Ok I'm not sure if this is a bug or an option that can be turned off, but either way its f'n annoying. When i double tap a word to select it, it gets selected but then the menu comes up as if I long pressed the word. So I have to hit the back button. It wouldn't be such a hassle if auto correct wasn't wrong (most of the time), but it is.
Also, since the text edge glow came out I've found it easier to double tap a word to bring up the "select text" option instead of long pressing and tapping "Select Text". But having to hit back makes the cursors disappear. So I can't do that now either.
I haven't seen anyone ask about this. And yes I did search for it but either no ones' asked or I didn't word it right. I've been keeping up with Wolf's thread since it started and have not seen anything in there either. Even asked in there but was ignored. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Btw, it did this on Wolf's v3 and still doing it on v3.5 now. As well as my MMS's being stuck on "sending" with both GB versions I've installed, even though I have correct AT&T apn settings input (unless theyre different now and no ones posted the new settings). Thanks again.

So I have a habit of sliding the phone open and then pressing the hardware messaging key, and no matter what, it never seems to work. I press the button, and Ill see the today screen, but no messaging window. I have to slide it back closed and open again and everything sorts itself out.
I've tried looking, but haven't seen anyone complain about this particular problem. Anyone else fret about this? any solutions?
no one has this problem?

I find my X01HT in landscape mode when i wake him um with the "on" button, and have to wait for it to "think" a litle bit to obey me, while that, if I try to push any command he will go crazy and the image will stay locked in the last scene and will not get actualized... Kind of annoying thing, using black Satin... But i'll try schaps now to see if that goes away...

Im on WM5.
Vijay, I don't want to disable orientation permanently. Just sometimes, I want to start messaging, so in stanby mode itself, ill open and start it up. thats what confuses the 8525, thats all. I have to close the phone, and then slide it open again for it to regain consciousness!
Its no biggie, but i was just wondering if any1 else had a similar issue.
FINALLY... WHAT YOU HAVE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR

I've come to notice that no one REALLY knew how to fully disable screen rotation on WM devices.
Some offered 3rd party apps to get the job done, some only knew how to disable automatic rotation, but when the device went into standby and woke up again - the screen rotated back. So that didnt really work.
So if you're as desperate as i was about screen rotation,
this is what you need to do:
1. Get dotfred's free taskmanager HERE, and run it.
2. Go to "Devices" tab, and look for "MIS1:" device (oem_misc.dll)
3. Long-Tap on it, and tap on "Stop"
4. Long-Tap on it again, and now choose "Set Manual"
5. Go to "Notifications" tab, and look for "Notifications\NamedEvents\VCPowerWakeupEvent"
6. Tap on it to make it selected
7. Disable it
(In dotfred's taskmanager, there should be a button for disabling it, but for some reason some devices couldn't see the button icons, although the buttons are still clickable. Under the notifications list there is an empty light-blue line - the buttons are there, eventough you can't see them.
The disable buttons is somewhere i the middle of that light-blue line, just tap the center until a message box popps up and asks if you'd like to disable this notification - Tap on yes.)All those steps are a one time deal - they stick even after an SR.
This has been tested on htc universal and works great.
The screen will keep its orientation even if you flip your screen, take out your built in keyboard, or turn the device off and back on.
The only time your screen will revert back to the original orientation is when you soft reset your device.
Hope this helps

Please I am begging! Someone help me get rid of the Organizer button on my bottom bar. When I have a message or anything that triggers the notification it flashes on and off freezing up my device. This is the ONLY rom that mobitv works on for me and I love the other options.
Any tricks welcome I will try anything. I am going on a trip in a week and I need my phone reliable.
Easy fix.. I think! Go to the "Options" of Quickmenu and in the "View" tab uncheck the "show on all taskbars".

Doesnt work. It seams there is no option for this organizer button.
Uncheck the checkbox "Show on all titlebars", just verified that this removes the notification flashing change on my lower taskbar. It was pretty much worthless as it flashes so fast I could only bring up the calendar when selecting it anyhow.
Worked for me and 3 other phones ive flashed for my collegues.
UPDATED: Now includes example screenshots. One without the "empty space" highlighted/selected (grey then), the other with it selected (it's red then). I labeled it "empty space" in yellow"...
Ok, so I'm running bone stock dcd 3.2.5 - no kitchen used. I upgraded from the stock verizon rom, so these two roms are all I know. The dialer included is different from stock (I believe it's the vogue dialer? correct me if I'm wrong) Well one thing I noticed is there doesn't seem to be a way to get to my contact list like the stock dialer, without quitting the dialer app itself? (Please please correct me if I'm wrong and how to get to it!)
I thought the "Hide Keypad" button, was what I needed. It brings me to a "Calls + contacts" list. However, underwhere it says "Verizon Wireless" but before the first call/contact in the list, is a large blank space (in either screen rotation). It's around 1/4" tall. It's normally the same grey that is behind the "Verizon Wireless" header at the top. But if you cursor up in the list to the top, or click/touch the space, it turns red (I'm running a red theme) - like something's supposed to be there. But it does nothing, even if you hit the select button etc. Just changes from grey to red, depeding on if it's selected.
It seems to me, that this is where the search box should be, or "quick jump to:" letters tab, like the contacts list itself has (which, btw still works fine). The search box + "tabs" in the contacts list, happens to be the same exact height, as this "mystery blank space". Is that is what is supposed to be here?
If the blank space WAS a search box + tabs, it would be really helpful! And woudl be just as fully functioned as the contacts list itself...
I realize this post reads odd, and if I need to post a picture of my phone I will, but I figure anyone running this rom stock, would see what I mean. (off topic but can anyone reccomend a good way to take a screenshot in the phone?) Thanks in advance!!!
The only time I use my contacts list is to text message somebody, in which case I'm not at my dialer anyways. I guess if I had to tell somebody over the phone somebody's number, I'd use it then. Is that why you need it?
I included a screen capture software.

I use the contacts list to make additional calls while still in dialer etc.
Thanks for the cap program though it didn't work well. Found a good one from SPB.
I updated my original post with the screen shots. I labeled the space in yellow in question as "empty space"... Any input?
How do I make this feature go away when in landscape mode and I am using the slider? Help!!!
Ummm, hit the keyboard icon right below the onscreen keyboard?
I want it to permanently stay down unless I tell it to pop up. It shouldn't pop up if the slider is out.
null keyboard. should solve the problem (i had it installed on my treo, and i think it should work fine on the TP)

NullKB
While NullKB is the best on-screen keyboard fix I have seen, it's also the ONLY fix I have seen. I have been using it since I had the Sprint HTC Mogul. After installing on The Touch Pro, it tends to keep the KB at bay inconsistently. I am not sure if it stops working automatically upon soft reset but I wish it would control this issue unless otherwise directed.
download 'Advanced Configuration Tool'
Then in the Input section Disable 'auto deploy SIP'

I have never seen that option in Advanced Config.
I will check today to confirm.
I hate touching my phone while sharing internet, They always get cranky and it turns off for some reason.
Null keyboard works. Yay 4 Jugs rom has it built in.
I think he had a newer version then mine. Mine would just load a white box and stay up, His loads the box for a moment, then never comes back. But the bar will come up when its trying to deploy the keyboard.
This one has pissed me off for ages too. Just another one of those things Microsoft should have fixed several versions ago.
I dont think its nessarly their thing.
The dev's just are not writing something in to the phone to tell it to not put the keyboard up when you dont want it.
I dont think its a windows mobile thing at all.
Just remember, what devs think and what actuall users think are tottaly different.
We like no irritations unless we ask for them. They are thinking "well this would be good if the keyboard poped up here right now"
The other problem though with the OSK is that as soon as you bring it up, by accident, or purpose, it will pop up for everything after that. That is the one that bugs me the most.

Okay, I checked advanced config, and the option is there, i set it to disabled. Haven't tested it yet.
Working out another issue with standby at the moment.
Sarinhighwind,
Please let us know if the advanced config changed, worked. The on screen keyboard on my Sprint TP, pops up when I go into landscape mode, and then when I start to type using the slider key pad it disappears.
I don't want it to pop up at all.
Thanks.

Just checked, I forgot to earlier.
It does NOT work.
Like a lot of Advanced config features do not at the moment.
I used AC 3.3
The latest as I know of. Or maybe its 3.2 Whatever it was a few days ago when the TP came out.
This one has annoyed me as well... Using AC 3.2 it works well for me, the SKB does not deploy but it required a soft reset before it would work...
I use version 3.3 and it works fine for me. No more keyboard pop up here.
As above. YES you must do a soft reset before it works.
i see u guys arent recommending advanced config on the htc touch pro cdma .. is there one currently that is better... to change startup pick.. change soft key buttons....change order of tabs on tf3d
Another version of this question: how do I make the pop-up icon appear on every screen? (It does not appear on the today screen, for example).
you would use Diamond Tweak
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip]"TurnOffAutoDeploy"=dword:00000001
If you make this entry into the reg it turns it off most of the time, in opera doesn't work
I know this is an old topic but I was looking for a solution for my Verizon XV6850 Touch Pro and Diamond Tweak worked for me (on SSK's 2.1.1 rom) but it's the same thing your gonna have to soft reset.
This was most annoying for me because it would pop up when making calender appointments for drop down menus. If you have a drop down why do you need to type in the time???
Anyway it worked like a charm just go down to keyboard (popup) and select disable and you'll be set

Is there a REG Tweak that tells it to always start in 123 mode? My keyboard is stuck in 123 mode and won't switch when I press the abc button on the screen keyboard...
HI all
Yesterday I've installed MiniCM7 Pro latest version. It worked, but I've ran into a problem which I can't find the right setting for.
I've caused this problem myself. When I click on my home-button, a pop-up appeared on my screen asking which action it should take for the home-button. I had 2 choices: SE home screen, and menu-list.
I ticked the checkbox "always take this action" and selected the SE-option. It should've been the menu-list though. Whenever I quit an application with the home-button now, it goes directly to my home screen (which I find very annoying).
Where is the setting located to adjust this?

go to settings>applications>installed applications>all applications and tap on your SE Homescreen and then Clear defaults. this will solve your problem
Thank you so much, that did the trick indeed! Couldn't find it trough all these topics here on XDA.
