Word Completion Fix for 6.1 ROM Update
Jul 31 2008, 8:05 PM EDT I just spent a little time with HTC customer support and they helped me figure out how to fix the Word Completion function on my Sprint HTC Touch with the new 6.1 ROM upgrade. Mine worked fine in 6.0 but ceased to work with the upgrade. It turns out the problem has to do with the installation of the new Full QWERTY keyboard that came with the ROM upgrade. My Word Completion was not working in Block Recognizer, the original Keyboard or the Letter Recognizer UNTIL I did this simple fix.. Here is how to do it: * After confirming that you have the box checked for "Suggest words when entering text" in the Word Completion tab found in Settings>Input. * Open up a new email or text message. * Go to the bottom of the screen and change your letter input method to Full QWERTY (using the down arrow next to the "pencil", "keyboard" , etc. icon). * In the bottom left hand corner of this Full QWERTY keyboard, just to the right of CAPS/shift button, is a button to toggle between T9 and ABC. * Click the button and make sure that T9 appears below ABC. Apparently the opposite appears as a default setting. * Switch back to Block Recognizer, Keyboard or Letter Recognizer and Word Completion should be active for you! Thanks for taking the time to figure this out, CSR David at HTC and supervisor! Many kudos! 26 out of 28 found this valuable. Do you? |

RE: Word Completion Fix for 6.1 ROM Update
Aug 13 2008, 6:17 PM EDT Thanks for the help...I posted a thread about this on the forums yesterday...so this came with great timing. Now, if only I can figure out how to reduce the font size of the word suggestions to the size they used to be (which was smaller), and it would be perfect! 2 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |

RE: Word Completion Fix for 6.1 ROM Update
Aug 13 2008, 6:50 PM EDT I got some "system" solution from another blog: with any regedit for PDA (windows mobile) you can change the value of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9 -> XT9SupportMSSip to 1 (it is normally 0). Then it works (also autocomplete for names from address book when messaging). Well, the font is not so tiny as it used to be (it looks like in T9 mode), but still a progress.

RE: Word Completion Fix for 6.1 ROM Update
Sep 14 2008, 1:39 PM EDT Yet another solution I found at http://bfg100k.blogspot.com/2008/08/diamond-tip-word-completion-annoyance.html namely, it will make standard "keyboard" (not HTC SIP) work with STANDARD windows mobile wordcomplete feature, muche nicr to use (with small fonts, and all extra-s) Change these two registry keys under: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\system\currentcontrolset\control\layouts\e 0010409 - Value of Ime File from \windows\eT9ime.dll to \windows\compime.dll - Value of Layout Text from ET9 IME to COMP IME Of course, make sure that HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9 -> XT9SupportMSSip is 0 (to the contrary of my previous advise above) Cheers ,George 1 out of 1 found this valuable.
