I read here that there is an issue that currently afflicts Touch Diamond users... It seems that:

Quote:

...if you're using an HTC Touch Diamond with one of the latest version 2.0x ROMs (including Official HTC ROMs) you may have noticed a very annoying bug in the SMS threaded messaging screens. If you open a text message thread from the TouchFLO 3D screen, the reply field will automatically become selected and your default Software Input Panel (SIP) will appear so that you can type. The bug is that as soon as this happens, the input field becomes unselected and the SIP disappears! If you tap the input field again, it will appear and then disappear again. This makes it very difficult to reply to text messages.

Thankfully, user andrediaslopes of XDA-Developers
has posted a fix in the form of a cab file (LOSER's SMS fix.cab) which you can download and install to your Touch Diamond. After a soft reset, your SIP keyboard will always appear when replying to text messages and it will stay there so that you can use it.

I have uploaded the .CAB fix for your use... I did not make this, but am merely uploading it for you to use... This .CAB replaces the htmlnote file in the windows folder.

Thank you! Trying it now.

what exactly does it modify? I'm not asking out of distrust, but out of curiosity as to what on earth is in that file to eradicate the most random bug ever.

probably the TurnAutoDeployOff reg key. depending on what rom you're using, it could be set to off so the keyboard doesn't come up. if it's set to 0 then the keyboard comes up automatically. set to 1, it doesn't.

Not sure about that.. I have auto deploy off .. the file in the cab is a dll file... unless you're saying there is a second (SMS only) setting that dll handles for autodeploy?

Whatever the case it has, so far, stopped the bouncing keyboard while in threaded text screen... which is the only place I had issue with it.
