Touch Keyboard is possessed - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

I have an ATT Tilt2 with stock rom.
The pop up touch screen keyboard has decided that it will only go to the number pad and not the letters. I can change to full keyboard and that works as do all other modes but it will not go into full qwerty. Every once in a while it will switch back for a while then change back to the number pad.
I thought maybe one of the apps I was using was causeing this so I just played with emails and after a while it goes to number pad. If I switch to number pad is stays there and if I then switch to full qwerty it is still the number pad. I can not find a toggle for it back to the letters.
Changes:
Set the suggest words at 4 in HDtweak
Did the following Registry changes:
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
Any suggestions what I should look at? Am I missing a toggle somewhere that flipps back and forth?

Suggested Words and Auto Completion

Hi Guys,
I would like to know if it's possible for the Touch Pro 2 screen keyboard to support word suggestion (suggwords) and dynamic auto completion just like in the "good old" SIPs from days of TytnII. eg when i type "goo", I would like "good morning" to appear as a suggested word based on my past use.
I like the layout of the HTC stock Full Qwerty keyboard but much prefer the old system over the new xt9 system.
Any advise on whether and how the above can be achieved would be greatly appreciated!
cheers,
anyone?
I have the same issue. I would love to have the auto complete and suggested words working on my TP2
Use the Advanced Configuration Tool - works
http://www.touchxperience.com/en/advanced-configuration-tool.html
Solution
Hi all,
I had the same problem and could get rid of it via HD Tweak tool, which you can find here: HD Tweak
What I did was simply "20. Keyboard (SIP)" options, I have disabled 20.1 - Automatic display popup, enabled 20.2 T9 Mode and 20.3 Suggest Words to 4 words; and restart.
Now I get 4 recommendations easily when I am sending and sms etc. just like the old days in Kaiser; Works like a charm
I hope it helps.

Diable eT9. Enable COMP IME. This is a registry edit.
Go to: HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\layouts\e0010409
Edit: Ime File = \Windows\compime.dll
Layout Text = COMP IME
Go to: HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9
Edit: XT9SupportMSSip= 0
That will bring you back to the good old word suggestion and dynamic auto completion.
Hope this helps.
thank you thank you thank you!
this ##"¤%#¤ was driving me nuts!
i can write again
stupid me i forgot to write down the original settings for this. Could some please look in their registry & please tell me what the default values for this are?
*edit* never mind i found them:
HKLM\system\currentcontrolset\control\layouts\e 0010409
Ime File : \windows\et9ime.dll change to Ime File :\windows\compime.dll
and
Layout Text : eT9 IME change to Layout Text : COMP IME
And soft reset.
*Warning*
Changing this registry to COMP IME disables your "SYM' hardware keyboard option

Many thanks, but only one question:
I use frequently as input method the letter recognizer in my HTC Touch HD. With your modifications in the registry, I saw a list of 4 words suggested dinamically (which changes) when introducing one or another letter.
BUT, when I introduce a word that is not in the dictionary (a technical medical word, for example) in one appointment or SMS, and I want to introduce again (in another appointment or SMS) the first two or three letters again, this word is not suggested. It seems like this word is not incorporated in the custom dictionary.
I remember this new word introduced in one appointment or a SMS, was suggested when I introduce the first letters as one of 4 of the list, in my old QTEK s200 (HTC Prophet).
Do you know if is necessary any registry modifications to obtain this feature?
Best Regards and many thanks
can some send me compime.dll?
I don't see compime.dll in the Windows folder on my Tilt2. att probably removed it.
That HD Tweak worked great. When I do the reg edit on my Tmo TP2 I lose the space bar on the software keyboard...Tj

its not, nor has ever been in my \Windows directory for my Tmo TP2, yet the registry tweak still worked. Maybe its just not viewable, even though I have it to show all files

Thanks. I just confirmed that the file is present and hidden. I tried this hack but it completely messed up the Hard keyboard on the Tilt2. Reverting back..

I tried the above and was able to get the auto complete (the person I want to send txt or mail too), but for this:
Go to: HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9
Edit: XT9SupportMSSip= 0
XT9SupportMSSip was already set to 0. I still cant get auto suggest to work.
I tried setting WordCompletion to 1 from 0, but that did work either.
Anyone get it working? How?
***UPDATE*** Never mind, I used AdvanceConfigTool to set word suggest to 4 words. It was set to 0, so I got 0.
HAPPY NOW!

Which version of TP2 do u have? Tmobile? Doing this change on ATT's Tilt2 completely screwed up the HW Keyboard, and I had to reset to factory..

I did this on my Tilt 2 and did not have any issues with my HW keyboard.
I only wish I could edit the fallowing options:
1. Number of letter before it Auto Suggest a word.
2. Set it to not automatically insert a space after I select a suggested word.
Anyone know how to do this?
Aside from that it works great.
The first time I did it, the next day it gave my a keyboard without a spacebar, it had a ".com" & "/" key instead. I did a Clear Storage and did it all again and it works fine now.
UPDATE: Well it was working until I enter my owner info and while inputting my phone number the keyboard switched to a number keypad and now it stuck there. I can't get the regular keyboard to pop back up.
This is getting frustrating!

OK after a few days with HD Tw for some reason on my T-mo TP2 the software keyboard goes to a number only keyboard with the letters P & W so I have to put it back the original way and restart the phone then go back into HD Tw and redo the settings again anyone else have this problem? ...Tj
Best I can tell when the reg is edited to replace eT9 with the original Auto suggest & Auto Complete once the number keyboard come up, it wont go away.
this is a real bummer, I like the nice Touch input keyboard BUT I much prefer the original Auto suggest & Auto Complete. SO far I can't find a way to keep both.

I have a Tilt 2 and running AT&T's stock ROM. For now I'm sticking with the eT9 as to keep an actual usable SW keyboard. Hope there a solution soon.

Simply change these two registry keys under:

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.

This is really annoying.

Word Completion missing on T-Mobile TP2

I have an HTC Touch Pro2 from T-Mobile running WinMo 6.1. It seems that under Settings, Personal, Input, the "Word Completion" tab is missing between "Input Method" and "Options" that was there on my previous WinMo 5 device. Is this feature missing from WinMo 6.1 in general, or has it been disabled by T-Mo? if it's been disabled, is there a way to enable it?
yeah it's missing in my Tmo TP2 too. I do miss the auto correction feature that was on that tab.
edit : I did not reading the message right sorry

now will that enable the tab to change the settings in the Input settings or just enable the options? I want the word completion, but not the word suggestion.
tkali is right- they are one and the same. Word completion and word correction are both linked to disabling T9
http://www.fuzemobility.com/autocorrect-and-autocompletion-solved/
Quick question about the reg edit. I havetriededitthe first valeu but it tells me access is denied. Is there something I am missing?
I made the registry edits mentioned in the other thread (copied below for reference) but I still don't have the missing Word Completion tab even after a soft reset.
From the other thread referenced above:
Diable eT9. Enable COMP IME. This is a registry edit.
Go to: HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\layouts\e001 0409
Edit: Ime File = \Windows\compime.dll

That will bring you back to the good old word suggestion and dynamic auto completion.
yeah unfortunately it doesn't bring back the word completion tab, which i was hoping.
What exactly does it do then? I didn't notice any change.
it should enable it so that when you're typing, it'll give you 4 (changeable) suggested words as well as auto-correct some words. (type comming & it'll change to coming)
I like the auto-correct feature on the Tilt/MDA because you could type contractions without the apostrophe & the phone would auto-correct it for you. I hate the word suggestion & always had that turned off.
I don't know why they'd take this tab & feature out of the input settings/phone.
I'm still not getting any suggested words; I used to get them when using the Letter Recognizer (WinMo 5), but I don't get them with that or the QWERTY. I may have inadvertently set the # of words to suggest to 0; do you happen to know the registry setting for that?
I have a friend who has a WinMo 6.1 phone, but not from T-Mobile, and the Word Suggestion tab is visible. Seems there must be a setting for that somewhere that T-Mo disabled for some reason.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding your question, but I got Word Completion/Suggestion working just fine on my T-Mo Touch Pro 2 by pressing the XT9 button on the soft keyboard
Doesn't work while using the hardware keyboard though, which may be what you're asking about
yeah, we're talking about the function working with the hardware keyboard
Gotcha! Ignore me then
OK got the word completion to work but now I have no "space" instead I have ".com" there. Anyone have this problem?...Thanks
Does anyone have the factory settings?
I was actually referring to the on-screen input methods, not the slide-out keyboard. On my previous WinMo 5 device, the suggested words appeared regardless of which method I used - Letter Recognizer, QWERTY, etc. That's what was I looking for.
I also discovered what I did wrong - I had an "n" instead of an "m" in the name of the DLL. I corrected that, did a soft-reset and Viola! I have the suggested words now. It's hard to distinguish an "n" and "m" on that small screen.
The tab is still missing under Settings, Input - I would still like to have that visible if anyone figures out how to enable it.
Thanks for the help.
does anyone have the qwerty reg settings, now i no longer have that function all i have is regular keyboard or when qwerty is selected i have just numbers...thanks
Problem solved T-mo Word completion/no space bar
OK here is what I did on my T-mobile TP2 to get word completion working with the space bar (Mine (space bar) disappeared after I did the reg hack) I put these settings in and now I have word completion and the space bar back.
I went to
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\layouts\e001 0409
Edit: Ime File = \Windows\compime.dll
Layout Text = eT9 IME
Go to: HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9
Edit: XT9SupportMSSip= 0
Now on MY T-mo TP2 I have word Comp and a space bar also. Hope this helps someone...Tj
@TrekkerJmm does SYM on your hardware keyboard still work? (ALT + ,)

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.

Get numbers in the top of the keyboard for TILT 2

If you have a AT&T tilt 2 and want to have numbers on the top as in some previous htc devices, do the following changes:
Be sure that:
HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9\XT9SupportMSSip has a value of 0
Change these two registry keys under:
HKLM\system\currentcontrolset\control\layouts\e0010409
•Ime File: \windows\et9ime.dll --> Ime File: \windows\compime.dll
•Layout Text : ET9 IME --> Layout Text : COMP IME
Soft reset and you're done!
but you lose the features of hardware keyboard symbols, unless you can have it memorized.
A better method would just replace the keyboard with an original Touch Pro 2 like what many have done with the original TP, except this hardware change isn't every easy on the TP2.
I would love to change the tilt 2 keyboard to the regular tp2 keyboard with the numbers accross the top, but i cant see paying what the keyboard cost at this time. eventualy i will do it to all the tilt 2's in the house

True, this hint is for those who do remember where the symbols are assigned. Alternatively, symbols can be accessed using FN mode.
It's so stupid on AT&T's part to change the layout of the keyboard on the Tilt2, honestly who uses the number pad on the keyboard to dial phone numbers.
Can anyone tell me where to find the replacement keyboard for TP2?
