Is there anyway we can click on a text box the page moves up above the keyboard?
Right now if the page cant be moved up anymore, the keyboard blocks the text box and i cant see what im writing on certain webpage forms
Just Push The Back Button On The Phone And The KeyBoard Goes Away..
ya i know that but lets say you have to edit words and or sentences
in other roms the page would be bumped up, im sure it will be fixed in the final
but was wondering if there is an easy fix
anyone have an idea?

Hi,
I hope you can help with this if you know the answers.
1. From the HTC Desire manual page 65
If you see the word you want highlighted in green or orange, you can simply tap the space bar to insert the word into your text.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Can you disable this? So, when pressing the space bar, it wont take the highlighted word. I saw in the past a setting for this, but I cannot find it back.
2. Is that true that text prediction is not available on certain apps?
For example: Market, when I am searching for something, the text prediction does not popup.
Can we enable this? I guess ... not.

sorry i cant help you i guess, i also wish i knew how to enable the prediction everywhere and i think it will be available once it will be rooted?
With regards to text prediction not working in certain places, I think in a place the Android Market it's understandable because plenty of the apps aren't proper words or names so text prediction would be pointless.
A predictive search feature like you get in Google trying to guess what you are going to search based on popularity, but ignoring whether it's a proper word or not... Now that would be preferable in the Market.
Is there any way to get copy/paste functionality on a non-sense 2.2 rom. Its killing me that I dont have this, really the only thing missing from CM6 and holding me back from it as a daily driver.
Any thoughts would be appreciated!
Copy/paste should work just fine in CM6. Works for me, anyway.
Just long press on the text you want and you should get the menu with copy/cut options.
Not to hijack this thread, but I've asked elsewhere and there doesn't appear to be a solution but I figured I'd give the inquiry another go...
Is anyone aware of a method to use either a multitouch keyboard or perhaps a specific pinch/zoom gesture to copy/past/cut text on the fly?
I really miss being able to do so easily on my G1's physical keyboard...and highlighting specific text with the trackball.
maybe i am a roflcopter, but I cannot get a copy paste prompt to open after a longpress? Does anyone know what I could be doing wrong?

Where are you trying to copy text from?
I am able to long-press on any text field (SMS, Address Bar, etc.) and get a pop-up menu that includes: Select text, Select all, Cut, Copy, Paste, etc.
I am running CM6 RC1 on my EVO.

You need to menu -> select text.
Swype has a fairly easy-to-use (though not as easy as SenseUI) select text method. Just Swype from the Swype key (the one in the bottom-left corner with the i above the Swype logo) to the SYM key. This will open the third keyboard in Swype; the editing keyboard.
So I dont know if it is just me but has anybody noticed that swype does not work right in the internet browser. Say you want to make a post much like I am right now in a text box much like the very one I am typing in right now. Well when I am typing along all the words are to together just like they would be if I was typing in the address bar. Its as if swype does not know that I am not typing in the address bar and am in a text box instead. Any way its a bit annoying having to have to hit the space bar in between each word. I would not mind if I was on a full size keyboard and not swyping my words but with one hand and my thumb I dunno kinda pain in the arse.
Perhaps im an idiot and dont have a setting on. I did check the auto spacing between words in the swype settings. It works great as when I am text messaging but does not work in the internet browser. Anybody eles notice these problems?
I noticed this too, in certain fields that it will not auto space.

I think this has always been the behavior with Swype. I guess it assumes you're entering a url instead of using the field to search.

check the swype forums it is a known buy they haven't fixed in months...no idea why they let it continue should not be hard to fix
I've just updated to 4.1.2, and there's no option I can find to change the colour of the calendar. I hate the light background, I'm used to black background with white text, easier to read. Is there anything out there I can use?
edit: sorry, keyboard isn't horrible, I've found the swype keyboard which is what I'm used to But there doesn't seem to be the single word delete function anymore with the click after deleting any words in a sentence? It just deletes the letters in succession so you can't delete complete words with one click.
edit2: well I can do it in 2 steps. swype key highlights word then backspace key deletes it.
Doing a quick google search gave me this:

I suggest doing a google search yourself as there are several different versions of dark gapps available around the internet.
As for your keyboard, perhaps try out TouchPal Keyboard:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cootek.smartinputv5&hl=en
It's a free app, and it has a slide left on the backspace key to delete a word feature.
Cheers.

Will check them out, thanks.
By the way, I just found a post of the exact same problem I'm trying to solve with word deleting.
http://android.stackexchange.com/qu...o-delete-the-entire-word-when-the-delete-butt
The solution given of swiping right to left over the home rows of the keyboard doesn't work. Has anyone else done this with any success? It really seems odd to me that they would have removed the ability to do this.
As far as I know, Swype didn't have a swipe to delete feature...perhaps what the user is talking about is TouchPal? I've never seen another keyboard have this feature, I could be wrong though. Have you tried it out?
I haven't tried touch pal yet but definitely will do.
Tbh, I'm not sure the word deletion function was specific to swype enabled keyboards, it probably did it on non swype enabled too. Although I used swype all the time, I used to just hold the delete button down for a bit longer and it would delete entire words one after the other with a click after each word. So I wasn't swyping to delete but just pressing the delete button, yet sadly that feature seems to have gone now apart from the first and last words. Imo there's a few features in jellybean that are a step backwards from previous android versions.
Ok here goes,
I have the keyboard set so I have the buttons configured below
clipboard , ? Spacebar return
Now if I go in the browser it changes
Cog / spacebar . .com go
Now I understand that there probably more relevant than my setup but I want my setup, does anyone know how to change this or hack it, it's driving me mental as when I use the browser keyboard my searches look like this how.many.apples.are.in.a.bunch as the space bar is smaller and I keep hitting the . button #annoying
Any help welcome
im having the same problem, it seems it is normal(?)
akso, are you having this issue aswell:http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/help/problem-lgs-keyboard-t2833907
I do not know as I never use it, but I cant see how this is ok why bother giving you the option,
