I'm wondering if you are using the stock messaging app and keyboard on phone.

I'm not entirely sure what you meant by changing paragraph but I use free Handcent sms from the market and the skinned(customised) HTC_IME keyboard from XDA developers site by a chap called Gimpsta (also free unless you wish to add to his beer stocks!). I seemed to be able to move around quite happily within the text body, inserting text, adding returns/extra lines.

Hope this helps?!

Hi just as an after thought I have tried the HTC_IME download on both Handcent and the stock messaging system and it lets you do a 'return' to get you

what you were after

Handcent app with HTC_IME keyboard

stock messaging with HTC_IME keypad

Hi there

These are the instructions that I followed but I will also give you the links to the forum pages on XDA developers, because there are two version to choose from... the standard which is from a chap called Jonasl and the second from Gimpsta who has a link to his website where you can skin (customise) the appearance of the keyboard.

Both keyboards are in essence the same HTC keyboard which gives you a standard qwerty/compact qwerty/numeric keypad. The numeric auto flips into qwerty when you go from portrait to landscape with the phone which is the option I happen to love.

Hope you get on OK!
