Hi have upgraded my orange tytn ii over the weekend but i am having a few issues. Used the official wwe htc rom.

When i go to send a message and open the keyboard the menu is blank. Yet if i close the keyboard, the menu is there.
Also when entering the text the suggested word box is either blank or comes up in japenense or chinese. Again when i close the keyboard the words are in english?!!
The on screen keyboard is also different to the 6.0 build. The numbers are no longer present across the top. Is there any way of reverting back to this.

So far i'm not that impressed, i'm thinking of reverting back.

Any help would be great.

U need to disable cleratype in landscape. U can do it in KaiserTweak or Advanced Config Tool.

U can istall another keyboard, just find the one u want and install it.

Is there an official, supported, safe way of going back? For now I am not recommending the upgrade:

I installed it on my TyTN II. Not good. Several problems, most seem related to Pocket Internet Explorer, an intermittent "press OK to continue loading the contents of this page" message pops up when loading some pages and when opening some email messages in the built in messaging client.

Sometimes the device enters a state in which it stops responding every few seconds, with a window of about two seconds of responsiveness. When this happens, control of the device can be regained by using a program like FdcSoft Task Manager (TaskMgr.exe) to kill PIE.

There is some difficulty in switching the phone from automatic WCDMA/GSM to GSM only, the phone setting application seems to hang.

I tried using PIEPlus to disable scripting and KaiserTweak to turn off threaded SMS thinking that it might help, but the "press ok" bug persists.

Googling around this problem seems to have popped up (pun intended) previously, well... years ago. Scary.

If anybody has found solutions to this issue please post. Thank You.

What do u mean by that?

About the screen freezes: did u install the latest spl?

I meant reverting to 6.0.

SPL? No. I just used the official download from HTC to upgrade the stock 6.0 that came with my Kaiser to 6.1

Anyway, I found what seems to be the solution for the annoying "press ok to continue" problem. Using a registry editor, navigate to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main and make sure BlockStaticActiveX is set to zero.

And after hard resetting the device and a full reinstall the lock-up naver came back. Very strange.

So in general I am doing good now with 6.1, except for the same garbled text problem if I slide open the keyboard when Pocket Internet Explorer has the cursor in a text field.
