Keyboard typing wrong characters - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am running the Touch-IT Xperience 14.2 ROM and can't seem to find an answer to the keyboard now acting strange. When I type a Blue key 1, I get a ! symbol and 2 gives me a @ symbol.
Any help in this would be greatly appreciated.

Probably some software you installed. Happened to me with the SE XT9 keyboard.

na, it's not a software he installed. i'm using itje's roms too.
a) you should have posted that in the rom-thread
b) you should have used search. this has been covered many times. it's related to htc's ezput-softkeyboard, which comes cooked in with the rom but messes with hw-keyb. search for the cab "RuschIT Keyboard Fix".
c) you should have used search!

Thanks for the help and I will try out the solution. I did do a lot of searching but couldn't find anything. I spent about 2 hours searching.
I had it in the ROM section for three days and nobody responded to it so I tried here.
Thanks again.

can't change the sip from default keyboard.

I can't seem to change the sip on my device. It always reverts to the default.I have tried using the sip changer cab to no avail. I have searched the forums and can't find a solution. I am running ryncppr v4 by the way. Is it because this white keyboard is cooked into the rom maybe? anyone else having this problem? thx in advance.
A lot of newer ROMs have this issue. The solution for this problem under Dutty's (or anyone else's) ROMs may not work for yours, so please post your question in the thread for your particular ROM as it greatly increases the likelihood of getting a solution.
Search the Hermes forum for "SIP Change" or "SIPChange". It's a simple app that someone developed that ensures your SIP setting sticks. I used it on my Hermes and it also now works on my Kaiser.

The problem with SIP Change is that it does not work 100% of the time with some of the newer WM 6.1 builds. It works for some people with ROM A, and not for other people also running ROM A while following the exact same steps.
Apologies. Wasn't aware of that.
sWuRv - have you tried SIP Change?
No problem. I would also suggest he still try SIP Change since it does work with most ROMs.

Have you tried posting your question in the rom thread?
hey thanks for the quick replies. I have tried using the sip change cab to no avail. I believe the one I am using delays a couple of seconds after windows boots and then changes the sip. is this the same one you guys are referring to or is there another? lemme try extending the delay a bit...

I use the touchpal keyboard and have had to playwith a lot of roms and sIP change and IM selector to get it to work. You want to make the delay 0 first of all. I have had good luck with IM_sip select. Laso if you use the Lock from system disable it during testing. Let me know what happens.

SOLUTION (That worked for me)
Hi all,
I had the same issue and found a solution that worked for me. It was Opera 10 beta 2. Since I installed that I could still change the SIP but after a soft reset the problem appeared.
So I hard reset the device and installed the apps all over again. After installing Opera and restarting (or soft resetting the device) the problem appeared again.
After uninstalling I could change the SIP immidiatly.

Onscreen Keyboards arent working for me?

I have L26 V9 6.1 professional rom...and i am having trouble using third party on screen keyboards. Ive downloaded and installed cootek touchpal, pocketcm keyboard and htc touch qwerty and none of them work. I have installed the sipchanger app also to make the onscreen keyboard stick after a soft reset but i cant even get the keyboard to come on the screen after i instal them succesfully, I go to start > settings input and once i choose the new keyboard, usually in WM 6.0 the keyboard would show up then i would need to use sip changer to make it stick....but when im in input settings the keyboards wont even show up on the screen. I dunno if this is a rom problem and i should post this in the rom section but is their another sip application i can use to make keyboards show up? sip changer isnt working for me but when i used duttys 6.1 apr 29 rom , my keyboards worked so i duunno whats up with the v9 rom......can someone help me figure this out so i can get an on screen keyboard to work...this rom didnt come with another third party app keyboard so i desperatly need another on screen keyboard other then this really small default white one...someone plz help
SIP keyboards
Same thing happenning to me. I have tried different third party .cabs and everything seems fine with the installation, but when I go to select the diamond keyboard nothing happens. Even if I use SIPchanger. It will do nothing.....
I got to work once, but then it stopped again. Some help please.
Holy Crap. What the hell!?
Seriously guys, If you posted this in Leo's V9 Thread. You would have gotten the answer.
Plus I know for darn sure that there are multiple answers in the v9 thread on how to do it.
You know how long that thread is? how long do we have to keep reading crap just so that we can get a decent answer? Why not just save us the trouble and tell us the answer here?
Well I'll search for it since I'm not lazy... but it would have been better if someone actually responded to this thread with a real answer.

The problem with your theory, is that others may have the same issue in the future. Then, when they go the the rom thread to which the problem pertains, they can't find the answer because it is in a whole other sub-forum instead of being in the rom thread.
If you are having issues with a rom, go to that thread and post your issue. Then when a fix is found, it is in the rom thread for future users to find.
I appreciate your frustration, but it is for the betterment of the community for the problems and fixes to be posted in the rom thread to which they pertain.
Thank you for understanding.

need help virtual keyboard

I've done a a lot of reading and made good progress, but I'm stuck on this one.
I'm using "Ruu_Signed_Duttys_WM6.1_Official_5.2.19209_1_58_16_27 [FIX]" build atm and while it's fast and I like it for the most part, the keyboard is horrible, takes up half the screen is missing keys and I really don't like it. I've tried to get back the original keyboard but it won't all me to switch from the one he has built into the rom. I've uninstalled the pcm keyboard and installing Keyboard_Cert.reg KeyboardSkins.CAB and also SJ KeybSkin_Touch.cab. in several variations. At best I was able to turn the keyboard white with black letters.
How can i get rid of the pcm keyboard and load the defaults.
please help
p.s. How come many of the dutty roms and have a password and they say the password is in the 1st/2nd post but it's not? I read some of those 6 times and searched them for "pass" and never found the password. I found some people listing a password later in the thread, but it was a password that did not work.
Am I writing in the wrong language or something? I've spent at least 20 hours reading wikii and faq's and post after post and seariching with google and the site's built in search only to wind up going in circles, trying to find specific answers, but not getting anywhere.
Would someone please point me to the info or just tell me ?
Still need help
yea this thread should be answered i have having the same problem..
I have Duttys Diamond V1 ROM. I didn't like the default kayboard or the XT9 that guesses what word your trying to type. My ROM did have the original defult keyboard installed but it would not stay my defult keyboard after a soft reset. I'm not sure exactly what you issue is but this might help.
Install "disable XT9" cab to disable XT9
Install "SIP change" cab change the defult kayboard to the one of you choice.
the above can be found here (look for post 139, should be the 4th post down):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398271&page=161
I'm also including:
the "OEM default Keyboard" cab, with I assume installs the OEM keyboard (if you don't have it), and "Tilt keyboard fix" incase you have a Tilt with a hardware keyboard that dosen't have the FN keys coerectly mapped fot the Tilt.
Hope that's what you looking for.
Thanks worked fine only took about 1 min.

What version of .NET do I have?

Colleagues,
I upgraded my Fuze to .NET to 3.5 but when I go to .NET Config I see 2 different numbers. The first line shows: 3.5.7283.0 (ROM). The second line shows: 2.0.7045.0.
Why 2 different numbers and what version of .NET do I have?
Thanks in advance.
Using the search you will find the answer to your question....#Greetz
Boris
You have 2.0, which came with your phone, and 3.5, which you added. Select 3.5 in config -- it's backward compatible.
emesbe,
Thank you for your useful response (as opposed to others').
how exactly do you upgrade the .NET to 3.5. i downloaded it from the microsoft website and it said it wasnt a valid ppc file.
i used the search function (typed .NET and also tried .NET upgrade) i even tried google. anyway basically all i want this for is so i can use the diamond beer app aswell as any other app i might download or create that might need it.
thank you.
There are 2 versions, one for PC (wrong) and one for PPC /mobile (right), you have to choose & install the correct version....

@jdomi99: my answer was intendet to be usefull, but if someone is sitting down and waiting for other people doing his work, it couldnt be usefull. Your question has been answered here for many times, and its boring answering the same question many times only cause some collegues are to lazy to use that great function called "search", where they can easily find answers themselves.
borisku,
If it is boring answering you should have stayed quiet, and don't call me (or anyone) lazy, a forum like this one is for everyone to help everyone else. Do a Search yourself and post the search results here of what I was looking for so you can see that nothing comes close to answering my specific question.
Looks other for me: thats only one example of many

dont mind, thats my last answer to that nice post...

T9 Word Suggestion Oddity

Hi all, I've been unable to find a solution to this strange and irritating problem...all I have managed to find is this post describing the same thing.
Basically the phone will suggest words incorrectly and not show the real word you actually want. If you delete it and type the same again though it'll appear as normal. This occurs using both the Phone Keypad and Compact Qwerty.
Secondly the first word in the suggested list is a nonsense word every time though it is at least not selected.
e.g. typing hello on the Phone Keypad displays "gdjjm" before hello or "gello" using the Compact Qwerty.
I first encountered this after installing Dutty's latest ROM even though the change log for that says it's fixed. Today though I installed CT's latest ROM instead which initially had fixed the problem, however suddenly it is back just the same as before. If anyone has any idea what's causing this, or more importantly how to fix it, it'd be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Mik
Anyone got any ideas?
Ive got the exact same problem. Quite annoying.
Im also on dutty's V4.
For example for me, i press 8 then 4 then 3 (to get the word "the") and it will produce something like "vif", which obviously isnt a word, i will delete the three characters and repress 8,4,3 and i will get the word "the" with other alternative suggestions. Happens only sometimes, and i think ive pressed a wrong button, but when i work out the letters, i know ive pressed it correctly.
Any help would be great (maybe this should be posted into dutty's thread)

Im also using dutty v4, and i get stuff like that happening all of the time.
for eg, i type "res" for "rest" and the suggestions are: "residents,bisho" , "Research" , "result" , "rest"
another, if i type "arg" for "argue" the first suggestion is "argumentation" then "argumentative" then "arguement" and there is no argue!!
i mean WTF is residents,bisho? i have never added that to my dictionary in my life!
Someone at Micro**** neads to learn how to spell, or optimize the way the dictionary is utilised.
It is funny, when i had a hermes, it came with windows mobile 5 and there was no problems there!
anyone know how to fix this?
I have the exact same "problem".
I'm not on dutty's, but am using CT's Version 6.4 HD now (used a few other versions of him too) and the problem occurs in all these versions.. Even the original ROM had this problem in my case.
It can be a little annoying so I hope there is a solution for this..

If you add "argue" to your wordlist, it will appear as the first word in the future, it's the best solution at this time imo, but i totally agree with you that a word like "argue" should be in the dictionairy by default.
Cheers!

Just before typing this i have just send my friend the following
"you seduction to come to my place...."
when i was wanting to say "you sed to come to my place...."
i know im abbreviating said to sed, but shurely there is something else in the english language between sed.......&.......seduction!
I've had this on both Duty's and CT's latest ROMs so I wonder if the problem lies with the standard ROM on which they're based?
It's becomming very annoying to write messages as I'm having to type half my words out twice so it finds the right one! Can anyone help in any way?
maybe there is a solution to this problem

I am from Romania (Europe) and I needed a romanianT9 so I installed the EzInput keyboard from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=426281. But I also noticed that I don't have the described problem with the english T9 even if I also use Dutt's v4. I'm not sure if I had this problem before installing EzInput (because I didn't use english T9) but I guess that you guys should give it a try. Here is what you need:
later edit: I've just noticed that the Dutty's v4. already had the EzInput! Anyhow, it might work if you install the latest version of EzInput (wich I attached here).
And another thing crosses my mind: is it possible that the former version of EzInput (wich is included in the Dutty's v4 release) is actually the reason for all these strange behaviour?
cant install, but the uk t9cab did?

I would agree with the fact that it is ezinput causing the issue, can you post a link to the thread instead of the CAB.
many thanks
