Problem:word selection when using keypad

[sureshotz]

Hi dual-owners,

Anyone has a problem where when typing using the keypad (slideout keypad) you cant use the navigate button (left/right) to select the predictive word options.

U will need to touch the word option instead.

I think there was only one time where I could successfully use the navigation to select the words when typing?

Is this a common problem??

Thanks

Not me. I always navigate right and left with the button... Have you tried a soft-reset?

Yes Sir,


I tried many soft resets - seemed weird at 1st but thought thats the best they (HTC)could do with a slide out keypad.

The navigation button to select word option works when ur not using the keypad (slid back in) but once u start to use it - the navigation button just wont work for me. have to reach up and select a tiny word option (which most of the time i miss) ..

This is my 1st PPC (sold my slow n95) and i love it except for this little annoyance + no wifi :P

So fellow PPC owners- if anyone has a solution i'll be grateful.

cheers

try hard resetting your device, (note not a soft reset.)

as it works fine on my orange branded touch dual.
it could be related to the operator rom that is on it, but i wouldn;t expect so.

Hi there,

I also have the same problem.

I also tried many soft reset but is the same.

I found PQz II Keyboard has an issue with this problem.

After uninstalling it, actually I had a hard reset and then install software one by one, the problem has gone.

Hope this help.

Yup thanks! all!

Did a hard reset and everything is back to normal (all workin fine now)- oh yeah the blank notification thingy is also gone -

Be AWARE: prior to hard reset make sure ur files in the storage arent encrypted and at least back em up somewhere. Cause my files (pics and music etc) became unreadable after the hard reset . (this is due to the encryption key that was auto-set by the phoneware on my "phone-state" prior to hard reset.)


Cheers
