Why dont you use phone pad or intellipad for that matter...its much easier like an ordinary phone...without having to use stylus..

pm me so I can send it to you.
thanks lots.
All,
Can anyone provide me the tweak or registry key to allow for me to continue typing on the thumb board while on a phone call? (Presently while talking, the system defaults to the number pad while talking)
Any help would be appreciated. I have seen a couple threads about changing the default keyboard config, but not for this one directly.
Thanks,
Bob

what rom r u using
Using AP4, had the same issue with AP 3.0 as well. I assume that they would be different registry keys, but any help would be appreciated...

Interesting, so when you are in a call and you type an SMS or email at the same time, the "Y U I H J K B M N ." keys don't type numbers in their place? I would love to have the letters instead of only numbers. The numbers are a help in 2% of the cases, but for the most part, I want to type notes about phone calls and without having the thumb board working, I am stuck with the touchscreen and it is much slower for me.
Either way, I appreaciate your help

i just tested to confirm and yes that is correct. i was on a call and i hit notes and started typing and it types letters not numbers. i am looking at the reg files now
i used windiff to see if i could find a difference but there were sooooo many i could not find it sorry.
Thank you
Does anyone else have any ideas on how to set the keyboard mode while talking on the phone?
Thanks,
Bob

I'm using original spanish ROM WM6 and I have the same problem.
Me too
Let's bump this thread up the date sort:
AP 3.0, still. I can't get letters with the kbd at all when in a call, so I end up using an on-screen, or translating whatever I typed after the call. It sucks. I thought the active prg would dictate what happens with the keys. ???
I must admit the convenience of the automatic switch when in the phone app is nice.
I'm not getting why some units do this and some don't, or if it might be that people aren't using thier keyboards during a call in a different app.
Reg key? Any better ideas?

On screen keyboard or hardware keyboard? On screen works fine, hardware not since WM6.
its important to me, i would love to type using thumb keyboard while talking, i can confirm that vanilla version of 6.1 does that too but its a beta rom and i like AP4, maybe the athena project people can inlight us about this matter and creat a patch for us to use
for importancy am trying to keep this up, guys its doable, someone is required to just lead us, at least someone post me a clean (hard reseted) registery from a rom that works during call normally, and i will install it on my mobile (which doesn't type letters during call) if it works then at leaset we know its defenatly registry and there for i dedicate my life for it. any clean registry anyone can supply
PS am willing to Hard reset but not willing to reflash another rom am very tried from that business

If this drives you that nuts, then maybe you wouldn't mind doing a bit of investigation and sharing that with us?
Take a look at this registry key: HKLM\Software\HTC\SmartDialing\KeyboardMapping
There are some subkeys there, ToNum and ToSD. I'm guessing that those are responsible for the letter remapping. Would you mind taking a look and letting us know? Thanks!
Dialer/Dialer skine deppendent
It also could be that it is deppendent on dialer used in your system. Some dialers can switch keybaord to numbers and some can not. It would be nice if those who can write letters during a call could tell us which dialer is in their system.
Possible Path?
HKLM\Security\Phone\PhoneKeyMatch
Looks like this could be the ticket, will try to mess around with it and see if it makes any difference

check out this thread, shows that it is really difficult to get the phone to accept changes, but that others are happy with the edits:

Let me know if anyone can apply the fix and solve this problem...

it didn't work for me
Hi again.
Does anybody have an idea about a screensaver for the Rose? Something, where I could see the time and the missed sms, emails and calls? Something, like always the Nokia phones have.
Thanks for the answers!
On my old WM5 Smartphone I used and really liked maniac's Automatic Keylock but on the S740 I couldn't get it to update the email count. Also the device lock didn't behave as I'm used to.
Give it a try, maybe it fits your needs or you can figure out how to fix the issues that I experience...

Thanks for the tip, but I was not able to configure the programm that it will run on my Rose I dont think its for WM 6.1 devices and thats the problem. Hope, somebody will make program like this in the near future. I am ready to pay for it, dont need freeware I need it very much.
Regards Robert

I am sorry, I was wrong. The Automatic Keylock screensaver runs very well on the Rose, it is only a matter of the right configuration of the programm. It is simple and work great incl email, sms etc. notification.
If somebody would like to use it on the Rose and would have problems with the setting, dont hesitate to contact me.
Do you use device lock or key lock?

Why don't you send an email to the support of Percet Keyboard? What you are asking for is hacking an app to add additional features, which might be illegal, as Perfect Keyboard is an app you have to pay for.

As stated in the title I can't add anything to my personal dictionary in Gboards.
Am I the only one with that problem?
Anyone got a fix? If not how can I report it?
Simon
I have the same issue. Still didn't find any solution.
Why dont you guys simply use SwiftKey? Its so much better. (IMHO)

Nope you're not the only one. I've had it ever since I got the phone around the release date. It's a pity though. However there are apps like user dictionary manager that can somehow help wth the problem but it's not the same still as you have to add your words manually and not double tapping on them while texting to add them into user dictionary - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.usr.dict.mgr
Nope SwiftKey is far from gboard so not an option.
Thanks, dictionary manager works like a charm!

No worries. Like a charm maybe but not as intuitive as when you could only double check tap the word while typing on gboard ?. Maybe someone will fix it one day.
