Samsung Omnia hang with touchpal installed.

There seems to be the problem after installing touchpal on Omnia..
Occasionally but almost everyday.. the phone will hang and requires a soft reset.  Omnia screen will not wake up.

I'm sure quite a few omnia users had encountered the problem and  is frustrated for not being able to use a good keyboard. Hopeful CooTek can look into our plight soon. Thanks.

Not sure if it will help but for me,
I can only say most of the time Omnia hangs when there are appointment reminders with touchpal installed.

I'm trying touchpal now with chinese language uninstalled and changing different setting hopefully can find the root of the cause.

Thanks. Please keep us posted if you can help find some clue.

Hi,

Same with me in Indonesia, after install touchpal, the unit always hang after i got phone call, after reminder, and if the phone go to standby mode (blank screen), i can't wake up the phone

Just wait for a new version of touchpal which can work with omnia

regards

Paul

We don't have Omnia so we can't figure out the problem. But some users on Omnia seem to use TouchPal correctly.

My Settings:-

Add space after word

Enhance mistyping correction

Predict based on context -----

Predict next word

Set as Default SIP

Enable sound effect

 

What I type

I type (without “)

“I was wondering where you were”

 

The fault

After typing were and selecting space, the Omnia does a soft reset. This consistently happens.)

 

The Short term fix

If I Deselect “Predict based on context” but leave all other settings as above then there is no problem. So it would appear the bug is associated with the selection of “Predict based on context”. Hope this helps.

I didn't know why my Omnia kept freezing up until my colleague installed the touchpal and it hung his set 1 hour later.  So that's 2 sets of Omnia with (G4 ROM).  Omnia refuses to turn on after the auto power off.  I remember I tried installing both in Memory and on "my storage", no diff.

Hi, still good today, thanks tafromoz

Hi,

Any news on the solution for this problem? I love the keyboard but can not use it on my Omnia because of the constant hanging.

There is no other keyboard that comes close on the Omnia (IMO) so currently no alternatives.

Please keep us up to date on your findings.

Thanks,

Paul

hi, we wanna fix the bugs in Omnia with a new version, which will be released by next month.
So, plz wait a few weeks...

Any news on a solution for this issue? My phone hangs one to three times a day. By "hangs" I mean it refuses to wake-up occassionally. A tap of the power button does nothing and holding it down for several seconds is no different. It won't charge or respond to phone calls when it is in this state.
