[Q] Keyboard flicker - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Am I the only one noticing the keyboard flicker when you go to type a message?
It doesn't seem to be every single time the keyboard pops up.
For instance, I just closed the keyboard and tapped the screen to type again and it did not flicker.

Problem with Keyboard when texting

Sometimes when I am trying to text I can only see one line and my phone doesn't allow me to scroll down. If I hit enter I can still only see the one line. Anyone else have this problem?

That will happen occassionally. I think the only way to fix it is by closing and then reopening the messaging app.
I have seen this happen often if you hit a button to launch the messaging app, and then slide the keyboard open (causing screen rotation) while the app is loading. It gets confused and makes the text entry area fall under the bottom button bar.
The answer is to completely close and re-open the messaging app, and always wait until it is fully loaded before sliding the keyboard out.
Another trick is to load the SIP. Touch the keyboard icon on the bottom of the screen and it will push the text input window out.

trackball sensitivity

once upon a time i was a blackberry owner and in the settings I could change the sensitivity to help when selecting text or scrolling. is this possible with a nexus one or with a mod.
The nexus has a touch screen so those uses really aren't necessary.plus you can feel the trackball skip when moving to the next spot and it would be out of sync if it could be changed.

Multi-touch test

Whenever I press a letter on the keyboard, 1 of 2 other letters are pressed and when I try to select an app it sometimes selects an adjacent app instead. I downloaded an app called "Multitouch Test" and it shows clear issues with the screen. The two touch points are suppose to stay green when you're touching the screen but they keep going crazy and changing between blue and green and move all over the screen. Does anyone else have this problem?
Stock v1.1 rooted
Thanks for pointing out the app. Mine seems fine. It shows blue if not moving & green when I move. Really shows how hard it is to hold the finger still! It would be nice to know the size of the contact area. I mean, it would be nice if it showed the exact area that the finger is contacting the screen. Then you could see if it was off by a bit.
Thanks,
kev

Is it plugged in / charging?

Nope. Mine seems ok. I'm running HC.
I tried getting adb to work through usb and while I was checking and unchecking debugging, the multi touch fixed itself. Idk why or how but it works perfectly in multitouch test now.

N7000XXLRK keyboard issue.

I upgraded to this Rom recently and although like the keyboard the little microphone button for voice typing is gone. When I activated voice typing in the settings it says "Press microphone button or drag finger across keyboard." Microphone button doesn't exist and dragging longer across doesn't do anything.
I loved having the little Mic button and the button to activate handwriting recognition on the keyboard.
Anyone know how to at least get the voice typing to work??

Is it just the stock keyboard? If so I am guessing you've checked settings option to enable it?
Maybe you can re-flash the Stock 4.0.3 Keyboard if it is on there, I don't use Stock so not too sure..
Yeh im using the stock keyboard which is actually very nice to use but its missing the little mic button to activate voice typing and the button to activate handwriting recognition.

Figured it out. Long press the settings button and it brings up the additional keyboard features.

Keyboard lag

There is a slight delay switching from the letter keyboard to the numbers and signs keyboard. I would be texting and trying to put a ? But because I am typing to fast it appears as a k instead of a ?
Is anyone else having this problem?

I find the HTC keyboard also a bit laggy. But I switched back to the official paid version of Swype. No lags and better imho.
I tried Swype didn't really like it. Gonna try other keyboards. But the lag is gone from Swype but I don't like how the keyboard has a Swype key where the symbols key suppose to be. Also the vibrate on the Swype key is too intense compared to the HTC keyboard.

I use swift key for typing. Very accurate and better than stock. Don't like the design as much though. Also like it better than swype which I tried out for a bit.

I'm trying to use swift right now which is a lot better the swipe Imo. But I am used to traditional way of inserting symbols and numbers where the numbers were on top and symbols at the bottom two rows. Because I came from iPhone which I've been using for the past 3 years.
But this one gives a number pad with symbols on the right side of the keyboard. But I set so I don't have to hold down as long for symbols which is very good and I might stick to this keyboard. I feel it is a lot better then the stock keyboard. I feel I would be typing a lot faster once I get used to holding down keys for symbols and numbers.
But is there a way to add words to your dictionary? Cause tapping the word on the suggestions doesn't say added to dictionary.
