HTC Magic :: Why Keyboard Missing Letters?
Nov 2, 2009
I have an HTC Magic running 1.6, but this has been happening since I've had the phone. Basically, when using the default keyboard (which, incidentally, seems tonnes better since the update - it's made me not care that HTC IME doesn't work) it'll sometimes miss usually two key presses. And the phone physically recognizes then, because they pop up above my finger, but they never appear in the text entry field. It's bizarre - does it happen to anyone else, and does anyone else know how to fix it? (Incidentally, does anyone else regularly hit the key instead of space bar by accident. It annoys the piss out of me.)

I have a Samsung Galaxy S. When I am making a call, the dial pad contains buttons with a number and three to four letters. However, while I am in a call and that I hit the "dialpad" button to show the dial pad, it contains the same buttons but without the letters. This is embarrassing when you need to type a password or a name.So the two questions are:
1. Is there a way to get the letters to show on the dial pad during a call?
2. Is this a Samsung or Android bug?

Has anyone else notice this? I have th HTC_IME keyboard installed and if I type too fast, it skips letters. Never did that on Incredible.

I love Better Keyboard, but have an annoying problem I can't figure out. When I am typing I must hit something periodically that makes the keyboard letters show multiple letters on each key. How the heck do I turn this off? What am I hitting by mistake that turns it on?

Anyone know how to change the keyboard letters color? I want to change them to black for a project I'm working on but I don't know how to edit xml and read the hex. Please let me know ASAP.

Has anyone had any problems with the droid's pull-out keyboard repeating certain letters? At first I thought it was just a user error, but over the last few weeks it's been getting more and more apparent. e.g. While trying to type "inside" it will instead type "inside" or instead of "tomorrow" it will type "tomorrow".

I've had my Droid since June of 2010 and up until a few days ago the keys have started to stick. Pretty much when I press down on them they stick for a split second and spring back up making a click noise each time I click on certain keys (Almost all of them). Not many of the keys are giving me double letters when I type due to this but some are. I called Verizon about it they want to troubleshoot the issue and I have no problem with doing that, I just will do it later at home since I am out now. So what do you guys think..? Should I replace it or keep using it some more see if the sticking stops? I really REALLY hate to replace my Droid seeing as it's new fresh out of the box and I've had no other problems with it.

Have any of you tried the compact keyboard with the Magic - it's better. It's like the Blackberry compact keyboard... I type much faster with it thanks to the bigger keys giving you better accuracy.

Wonder you guys have experience this issue with the keyboard whether is in Portrait or Landscapre, I noticed that the last row "keys" are not sensitive.. you will have to touch the 'key" button a little above the bottom line of the screen to be able to sense it.

I've got a rogers branded magic, I love it, but I would like to try some other keyboard skins, I have installed better keyboard as well as acre different skins. I go to the options for text input and set it to use better keyboard, but when I actually pull up the keyboard is the same old keyboard. Am I doing something wrong or has rogers somehow locked the keyboard??

Lately I've been feeling like I'm typing too fast for my keyboard and I'm missing characters all the time. I'm wondering if the keyboard I'm using is the issue or is it just the way the Evo is. I'm using the keyboard that comes with Warm 2.2. Is there a setting I can change that would allow me to type faster (like, is this a software problem) or is this simply a limitation on the Evo's on screen kb?

maybe it just isn't there, but I am trying to locate the backslash character () on the Eris keyboard. I can easily see the forwardslash character ( / ) but the backslash is what I need to setup my Exchange account on the phone. Does anybody have any ideas?

I have found descriptions of 3 different default keyboards on my HT-03A but can only find the phone one i.e. ABC = 1. Do I need to download an app? Under the applications "Android Keyboard" is listed but I can't seem to activate it and presuming it is what I want, make it the default.

Just got a HTC Magic last week and I can't find how to get the device in French and keyboard French Qwerty. The only French keyboard is Azerty and I don't like it. So now, I can't use auto-correct since I want a Qwerty keyboard and it's only when I set it to be in English that I can have it.

I recently got a HTC Magic.The only thing that bothers me is the "iPhone-ish" skin on the keyboard and dialer.Is there any way I can get the default Android keyboard and dialer? I would rather not root the device, but if I have to, I'll do it.

If you enter recover mode on a HTC Magic, for example (holding down HOME+POWER buttons) you do not have access to the keyboard to continue. After the Recover Mode tirangle icon has appeared, press HOME+POWER again and that will bring up a menu for you to reboot the phone, update, or factory resets. use the trackball to select which option you want.

I've been testing my application on a HTC magic and it's incompatible with the keyboard that ships with the magic.My application allows the on-screen keyboard to be displayed when the user clicks on icon on the screen. When using the emulator the way that I determine that the keyboard has been hidden is through responding to the KEYCODE_BACK keyevent. On the HTC keyboard there is an additional key that allows the keyboard to be hidden. When this key is pressed the keyboard is hidden but no KeyEvent is sent to the application with the result that the application is now out of sync with the keyboard state.In general is there a way to detect software keyboard hide / show events in a non-vendor specific manner? This would be highly useful for any application that is implementing custom views.

Anyway while trying out ROMS today I tried the default android keyboard and I have to say. I LOVE IT. It completely owns the hero keyboard that came with my rogers htc magic. Anyway I basically want to know how to install the original android keyboard on other ROMS.

I just purchased an Apple magic keyboard and have paired it with my Galaxy Note 2 device. way to get some of the function keys (such as the volume up and down or the play/pause buttons) to work with my Android device. Also, is there anyway to make the escape key or another button go to the home screen or even open a specific app?

Check me if I'm wrong here, but wasn't the 2.1 update for the Droid supposed to include multi-touch on the keyboard? Mine definitely doesn't appear to have this functionality (as observed while holding down one key and pressing another one). Does this mean I have to go back to Better Keyboard and some other such app? Am I missing something here?

I may be blind, but I can't find a way to type a "?" or a "|" I may be able to forgive the latter but what the heck on the "?" I figures at least it would be in the ALT-SYM menu, but it's not there either.

I just installed ChompSMS and I have already been using Better Keyboard. I type in vertical mode using t9 and the smiley face has always been there in the bottom right corner (while using default messaging application)
Now I installed ChompSMS and can't get the smiley face back, right now it is an Enter arrow. I have a Droid if that matters.

Probably as many others i decided to move on from i phone platform to android and bought a new Desire 2 days ago and trying to catch up with it. I am generally very impressed with the device except 1 critical issue I'm having: When typing very fast in the keyboard, the keyboard gets lost completely, i am very fast typing person and do a lot of emails I'm text etc. I can see when typing that random letters kick in the text. I did a test by fast typing letters A-L to see exactly and a random latter like G, F being inserted without my interaction while I'm pressing only A and L. This is mostly happening in vertical mode. Landscape is much better Can someone tell me what is going on please? I did calibration many times and no result. I downloaded keyboards from the Market - nothing. I goggled the web for something - nothing there. Has some came across this issue? it is so frustrating and if i don't find solution how to fix it i will have to return it to a shop.
