INPUT KEYBOARD pop , how to stop automatic popping up
I have some software that requires and User and password input, and the WM5 INPUT keyboard pop up tool automatically pops up when I go to this screen.
How can I turn this Wm5 input tool off, or to manual, or just not to pop up, whenever a text entry is required in a software form.
Any ideas ?

look for "Make the SIP stop coming up" under Pocket PC Specific
Check this freeware solution out:
PHM Power Toys.
Scroll down to the bottom for the external keyboard.
Select this from the SIP panel and the popup is gone.
There are a few other good utilities in this package, but that one solves a big problem.
All the above solutions dont work for Wm5, any more ideas ?
I found this solution for WM5 and nullkeyboard
http://personales.ya.com/beemer/prod03.htm
nullkb.ARM4.cab (84kB) Windows Mobile 2003 y Windows Mobile 5, QVGA y VGA.
I'm using this Nullkeyboard since 4 months, works fine.
I've been using the method described in the MSblog linked to by mrandery. Just click in a text input box, ignore the on screen keyboard (i.e. don't close it) and type with the universal's built in keyboard. The onscreen keyboard will go away and won't come back unless you click on it again, unless you use some badly written software that explictily calls for it to appear.
Do you know how to set the input mode to numeric on the text field using windows mobile 6.5? (HTC HD2)
I want the SIP keyboard to display only numeric keys.
I tried many examples with no luck.
Thanks
you could always click ion the little up arrow next to the keyboard icon at the bottom center and select the numerical keypad.
I want to do it programmatically using visual studio vb.net, I'm developing and application.

It actually works pretty well.
In browser
page up/down works
esc works
power button- turns tab screen off
home screen
space bar brings up google search
arrows moves screen
not sure how i scrooled and selected widgets (pressed a lot of buttons)
And menu button works
Agreed. I've only used a dell keyboard for a while but it worked just fine. Better than the horrible default keyboard (I'm used to swype)
What do you use for a mouse (or do you have to touch the screen after typing?) This is the part I've been trying to figure out.

Yes, or you could use the arrows.
Cable-free free keyboard for your tablette !
Go to the market and load the free utility called "Wifikeyboard".
After just a few extremly easy parameter settings on the tablette only, the keyboard of ANY PC connected to your WIFI network can be used to fill-in ANY input field on your Android tablette !
It supports international keyboards (in my case - french AZERTY) perfectly.
In fact, you type into a field in the window of your prefered internet browser on your PC and the text you type is echoed on your tablette - which means that you can even cut/paste on your PC large text that your want to "type" in your tablette!
I now use an old lightweight netPC as my long text input device/wordprocessing/mail into my tablette.
Clever, isn't it ?
PS : By the way, you can use a USB cable to the PC too. But why bother with cable ? I dont see any reason but the lack of local WIFI.
I've recently been trying to learn german just to expand my knowledge a bit, this of course requires german characters however I am using a laptop with a UK English keyboard for which there is no way to type german characters without the old alt+numpad trick, which is great but my laptop doesnt have a numpad either as phyical keys or a Fn+something else combo.
My intended solution was to over-ride the existing alt-gr + u = ú as is default on a UK keyboard to be ü instead and managed to create this new layout with the old Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator tool here: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=22339
But I cannot for the life of me work out how to activate a file created with that tool as my actual keyboard layout.
The only guide I found simply said to double click the .ksc file and windows will do the rest, no, it opened the tool again. If I select project > test keyboard layout it works 100% perfectly. I did find build DLL and setup package in that menu too, this gave me a setup.exe which I have ran but my new layout does not appear as an option in control panel as a selectable layout for any language?
I have tried rebooting the system, it still doesnt appear as an option. Is it not possible to use 3rd party keyboard layouts anymore?
Rebooted (again), re-ran the setup program, rebooted again and it still wasnt there but was importable as a layout in the editing tool, rebooted yet again and it suddenly enabled itself as the active language.
So I guess its sorted but being very temperamental about installation in the first place.
Why not just install the German keyboard via Control Panel | Language. It's fast to toggle between keyboards with Win+Space. Umlauted vowels (and anything language-specific) are then easily accessible.
For single-key mapping, the old KeyTweak still works fine in 8.1. Pretty simple to use. My old KB doesn't have the Windows key, and I was surprised that it could be remapped.
That was my original workaround, but that stuck the umlauted keys ontop of things like - and ; At least with my reconfigured keyboard I can make the connection between u and ü and I no longer have to cycle languages occasionally, didnt appreciate the swapping of Y and Z much either.
Although thats another weird issue. right now win key + space does nothing because I have turned german language off again, but sometimes after restoring from hibernate English US appears as an option I can switch between, then hibernate and resume the machine again and English US disappears? Very strange, not a major issue at least.
>but that stuck the umlauted keys ontop of things like - and ;
If you're learning Deutsch, I doubt a single key remap is adequate. Have hard-copy printout of the KB layout next to you, and refer to it. Or, if you just need the occasional ä/ö/ü, toggle out, type the char, and toggle back to ENG. Although English is now my primary language, this is what I do when I need to type in my native tongue.
Have not encountered issues with hibernating and disappearing keyboards. Then again, I don't do hib. The active keyboard has an indicator on the taskbar, so there shouldn't be confusion.
My keyboard is down. Is there any way to run my desktop computer?
It depends on whether the BIOS is set to lock to boot without a keyboard.
New motherboards allow you to use a mouse in the BIOS. On Windows, you can use the on-screen keyboard.

How do you enable on screen keyboard?
Before logging into Windows, there is a special icon with accessibility.
After logging in, choose Programs/Access Ease/Screen Keyboard.
I don't have the English version of windows so I don't know if the nomenclature I used is correct.
