does anyone else have the problem of the OSK popping up all the time? I had Opera Mobil installed and when going to the imported PIE favorites it came up every time I scrolled through the list as each time a new favorite was selected the coursor bounced between the URL bar and the shortcut...
It was so annoying I had to stop using Opera as I found no way to stop it. It also does it in PIE but not near as much... it comes up automatically when I hit a text box ...same for SMS and email....
Any way to get this stopped?
nobody else having this problem?
I have now seen the issue on 3 Tilts... it is tied to the first time you use the on screen keyboard ... from that point forward everytime you hit a text box, it comes up. for SMS, email and MMS that is ok but when looking at bookmarks in Opera Mobile it is very annoying since it constantly pops up as one scrolls down through the list.
Anyone have an idea of where the OSK registry keys are?
solution found!
I contacted HTC via AT&T (ya I know I loose cool points for doing such a thing) but hey the support was excellent and they provided a workaround in about 10 minutes. It is not clear what is actually triggering this but the solution works as I verified it in SMS, Word and Opera Mobile.
Solution:
Go into Mobile Word, slide out the keyboard. this shoud make the OSK dissapear. hit the space bar one time and ok out of word. slide in the keyboard and test your applications for the OSK popping up every time you hit a text box....it no longer happens but the problem may return the next time you decide to actually use the OSK so repeat the process when necessary.
I have the same problem - I hate that every time a text box appears on anything, the OSK appears even when the keyboard is slid out. It's infuriating in Opera.
Your trick doesn't seem to work for me. When I run Word, the OSK doesn't seem to appear ever, even when the keyboard is closed.
I wish there were a reghack or something to ONLY show OSK when I hit the icon on the bottom.
I have similar problem in Opera Mobile. I'm using WM 6.1 and the similar problem was found with WM5 and 6 as well, so I think it is something to do with version of Opera Mobile. Mine is 9.0 build 331.
for what it's worth, ive had the same problem with WM 6.0 and 6.1 when using MyMobiler to display my phone on my computer screen (i switch between skyfire and PIE as my browser. never used opera mobile). if im going to be using the phone in 'tilt' mode for any amount of time (ie, like when it is plugged into my computer), i had to install null keyboard and use it as my primary OSK. not the best solution, but it will keep the OSK from popping up all the time.
I updraded to Opera Mobile 9.5 and it is okay now
Just like I feared.

Downloading and installing it now. Is it just me or the MENU and other buttons do not respond to taps or soft keys. It's been 1 minute and I've given up. Going back to Opera Mini. Thanks anyway man
O yeah it extremely lagged up myphone, I can't even go into PROGRAMS to uninstall this thing. Maybe its just me, which i doubt
I un-installed too. I'll give them the benifit of the doubt, it's still a beta beta
It works all right... the first time you try to go somewhere on the internet, the program actually does some stuff to register itself w/ the teashark server. a la opera mini... when it's done setting up, you'll see a blank screen w/ the teashark in the middle of the screen.
THEN you can press the left ( menu ) button again to go to a website. It's kinda weird, but it happens only the first time you run the program.
My 2 problems w/ the program are:
1. No touch screen support at all, so no real mouse support. which makes their "2 levels of zoom" worthless on the kaiser.
2. crappy picture rendering. Even with "high resolution" pictures enabled in preferences, I only get 40k pictures.
Opera Mini is my recommendation right now since this teashark browser is pretty much an attempt to remake Opera Mini.
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.
"press OK to continue loading the contents of this page"
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?
"press ok to continue" SOLVED
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.
In opera browser the screen rotates very rarely or at all , I mean is not very responsive ( the G sensor ) ... but in Pictures instantly when I rotate the phone so is the picture... what do you guys think?
i got the same problem...
any1 got a clue what could be/ how to solve this?
another one reports here,
same problem, works great in Pictures, but in opera it is as slow as hell....
Had similar problem today, which led me to recalibration of Gsensor. After that i ran the Opera browser, and screen rotated much faster than before. Hope it helps...
Edit: noticed that screen rotation response is also better and faster in Photos/Album too...
done that still no joy
At the beginning I wait until the page is loaded and then rotate. It is not so responsive in the middle of the page loading process...i can live with that...
Did you guyzz try the latest Opera version?
everytime i rotate the phone... opera rotates and the phone goes back to home screen... i have to go back into opera via task manager, and its back on portrait again...
I'm having this problem too, and it's bugging the hell out of me. I've calibrated the g-sensor, but it's still not working very well. I have Opera 1938 and SwiftBL V6.0 ROM. I don't use GSEN.
To make rotation work somewhat, I have to "snap" the Diamond from straight portrait to straight landscape. I can't have it slightly tilted away from me, like I would if I had it in my lap or on a table. However, with the Diamonds image browser it works fine, which makes me think that the problem lies within Opera.
I've tried using the tweak setting long-press home button to manually rotate screen, but this kicks me out of Opera and into TF3D. In SMS it works fine, though.
Teeter works great though, and that again makes me think that it's mostly a bad integration/calibration of the g-sensor in Opera that's the problem, eg. not very calibrated tresholds for rotation.
So we have to wait for a proper version of Opera.
the rendering of a webpage is very cpu intensive action, everything has to be recomputed for small display. if you change resolution (ie. rotate diamond) in the middle of the loading the page, it's bit too much for little diamond. just wait till the loading of the page finishes, and then rotating works ok. it can't be much better...
This is happening to me too (Telus version) but it only recently started happening. As soon as I rotate the screen - whether the page is fully loaded or not - it brings me to the Phone screen. I've accidently called people a couple times due to this so it's a bit frustrating.
I'm going to try hard resetting my phone and then slowly install applications and tweaks to see if I can figure out what's causing it.
I have this issue as well...I think Opera ios just trying to do too much....loading a page and rotn at the same time. After a while it seems to work better....I still think they have a long way to go to make this programe bug free and reliable

Same thing happens to me, on the same ROM.
Did you get any result doing this? I have the Telus ROM too and this is very annoying.
I have tried using GSen with the rom before, but uninstalled it. No change.
The only thing I suspect may interfere could be that I mapped a Long Key Press for screen rotation in apps like Inbox. I will try unmapping and post the results here.
I don't know how TouchFlo is integrated to the OS, but I wonder if manually changing the orientation of the screen somehow affects other components that could become "out of sync" with the current orientation... Could it be related to the version of one component? Looks like GSen does not work properly with Telus ROMS.
at least your opera get to go lanscape. When mine try to do landscape, it somehow open up the phone dialer and i get kicked out of Opera. Anyone know what this happens? Keeping it in portrait mode is fine, but the second i rotate it, it halts the program and open up phone dialer for no apparent reason!!

i think it s HKLM>SOFTWARE>MICROSOFT>SHELL
I then set ShowTitleBarClock to 2
hope that helps

It works!.....but then it covers up my battery meter
I'm not sure what would show the battery icon....I use ariel battery metter
...same problem here...
(Telus)
Same as mine.
Rotation speed in Opera seems not real working when the phone rotated for vertical / horizontal orientation. I am wondering memory size whether it can support changes in high resolution display.
See whether it has upgrade version to speed up the function.
I seem to be having an issue now and then when I start typing in landscape mode, the phone switches back out to the landscape home screen. I have to switch back to the app while in landscape mode in order for me to continue.
Is there a way to stop this from happening?
Thanks!
thank God i've found someone who has similar problem like me! hopefully someone can guide us how to solve this problem.. many thanks!
I get the same problem, it does it in all different programs.
yeah, but it's odd because it only happens after some time of usage. Once I restart the phone, it seems to be ok again.
Well I must say that's why I've quit using RomeOS' ROM's, I had the same issue but not on the PROVEN ROM so I'll continue to use that one...
I have this problem, too. I'm using the stock att rom. Instead of rebooting to fix, you can just disable and re-enable tf3d.
It's also worth noting that a guy I work with just got a new fuze, and he has this problem as well. He hasn't installed anything on the phone yet, so that proves it's a problem with tf3d.
How i fixed mine...
This happend to my when I tried to install a different
HTCvolumeControl.dll
Maybe your rom has a bad HTCvolumeControl.dll
Try deleting HTCvolumeControl.dll and the rom will re-create after a restart.
If that doesn't work... maybe the rom has a bad HTCvolumeControl.dll
i have the same problem.. and i havent installed anything on my phone yet!
i have the same problem too,(i am running the stock att rom) mine switches back to portrait them back to landscape and back again a couple of time before stopping, i tried restarting a it works fine for a couple of minutes then it happens again, any help will be much appreciated
it has something to do with the customer taskbar icons, i only fixed it after removing sdkcerts, and the custom icons i had.

Thanks for sharing.. Would you mind to explain more detail?.. where is the "sdkcerts" ?
yeah, share information with us =)
I can't believe more people aren't talking about this problem. I deleted HTCvolumeControl.dll with no luck. I also uninstalled sdkcerts and even my custom icons. The problem still comes back. A second guy I work with got a fuze, and his has this problem straight out of the box. So that's 3 that I personally know of.
To clarify, the programs don't actually close, they just lose focus when the keyboard is opened, and then go into the background as the landscape menu comes to the front. Today, I noticed that opera goes to the background when I rotate my phone... the screen turns to landscape, then the task bar shows up, then it kicks back to tf3d.
Another way to test if the problem is happening is to goto the messaging tab, click to create a new message, then just open the keyboard. Sometimes I start typing, and then the phone comes up accepting the keys I'm typing. Then the landscape menu comes up on top of that.
I also changed my registry to disable landscape mode in tf3d. I thought that solved the problem (I didn't miss having the stupid landscape menu), but it still happened, only when I opened the keyboard, the phone came up. If I didn't hit any keys, it would disappear and whatever program I was in would come back. That was only slightly less annoying than before.
The past 2 days, I've been constantly testing to see if the problem was happening (restarting tf3d makes it stop for a while), and it didn't happen for 2 straight days. It started again today, and I hadn't touched my phone since I had last tested for the problem. In between that time, I received 2 emails. I didn't test before I opened the emails, but one had a link that I clicked on, and then the problem happened in Opera when I rotated the phone. So something happened when I either received the email, opened the email, or clicked the link to goto Opera.
I'm sure if we can pinpoint exactly what is causing this problem to start happening after a restart, we can fix it... or figure out some sort of workaround. So to anyone that has this problem, please post as many details as you can about what apps you were running or anything that could help determine the root cause of the problem. Only then can a fix be developed. I'm already digging all over the registry trying to find something to change that would fix this, but it's hard to fix something when you don't know what's causing the problem.
Is this only a fuze problem or are other TPs are experiencing this??
just to confirm im having the same problem on the normal version of the Touch pro (stock ROM)
a little pointer too: When you want to send an sms do the following. Start new sms, open the keyboard. Then WAIT a second (dont start typing immediately). Then start typing.
For some reason this does not seem to exit my messaging. If i start typing immediately it sometimes closes

i have a very similar problem that's been driving me crazy!!! on my TP everytime i slide out the keyboard when i have an app open in which i choose to type via the keyboard, my dialer pops up!!! The exact same thing happens as soon as i slide it back away. Very frustrating is the "g" rated way of describing this issue. FYI - even had this problem before any installations on a brand new device fresh out of the box.
yes.. i'm having that dialer problem too.. everytime i open my keyboard even in SMS mode or Opera, my dialer will pop-up.. very annoying...
i've also tried disable TF3D and use normal Today screen, the dialer problem and programs exit problem when opening the keyboard are still happen !!! wtf is wrong with the landscape mode??!! i've tried searching anything can be edited in registry but i'm too afraid i'm going to break my TP or cause me to hard reset
to all experties, pls help us...
p/s: i'm using stock ROM, for all custom made ROM users, do these problems happen to u? ...

I have tried searching the forums, but can't find anything about it. When I get a text sometimes and try to reply, the display where the words are showing up that I'm typing is smaller than usual. If I type more than one line, I can't see what I'm typing (and don't know if I'm making mistakes).
I think it usually only happens when I'm replying, though I have noticed it happening during normally opening up the texts. Sorry I'm not as descriptive, I have been using a tilt for about 8 months now (2 separate ones) and haven't really found a rhyme or rhythm to it yet. Is there a fix for this or anybody know what's happening?
Thanks for anything.
I haven't run into this myself at all. Are you speaking of the size of the text input box, or the font size of the text you're typing, or both? What programs do you have installed? Have you tried a soft-reset?
It's happened with every WM6 program I've run, as much as I can remember - ever since the I've had the stringed text messaging. WM6, WM6.1, Dutty's Rom, Laurenitis' rom (did I spell that correctly?).
I've done soft resets as well. I wasn't sure if it was a common thing that I just couldn't find searching. Anybody else run into this?
Sorry, it's the text input box that's the problem and I currently have the official wm6.1 installed. I've got a # of other programs installed:
AE Buttons Plus
Google Maps
MusicID
Opera
Pandora
psShutXP
Skyfire
SlingPlayer mobile
S2u2
I also use gullum diamond keys
If you go to Control Panel, System>Screen, there is an option to set system wide font size. Try increase that.
I have the same problem. It's as if the text input box at the bottom of the threaded SMS 'hides' behind the bar at the bottom where the softkeys are, so you can only see about 40% of the box. Very annoying if you're typing more than one line.
I've tried changing the font size, which doesn't help.
Changing the orientation of the screen doesn't help.
Ending the "SMS/MMS" application and starting it again doesn't help.
A soft reset sometimes helps, but not often.

i've experienced the problem you are describing on some of the recent HyperDragon ROMs by SJ...make no mistake about it, HyperDragon is an EXCELLENT series of ROMs.
for me, ending the sms/mms application and then starting it up again ALWAYS works everytime i've experienced the issue
...and i think it is caused by rapidly closing the hardware keyboard shut (which causes the screen orientation to begin switching back to portrait) right after typing a text reply in a thread and hitting send followed by pressing the hardware OK button (to close the thread and return to the inbox)...threads you open afterwards will then show this "shortened" reply input field. i'm not certain about the above scenario but i think i was doing some or all of those steps in some order just before experiencing the issue whenever i have experienced the issue.
