Strange problem: I've search google and here at xda, but find nothing even close.
Discovered the answer in the event others experience this strange situation: Download "sipchange" (google). It nailed this perfectly.
The keyboard defaulted to compact mode about a week after I received the phone. I hard reset (ROM version 1.14.405.3) and did not install any applications, anticipating perhaps a program conflict was my problem. After two days is did the same thing.
The only thing I've tried is changing input methos in the settings node. After I choose full QWERTY (or any other keyboard selection) and select OK, the settings default on compact.
Anyone know the registry setting to force the keyboard to full QWERTY? Maybe this is a known issue....
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT: Still no joy - I installed Touchpal 3.5, however the in input selection for Touchpal 3.5 will not take either.
Edit: Cleared ROM - flashed firmware. This defaults to full QWERTY. I then installed Touchpal 3.5, but my HD would not change to the touchpal keyboard after selecting options and rebooting.
Might this may be a hardware/keyboard mapping problem?
Yes, I have issues with this too.
I use two particular input methods: Block recognizer (I'm an ex-Palm user) and SBP Keyboard. I have to select which to use, using the input selection pop-up menu, which appears next to the keyboard icon under the keyboard.
Problem is I want to customise that menu as the default options (Touch input settings, Phone Keypad, Compact QWERTY, full QWERTY and other input methods>) only leave room for one other option.
Any ideas ?
Many thanks.
when ever i aet a custom keyboard as my default it changes after i restart my phone :s

From Finger Keyboard 2 thread:

SIP CHANGE:
Installing this will allow you to keep FingerKeyboard as default keyboard after you soft-reset the device. Normally, it would switch back to default WinMo keyboard after every soft-reset, and it would have to be reselected under input options. Keep in mind that for this to work with Touch HD, you must increase the timeout delay to at least 50 seconds!

Click to collapse
I have this problem too, and even after Finger Keyboard 2, it still changes back after soft reset.
I don't know if we'd need to change that timeout setting. It's not clear how to do that.
The old version of Shap's Advanced Config xxxxxxxx [edit]
EDIT: I got confused. See the post below about using SKTools to do it. That's what I used
10 second delay has worked for me with both the Blackstone keypad and Finger Keyboard 2.

Hy Guys,
Is there a possibility to get the default Keyboard installed on the Desire? I really like this keyboard and would like to have it back without installing a Non-Sense ROM. Can anyone help me? By the way. It has to be a german layout.
If you mean the default black android keyboard it's already on your desire. Just click in whatever text input field so that your keyboard pops up. Then long-press the input field. Now a menu will popup in which you can choose "Input Method". If you select that you can switch between all installed keyboards on your phone. The stock desire rom has the HTC and default Android keyboards installed.
If I do this I only get the method Touch Input. If I go to the settings I also just get the settings for Touch Input, which is the HTC Keyboard. Did I make a mistake?
I installed the touch keyboard + touch keypad and changed the immission setting in the system. When I switch off and on the keyboard resets to the default one. How can I avoid this?
You haven't posted what keyboard exactly, the rom you use, or your phone details. Can you get these and I can have a look
