Messages open from the bottom?

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

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,

Text input in Opera

Has anyone else noticed a problem with trying to select suggested words in Opera?
The problem occurs when typing a long word into a field in a web form and it comes up with a suggestion. When I tap on the suggestion it accepts it and starts entering the letters into the field, however it also registers it as a tap on the area of the screen behind the suggested word. This then results in the cursor position changing and the later part of the word ends up inserted in the wrong place!
I tried it several times to be sure I was only tapping once. I am running Duttys v1.8 (full) ROM.

yes, this has happened to me the whole time I've had the diamond. I have used several different ROMs but it seems to be a problem in each.
Also the keyboard always defaults to ABC each time you tap in a text box, which is a little weird.
Sorry I can't suggest a solution but I'm interested if anyone else can.

Happens to me as well and is very annoying. Means I gotta use the arows to select words.

Text Display Doesn't Work Right

I have tried searching the forums, but can't find anything about it. When I get a text sometimes and try to reply, the display where the words are showing up that I'm typing is smaller than usual. If I type more than one line, I can't see what I'm typing (and don't know if I'm making mistakes).
I think it usually only happens when I'm replying, though I have noticed it happening during normally opening up the texts. Sorry I'm not as descriptive, I have been using a tilt for about 8 months now (2 separate ones) and haven't really found a rhyme or rhythm to it yet. Is there a fix for this or anybody know what's happening?
Thanks for anything.

I haven't run into this myself at all. Are you speaking of the size of the text input box, or the font size of the text you're typing, or both? What programs do you have installed? Have you tried a soft-reset?

It's happened with every WM6 program I've run, as much as I can remember - ever since the I've had the stringed text messaging. WM6, WM6.1, Dutty's Rom, Laurenitis' rom (did I spell that correctly?).
I've done soft resets as well. I wasn't sure if it was a common thing that I just couldn't find searching. Anybody else run into this?

Sorry, it's the text input box that's the problem and I currently have the official wm6.1 installed. I've got a # of other programs installed:
AE Buttons Plus
Google Maps
MusicID
Opera
Pandora
psShutXP
Skyfire
SlingPlayer mobile
S2u2
I also use gullum diamond keys

If you go to Control Panel, System>Screen, there is an option to set system wide font size. Try increase that.

I have the same problem. It's as if the text input box at the bottom of the threaded SMS 'hides' behind the bar at the bottom where the softkeys are, so you can only see about 40% of the box. Very annoying if you're typing more than one line.
I've tried changing the font size, which doesn't help.
Changing the orientation of the screen doesn't help.
Ending the "SMS/MMS" application and starting it again doesn't help.
A soft reset sometimes helps, but not often.

i've experienced the problem you are describing on some of the recent HyperDragon ROMs by SJ...make no mistake about it, HyperDragon is an EXCELLENT series of ROMs.
for me, ending the sms/mms application and then starting it up again ALWAYS works everytime i've experienced the issue
...and i think it is caused by rapidly closing the hardware keyboard shut (which causes the screen orientation to begin switching back to portrait) right after typing a text reply in a thread and hitting send followed by pressing the hardware OK button (to close the thread and return to the inbox)...threads you open afterwards will then show this "shortened" reply input field. i'm not certain about the above scenario but i think i was doing some or all of those steps in some order just before experiencing the issue whenever i have experienced the issue.

[SOLVED] super annoying long click popup menu problem

hi
i've been having this random problem with a lot or cooked wm6.5 roms, sometimes it happens after 1st or 2nd reboot, other times it happens after a couple days.
The problem is the long click popup menu, it's missing the top most active option, i have this image here as an example from the calendar, but it happens with all applications with the popup menus.
the top option (new appointment) only shows up after pressing some other option, if i click the tools option for ex. it opens the other menu but blank cause it only has one line, so unless i already know the program i dunno what's there...
i notice that it happens after i install some programs, but it happens with diferent ones, sometimes it causes the problem, sometimes it doesn't! so i don't think it's specificly related to a particular program... only way i have to fix it is to hard reset,, which is a pain in the ass... it's soooooo annoying!
It seems like there's another layer of menu on top of the correct one and it's causing the problem, i would like to know if there's any file, a .dll or something that i can substitute to fix/restore the popup menus without having to hard reset.
Thanks in advance

Omg omg omg!!!!
Finally!!! found the culprit of the problem!
it just hit me, i change some things in Advancedconfig, including, ANIMATE MENUS! i usually enable that option when i am setting up things and installing some apps after flashing a new rom... that's why it was eluding me... it worked fine with wm6.1...
wow, what a relief hehe just disabled animate menus and the popup menus returned to normal

How are you able to activate the Compose field?

Hi all,
I had issues with the touchscreen, especially related to the N1 not responding to touches or text typing in the messaging Compose field. And, very often, the send button didn't respond at all.
I did a hard reset and the typing appears to be better, plus the send button now works every time. But, now I can only "activate" the compose field by using the trackball to select and click on it. Then, I can type text using the touchscreen (of course).
I thought that touching inside the compose field brought up the keyboard before, but maybe it never worked and that was really my problem (a misunderstanding of how to open this field). I've not found the answer yet, so perhaps someone can let me know if simply touching inside the compose field works for them?
Thanks much,
Ross
** Additional info - I just found, in the PDF Nexus One instructions, that it says "touch the composition field" to type a message. So, apparently, the hard reset killed this function for mine...

When I was having this problem and it comes and it goes. I simply hit the power button to put the phone to sleep. Then hit it again and unlocked it and the touchscreen worked perfectly. The issue seemed to be ongoing and the fix was irritating but I liked the phone to much to really give up on it. However due to an itch for the Sense UI I have given the Nexus One and have gotten an HTC Lengend and haven't had any of the issues I had on the N1.
