i have resco keyboard and have got used to using it w/keyboard not slid out (portrait mode?). it works fine.
today i wanted to type w/real keys. when i type a key, the text and is not visible--cursur moves as if i just hit space bar. all text is blank.
if im in google, for example, the predictive text is unreadable; if i hit "enter" what i typed is visible as a search.
i need to make settings so i can read as i type and see the predictive text..
EDIT ::
actually, if i'm in internet explorer and touch the "menu" on lower right corner, all the text displays blank also--if i touch on a blank area, it responds.
so i guess my display is acting up while in landscape mode..
i hope this is clear..
any help here?
thanx
Tried a soft reset, yet?
might be related to clear type ... seee if disabling it helps. i know in landscape mode that bug has been noted.

If u have flashe a new wm6.1 rom, u could try to disable cleartype in landscape. Thats the common problem. U can do that in advanced config.

Looks like I am a slow typer.
disabling clear type fixed most things..
Except that :: when i'm on google search bar, the problem persists..
as far as i can tell, thats the only thing wrong. it happens if i use
Resco or physical keyboard..
what else can i do?
thanx
edit : disabled clear type from settings.. fixed everything
Now this is driving me mental...pressing on the up, down or left sides of the scroll wheel does exactly what it says on the tin...moves the cursor/page etc up, down or left. But when it comes to moving right, the area to press seems to be so tiny that only the most precise press will actually move the cursor, anything else will close whatever app is open (red phone key or backspace). it is infuriating when trying to select a suggested word to the right only to find that you close the message!
Not sure if there is a way to configure this but has anyone got this problem or found a solution?
For me it's the "red button" wich "disapear"... just like that... when I push on it, it make the right direction (just what you want lol)
A soft reset and it become normal...

Same problem here, when I first seen it I thought it was a hardware fault
Quick soft reset fixes it for me, bloody annoying bug but handy if you need the right key at that particular time
my buttons ae fine, they arent so comfortable but work..
The HTC_IME keyboard thing or whatever its called lol...can u make it so that it doesnt do auto predict when you use the g1's slide out keyboard? It's really annoying and slows up the phone. Ive looked in the setting and nothing works.. can someone help please?
Open the soft keyboard, look in the bottom left corner. There should be a cog-looking thing next to the comma key. Pressing this will take you into a settings screen. Tap "Text Input" and there you are.
Hope I helped.
Hi guys,
So, as the thread says, i am having a problem with screen positioning, its landscape mode and i want it to go portrait mode, BECAUSE i have a damaged X1, some microchip is damaged, and the only buttons working is the turn on button and the camera button, but everything which goes for the touch is working perfectly.
SO, when i start ANDROID system, i always get it in landscape mode, and as none of my buttons work, i cant just "slide out and slide in" the telephone to change the view, so is there any way to change the default starting view ? maybe to change some kind of code or line in settings ?

Yes , it will be, but i tried to repair it, i repairmans told, that this device is unrepairable... So i either throw it away or manage to use android ... Can anyone help ?
On some of the iPad knockoffs running android, they put only the home button on the device, and put software buttons for back and menu in the top right of the screen. Maybe you can find some way to get that?

As for the rotate, when I press the menu button on the home screen, it seems to realise that the keypad is in fact closed and rotate the correct way. So if you can get the menu button up there, then press that on the homescreen and it should rotate to the correct orientation.

You can maybe remap the keys like this:
Camera focus = back
Camera = home
Power = menu
But I don't know how to do it.

Camera focus is already mapped to back button in "Froyo FRG83 - Android 2.2.1 Beta-Release [06-11-2010] from neopeek", but camera is mapped to turn off.
Also with that configuration, how would you turn off your device or put it into standby?
@tads999 calm down dude. Remember that YOU need help, not us. So don't yell at guys that want to help.

Take out the battery to turn off.
Have a timer that enters standby after some minutes if nobody touch it and listen to all working keys so he can exit standby.
And if I would have his X1 I would be pleased if it could run Android.

Sooo I have LG optimus black... And the problem of the phone is screen... Basically when your try to type on the phone on keyboard it presses diffrent button (if i press for exp.. F it will type D (F is to the left of D). It does not do that only on keyboard it does it everywhere ... Its hard to even unlock the screen! So If any of you have any suggestions on what should I do please tell them!
Thanks!
hmm
Tell me something, when did your problem start?
and did you drop the phone in water?
This started happening when I changed the screen not LCD... In my opinion its only the ****ty quality - not original... Ill change it and see what happens...

Isnt it possible to calibrate the screen in the hidden menu? Just google hidden menu p970 or optimus black and a code should pop up. I think there was such an option somewhere in this menu.
