Number pad, keyboard and navigation control issues - HTC Vox

Hello all any help with this would be appreciated.
The Soft keys on my Vox just don't work any more. When I press the start button there is a little bit of white and that's it. If I pull out the keyboard I can press start. Also I cannot use the navigational pad up or down but can use it to move left or right.
When I press 1 sometimes 12 shows up when I press 7 sometimes 78 shows up.
On the keyboard r gives me q, i gives me h, x gives me w, c gives me a.
Thanks much in advance for your help.
I have done multiple rom flashing from the shipped ones to those made others same result.

may you need to get right keyboard layout
and maybe your hw is damaged or flexcable jumped off connector.
check your keyboardmats and reflash original rom

Thanks for the reply.
How do I go about getting the right keyboard layout?
What's "hw" and how do I check my keyboard mats?
Sorry for all the questions just need to know what these things are and mean.
Thanks much once again in advance.

Could the lack of a dedicated windows hardware button be a deal-breaker

Hi.
I notice the Touch-Cruise lacks the Windows button that activates the start menu (like on the HTC Trinity).
Does this mean you have to use the stylus every time you want to open the start menu and go down to programs.
If so that would suck wouldn't it?
Or is there some other way of activating the start menu without the stylus?
Otherwise this device ticks all the boxes for me.
Any advice appreciated.
Thanks.

You can map any hardware button you like to it. I use the one below the green button.

How do you do that.
(Sorry if this sounds like a basic question but I don't actually have the device at the moment. I'm seriously thinking of getting it though )
Also how do you like the device overall?

Start>settings>buttons and change whatevr you want.
If it was not good there would not be so much clamouring for it Perfect untill I find a better one
get o2 orbit 2, it has also the windows picture on the button

Cheers.
Strangely enough when you go into settings>buttons on my Trinity there's no option to change the buttons below the screen.
You can only reassign the buttons on the sides of the device.
But with the Touch-Cruise you're positive you can re-assign the buttons BELOW the screen, right?
Thanks.

Think he means winmo 6.5x too tired to explain,someone help the guy out
Older version of winmo6.5 have start icon on top left, newer ones have it on a bottom bar, so is the ok button and all the others. Is this what you are trying to say?
No way to change it unless you flash a new rom.
No way to flash a new rom without HSPL.
Good luck!
Yeah I'm guessing he is talking about 6.5X v 6.5 as well.
If your start menu is in the upper left corner of your screen you have 6.5
If you have the start menu in the lower left corner of your screen you have 6.5x.
While they are pretty much the same operating system, they are very much different.
It is possible to change the top and bottom bars with a cab, but it is not possible to put the 6.5x soft bar on the 6.5 op system or visa versa.
here is a link to a post with different top and bottom soft keys you might be able to try.
I hope this helps.

Did you get the bottom softbar changed like you wanted?
What phone do you have?
What windows version? 6.5xxx or 6.5 or ?
What ROM Version?
You can find all this in your settings under About Phone...Software Information
no im gonna try right now and i will let u know and thank everyone so much for helping me on other sites i dnt even get a reply so agin thank u guys
and its a 6.5 i guess my start is in the uper left hand side is that good or bad
and ive already tried at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=642832 and i downloaded some and its not showing up at all it does ask to soft reset my phone like all other downloads and i did it but its not showing up
The supposedly more stable "COM2"/6.5 builds are what your phone's OS is from.
There are a different branch, "COM5"/6.5.x, which offer a more finger-friendly User Interface and have a different layout (start button is on bottom left corner on a taller bottom bar).
The link you provided, however, is for 6.5 builds and does work for your phone. Maybe you need to go into Start>Settings>Home and change the theme there.
I don't customise the graphics that much on my phone so I'm not sure if that's all that's necessary or if that's the correct method but it shouldn't hurt to try

It's there just need to do another step to get it to show up...
Go to Settings/menu-All settings/today.
Pic a wall paper and then touch OK.
then go back to Today, and select T-moble (or your default paper). then close it out to your today screen. The soft bar should be there now.
Cheers!
yes your richt thank u so much

Swype, keyboard, weird menu popped up?

I was curious about my Swype keyboard on my Galaxy.
I hit something by accident and the input keyboard area turned into a bunch of big buttons with arrows and direction on them.
Anyone know what this is or how to get it to show again?
I hit the return key fast before I realized it was too late. lol
Thanks.

Swype from the tips key (the one in the bottom left) to the SYM key (the one to the right of it) and you'll pull up a new set of inputs designed to help you navigate text.
for me the swype keyboard keeps freezing and i have to switch inputs to the regular keyboard, then back to swype to reset it. it will last for about a day then freezes up again. I'm running a stock rom on evo 3d. im planning on rooting and running a custom rom, but i was wondering if it happens to more than just my phone.

[Q] help with issue

I am new to this device and am having some issues
I loaded some apps on it and now I am unable to get the key board up. The hand writing works and the hand writing recognition to text work but I can't seem to find the keyboard.
I wish there was a place to go to get a full tutorial on how to use the device as well.
any help would be appreciated.
If you are using the default keyboard, then in the script mode, you should see an icon that looks like a keyboard on the left side of the space bar. Tap it and you should be switched to the keyboard screen. If you long press it then you will see 3 icons pop up one for voice one for toggling between keyboard and script and the last one for settings.

[Q] Keyboard issue ?

I imagine i have missed something simple, but since i have had my Moto G back the keyboard is different,
I'm missing the long press options for punctuation, the numbers are there but nothing else ?
The phone updated to latest after i got it back , factory reset then installing bits again but then noticed keyboard and cannot find options for this.
I have always used these long press keys and never installed anything extra or changed any settings so this is confusing, i have another 4.4.2 device and they are there on that too.
Has this been removed on Moto G now ? if so any suggestions for free replacement keyboard with long press punctuation ?
They are there, but they aren't indicated anymore. They seem to be grouped together like the bracket symbols. If they can be long pressed, when you long press them there will be "..." in the bottom right corner. I think you can reduce the delay before they show in the settings for the keyboard somewhere.
almost , but i got it now.
I was trying them anyway and they dont work , like for example i think 'K' was for ? , but it does nothing.
The point on the dots ... was spot on though , any key with options has them at bottom right - all your basic punctuation is under the full stop key . , hold it down and you can select .?!:",# which is actually better, just have to get used to it.
I guess this change came with the latest moto g firmware, i cant see anything on change log though.... https://motorola-global-en-uk.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/98313/action/auth
Thanks for the hint eastdata.
No worries.
I'm trying to wrap it around my head too. I couldn't find the "<>" symbols.
Thanks for the link, I didn't realize that the OTA was a free download.
