This is a stupid question really because I have three EVOs at home, but we all got them from the same place on the same day...
Still, when I use my phone, as stated by others, the keyboard on the EVO is not multitouch... So that brings up quite a bit of problems when typing semi fast... I constantly miss the space bar key, and when I type words, even when the preview of the letter pops up, it will not register on the screen...
A quick test of this when I place my thumbs over two keys and rock the phone i.e. the L and A key, the preview of them keep popping up, but the lalalalalalalalalalalala pattern is not consistent... Also, a batch of ten letters at a time would pop up instead of individually...
I tried this on the other phones too sorta the same deal... Then I tried it on my wife's iPhones3G and it's just instant... No lag, letters popped up as fast as I can contact the key pad...
I tried the IME mod, Smart Keyboard Free (Smart Keyboard is even worst! The lag sometimes were a second inbetween...)
Is there something I need to set? Even when I turn prediction off it's about the same, although I purely use the phone with prediction off now anyways...
I've heard Smart Keyboard recommended a few times already and it truly gives you multitouch, but it is just flipping slow... What tips do you have have? Is there a setting I gotta do to make it butter smooth?
I have mytextspeed downloaded and I score just about 30wpm on average, and even on the record piranhas text I still type about 25 - 30wpm... I know most would say try skype too, but I just feel more inclined to find a better punch keyboard if one is out there...
I avoid typing essays like this on my phone, but that's mostly due to the short comings of the keyboard... I would like to be able to type essays like this tho... Typing URLs are halfway decent thank goodness...
