As others suggested (oseven) I've started a new thread for checking your opinion on this release.
To clearify, I am not affiliated with Fingertouchpro.com , but I saw many other keyboards advertised in this forum, that are not so good as this one, so I think it is my responsibility to make people aware of a great product.
Quoting from the product description:
"Fingertouch Professional is by FAR the best keyboard released for the Pocket PC platform. Big, finger friendly keys, fT9 technology, UltraKeyboard technology, predictive keyboard, multiple languages, drag-and-drop configurable keyboard, gestures, skins, magnifier, are just a few to provide an insight into the thought and research that went into developing this program. Entering text on your Pocket PC has never been this fast! "
The new release 2.0.RC-6 offers WM6.1 compatibility. As a note this keyboard also works with TrueVGA modes.
It supports several languages: English, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian and Greek. More languages can be customized by the user.

There are several videos showing FTPRO in action, some of them work as tutorials, for showing some interesting features like: fast t9 input, resizable sip size, adding new words to the dictioanry.
I'm looking forward to your opinion. I'm planning to do a short comparison between the available keyboards.
There also is a freeware version of FT, see:

Does it address the following issues???????????????????????
eaglesteve said:
Macaby007,
Thank you for introducing us to another keyboard options. I'm constantly on a lookout for better applications, be it the task manager, file manager, or battery gauge. I don't have special allegiance to any of them. It is the same when come to software keyboard.
By now,I'd have tried both Finger Touch and Tengo for a very extensive period without any prejudice against either one,
I would like to offer my view,which happens to differ from yours. I hope you do not take offence that I have a different opinion.
For me, I look at the following issues when choosing my most favoured keyboard and I look at these issues not just for these two keyboards but all future one that come along.
Real VGA compliant
= = = = = = = = = = = = =
This should be the very first criteria for those of us using Tobias' wonderful realVGA utility.
The standard Finger Touch does not support real VGA, but the specially created version for PK ROM does. Tengo supports all threeall along. I would be generous, and consider Finger Touch realVGA compliant on all VGA devices, not just the special version on Athena.
Score Tengo vs FT: 1:1
Key sizes for ABC keys
= = = = = = = = = = = = = =
This affects the ease of hitting the key. The larger the hitting area the better it will be to quicklyhit a key without missing it. Large hitting area is good whetherwe use stylus, finger,or thumb.
The Portrait mode Key size of the most likely to be used layout is measured. Size of Tengo Nano layout and layout 1 for Finger Touch are compared.
Tengo Nano key size: 108 square mm
Finger Touch key size: 56.25 square mm
Score Tengo vs FT: 2:1
Distance travelled to go from alpha key to alpha key
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Do you have to swing your stylus from coordinate 1,1 to 10,3? Does your thumb need to stretch to the centre of the keyboard, then very quickl bend unnaturally inward to reach for the z and m keys? Wouldn't it be much better if the thumb is relaxed around the TYGHVB key areas, and not having to travel to the QAZPLM areas?
Score Tengo vs FT: 3:1
The number of keys to choose from
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Typical keyboard has 26 keys to choose from when typing a alphabet character. A keyboard that groups these 26 keys into fewer keys means four things:
1) less choices means quicker choices.
2) less choices means less chances of mistakes
3) less keys means travel distan from key to key is minimised, hence faster typing speed.
4) less grouping also means we have larger hitting area, as mentioned in the preceding paragraph.
Tengo groups the keys into 6 while Finger Touchdoes not group them.
Score Tengo vs FT: 4:1
Direct access to numbers and commonly used punctuation marks
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
It is just more convenient to have these commonly required keys directly accessible.
Both the layout compared does this.
Score Tengo vs FT: 4:1
Screen real estate invaded.
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Why do people want real VGA? It's because we value seeing more.
When we use a hardware keyboard, the biggest benefit is it leaves our screen completely available for the applications at all time. Software keyboard takes over some of the previous real estate. While we want large hitting area,we also at the same time want more screen space for the application, especially in landscape mode.
Can this contradiction be solved?
The most ideal keyboard would have a very low height but large hitting areas, yet having direct access to all alphas,numbers,and common punctuations.
Height of Tengo nano: 24mm - you see more
Height of Finger Touch: 37.5mm - you see less
Score Tengo vs FT: 5:1
Completeness of functions
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
The main things that I look for are:
- cut and copy, either using CTRL + XCV or special keys.
Both keyboards have CTRL keys, but Tengo also have special cut/copy/paste keys.
- delete last character or word.
Both keyboards can delete the last character, but Tengo can also delete the last word without needing to first highlight the word.
- Changing CAP for whole word or first character of word just typed.
In Finger Touch, you must decide to cap it BEFORE typing. In Tengo, you can do that, but additionally you can type first, then cap the first character or the entire word AFTER typing - I use this feature very often.
- completeness of symbols: while this may sound obvious and even taken for granted, there are keyboards out there with incomplete symbols. Happy Tapping keyboard does not have £ sign is an example.
Finger Touch has these [email protected]#$%^&*()/<>,.?`-=[]\;' ~_+{}|:"
Tengo has these symbols
@#$%^&()/<>,.?!+':"_ \` *¢ ;=[ ]{ } ~ £ ¥ € ± ^ ®© ™ |º § « » ¿¡ ¶ µ
These characters are in Tengo and not in FT:
'¢ £ ¥ € ± ^ ®© ™ º § « » ¿¡ ¶ µ
Every symbol in FT is also in Tengo.
- support for canned message,or fast keyboard. It would increase productivity a great deal to have phrases such as 'what are you up to' being inserted my choosing from an ordered pre-stored message list. This function is already available in the sms application, but having it as the keyboard function means other applications can benefit from this function too.
Both does this.
- Support for accented words such as café, and the ease of doing it.
Tengo does this. I don't see this function in Finger Touch.
- multi language support.
Tengo supports Danish,Dutch,English,Finnish, French, German, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Spanish, and Swedish.
Finger Touch supports English. I could not find any information on the vendor website that suggest Finger Touch has similar functionality.
That's the list of functions I've listed but you may have others. Please feel free to mention them.
So, contrary to Macaby007's view in posting 1, I give the point on comprehensiveness to Tengo rather than Finger Touch.
Score Tengo vs FT: 6:1
Ease of updating the dictionary
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Like it or not, the standard dictionary will not contain all the words you use.
Tengo lets you add and remove words easily. I can't figure out how this could be done with Finger Touch
I would give Finger Touch the benefit of doubt and consider it capable of this
Score Tengo vs FT: 7:2
In conclusion, I still think Tengo is the best software keyboard between the two.
Cheers.

Fex, I'm sure this kind of language is not tolerated here, and may I suggest you get a check for anger control...
As I already said, I only posted about FTPRO were I've seen ads to other keyboards.
You can see that all my posts are following some other keyboard crap (TP).
So if you're talking about advertising, you should discuss with those that started those initial threads.
I did this, because I need to show others that there are better alternatives, not to let themselves fooled by some cheap apps promovated on this forum.

People have, do, and will always make their own decisions. People have posted their comments about TouchPal, and they are just that - comments, not advertisements! This is a forum where discussion of opinion takes place, not advertising..find a billboard or something for that. You're just using this forum as a free way of promoting your keyboard as much as you can, and I for one am sick of it.
You've said your piece, why can't you drop it now?
PS: Don't pick up on Fex's language and then use it yourself.

Well you can change the keyboard's size, so by doing this you can increase/decrease the size of keys to the desired value. Alternatively one can use the various layouts included (they are 5 in the last version, each layout looks and performs differently so I'd say there are lots of options here)

The keys can be moved wherever you like. You need to go to settings and enable option "Allow dragable keys" in the Layout tab. With this option enabled, you can move the keys arround with a simple drag and drop. The new configuration remains even after a reset. Here is a snapshot showing where this option is located:

The phone layout groups 3/4 characters on a key. The last layout groups 2 chars on a key. So if you disable fT9, you can type quickly using only a few keys. Or you can keep fT9 to type fast, see:

Here is a nice features: You can drag and drop the keyboard, on the left or right side, to change it's height. Basically you get as much screen space as you like. Or vice versa you can have a full screen keyboard.
There's a tutorial for this here:

In FTPRO I found all the symbols I needed. Also, regarding special functions, you can do COPY (Control + C), CUT (Control + X), Paste (Control + V), but with FTPRO you can have even more:
- Select All (Control + A ) , I'm using this a lot
- UltraKeyboard. Now this is something not many people know about. Basically it's a macroing function, you can define short words, that can be used as triggers. Eg. typing the default !cap will do a screen capture. Or you can replace short words with phrases, eg: http1 with a web address, by doing so you won't have to remember address or even phone numbers, you can use these triggers to organize them all.

Several languages can be customized , but I didn't find instructions on how to do that yet. I believe there should be a tutorial for that. Looking on the installed files, there is a folder called Layout with codes for Unicode characters. I think those can be changed to obtain different layouts.

No anger here m8 just stating that your attempt at denial of affiliation is hardly believable.
As for tolerating my language im sure that others can see your attempt to take the "piss" and the your subsequent denial (that i still believe is full of "****") is worthy of dissing with a few minor curses.

Thank you for answering. I'll check it out later after I'm done fidling with SPB Mobile Shell to make it work with Real VGA at 96 dpi on the HTC Advantage. I appreciate it.
Hi,
I have a problem running a Direct3D app on full screen on a HTC Diamond: no matter which way I create the Direct3D device, by making a window that covers the full screen, or by creating a fullscreen device, all I see is the background of the window. Nothing rendered in Direct3D is shown.
If I use a window that is, for example, one pixel shorter than the full screen - everything works fine, but "real" full screen doesn't.
The Direct3D examples from the WM6 SDK, which also create a full screen window, fail exactly the same way both on my phone and on another Diamond I've tested, so I assume it's not a problem with my configuration or ROM, but a common one. Also I've found a few similar questions on other forums, mentioning phones like the Touch Pro, but no answers.
To create a fullscreen window I do the following:
g_screenWidth = GetSystemMetrics(SM_CXSCREEN);
g_screenHeight = GetSystemMetrics(SM_CYSCREEN);
g_hWndMain = CreateWindow(szWindowClass, szTitle, WS_VISIBLE,
0, 0, g_screenWidth, g_screenHeight, NULL, NULL, hInstance, NULL);
SHFullScreen(g_hWndMain, SHFS_HIDETASKBAR | SHFS_HIDESIPBUTTON);
/* ... */
D3DMPRESENT_PARAMETERS presentParameters;
memset(&presentParameters, 0, sizeof presentParameters);
presentParameters.SwapEffect = D3DMSWAPEFFECT_DISCARD;
presentParameters.Windowed = true;
HRESULT hr = g_d3d->CreateDevice(D3DMADAPTER_DEFAULT, D3DMDEVTYPE_DEFAULT, g_hWndMain, NULL,
&presentParameters, &g_dev);
All the functions succeed, however, nothing gets drawn on the screen besides the background of the window.
The same thing happens when I create a fullscreen device, like below:
// The same window creation stuff...
// ....
presentParameters.BackBufferWidth = g_screenWidth;
presentParameters.BackBufferHeight = g_screenHeight;
presentParameters.BackBufferFormat = D3DMFMT_UNKNOWN;
presentParameters.BackBufferCount = 1;
presentParameters.SwapEffect = D3DMSWAPEFFECT_DISCARD;
presentParameters.Windowed = false;
presentParameters.FullScreen_PresentationInterval = D3DMPRESENT_INTERVAL_DEFAULT;
HRESULT hr = g_d3d->CreateDevice(D3DMADAPTER_DEFAULT, D3DMDEVTYPE_DEFAULT, g_hWndMain, NULL,
&presentParameters, &g_dev);
Again, all the calls seem to succeed, but nothing is visible on the screen. I've tried setting the pixel format explicitly - still nothing is drawn.
But if I change the window in the first example to be one pixel less than the size of the screen, everything is displayed correctly.
Does anyone know why this is happening and whether some solutions for running the app full-screen are possible? As far as I understand, VSync is available only in fullscreen mode, so I'd like to get it working - although one missing line of pixels isn't really visible on the Diamond screen.
And yet another unrelated question: does the graphics chip in the Diamond support render-to-texture? It seems to be not available in Direct3D, but it might still be exposed in OpenGL ES in that case...
Ok just saw this as part of the know your MAC address thread but wanted to pursue this just in case we find something new

Just ****ed up my accelerometer in the *#0*# menu, and now the screen doesn't rotate at all anymore.
There's a "Cal" button that I used, presumably to be able to configure the correct rotation of the phone, but I don't understand how to use the "True" or "False" returns that come up...
How do I use these controls?
Can I reset it? How?

guys... any news here?
I'll get mine early next week, and try this out as soon as I do... Has anyone tried the "Antenna / ADC" Menu? It's not all that likely, but ADC could stand for "Automatic Data Configuration" (the system used to set the MMS settings) rather than "Analog to Digital Converter" there...
Hi all, thanks for this info. Does anyone know if it is possible to calibrate the touchscreen of the Samsung Omnia 7? I noticed that the calibration is a little bit off. I can see that when I do the multi-touch test or when I use the app called "fingerpaint". I saw the "LCD Test" which has an item "Touch" but it is only a test, not a 'cal' (calibration), like some of the other menu's have.
When I touch the screen on the left side, the responsive area is a little on the left of my finger. It is not much, but I might consider returning the device if I cannot fix this myself. The device is only one day old, and I like it very much. If I would return it they will probably be able to recalibrate it, but I'm afraid that it may take a few weeks before I get it back. And I really don't like missing it already.
Thanks!

turn off 3G
Hi
There is a possibility to turn off 3G. You have to go into "Debug Screem" like gnasher666 has written. Then you choose Phone Control and then Network Control. There you choose Band Selection, where you can choose which network you want.

**ALL** diagnostic codes for SAMSUNG devices
I reverse engineered the Diagnostic Menu Application. It contains a list of configuration "Titles" with corresponding hash-codes. I made a tool to reverse the hash-codes to dial-codes. The dial-codes may not be the same as some codes that were already known, but the dial-codes are absolutely correct for these menu. Differences are due to hash-collisions (same hash-code may have multiple possible dial-codes). I just used the shortest dial-codes for every menu.
The list of menu's is very long and I discovered that not all menu-codes were not actually implemented. I guess this list of codes is used for all Samsung devices (possibly also for Galaxy S and older Windows Mobile devices). So not all dial-codes may actually work on your device.
WARNING!! The menu's can configure low-level settings of your phone. And if you don't know what you're doing you may brick your device or maybe hard-reset the device and loose all your data and settings. Or you may faulty calibrate your sensors. Be very, very careful with experimenting!! I will not take any responsibility for damaging your device in any way.
I would personally be very interested if anyone finds a way to get the device in download-mode by using these menu's (I have a bad bootloader which does not let my Samsung Omnia 7 go into download-mode to flash it to a newer firmware).
This is the list with menu-titles, dial-codes and their hashcode:

Just ****ed up my accelerometer in the *#0*# menu, and now the screen doesn't rotate at all anymore.
There's a "Cal" button that I used, presumably to be able to configure the correct rotation of the phone, but I don't understand how to use the "True" or "False" returns that come up...
How do I use these controls?
Can I reset it? How?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Go back to the setting, put the phone on a flat surface like a table and then press CAL.
Cal = Calibrate. It basically sets the accelerometer position when the phone is in default position.
*#0*# compass not working?
*#0*# -> compass .... but compass values are not well updated and does not reflect the real north?
Any hints ?
Uh, maybe a stupid question, but once I entered the diagnosis menu dialing the ##634#, I now have a Diagnosis application in the application list which takes me there as well. My question is that is it safe to 'uninstall' it? I mean will it just make the icon in the list go away or is there a chance it could actually uninstall the entire diagnosis program..?
Here is how to increase yr volume in OMNIA 7
==============================
Increase Speaker Volume
Enter the phone dialer
##634#, tap Call.
Enter code: *#0002*28346# or *#0002*28345#
Tap: Get, under the Device Gain (max/min)
First Box: 7
Second Box: change to 16000
Third Box set to 0
Tap: Set
Be sure that audience.cfg is set to on
Tap: Start
Tap: Home
Restart your phone.
After reboot, enter the same menu and just tab get to verify the settings
Increase Headphone Volume
Note: Make sure your headphones are plugged in first
Enter the phone dialer
##634#, tap Call
Enter code: *#0002*28346# or *#0002*28345#
Tap: Get under the Device Gain (max/min)
For "device gain" leave number 5, set 1100 (max) and -1100 (low)
Tap: Set
Verify that AUDIENCE.CFG is ON
Tap: Start
Tap Home
Restart your phone.
After reboot, enter the same menu and just tab get to verify the settings
Enjoy
