Hello,
I have a Diamond, and I usually don't use T9 so I'm sorry if this seems stupid. On my old rom, it would correct small spelling errors when I made them. However, it would ALWAYS give me at least one 'suggestion' option of what I actually typed. That was nice, if i wanted to write something outside the dictionary or purposefully misspell something, it was always an option. 6.5 rom, btw.
Now, on a new 6.5.x, it doesnt do that. Say, for example, I type in "bbb". It won't give me that exact text as an option, and wont let it be added to the dictionary (no + symbol or anything). So I'd have to switch back to ABC to type that in.
Did T9 change, did I goof up a setting?

With my TyTN = Hermes and WM6.0 the autosuggestion of words seems much better than the Raphaels (at least in the hardware keybord stance).
Can someone explain why that is or if I have haven´t understood the utility or something else right?
With TyTN it basically suggests 4 alternatives in a diagonal way, it can be one word or SEVERAL words in a row, depending on what I´we written before. And you choose from them with the upp and down arrow keys. Simple and quick.
With Raphael it suggests several ONLY singular words horisontally, and if it´s not in the dictionary it automatically chooses another word than the one you´we just written (!?). Slow and awkward.
Also - who is behind this solution? Windows Mobile 6.1 or is it HTC Raphaels unique solution?
Thanks in advance
/Danne
Anybody have an opinion or information on this matter?
At least the system is a part of WM6.1 or if it´s Raphaels unique solution? Because I´m thinking about buying a Kaiser with WM6.1 instead and wonder if it has the same solution.
Sorry, no additional info, but I'm in the same boat so to speak.
I find it completely useless, specially since I don't always use English in my SMS messages, and I found that it becomes a nightmare if it doesn't find a match and then forces my word to something it thinks it should be.
What I cannot understand is that under Settings-Personal-Input-Word Completion - I have DISABLED it, but it still friking tries to complete my words, even in keyboard mode???
Do you know of another place to disable this dastardly excuse of a feature?
HAH!
Found it! If you want to disable it completely, the do the following:
1) make sure you disable it under settings - all settings - personal - Word Completion.
2) When you open a new message, bring up the virtual keyboard and look for the button that reads "ABC T9" - it has a toggle on the button, make sure it is on "ABC" and NOT T9 -voila!
Now I can SMS again!
I´m glad I was not the only one being irritated about this. But at least it´s possible to turn it off, so thanks for posting the solution Piie
I actually returned my TP because of this and severeal other reasons but I´m thinking about buying it again or some other WM6.1 phone. So do you know if your solution to turn if of works with Word Mobile documents as well?
And still, if somebody knows if it´s part of Raphael or WM6.1, please let me know.
Agreed 100% on the uselessness of word completion feature on the TP. On mine, the T9 feature actually slows the sms application so much as to make it completely unusable. This is probably my biggest complaint with this device.
Yip, following the steps as posted also removes the predictive text completely for Word ( and all other apps I have used so far)...
Thanks piie
I believe its part of the TP keyboard (SIP) not WM6.1 , when i had my kaiser with wm6.1 this "IRRITATING" issue was not there, but when i installed the diamond keyboard on my kaiser, this thing came out...... now its part of the TP because of its keyboard.......... so its HTC
I was getting annoyed with the behavior described in posts 1 and 2, disableds the whole thing too (I had an Excalibur before and it seemed to work far better on this particular aspect).
However, I decided to give the TP's T9 another shot and started changing it's configurations and finally got rid of the annoiance related: when on a text field, bring up the T9 options by pressing "Fn" + "Space", select "T9" settings and on the screen that appears uncheck the "Spell Correction" and "Auto-substitution" boxes.
Now I'm using the word prediction (T9) again just like I used in my old device, tipying much faster! (specially because I commonly write in portuguese and my keyboard is the UK one...).
Hope this helps you guys.
Cheers.
Sweet!
So you can still have predictive text, but remove the actual "irritant" of it overriding your word if it doesn't match it's dictionery - seems like that is the answer to your problem Danne?
For me - I really don't care for ANY kind of prediction - most often than not, even in English, the suggestions are maybe 30% usefull if that...
Great!
Yes, this is solution and now I know it´s part of Raphael/Diamond and not WM6.1!
Still, the Hermes WM6-solution with prediction of several words based on what you previously have written seems better. But I am happy with this!
I guess that´s the last words for me in this discussion.
Thanks guys!
just wondering how to disable word completion without installing htc ezinput, because at input settings by disabling it, doesn't work at all.
here's everything you need to know on how to get back to the old style autocorrect and change your dictionaries: http://www.fuzemobility.com/?p=1527
That however breaks your hardware keyboard
sym key will stop working and you can't get pound and euro sign using FN key....

Hi all,
maybe I did something wrong but here's my experience with Resco keyboard 5.11
I installed the multi language version as it's supposed to support the Dutch language.
Whilst installing it asks for a language preference and Dutch is not in the list. F&*k-up #1
After installing, one can select a primary language and in that list I fount Dutch.
The Resco keyboard is default automatically after installing it.
Whenever I try to type a message with the Resco keyboard it persists in skipping letters in words every now and then which is more often that I like. Aka, multiple times a message. I disabled every form of correction in the general keyboard settings and in the resco keyboard settings just in case and I also lowered the gesture sensitivity to minimal but that doesn't help.
I found out there is no Dutch T9 support in Resco keyboard 5.11 so what the f^&k is multi lingual about it? That it supprorts the Euro sumbol? Wow
Whilst the keyboard itself when it works, works better aka easier than the standard TP on screen keyboard because of the nice spacing between the keys but that's just about everything that is great about it as it's nearly impossible to complete half a decent Dutch text message without manually correcting the forced spaces in the middle of words many times.
Am I the only one experiencing such a hard time with this keybard? I've installed it numerous times on several roms now and it keeps behaving the same.

this has got nothing to do with diamond and youd be better putting it to resco
i have no problem with it (english)
youll probably need to make your own dutch t9 version, but surely it is in dutch...
did you try reinstalling?
although i tried changing language and nothing seemed to happen :s

Well, this is the Raphael forum And I've only tried it on my Raphael (TP) and would like to know what experience others have with resco keyboard + the raphael so I'd say I'm in the right spot to ask.
Why would I have to make my own dutch t9 version when it is supposed to be multi-lingual with support for the Dutch language?
As stated, I tried installing it on numerous rom versions and reinstalling it too.
hehe, my bad, didnt mean diamond...meant it would be generic to all devices, not specific to touch pro
and resco forums would be the best place to ask
I'm on the look for a new keyboard as i've been using Resco Keyboard for a while now but find myself deviating from it slowly. It just has to many problems for me and i'm pretty sure there's something better out their that suits me.
I have the Verizon version of the HTC Touch (VX6900). I have tried many keyboards including Zoomboard, HTC Diamond keyboard, Spb Full Screen Keyboard, PCM Keyboard, etc.
Can you suggest a keyboard that "learns" frequent words that you type and suggests them in the future so you can just hit the space bar to type out the word for you? For me I use the same words a lot and I would really benefit from that.
I know there are keyboards that suggest a word as you're typing it like if you start typing "thi" it will show you "thing" or something like that. I actually want a keyboard that will learn words that I type frequently and will suggest that word in future context.
For example if I type "I love that game", the next time I type "I", it will suggest "love" for my next word, then "that" after, etc. Before I updated to Windows Mobile 6.1, my keyboard actually used to do this, and I don't know which one installed that triggered this.
If I would type a word that I typed in the past then it would show the next word that I typed in the past next to it in a shadow color and I would just be able to hit the space bar to autocomplete that word. Does anybody know which keyboard that is? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Resco Keyboard - Touchpal 3.0
It will suggest words if you want and you can turn it off. It also allows you to change the format from one with multiple letters on one key to one letter per key.
Pretty good software.

Thanks for the reply but unfortunately I have tried both of those and they don't do what I am looking for. I am looking for a keyboard that will not only suggest words but will learn words and sequences of words that I've used in the past.
Before I updated to Windows Mobile 6.1 it was doing this. I have a feeling it was from a keyboard that I installed but I can't identify which one it was.
For example, let's say I sent a text message to a friend that said "Dude, did you see that Chargers game on Sunday?". Then if I forgot to send it to another friend I can start a new text message and as soon as I type "Dude", it will suggest "did" as my next word, then "you" as the next word after that, then "see" after that and so forth. The next word in line would show up as shadowed grey text and I would just keep pressing the space bar to add those words to my text message automatically.
Does this sound familiar to anyone? Thanks!
Touchpal does this, you can even set the priority of new words it learns. Best SIP IMO.

Hmm, it still isn't doing what I want it to do unless I'm doing something wrong. Any other suggestions? Thanks!
It was installing the extra keyboards which removed this feature. I use block recognizer, and before I tried out a load of different SIP's, WM6.1 did this. I seem to recall that WM5 and WM6 did as well.
The TouchPAL DOES do that I dont know whats wrong with your phone. It is absolutely everything anyone would want or need in a keyboard IMO lol
I think what you asked is just the standard function from the simplest default microsoft keyboard comes with the original OS. Maybe you need to enable & customize it on Start >> Settings >> Personal >> Input.
By the way, the 'Gesture' function is another very useful character of the default ms keyboard. The gesture is used in this way: You need to silde your stylus, starting from the key you want and ending at the nabourgh key. Example: Slide stylus from s to w key, it will come up with capital S, s to a = backspace, s to d = space, s to x = enter, while only tap on s is just an letter s. Very useful function.
Edit: Please also refer to this thread:
Word Completion does not work!
Hi there,
First thread here for me. I've recently purchased a Touch Pro 2 ( Rhodium T7373 ) model number RHO100. It's a UK branded (i'm from the UK) one from vodafone but unlocked and flashed with the recent winM 6.5 ROM from HTC.
So I'm living in Australia, but I regularly converse with people from China ( friends and business ) and I use the sogou pinyin input system on all my computers. I found out they provide an IME for Windows Mobile at shouji.sogou.com.
So I downloaded it and installed on my TP2. It works wonderfully, much better than that piece of trash CE-Star. So far so good....
Anyway, here's the rub:
It's a tiny tiny issue but seeing as I'm British and living in Australia, my communications through mobile are predominantly in English. Ever since I installed the sogou pinyin IME every time I soft reset the phone, the Sogou input system is activated by default. If I change it back to the english it will stay that way until another soft reset, and baboom, there is sogou.
Whilst I love the input system, I'm such an anal retentive when it comes to little details like this, I'd rather not have the input system and have my english default than have to change every time after a soft reset I want to input english.
Is there a quick decisive way to restore the "Full QWERTY" option as the default when I turn the phone on. I'm not scared of editing the registry directly. I just need pointing in the right direction, be it to software or a registry.
I've already done my own research and I got as far as finding the "default SIP" registry key, but unfortunately for me it it seems like it's an encoded value, i.e. a non human readable value and I have no reference values for the HTC default or any other.
Care to indulge me with a quick hit of registry magic? I've tried SIPChange and I don't like it, seems to error out on boot for my TP2. Thanks.

No dice people?
I feel your pain, pal. I know exactly what you're describing since I'm a bit anal too. Assuming you read Chinese, the following post may enlighten you a bit:
http://www.mobile01.com/topicdetail.php?f=129&t=944511
The post suggested editing the following registry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload\1\
Default=e0010404 -> Traditional Chinese
Default=e0010409 -> English
I am no master in registry editing, but from what I read, it appears that there are different Keyboard Layouts. Your TP2's default layout is e0010409 English. After you install Chinese IME, it changes to e0010404 Traditional Chinese, which is why your Sogou input system is activated after a soft reset. Now if you change that registry back e0010409, it will now default back to English AND DISABLING CHINESE INPUT in the process. With that said, since this registry can be changed on the fly, I assume you can write a MortScript to change swap them whenever you need to input Chinese.
Hope this helps and let me know if you ever come across a better solution.
I would also appreciate if someone here can better explain how these keyboard related registries work. I can read manuals, just need some good pointers, thanks!
Just found a better solution. Apparently PlumSIP http://www.dayhand.com/ is a Chinese input system that is registered as an English (e0010409) keyboard layout. That is, it can switch between Chinese and English input without touching the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload\1\Default registry.
With this setup, you will have English as default input method, and can switch to Chinese when you need to.
Found an even better solution. Sogou just puts a shortcut to it's own process in your \windows\startup\ directory. If you delete that, Sogou isn't the default SIP anymore. YES!
Used this solution for HTC HD Mini, and now am satisfied with the result after deleting from the Sogou shortcut from directory. Nice help here, thanks...

Is there any way to do this? I have looked all over the phone for a way to do this but I can't seem to find it. I would really like to add my own autocorrect words and such to the dictionary or whatever file it is that autocorrects come from. I know Smart Keyboard has this feature and it is super easy to use but I am having many issues with it, especially when I spell out a word that is in the autocorrect list in completion, it will assume I don't want the word, but another word with more letters.
i.e. "Adam" when typed out in completion will not stay on Adam, it will think I want "Adams", even if "Adam" is in my dictionary.
Any ideas/help?
If it matters that much, I have a Sprint Nexus S 4G that is running CM7 (stable). Thanks!
