I don't know is it an issue only I have, or maybe it's a well-know problem that Touch Pro2 users have to deal with but whenever I hit the lowest, middle part of the screen, the Keyboard's Options pop-up, although there's no icon to click. The on-screen keyboard on the other hand never pop's-up by itself, so the issue only regards the Option's box.

I find this highly irritating, 'cause it happens EVERYWHERE: when I try to hit OK in G-Alarm; when I'm not too precise with the Sense slider or - and this is extremely irritating - when I play games designed for Portrait mode (the upper screen was taken while playing "The Simpsons Arcade"). Portrait mode games are just unplayable (hence the controls are often in the lower screen parts).
I don't really use the options box. If I ever use the on-screen keyboard (which isn't often) I have it always set to Phone Keyboard when in Portrait, and to Full Qwerty in Landscape. I never change those options so if it's possible to disable the Option's box all together that'll be just fine.
I'm not sure is it relevant, but I use an official ROM upgrade to Sense 2.1
Oh come on! I'm sure someone can help. Please? This is a truly irritating bug.
dude, i've never had this happen unless the keyboard icon was present in the middle. sure, if i hit a little weird (which technically I think is to the right of the icon (?)) that screen pops up..
I have no idea why its happening, but since no one has replied, I wonder if it is a glitch or bug w/ just what you got..? have you tried any other roms or resetting to factory default?
Not yet - I'd hate to reinstall all my applications, set them all over again and tweak the phone from scratch (I know I can do a backup but if I would decide to install a new ROM I would switch from the official upgrade (Sense 2.1 with WM6.5) to a cooked 2.5 and the backup wouldn't work).
I don't really fell like doing that just to fix one minor problem.
It's like with bugs on Windows PC - people usually let you to format your disc and install the OS again, but I'm always able to fix any issues I have without formating the device (I haven't done that in a year).
But I'm not that good with Windows Mobile, so I'm asking for your help, oh mighty ones
I'm sure it's something that could be fixed within the registry of with Total Commander - I just don't know how to find the bug myself.
Maybe someone could post his/hers setting from the registry (from directions that have something to do with the on-screen keyboard) so I could compare them with my reg keys?

hiya, i'm using Sleuths Developer Rom v3.0, and its all been going fine untill just now ... completely out of the blue!
its easier to explain with pictures. So read my storey thingy:

"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
*Explains*
whenever i receive a message, or tap to view one, it automatically scrolls to the bottom of the message (Panel 4) and so i have to scroll up to see my message each time (Panel 5)
this happened completely randomly and it has happened to me before on one of JJ's roms.
i have searched, and done a Soft Reset, i've uninstalled the last application i installed (HTC Custom) to no avail!
i really do NOT want to hard reset as i have everything PERFECT on here now anyone got any ideas????
i must add that this happened randomly while receiving a message and it does it every single time!
would be greatly appreciated as hard reset is not my option ...
Thanks in advance
EDIT:
Ok Kasual has said that its the "D-pad fix" which can be disabled by downloading HTCustom (search it) and then go to "Pocket IE" tab and disable the Dpad fix, then soft reset and its fixed!
Yeah, I'm actually having the same problem. If anyone's got advice, I would appreciate it as well.
Great illustration
I also have that issue...
A hard reset fixed it for me. I have no idea why it happened, but a hard reset fdixed it. YMMV.
ah i foresee a hard rest then =/ argh didnt want to do that!! must be SOME explanation for it surely!!
thanks for the replies guys
I've had this problem with my 8525 since the day I upgraded to WM6, it has never gone away either.
D-pad navigation.
I am pretty sure this is caused by the "D-pad navigation" tweak. I also seem to remember that one of the newer roms is backwards (enabled is unchecked, disabled is checked). Try changing that tweak setting.
D-Pad Navigation
This is the behavior that comes with the D-Pad navigation tweak. You might want to make sure the tweak program is actually setting the registry to NOT have the tweak. I will look for the reference and post unless some one else beats me.
WOW many thanks Kasual!!! it is the D-Pad fix!
i'll edit my main post with a cure
many thanks
Although I never had this problem, I really appreciated your illustration of the problem (and the solution), which is really great!! Had a lot of fun studying
I wish many other users would be AT LEAST so kind to explain their problems with more than 7 words, such as "my dopod won't start anymore, suggestions??"
Olioaglio
Well I'm also the happy owner of the TP2... But if have some issues/bugs that maybe some of you have a solution for.
When I restart my phone, sometimes manila doesn't start at all.
So I start it up manually, but then it seems that parts are not working. Like quantity notifications of the messages...
Also the device sometimes gives a message that it cannot connect to the gprs, while I have a network connection and other phones have no problem with the same provider. And then I notice that the H sign is very weird and there's no info about it in the manual.
Here you can see an image, the red arrow points to the weird symbol.

You can only modify the total sound volume and not ring or phone volume. That's not handy because my sms sound is too low.
Is there a tweak to change the soft touch buttons? Like Phone - Camera buttons to change to contact - sms or something else...
Greetzzzzz
pfffffffffffff
This is really ennoying... My battery was low and phone shutted down.
So I connection the power supply, started the phone and yeah AGAIN... stupid Manila doesn't start. No feature started.. I feel like throwing it away now.
Hope someone has a solution to it?
One issue solved...
Well I uninstalled SPB gprs monitor and now manila starts up fine.
I also set a delayed startup for S2U2 for about 20s, so that manila starts up first.
these have nothing to do with htc touch pro2 itself dude!
it's about the rom you installed in it,so pls return to your technician to get a good rom!
it's like you have super good pc,but the windows xp you installed is crap,then your pc will always get this problem and that......
FYI: rom means: OS(wm 6.5 for example)+Radio(GSM etc)+Extrom(touchflo 3d etc)
hello everyboby,
For the strange color of the "H" icon, it's mean you don't receive grps correctly in the place you are.Try to move to see a change.
For your problem of the TF3D's starting, i have the same problem when S2U2 was installed, see in the forum you can find a special version modified for TP2.
Hope, it can help you.
PS: excuses my english, i'm french
PS: nokiadashi, please change your font size and color. And try to answer with a different explication that's a problem with ROM like the differents reply that you post
bye to all
Hi folks,
I have searched all over with no answers.
My rom (mightyrom war) has auto screen rotation enabled in multiple apps and all it does is kill performance for me and interfere with s2u2.
There is nothing in my settings or apps to change this.
Does anyone know of a way to KILL auto rotation and only allow it to work with the keyboard opened?
Your input is much appreciated.
get on your registry and go to
HKC\software\htc\htcsensonr\AutoRotation = "1" (change it to "0" )
THANK YOU!!!
Been driving me nuts.
Doesn't work for me
This doesn't work for me - at least not for my purpose. The ROM I'm using doesn't auto-rotate based upon which app is running. I want it to always stay in landscape - unless I manually rotate it (I have the arrow key next to the power button set to rotate 180, via keyboard config).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=349760
This doesn't work. I tried disabling all the oem_misc.dll devices. I2C1 seems to disable rotation to portrait when closing the keyboard, but also crashes it! :-(
Well, if all else fails, you can always physically intervene. I decided to just hot glue a rare-earth magnet onto the edge. It holds the little magnet inside the screen up so that the phone always thinks the keyboard is open. This finally sticks it in landscape.

Magnet is right there, it's very small. I colored it black with a permanent marker so it's really quite tolerable. They sell very small ones at radio shack.

You wouldn't happen to know what it is/if it's any different for CDMA version would ya? I went to both HKEY Classes Root, HKEY Current User and HKEY Local Machine, I didn't see a HKC, also I didn't see an AutoRotation entry closest I saw was GSensor.
I recently bought a bluetooth keyboard to type faster. Initially it wouldn't detect some keys like Shift or Ctrl, so I had no way to capitalize letters. At some point, after installing the Google keyboard (gboard), these keys worked. I could press simultaenously the "Shift + a" and then I got an "A". Yes, pretty basice. The thing is that after a day, it went back to not detecting these keys anymore. That means that I can't choose the special characters above the numbers (like brackets, @, etc).
I tried to root and use a "Bluetooth keyboard fix" app from the market. Unfortunately, nothing works.
I'm lost and I desperately need a solution. I tried to connect the keyboard to my phone (Huawei P9 Lite) and I get the same result: no Shift, no Ctrl.
Anyone knows how to solve it? Thanks!
Sounds to me like the might be a hardware defect? Which ROM are you on? I've had trouble with Bluetooth keyboards sometimes, but usually not something as basic as the shift key. Occasionally stuff may go wrong with the keyboard switching to a wrong mode, but that would normally affect the letter buttons for me, not shift.
Generally on any android version from lollipop upwards I haven't had to use an external keyboard app for anything on my various Bluetooth keyboards.
I'm in stock ROM, the latest that Samsung put at our disposal: 5.1.1.
Sounds like a software glitch but can't make sure!
Given you describe that the same issue occurs on another device, I'm afraid it sounds to me like a problem with the keyboard. Switching off these buttons would seem like a strange software feature -though I can't say for sure, of course.
Thanks, I have written to the seller.
I had nothing to lose, so I've decided to open the keyboard. It had several clips around the plastic "grid". There is a flat cable connector; I reassured it and... bang! I'm posting the picture to help others (though I think I was the only one with this weird problem).

Glad to hear it's working now and that it was a defect you were able to fix yourself!
Enjoy typing
My 6Pro is, just like the title suggests, super sensitive for very certain things. Because of a bit of a hand disability I have gestures turned off and I rely on the Back, Home, and App Overview buttons. But the Back button is crazy. When I tap it, about half the time it will double or triple tap. The App Overview button is super weird too, but I suspect that it is it's own thread in Android 12 forum.
I've gone through to make sure that in the Display settings, the "Increase touch sensitivity" is disabled. I don't know of any other option that could affect this. I'm going to try to reach out to Google for help, god help me. But maybe someone has some ideas or maybe is already aware of if this is a hardware bug?

Yeah, I have the same random issue....
Simple/single/small touches of the back button, become double/multiple registered touches for some reason?
IT IS a very frustrating bug at times
Under accessibility setting touch and hold to medium solved my sensitivity problem (sounds like i was Emo LOL)

I've reverted my setting to short now that I'm on the March update and it seems this is much better. I'll post further if my testing shows that medium is still the optimal setting, but short seems fine right now
Nope scratch that it's just not as bad it still does it back to medium
