I've installed NullKB, and it appears in the list of available SIPs.
However whenever selecting it, the default keyboard is always shown.
No way to get NullKB.
ROM details at signature. Any ideas?
Always to many erratic problems with SIPs on WM...
i have exactly the same problem. would be grateful for any suggestions.

It seems to be a common problem.
Mine can't be selected too!
NullKB not selectable here
I miss nullkb working. The popup keyboard is annoying me to death. I have the latest nullkb version and I can see the option when I hit the flag, but the keyboard comes up when I select nullkb. Rats! Any hope here folks?
I also have that problem after I opened up a few apps, but null keyboard does work fresh from a soft reset without opening apps first. It would be nice if we can run null keyboard off from start after the soft reset.

When I am typing in the messaging application, I find that many of my key presses are ignored, seeming as though I am not able to spell or use proper punctiation, even though I have actually tapped the correct keys.
My messages might look like the following:
"Thaks fo your message. I was nt able to take the call at th time buI will be avaiable after 6pm. Thanks again!"
This is really annoying. It ONLY happens in the messaging application. I can type an entire document in Word without a single problem but I correct numerous mistakes in emails and text messages in order to avoid looking like a moron to recipients of my messages.
Is there anything I can do to correct this problem? I am using the Black Edition ROM right now and thought that this version fixed the problem. I also Experienced it with the LVSW versions and the other before that. I did not experience it in WM5 at all...

I have the exact error with all the WM6 roms, very very frustrating
I too sometimes get this problem, normally at the start of a text if I start typing quickly. it doesn't happen all the time tho only occasionally. using the lvsw rom at the moment but also had it with the SA WM5 rom
I've got this problem too, but in WM5.
same here on WMXL 0.2
I have noticed this on other WM5 devices but never on the Hermes until now. Is there something that changed in the messaging application that can be changed back to the way it was in WM5...hopefully via a registry edit?

I had this problem but it went away after I selected the option to have word completion only select words after typing six letters. If you have it set to do it after pressing the space bar it seems to cause a delay in typing the text after a key press.
I agree with nmonger, I have alleviated the problem by setting the autocomplete to only suggest after 3 letters (it was set to "a space" before). Also I have made it only suggest 2 words (it was set to 4).
I had this from day 1, it`s just not designed to work that fast...
i hope it`s a driver problem and not keyboard hardware problem.

So far this seems to have solved my problem. Thanks!
I knew it had something to do with the word completion. I set it to suggest 1 word but it keeps suggesting four. I just changed it to after 3 letters and solved my problem. Thank you for pointing that out. Now i don't look drunk when messaging at 11am!
Thank the man above someone else is having this issue as well....trying the word completion trick and seeing what happens.
worked for me - great solutions thanks
BINGO! an obvious solution in hindsight... thanks
cheers for that guys, it was one of those things that had bugged me for a while but not enough for me to look for a fix untill someone else mentioned it.

Worked for me
I was just thinking about how often I had this issue today. I was SURE I was pressing all the keys. I tried turning word completion off and that didn't seem to change anything (strange). I'll give changing it to 6 a try, that makes sense.
I have noticed this problem on the Dash, Blackjack, Universal, and a few other Windows Mobile devices...all WM 5 and newer. This is the first time I have seen a solution. I don't think this worked on any of those devices and that is why I posted. I thought there was going to be a more complicated fix on this phone too!
What really stuns me is the lack of complaining about the skipping issue on other devices, such as those that I mentioned, as I am sure I am not the only one who sees this happening on multiple devices.
I thought it was all down to me being lazy, a bad speller and having thumbs too big for the small keyboard.
Trying the solution and all seems well so far.
thanks a lot, it's working
After updating to WM6 (firstly xda 0.1) then to Vanilla I noticed that when typing on a keyboard I got eg. "tu" when typing "t" or "u"; the same situation with "gj" when typing "g" or "j". I also got the problem of getting wrong symbols (eg. "**" instead of 8). I've got 2 T-Mobile UK version (HERM300) devices, one updated tens of times and the other one oneuntouched. After checking the registry I can say that both are the same as far as know keyboard registry fixes are concerned.
Is it a hardware thing or something I could fix. I searched over the forum, but others had different keyboard issues with their devices.
you could try going into the input options and toggling the predictive text to not kick in till after 4 words have been typed or just disable it. this may be the problem, its set to try right away by default and I see all kinds of wierd errors when it is set like this.
or you could try to go on a vigirous finger diet and excersise routine with the hope that your fingers shrink in size.
or you could use a hip top, the hiptop 2 has the best keyboard IMHO though the herald/kaiser is very nice as well
Unfortunately turning off all the predictive text options doesn't help. I start thinking that this is some kind of hardware issue as everything in the registry is as it is supposed to be. I just wonder how it could happen as it was working flawlessly (even under WM6) and suddently started working weirdly.

I have not come across this problem, this might not work and I doubt it will! but try this keyboard fix cab file for the 8225, you can always remove it with remove programmes if it is a no go.

I was experiencing the same problem and this cab file worked for me. Thanks. Just don't forget to power cycle the device once the cab is installed.
Need some advice. My program menu on my xda keeps whiting out.
On an initial start (or after editing the program list) the program list (or start menu) displays fine.
On the 2nd click some icons start doubling up at the bottom and fill the screen.
The on the 3rd click it goes off the bottom of the screen and goes completely white!
What gives? I've editing the number of items, looking in the registry at start menu opetions, deleting programs, but nothing solves it.
Performance etc not hampered but its really annoying. It MIGHT have started after installing a c++ cube program launcher (not sure).
if anyone has ideas to fix it please let me know.
TIA Sean
Hey I just had that exact same issue earlier. I was editing my \Windows\start Menu\Programs folder and making some adjustments when i noticed it happening. I kinda narrowed it down to being something to do with HButton. I was fiddling with the Hbutton display options just after modifying the programs folder. After more fiddling with the HButton display (changing colour and position) and a soft reset, my Start menu started working fine again and I havent had any problems with it again so far.
Probably nothing at all to do with it but thats what seems to have fixed mine as i didnt touch anything else but HButton and it is now resolved.
hope this helps in some way
[EDIT] completely ignore what I just put above, its just happeed again. The only thing I have done this time is Activesync and install a game. Kinda thinking it has something to do with Activesync now.......
lol oh well i guess i'll have to put up with it for now then. half a mind to send it back to O2 but its a software bug, I'll get the problem on the next phone as well.
Try to see in Memory the program values.
In my experience when tou have few program memory, start and today redrow is very difficult.
It happened me some times ago when i tryed a rom with problems of memory allocation.
You can try another rom (today you have many chose )

Well considering my phone is one a month old I dont think I'll be flashing the rom JUST yet.
And update: for some reason the start menu is back to normal behavior! Absolutely no idea why. Just when i was getting used to it as well.
I have a Desire running HTC Sense, and I have just noticed that the home screen pinch has stopped working. Does anyone have any idea's why this would have stopped working?
The only apps I have installed that I think could effect it are the "Home Switcher" and "HelixLauncher2", but I am currently using the Sense launcher as my current and default one.
Thanks,
Rob
Mine stops working every now and then too (i'll bet you've lost pinch to zoom in google maps and photos too?)
A reboot will sort it out, but my money is on some app i've downloaded that screws with it once opened. I don't have the ones you mentioned.
It happens to me all the time when I switch to Android keyboard to use the speech to text functionality. When I switch back to the original keyboard it works fine.
Press 'Home' when on Main screen, does it work? If so, Looks like it may be a 'Pinch Gesture' issue. If not, A Home replacement App Possibly

Actually, that reminds me that i have swype installed - i'll bet that's what's stopping my pinch to zoom from working. I really don't miss it and would rather have Swype
Rebooting does fix it. I have Swype also so looks like that could be causing it.
My friend and I both have Swype installed and can confirm that this happens to us on a regular basis too.

even if Swype is not active? it effects the pinch to zoom? what do you do to fix it, change the keyboard layout to android one and than the pinch works or even with that sometimes it stays this way?
I have the same issue, with the home screen, photo's and browsing. Happend twice now, just reboot the phone and it's working fine for a while.
I too believe it's something I have downloaded, doesn't bother me that much and I can't be bothered trying to work out which app in might be. Maybe when I'm bored one day I'll have a look through.
I have the same issue when I have swype keybord activated. its intermittant, but annoying. and a re-boot always seems to fix it.
Not the same as I don't have that keyboard installed I do however have Smart keyboard pro.
Do you guys HAVE to reboot to fix it!!! I think just making any other keyboard the default (by press-holding, and selecting input method) would solve it!!
Interesting, because Swype + Desire port to the N1 doesn't have this problem.
I have the same issue, but I don't have swype installed. I have installed the Scandinavian keyboard with support for gestures tough. I have turned off gestures, going to see if that helps.

PK
As far as I can tell, it happens whenever you change input method. So even changing from a 3rd party back to the HTC default will lose it. Reboot always fixes.
Mods, this is a common enough question that it might be worth stickying it? Seen about 5 threads in the last 2 weeks.

Exactly this.
If you change keyboards, just reboot and all pinch functionality will return. Annoying, but I don't change often enough to notice it. If you change and change back, then the pinch functionality remains without a reboot.

Not true on my device! Switching from HTC keyboard to Scandinavian keyboard by long press in any text field definitely breaks pinch-to-zoom (with or without gestures enabled in the Scandinavian keyboard). Switching back to HTC keyboard restores the pinch-to-zoom functionality in all applications.
Rebooting with Scandinavian keyboard enabled will cause pinch-to-zoom to work until a switch to HTC keyboard and back again is performed.
I'm a noob to Android,just got my Desire yesterday. I installed GOOGLES GOGGLES,GOOGLE MAPS and BATTERY WIDGET,and had the same pinch-problem. I uninstalled the apps again,problem solved. Didn't try to reboot though. But I'm glad to hear that the reboot will solve the problem,would be a shame if we couldn't have any apps installed without problems!
I'm getting this weird popup message every time i launch the android stock browser, plus a few random times when i load a page. I'm running latest Oxygen-TEST, see sig for further info. The browser works well, but it's a bit annoying.
Does anybody know why i'm getting this and what it means? I started having this issue after i installed Opera, hard to tell wether this is related to that or not: i uninstalled it but no luck, the popup still appears.
Edit: I attached another screenshot. It seems like the developer console is showing many similar errors, even when the popup doesn't come up. I really have no clue...
Edit2: A full wipe followed by a clean installation didn't help, i'm still getting this popup message.
Adblocking is causing it at a guess.

Thx for the reply
Actually it seems like this fixed itself after a while...after a wipe that didn't help at all i just restored my (bugged) nandroid and the problem disappeared, weird...
