...

Appears to be a small problem side-effect. In calendar, in agenda view I can no longer go left-right to select the day. Tapping the day on screen also does not change anything.
Tried changing the D-Pad setting back but no luck....still broken.
Anyone got any ideas or suffered the same?

What sort of view are you using (day/week/month/year)? Have you also tried to re-align your screen?
Using AGENDA view, I used to be able to use the D-Pad to go left/right. This no longer works. Screen is aligned and I can select one of the days MTWTFSS but it does not change the agenda view below. If I switch to day mode then I can still not use the D-Pad but pressing the day on screen now works....
Apologies for some reason I had day/week/month/year as sub-menu's of the Agenda View. Duh. Anyway, I see what you mean, possibly a stupid suggestion but have you tried a soft-rest since turning d-pad navigation off?
I, too, used D-Pad navigation at some point, but turned it off again, and I am still able to use the D-pad in agenda view...
yeah - have soft reset several times - makes no difference now if the d-pad is set or not - guess I have upset it somehow but how I do not know - was working fine until I disabled the d-pad in kaisertweak this morning to fix the sms message opening problem....
...I feel a hard reset and re-load coming on
R
Hmmm - turned it on this morning and it is fixed???? WEIRD!! Have nto changed, installed, or moved anything. Was broken yesterday - and working today - go figure???
I fixed it with my mind... your welcome
I'm experiencing this problem as well, but I did not install any version of Kaiser Tools. I'm actually using an HTC Universal, updated with an AKU3.3 ROM (check sig for details). I can't remember when or why it started to do this (opening SMS/E-mail at bottom), but it's driving me nuts.
Does anyone know of a registry key that can be changed, or anything else that I can look at? Please let me know if you have any idea.
Thanks in advance all,

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.

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.
The symbol key on the keyboard doesnt work in Opera... the on screen symbol menu wont come up

anyone know of a registry hack yet? This keyboard popping up is getting on my nerves now

I tried that and could get no virtual keyboard to come up even when I wanted one. Had to change the value back again.
Thought I move the thread to here to see if I will get more help:
Have had the phone for a few weeks and learning lots. All of sudden yesterday when trying to make a calendar entry, the full QWERTY, compact QWERTY, and phone pad can no longer be used to enter text. It's stuck on numeric mode. Tapping the "abc" key on the bottom of the full QWERTY keyboard doesn't change anything. Can still use transcriber and full keyboard for now. BUt when switched to Note program, all entry methods work. Have not installed any new programs lately (besides a few games and new calculator). Have been using S2U2 and Diamond tweaks to help with a few other problems...Help please since this is now my primary calendar and runs my life so need to have this working again!!
I"m using the GSM version with the latest ROM version. The problem also seems to be "periodic" in the sense that everytime I change mode of text entry to something else and back to QWERTY, it lets me enter text, but the moment I change it to numerics, I can't go back unless I change mode of entry again.....Argh.....
I suffer from a similar problem sometimes. Sometimes the keyboard doesn't open at all. I can't type anything. Perhaps it's because of TouchPal, dunno. Gotta reboot the device then ...
Sorry for abusing your thread, but it's a similar problem.7
Have you performed a soft-reset? Did it change anything or have you been suffering from the same problem ... ? Actually a stupid question
Done a soft reset once, and didn't change anything. Like I said it has a mind of its own...when I change the mode of text entry to full keyboard, everything works perfectly so I've been defaulting to that...then when I change from full keyboard to QWERTY, it would bring back the alphabet screen..but the moment I tap the 123 button to change to numeric pad to enter something, I CANNOT go back....I'm unwilling to hard reset for a problem that I have a "work around" on .....hence the post to see if others have similar problem, and HOW THE HECK did it happen???
ya i'm also facing the same problem, but now my COMPACT QWERTY keyboard stopped working completely, it was only taking no's, please suggest solution for this
Thanks in advance
same problem here. a complete reset to factory defaults was the only solution to that problem.
full querty worked normally, but without T9.
compact and phone pad numbers only, equal if i selected ABC or 123. Symbols worked normally
When im typing a txt message and i go back into the bulk of the txt message to change a word, when i press the backspace button half the time the phone records it as me pressing the 'del' button and deletes the stuff AFTER the word, instead ot the word itself. I then have to press fn -> 'del' to get the backspace to work, but only after iv deleted the stuff after the original word.
Does this happen to anyone else? is there a reason it does this?
Weird, but probably simple to fix. have you tried the keyboard cabs for roms ? One is ATT layout for htc roms on att phones and the other is the opposite.
This is Tilt keyboard layout from HTC Roms
This is the HTC keyboard layout for ATT Roms
Download the cab for the correct layout of your keyboard and install
It should completely remap your keyboard.
Im not sure what caused it but hopefully this fixes it
Hope this helps!
EDIT
I just found this link Here which looks likes it may pertain to you
Many thanks mate, appriciate the response! will give them a try!
