Address autocomplete issue

For the life of me, I can't get this to work since upgrading to WM6 (Black Edition 2.0). Whenever sending a text or email, nothing comes up in the To field when typing. I've already tried searching. Any ideas?

A long shot since you come from US... but even though... have you somewhat changed any of these reg entries in order to change your keyboard mapping - in case, change them back to what it was:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload\1]
edit: and you have checked 'Suggest words when entering text' under Settings -> Input -> Word Completion ?

Yes, I have. I'll give it a shot.

That did the trick. Thank you very much!

Keyb mapping ok + autocomplete
Thanks!
It works so the only tweak to do is (read from wiki) :
Modification to keyboard hack. The above solution does not work for the Hermes the following new settings are required.
Goto the following registry entry
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty]There is a key called 'Layout' and it is in Decimal.
The default value of English ROM is 20409, and Chinese ROM is 20404 (both are in hexadecimal).
The suitable value for German Hermes keyboard is 20407 (132103 in decimal).
The suitable value for Spanish Hermes keyboard is 2040a (132106 in decimal).
Probably Hermes use 20+country ID (409=WWE, 407=German, 404=Trad. Chinese, etc...) format for keyboard layout value.

Small problem-Keypad characters are off...

I was just wondering if anyone was having the same issue. I upgraded to CRC's 6.1(Which I love, by the way. Thank you.). When I go to type text all my number and letters work correctly, but the characters are off. For example, I have to press the 2 to get a question mark, when it should be the @ sign. Any suggestions?

Use Advanced Config and change ur keyboard layout

To elabrate a little further....
Settings/System/Advanced Config. go down to keyboard layout, change there. If you're on AT&T change to Cingular. If Advanced Config isn't there, search WIKI Hermes section for keyboard layout. I'm on my PDA right now so I can't give you the exact reg key. This is a very common question, search and you'll find the answer you're looking for

Was this the correct ROM to use for the Cingular 8525? I tried about 3 different regestry tweaks and none of them worked. I looked at another phone and realized that the symbols are in different places than on my phone, and are in the place that my phone thinks they are. i.e on the other phone the @ is on the q, the ? is on the e, but on my phone it's supposed to be the ~ on the q and the @ on the e, but when I press it I get the former. Please help!!

did you try this here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Registry
Different keyboard layouts for different Hermes versions
Issue: When applying a non-cingular ROM to an 8525 its default keyboard is different than the 8525.
The Fix:
[HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\Qwerty]
"Layout"=263177 (decimal)

Thank you very much.

Help - no HTC keyboard (after word complete fix)

Hey everyone,
I have an issue,
After fixing the word autocomplete on my TP2 i no longer have the HTC keyboard, instead a weird one comes up with a number pad, and brackets ont eh left and .,PW and some other symbols ont he right hand side.
This has happened after changing the following

Simply change these two registry keys under:
HKLM\system\currentcontrolset\control\layouts\e 0010409
Ime File : \windows\xt9ime.dll change to Ime File :\windows\compime.dll
and
Layout Text : XT9 IME change to Layout Text : COMP IME
And soft reset.
Mine had et9 instead of xt9, and i confirmed that if i change it back i get the htc keyboard, however i loose word complete on the hardware keyboard.
I want both though! i hope one of you smart guys out there can help me out!
This is really annoying.

bump.
anyone?
i want this back!

Touch Input problem

occasionally the built in keyboard shows me a different than expected keyboard. For example, durring txt messages, it would show the phone keypad "with the 1-9, P, w keys" or it would show the internet one "with .com button". I tryed looking through the registry for it, but its a mess tryn to find the key that was changed. i have the touch input v2.0 (build 35555) on the AT&T rom.
If anyone else has had this problem and knows how to solve it, the help would be amazing.
p.s. on my previous phone, I had the VITO Zoomboard, but i like the way this new keyboard is in how it changes..but not when it changes to something that isn't appropriate for the given event

Did you install the classic word completion or word correction cab? If so,

When enabling Classic Word Correction, Opera users may experience an issue in which the soft keyboard gets stuck in web or numeric mode. To avoid/correct this, click on the web page instead of the address bar before exiting Opera.

I installed the disable xt9 file which changes registry values?
Just now I used the resco registry explorer to extract my reg files and found which keys changed:
=== normal keyboard ===
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\Ime]
"CurrentET9Style"=dword:00000000
=== web keyboard ===
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\Ime]
"CurrentET9Style"=dword:00000006
=== numeric keypad ===
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\Ime]
"CurrentET9Style"=dword:00000006
now I gata find a program which will make an exe or lnk to change that value of the reg

I have the exact same issue. The phone seems to get stuck on the number keypad with the W and P and will not go back to the full qwerty.
Soft resets do nothing to reset keyboard. I did the following edits to get word suggestion:
Go to: HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\layouts\e001 0409
Edit: Ime File = \Windows\compime.dll
Layout Text = COMP IME
Go to: HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9
Edit: XT9SupportMSSip= 0
Otherwise I have done no registry edits except removing proxy info for Opera to get it to work on Rogers.
This is most annoying so any suggestions or help would be appreciated.
I have tried using opera page before exiting but it still comes up as a number pad.

Applies to any HTC Touch Input 2.0 keyboard

Thanks for this ... you really helped me save a lot of time!

I find that it will also flip to this input style when trying to add a contact. Once it does this I then have to go and start opera, touch the address bar and the input changes back to qwerty. Then I can exit opera. Its kind of a pain but at least I know of the work around.

thanks for the opera info - I did not install any completion cab, but this did fix my keyboard issue.

I just got this problem today. I have yet to be able to change it back.
I can tell you that this occurred in the Windows Edit Contacts menu (that is to say, go to HTC's "Edit Contacts" and select "More").
At first it gave me a simple numbers and arrow keys only keypad. I soft reset and it changed nothing. I then decided to retrace my steps to try to fix it, so I went back to the edit contacts screen and fiddled around, very shortly it switched to the keyboard as described by the OP. Numeric keys, parenthesis, a 'P' and a 'W', etc... stuff used in phone numbers, I suppose. I haven't been able to get it back to a full keyboard, yet. I've messed around with the keyboard options, switched to and back from other keyboard choices and got nothing.
Anyone else want to investigate this further with us?

Same problem for me, so I did the Opera method.
It definitely originated (for me) in "edit contacts".
I used the stock Opera (9?). I did try to just tap the google search bar with no luck.
Just click on the address bar after you start the browser and it will allow you to switch.

[SOLVED] How to turn on Word Completion for Full QWERTY keyboard

Hi guys!
I'm trying to turn on Word Completion for the full QWERTY keyboard, but I cannot find how to. I know that you can toggle Word Completion through Personal => Input => Options, but only for XT9 and the Compact QWERTY. I would like to enable it for the full QWERTY.
Does anybody know how?
Thanks for any help in advance!
Kind regards,
Piet

I'd very much like to know how to do that as well. Tried in the past, but it didn't seem possible via the standard settings.

I found the answer myself!
I found the answer myself! The trick is to change 2 registry keys.
Change these two registry keys under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\ Control\Layouts\e0010409
- Change the value of Ime File from \windows\eT9ime.dll to \windows\compime.dll
- Change the value of Layout Text from ET9 IME to COMP IME
Perform a soft reset and you wil now see that word completion works in the default language of your device.
You could replace the dictionary used (\Windows\Mssp2.lex) by one of your preferred language to change this.
For the Dutch users I have attached a CAB file which does this all for you. This is for WWE devices and you end up with Dutch Word Completion only.
Kind regards,
Piet

On my device I can turn it on whenever I want by bringing up the on-screen keyboard then hiding it. It is only temporary, and works until I close the keyboard and go back to portrait.

The problem with the reg edits is that eventually your keyboard will get stuck. The way to do it without messing anything up is through HDTweak. Not HD2Tweak. There is a difference. Once installed scroll down and turn xt9 off. Then the very next option will be T9. This is what you enable. Dont forget to soft reset. You will have auto correct and word completion perfectly after that without any problems.

The funny thing is that HDTweaks does the exact same thing as my cab does.
I used SKTrack to monitor the changes made by HDTweak and it changes the exact same registry keys to the exact same values I suggested...
