[Q] Issue with Google Pinyin IME & other similar apps - DHD - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I use Chinese as a secondary language and had therefore installed Google Pinyin IME. The problem is that every time I use it to input text my DHD hangs as soon as I press send. It doesn't hang completely, I can stilll press home key to go to home and long press to go to last used apps but that's about it.
I tried doing a reset, but no use. Any help would be highly appreciated.
P.S - this happens with other keyboard / SMS apps as well for e.g. super keyboard.

Swype (Froyo) buggy?

Hey,
I've come across the same bug as everyone else - where Swype doesn't work properly (keyboard works, but you can slide the keys around) and you have to uninstall it and reinstall. So I've followed that and it worked fine until I rebooted where I got the same problem again! I've since reinstalled it three-four times and continuously have the same problem.
I've also noticed that the phone is continuously awake when Swype works correctly, but when it isn't working 100% (i.e. can't slide the keys around) it can correctly go to sleep and lock.
Anyone else come across this or know a fix?
Did they not release a new version for 2.2?
Go to the Swype site and re request the email with the link to the installer is sent to you again.

This worked for me with Swype
On a text-input screen, long hold and select a keyboard. Input a no. of letters and then long hold again, and now select Swype as text input method. Job is oxo.
Hi, I do get the same situation, that after rebooting or (I suspect) even when mounting the usb sdcard, I need to switch to another keyboard and back. Might have something to do with A2SD though ?
and yes, sometimes swype goes crazy and starts messing with the touchscreen multitouch badly.

Don't even have to type anything. If swype isn't "swyping" follow the following steps:
1) Long press on the text input box
2) Select a keyboard other than SWYPE
3) Long press on input box again
4) Reselect SWYPE

Keyboard Acting Weird

Sometimes this has happened to me and I was wondering on how to fix it and if anyone else has had this issue. Recently when I am in an app and I try to use my Hard keyboard if I press any of these keys it launches an app
(e - email
l - calender
p - don't recall.
g - gmail)
Anyone else see this ever. Usually I just use the onscreen keyboard when this happens and later it works again. This happened to me in the facebook app and also in dolphin browser.

Check Applications --> Quick Launch and see if you have any keys assigned to those apps.
It's my quick launch I think my search key was acting like it was pressed even though it wasn't. Thank you. Most have been stuck. Thank you.
It happens when you press the app key once by accident on the top left of the keyboard. Press it again and it turns off the shortcuts.
The app key? Which one is that? This happens to me a lot and I just mash on the keyboard until it goes away. I also am having problems with the keyboard not working at all. Sometimes I open the phone up and the whole keyboard stops working and I have to reboot the phone.
Also once I was on Dolphin browser and I was logging into Google plus and my numbers were acting funny. I could not press the ALT button to activate the numbers I had to hold the ALT then press the numbers. I thought that was weird.

Do you know any way to disable Quick Launch? Or maybe disabling all the pre-assigned things? --Do Not Want--
Thanks

Long press on the shortcut and it should give you an option to clear it.

The default shortcuts are the search button plus a letter. It happened to me once, and after pushing the search button on the top right of my keyboard a few times, everything started working fine again. Hope that helps.

Keyboard not working...at all
Hey all
CM11, official with apps installed the Captivate Glide physical keyboard is hit or miss. Since the physical keyboard is the WHOLE REASON to try to modify this older phone, its functionality is important. Physical keyboard ALT commands (#'s etc) do not work in any application. The letter keys works...sometimes. I have used default keyboard settings and have no idea whehter there is a fix on the main CM11 thread.
Many thansk!:good:
Alt is a non stick key

Well the thing is alt in cm11 is not a sticky key but its non stick . What i mean by that is that if you wanna type '1'. Keep 'ALT' pressed and hit the number '1' in blue on the keyboard. the alt key dosent seem to stick for some reason.
this is actually cause of the google ime treating our physical qwerty as a desktop keyboard i think where alt is also non stick.

"Alt" doesn't work at all -- even if held during typing. I will keep searching for keyboard fixes I guess. Since the keyboard is 100% of the reason to use the Captivate Glide, it's utility is a major issue. Many thanks for your reply!

[Q] Long press on physical keyboard has stopped working

Earlier this morning, I pulled out my phone to add something to the calendar, and I found that it had frozen. After ensuring that the power button didn't work, I pulled the battery and rebooted. It came up fine, except that the long presses on the physical keyboard have now stopped working. The SYM key also provides "\", rather than the expected behavior. The FN button in combination with keys still works, but I can't get accented characters like åäö, which was working before.
I tried reflashing my current keymap, but no dice.
I tried changing the keyboard language to something else, but no dice.
Has anybody had a similar issue before, and how did you solve it?
What rom do you use?
Also, double-check lang&input settings.
I'm using this ROM: [ROM][14-04-2012][Sense 4.0A][ICS][IceZSense beta 2 | HTC One V Port], http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1555309
I've used it for a fairly long time, and the keymap has worked fine since the pre-release of beta2. It worked perfectly fine until this freeze and hard reboot.
I guess I could re-flash the rom, and wipe my settings, but ideally I want to avoid that. While I've backed my apps at least up with Titanium Backup, I don't know about the system settings. Furthermore, it could be that any system settings that ARE backed up are causing this issue... =(
I tried changing the system language, both going from "English (Germany)" (my default) to "English (Sweden)" and "Swedish (Sweden)". Neither brings any changes.
I can't change the hardware keyboard layout, as only "English" is available.
Some keys, when held down, cause the letter to be repeated. Others simply cause the letter to appear and then nothing happens. There seems to be no reason why certain letters would behave this way. It's always the same letters, though. My guess is that letters that have multiple options for long press are those who do not repeat.

[Q] Sense Keyboard Problem

Hey there.
I bought a HTC One M8 and it's a great phone to use and I'm very happy for bought it. But I have a problem with Sense 6.0. Keyboard is crashing one or two times per day, depends on using time. What I mean with crashing is, firstly predictions become invisible. When I press icon button on keyboard, nothing happens but when i press somewhere on keyboard after I press icon button, icon get pressed. When i close keyboard with back button, keyboard is unable to open again and I'm going to settings and resetting calibiration, and calibirating again. this is very tiring thing you know. My Phone is S-on and Using HTCs' orginal ROM. I have used HTC Sensation before M8 with ViperS ROM and same was happening with that. How can I solve this problem without change my keyboard. I really like look of Sense keyboard and I dont want to use swiftkey or another keyboard.
Thanks.
