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.
I’m using Schap’s ROM version 4.0 (great rom ) I didn't have enough time to upgrade to 4.22 for now. I have noticed a strange problem with my TyTN. While scrolling the contacts with keys (beneath the screen not the keyboard) sometimes all keys stops responding – even for starting and endig calls. The device is working and the touchscreen is ok too. I have to open the comm manager from the side button (this one works) and close it then everything is ok - all keys are working fine.
I have posted this problem during the discussion for the Schap’s Rom 4.0 and someone suggested that this is a hardware issue. I’m sure it’s not because everything else works fine and I only get this problem while scrolling the contacts.
This is annoying.
Has someone got the same problem? Any suggestions how to fix it?
Thank you in advance.

Probably you start the program whith your ear.
Try to put the phone in sleep mode during call, probabbly your problem will be gone.
I always push the power button on the right top corner of the HD when I start calling or am being called.
Good luck!
You haven't mapped the call/answer button with aeb or mobilemagic to start tomtom have you?
I am also getting this on a Tytn II/Kaiser
Definately not hitting buttons or anything - it's really annoying.
Me too. Even more strangely, it opened a TomTom screen from a trip I made before getting this Touch HD, and I'm using new Tom Tom version and new map. So it must have accessed a file on the storage card copied over from my Diamond. Then put this into its Start list.
Sanitising the Start list, and then using Memmaid and cleaning everything out in Protected mode solved the problem. Good luck.
Tom Tom
Hi All,
Not 100% sure why but this is my experience:
When tomtom is closed by holding down the end key or from the application switcher, some tomtom process still remains open in the background (you can see this by going in to task manager).
Then for some reason, when on a phone call tomtom starts running again.
Solution: End tomtom properly by pressing "Exit Application".

Great info mike, thankyou. Will give it a go soon but I just got back from hols.
The title explains it. Whenever I open up my hardware keyboard in WM and in Android, the screen freezes. The functions of the phone still work, but the screen is stuck in portrait mode with no changes as i use the keyboard. When I close the keyboard, it returns to normal with whatever I had typed in showing up on the screen. However, the screen works fine if the keyboard is part/almost all of the way out and sometimes when tilted. There is only an issue when the slider is in the full-out position.
It was working totally fine until I flashed Jackos EVO Full 1.2.0 (5/1/11). I proceeded to do a Task 29 and flashed the Apr. 26 Energy Cookie v2.0 29020 and the problem persists.
In addition with Android, I have tried nearly every version of it (both system.ext2 and CWM) with the same results. However, in Android, the screen glitches and 5-10 pixel wide vertical lines with the correct image appear on it.
Please help!
Did you find any solution with this? I am experiencing the same issue. If the keyboard is open the screen stops updating. If I slide the keyboard in the slightest amount the screen begins to work again. I haven't done any software changes and I am still running the stock 2.0 ATT rom. Same as you whatever I have typed or done while the screen was frozen updates as soon as I close the keyboard.
I suspect that there is something broken in the phone like a cable. Just trying to get some ideas of what part I might need to buy and how to change it.
Thanks in advance.

It sounds like the keyboard ribbon cable is not properly seated. This would cause the lockup when it is fully extended in the keyboard.

Good to know thanks.
For me the biggest issues are -
1. Voicemail does not play back via Bluetooth. I use BT for everything so this is important for my business needs.
2. Slow data compared to my EVO 3D.
3. After reboot it always goes back to minimal screen timeout.
Swype switching to Spanish is annoying. I've had that happen twice and have no clue why. Also Sprint Music+ has stopped playing for me 3 times already. Maybe time to install DoubleTwist again.

On the swype keyboard there is a globe button at the bottom left hand side third button that you press to switch from english and spanish. That happened to me yesterday and I noticed that. Whats cool is you can switch to Spanish, press the voice button, and say something in English it will be translated into Spanish on the screen. I thought it was cool but not very useful for me.
And the wifi problems.
