Default help? touch pro input (phone keypad and compact qwerty) only symbols!

I apologize if this has been answered elsewhere (I've looked everywhere I can think of), but I seem to have somehow set the default for both input options to symbols only. I'm running a Verion TP with a few of the tweaks and mods I found. There's an option for "turn on one touch symbol entry" but even with that not selected, it seems to be doing exactly that? Anyone know a registry edit that would help? thanks in advance!

one of your tweaks is causing it.

i'm not sure of the tweak as i have not done it... this comes from reading the forums.

i think it has to do with t9 or something. it would be best if you tested your tweaks one at a time so you know what they are doing.

thanks, i've been trying to back them out one at a time (i only had 2 or 3). I didn't notice it until it was too late, after I'd done a couple in a row. that's why i was hoping someone might know what particular registry entry i can adjust.

Edit: I've backed them all out now and soft reset, still nothing. I'm worried only a hard reset is going to help...

Edit 2: Ok, i just went ahead and hard reset. Thanks anyway

I'm relatively certain you disabled xt9 using some program or another. If you enable it, the you should get the functionality back.

This is correct. For some reason this happens after going to the classic word correction and disableing eT9. A temp fix for this is to modify the following registry keys; I say temp, because it might happen again.

Temporarly fixed symbol lock on keyboard:

1. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\Ime]
"CurrentET9Style"=dword:00000000

2. [HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9]
XT9SupportMSSip value="0"

Thanks Jeff!

I had the same issue and your fix worked.

I only had the change the value for [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9\Ime]
"CurrentET9Style"=dword:00000000

Mine was set to 00000001

The value for [HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9] XT9SupportMSSip was already "0"

No problem! I am glad it worked for you.
