I hear some people almost never use the qwerty keyboard and just use the numkeys with t9 instead.
So, how often do you use your qwerty? Do you use it at all?
I use the keyboard a lot. If I need enter more than one word, I use the qwerty. I write many lines of notes, IM... Now I dont wait until I come to computer and reply to mails imidiately. It's really useful for me.
(Maybe you could make a poll. )
lots
I use mine everyday. Got free sms's every time i load my sim so i type a lot and spam all my m8's hehehe

Thank you, a poll is added. Let the voting begin!
Me. I hate numeric keypad with T9 - vote for keyboard! 1+
I disabled the XT9 garbage (it was so annoying with the qwerty). The keyboard is why i bought the phone.
It's good though having the phone pad for quick input. I used to have a Wizard and hated having to slide the keyboard out every time I needed to input something (I know there's a soft keyboard on PPC but they're far too fiddly!).
One other thing I like about the Wings QWERTY keyboard is that you can access most of the secondary keys by a long press instead of having to press the Fn key first. I thought it only applied to the number section but discovered by accident that it works on all keys with an alphabetical base key.
All I need to do now is work out how to map different function keys - I use '&' a lot but having to press Fn+Sym, then navigate the symbol grid is a pain.
I have same problem. I am spanish and I use spanis characters that can only be found in Symbol screen... and it takes too much time!. Any way to make shortcuts?
****ing Never
I use the Resco Keyboard Pro.
Does Resco Kb Pro works for Smartphones? I have only found it for PPC... and idea where I cand find it? How does it solve the problem?
Thanks indeed!

yeah your'e right need a ****in stylus. sorry went brain dead there.
There should be a way to redefine little blue simbols in keyboard buttons so I cand obtain spanish accent or spanish N instead of, i.e, ; or whatever.
Any other idea?
Thanks for your try, anyway...
sometimes i type fast and then the keyboard cant catch up with me. its really annoying. why cant the stupid processor not keep up with the input?? i also noticed that while im typing fast, some letters are missing.
does this happen to you too??
is there any solution?
I really didn't notice that; I am not very fast typing... my problem is that I can not type with XT9 while I am looking to the screen to ensure that the word choosen is the word that I want to writte... well, I can, but it's a very slow procerss.
This is ehy I like to writte with ABC, but having the option to input spanish characters in a fast mode ...

Is that a special kind that you insert somewhere?
anyone interested in a realy smal (4.5k) app that turns your keyb windoze key into a ctrl key? it doesnt show anything onscreen and you can only close it through a process manager but i find it incredibly useful for going through my irssi tabs in putty.
if anyone is interested il upload it
hellz yeah
that'd be sweet, but only if windows can copy and past with it!
yep thats how i pull links from irc - stil on kaiser atm and opera mini wont let me upload files so ill upload it when im back at pc
here it is - i couldnt get it to work like a real ctrl key (i.e. press and hold then press another key) - instead you gotta first press and release the win key and then press the other key, but it does the job
maybe i'm little slow tonight. . .a few drinks don't help, but where do i put the file? startup?
run it first then copy it to startup
sorry, yea just run it from anywhere and itll hook into the keyboard and turn your windows key into a ctrl key - hope someone finds it useful
This is exactly what I've been hoping for. Thanks for this. Makes copy/paste so much easier!
Does it work with Office Mobile, for example, selecting two or three different cells that are separated in Excel?
yep it works as expected in excel
glad people are finding this useful ^-^
After a quick search, this is EXACTLY what I was looking for! Thanks for sharing!!
Control & Escape Keys on Slide Keyboard
Hi, I just got an HTC FUZE a few weeks ago and I noticed there are no Ctrl or Esc keys on the slide keyboard. I have to hook up with UNIX servers a lot via VPN when I am on the go and these keys are essential in a UNIX session. Can your app be tweaked to possibly map the OK key to Ctrl and the Left Shift key to Esc. This would be extremely useful. I was able to partially solve this by loading the "Happy Tapper" screen keyboard layouts that have Ctrl and Esc keys. But it sure would be much more convenient to use the slide keyboard. Thank you to Doug for sending me the link to this thread.

Not sure where exactly a post like this should go.
Anyway I have been looking all over the place for an application like this
http://www.geekandproud.net/software/keycaps600.php
For a kaiser. More specifically an ATT TILT keyboard layout.
Pretty much what it does is, if you hit the hard keyboard button once it acts normal. If you hit it twice (quickly) it does whatever function + that key would be. And if you press and hold it, it capitalizes the letter for you.
I had this on all my Treos, and it was the best thing ever.
I searched and found one application that says it can do 4 things per key, but after further investigation it seems like you can only map apps to the keys and specific macros made by the dev.
Anyone ever see an application like this for a TILT?

Not sure if it your s/w is different, mines a Vodafone v1615, if you press the Cap button quickly twice the cap light will stay lit and text will be in caps until you press the caps button a 3rd time to cancel it, if that is what your asking?
You are right you can use the fn, caps, and shift keys. However if I am typing anything that has any sort of capitals that are not at the start of words, it slows my typing down a lot. Always moving back to the fucntion key. I can type prolly 1/3 faster on my treo, then on my tytn II.

Get MagiKBLite. You can make your own key assignments. There is a Treo layout included, you can learn how to set up your own by looking at that. I have made a Tilt keyboard assignment layout, if you'd like to try it, then customize as you wish.
Thanks, that looks like exatcly what I was looking for.
Hi all - can anyone explain how to cut & paste text using the keyboard on a HTC TYTNII when typing, similar to Ctrl-C & Ctrl-V in Windows? (eg. SMS messages or emails). It's a pain having to using the stylus.
Thanks
I dont think there is one.

He means the hardware keyboard. No solution AFAIK.
I don't think there is an existing way on the hardware keyboard. And I'm not entirely sure how you would go about doing this, but maybe you could somehow remap one of your lesser used keys on the hardware keyboard (Like the TAB or OK key on mine) to the equivalent of the "ctrl" key on the soft keyboard. I'm sure it is possible, on my NEC Mobilepro 900c running an earlier version of windows CE (About Equivalent to PPC 2003), I found a free program that could remap the hardware keyboard so the arrow keys would be how they are on a normal desktop. I'm sure there's some obscure value in the registry. Well, like I said, I'm just kind of speculating, and none of this stuff may even be correct. Good luck though,
Dave
I downloaded a hex editor and a rom and loaded the rom onto the hex editor.
But that kind of stuff is far above me.
I'm trying to edit the keyboard mapping, i need to switch some keys around.
I have the tilt, i would really like someone experienced to help me with this because my keyboard is basically useless right now, and ill have to buy a new phone if i cant fix it.
is there not a cab file to change from the tilt to the keyboard mapping you require?
The answer is...(drum roll please)..YES!
use the forum search option for "tilt keyboard fix" and you will be pleasantly surprised.
plz remember that unlike your girlfriend search will always be there for you. ;-)

lol i know theres that fix i just wasnt sure if it was tilt to kaiser one he required lol
no its not the keyboard fix i know about that. My issue is unique, i need to remap some of my letters. I'm fairly certain the issue involves modifiying a rom, it doesn't matter which, and to do this i would have to use a hex editor.

what keys do you need to remap and maybe someone will know a fix.
ok my k,n, i m, and period keys are unresponsive. this is a hardware issue, ill explain further if u want. this makes the keyboard quite useless without these keys functioning.
I never use my arrow keys so I would like to map each faulty letter key (K,n,i,n,.) to a corresponding arrow, and maybe the "ok" or "tab" button.
basically when i press left arrow, the letter p would pop up...etc
i would be truly gratified if u guys helped me fix this, because ill get a cheap unbreakable phone if the tilt wont fully work. Its been really frustrating,
how old is your kaiser?
do you have a warranty on it still?
could be easier to have it replaced.
well thats where i mentioned i could go into depth further. I cracked my screen, and replaced it myself. In the process I accidently nicked the side of the ribbon wire connecting the keyboard to the main unit. This resulted in those 5 keys becoming unresponsive.
I got the phone about 6 months ago, but the warranty was voided when i took the phone apart to replace the screen.
AE Button Mapper use google..... "Not AE Button Plus"
ok i downloaded it and got it installed but i have no clue how to use it.
theres some buttons to reassign keys however u have to press the key you want to reassign and that it not possible being that those keys are disconnected.
ok little update, i think the AEK program will work, however the first step is it has to create a chart by logging all the keys. You have to press all the keys individually and it logs them with a four digit number. For example pressing the letter "d" logs key 0044. Once all the keys are logged you can type them up in a text document and mix and match accordingly.
My obstacle is that i cannot press my keys that are unresponsive, for them to be logged. I tried to find a pattern by pressing keys around these and saw nothing that made any sense.
I'm not sure if the numerical values attached are standard for every application in the phone, or specific to the AEK program. I can't find a thread, that would list the value for those letters i can't press.
Does anyone know if there is a chart with all the values assigned to each key of the tilt?
Snowman, give me a link to this AEK program and I'll use it to log all my keys on my tilt, then perhaps we can compare them to what you have and hopefully get the missing codes for you
Moved to General.
Hex Editing a ROM file won't get what you need. I've seen people trying to patch the keyboard driver for this, but no success. Sorry, couldn't be more help .
