if u watch in main post of ur rom im not the only one who ask about this problem...i really dont understand why it happen..
i dont want to flash again my pda and setup all again hehe but if i dont remember bad the other time i flashed (for batterystatus problem) i had the same problem..
4.1 about how much time need? hehe
im using darkphonepad but with classic one its the same

Hi,
i found an workaround to set phonepad to default.
1. Install "Phone Pad - International.CAB"
2. Install SKTools (Demomode is ok)
3. Set in SKTool under "Input Methods" Phone Pad to default
4. After restart run SKTool again
5. Remove all Input Methods excepting Phone Pad (Remove Key)
6. Softreset
7. Install GermanInputWM6.cab
Phone Pad is now the default Input Method after this. And the normal German Keyboard is in Inputlist, too.
There is anymore a Problem. Other Input Methods can only set one time after Restart???!!!
This workaround will not run with "Touch Phone Pad - International.CAB"!!!!! If you do that with this version, your PDA will not start anymore after set it to the default "Input Methods"!!??
Not Forget to change the LanguageKey in the Registry to 0!
Anyone know with file must be change to get the skin of Touch Phone Pad?

i think the freware version doesent have that function right?
anyway i need the italian language and i never seen a cab with italian keyboard around...
i found another workaround...simply install tons of times and set language everytime before open phonepad....1 time on 10 it works heheeh
with ur workaround phonepad works at every reset? because lots of time for me when i press "phonepad" in the menu it switch on normal keyboard without displaing phonepad skin...and then i need to reinstall phonepad

I found a better way!
Use this Too => IMSelector (Default_IM_WM5.CAB)
I found it here: http://pocketcm.com/phorum/read.php?11,801
With this Tool "Touch Phone Pad - International.CAB" work as default IM now without delete the original IMs!

im flashing again...
but i think it wont change anything
can u attach that file? the link in that forum doesent work

Here the file...

real thanks
with the new flash i found a way to use my language...but still disappear phonepad sometimes...
simply the first time i install it before reset pda..i choose the language then soft reset...
before select phonepad go to options and choose again the language (should be on the last u choosed) then confirm 2 times and the T9 dictionary is the right one...
i hope that with ur workaround i can eliminate the problem with disappeared phonepad

LOL, ah well, i see your point, but if calling or texting, i just pull over where its safe, because when your behind the wheel of a car, your actually driving a weapon, and there is nothing more valuble than life itself...

HTC touch dual full screen keyboard (UPDATED, Thank you theloanranger)

New cab with working files (all three keyboards) no key appearing fixed and some other bugs (still a couple popping up though) can't wait tell JUVS and some of the other guys get more of the new apps working. Thank you theloanranger !
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...336587&page=10
Cab file has been switched to the new one
Did not see anyone working on this in this forum (seems focused in ELF) but the keyboard does work on other devices thought I would post it over here (would be a great addition to the ROMS
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1595623&postcount=29

will test it out. thanks
edit* doesn't work on my 8525. Just black blank square shows up and no response at all.

Thanks for sharing!
It works just fine on my 8525, except the Symbol Keyboard, which is blank. Hopefully this glitch is solved soon.

Would someone please post a screen shot please?

well, I made a package using Pandora for my Hermes.
in order to solve the symbol problem, I had to include the symbol pad in the ROM.
everything works just fine now.
Thank you guys!!!

Would you be so kind as to share your Pandora package, please?
Also, have you noticed the problem with using the slide out keyboard and XT9 input on the hermes?

can you tell what the 3 different files are and how to use them, do they have CABs?
if it is a keyboard skin why are there 3 files to DL?
thanks

the three files are keyboard, random acess( this like iphone where you can slide your finger down the alfabet letters so you can go straight to that group), and the last one i am still trying to figure out what this is for.
the only one i am using is random access that works. if you want i will share my personnal rom with random access included. the only thing you will have to do is use schaps 1.0 config to remap your left soft key to random access and rename the shown name to contacts. by doing this random access works all the time.

disable xt9
hi,
the keyboard is cool, its working on my tytn.
my problem is that i don't like the t9 at all. i'm used to write messages my way.
i searched in the forums, and there was a tip of deleting registry key tegic. if i rename the key, the keyboard is not working anymore. does anyone have an idea or solution to disable the xt9 input method for the touch keyboard?
the setting XT9SupportMSSip is on 1, i changed it to 0 -> this worked fine, i don't have the t9 support in the default keyboards anymore (it displays the icon on the top, but it is switched off on text-entry.)

has anyone already exported the HTC Touch Dual 'Image Viewer'?
looks very nice!!

would some one please kindly supply with fixed cab file

The T9 would be a great tool if it can be switch on and off! Especially when in hard keyboard mode....

Keyboard skins
Hi
Is there a way to make this fabulous keyboard (thanks to the autor of this thread) working with an azerty -or whatever- keyboard ?
Thanks in advance
Regards.
Edit: With Advanced Config Tool from schap's, you can set the default keyboard layout !

yes it is in this forum (look for htc album)

I luv this keyboard, but for what ever reason there apears to be an issue with contacts selection within pocket outlook.
Ie when you type in the first couple of letters of a contact in the mail To box, I used to be presented with a filtered list of contacts, for what ever reason this doesn't happen now.....not sure if anybody knows any reg edits of this funtion.
I'll post some screenshots when I get home

Does anyone know if it is possible to turn on Auto Correct again using slide-pot keyboard? As i installed this Auto Correct doesnt work, and it is ticked?

thank you
I am really happy to see this keyboard fix, For all foreigners in Japan who have this phone, touch dual or ht1100, this keyboard fix is AWESEOME, HTC released the touch phone here with a tiny little blue keyboard that could ony be used with a fine stylus, and made it impossible to use.
I been looking for this fix for a long time.
Thank you.

HTC Diamon Keyboard

For those who missed it...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=390688

Is it compatible Artemis ?
Becuase the thread mentioned Kaiser
Thanks anyway

Yup, works great on my O2 XDA Orbit

Works on my artemis xD

And for those interested visit this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=392197, in here we can download 12 different languages for this keyboard, including oem package, courtesy from Gullum.
Cheers

I've tried this keyboard on my P3300 but it made my device very slow. Even after a reset. I assume it just takes to much memory. I Personally would have enough by just heaving the full qwerty keyboard and not the other 2. This might even prevent the device from becoming to slow....
btw, removing it, took about 15 minutes!!!!!

I have same problem. My O2 Orbit is very slow with this keyboard.

I have a similar problem, my xda was really slow with the keyboard installed...... although the keyboard was good and worked fairly fast.
Like the above uninstalling took close to 15minutes.

I found that u-ninstalling the touch keypad/qwerty keyboard and then installing the diamond keyboard seemed to boost the speed a lot on my orbit

That does make sense, because a keyboard is put into the memory of the device. So putting in an extra kerboard, etc, would take even more memory, which results in a slow device.
How did you remove the Touch keypad/qweartykeyboard?

************
How I worked around the issue, however reflash was required.
For some reason even after uninstalling the keyboard my phone was still exceedingly slow i.e. going into the programs folder would take about 1 minute!!
This left me no choice but to reflash the device. After reflashing my phone with the Vanilla version of WM 6.1 the first thing I did was install the keyboard from the link ark666 suggested Link then I reinstalled all the other software I had on my phone Tom Tom, SPB etc. Phone now works fine and as fast as it used to be.
Really strange why it initially killed the phone, but guess it will be one of lifes many mysteries...................

newbie... a bit slow

Me, I am a bit slow, my XDA is zippin along tho, thanks to Tom latest oops black!
Two things, and I have searched but I cannot find an answer that was not too geeky for me to understand.
1. I loved my blackberry style keybord - qwerty but with half the buttons - I had an old flashed ROM from mechel (spelling) before and that let me pick from about three keyboards... how can I get something like this back... explin to me as is I was you granny and imagine your granny is slow...
2. what the heck is going on with the biotouch.exe? is there a workaround?
thank in a van ;o)

www.sleepywhisper.com/guy

well sorry i don't understand you well :-S
but if you looking for a keyboard and spelling
there is the keyboard i'm using (i like )
HTC Opal EzInput QVGA KeyBoards Suite
and what the problem with the biotouch?

do I install the keyboard just like a regular cab application
you see I have already done that and the new kb hasn't shown up!
---
biotouch - when I run my finger down the screen after installing oops black - i get an error from biotouch.exe...

well
yes just install it as regular cab..
after soft reset your device.. and see the keyboards
anf for the bio touch see this post in that thread

which custom ROMs have Transcriber/letter recognizer inputs?

I just flashed my first custom rom (energy photon) and noticed that the transcriber and letter recognizer inputs are not available in the sip menu. Apparently I'm one of the weird ones and use these as my primary input methods (I love handwriting recognition!). In which case, does anyone know of or use a custom rom that offer these input methods? I've tried searching but its not exactly common for the chefs to say they have transcriber or letter recognizer offered in their roms. Anyone have any suggestion or perhaps cabs to install?
thank you very much

Is this too newbie of a question? Should I just search more?

I am in the same boat. Just upgrade to NRG's Photon 10/28 and not seeing Block/Handwriting input, just the different keyboards. Anyone have info on this?

same here ... hoping for a resolution soon to an otherwise great ROM experience

Ok .. I am a dumbass ... I Finally figured it out ..
I installed Transcriber ..
click-> http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...c3-2eee-41e3-9339-f7b303f4b386&displaylang=en
And true 6.5 roms do not give you the option of choosing transcriber from the optons menu ..
However if you find transcriber.exe in the windows dir .. you can run it and it does work !
So I made a link and added it to the startup dir in windows and it works just fine now
Just a warning .. if you change to the full or compact qwerty it closes transcriber and you will have to restart it to make it work again :/
However if you open the keyboard it will switch to the keyboard layout
and back to transcriber .. without restarting transcriber
Give it try .. Worked For me !

I guess i should thank you for being a "dumbass" for ALL of us other "dummies" who were relying on you or someone else to pose a resolution. I'll be giving this a shot today! Thanx!

Transcriber/Block recognition Gone
HTC Tilt 2 ATT Window Mobile 6.5 Pro
OS Version 5.2.21887
ROM Version 2.10.502.4
I used to have a 8525 I kept it for years and got it repaired multiple times for one reason...it had inherent handwriting recognition. When it finally died, I replaced it with the above HTC Tilt 2 specifically because it also had handwriting recognition.
Yesterday, I upgraded the ROM to the version listed above. I read through the upgrade info, didn't mention it was going to take away the one feature I loved, but it did.
I tried to install transcriber as mentioned but cannot find the .exe file discussed to make the shortcut. The new rom apparently does away with file explorer.
At this point, I feel like unhooking everything and going up into the mountains where the most technological thing I have is the axe I chop wood with.
There are a million phones out there...why can't they leave one that old farts like me can use?
Sorry for the venting...I called HTC and they said 1) can't downgrade ROM 2) Search the internet for something that let's you transcribe.
Any help would be appreciated.

"ScottSNX", modified the original HTC Transcriber for WinMo 6.5. But, word complete is still missing & not much available for free. His post is #28 at http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...=605586&page=3. CalliGrapher ( http://www.phatware.com/index.php?q=product/details/calligrapher ) is an app you can buy & it has word complete.
Thx,
Brian

Thanks! I have downloaded the cab and will let you know!
