Can't use stock keyboard in search here! - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Every time I attempt to do a search in this forum, the keyboard dissappears as soon as I type the 1st letter. All attempts give same rrsults. This also happening on an MB forum I use. I'm on Paul's Froyo with Cyanogen's root patch. Any ideas?

I posted about this a while ago. I'm on stock. As I recall nobody was interested but good luck to you

Nice!
What's the dillio? I thought ppl may know how to help...com'on people! Pls help!

HTC Home (Touch) shell32.exe error

Hi!
I just installed "HTC Touch Home Plugin" onto my Herald. It creates an empty area in the home screen and shell32.exe crashes all the time.
I updated my device to WM6 using:
HTC_P4350_SVE_4.17.413.2_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship.exe
and i installed the touch plugin using:
HTC_Touch_Home_Plugin.cab (1,46MB)
Any ideas why this is happening? I really want the touch plugin and not the SPB one so please dont link to other apps that do "almost" the same thing.
Theres probably 3-4 topics on the top 10 list containing questions and (some) answers to what you seek.
I noticed that you are reltativly new here (me too, somewhat ) so I will give the adwise I have been given and probably a couple thousand other new ones have recieved too....read, read, search, read, and when you feel that you are about to give up, read more.
When I first came to this forum, I wanted everyone with the knowlege I need to come to my rescue ASAP, when I had a problem with something, but thats not the way it works here.
Ofcourse most here are willing to help out, but when the same questions come a million times, then its just tiresome, and no one bothers to answer cause its been answered before.
But I will try a little adwise, if your HTC Home doesnt work, try another one, remove the one you installed, and install another one, maybe make some changes to some of the files after you have installed. I made (or made a repost) of how to make the homescreen work with your native language OS..

Strange keyboard problems

Hi everyone
Have noticed a couple of strange problems while using the slide out keyboard on my kaiser.
Whenever im typing anything and i press the space key it will sometimes put the space after the first letter of the next word instead of between the two words, so the first letter of the next word is now stuck on the end of the last word! (did my best at describing that!)
And also sometimes when i press the delete key it will delete whats in front instead of whats behind so i then have to press the function key to change it back.
Has anyone else experienced either of these problems?
Regards
Jamzi
Have you even used the SEARCH function?
Are you using a stock or cooked ROM? I'm going to assume you're running a custom ROM, since I've seen this problem being described several times in regard to custom ROMs.
Ig uesst hisi sy ourp roblem...
=> Disable xT9:
http://www.4shared.com/file/36879118/89dc721f/duttythroy_Disable_xt9.html?dirPwdVerified=36a07e05
Hope this helps...
Yes i have used the search function and found nothing thats why im asking, thanks for asking though.
At the moment im using duttys april 29th rom but have noticed on most of the roms ive used apart from the stock one i think.
Thank you for your help i'll give that a try.
Regards
Jamzi
I'm sorry for nagging, but:
If you had read Dutty's Wiki first (link provided in second post Dutty's ROM thread), you would have found:
Q: How do I get back auto complete while typing in the “to” fields or any where else? How do I get rid of xt9? How do I fix my keyboard from typing slow or pausing?
A: Download this file (disable xt9) and install it. Then power the phone off and on.

And using keywords from your original question, I found multiple threads and posts answering your questions. Please use the Google search function, since it seems to be more efficient than the builtin one.
Don't worry, this sermon isn't personally directed to you, but to all those asking already answered questions. I just can't help it sometimes.
If you'll excuse me, I want to get back to my knitting...
No worries mate, i appreciate your help.
Regards
Jamzi
had exactly the same problems as youre describing, was about to ditch duttys rom for a new one ... but i'll try this first
surely this affects more users? oh well i've not seen the topic come up , thanks for the advice trying now
EDIT:
Fixes it fine ta!

Don't hate me....

OK, I have spent the last hour perusing various threads here trying to determine how to flash a new ROM. I know basic questions liek this are discouraged as people feel "the answers are out there". But, there are dozens (if not hundreds) of posts, all with confusing/contradictory information. I've learned enough to believe I understand the hard/soft SPL issues, but still have alot of questions.
Primary question: Is there a single place which is kept updated with a set of clear steps to update the ROM, including SPL, radio, ROM, and whatever else may be needed? Ideally this would be the most robust/reliable version of these things currently available.
Secondary questions are:
1. If I install a new ROM will I need to re-install of the current programs running on the phone (like SPB pocket plus, Garmin, HTC audio manager, etc)?
2. Should the ROM be flashed before the SPL, after, or it doesn't matter? (Seems llike the HardSPL would be needed first).
3. Is there a place to get the most recent/tested/reliable versions of the SPL, the ROM, and the Radio?
4. Is there a place to decribe the differences between the items in #3 above, and to make recommendations as to whcih to choose? (I simply need a reliable version which runs WM 6.1, and ideally which would allow configuration of the controls on the side of the Tilt - or even just disable all of them.)
Thanks.
1) yes
2) spl first, one time only.
3) Kaiser Rom section
4) I used q-mobile 1.2 b/c nothing was as fast and stable (mostly fast) as that wm 6 rom. If you have time, it is always best to experiment and find out which is best for you.

OK, a few more hours down the road -- I flashed the HardSPL (Kaiser-HardSPLv1.zip) with no problems. I found DUtty's Diamond ROM RUU Signed and have that ready to flash, but first ---- will this be OK on the Tilt? Will I need to fix the keyboard afterwards?

come on man, if you can't find these answers on this site, you might not be ready to flash roms.. there are literally 100s of posts and 95% of the time any question you have has already been answered, especially when you know the name of a program is "tilt keyboard fix" that you will need it to "fix your tilt keyboard"... and naming you thread "don't hate me" pretty much eliminates any future help this thread will be unless for some reason another noob searches for the word "don't" or "hate"... Don't be afraid to ask questions if you see that it's something that hasn't already been answered.
I'm obviously not ready to flash ROM's -- that is why I ask these questions - to get ready.
The fact that there are hundreds of posts is the problem.
If there is a post that answers my specific question, please point me to it:
"If I use the Duffy Diamond ROM, will I need to use the Tilt Keyboard fix"?
P.S. Spending your time to not answer the question is kindof a waste, right? If you don't want to answer, go do something more productive.

nope, it is a continuing effort to discourage people from starting redundant threads, very productive.

** This is NOT intended as a flame **
Look, here's the deal... Everybody understands that there are hundreds of dead-end/useless threads that exist in the Kaiser sections (thousands when you count the rest of the site).
The unfortunate fact of the matter is that until junior members learn to start searching for the answer to their question before creating new threads, the search function built-in to the site will continue to be polluted with conflicting information.
This site is not designed for people who are not willing to do any work for themselves. You do NOT appear to be one of these people since you have done some reading.
So in closing,
Read the Kaiser Wiki, read the "**BEFORE YOU POST START HERE** FAQ, Wiki, Stickies & Tutorials - Suggestions Welcome!" thread, and most importantly, once you are ready to flash your first ROM, read the entire thread for the ROM before downloading and flashing.
That last part can be daunting for Dutty's ROMs since they are arguably the most popular on the site, but it is a necessity.
Thanks to those with useful answers, I was able to get everything working.
To Dutty, I need to apologize as my older eyes interpreted the screen as Duffy. I have learned now, and I appreciate your work in providing the ROM's.
Believe me, I spent alot of time (all day today actually) reading through stuff. The simple fact is there is too much stuff, it is too scattered, and there are several possible starting points.
For future reference, the best single reference point (for me anyway) was:

Speed Up Your Keyboard (Fixes Lag On Hardware Keyboard)
Another one of those fancy things search would have found.
yea i used it but i didnt find anything..thnx guys it helps alot..but its still a bit off lol..or maybe its just me
If you take your time reading the WIKI and FAQ, it'll be there ..
You know I've installed this and still encountered issues like what he is mentioning.
This file has fixed the issue of weird spacing when typing (such as "I love you" looking like "Il ovey ou" which was extremely frustrating), I've still had the general overall WM "Lag" of when typing, I'm going much faster than the phone can apparently handle, and I just have to wait a second for it to catch up. It will catch up correctly unless I've made typos, but yea I think he is talking about a legit issues that the RR Speed Increase doesn't fix on all roms.
Jason
Mine used to do what you are describing, I would get 3 to 4 words ahead of what the screen showed and would have to stop and wait on it to catch up to check for misspelled words.
The way I fixed it on my device was to go to settings/input/word completion and uncheck suggest words when entering text. Since I have taken the word suggestion off I have not had a problem. It keeps up with me just fine now.
thanks boss1234! I was having this same exact problem, and I did try the lag fix as per the other thread and was still encountering the laginiess. Turns out it was caused by the word completion. Unchecked it and now it will actually keep up with me.

Disable T9 ..... search for the cab to make it easy. ALSO , HTC's ez input keyboard also causes many of the lagging issues. All of this has been covered so many times that its annoying to have to answer this for the 10th time. Everyone here is right. Read..... its here.
The little button on the top of your screen brings up a GOOGLE search window. All i typed was " Keyboard Lag Kaiser" and look at allllll these results.
This was so hard
It took me more time to write this post in fact...........

You dont have to be a jerk..as a matter of fact if it annoyed u or erked u tat much..you should have ignored it.
Another case of search before you create a new post. Closing thread as this one is obviously turning nasty and we definitely don't need that...

Can someone look this over, 1st time flashing etc..

Hi, Okay, I have read and read and read and I have finally come up with what it is that I want to do now. I may do more in the future. Now I just need to get my phone to work because I am moving and need to use it driving. I started looking for the MSVC 1.6. Finally got directed to SEX R5.0. After reading all of that I see that there is a CAB for the MSVC 1.6. It said that if I downloaded that that it would also activate the file so that it would work.
So, my question is this, I copied this link, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431218
to use as my tutorial to flash the phone. If I do this first and then download this one, the bluetooth cab http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=588882
Will I be all set to go with the voice command software? That is as simple as I want right now. I have to get it working within the next two days.
Please if anyone can help???
That made no sense at all. Voice Command is just an app. Just get a CAB and install it like you would anything else
