Just a quick question - I'm getting a little confused here...
Does PocketCM-Keyboard run on the Polaris or not (I hear there's some problems with XT9)?
If it does: would there be a guide on how to set it up properly (apart from what's on the PocketCM Homepage)?
Thanks a lot!
It runs on my Polaris.
Take just the .Cab on PocketCM Homepage if you don't want to take the .Exe.
After installing, do a soft reset and it will be OK.

I heard that you have to disable xt9. Is that not the case?

Nope. XT9 only come as default input mode for pocket contact manager. PocketCM keyboard is totally different and a lot better than the default keyboard.

I wasn't referring to Pocket Contact. I heard from other Touch owners that you would need to disable xt9 in order for other kb's to work properly throughout the rest of the system. One of the examples would be using a regular kb when typing in a contact name in the email address to field.
buggy with T9
I use the HTC Diamond and wonder if there is a solution to the following:
When I write an SMS i like to use the "phone keypad", but when I'm in Word or Opera I like to use the full keyboard.
When I change the keyboard I do so for all programs (The keyboard is "Global"), but what I'd like was if the keyboard selected was for the program I was in ("Local" selection of keyboard). This would make things a lot more easy.
Is there already en option making this possible?
Is there software around fixing this?

Welcome to the forum
Do a search for SIP changer, install it, then open in programs and select your desired permanent keyboard.
Good luck and enjoy!
Hello,
I am looking for a replacement of the build in sw keyboard for my HD2. I liked the idea of sliding over the keyboards.
I found different sliding keyboards - the funny thing is that every company writes something about "patents" and unique
I tried already SlideIT and ShapeWriter, because both are available for testing. But it seems that swype is not available. I suppose it should just be bundled with pdas (e.g. omnia 2)
Now my questions:
- Are there other solutions available?
- How are the chances to have Swype on the HD2?
- I have stability problems with SlideIT on my HD2
(e.g. the screen area for SlideIT are not correctly drawn, and keeps
destroyd...)
Is there someone running SlideIT on the HD2 without problems?
Any other notes are welcome...
Best regards,
stefan

I contacted Dsaur (SlideIT) yesterday ; below is a section of the emai I sent .
"I have stumbled on a problem, whilst trying to use my phone horazontaly in Opera or tryng to text message the SlideIT keyboard does not function correctly do you have a fix inplace for this?
At the moment this is the only thing stopping me making a purchase.
Many Thanks "

"Yes we will fix this bug and it will be corrected in our next demo release soon (about 2 weeks). Regards
Daniel"
I cant wait I really do like this Keyboard
Scuzzy
You can try a ported version of SWYPE
It is ported from Verizon's Omnia II (same resolution as HD2)
http://www.mediafire.com/file/ungnttnzmwa/Swype.cab
Working!!! Rom WWE 1.43
On NON-WWE ROMs you have to move the swype folder from your locale program files folder to /Program Files/

SlideIT
I purchased the slide it keyboard. I fell in love with it from the start. It is working without problems on my HD2. I have noticed the same problem, mentioned earlier, about the landscape typing. It works, but it doesnt look right.
It has increased my text speed at least 50%! It doesn't play well with entering usernames and passwords, however. I find myself changing back to touch input for this.
is there any way to get GERMAN DICTIONARY for swype? because i've only spanisch and english
Swype is pretty interesting... I find myself giggling inside a little every time I *swype* a long word.
Yeah, Swype is pretty good from initial impressions. I've tried slide-it, shapewriter and I find swype's keyboard to be laid out the best (in terms of straight typing and not swiping).
Amazing
I tried SlideIT. It's ok, but I don't like the design and it does not support landscape. That's a deal breaker.
Swipe is my favorite: good design, fast. Unfortunately it's only in Spanish and English....
I am not satisfied with ShapeWriter. It did not recognise most of the words and is only avalaible in Qwerty.
I have WWE 1.43
Why doesn't it work for me?
Its installed in root/Program Files/
I can go to settings > personal > input and its there, but whenever i choose it, it automatically goes back to the default htc keyboard.
You can modify the input with SK Tools or a cab named SIPChange.
Installed th .CAB file that already puts the program in root\program files, but it does not work om my HD2. The only thing I see after enabling Swype, is a black square that fills up the left half of the screen. I'm using Dutch ROM 1.43. Any ideas/suggestions how to get it to work?
regards, Kuzibri
OK, after downloading the .CAB file from different sources, I got it working. First impression: Not much difference with SlideIT, but can be judged only when there is a Dutch dict for Swype. Anyone?
Now I have this error message with SlideIT:
(3)missing lang data!!!
What can I do? Impossible to uninstall/install the cab.
Hello,
I bought A HTC HD2 and it is graet, but I miss the Stylus for some older Apps and I miss the Transcriber Handwriting-Letter Recogntion. I tryed yet to install some Transcriber-Addon, but it's not aviable in the Menu of Letter Inserting Methodes. Sad!
I want to use it and write with my Fingers on the Screen - for me this would be much easyer!
Who has some Idea for me, some Option, Tool or Application?
Thanks A Lot. Manuel

capastive screens doesnot support handwriting recognition nor the stylus as it is not sensitive like resistive screens
Finger Writing on the Screen
I know, that Stylus is not supported with this Kind of Screen.
But I want to write Letter with my Fingers on the Screen directly. So how can I make the Transcriber Programm be aviable at the Menu and in Programms? Who knowes where I can load some Version for HTC Leo HD2?
Thank you. Manuel

you could try the SlideIt keyboard. It has a Graffiti part which enables you to write on the screen with your fingers!!

I suggest to try Swype. You might forget the Transcriber .
I can't help with Transcriber... but make sure you install this if you do use it;

That's wrong, sorry !
In the french release of official 1.48 HTC ROM, you can find in windows folder the program transcriber.exe.
Make a shortcut for it where you want, and when you launch it on the Touch HD2, you can appreciate handwriting recognition, better than ever.
Unfortunately, i've not yet found the way to make it work as a keyboard option
yeah....it recognize "lol" as "Re :" , what a usefull app :<
Make your own Keyboards aviable for an Option in Leo Keyboard Menu (How?)

how to do that?
.
If you run the transcriber app then it stays running till you close it (by selecting a different input type). Any app where you need to type will accept input in the form of handwriting on the screen.
Open file explorer
Navigate to the windows folder
Locate and run Transcriber
Close file explorer
Create a new SMS message
"Tap to compose text"
Write on the screen
It just works
On my HD I used a cab called "miri transcriber"... as the name says it comes from Miri. After reading this post I install it on my HD2 (WWE ROM)... an it works as you said.
Of couse you have to launch manually the "transcriber.exe" in te windows folder. If you need, just create a shortcut with total commander.
Anyway, I really miss my HD stylus.
Hi :
Newish Member so forgive ignorance.
But how good is writing with your fingers ?
Can you use anything less thick ?
Have heard that Asian Markets may have a stylus available soon.
Anybody know anything ?
Also will have access to an older HTC Touch2.
This fortunatley has a stylus.
But Transcriber has been disabled (T-Mobile UK; Win 6.5 ROM)
Can this method be used to enable it ?
Also where is Swype available from and what is installation process ?
Thanks in advance
Seeker10
H i
just install it
I use QuickMenu to change SIP
(btW: I used Transcriper to write this )
Cheers
Micha
any idea how i can get transciber working? i have got the letter and block rec working but cant find transcriber.exe ? where is it located?
I have been using Swype keyboard for some time and absolutely love it, but have been annoyed about it not having special letters such as used in Scandinavia.
Then Yesterday I fell over a similar keyboard called SlideIt and that works same way as Swype, it just have support for all European languages plus Arabic and Hebrew, plus you can make abbreviations and as a benefit to all those that don't use WM you can also get it for Android and Symbian.
Price is a reasonable 7.99 USD
You read about here: http://www.mobiletextinput.com/
U are scandiavian? Does the keyboard support ÆØÅ?
Yes, I'm Danish.
Yes, as I wrote then it supports all European languages, you download a language pack of your choice, mine was of course Danish and you can just download the Norwegian language pack and in options you choose the language you want as Primary and which one you want as secondary and voila you have all the special characters for Norway.
The only issue is when you have used Swype for some time is that the buttons are a little smaller, but that only takes a day to get used to.
ok, and it works when u flip the phone to the side?
Have to check out the videos on youtube before i decide...
But if anyone else have used this, i would like to know about the feedback..
Brilliant, abselutly brilliant....

SlideIT is the no.1 keyboard for my/the HD2. Far superior over Swype IMHO.

Thanks!!! Certainly the new version kicks the hell out of Swype.
Im Norwegian and have been using SwipeIT since the start. Works fine, but the only issue i have is that it does not work in landscape mode. The keyboard turns all white and the letters are not visible.
Think this is a know'n problem since i have heard some other reports on the same.

it is fixed in the new version, works like a charm
It is really a great keyboard! One issue I have is that it does not detect text selection in HTC Messaging application. I don't think the problem is with SlideIT since it works fine on another text application like Pocket Notepad, and also Swype does not detect selected text also... So probably a problem with HTC Messaging app text selection method...
Anyway it is a great input method and works very good!

Double tap selection never works in HTC Messaging. Long press/hold on the word brings up the editing menu. It's stupid, in my view.

Yeah, I know about the long press editing menu. but even if I select a word with the little pointers (or whatever that things are called) SlideIT does not detect it, so I cannot add/edit/remove that word to/from the SlideIT dictionary like the video here: http://www.mobiletextinput.com/Product/SlideIT/Corrections.php

Ah, yes. I guess that is why so many people are disabling HTC Messaging and using the WM default client. It's better in these areas, but it looks like crap.

Hi all!
Have just installed SlideIT and i think if i give it some time i will use it before the HD2 original one. But, is there some better looking skins for it? Or at least one with slightly bigger buttons?
Have googled it but i can't find anything that points me in any way that says that someone is making or are going make skins for it.
Can it be done?
In PDF User Manual, I read this:
"The user has the option to introduce a large number of new words into the dictionary rapidly or to even use a customized dictionary. To do this, create a file containing the new words on a PC and then move the file to the device. The user must open the file and select all of its content. Next, tap on the indicator ‘+’. The bulk update is then performed. Note that the maximum length of the selected text is 1000 characters."
But which kind of file I've to create, where I've to put it, and how can I access to it from the keyboard ?
