Touch input bug - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello. I have some sort of bug with the default browser. When I try to write in the Google search each letter turns into a star, like it thinks im typing a password. Anyone had similar problems and know how to solve it?
Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk

That's a new one. Have you tried installing another browser and seeing if it does the same?

Same here. Seen a few people mention it; setting instant (beta) to 'on' sorted it for me, but heard others say that didn't work.

Only happens when using the default browser. Tried rebooting the phone but no luck. Running ARHD 3.3 if that makes any sense.

Here's one thread I found, link to some other threads and email from HTC (claiming it's to do with encryption) in there.

Problem adding XDA to Communities

I've been trying to add XDA to Communities app, but I keep getting the 'wrong username or password' error. I know I'm using the correct ones (I'm here now on the website ), but short of registering with a different username-password, I can't think what I could do. Just wanted to bring this to XDA's attention, though the problem could be with Communities.

Same problem in Tapatalk.
I'm in webOS now, but when I booted to Android (cm7 - alpha3) I encountered the same problem, in the browser. I even looked up the password in Firefox on my pc, I'm using the correct one, but for some reason it's not being recognized.
Any mods have a suggestion?
Does your password contain special characters? That is all I can think of...
Tapatalk/Forum Runner work fine for me, and my password here is one that would usually cause issues on something badly written

Thanks for the answer, but, no it's a plain vanilla, letter & number combination pwd. It works fine for other sites.

S Voice

anyone tried S Voice with the Desire yet?
it installs on ICS so I think it might work
original: http://minus.com/llX3TROSRO4NH
fixed to work on unauthorized devices: http://minus.com/lCWshD37drA9R
Tested it now. Might be best skipping the intro and it fc when trying to change the wake command. Also double tap home didn't work for me either.
Clear data if you have fc on start up. But it does work. Can google search and text etc.
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda premium
works, but very slowly on AOKP build 35. I will try it later on Sandvolds beta 8.1
It's slow at responding for all machines I think
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D X515m using xda premium
Works rather fast for me. It fc when I do stuff like 1+1 or something like that. And its slow in opening apps. Sandvold ICS.

i've used the new one for checking the weather for location, sending text and calling - all seems to work well.
I install S-Voice from the apk from frandroid.com
And it works, open apk, understand french language...
I hope this apk will mature quickly
on HTC desire the installaton crash but, after a reboot, it works
nice one!
I do not have a crash during installation.
I'm on ics 4.0.4 bravo cyanogen mod 9 RC 3.4.U1.
And it works.
Does someone test http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1673354 on HTC Desire ?
Tried the first APK, but it wasn't for me.
Also it's weird to say 'Hi Galaxy' to desire.
I suggest to wait for a year or so, so that developers can stabilize the system
work
The fix S voice apk and Spanish language works well for me.
I have 2 days with him and I am testing it

Bumpity bump, if anyone has any idead/recommendations on how to fix it, the mobile version of fb, m.facebook.com in the browser app has the same issue....

Then it's a recent Facebook issue, though it's not happening to me. You should wait for them to fix it.
Don't bump your threads. At least not so soon. It's annoying for those who read. This isn't an IM conversation. Bumping won't bring up a notification and make people see your post any faster. They'll see it when they do, and reply if they have anything to say. Give it time after you post.

Ok wipe everything(data,cache,dalvik cache) and reflash your rom again.This should fix your problem.

when exactly do the reboots happen - just randomly? You could check if it just happens on 3G data (just switch to 2G or turn data off and see if it keeps rebooting).

And yes some stupid poeple create virus for android to spy you and to have bug on your phone like restart bug.

They would create a virus to send all your messages to a server - why would they restart your phone when they can steal all your personal info?
It's not a virus... god.

nah they're only trying to spy you - not me (I'm not interesting enough for them). But the reboot virus: yes I already had it and I could read that you have it now... (perhaps the froyo radio has a virus...:silly: )
They can feel free to look through the 16000.png's from extracting apps and themes, that's about all there is on my phone.
To the op, I had a similar problem try turning window animations off in cm settings that solved it for me.

Facebook App Zoomed In?

So I'm using the Mimicry 1.5.0 ICS ROM, and when I downloaded Facebook, it looks all zoomed in. Its hard to explain so I guess you'll have to see for yourself. I've tried multiple times uninstalling and reinstalling the app. I've erased and re installed the ROM and it always comes out this way. Hopefully someone can find a fix for me. And i've tried using FriendCaster, but I would much rather prefer the Facebook app instead, so please don't suggest apps. Thanks in advance!
Please!

I am suffering from the same issue. This weird zoom-in thing happens also on my current rom "cm10 testbuild-120". It was same on Mimicry 1.5 as mentioned above. Pics through the news feed doesn't look properly and overflow my screen. On my friend's nexus and desire c with stock sense, there seems to be no problem with app layout or another issue. Any help appreciated, please
