Phone Pad alternative?

[Guest Paul [MVP]]

I'm really missing Phone Pad from my HTC devices that allows T9 input... does anyone know of any good alternatives?

I've even tried to get Phone Pad running on the A701, no dice yet... ;)

[Guest Paul [MVP]]

Success! ;)

I can confirm it's possible, although somewhat challenging...

Hi Paul,

How did you get it to work? I tried but it was unsuccessful.

I have a working .cab file for this (intellipad) if anyone wants it. It has just installed on my a701 and works great.

[Guest arita99]

murf62,

I'm interested, can you upload it somehow or send it to me?

[Guest murf62]

Yep, I will upload it tonight when I get home.

If anyone knows how to make it remember my word entries after a soft reset, I would appreciate it?

hi, thanks for this program, but what do i do to install it, do i unzip it or send it to the phone as a zip folder :cry:

where do i send it to on the phone so i can install it.

sorry for being thick on the issue.

nokia symbian phones is my area, so its all new to me with this A701.

[Guest murf62]

Transfer it to the phone wherever you want then click on it on the phone. It will then install & you can remove the .cab file from your phone when it's done.

Copy cab to the phone using activesync etc..

Open filemanager and click the file, this will start the installation process.

[Guest arita99]

Thanks murf62,

I installed it but it still doesn't work. It's like my phonepad .cab file. When I select Intellipad as the input method instead of keyboard, nothing happens, it stays in keyboard. Is there anything I have to do first?

[Guest murf62]

Nope, I just selected intellipad then did a soft reset for good luck. Works fine for me.

Can someone else try it on an a701 to make sure I'm not the exception here?

How do you exactly set intellipad as the input method? Maybe I did it wrong?

[Guest murf62]

It comes up in the list at the bottom. Click the little arrow next to the keyboard icon as if you were changing to transcriber.

That's exactly what I do, but in mine nothing happens, it stays in keyboard.

Really strange, maybe I'll give it another try the next time I hard reset mine.

Thx again for your help.

[Guest murf62]

I had to soft reset after installing it to get it to work on mine. Is intellipad in the list or does it just not appear there?

Yes IntelliPad is in the list, I also soft reset after the installation but still nothing.

Same thing happens to me sometimes an my A701. Sometimes IntelliPad works fine. Others I click it but it just stays on the keyboard.

If I reset it works sometimes but not others. It's getting really annoying cos I'm so used to my MDA Compact II.

[Guest jn753]

I install the .cab & Intellipad appears in the Input menu fine & it works... then on the next software reset, it disappears from the Input menu & I have to reinstall (to Device) from the .cab once again. Since I software reset my A701 about twice a day, this .cab file is not proving very useful, although the software is good when it is in memory (so to speak). :)

[Guest xxxpongxxx]

installed it... did a soft reset....

went to sms... checked the sip... the little arrow there... no intellipad...

whats wrong?

btw im using an atom

[Guest pna]

Just bought an A701 - brilliant phone....but also wanted intellipad.

Downloaded from here, installed direct to device, but no sign of it at all when I click the keyboard icon (even after a soft reset).

Sounds like I'm not the only one - has anyone come up with a reason for this as yet?

Hi,

I have I-Mate K-Jam and have the T9 phone pad as shown by you pre-installed.

The problem I face is every time I re-boot, the default input type goes to "keyboard" and I prefer phone pad & have to change it.

Any reg entry which I could modify to keep phone pad as my default input type ?

Thanx.
