How to get rid of the letter suggestion bar?

Hola to everyone
I'm new here, and I most say I have been reading around and it is a great forum . I also got a HTC TyTN II, and installed the HTC Touch Keyboard... it works fine!
However I don't have a clue about how to dissable the bar just on top of the keyboard... it shows up suggesting some words while I am typing but dont know how to handle it...
How to get rid of that letter sugestion bar? Or how does it works? Is there kind of help about that in some thread here?
Thanks in advance for your help...

It's going to be a LONG road if you don't learn to search and read, my friend.

In the interest of good will........
Try looking under settings, input, word completion.

I second what grizley said.
Try looking for a disable xt9 cab. This disables the suggestion above the keyboard.
The suggest as you type is in Input settings.

Hi guys
Thanks,
Sorry if I said something obvious... (Im really getting use of Windows Mobile environment, I used to have a Nokia with symbian) When I posted here it was becuase it was already driving me crazy taping here and there for more than one hour (I like the riddles but...) I had no results. I was trying all kind of things in Imput (the up arrow)>options... but nothing worked to get rid of the suggestion bar, at least not in HTC Touch keyboard. In the TouchPal it was easy, it has its own options to solve this things.
I was trying in Settings>Imput and unchecking word completion, for instance, as suggested here... I also changed the language to mine (spanish) does not work yet, and the HTC Touch keyboard is now kinda frozen: means I push the letters and they do not react (nunbers do). I soft reseted, and the problem is still there. Next step: I will uninstall HTC Keyboard, and then (maybe) install it again. Anyway, Touchpal seems to be a easier and handier keyboard...

HTC Keyboard full QWERTY problem

Hi everyone,
I've tried to search in the forums but I couldn't find it.
It's not a really big issue, but it annoys me a bit..
I found that the HTC keyboard's font looks a bit different after soft resets. The font looks a bit thinner than it is supposed to. (Screenshot attached)
However, after toggling between Compact QWERTY back to Full QWERTY, the problem is gone.
This only happens with some ROMs that I've installed .. now I'm using official 1.93.707.1 WWE .. it used to happen with the elite 3.0 as well.
Has anyone experienced this?

I got the same problem with the 1.93 original dutch rom.
Still no solution here?

The same happens to me with original Vodafone ES ROM (1.93.164.2 ESN)

Noby has a solution for this problem?

Omg WHY does it matter?

I have another very annoying issue with my "Full Qwerty" keyboard : it stays locked on the symbol tab, even after a soft reset, and the "ABC" button does not work anymore. Is there any way to "reset" all the settings of that keyboard (perhaps by deleting some reg keys)? Thanks in advance!

This has happened to me, too. Keen for an answer. Thanks

Aswers like this is just what this community needs....
ontopic:
The font problem occurs when you use a ROM that does not has the Manila plugin. If you do have it you might want to hide and show your keyboard to fix the issue.
I've attached a CAB that makes the font change from Helvetica to Segoeui it should make look your keboard just fine.
It's part of my personal tweaks so don't know where the original came from...

I had exactly the same problem after installing Pocket CM keyboard, I uninstalled it and the problem went away
I dunno if you have it installed though... Just thought I'd mention it...

I've tried the .cab. Thanks for that.. the font now looks close to the original one,..almost..but not the same..
Still looks ok tho, I'm going to use it for the time being.
I think we're heading to the right direction.

Yes, I had. I just uninstalled it and my Full Qwerty SIP is back to normal. Thanks a million for the hint. Now we need to go after Tene and ask him to fix that bug ;-)

All SIP's go back to default SIP.

I've gone through multiple Roms, different versions of hyperdragon III, and different versions of PDAcorner. When I try to select a different keyboard, it loads for a second, then goes back to the default. The only keyboards that work are other defaults, such as Block Recognizer, Letter Recognizer, and Symbol Pad.
SOMETIMES PCM keyboard works, but NEVER has any of the diamond keyboards every worked.
I've even tried SIPchange, but the same thing happens. I assume the same has happened to you guys too? did you ever fix it?
thanks!

Is it just me?
How many of you use the Diamond Keyboard, or keyboard other than the default?

default IM
are you still having the same problem? did you ever try using the default im cab for wm5?
it worked for pcm, but i never tried it with the diamond keyboards.

The default cab is the ticket...it works when everything else fails. I don't even bother with the other stuff now. If the sip won't stick, I just install that cab and select it. A soft reset later and you are good to go.

doesnt work... atleast not with PCMkeyboard. I'll reinstall PCM.
I cant seem to find the raphael and opal keyboard.. but I'm going to keep ssearching lol.. i dont wanna sound like a complete noob!
edit:
sipchange and imSelector did nothing... the only reason I fixed PCMkeyboard was cause uninstalled the old and re installed it.. as far sa the raphael and opal keyboard.. i downloaded something, but im not sure if it was it, so.. could someone kindly link me to the 2 keyboards? lol
thanks.
edit: (5 seconds later)
PCMkeyboard just quit working again, and imSelector and sipchange doenst fix it.
So instead i must ask... what roms are you guys using that support SIPS?

default im selector instructions

1. install the default im wm5 cab above
2. install the opal keyboard you want
3. start > programs > im selector > opal keyboard
4. start > settings > personal > input > opal keyboard
5. soft reset
-----
you may need 2 soft reset twice before it cooperates. if you have your phone password protected, the default keyboard you selected will never show until AFTER you enter the password.
only RARELY do i get a glitch now, and a reset usually fixes the problem.
let us know!

I am in the same boat as you and the only keyboard that I have gotten to work is resco keyboard.....I have same exact problems as you...did you ask SJ about it....

SJ's opal keyboard
im having problems attaching files, but SJ's keyboards can be found here.
apply the default im instructions and a couple of soft resets later, you should be good 2 go.

I played with a Samsung Omnia yesterday, I really liked the keyboard SIP, is it possible to download and get to work on our kaiser's.

not sure...

Swype now available as a CAB

It seems that the awesome keyboard app called Swype has been ripped off the Samsung Omnia II and a CAB has been created to install on winmo WVGA devices.
Info on Swype can be found here: http://www.swypeinc.com/
CAB located here: http://www.mediafire.com/file/ungnttnzmwa/Swype.cab
I installed it on my Imagio and let's just say that I am NOT going back to the regular keyboard anytime soon!!!!!
Enjoy and let me know if anyone finds any issues. I've only used it for about 10 minutes and haven't found anything thus far.

Looks pretty interesting I will have to give it a try later.

That does look pretty freakin' cool.

Just installed it on my Imagio...
WOW loving it thus far...

Top notch works great!

this is really awesome. very impressed with the accuracy so far.
can we make it so the keys pop up like the oem keyboard?

Thanks so much for sharing, this is awesome!

WM noob here -- installed fine but no change. What do i need to do to enable?

had same problem

Did you do a soft-reset?

enabling
No soft reset required. At the bottom of the screen, there's usually that keyboard icon. Just to the right of it is a small arrow. Using the stylus helps for those of is big fingered folks.
Click that arrow and up will pop a menu. Select "Other Input Methods" and then select Swype.
You won't need to do that again, unless you do a soft-reset of the phone at any time.

Ahhh there it is; thx buddy.
Former BB users have stylus "lapses" from time to time....

No problemo.....
us newbies have to stick together.

Best Keyboard I have ever used!
Awesome working great easy to use

I have the vzw tp2. this thread should be in something else since it works on other devices.
also why won't the keyboard stay on swype when you turn off the phone?

thanks its working perfect

Might just be the best app for WM yet!
I was skeptical . . . but now I am hooked! It takes a bit of getting used to, but it REALLY does make typing on a soft-keyboard easy. I don't need no STINKING slideout keyboard!

You can use SIPChange to make Swype be the default keyboard when you do a power off/power on.

This keyboard is ****ing psychic

i also had the default keyboard problem and used SIPChange...
"Apparently this is a bug with WM 6.5. Use the cab SIPChanger to set swype as the default keyboard, this setting will even survive a soft reset ( thank god )
Make sure to set the startup delay thingy to 40 seconds or the program will crash on startup." (quote from Survivalism over at PPC).
He also posted the SIPChange cab on his thread...

I thanked him there and thank everyone here for all the help.
