Hello,
I was using Mighty Rom 5 and my hardware keyboard just stopped working totally.. I did a hard reset and had the same issue.. Re-flashed the phone and its working good again, no more keyboard issues.
Now the problem is when I type in a name in the TO: feild, it won't auto populate the perons i'm trying to get to any more.
For example I would type out Der and at the bottom of my scree it would say derek s., i could click on that name and it would fill out his number. Now i have to click the to field and select the name that way.
i've tired turning on the predictive text, auto-correct, suggest new words (none of them will work even in texts).. I've messed with other options as well, nothing works.
The odd thing is I used to be able to hit FN-spacebar and get T9 menu, doesn't work anymore either. Maybe part of the new rom update.
suggestions?
On thing I noticed is that when I go to settings and personal, input options, I only have 4 options, Keyboard, block recognizer, fingerkeyb(i installed that one) and letter recognizer.. I don't have the full qwerty option or the others..
well after flashing the phone, going back to stock and trying everthing else I can think of, I found a fix.
Take a hammer, smash the phone, get the new palm.
Thats the last HTC phone I will evey buy.. I replaced my mogul 3 times, and i'm on my 4th HTC Touch Pro (all hardware keybaord issues, or this software crap).
HTC can suck my D***

Keyboard lag is driving me nuts. Regardless of which rom I use, it's still there in one form or another.
I either get missed characters, too many characters (a problem someone else mentioned with Dutty's latest hybrid), or the thing just gets incredibly sluggish with presenting key presses.
It's almost like there's some background process that needs to clear out before the keyboard gets the full attention of the device.
Anyone got any ideas?
try turning off "Word Completion" feature, it might help
"Start" ==> "Settings" ==> "Personal" Tab ==> "Input" ==> "Word Completion" Tab ==> Uncheck
Good luck
Ive tried that and its still lagging

If you have TITL and flashed HTC rom, install the attached CAB file and SR.
If you have TyTN II and flashed AT&T rom, do this:
Remove the following value from your registry:
Find this key: HKLM\Hardware\Devicemap\Keybd
Either delete "CWSLayout" or set it = 0

I've got a original TyTN II and mine lags aswel
I quit using the keyboard altogether. I use the cootek keyboard (http://www.cootek.com/index.html) I can type faster on it than the keyboard anyway. Just took a couple of days to get used to it.

It's nice to know I'm not alone in this then. It seems a real shame that a device as powerful as the Kaiser still has these problems with keyboard lag.
I might try installing a touch screen one again. But then, if I'm not going to use the keyboard, I might as well go back to my Touch
What about settings/buttons/up/down control I usually increase the repeat rate a bit and it improves for me.
In addition to turning off Word Completion, I also unchecked the Autocorrect option.
I immediately noticed that all of my keyboard lag problems disappeared.
Tried all of the above so far, and still have the problem. To be honest this single thing makes me want to get rid of the Kaiser completely. It's so annoying!
ok heres my problem..... i have an att tilt and i flashed to the HTC rom but now my symbol keys are different and i ran the keyboard fix and its still the same same anyone have any suggestions?

Follow the instructions in TaurusBullba's thread about the Tilt keyboard here. Worked for me when I was running HTC-based roms.
this problem is a mixture of things such as your Kaiser going through the stored words with Auto-correct on as well as other things. the best thing to do is turn auto-correct and complete off as well as increase the repeat rate set the first delay to short and repeat rate to fast and you should be good to go. also clear your stored words list every day and it will type as fast as your fingers can go.
Please, someone answer the question: does everyone have this stupid keyboard lag/double letter problem or is it just some units? I want to know whether it's worth demanding a replacement or if I will just get the same problem all over again
I just changed my settings to the above posts and my tilt is fast now.
No lagging problems.
Hi:
I have a 2 week old Tilt (stock ROM), no keyboard lag at all.

I was having the same EXACT issues as everyone was complaining about but once I increased both rates in my button option and went to the "input" and xt9 option in programs(I have that because I have the dualtouch rom from dutty) and turned off word completion and all the rest of the options, I have absolutely no lag now.

If you will go to settings -> buttons and raise the repeat speed it will fix this problem.
Tweak it up and down until you get it where you like it. I noticed that if i put it all the way up it was putting in too many letters.
Hey, this is only my second post here. I kinda feel like a leech since all I ever do is look around and try to gain some knowledge for myself.
But I was hoping nobody would mind and maybe try for some help.
Anyways, I tried doing some searching through the forums but couldn't find anything on this.
About a week or two ago I just updated my fuze to the htc 5.11.502.2 rom.
Besides the stupid problem of texts not getting marked read I have found another weird little problem.
My on screen keyboards are a little messed up.
When I goto "Phone Keypad" (whether it be for SMS or anything else) it brings up the keypad and looks how it is supposed to. Although whenever I click a button to try and spell something out... well it does not give me a letter at all, just the number associated with that button.
Then if I goto select my "compact qwerty" keyboard it does the same thing. brings up the keyboard and i see the letters, but whenever I hit a letter it types a number instead.
then sometimes it will actually show the numbers... but the "ABC" box will be greyed out and i wont be able to select it.
yeah i know i suck for using the htc roms, but i never really wanted to put the effort into looking for a custom rom, there are so many choices i didn't even bother looking. i would have gone crazy because there are so many choices and i am a very indecisive person.
so anyways. do i have to hard reset? or is there some quick fix i can do?
heres a question for yall.... my fuze has a keyboard issue. for awhile i was not able to use the t9 when it came to txt entery but then it progressed into an issue were i can no longer use the alpha part of the keyboard. for example lets say the user is going to type in an address all that would come out are numbers. so personally i am kinda lost i have never had this happen before so i am open to all suggestions

Hello Rastlin,
I had the same issue. Do you have "Diamond Tweak" installed on your device? For me, I had that program installed and had "T9 always on" checked. This is when I started to experience your issue. After turning things on and off and tweaking settings, I found that checking/unchecking that mode affected the keyboard. If this program doesn't apply to you then I don't know of any other solution.
Hi all, been lurking for a while but thought I would finally post up.
Having an issue with my Nexus S on stock ROM v2.3.3. It isn't the same issues with the keyboard disappearing etc but it is an issue with the keyboard not inputting text when I type.
If I am typing a SMS reply to someone on my phone and I pause for a few seconds (to talk to someone for example) then I try to continue typing, the keyboard acts like its typing but does not actually type anything else into the message. The only fix I have managed to discover is exit the SMS so that a draft gets saved then once I go back into the message it works again.
Don't know if that is a clear enough description but if anyone else has any suggestions or even a fix for it then it would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Yeah I have that too sometimes. What also happens to me about every week is, that the smiley sections' and the (particularly important for me since I'm from Austria and using the German keyboard ü-ö-ä) special buttons and symbols' pop up extension (hard to describe, but I mean the thing that pops up when you put your finger on the expandable tile for like 2 second and which let's you select the unusual symbols from a list) simply will not pop up. So it would make it impossible for me to choose from the pre-created smileys etc.
I have found out that changing your input method to another keyboard (I use SwiftKey in these cases) and then changing it back Android keyboard make the problems disappear. But they seem to come back regularly and I haven't found out what causes them to appear...
Any help?
Hi all,
So, I'm having a bizarre issue with Samsung Keyboard on my Verizon Galaxy S7. I use the auto correct (auto replace) feature, and it normally does a very good job of catching typos and whatnot. But, it does something really strange when I end a sentence with an exclamation point (!) or question mark (?).
It replaces the entire word before this mark with something totally unrelated. Like for example, if I type "Yeah!", I hit the space bar, and it gets replaced with something like "The!", or "I!". My girlfriend has the same issue on her Galaxy S7. We never had this issue on our previous Samsung phones. This seems to only happen with Samsung Keyboard. But, I would like it if I didn't have to switch keyboards, or turn off Auto correct. Any ideas?
Here's what I've tried so far:
Clear cache and data on Samsung Keyboard
Disable Sync on Samsung Account
Disable various keyboard features, like Auto spacing and Auto punctuate
Factory reset
Thanks in advance!
OMG! Thank God someone else is experiencing this too because I thought I was going crazy LOL. I've been sharing the below post everywhere I can -- I sure hope Samsung fixes it soon because it's very irritating.
I have the s7 and I HATE the autocorrect. I use exclamation points a lot and every time you end a sentence with one it autocorrects the final word in the sentence to something completely random. For example, I typed "I don't understand how!" and it autocorrected how to "why." I typed "Why, does this phone?" and it autocorrected phone to "mean." I typed "Those poor kids are probably starving" and it autocorrect starving to "the." It's the most frustrating thing ever and happens every time I type a text message. I've never wanted to chuck a phone across the room more than when I'm texting on the S7. I've contacted Samsung support, twice, and they pretty much told me I was crazy. So, I figure I'll find every review post on the S7 and post about my issue to see if someone somewhere in the Samsung world can release a software fix for this stupid phone.
Yeah this drives me crazy as well. It's very inaccurate. Maybe a new keyboard like swift key? With the stock one you are better off just tapping

Yes!! I'm so glad too that I'm not the only one experiencing this. I have been searching like crazy, and haven't found this issue listed anywhere.
So sounds like the only fix at this point is a custom keyboard. I hope they fix this soon. Thanks for the replies!
Ok, I have an update. I went into Settings > Language and Input > Samsung Keyboard > Add input languages. There was an "Update" button next to "English (US)". I downloaded this update. Since then, the problem seems to have diminished somewhat. I still see it, but it's kinda 50/50 now.
If somebody else wants to try this, let me know what kind of results you get. Thanks!
I managed to correct the problem! Under Settings > Language > Samsung Keyboard > Add Input Languages > More > Check for updates!!! So relieved!
Issues with Autocorrect on Samsung Keyboard? Completely wrong word replacement
Just use the Kii keyboard app. Free and does what you want.
I fixed it! I went to the Samsung keyboard in settings and changed the Keyboard Swipe to None. Boom! Instantly fixed!
i always loved the samsung keyboard but after the nougat update i move to gboard and think ill stay here for a while because i think the autocorrection works far better and love that you can have multiple languages at the same time rather then to switch between each one of the sammy.
I thought it was only me.... I used to save Roman Urdu words saved in my dictionary and it automatically used to replace the correct words as I zipped along.. no longer working right for me and I am so frustrated by it.. software update screwed my fav keyboard

i get the same issues when i text on my Samsung s7 phone but mine does it anywhere in my text not necessarily at the end, im thinking about spending muy money on iphone instead cause this is driving me nuts! get tired of having tip go back and fix words on a constant basis or re-text because person reading it can't understand what i said.
Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Predictive Text and Auto Replace
I was having the same problem (a word being suggested that was totally off from what was being typed and that wacky word replacing the correct word). The fix was keeping the predictive text on but turning the auto replace off. For my phone/software I got to these by:
1. Settings
2. General Management
3. Language And Time - Language and Input
4. Keyboards - Virtual Keyboard
5. Samsung Keyboard
6. Smart Typing - Predictive Text
The Predictive Text should be on, but the Auto Replace should be off
With the settings as described, the words I use a lot while texting (for instance "thanks" and "ok") show up under where I'm typing the text and I can tap them to save time, but the whole deal where some wacky word comes up and then replaces the word you wanted unless you hit the arrow goes away. I hope this is helpful.
it's 2018 and im still having this issue. I'll type in love and 100% of the time it switches to live. I mean, I use live too so i don't want to delete it. This issue makes me take atleast twice as long to type one message. I had it turned off for a long time and that was my solution, but if they have a feature, I want to ****ing use it. I NEVER had this issue on my previous Samsungs and i've only ever had Samsung "smart" phones.
