I installed nueSlidingKB, and have it set up to open the Full QWERTY in portrait and NullKB in landscape. When sliding out the keyboard it doesn't change to NullKB. However, if i manually change it to NullKB, and I slide the keyboard back in it WILL automatically change to Full QWERTY. Any ideas on how to get it to change in landscape?

I put the rotate screen in my launcher so I can goto landscape without opening the keyboard for GPS, pics, etc. It rotates the screen 90 degrees right when holding the device upright making it upside down to the keyboard. How can I make it rotate the other way so I can access the keyboard if I want without rotating the device 180 degrees?
first go in settings/screen and set it to the landscape mode you want, then exit, get back in there and set it portrait. this way it remembers the landscape mode you want and when calling rotate screen it will rotate ok

I tried that just now and it still reverts to "Left-Handed" mode when I click rotate screen.
i think the rotate program you use tells the kaiser the landscape mode to use.
try to assign rotate to a hardware button(the default rotate in WM), and that should work (i use hold voice button)
Greets,
I have been trying to figure out how to change the regular on-screen keyboard from the Tilt to the SPB Full Screen Keyboard.
Since I do not want to change from the real keyboard (as an option), the "Input" control panel isn't the right choice.
I just want to make the SPB Keyboard come up when I hit that little keyboard icon which comes up on the bottom of the screen.
Any ideas?
This should allow you to change the default keyboard.

Try this directly. It's a keyboard that works as default properly. you don't need any external tools.
There seem to be issues with Windows Mobile 6.1 and Landscape.
If you switch the display to landscape, and reboot the phone, it will change back to portrait.
If you press the missed calls button in HTC Home while in landscape, it will switch back to portrait.
Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
Alright, I fixed the missed calls issue with a new dialer, but the phone still consistantly boots into Portrait.
i'm not too sure but i would assume u have a kaiser...and when u say it boots into portrait i assume its a soft reset or a power on...and i assume that when you're in landscape mode u have the hardware keyboard slid out...if it boots to portrait...cant u just slide in n out the keyboard to have it go back to landscape?
Sure, when I slide out the keyboard, it goes into landscape. However, when I close it again, it goes back into portrait.
If, after the phone has booted, I go into Screen options and change it back to Landscape, it will stay in landscape regardless of what I do.
When I soft-reset, it goes back into portrait. If they keyboard is open, it will start in portrait, then shift into landscape. Upon closing the keyboard, it's back to portrait.
This is the default behavior for HTC devices. My Wizard did this just like my Tilt. I would suspect the cause is because when you slide out the hardware keyboard, a sensor activates a service running in the WM subsystem that tells WM to rotate the screen.
However, if you actually go into the screen options and change the default screen orientation to landscape, the registry is updated to reflect landscape as the new default orientation.

So yeah, done that.
Windows Mobile 6.0 did not have this problem. If you set it to Landscape in screen options, and rebooted, it would stay in landscape. This issue with it always booting in portrait is new in 6.1.
Same problem here.. anybody found any solution? Thanks.
I've set my Touch Diamond up with the Landscape Manila mod and have installed Flip IT (also tried Gyrator, only Flip IT triggered Landscape Manila) - both work as expected, giving me a nice landscape Today screen and rotating other applications as desired.
One big issue I've hit, though, is that on rotation from portrait to landscape, the keyboard breaks and has to be changed. By default, I use the Compact QWERTY keyboard as I prefer it in portrait mode, but when in landscape mode I would like to (and am forced to anyway) use the Full QWERTY keyboard.
Is there a way to set the keyboard to Full QWERTY when the device goes into landscape mode and Compact QWERTY when it goes into portrait mode? I had no luck with searching the entire Diamond forum.
Thanks,
Nick
P.S. For reference, I'm running A.Z.T.O.R. V7 WWE ROM.
Although it's developed for other purposes, PQzII works very well.
Thanks for the tip Obsidian, but I'm not sure I understand how this will fix the issue. It sounds like you've got it working as desired, can you give me any tips on how to set it up properly for the purpose described above?
Thanks,
Nick
It works pretty much as it is described here:
After you start the programm you see a white square in your taskbar
If you press and hold it, you'll be able to configure the settings (which icon to use and many more)
Right on the first tab "CTRL/ALT" you'll be able to choose a SIP for portrait (Port) and another one for landscape (Land)
Hit ok and you're done. The change takes a little time, so be patient.
Ah, I see, so it's still a manual solution. As it stands right now, I can use the keyboard softkey to switch successfully.
Mainly, I'm looking for a way to have the keyboards seamlessly switch when the mode changes, like on the iPhone. I wouldn't mind so much about switching actual keyboards (i.e. Compact QWERTY to Full QWERTY) physically if they would just remain displayed after the switch; right now, on switching modes, the keyboard disappears completely.
Any other ideas out there?
Thanks,
Nick
I would also like this feature as I am used to typing in the Compact Qwerty, when I switch to landscape the Compact Qwerty option disappears. Perhaps there is a registry tweak to enable it?
By default the keyboard is shown in portrait mode. When i switch to landscape, the keyboard disappears . (Tried with standard HTC-keyboard and FingerKeyboard)
Any solutions? Thanks in advance.
Yeah, click in the text box and the keyboard will pop up again.
Yes, i know that. Thanks
The point is the behavior by default. I want the keyboard shown by default without clicking anywhere.
