rushco, when you say it broke again, what, specifically do you mean?

Also, have you installed or tweaked anything since making this mod?

I am using the word correction method that I described above without issue, and I have done about 20 soft resets in the past 24 hours.

As for Diamond Tweak, I think there may be a pretty serious bug that it's applying tweaks even if you close rather than click OK.

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.

It happed after receiving a call, however I then opened up a contact. Keyboard was fine when I first opened a contact, but once I made a change, then went to the next field and needed the keyboard, it was all numbers. I think I did what Makusoto posted, I changed the value to Zero and is seems to be back to normal now...thank goodness and thanks for your help.

Stop, reapply the new version of the hack I posted or read MakuSoto's post that I linked to. That should fix it again.

Are you certain that it happened after making/receiving a call? I'm not sure when mine reverted, so I'm sure even sure what to look for. I just know I'll be spending the next couple days checking it after everything that happens, lol.

"Layout Text"="eT9 IME"
THIS VALUE MUST STAY THIS WAY, DO NOT
CHANGE IT TO "COMP IME"!

"Ime File="\windows\compime.dll"
This value should change FROM eT9ime.dll to compime.dll

Then, soft reset and perform the following changes in Control Panel:

1. Start > Settings > Input.
2. Select Full QWERTY and click Options.
3. Select English, "Turn on one-touch symbol entry" and click T9 Settings.
4. Check ONLY the first and fourth options, uncheck the second and third.
5. Click OK twice to return to the main Input screen.
6. Click the Word Completion tab.
7. The options here SHOULD now work the way they've always worked on the Mogul and Touch, so set them how you want and open Word or a text message and give it a try.

I'll keep an eye on this thread for a while to make sure there aren't any major problems with this, but just be aware there's a couple limitations with this hack in place:

First, the SYM hard key definitely doesn't work with this hack in use, but you can always use the software keyboard for that as an alternative. (Just click .,123, and use the 1/9 page scroller to get to the ones you want.)

Second, this definitely prevents you from using T9 modes on the software keyboards (basically you can use the Full QWERTY in ABC mode, but you can't use it in T9, and the Compact and Number Pad T9's don't work). Actually, this may or may not be true... it's entirely possible that I only hate the T9 mode because I just don't know how to use it very well.

Regardless, it's a bit of a trade-off and compromise between whether you want it purely old-school QWERTY or whether you want it new-school T9. I only recommend using this if you are like me and hate the T9 input system.
