I tried using the .cab above but my 6800 wouldn't install. It said there was already a custimization_tool installed but couldn't uninstall. I don't know what it is. I didn't install it. I just recently upgraded to the 6.1 rom from alltel.
Anyway, if others out there have the same trouble, I think I found the fix. I've been reading over at XDA and saw that one of the problems was linked to the word completion app. I disabled it and my keyboard seems to be woking just fine now. I don't really use word completion anyway. I'm curious if this works for anyone else?
