Using chat on Droid Evo

Unread post by trnwatcher »

Z---any idea on how to get the chat to work on an HTC Evo? I can see the chat just fine and type into the box. However, when I press the "virtual" enter key on the "virtual" kb display it does not send the text. CRJon and Rsimons where both saying the other day that this is a known bug with the mobil website. Never used it on thesite before, but this past weekend I wanted to message some of you guys that where out chasing reroutes and was seeing your posting on the chat...but couldnt communicate with ya. Got any ideas?

Odd. I can scroll just fine. Enter does not work for chat. It works fine on the boards.

Scrolling on Apple products is easy on things like the chat. Place one finger on the chat page, then with another finger, scroll up and down on the chat page. You can't scroll very far up though...

Yeah, I can scroll the actual forums no problem. It's just the chat box where the scrolling doesn't work. I have Sprint but it shouldn't matter.
