I am having an issue with the small keyboard that pops up when you go to enter txt, numbers etc.
It is only showing the top half of it.. see attached screen shot.
I have looked into all the hacks i can find and still no luck on fixing.. any ideas?
Try a hard reset it fixes a lot of things.

Hi dual-owners,
Anyone has a problem where when typing using the keypad (slideout keypad) you cant use the navigate button (left/right) to select the predictive word options.
U will need to touch the word option instead.
I think there was only one time where I could successfully use the navigation to select the words when typing?
Is this a common problem??
Thanks

Not me. I always navigate right and left with the button... Have you tried a soft-reset?
still a problem
Yes Sir,
I tried many soft resets - seemed weird at 1st but thought thats the best they (HTC)could do with a slide out keypad.
The navigation button to select word option works when ur not using the keypad (slid back in) but once u start to use it - the navigation button just wont work for me. have to reach up and select a tiny word option (which most of the time i miss) ..
This is my 1st PPC (sold my slow n95) and i love it except for this little annoyance + no wifi
So fellow PPC owners- if anyone has a solution i'll be grateful.
cheers
try hard resetting your device, (note not a soft reset.)
as it works fine on my orange branded touch dual.
it could be related to the operator rom that is on it, but i wouldn;t expect so.
Hi there,
I also have the same problem.
I also tried many soft reset but is the same.
I found PQz II Keyboard has an issue with this problem.
After uninstalling it, actually I had a hard reset and then install software one by one, the problem has gone.
Hope this help.
Yup thanks! all!
Did a hard reset and everything is back to normal (all workin fine now)- oh yeah the blank notification thingy is also gone -
Be AWARE: prior to hard reset make sure ur files in the storage arent encrypted and at least back em up somewhere. Cause my files (pics and music etc) became unreadable after the hard reset . (this is due to the encryption key that was auto-set by the phoneware on my "phone-state" prior to hard reset.)
Cheers
Hello flyer users,
This afternoon I managed to get my flyer stuck on the "Red Triangle" with "Exclamation Mark" as I was playing with "adb".
Now to get out of the dreaded screen, you do not need to remove the battery as we do with other devices - especially because, as I have been told, you CANNOT remove it.
What you need to do to leave the red triangle screen is the following:
1. Press Volume up (the "+" sign on the side) and the Power Button.
2. Select "Reboot system now"
That is it, that is you done, and your flyer reboots as normal.
Here's another tip...
I keep activating the keyboard in the notes app or hitting one of the capacitive buttons because my hand always goes down before the stylus.
I found that by putting the thumb of my offhand somewhere on the screen in a non activating area, it stops my hand from triggering the capacitive buttons and the screen. Much easier to start writing. and I don't have to worry about stuff activating if I lift the pen too high either.
-Mike
Good tip. I have the same problem with the capacitive buttons in Notes.
Random launcher reboots?
Several times today, my Flyer would go to a white screen that shows the HTC logo and restart what I belive is called the launcher. All my widgets would read "loading" and reload.
Anyone else seeing this?

Yeah I got this a few times. Usually it is due to low memory and the android OS clearing the launcher from memory... but this thing has 1GB of ram...
I read that perhaps not having the Task Manager auto-load on startup might help, as Android versions like Gingerbread don't really need a Task Manager.
I might try running without it.

But upon start up theres only about 150 megs free.
Useless tip,
If you do a long and fast swipe across the home screen, it spins through more than 1 screen. I never noticed this before today
Here is another saver.
The FriendStream widget for some unknown reason would not show all the usual text in twitter and facebook posts.
I tried to recover or repopulate it by rebooting the device, tried re-sync, nothing was doing.
SOLUTION was deleting the widget, and then putting it back on its homescreen, and everything was back.
I had feared I lost my twitter and facebook messages.
Had to laugh at this one! Thanks Useless tip,

Hi, I was wondering if anyone else has this problem.
In the Facebook app for Android and on the mobile website, my liked pages aren't show correctly. I think it only shows likes from a huge while back, as any pages I've recently liked just don't show up. The weird part is that my newesty liked pages shows up on the button for likes on my profile, but once you click it, it's nowhere to be found. Another werid thing is that after pressing that, it says that I have "Other Likes: 11", but once I click that, it only shows 9.
Here is what I want you to try:
Go to the facebook app, slide out the menu and click your own name to go to your profile.
Slide to the side in the area where you have About, Photos, Friends and Places and slide until you see the Likes button.
Check the pictures on that button and see if you can find them in after clicking the button
See if the number of Other Likes match with the amount it shows.
I'm wondering if its just a bug for everyone or if I'm the only one having the problem. Maybe there is even another way to get to your liked pages??
No one facing this problem?
●●●●● I managed to get the settings icon back! I rearranged my icons a few times and put it next to one of my double clock icons and there it was! I did a factory reset. So far so good...... not sure what causes the problems below but I will leave this post unless a moderator wants to delete this thread for me ●●●●●
Hi all. Got a few problems with my Gear Fit... I want to do a factory reset but cannot! Honestly want to upgrade to a different smartwatch soon but for now I will have to work with this. I am disappointed in lack of apps that work with this but I LOVE the touch screen and features it does have...
1. No settings icon to factory reset my device. Thought there was a physical reset button on underside which I pressed in with a pin but nothing happens when I do. I held it down too... maybe not long enough? Does anyone know how long?
2. When I scroll in one direction its an infinite loop. Does not even show home screen with clock on it most of the time... instead there is an infinite loop as in the same 3 icons show over and over and over as I scroll....
3. Sometimes when scrolling, part of the clock shows on left half of the screen and its stuck there while the other half scrolls. Still no settings icon!
4. Also when I use the Gear Fit Manager on my S3, it shows 2 clock icons which I can drag and reorder but it only leaves a gap in the icons on the Gear Fit itself... looking at it horizontally should show 3 icons across but it will show 2 with a blank spot where 3rd icon would be.... sometimes I can see the clock but most times I cannot.
I wanted to contact samsung about these issues through email but I cannot seem to get there. I dont see any choice for smartwatches and model number so therefore I cant seem to figure how to send an email to the correct department.
Hope I can reset and start over before I end up getting mad and throwing it across the room!
I received the s9+ (at&t) the other day. It worked fine for an hour or two, then the buttons(home, recent, back) disappeared. I still have the navigation bar at the bottom.
I have tried changing all the settings in the navigation bar settings, but the buttons will still not show up. I can even change the colors of the bar, but no buttons.
I can use the home button even though it does not appear. In order to use recent or back, I must quickly press the home button and slide my finger left or right to push either button. This does not work reliably and usually just takes me home.
It is almost as if this is supposed to be an option, but I've found no way to turn it off. Why else would I be able to press and slide to use the buttons?
Contacted Samsung support and after an hour of troubleshooting, they suggested I take it 100 miles to a repair center. I feel this is a software issue that should be patched immediately and shouldn't have to drive my phone or wait to get a replacement phone that may have the same issue.
Any advice would be great!
New to the forums so I can't post an image
I assume you've rebooted the phone, but if not start with that. If that doesn't do it, you might try booting into recovery and clearing cache.
Samsung had me try both. Didn't fix it unfortunately.
I am having this exact same issue. I have attached some screenshots. I changed launchers but it's like that on all apps. It's real bad on some apps such as gmail and the play store because the navigation bar is black and takes up a lot larger space. I've tried everything in the navigation settings. I then went to settings-general management- reset- and reset settings. That didn't help. I was going to factory reset but I didn't want to fully set it up again unless I had to. What other options have you tried? I have the unlocked s9+ on verizon.

At this point we are at the mercy of someone to patch. I have read on other forums that it may be related to corporate software loaded on your phone for work. They have uninstalled and it worked.
I have software for work as well but haven't tried uninstalling to test their theory but, I hope someone gets it figured out.
The issue was Airwatch. https://forums.androidcentral.com/a...-my-new-s9-my-navigation-bar-disappeared.html
Airwatch it is then. Let me know if you get a fix, I'm going to be calling my support department as well as soon as I can.
