How to Fix Spacebar on Sidekick LX or Sidekick 2008

Sidekick LX or Sidekick 2008 Space Bar Not Working

Is the space bar on your Sidekick LX not working when you are trying to text or in AIM? Do you have thesame space bar button problem on your T-mobile Sidekick 2008? Does the Sidekick spacebar work in other apps though?

If so then this fix is for you.

1. Open the AutoText & Spelling screen. From the Jump screen, press the MENU button, then select Settings > AutoText & Spelling.

2. Uncheck the following settings:

- Highlight misspelled words
- Auto correct spelling

3. Exit out of the settings screen and try it out.

Hopefully, this will have solved your issue.

How to check for misspelled words with these two options unchecked?

Run a manual spell check on T-mobile Sidekick: To run a spell check while in a text field from any Edit Text submenu, or by using the keyboard shortcut by pressing MENU +S.
