how to make BLOCK RECOGNIZER a default text entry method ??? - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Anybody knows how to make block recognizer a default text entry method? Each time i softreset my test MDA II it comes up with keyboard which I hate. I found out how to turn on/of letter recognizer and transcriber from the menu, but I do not know how to make blockrecognizer a default. I think it is not written to registry as it comes back to the keyboard after softreset. Anybody has a solution? I used pocket tweak 420 for that before but this is the only thing I was using it for so it would be good to get rid of it.

Off the top of my head, the best way to do this is to install the trial version of Fitaly, tell it so set your favourite input method as default (soft reset a few times to make sure it works), and then uninstall the Fitaly trial.
It's certainly not elegant, and there must be much better ways, but it works, in a quick 'n dirty way..

Fake SIP

FakeSIP
This SIP is placeholder, so you don't see keyboard toggle if you select it as current input method.
This is useful if you use keys, but keyboard autoshow irritate you.
Install cab and select "Fake SIP" in menu.
When you need to use real keyboard, you can switch it, of course.
thanks m8.
Search xda-developers for "NullKB". Someone beat you to it by a few years.
On another note, I find NullKB to be indispensable in combination with PQzII. So when I slide out the keyboard the device switches to NullKB and prevents the soft kb from popping up. And when I slide back to portrait mode the SIP changes back to the soft KB.
I don't see PQzII talked about much anymore. It's hard to describe all its functionality, but in general it handle all sorts of keybinding and event-based behaviours.

Hey, guys!
I've tried to use NullKb, but got no stability in daily usage. Sometimes i can't select it - whatever i want to select, the build-in keyboard is choosen. I've thought that it NullKb's fault and I've made my own implementation [ didn't saw your Fake SIP, GreateVK, sorry ]
But even with it, sometimes I can't open the SIP which I want to use. Does anybody encountered sucha problems? And what the technical "background" of it?
Another trouble is that I can't set height of SIP to zero - it have the same height as every other SIP in system. I've even excluded SIP_DOCKED flag from IMINFO.fdwFlags, but it was a useless step. What is the right way to setup height of SIP control?
My little SIP stub [source code + binary] is attached

How to Change and keep Keyboard, please!!

Hi, How can i change the keyboard to another and make it stay after reset?
I change it with the little arrow next to keyboard icon at bottom, but when i restart it reverts back to default one.
I am using bepe's no tom rom.
Thanks
Install this SIP changer cab onto your device. Then access program from the programs folder, select your preferred layout as default... job done
Great, thanks needed also
luuurvly!!! Thanks Very Much!!!
Thanks great work
Change default SIP (Sofware Input Panel)
I installed Spb Full Screen Keyboard and wanted to make it the default SIP (Sofware Input Panel). Some of the pre-installed input methods I never use, hence disable them makes sense. Here are some registry modifications I use.
1. Use a tool like SIPchange to change your default input method.
2. Disable an input method
Disable a keyboard/input method (disable=0,enable=1)
E.g. Disable Transcriber:
KEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{F0034DD0-2AD4-11D1-9CB0-E84BE8000000}\IsSIPInputMethod\(Default) = 0
E.g. Letter Recognizer:
KEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{42429690-AE04-11D0-A4F8-00AA00A749B9}\IsSIPInputMethod\(Default) = 0
More $SIP_CLSID$ keys
{198D503A-EFFE-4AFD-BC54-EED333C80E6D} = TOUCH KEYPAD
{62B00599-25D2-4E09-8C48-03BF26DB8517} = TOUCH KEYBOARD
{42429690-AE04-11D0-A4F8-00AA00A749B9} = Letter Recognizer
{42429691-AE04-11D0-A4F8-00AA00A749B9} = Block Recognizer
{F0034DD0-2AD4-11D1-9CB0-E84BE8000000} = Transcriber
{42429667-ae04-11d0-a4f8-00aa00a749b9} = Keyboard
{51A2CB38-154E-4C92-A625-A83871C99EC2} = Phone pad
Little bit off topic, but any idea how to really disable XT9? There has been cab etc. around, but they never really worked for me. Every now and then XT9 is on by default when starting to write SMS for example = very annoying.
Yeah i have a similar problem!
i never use the touch keyboard or keypad. but when i use the normal keyboard with stylus that freaking black word-completion bar pops up. even when im in transcriber-mode and want to use that mini-keymap which has only the symbols and digits on it, that bar pops up and even obstructs the minikeymap. that means, when i want to enter a number like 1982, i press 1, then the bar pops up and i have to confirm the one in order to make that ****ty bar disappear and be able to press the 9! means, i have to do every entry twice!!
i thought, this is because word completion is on (even though i didnt understand why there should be word completion in transcriber or a full keyboard), but even after disabling word completion it remains the same. i found out, the only way is to switch to the touch-keyboard or pad and there switch from xt9 to abc-mode. then switch back to keyboard or transscriber and it works, the black bar doesnt appear on every entry.
this is annoying but would be acceptable if it had to be done once every time i switch on the phone.
BUT: as soon as i exit the word doc (because of an incoming call or just because i left it untouched too long and the screen switches off) and enter again, the same freaking problem araises again!
this really drives me nuts, please help me anyone! i have tried disabling the touch keypad and keyboard, but the keyboard still remains the default sip and the problem is the same still..
if anyone has an idea, please tell me!!!!

The sipchange Cabs do not seem to work for me. I am using the Aserg ROM and the PCM keyboard, but even after installing the sip cab, it tells me that the sip is not defaulted to the PCm keyboard.
Any ideas if this sip change cab works with the Aserg Rom or what I need to set to make this work?

Touchpal freezing

Hi,
I use Touchpal V3.5 and i absolutely love it, if you haven't tired it I highly recommend it, especially good is the mixed language input and I actually type faster using touchpal+gsen in landscape mode than I did with a hardware keyboard (a worry that almost prevented me from buying this marvelous device). I do have two little niggles that would be great if i could overcome somehow:
1. Setting Touchpal to the default keyboard does not stick after a restart/reset. I have to change the keyboard each time i start up. I tried SIP Change but it doesn't seem to have an option for running at start-up....anyone know if i can get at the registry somewhere or something?
2. When I first open it, if i try to type in Chinese before using English, it freezes in a bad way, disabling EVERY window that tries to call the sip and requiring a soft reset to make the phone useable again. If I open it, type something in english, and then switch the input to chinese it runs like a charm until I restart again...what is that about?
Actually neither of these issues is a deal breaker, but it would be nice not to have to worry about it, is anyone else having these troubles?...any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
touchpal
i have touchpal also and cant keep it as default. Ive tried all the fixes there are on all the threads. Doesnt work for Touchpal. any suggestions or fixes would be greatly appreciated.
Well I figured out the answer to problem one on my own...TF3D takes a little time to load and interferes with SipChange so you need to adjust the delay so as to happen after TF3D is finished.
Just tap SIPChange, select the IM you want, and set the time to 45 seconds (shorter may work). Bingo, stays the default IM on restart
whats the difference (apart from it's tabulated) between touchpal and "compact QWERTY" mode keyboard?
you also need to Go make this change: HKCU\Software\HTC\BootLauncher\Apps and remove the folder called "Startkey"
I have the same problem with touchpal, where do i do this?
Just tap SIPChange, select the IM you want, and set the time to 45 seconds (shorter may work). Bingo, stays the default IM on restart
@FRUSTIN:
TOuchpal is third-party software by CooTek, "Compact Querty" is just a different layout for the tock HTC input method. TOuchpal is MUCH more feature rich and just kicks the [email protected] out of the default keyboard in every way, it supports tons of languages and multi-language input (go back and forth between two languages in the same sentence without changing any settings), web hotkeys, adds copy/cut/paste and D-pad to EVERY app, etc. check it out at www.cootek.com
@DIAMONDBS:
I did NOT do that and it works perfectly for me...why do you need to remove an entire folder from the registry? Can anone confirm this?
@WEETABIX1980:
Just go to start>programs>SIP Change, when the program opens you select Touchpal from the list of input methods and then change the numbers in the box below the list to 45, then click "Select"...should be the only button there...tapping "OK" is not good enough, be sure to tap "Select"
thanks, any clue what sip change in dutch is in the programs?
anyone knows this?
SIPChange is a little tool developed here at XDA:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=271008
Download the cab to your phone and install. This should then give you the options mentioned above.
Touchpal intermittantly hangs on me aswell. I post on here about it before. I tried allsorts to cure it (hard resets, clean installs etc). So annoying when demoing the phone to a friend and all of a sudden the keyboard hangs and wont popup.
I used to love Touchpal, now I hate it and will not install it on my phone.

How to enable Letter Recognizer: use CAB in your language

********************************************************************************
EDIT/UPDATE!
My first post only seems to work for WM6.1 Recently I upgraded to WM6.5 and the CABs don't work!
Afer some searching I came across NothingBetterToDo's entry in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=563717&page=3 post#26
read that thread further if you have any problems or for additional information
It seems to do the trick in WM6.5!
Read his instructions carefully!! I couldn't find the "IsOtherSIP" entry in my registry so I added it myself and it seems to work fine.
(I used PHM Registry Editor) http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/phmregistryeditor.shtml
I did install the "enablerecognizerswwe.cab" below first, I don't know if that matters anything..
Downside: the LetterRecognizer won't ever show in the pull-up menu so if you change your input method, the only way to get it back is through a soft-reset, which will put it back to the Letter Recognizer. But hey, since this fix will enable the Letter Recognizer, why ever change your input method?!
I'll post it here, many thanks to NothingBetterToDo!!
NothingBetterToDo said:
So sorry for keeping you guys waiting. The following are the steps I took based on my memory.
To enable the Letter Recognizer SIP, set this to 1:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{42429690-AE04-11D0-A4F8-00AA00A749B9}\IsSipInputMethod
"Default"="1" – Enabled
You will notice that this will not make the SIP appear, for example, in your SMS application. However, it should appear in the pulldown menu at Start->Settings->Personal->Input. Now, if you try to set the Letter Recognizer as default, thinking that it will appear in SMS application, it doesn't. For some reason, it will always default back to the Touch Input (or EzInput) SIP.
So, the next step is to make the Letter Recognizer SIP the default. To do that, check the value at
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip\DefaultIm
It should be "0654897B-B359-473F-B28B-D85CF601C57F" (for Touch Input SIP). Replace that with
"42429690-AE04-11D0-A4F8-00AA00A749B9" (for Letter Recognizer SIP).
WARNING -- very very important to make sure the above is entered correctly. According to some posts elsewhere, a non existent SIP can crash your device. You might want to confirm if you have the Letter Recognizer SIP by searching for the msim.dll file. If it exists, I suppose it is probably safe.
After soft reset (power on/off device), you should now see the Letter Recognizer in your SMS application. However, you will also notice it doesn't work properly. For eg, the Capital Letter (left panel) doesn't work, there is this irritating word suggestions thing that keep popping up, it is quite slow and quite inaccurate, the Help doesn't work well.
To resolve these problems, set the following to 1:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\ezsip\IsOtherSip
Do a soft reset and the problems should disappear and you have a good Letter Recognizer to work with (even with fingernail), save for the following problems:
a. Sometimes response may not be very good. Can be quite slow especially if you are entering letters like "i", "r". Maybe this is because of the screen sensitivity.
b. If you click on the little triangle and want to switch to the Touch Input SIP, you can. But the problem is that you can't switch back to the Letter Recognizer anymore unless you do a soft reset. I guess this is OK if you use Letter Recognizer exclusively, but if you want the Chinese Handwriting feature in Touch Input (which is pretty good IMO), then it is not good.
Sorry for the long post. Thought it is better to also share my observations. I am a newbie with registry thing, so I prefer to do step by step and hence many soft resets. If you are gungho enough, just do the steps in bold followed by a soft reset. Hope it works for all you guys.
Note -- if you don't feel safe doing the registry changes, an alternative is to use the Touch Input SIP but set the waiting time to the shortest possible which will reduce the delay. But it is still very irritating to use IMHO.

old post:
Ahaa!!! I have discovered why my Leter Recognizer wouldn't work on my newly flashed ROM.
On my Dutch HTC TouchHD the Leter Recognizer didn't come on the OEM standard ROM. Then I installed EnablerecognizersNL.CAB which I still had from my previous HTC (Artemis or XDA Compact III) and it worked like a charm.
Then I flashed my ROM to Dutty's 2.0 and later 2.1 and ARGH! the Letter Recognizer wouldnt work anymore!
It seemed to install fine and it also showed up in the 'other input methods' list but when selected, the normal keyboard would come up instead. It was even listed in the pull down menu to adjust the options in the options/Input Method/settings window but on pressitn the 'options' button I would get a message stating something like 'could not retrieve application'.
Then I tried several other enable recognizers .CAB files, but none worked, except the WWE version, and that is the solution to the problem!
You need to enable the EnableRecognizers.CAB file that is for YOUR language setting, so the NL version worked on my Dutch ROM, but not on my WWE ROM.
Here is the WWE version (post #2)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=421157
and here is the Dutch version (post #7)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=289839
and here is another, dunno what language (post #2)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=469250
I hope this helps other people as it took me a few days before finding this out.
If you have a CAB in a specific language, I suggest you post it in this thread, I'll try posting the above mentioned versions here as well.
Thanks..! Work Fine for me
Thanx!
It works! Got my HTC Touch Diamond just a few weeks ago, and was very frustrated that I didn't have a letter recognizer. I've used serveral pda's (no mobile), got pretty used to the letter recognizer in 7 years... Only one problem... the loss of buttons ;-) No software patch to solve that ;-)
Hi !!
I've tried the CAB's that you post but none of them worked in my htc touch dual.
Do you know a CAB for Portuguese language?
Followed Step 1 (enabling letter recognizer in reg) and it worked! Followed Step 2(setting it as default SIP) and it crashed my HTC Topaz! My phone does HAVE the msim.dll file! I was on Dutty R15 rom. I have to re-flash
BEWARE: Having the msim.dll file does NOT mean it wouldn't crash your phone for Step 2!!!
I do thank NothingBetterToDo for writing that post and Lx for quoting it here. I wish there is aother way to set Letter Recognizer as default SIP. For now, it is better than nothing.
Is there any thing like this for android 4
Is there any thing like this for android 4,

Handwriting Recognition.

Is it possible to install Handwriting Recognition & Accelerometer on Touch2 ??
I miss these functionalities on this, which is otherwise a great phone to own.
Handwriting recognition, try MyScript Stylus.
As for accelerometer, thats hardware, not software, so no.

the example describes how to enable the letter recogniser by editing the system registry, personally I favour block recogniser and I set up mine just last nigh using the article as a reference but used the code: {42429691-ae04-11d0-a4f8-00aa00a749b9} for block recogniser.
You will also need a registry editor on the phone or a PC based one. They're discussed in this forum but I cannot find them again, I've attached the one I downloaded from the forum.
I have'nt seen anything on accelerometers yet. I think that requires a hardware feature in the phone and as far as I am aware that's not built into the Touch2(Mega) model.
Accelerometer is indeed hardware. As for reg tweaks, i wouldnt recommend it if you're unsure what you're doing. MyScript Stylus offers hand writing recognition without tinkering with your registry.
Microsoft's Transcriber is another option for handwriting.. It's free and available at microsoft's website. I am using it without any problem.
you can download it from here

Hi, I just couldn't make it work for my HTC Touch2. Im using the WM6.5 original from HTC and the second value "It should be "0654897B-B359-473F-B28B-D85CF601C57F" (for Touch Input SIP)" is diferrent for me. Miine instead is "36BC8FF6-8241-4C36-ABDE-204885.
my device crashed after i followed all the above procedure, and i had to hard reset it to get it back, Ive tried it 3-4 times with the same unfortunate result.
Pls help, letter recogniser is a MUST for me and with the Touch2 im facing so many difficulties in my job... Thnx
@spandeli: Great find! But I dont recommend this method over mystylus, not because it doesn't work but because there are certain people who don't know what they are doing who will try this, go wrong and balls their phones up.
I mean if certain people dont know how to turn touchflo on and off (as i've seen several times, one of which even hard reset their phone cause they didnt think to look in "settings") Reg hacks are not recommended, for newbies, at least.
Installed Transcriber.cab , Chose transcriber as default. Went to text and it was still normal. When i check back at settings it seems to have gone back to Touch Input.. help?
