Is it your keyboard?

Like blazingwolf said, I would assume it is keyboard settings. Are you using stock KB or a third party?

Moved to Android Apps and Games discussion.

The auto keyboard sucks it doesn't auto correct for you unless you have word vompletion on then you habe t clivk on each word yoy actually wanted to select worf correcton.

Ok, i typed that out without going back and correcting each word. Auto correct doesn't, nor never has worked on my evo without having word suggestion on.

And the first sentance i wrote in aprox 8 seconds. the second took me almost 3 min to go back and correct myself. i miss the hardware keyboard.

It takes a little getting used to but you'll get the hang of it. If it's the HTC keyboard try using the phone pad (it looks like a t9/abc keyboard off a regular phone) and give it a whirl. I also find typing in landscape is nice too. Just practice it and you will get better.

Stock keyboard.....I didn't know there were 3rd party keyboards.
I'm not using the hard keys.......I type in landscape using the touch screen.......or use the voice input.
