Flashed to the Niki ROM and now cant use the actual keypad to type letters, only numbers come up. I also cannot get the keypad up on the screen, only the keyboard. Massive headache for me!! Have done all options in the handset but I think I need to do something else and am unsure what, any ideas Oh great ones?

I had the same problem. The original 16-key HTC ROM worked well with the hardware keyboard. I flashed to what I thought was a slightly updated ROM for the same device from HTC e-club, and then the keypad would only type numbers.

I unlocked and installed another ROM from this forum (using RUU_Nike_HTCASIA_WWE_1.31.707.09_Radio_Nike_1.58.1 6.27_signed_Ship now with good results) to fix it.

Even enabling T9 in the ROM menu doesn't do it. I like the Niki ROM a lot but if I cant get either the physical keys typing letters or the onscreen 'phone keypad up to type with that then I'll reflash to the tmob rom.

having the same prob with Niki ROM.
only numbers showing when typing with hardware keyboard. :(
tried to enable/disable xT9 in ROM settings and soft-reset afterwards but doesn't help at all...
