Dialer Pops up everytime I slide out the keyboard

[bones20]

I have this weird problem on my HTC Mogul 6800 (Sprint). Everytime I slide out my keyboard, the dialer starts up. Any ideas?

Sequence to reproduce the issue:
1. Slide out the keyboard.
2. press any key - the dialer pops up

BTW, I am using Paul's dialer found here:

thanks

"ShowTitleBarClock"=dword:00000002

Wait... isn't that to show the clock on the titlebar? I think the OP is trying to get the Dialer to stop popping up.

Same thing happens to me, except it's always there when I close a program. Seems to be related to phonealarm only, though.

How are you dealing with it currently? actually, the behaviour is random. I dont know the specific sequence to reproduce it. but most of the time it is somehow tied up with the sliding keyboard

EDIT: Actually i am able to reproduce it.
1. Slide out the keyboard.
2. press any key - the dialer pops up

I really only deal with it by closing the phone, or if necessary, performing a soft-reset. It MIGHT have to do with opening and closing the Phone App too many times [perhaps from making/receiving many calls]. I hope that the issue is fixed in the new HTC phones, and maybe even in the next Titan ROM

Oh, now I understand. What is happening on my device when I follow those steps is that the contact finder is looking for a number that has the letters you typed in it. It is like contact searching. The only way to avoid it happening is to not type on the today screen. It's pretty annoying actually

I followed your instructions. soft reset. The issue still persists. DO you think it has anything to do with me installing paul's dialer?

Probably not as I have a stock dialer, but I have the same issue. I think it was meant to be a feature, but its more annoying than useful

Wow thanks. That was driving me crazy! For me the phone pad would pop up every time I exited form a system setting applet. I never realized how much that was slowing my phone down as well. This worked perfect.

Thanks!
