Old-School Word Correction... Fixes

Here is the full tweak in CAB format so that you can re-install it easily.

This will make sure that both the Layout Text and IME File values are set properly, so even if it magically breaks on you in the future, re-installing this should resolve it.

Soft-reset required afterward, then setup your "Input" options as you prefer them.

Updated 11/12/2008: MakuSoto has documented an addition condition that is sometimes set (though I'm not sure why or how it gets toggled after the fact). I have updated the cab file to include his fix just in case.

Updated 11/18/2008: One more registry setting added based on feedback on XDA. I'm still not convinced, but we'll see if it does the trick on a permanent basis.

I'm running Vodafone Touch Pro with standard ROM 1.90.161.

Previously, the on-screen keyboard only typed out numbers when searching Contacts, but the auto-match still found entries related to the alpha keys that were pressed.
Applied the .cab.
Now, it types numbers, and also just looks for number related entries in the list.
This really is becoming an annoying lil problem.

Hello. I had the same problems with the ABC with my HTC Touch HD.
First i read all the postings here, looking for a quick working answer, but noticed that the results were not all that good. So i tried to remember what i've done, what could have been causing these conflicts.

After all i found the absolutely working solution for me and hopefully for you also. I opened HD Tweaks and scrolled down to the Keyboard (GIP) section. I remembered that i had changed some settings there, so i gave it a try:

20.1 Automatic display (popup) > ENABLED
20.2 T9 Mode > DISABLED
20.3 Suggest Words > 0

I know this sounds silly, but for me it works although. I hope some people here i have helped with this issue.

When you do this it shouldn't suggest any words, that defeats the purpose of this thread.
