My latest version of Swype (Ver. 3.26.92D.38303.t0.8611.ENSP) covers the text entry field so I can't see the text that I am inputting.
I didn't have this problem when using the previous version of Swype on Android 4.0. However after installing Android 4.0.4 and updating to the latest version of Swype that is supposed to have ICS support, I now experience this issue.
Does anybody know how to fix this? Is it an ICS issue (i've noticed it with other keyboards as well but it's worse with Swype) This has rendered the GoSMS popup window useless and also happens in the browser when inputting text as well as other apps. Very annoying.
I've been using SlideIt as a temporary measure but it sucks and the issue still happens with SlideIt as well but when I close the keyboard and reopen it the text field will move upwards and with Swype this doesn't work.
Did you type in portrait mode or landscape mode. for me portrait mode works ok. but I suffer the same problem in landscape mode.
Sry about my English. hope you understand.

i rarely use landscape mode.
This is so annoying i've stopped using swype. no replies, does this not effect anybody else???

Hello
I am using VITO SMS-CHAT for messaging. Unfortunately typing in landscape mode is invisible. It is same using either HW or SW keyboard. When switched to the portrait orientation the text is visible.
I would like to check it this is application specific issue or if it is caused by my configuration.
I am not using advanced config mode and cleartype is off.
Any SMS-Chat user with same problem?
Thanks
I have the same problem as well. I think it's listed in the wiki that this is a known issue but so far I haven't come a cross a solution for it. Still looking...
VITO SMS-CHAT invisible typing - fixed
There is a new update 1.15 on www.iwindowsmobile.com that solves the issue.
Also export to txt file is added…
I saw the new version as well and that does correct the invisible text issue but now there seems to be a lag when I use the software or hardware keyboard. It's not as fast and responsive as the previous version.
Even the newest 1.16 version still doesnt fix the problem on my 320x320 samsung i780. I need to turn off clear type for the text to be visible, not a very optimal solution.
1.16 version
I have the same problem on my Samsung Epix i907. However, the clear type option does not work for me. What I do is actually hit enter to page down into another line of text, then press delete to move back up. The text becomes visible then and also larger. It's annoying, but that's my way around it.
I'm trying to figure out what is wrong with my touch pro. When I do things like configure an e-mail account, or type in a URL into Opera or IE, in portrait mode, it is all good. Slide out the keyboard for typing and all the text in the field "shrinks" into a dot in the centre of the field!
Has anyone else observed this, it is getting quite frustrating as half the reason for buying the phone was the keyboard. However, the keyboard still functions as expected when typing SMS or e-mails!
TIA
Same issue here but I don't know why.
Check in see if Cleartype in landscape is checked in advanced config or fuze/diamond tweak. Keep it unchecked. I had a similar problem and this cleared it up for me.
Cheers
Done
Fixed it for me too! Love to know why! Does this mean I only have cleartype in portrait mode?
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.
Am I the only one experiencing this? Mainly on the browser. I don't mind lag, but when it lags it no longer auto corrects or changes spelling. It also will often type they symbol associated with the letter as it thinks I'm holding the key down.
Just thought Id point It out as I haven't seen any posts on it. I run ASK often so Its not a low memory issue, I have 40-50+ megs free in RAM with the program I'm typing in open.
Same..bad lag with the HTC keyboard...dunno if it happens with the stock keyboard since i haven't removed the htc one..same thing happened on my moment as well, bad lag with the keyboard.
Havent had much lag but when do have trouble sometimes getting the keyboard to open when trying to click into text fields..could be just in dolphin browser though not sure.
Hello,
I've since the update 10.5.8 and 10.5.9, I've got miss typing on the edge
When i'm typing a word starting on the edge/curve screen, the word is in 2nd position instead of 1st position :
meme => emem
pq => qp
aux => uax
autant => uatant
qd = dq
This is like pocophone when the phone get out there was a touchscreen bug for 6 months then they've fixed it so no more reverse letter
Now it's a regression from OnePlus because on previous firmware i didn't have any issue
I'm on stock rom just rooted and BL unlock
I'm the only one ?
It's happening the same to me. I'm going to try another keyboard app, I'm using Gboard.
Stock ROM here but not rooted.
Edit: it only happens to me if using Gboard, but it works fine with SwiftKey. Try it.
I've used touchpal on my old phone and with oneplus i wanted to used stock app (now i liked it, it's very difficult to change )
i've tried swiftkey and go keyboard and i've still got some miss type but not as much as gboard and i don't really like it
But this happen since latest update only with 10.5.7 i have no issue at all

I tried SwiftKey yesterday but I don't like it as I cannot switch from Spanish QWERTY keyboard (with Ñ) to Portuguese QWERTY keyboard (with Ç). Gboard can do it...
I think we have to write slower til Oneplus fixes it... :silly:
Yeah, i've open a case since 10.58.0 but we have so much isssue with google stuff
also Chrome freezing issue

But I think is some Google related problem. I was owning a Huawei P30 before OP8 (since more than a year and until 2 weeks ago) and Google Chrome was freezing also there (the trick was going to homescreen and then open Chrome back again, that fixes it temporary until another freeze hahaha). So I don't think that's related with OP8, but not sure.
I've uninstall Webview android so it's stock one and i don't have that much miss typing...
I didn't install the update from play store but for the mom i'm staying like that
I have this problem even when using other keyboards

And what does Android Webview have to do with this keyboard issue?
Another one with the same problem. It seems that this issue is fixed with Swiftkey but I don't like it at all. I've contacted with One Plus support but the only solution that they gave me was sending to RMA.
I've tried with the Android 11 Beta 2 but the issue persists...
oh double post
Really ? They may change our screen for this issue ?
This happen since 10.5.8 update before that I've didn't have any issue.
It's like a driver issue.. but it's seems we are only a few people who are affected by this issue
They can change with 8T for me
My issue is similar to yours. The error appears when I press "ai" or "qi" quickly or with two thumbs - the result is "ia" and "iq" even though I believe I pressed "a" and "q" first. On the edges of the screen, there is a small delay in input. The problem isn't unique to physical edges, as all "a" and "q" buttons can be delayed even if they are not directly pressed on the edge. My conclusion is that this confirms the existence of a software bug. Is this something that can be fixed? I find it quite uncomfortable to type with two thumbs. Would it be possible to change this? It is on a Nordic keyboard, and "q" and "a" is located right at the screen edge. There is no difference in the problem no matter what keyboard I use, including Gboard (despite its small buffer between the screen edge and the leftmost key). For practicing typing, I found a free online typing test tool to see how fast you type. Also, it will help you remember the keys. It's an easy and enjoyable way to check your typing skills.
