That Tips and tricks thread couldn't get any simpler. Not to mention 'your first timers' are going to need to know that stuff sooner or later. Once people stop posting to this thread it will eventually move to the bottom of the pile, then making it not easily accessible and irrelevant. Maybe you should consider making your own one page wiki in comic sans.

@ kbussen- ha ha! (always bustn my chops)

@ thacountry- i am not against your 23 pg thread... just think it to be a little full of useless convo. but obviously this one is going to become the same way. what typos are u referring to? no i am not looking for thanks, could care less. just want a user friendly site where my people can go to get info and not be overloaded with non-applicable junk. i thought ppcg was the place and it took me a long time to decide. i was on here a long time before making the commitment to become a member and i take it seriously. so please stop being unpleasant. thanks.

@ notrock- thanks for your opinion but you are not helping.

@bradart- so funny i forgot to laugh.

i dont know why everybody is being rude but it is uncalled for. get off the hater-aid!

When I had my Hero, it wasn't the on screen keyboard that caused me problems, it was the overall sluggishness of the phone. It just kept freezing and freezing up on me, especially when I was trying to send and receive texts. I thought and still do think that the Hero had the best on screen keyboard that I ever used on a phone.

Why are you so against my FAQ thread?! It is 23 pages, but there is nothing in those 23 pages that isn't on the first page. I keep it up to date. I don't understand what happened to looking for answers, and it is a healthy read to look over all of that.



I don't know if you are looking for thanks, but I actually found this when I was playing with my phone and shared it with the community... All you have to do is go somewhere that someone is having a problem and link this or this. The link to that is on THE FIRST PAGE of my thread, it is not hard to find. Says, Fix Typos.

hence my last post.

C'mon everyone, let's play nicely.

That is a great FAQ thacountry, let me know if you ever want me to clean up that thread of the off topic posts (like we do for rom threads).

thank you! that is all i am asking. @ thacountry - never took a shot at you specifically. just imo people made a mess of your hard work. tried to be very nice about my suggestion but got rudeness in return. your organized posts specifically are wonderful...like i said.

all the pertinent information is on the very first post in his thread. there is no searching needed. I have other things to say, but instead of posting them, ill just ask folks to watch the video I posted again.

press menu-settings-locale & text- touch input- text input-calibration...it will ask you to type a sentence about a fox or something and there you go.

another way:

pull up the kb and click the gear/setting icon- text input-calibration

Happy texting!

i havent exchanged mine, but i do hate the keyboard, ive tried better keyboard, i did the calibration, and its actually worse. my last 2 phones were tp, and tp2 and i do really miss HW KB, i really wish HTC comes out with an android phone with a hw kb, cause i wont buy a samsung
