hi.
when you change the spb keayboard to the fullscreen version it rotates automatically to landscape. but when you turn the device to landscape mode gyrator notices it and changes the application you are typing in and the spb keyboard disappears.
how can you change that?
I have this issue too and would be interested if anyone knows how to stop it from closing the keyboard on rotation
I have the same problem! Please someone help us! =(
I had the same problem so I uninstalled it and used this program: -
"[APP] Alternative to Gyrator / Screen tilt app"
I don't have the problem now.
Hey Checkov!
Thanks for the info! But please tell me, if the app you suggested automatically ignores screen rotation within SPB Keyboard or if you added an exception? If the latter is the case, please provide the info you used, since you can add exceptions with Gyrator as well!
If you didn't add an exception I guess I'll uninstall gyrator and switch!
Thanks,
Martin
The other program has the same problem...
Hi again!
I just tried using the program you suggested but it has the exact same problem: Whenever I use my device in portrait mode and open the fullscreen SPB Keyboard and rotate my device to use the keyboard, the keyboard disappears!

with my german MDA Pro I experience a very annoying behavior of the software keybord (the one displayed on the screen). Whenver I focus an textfield (i.e. pocketIE adressbar, or when renaming a file in total commander etc.) that software keyboard pops up. Now as long as I am in portrait mode that MIGHT be a helpful feature. But when I am in landscape mode and I have the hardwarekeyboard available this is useless and annoying. So is there a way to surpress this? I seems that this popup does nto happen always. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't - I just was not able to find out what it depends on.
Same Prob too.
It sucks !
Someone can help ?
PHM PowerToys has an "Extended Keyboard SIP" bundled in with all its other goodies. No keyboard pops up when you select that as your default input method.
I found a "ripped" version of just the keyboard SIP without having to install all the other stuff.

Let me know if this works for you.
what does this keyboard tool actually do? does it just set some registry setting ? can I uninstall it after I have run it ? Or must this App raun ALL THE TIME to make it work ? (the latter would suck since eats ressources)
It just add another SIP into your other one
But this time, it will show nothing so you can use your keyboard freely
And no, it should not take up any resource, if any, it will be very very very little
Fear not chaps, I posted about this and just use the hard keyboard and it 'learns' not to pop up in landscape mode.
Hope it helps
it does learn, but i think it learned by selecting an alternative input as the default.
Hey all, just wondering if anyone out there would know how to edit the reply button in the standard wm6 sms notification to open pocketcm in landscape mode? This would be really helpful in that you would have a much larger, more convenient kb, and have it do it automatically everytime.
Thanks, Jim.
Tene, the developer of pocketCM keyboard said this was not possible to do automatically. The best method is to map a key on your device to do the rotate screen. Unfortunately you will likely still need to open (press the keyboard icon) the keyboard once it changes orientations.
Hi All,
I am a newbie to I have a htc touch. I am trying to install Pocket CM keypad on my phone. I downloaded the .cab file from the website and i copied it to my phone using activesync. When i click on that cab file I just get a message Pocket CM installation unsuccessful.
Please let me how to install it. Also i want to install the contact on my phone
Also can someone suggest which is the best keypad software I can install. Also what is the software I have to install to switch the phone from potrait mode landscape mode and vice versa
Best input soft - EzInput
Screen rotation software - Windows Mobile Settings -> |System| -> Screen -> Landscape or tap screen rotation icon on HTC Home Launcher tab.
Thanks for that input. But that will permanently change the screen to landscape mode. I want it only on need basis. That is why I posted.
Besides In my phone i have two keypads. One is touch keypad and another touch keyboard.
The problem is most of the times when not reqd "touch keyboard" which is qwerty shows up.
When i want to type a message or a document then only "touch keypad" shows up.
This is highly irritating. Can somebody help me how to get around this. I want to use the qwerty keyboard for typing messages and working with doc.
I have been reading in the website that it is possible to have the qwerty keyboard working with messaging or while typing email
Can some body please tell me how to enable/disable the 20 key keypad and enable the touch keyboard when reqd.
Please please post a reply
I tried the work around of setting the registry key. but now i am having other problems when i press the green button the call keypad does not come. I also cannot press the button 1 to rotate the screen.
Now I have changed the registry key back now. Now I am back to square 1. The two key touch keypad appears for messaging or email. But i cant get the qwerty keypad.
Can some one point me to the fix for the same please. so that i can use the touch keyboard for messaging.
Many thanks in advance
Man, try EzInput. It looks better, works better and touch keypad doesn't switch to qwerty in some apps - you can choose which do you want! Touch keypad OR qwerty. I'm using it 'cause this switching freaked me a lot and now it's OK with EzInput
Can you please point me to the ezinput cab file and how to install it please. Many thanks in advance

Hi, i installed S2U2 and my keyboard began to change its layout when i rotate the phone. On portrait its phone keyboard and on landscape it's QWERTY. I uninstalled S2U2, but it continued happening. Does anyone know how to stop this? Thanks in advance.
not sure whether that problem is related to s2u2... i think the reson for changing is that the phone keyboard is not available at all in landscape!? or are you sure that it was before installing s2u2?
regards jan
Hi,
I just checked it, there is no phone keyboard layout available in landscape mode.
I did not install a 3rd party keyboard software on my HD.
cheers Avalun.

Hi, I installed Spb keyboard and I'm quite happy with it, however I have a little issue: everytime I Soft Reset my phone the keyboard launches on startup regardless whether I set Spb keyboard as system default or the built in. Any ideas how to correct this?
I'm using ROM 1.48.479.1 and have installed Touch-X taskbar and sdkcert.cab
