hi,
i can t stand this automatic text completion when you write sms. oonce you start to write a word, it suggest and select some words that in final turn to be a mess and a nightmare.
i didn t find any option for unactive this auto completion.
is it possible to turn it off?
thxx for helping
best regards
nocomp
In your keyboard (if youre using full qwerty) theres a key with a switch abc<-->t9 (between shift and space) click on it so the switch goes to abc side-- now your auto word completion is off --- (auto word completion is named as t9 in winmo--I think )
thank you soooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCHHHHH
worked like a charm
best regards
HTC use a flavour of T9 auto-completion called xT9. It is used on all three of the HTC keyboards (Phone Keypad, Compact QWERTY and Full Qwerty). It's not terrible, but it is a bit quirky. You can get rid of xT9 completely and restore the old T9 auto-completion/correction, which behaves more as you would expect it. Unfortunately the HTC keyboards behave rather unpredictably with the old T9 (the phone keypad just plain won't work!).
Your real alternatives are to stick with xT9 (and turn it to ABC input as necessary) using the HTC input methods... or go back to T9 and use a third party keyboard SIP, or the Windows one.
Does that make it any clearer?

Is there anywhere where I can download this? Is this a free utility?
Kinda difficult to use keyboard all the time (one handed).
Thanks.
first of all, most applications do support word completion (go to Settings, Input, Word Comp.)
start typing something in word and it'll give u a list of choices
But you're talking about dictionary words only. I'm talking about T9 input, just like doing sms on regular cellphones, but in this case, on the touch screen.
Anyone know how to use this keypad as a sms keypad?
i always like old school keypad thank you!
i like the effect of this keypad looks like steel.
and more space available for touch

ive tried easysms and phonetype.
you can search for both and try.
i like phonetype better coz easysms is too colorful and kind of have a slow response.
i was trying on htc's but can't seem to make it work.
here are some screenshots of phonetype
shows the 3 options for the keypad layout
BlackStone_Keypad.cab
only english and russian and phonepad and full qwerty
get the file another language and replace reg info

Hi,
the latest version of the htc keyboard, found in several ROMs released in the last few weeks, seems to have lost the ability to add a new word to the T9 dictionary.
the little plus button that appeared next to the suggested words is no longer present.
does anyone know of a way to add wrods to its dictionary?
Thanks
I second that
It is possible to add words to the dictionary by switching to ABC mode while still using the Compact QWERTY layout and typing the word. When you hit "space" it will add the word to the dictionary so it will be there the next time you go to use it in XT9.
Hope this helps.
I recently upgraded from a T-Mobile Wing to the T-Mobile TP2, and for the most part I am really appreciating the improvements in hardware and software.
One thing that is bugging me, though, is that when texting or writing an email on my Wing I would be offered a list of possible words after typing the first few characters. I could select one with the arrow keys, and then press space to accept. This made typing out messages much faster. Also, it would auto-correct certain words - like changing "i' to "I", or "adn" to "and".
I can't seem to find a place to turn these features on in my TP2.
It originally came with WM 6.1, but I have since upgraded with the official WM 6.5.
Any ideas?
Edit:
I should also mention that I am talking about using the hardware keyboard. I am aware that you can bring up the on-screen keyboard, select XT9, and close the on-screen keyboard - and then you will have word completion functionality, but the setting does not seem to be persistent.
Thanks!
It should work, just open up the keyboard in landscape mode and click the same XT9 key. If not go search for a registry change to have it default to that setting.

My point was kind of that I don't want to open the on-screen keyboard and select XT9. It becomes pretty unwieldy to add those steps every time I slide out the keyboard.
I was hoping that someone could point me to an option setting that I hadn't stumbled across.
It seems an odd bit of functionality to have been removed from the OS, so I was hoping that it was there, but not enabled - make sense?
Thanks for the tip, though

On my phone it was saving XT9 as the default for messages, even after a soft reset. I'm running Mighty Mike's 6.5 sense 2.1. Here is a possible solution (post 7):

My phone is not saving XT9 as a default at all. As soon as I open a new message it is back to ABC mode. I checked the setting in the link that you shared, but mine was already turned on. Seems to make no difference to the hardware keyboard.
Thanks again
Hi,
I don't like the word prediction on the standard HTC keyboard. If Itype a word that's not in the dictionary, I can either change it to the word the prediction suggests, or insert + save the word I typed in.
the problem is, sometimes I DON'T want the word saved, like it's a one-time-use word. the prediction on the android keyboard was much better; tap the word once to insert, tap another time to save. (but I like HTC keyboard's symbols-handling better)
any way to get this "tap twice to save" on the HTC keyboard too?
btw does anyone have a download link to android keyboard?
edit: oh and is it possible to turn off the "buggy" text reflow in the web browser?
Tap twice to save is not possible afaik with the standard HTC keyboard. However, if you search for the HTC_IME mod by some guy called Jonas, you will find a modded version of the keyboard which you can configure somewhat into the direction you described. Root isn't required for this keyboard btw.
Good luck!
