Palm Treo 500v - Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other

Hi everyone. I recently bought mentioned smartphone. There are two problems with it.
The vodafone menu- how to disable it? It's so slow...
And the major problem, the qwertz keyboard. Is there any simple metod to change places of y and z keys? It drives me crazy. This is realy important guys.
Oh, and sorry for my poor english.

if you find how to disable the vodafone menu, let me know please

Here you can find something useful. I think we should just map start menu to the softkey. Too bad I don't know which .exe launches it.
Voda menu process is launched not on system start but on keypress I guess. So we can have a little more memmory available. I mapped right softkey to the "Main menu" and my device runs smoother. Try this

HTC Touch Keyboard

Anyone knows how to remove this black banner
When i type a recipientname i only get one name and this black banner
also with the message i type
disable xt9 and word suggestion
I did disabled the word completion, bud where to complete disable te xt9 ?
input methode => touch keyboard => i remove the checkbox there
Weird thing is, it doesn't show up every time you use the keyboard. In one screen it does and in the other screen it doesn't (or I'm blind).
The settings you changed should work I think.. lemme see:
start -> settings -> input -> *select 'Touch keyboard' from list* -> options -> XT9 settings.
In the XT9 settings you can turn off word completion etc.
However, I'm not sure if that also turns it off for the normal keyboard. I would assume it does, but you know what they say about assumptions eh
After this regtweak
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Tegic\eT9\
and change the key "XT9SupportMSSip" from value "1" to "0"
The black banner bellow is gone for keyboard input, the input sms recipients its still there and have only one name instead of the hole list with email names.
Try this. Will Disable xt9
Works great thanks
I have exactly the opposite problem - Word Completion doesn't work at all even though I set ip up several times in the "Input" menu (in "Settings").
Any suggestions??
Thanks.

Does that also disable T9 for the Touch Keyboard and Keypad?
Hi, I tried this CAB file and it works for the DUAL. May be you guys can give it a try. I got it from the HTC website. Good Luck!
Hi, I've also been irritated by the new XT9 on my HTC Touch Cruise. I have managed to stop the XT9 black bar coming up when using the standard jeyboard, but how do I get the original windows word suggestion to come back up? I have become very fast at using the windows word suggestion on my old HTC Artemis and like how it suggests a word but does not replace the one you're typing before you click on the suggestion.

I would like to know this aswell, I become very fond of this on my Orbit 1 (artemis) and liked that it learned words that you used frequently.
Exactly, I had the Orbit 1 and have now upgraded to the Orbit 2. The way it learned words was great, but it didn't interfere with what you were typing. I'd rather it assumed I was correct and let me choose when to go with it's suggestion.
Ah ha! I have managed to rid myself of the XT9 and get the nice old native pocket pc word suggestion back!
I installed PocketCM Keyboard. That's it.
As I was typing on the new keybaord I noticed word suggestions coming up as well as the PocketCM Keyboard suggestions. I then swithced back to the standard keybaord and the classic word suggestion was back! I went into word suggestion options and changed it to my favourite settings and hey presto, it's working as good as the old one was. It also gives me the nice standard list of contacts when typing a name into my SMS 'to' field. Fantastic.
I don't know if it was a fluke or if it would happen every time you install PocketCM Keyboard, try it out. I don't know if you can get the XT9 back though, and the XT9 doesn't work for the touch keyaord and keypad now either rendering them practically useless, so be warned.
I also haven't reset the phone since this discovery so i don't know if it's permanent, but, crossed fingers...

How I can completely swich off Touch keyboard and Touch keypad?

I don't know of any way to switch off the touch keybaord and keypad, but you can switch to another keyboard easily enough. If it's the black bar with predictive text in it you can switch it off pressing the XT9/ABC button on the touch keyboard, then using the keyboard of your choice. However this does not replace the XT9 predictive tet with the old style word prediction. The only way I found to do that was to install PCM Keyboard. I don't know why that reactivated the old style word prediction but it did.
Also, in addition to my previous post, i have reset my phone a number of times and the old style word predition has stayed. It seems to be a permanent solution, even if i don't know why it works.
I hope that helped.

Thanks Swidge. You are awesome!

How do I disable the keyboard???

Hi there,
here's a question relating to the soft-keyboard:
I noticed that with some applications (e.g. PHM reg editor) when I want to punch in a value and hit the corresponding field the keyboard will pop up (which is perfect so far). Now, the keyboard sometimes hides the OK button which I'd have to hit to accept the changes but somehow I can't convince the keyboard to go back where it came from - there's no button to disable or change it (like the "12" button you sometimes see in the bottom).
What can I do to get rid of the keyboard in such situations? Is there maybe a hardware button??
Thanks a lot
There's an icon between the soft keys on the bottom of the screen that changes according to the desired input method. Touch that and a keyboard will magically disappear, regardless of the selected input method.
The input method icon, is always displayed when there's a possibility for text input.
ps.: RTM

Read the manual and like I said:
There's NO icon displayed at the bottom of the screen!
Then use another program, that's the best workaround that i can come up whith..
Or there's the possibilty of a greater underlying problem that would need a Hard Reset to fix it... so far you're the first whith this problem...
Indeed, I've had this too before, try using WM6 compatbile software, I though that was my problem a few weeks ago. An example is Mozilla Minimo, which is horrible on WM6, not being able to remove the keyboard, or even better, hiding it, but not refreshing the contents behind the keyboard

Exactly, Minimo is another one of those applications that show this problem.
How about changing your default kb to something else?
There is a reg hack to disable the SIP from displaying when you put focus on any text field, but that is not a good solution for a device that doesn't have a physical kb. I use it on my Treo 750 since I don't need the SIP. However, on the TC, it would make much sense.
On a bit of a side note, I have heard that if TC owners want to use another kb besides the standard Xt9 version, you need to apply the following to disable it:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Layouts\e0010409
Ime File=\windows\compime.dll
Layout Text=COMP IME
To Turn on again
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Layouts\e0010409
Ime File=\windows\eT9Ime.dll
Layout Text=eT9 IME
Did your registry tweaks will stop pop up of any keyboard when accessing a text area?
That's what I 'm looking for. Because I installed a full screen keyboard and I use it with a button.
Thxs.
up!!!
Pleaaaaase'!
This app will keep the keyboard from poping up automatically. You can still open it manually. I've not tried it with WM6.

Thanks a lot!
It works!
what full screen keyboard are you using?
I use SPB full keyboard.

Acer Dx900

Hi all
i got myself one of these nice machines, apart from the battery life, i quite like it.
however, everytime i touch any buttons, it turns on. is there anyway to only select it to turn on when pressing power button?i cant find anything in the settings tabs (im running wm6.5 by the way)
thanks for the help, any program or registry setting that does that, id be willing to try!
also, does anyone know where the backlight.exe (or if it is under any other name) is situated?i want to make a shortcut to it on the home screen, but cant find the file in the windows directory!
I've been looking for it too...
Open the battery-settings.
And choose the upper option.
...by the way, how did you upgrade to wm6.5?
I'm still running 6.1

Hardware Keyboard Problem

Okayy ive got a problem with my htc touch pro keyboard.
I had just brought my touch pro (brand new) recently and i have been looking all over the internet trying to find a solution to my problem. .
My hardware keyboard is all wrong, the letters are fine, but its the numbers i am having a problem with.
for example, when i press number "1" it will bring up the start menu, when i press number "2" the "@" symbol will come up, when i press number "3" the underscore symbol will come up. and so on.
I had looked at every single setting on the device and no luck.
. i was really disappointed and i couldnt do anything about it.
Could anyone please help me.
Thanks In Advance

Keyboard driver replace/ long response time

Hai. I'd like to know is there any replacement of original keyboard driver. Why do i like to change it? I've had lots of phones (non-wm too) and they responded to key immediately, but writing on Wizard, Vox, i-mate Jaq3 was a horrible experience. I feel when keys 'tap', so i've never need to take a look on keyboard while typing (like on computer), but i've noticed such long delays between keypress and a letter on screen. More, some keypresses are ignored in my opinion, because tapping three times '4' sometimes gives me 'h' in exchange of expected 'i'. Even overclocking does not solved my problem.
Only on Samsung i600 keys were buffered correctly, i mean that when writing a long e-mail response time was significantly longer than on message's top(when she was short), but after a short while correct letters appeared.
Here on vox keypresses are just ignored. Problem persist when usign qwerty kbd, so that's why i thought about keyboard driver.
Anyone noticed such issue?
BTW, i have orange branded e650, and i don't want to change rom because of warranty.
Please, help.
Mkay, by modifying registry's values i've understood that problem is not in keyboard driver, but in t9 dlls.
When i delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9 (whole), keyboard seem to act normally. Of course dialpad acts only as numeric keypad, also 'fn' and 'cap' keys does not modify keyboard's behavior (even leds are not lightning up).
I srsly need to work this out. Little help would be really appreciated
I feel like writing posts to myself
Anyways, i've managed to get rid of XT9 IME.
Followind advices in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=354914&page=6 I've changed HKLM\system\currentcontrolset\control\layouts\e001 0409 to phoneime.dll, ET VOILA! Dialpad response immediatly, qwerty too, but problem is that modifiers as shift and fn does not work.
Now i need to figure this out...
