This problem that you are experiencing with PhonePad is the same one we were experiencing with the Magician. The problem is that the SIP and the Today plugins share the some same resources. With a lot of Today Plugins (or an insulting one), you will not be able to change your SIP other than to Keyboard.

You can try disabling the Today Plugins one by one, trying to load the Phone Pad in between. That way you can find which is the insulting plug-in. Mine is the Resco Explorer plug-in. You can re-enable the insulting plugin once you load PhonePad and they will then work.#

Sometimes a soft reset and changing the SIP immediately after also solves the problem.

Dont know what the problem was but, its sorted.

without changing anything I just opened programs and tried to run the pad in there now it works well.

now just to try tomtom5 so far no one reported any problems a good thing!

the pad is the like phone pad which comes up so you can enter text.

I have just reset the phone to factory standards and the pad works unit it starts to install stuff then it just stops.

I have removed all the stuff it will let me and still it wont work. I have to get this working...

Has no one else got this problem?
rom: 1.0.9.25wwe

OK this is odd I have removed all programs on the PPC and started nothing and it doesn't work, removed the sim and it does! :) OH! :( I need the sim.

oh and the JAMin runs much faster without the sim?? OK so as I do this I am performing a hard reset without the sim, the phone is clever its telling me there is no sim! "I know this!"

I am sure it is something to with a CAB file that installs when you first boot or after a hard reset. or it may be my sim? after all its working without my sim.

Ok hard reset done, without the sim it is working fine now time to put the sim in.............................................

OK its either the sim or the stupid text that tells me what area I am in. how do i turn the area notification off?

ok a way around it should you ever have this problem.

put the phone into flight mode and soft restart, with it still in flight mode load you sms or what ever and open the key pad, then turn off flight mode and you will see your key pad.

PS it will screw up after a soft reset so you will need to do the above again but a solution for the short term.

Just traded Dopod 700 (Blue Angel) for the sleek and tiny Dopod 818 Pro. Keep hearing about this phonepad SIP, but don't seem to have one on my phone. I have the Traditional Chinese ROM, which is ok, but would love a phonepad... Any ideas what's up with it not being on the device?

Thanks,
Travis

Heya,

used to have this problem too until i read a solution from a thread here.

goto "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\SIP" in registry
under "DefaulfIM"
Change this value to "{51A2CB38-154E-4C92-A625-A83871C99EC2}"

Thereafter everytime you soft reset, phonepad will load up automatically and it will function every time you need it to... hope this helps
