Suddenly can't change input methode anymore

I can't choose my input method anymore. I selected the normal keyboard, and when I click te small arrow to select another method the keyboard just dissapears.
The only way to change it now is to use the program SipChange I found on this board but I would like to know how I can enable the "quick" switching again.
I looked into HKCU\ControlPanel\Sip\AllowChange and the value is "1"
I really don't want to hard-reset because I just spend a whole afternoon configuring my Diamond and installing apps

Good news is that it is definitely a registry issue. I had the same (arrow should activate HTC custom thumb sized menu of SIPs, but does nothing) and a simple registry restore (spb Backup) fixed it. So, no idea what registry key the issue was (also checked AllowChange first) but it's there somewhere...
Not sure what caused it tho; installed TouchPal several tiems, but when I reinstalled after fix it was all good so can't blame TouchPal just yet...

Yeah I don't have a registry backup
For now I'm using sip changer but it's not very easy so I hope I can get it fixed without hard-reset

Anyone? It's starting to get very annoying working like this

This just happend to me too One minute it worked, then it dident.
Anyone have a fix yet?

Don't believe I've changed much on my phone since it was last working correctly.

How to setup keyboard?

I really don't understand because of all the screen shots I have seen but today I got my diamond and I only have the double keyed keybord ,but I want the full,usally in the screens shots there is a boten that you press and it changes the keybord.But i don't have it,so I went to settings keyboard and tried changing it to full qwerty,but no luck,can anyone help?

There should be a triangular looking icon next to the keyboard icon when you are in texting/email/document/etc mode. You click that icon, then a list pops up for you to select the input method.
I'd like to think that you've looked through the included instruction manual...

Thanks man,a minute after a posted this thread a have read the manual ,so Im embarrassed to say sorry for posting this

same problem...

Might not work.. but just a suggestion, try it out if you have the time.
Recalibrate the screen.
Start - Settings - System
Screen
It's a long shot.. but hey.. you never know what might work.

tried that...
Hi LordRaj...
I tried that, but still no luck...
If I go to Start > Settings > Input, then I can see the list of keyboards. No matter which one I select it *always* puts it back to "keyboard".
not sure why, i'm using standard ROM that came with the phone.
help!

I have the same problem and there's another thread on this subject. There seems to be a few people now with this but no solution yet. If you look on the other thread, there is a utility called SIPChange which will allow you to make sure you get the "right" keyboard you want as default but in terms of selecting from the little arrow, forget it (until someone can work out which registry entries are causing this).

Hi Gary,
Thanks for the reply...
I have been trying to figure it out all day...

Hi Gents, did anyone get this to work, I have also tried sipchange with the same results, it won't stick to any other keyboard other than diamond or builtin

when you say it won't stick, do you mean it changes back after a soft reset? I had that trouble with my current ROM but sipchange fixed it. try increasing the loading delay in sipchange.
I use TouchPal now which sets itself as default just fine - and I can't imagine needing any other keyboard again!

Thanks Davey101, tried the default 10secs, then 20secs and it did not work, after your advice I switched to 30sec and softReset, then 40sec the same affect.
Then I remembered in my Apache their was always a sipchange shortcut in Startup and when I checked the Diamond their was none, so I created one with the Set parm as my Apache, softreset and I am good to go.

Help with my Tilt? ... please?

Okay... Soooo today has been spent downloading stuff for my tilt.
-I had the HTC customizer thing, and the htc today.. thing. whatever.
I downloaded;
-Diamond on screen keyboard.. (Which is awesome.... because i hated sliding out my phone to put in seven numbers to call. and it's an awesome keyboard.).
-Some games..
-The kaiser tweak thing, and the updates?, I wasn't really sure what I was
doing with that.. because it doesn't seem to work?
-The keyboard fix.. which fixed my D-K keys.. but not the weird spacing problem I have. (When I'm done typing a word, I press space and then type the next, but it does this. "heyw hata re youd oing?"... Am I just typing too fast? anyways.. it's annoying the crap outta me. Plus I look stupid when I send that.)
Okay... so I need help fixing that.... and my auto word suggestion thing doesn't work. and it's driving me mad. Also help on using the update things for the kaiser tweaks would help.. because I though it was supposed to fix the auto word thing.. but there aren't any options for it?

Come on, please?

Wow people replying in less than 10 minutes must frustrate the hell out of you.

So did you run the cab file?
It's funny because this problem came up in a thread last week, I thought I was bad at typing on the phone or something until they talked about the problem, which is a known issue.
BAH, I guess "disable xt9" is too vague, so I will throw you a bone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=392469&highlight=DISABLE+XT9+dutty

I disabled xt9 in kaiser tweak, and on all the touch keyboard input options. (I re-installed the diamond keyboards.) and I flixed the spacing problem? I am still trying to fix the auto complete/suggest words problem. Thanks! : )

okay.. and I'm confused as to why you've told me to disable xt9.. isn't that the autocomplete thing? Shouldn't I ENABLE it?... argh.

try this :
start > settings > input > uncheck "auto word complete" and enable auto correct > ok

Okay nothing changes when I do that. (Thanks though!)
Okay, I don't think I'm being very clear. Sorry if that is the case.
I used to have words come up when I type, and it would be a list of words and sentences that I've already typed.. ex; "What are you doing", "What's up", "What", "Where", "Where are you".. and I would have only typed "Wh". Then I could push the up button and select what word/sentence I wanted and it would insert it to my text.
Now all that is gone, and I cannot for the life of me get to to work again.
Thanks again!

Had a similar issue with the messaging, when i type the first letter of a nameit usually pops up the possible namesbut it stopped, it would not pop up with the options of who it was to. i had to either put the whole address or phone # or push the center button and scroll through and select...this really sucked. does it work on yours im just curious?
Well i had to Hard Reset to fix mine, after several hours of f'ing with it.
sorry for the bad news. honestly all the time you spend looking for the answer you could just as easily Hard reset and start all over before you even get 10 replies.
word of advise, always do a backup before you install anything new.

if I do a hard reset will i have to update my rom again?
i know I'll have to install everything again.. bleh. oh well. hmm.. I might do that. Because my phone freezes whenever I try to uninstall that diamond keyboard. BLEH. okay. well. hmm. thanks! : )
And actually no, that feature does not work anymore. WOW. hah. I haven't used it for I while. I always go to the contact then tap send text. I used to use it, I never knew it was there.. then I found it, now it's gone. GR.

Switching to Landscape exits programs?

I seem to be having an issue now and then when I start typing in landscape mode, the phone switches back out to the landscape home screen. I have to switch back to the app while in landscape mode in order for me to continue.
Is there a way to stop this from happening?
Thanks!

thank God i've found someone who has similar problem like me! hopefully someone can guide us how to solve this problem.. many thanks!

I get the same problem, it does it in all different programs.

yeah, but it's odd because it only happens after some time of usage. Once I restart the phone, it seems to be ok again.

Well I must say that's why I've quit using RomeOS' ROM's, I had the same issue but not on the PROVEN ROM so I'll continue to use that one...

I have this problem, too. I'm using the stock att rom. Instead of rebooting to fix, you can just disable and re-enable tf3d.
It's also worth noting that a guy I work with just got a new fuze, and he has this problem as well. He hasn't installed anything on the phone yet, so that proves it's a problem with tf3d.

How i fixed mine...
This happend to my when I tried to install a different
HTCvolumeControl.dll
Maybe your rom has a bad HTCvolumeControl.dll
Try deleting HTCvolumeControl.dll and the rom will re-create after a restart.
If that doesn't work... maybe the rom has a bad HTCvolumeControl.dll

i have the same problem.. and i havent installed anything on my phone yet!

i have the same problem too,(i am running the stock att rom) mine switches back to portrait them back to landscape and back again a couple of time before stopping, i tried restarting a it works fine for a couple of minutes then it happens again, any help will be much appreciated

it has something to do with the customer taskbar icons, i only fixed it after removing sdkcerts, and the custom icons i had.

Thanks for sharing.. Would you mind to explain more detail?.. where is the "sdkcerts" ?

yeah, share information with us =)

I can't believe more people aren't talking about this problem. I deleted HTCvolumeControl.dll with no luck. I also uninstalled sdkcerts and even my custom icons. The problem still comes back. A second guy I work with got a fuze, and his has this problem straight out of the box. So that's 3 that I personally know of.
To clarify, the programs don't actually close, they just lose focus when the keyboard is opened, and then go into the background as the landscape menu comes to the front. Today, I noticed that opera goes to the background when I rotate my phone... the screen turns to landscape, then the task bar shows up, then it kicks back to tf3d.
Another way to test if the problem is happening is to goto the messaging tab, click to create a new message, then just open the keyboard. Sometimes I start typing, and then the phone comes up accepting the keys I'm typing. Then the landscape menu comes up on top of that.
I also changed my registry to disable landscape mode in tf3d. I thought that solved the problem (I didn't miss having the stupid landscape menu), but it still happened, only when I opened the keyboard, the phone came up. If I didn't hit any keys, it would disappear and whatever program I was in would come back. That was only slightly less annoying than before.
The past 2 days, I've been constantly testing to see if the problem was happening (restarting tf3d makes it stop for a while), and it didn't happen for 2 straight days. It started again today, and I hadn't touched my phone since I had last tested for the problem. In between that time, I received 2 emails. I didn't test before I opened the emails, but one had a link that I clicked on, and then the problem happened in Opera when I rotated the phone. So something happened when I either received the email, opened the email, or clicked the link to goto Opera.
I'm sure if we can pinpoint exactly what is causing this problem to start happening after a restart, we can fix it... or figure out some sort of workaround. So to anyone that has this problem, please post as many details as you can about what apps you were running or anything that could help determine the root cause of the problem. Only then can a fix be developed. I'm already digging all over the registry trying to find something to change that would fix this, but it's hard to fix something when you don't know what's causing the problem.
Is this only a fuze problem or are other TPs are experiencing this??

just to confirm im having the same problem on the normal version of the Touch pro (stock ROM)
a little pointer too: When you want to send an sms do the following. Start new sms, open the keyboard. Then WAIT a second (dont start typing immediately). Then start typing.
For some reason this does not seem to exit my messaging. If i start typing immediately it sometimes closes

To remove sdkcerts, download the .cab here http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=67540&d=1201425248

i have a very similar problem that's been driving me crazy!!! on my TP everytime i slide out the keyboard when i have an app open in which i choose to type via the keyboard, my dialer pops up!!! The exact same thing happens as soon as i slide it back away. Very frustrating is the "g" rated way of describing this issue. FYI - even had this problem before any installations on a brand new device fresh out of the box.

yes.. i'm having that dialer problem too.. everytime i open my keyboard even in SMS mode or Opera, my dialer will pop-up.. very annoying...
i've also tried disable TF3D and use normal Today screen, the dialer problem and programs exit problem when opening the keyboard are still happen !!! wtf is wrong with the landscape mode??!! i've tried searching anything can be edited in registry but i'm too afraid i'm going to break my TP or cause me to hard reset
to all experties, pls help us...
p/s: i'm using stock ROM, for all custom made ROM users, do these problems happen to u? ...

Unable To Uninstall

First off, gotta say thanks to all the developers here. Always been one to mess with my phone, but this place has opened me up to a whole new level of customization and editing. I got 2 bricked Tilts from all the attempts at cooking my own roms, but hey ive learned from it.
Anyways, i just got around to flashing a new rom on my current Tilt (last one before finally switching to Touch Pro 2) which i am quite enjoying, and as i always have i went to install gullum diamond keys. Well needless to say it wasn't working this time, so i went to uninstall it after having found HTC EzTouch.
For some reason its just hanging on the uninstall screen even after multiple reboots. I don't really want to hard reset, but i have never removed a program by hand. A push in the right direction would be awesome.
Oh and the rom i installed was Stylez Black v.2 if that changes anything.

Probably as the sip is still running try and change the sip so as you are not using then uninstall.

Tried, still hangs on the uninstall. I know ive uninstalled it before, can't figure out what went wrong this time.
Oh and love the rom by the way Only had to add S2U2 to make it perfect for me.

Been trying for a while now to figure out how to remove this. Tried a secondary uninstall program, tried off my computer, still wont uninstall. I can't reinstall it since you have to uninstall it to reinstall.
I looked at the setup xml file in the cab, and a good few of the registry keys are missing, which is why im guessing it doesn't work. All of the image files are still in the windows folder, but i can't figure out what registry keys to remove to just stop it from running on the device.
Any help would be awesome, i just need to get it off so i can get the new keyboard on it, its the last thing i need to do xD
