Nope, doesn't cover my problem. I didn't cook in a Diamond keyboard, and although I did inadvertently install one after flashing, I hard-reset my phone after assuming that's what caused the problem and I still have no predictive text entry in the To: fields. I also checked that registry string in the referenced thread and it's set correctly, so it's not something cooked wrong.

Well, I'm glad to have that confirmed. I like knowing it's not a problem with 20748 or no2chem's ROMs, as well as not something I did. Still, I hope the problem gets found soon. I posted about it on the ppckitchens forum.

EDIT: Okay, obviously it's the kitchen because I just tested the on-screen keyboard (since you reported it still works, and I hadn't tried it before), and it's completely different than the previous autocomplete method. Autocomplete in To: fields used to appear just below the actual field you were typing in. This one appears just above the keyboard. Completely different. Obviously they switched to a new, "better" system, that doesn't work with the hardware keyboard. Not an improvement.

Hmm I am getting it too Turbo. I have no idea why. Odd.

Language files are a issue it is being worked on.

How long Nex? Got an ETA?

Colonel is working on it and testing things out to see if he can determine what keeps borking it. I would say hopefully by next update. However if your talking about name input the way it has worked for along time is type out the whole name and hit space then it will give u the name choice...

It's never worked that way for me. Consistently within typing the first one or two letters it starts suggesting names. It's not until building a 20748 ROM that it's worked in any other way. The other way seems drastically less convenient, as it's often a person whose entire name I don't remember (acquaintances are frequently known on first-name-only basis, or I don't necessarily remember the spelling of one of their names), so narrowing it down as I go is a major timesaver. Losing that would be a big letdown.
