TNX tnacar,
Do vgakey is an add-on to Diamond original keyboard or an extra keyboard?
If is an extra keyboard, How do i select it?
In fact, I have Resco Keyboard Pro for Pocket PC (v5.01) BUT, to save internal storage size, I prefer a small add-on patch to the Diamond original keyboad.
Regards
coukou

By leaf through my Diamond manual, I find this E-mail Outlook keyboad (see image bellow).
This is the kind of keyboard I would like to have as my default.
Although I haven't Outlook installed and not plan to install Outlook neither, It is possible to get that keyboard as my Diamond keyboad default?
I'll appreciate any help

Keyboard?

Anyone have any issues with the keyboard on the diamond? I see everyone say its alright but how good is it compared to other phones?

I've used the Diamond and the iPhone and I must say the Diamond's soft-keyboard is much better than the iPhone's. I'm only talking about the Full Qwerty keyboard though.
The Diamond's keyboard can interpret which key you meant to press if you accidentally hit multiple ones by judging the pressure you used. It also has multiple values on the same key, so you can hold "Q" for example and get "1", this removes the need to constantly switch keyboards to input numbers or punctuation.

Try to use touchpal keyboard, it's fine.

help!
oryt?..
jus upgraded my rom on my htc touch diamond
but the keyboards have been scrambled, there is no qwerty, no keyboard and no phone keypad inpuit methods, just a retro small keyboard difficult to use,
any ideas on how to get the old keyboards back?

The Diamond onscreen keyboard is very usable. I was used to the Hermes keyboard and I thought I would struggle with the onscreen keyboard. But I soon find myself liking the onscreen keyboard. One nice feature is the way it is layout and I rarely need to swtich between letters and numbers modes.

Get MS keyboard back in WM 6.5

The HTC keyboards don't have a "Ctrl" key so I can't copy or paste in some programs - how can I get the default MS keyboard back?

Has it ever had a Ctrl key?
Cheers, Rob.

Yes it has a Ctrl-key.
I want the keyboard also back

I have searched a long time for this, tried many regedits but never succeeded. Your best option is to pay for Resco Keyboard Pro.

TouchPal keyboard also has copy and paste functions.

Hey guys, I was looking for the MS keyboard too! I cant copy/cut paste or Ctrl z anymore with the HTC qwerty.

The free Finger Keyboard 2.1 has copy and paste facilities: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=501122.
Make sure you install the WVGA version.

Iphone like keyboard (HTC Topaz)?
I am looking for a keyboard that works well with fat fingers the iphone board is so much better then the one I have on my TOPAZ

To get MS keyboard, I do this:
Modify this registry first:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{42429667-ae04-11d0-a4f8-00aa00a749b9}\IsSIPInputMethod]
"Default"="1" (by default it is "0")
Then install this program in phone memory:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=414422
Then modify the registry as follows:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HtcExtFun]
"StylusOutSipName"="Keyboard"
"StylusInSipName"="Touch Input"
Finally restart.
This way, when stylus is in, it will switch to HTC's Touch Input (Full, Compact or Phone pad depending on your last selection) then when you take out the stylus it will switch to the MS Keyboard.

Why use a keyboard for copy/cut/past?
Here is what I've done...
Install the keys controler from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=555821
Change the behavior of the volume keys:
VOL DOWN :
- single click : default
- double click : Emulate CTRL+C to OS
- long click : Emulate CTRL+X to OS
VOL UP :
- single click : default
- double click : default
- long click : Emultate CTRL+V to OS
And it's working with all the applications....

And I quote:
This is for Topaz only! Do not try to install this on other devices!
Do not ask me to make a version for other device since my remappers are driver dependent and this can be very and very complicated without real device (if possible at all).
Nice one though romualdrichard, But I'd use it if I had a Topaz or a program just like that for my MDAcIV

If you go to Menu>Settings>Personal>Input and from there select "Keyboard" from the drop down menu.
By the way, the gestures will also work on the small buttons.

I know they also work on the small kb, but my point is that I like the layout with the other two options on. The row with numbers is gone so it leaves more space for the letter buttons.
The reason I cant turn on these options is because I'm using Benko's v5.0ROM (6.5) and that ROM has only the Touch Input kb. I think the chef took out the settings from the drop menu. Also there's no input settings in the personal settings, so I cant change the ks settings.

Can I just add MS Keyboard without installing the additional code? I want MS Keyboard whether stylus is in or out.

Use the same procedure, but put "Keyboard" for both registry strings.

Thaks for this....
Also I was thinking to go for WVGA version of http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=501122
Which one will be good for easy????

Can't really give an opinion on that... I always have prefered the MS kb. Other kb's that are finger friendly are the latest HTC kb's. Or the EzInput kb's which is simular to the HTC kb's.

Question concerning the HTC TD2 keyboard

Hey folks,
I'm very, very new to installing new software on my HTC TD2, but I've been browsing a bit around on the web. Looking for a keyboard that actually works with my fingers. I really dislike those QWERTY keyboards, I simply want a 0-9 keyboard with buttons filling up like 50%+ of the screen, like some samsungs have! I just wanna be able to type while I'm walking and such, not always having to depend on my stylus,
I hope you people get what I mean and that someone could help me out
yfrog.com/efnaamloosqp
I crappy image which I've made with paint + touchpad, so don't mind the quality. Just to give an example
Thanks in advance people!

When typing, press the little arrow next to the keyboard icon at the bottom of your screen. Press phonepad

Hi!
Is it possible to install and use the original WM6.5 keyboard and input methods in conjunction with the EzInput 2.1 keyboards from HTC? Now the SIP selector only shows the HTC keyboards.
BTW: I'm using a cooked 6.5 (21891) ROM with manila 2.5.20113626.
Regards,
PK

Figured that one out already, but there are many 'useless' buttons like the: ' | " | and others which fill up way to much of the screen, I'm really looking for something that just mainly shows numbers in a size that makes it very easy to click them!
Just make the link as I posted it in my first post, as I made a little image to show what I mean ^^

The Beta worked for about 14 days, and then the phone started doing some random hangs. and after not being able to type anything in a SMS i changed the keyboard back, and my phone is now normal.
Cool keyboard, but might cause problems....

when the beta stops working you might want to try Perfect Keyboard, and Smart keyboard, they have similar options, except importing SMS into dictionary.

Thanks for it
I will try and see
Sent from my HD2 using XDA Premium App

i can absolutely recommend swiftkey. try it guys.

This looks nice. Will try it out...

Go Keyboard problems
1. I use the speech recognition a lot. When I set the Voice Key to 'On main keyboard' I loose the Comma key.
Is there any way I can get both the voice key and the comma key on the main screen?
2. When I use the voice recognition (the Voice Recognition is great, 90% or better) but if I try to edit the phrase it shows because a letter is incorrect. I put the cursor to the right of the letter and hit backspace or space and it pastes the whole phrase in again in the middle of the phrase I am trying to edit. Any idea how to avoid this?
I really like Go Keyboard, but these 2 things are driving me nuts.
Regards,
Mark
