Does anyone else have this problem with their Tilt?

Alright this is what happeneds, everything works great, im using duttys 2k v3 Dual touch ( called somthing along those lines) and what is happening alot is that the keyboard is not keeping up with what i am typing..
I am also using Palm Threaded SMS messaging.
Alot of times the spacebar doesnt work when i want it to i have to repress it.. and it doesnt type as fast as i am inputing it. Is there anything i can do?

Yes this same thing happens for me too. It gets very annoying.

is there anything to do to fix it or is it just how it is?

Tilt keyboard fix
I am newer than new but I've been reading a lot and it could be that you need to install "Tilt keyboard fix.cab" which can be found at:
http://www.cinetsystems.com/xda/index.php?path=Kaiser+Cab+Collections/

and i'm here thinking i'm the only one with this problem. and the tilt keyboard fix does not fix this problem.

Try the disable xt9 cab thats on the post with the touchdual v2 and v3 thread.

Thank goodness I'm not the only one with this problem. I was starting to think that my spacebar was going bad and was starting to panic!
Please post if anyone has a fix for this because it is driving me CRAZY.
And I don't know if anyone else is experiences this but sometime on my Tilt with Dutty's v2 my backspace key will act like the del key without having Fn lit up. What is even more bizarre is that it will randomly fix itself and randomly occur again.

Install this
Install this .cab
All should be well.

the disabling xT9 worked perfectly =) thanks!!!

Touch Pro in landscape

Hello Touch Pro owners,
I'm sure this question has been asked, and I'm sorry if it has, but...
one of the things that drives me crazy with the Hermes is the glitchy landscape view. Sometimes while in landscape, it decides to switch back to portrait, and sometimes doesn't go into landscape at all. If you were a Hermes user, you know what i'm talking about. I was hoping 6.1 would fix that, but is hasn't.
Do any of you have issues with the Touch Pro?

I surely didn't, when the keyboard was open it went to landscape and stayed there, and when it slid closed it popped back to portrait and stayed there as well. Same for applications, turn the device sideways it flips, turn it back it flips back.. Not 1 issue.

Actually, I don't; I'm still using my 8525, waiting for the "Fuze," and I don't recall ever seeing anything like that in the 19 months I've had it. I think you have a bum unit.

Have you applied new themes and customization tools (like Diamond Config)? Mine was perfect until I started applying a lot of the themes and tweaks. Now I'm having that issue. I plan on loading a cooked ROM once my travel is done. In the mean time, I have found it easier to use the virtual keyboard.

Don't think it's a bum unit, I've had a few and it's the same. I think it's most likely the shells I load. (spb and now the TF2d). I usually don't tweak and never OC the unit. But I do occassionaly load a cooked Rom, and I see the same things.
For example: I'll be emailing or texting in landscape, if I get any kind of alert, it switches to portrait and sticks there until I close it then open it again.
It's not a big deal, I've been dealing with it for awhile and still love the 8525, but Im upgrading to the Pro in a few weeks and I'm hoping I wont see this. I just expect the unit to be locked in landscape when the keyboard is pulled out no matter what shell I'm using, especially tf2d or 3d.

Slide out keyboard issue

Hi all,
I am new to this forum, so please bear with me if I have posted in the wrong section.
I am with T Mobile UK and I have the MDA Vario IV.
Recently, I have had a strange problem when using my slide out keyboard. When I use the onscreen keyboard, I can see the text as I type. However, when I use the slide out keyboard, I can see the cursor moving as I type, but I can't see the text being typed. This happens when composing an SMS, typing into Google's search box, entering log in details for Facebook, etc etc.
As I am Deaf, I obviously use SMS and emails a lot, so this is a problem, as I find the slide out keyboard MUCH easier to use than the onscreen one.
Hope you can help.
Wayne.

How fast do you begin typing after you slide out the keyboard? I know sometimes when I begin typing too quickly after sliding it out that the cursor will move while I'm typing but no letters will be displayed...but then they all pop up at once.

Have you used a tweaking tool or registry editor to turn on ClearType in Landscape?
There is a known issue with the font not displaying.

Hi mate...
Ahhh, that could be it...let me try it & get back to you.

You are correct David....that WAS the problem!
Thanks - all working fine now

keyboard lag solved - possible software conflict
I had tried all the above fixes and they helped, but did not fully alleviate the lag. I was getting annoyed and wishing my hermes was still alive.
Then I remembered that the only real difference in my keyboard setups between the fuze and the 8525 was that I was using the iphone like full qwerty sip instead of the keyboard sip. i selected the finger unfriendly keyboard sip, and voila the slide ouy now has instantaneous response. no lag at all.
It seems to be that the full qwerty sip option forces a t9 function even when you have all that turned off.
Happy again except for the laggy shift between portrait and land scape.
now to find an iphone sip clone that doesnt affect the slideout. By the way this is with the recent stock att rom.

further issues with keyboard
The lagging keyboard issue continues to nag me. it seems to be related to the fuze having a difficuly time with switching to landscape mode. for instance in opera mini when i switched to landscape to type this there is no lag. if I am using messaging for text or email, when I switch to landscape, the lag occurs until I change the sip. it doesnt matter which sip i change to or from, just that it gets changed. i suspect that it has something to do with resetting the keyboard drivers. anyone else noting this problem. Anyone know of a fix? I have t9x turned off, cleartype turned off.

Hi,
It would be better to modify the orientation to portrait and then check the box above for "System Persistent". It will gray out the orientation but lock it to any orientation you selected. ADW will no longer auto-rotate, but most apps will still auto-rotate to landscape.
I’m sure it will solve the problem.

that too, good call

Landscape Sense 4 keyboard is messed up?

Check out these pictures, whenever I press a letter in landscape mode, it auto-corrects to the letter to the right of it unless I press the letter unnaturally off to the left. Only in landscape, portrait works fine. Other keyboards work fine. Just the sense 4 one. It makes the keyboard useless in landscape though. Anyone else have this issue? Any ideas on how to fix it? I'm on the new viper rom. Wouldn't be a huge issue except for every time I try to type I in landscape mode it changes it to O.

Try and reflash your Rom WITHOUT wipeing. So you don't loose everything. Should fix it. hope I helped

No luck. Same problem. Also, whenever my battery is low, instead of a flashing red light, it's just solid. Why is that? It's happened to me before on sense roms.

Hey, I tested it and it happens when u select hide buttons in landscape.
U should use only hide in portrait , then it works perfectly
Hope I helped!

Sounds like this might be it. When I chose to hide the arrows during the aroma install, it ended up only hiding them for portrait mode. I still have them in landscape mode, and while it'll take getting used to them being there, it doesn't take up any extra space.
Beyond that, maybe you could run the keyboard calibration where it makes you type all the characters.

That did the trick! Thanks, it was driving me nuts. When you disable the arrows it doesn't readjust the touch calibration I guess for prediction. Portrait still works fine though so I'll keep them off there.
