Hi All,
I would like to know if there is a way to calibrate the touch of optimus black? I sometime feel that the touch is not very accurate. Please help.
Also, I have rooted my phone and wanted to know on how can i replace the default keyboard to another better keyboard.
Please help.
Thanks
Don't know about the touch screen but as for the keyboard:
Just download+install a new keyboard from the market. Long press in an input field, select input method and select the new keyboard or go to settings, Language & keyboard and select the new keyboard as input method.
EDIT: my preferred keybaord is Swift Key X
I would also recommend SwiftKey x, it gives you just awesome predictions.
which one is better, swift x or swype?
It depends on your personal preferences. For predictions nothing is better than SwiftKey x in my opinion. I didn't go very well with swipe, but there are many people out there who does. It's another typing experience, not to compare.

Hi All!
I saw on the forum Keyboard and KeyPad from HTC Touch working on Kaiser.
I've found the .CAB with keyboard and keypad and installed it.
The problem is - I get only the full 40-keys keyboard!
The choise between Keyboard and Keypad doesn't change the keyboard's layout.
Could someone please help me?
regards,
Bacownik
try opening the keyboard and keypad when you are in an text input field such as after you select new sms, it should change the one you are wanting
You ARE very very right !!!
Now it is working !!!
Thanks a lot
cheers,
Bacownik

Me too. Thanks
How do I disable the phone style keyboard, and only have the proper 123/qwerty one, in contacts the keyboard changes to the 3 press phone one, but on other apps is the proper wide one?
touch keyboard changes its layout depending on what app you are using i think.
Can't really answer your question though.. lol sorry :O
I'd still like to lock, or remove some screens.
This bothers me too. I've tried playing with all the various XT9 options.
It would also be nice to have the HTC Touch keyboard work in landscape mode with out having to slide out the keyboard
is there any way to ALWAYS use the touch keyboard? no sometimes the touchkeyboard and sometimes the touch T9 keyboard?
bothers me too... I want to use the keyboard that I can see when there is nothing to type... but the keys are big enough and seperate from each other...

I've gone back to this, even though it is a bit unstable.
Anyone have any issues with the keyboard on the diamond? I see everyone say its alright but how good is it compared to other phones?
I've used the Diamond and the iPhone and I must say the Diamond's soft-keyboard is much better than the iPhone's. I'm only talking about the Full Qwerty keyboard though.
The Diamond's keyboard can interpret which key you meant to press if you accidentally hit multiple ones by judging the pressure you used. It also has multiple values on the same key, so you can hold "Q" for example and get "1", this removes the need to constantly switch keyboards to input numbers or punctuation.
Try to use touchpal keyboard, it's fine.
help!
oryt?..
jus upgraded my rom on my htc touch diamond
but the keyboards have been scrambled, there is no qwerty, no keyboard and no phone keypad inpuit methods, just a retro small keyboard difficult to use,
any ideas on how to get the old keyboards back?

The Diamond onscreen keyboard is very usable. I was used to the Hermes keyboard and I thought I would struggle with the onscreen keyboard. But I soon find myself liking the onscreen keyboard. One nice feature is the way it is layout and I rarely need to swtich between letters and numbers modes.
Anyone know of a list of available keyboard apps? Haven't been able to find much on the forum.
Thanks and sorry for the noob question.
Here's a few I can really recommend...
1. Touchpal: http://www.cootek.com/intro.aspx
2. Resco Keyboard Pro: http://www.resco.net/pocketpc/keyboard/
3. PocketCM Keyboard: http://www.pocketcm.com/keyboard2.php
Hopefully people can add more to the list but these 3 are my favorites... Touchpal is the best imo and it's the one I use the most...
I'm really starting to like PocketCM Keyboard. It's quick and unobtrusive and has pretty good spelling correction.
What about Phone-pad T9 keyboards? Touchpal is seriously lacking when it comes to the phonepad layout; its so fiddly and buttons are way too small still. All my HTC SIPs are broken since installing the Softbank Keytouch (Japanese) SIP, and i am desparate to find another T9 solution.
Every T9 keyboard i have seen tries to fit too many buttons on the screen, and the space is always an afterthought (tiny little button next to something else). On a regular phone you ONLY need 12 keys to provide text input, maybe 13 to allow you to change input modes. The Keytouch layout is perfect, 12 biiig buttons and 4 tiny buttons down the side for options; but it doesnt have T9 predictive text
Anyone know decent options?
Finger Keyboard works wondefully, see this link, http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=163013&d=1236103349 or search here in xda.
thanks
Here are my findings (keep in mind this is just MY opinion)
- I'm using a HTC Touch Diamond
- I'm using the default orientation, NO LANDSCAPE
Rankings (best to worst):
---------
Touchpal
- largest learning curve
- FASTEST for typing (I'm using the 20 key layout)
- most features (smileys, arrows, macros for web, etc)
- full version costs 12$ (a little steap) but might be worth it, great product
2.) PocketCM and Finger Keyboard TIE
- both are great for FULL qwerty but can't match the speed of touchpal
- had to find skins for both to increase the button size to make it easier to type FAST with thumb(s).
Didn't try the Resco Keyboard Pro
Thanks for the links guys!
Asalam Alaikum
HELLO
I am not a devolper and mostly a free user, BUT IVE MANAGED TO get japanese input/output with iphone skin keyboard (without the gestures and loss of t9 and suggested words).
I use a wwe wm6 rom on a HTC TOUCH DIAMOND *s21ht emobile* I didnt necessairly change the regional setting, i used resco file explorer and registry editor. I DONT USE touchflo but spb mobile shell 3.5
IT ONLY WORKED FOR ME AFTER I RESTORED MY DIAMOND TO FACTORY SETTINGS. if you have any other keyboard, resco, spb keyboard, letsjapanno6, im sure it wont work as well, or wont work at all.

Default_IM_WM5 *Input Method selector-- IMselector*
>>> I WOULD ALSO SUGGEST a soft rest after using IMselector
TO SELECT SKIN, go to happy tapping input options and browse for required vga or qvga skin for portrait and landscape> I WOULD SUGGEST DOING THIS AT THE VERY END after the soft reset
**for those unaware of happy tapping keyboard, it has an ime button which enables the device to switch from jap to eng. NO Need for ctrl shift, shift ctrl or having to deal with small ms keyboard or other keyboards that dont work appropiatetly with japanese input.
** The ugly side: The loss of t9 function and suggested words, requires more space on your device
>>>> I WOULD AVISE THIS keyboard set up if japanese is a main concern in your daily life and/or you have no need to use the commodity of t9 and susggestive word functions.
I would like to thank flinx1 for the ime and sip name fix and A_C for his happytapping keyboard post.
I hope this helps.
Peace
when ever i try to compose a message and when i go to the "to" field the qwerty keyboard turns into the number pad and its really annoying because i want to type in peoples name!??? help. i am running the holicakes rom.
try installing the "hackers keyboard" from the market, its a fairly nice keyboard replacement thats free, see if that one has the same issue
I use it because in wide screen it gives you arrow and other function keys.
warning: it is much uglier than the htc sense keyboard
