I know, this seems like regression, what with enhanced qwerty keyboards and all (I'm currently using PCMKeyboard), but a friend likes to SMS the old-school way (and is quite fast at it), and is looking for the standard 12-key keypad for his TyTN II.
Anybody know where I can get a *.cab file or similar?

Hey thanks. I already found the Touch-Keyboard-Keypad.cab over on mobiletopsoft. But now I'm experiencing the autocorrect interruption when using the hardware keyboard. I'll try that file you suggested and hope it works better.
Thanks again
hi i purchased vito sms chat and have had a problem with the typing in landscape mode, its not there. it doesnt appear in the text box until after it is sent. I had this issue in both wm6 and wm6.1 and have searched it for weeks and havent been able to find a solution, i tried disabling cleartype landscape and many other things but nothing seems to work. Can anyone point me in the right direction or has anyone else experienced this?
Thanks in advance,
Fjc3
I've downloaded and tried the SMS-Chat, I think the problem is not the software but the WM6.1 have issue with displaying typed clear type text in landscape...
Vito's FunContact also does not work when you try to create/edit a contact and entered any text in landscape mode, texts simply would not show up untill you flip your screen back to vertical orientation...
I've sent a message to the tech support at VITO maybe they can give me an answer.
Unless the SMS-Chat have option to disable cleartype in landscape, it is not useable when typing in landscape mode using either QWERT keyboard or onscreen keyboard.

thanks for the reply, lets hope VITO can give us a solution!
I highly doubt Vito can give a solution other than revert back to 6.0 or just turn off cleartype in landscape.
6.1 doesn't allow it in any programs I have used.

the text didnt show up in 6.0 either.
I had the same problem with IE in landscape mode. I turned off cleartype and rebooted and it was fixed.

i had to do that for my IE as well but that fix doesn't seem to work for SMS-Chat.
actually i just noticed, oddly enough, if you type with keyboard (landscape) and then close keyboard before sending the message your written text appears in text box and if you slide open again the text will stay but new text will again be invisible... i have all cleartype disabled and cannot think of what the problem may be. maybe the application uses cleartype in landscape on its own???
You guys should try L26's Diamond V9 ROM. I have zero problem with cleartype in landscape mode in any application.

I am actually on L26 v9 coincidentally i have updated roms every time he comes out with a new one since v1 and check for v10 every day lol. I have no problems with other apps both in landscape and in portrait but this one is giving me a hard time tho.
This is serious issue, I have it on my tilt too and I havew l26V9 too... this is ridiculous...
I tried to change HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\ClearTypeSettings key: offonlandscape with no luck, anyone has any idea?
I have Alex's newest ROM, and have no difficulty using Vito SMS chat. I can see the text as I'm typing it in (in landscape mode, of course), and can see all of the messages I've received or sent. It's in cool colors, too!

I installed AT&T's WM6.0 Stock rom on my Tilt and it indeed works perfectly, so does Fun Contacts by Vito.
You can't simply disable cleartype in the system to solve this problem associated with Vito softwares. Why? Because the software itself forces the use of clear-type fonts regardless of system setting in landscape mode.
I've got a response back from VITO support, NO They can't fix this problem unless it is fixed by microsoft in WM6.1

that makes sense, i guess we will have to hope that the cleartype issue gets figured out in a new 6.1 ROM
Is there an alternative for that program?

PocketCM Keyboard is a freeware alternative. But I guess you've paied for Vito SMS Chat right? I would not be satisfied with their answer.
Vito should add an option to enable\disable in their program. Should not be the hardest thing to do.
Voice your concerns on http://www.technologyatplay.com/main-mobile/forums/forum-view.asp?fid=165
Seems its the VITO forum that their developer visit.
looks like this could be the solution to our problem.... i have asked Leo to include it in his next ROM. lets hope he does!
Hi everybody,
I looking for a tool to protect the SMS folder from being viewed. Is there any password application etc. available? I'm using a HTC Kaiser with WM 6.1.
Thx

i havent come across such an application yet!
Having secrets from the wife/gf?
Just lock the whole thing.
Hey somebody should really work on this is a great idea secrets lol hmmm greaat idea
I believe that there are some in the market, try to google "secret sms" ....but none is freeware though .....
yeah i would really use something like this. I remember on my old phone i could jus lock certain application without locking the whole phone and the only one i would lock would be the sms. so if someone could develop a lock sms it would greatly be appreciated.
search for lockdown or something like that.
I know it is changed to Landscape mode automatically by G-sensor.
However, I think 'Landscape' mode does not work whole programme, such as Word Mobile.
Do you know how to change 'Landscape' mode as manual?
I cannot found in 'Screen' setting.

Thanks but I am afraid I explained wrong.
I am happy with 'Auto-Rotation' function.
However, I wonder to see other programme (E.g. Touch Flo3d, Word...) as landscape mode.
I used to use WM5 (Trinity), it is able to change Landscape mode on Screen (Setting). However, I am not sure I cannot find how to rotate screen on Touch Diamond2.
Search for Gsen and other programs in the Diamond or Blackstone forums that let you choose which app is rotated. There's also a post somewhere about some REG edits that lets you configure the G-sensor app in the lastetst Topaz Roms (the one you are currently using) the way you want it.
I'm using G-Config:

Hey Guys, I was wondering if there is a low memory program that allows for horizontal texting and emailing with the Diamond. I've seen programs that can be used for all windows and programs but I only need a program which is for the keyboard when emailing and texting.
Thanks
Finger Keyboard supports landscape and its free:

i don't think you can have a separate keyboard just for txt and emails.
How do you make it landscape? I've downloaded that and it doesn't seem to go landscape when I tilt it?
