Problems with pop-up-keyboard

Is it a way you can get rid of the function that the keyboard pop up with every time it seems like I might want to write something. Really irritating when you are browsing a webpage, seaching for an email, SMS, Contact i.e.
I would like that it was only the icon who showed up, and then you had to select keyboard before you could start writing.
Anyone know what I can do?
my best,
erik
bothered by this problem too... hope someone know the answer

Please help....

Ok, im really frustrated by certain things on the diamond, so much so im thinking of selling the diamond....
I love most of the features but a few things really annoy me...such as:
Why when a call connects, does the screen switch off?? This is really annoying when your listening to voicemail, for obvious reasons...
Secondly, i CANNOT switch my input type from FULL QWERTY, i change it, and then when i go back into INPUT, its FULL QWERTY again...why?
Thirdly, when entering a text, i dont want to view a full convo, and the last word of the text remains in the predict part, meaning when you click close, it asks if you want to save to drafts?
If im being stupid, then someone please explain....if not, can anyone assist? Please?
all of your problems have simple quick fixes and have been asked a million times by other people! i dont mean to be rude but please search the forum!
most of you problems can be solved with this one page thats always at the top of the diamond page!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398265&highlight=diamond+screen+turning
and look here for your input problem
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=412757
took me 2 seconds to find the thread
SEARCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and to asnwer your question, the light sensor turns the display off when you put the phone to your head, its a kind of safty feature so that you dont press any on screen buttons with your face.
i like the feature, but like many others like you dont, its on the first forum link ive just given you as is the fix to disable the sms chat interface
I did try search but came up blank....The above isnt really a solution, more of a workaround, i want the phone to function as it should, i.e be able to change the input type via settings....
Thanks a lot for your other assistance though Keyz...
you change your input option from the touch flo 3d interface, NOT the settings page on WM.
go into a new text message, and press the little keyboard icon on the bottom of the screen
im not using the TF3D interface though....using WM.....
you have TF3D turnd off?
Yes, but i have switched it back on to see if i change my mind about it...
I still cant get the screen light sensor thing to work....weird...

Some questions regarding minor but annoying things

I have some minor problems with my Kaiser and after searching the forum I'm really tired now, so please if you are willing to help, than do it. If not, than just don't post here and move along, thanks.
Yes, I used Google to search the forum and I have several registry tweakers.
1. How to remove the operator logo from the dialler screen? I mean not change it, remove and thus free the space it occupies.
2. How to replace the dialler keypad with a smaller keypad or a keyboard? Or at least make the keypad hidden.
3. I like the SMS delivery notification, but my old SE K750 is has so that the messages are just noted as delivered, no delivery SMS arrives, this is much more convenient.
4. How to make SMS the default messaging method rather than MMS?
5. This one really annoys me - How to ger rid of constant Connectivity warnings in the upper tab? They are sometimes noted as "E" icons, sometimes "G".
6. How to remove the connection sound, I mean when the Kaiser connects with ActiveSync?
Thanks for your help, moving from Palm is a real shock.
p.s.: If you feel very generous, please recommend your favourite skinning/HTC Home adjusting application. I already have HTC Home Customizer, but I find it not powerful enough. And as a task swithich I use Magic Button, is there anything better?

[Q] New-SMS/Email widget

Does anyone know of a good easily customisable widget that will show lost calls, recived emails/SMS`?
I have looked, but it takes time to try them all just to find out it was'nt what i wanted...
I need something that is easily skinable/or at least easy to change color/font etc
Do not need big icons, PLAIN text will suffice..
Have looked at executive assistant but it gets to... complicated..
Need it simple.. have also seen that some people use tasker to create such events/variables etc, but just seems to much of an hazzle, at least considering i flash my phone TO often
Anyone with got any tips... paid apps not a problem
eks:
Phone SMS Mail
1 3 6
See?.. just simple and plain
(Hmm.. seems the number did not correcly allign themselfs... you get the point )
I have also checked out the SMS unread count, but the icons are just to dull...
Anyone who can point me in the right direction regarding where i can find the icon.png's?

[Q] Turn off automatic text suggestions from phonebook

Hi guys, got an annoying 'problem' when I text. Basically for example if I am texting words (I have predictive texts on & use the traditional keypad layout, because I am old school like that), words like 'less' will automatically choose a name from my phonebook like Jess - is there a way to stop it from picking out my phonebook names as word suggestions? It's so irritating!
Plus, I also have another weird problem where some of the letters do not show up when I am typing so I can't even just press a single letter unless predictive text is off? This issue happens on & off randomly & I don't know why..
Example: I want to text this smiley =P
But when I have typed in = and want to type in P next, that letter doesn't show, instead it only shows R Q 7.. Therefore I will have to type in a word like Pet & then erase the 'et' from it!
What's going on? Does it make sense to anybody?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Then u will have what u want.
quick fix (un-check)
word suggestion ( 3rd: i never want to have...)
Thanks for the suggestion, however it still doesn't solve both issues
Never had any issues on my Neo so don't know if it's a bug or not on the Z regarding the last issue?

i don have this problem with keyboard !! can you send screen-shot?
View attachment 1812024
The P doesn't show up, & this happens with some other letters as well. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. I haven't done anything differently to my text settings or anything either? But even then those settings doesn't seem to affect this problem
Anybody else know? Sorry to bump it, No one will see this on page 2
Works fine in all the layouts. Try factory reset.
Sent from my C6602 using xda app-developers app
Try also with an alternative keyboard, like Smart keyboard pro
