I'm using second today with the TwitToday plugin (http://dalelane.co.uk/blog/?p=244) but I can't type into it with my slide out keyboard.
Anyone have an idea what might be happening? The cursor is in the twit box but none of my keys work. (the windows key works though and the FN and CAPs light lights up.)
just turned off tf3d rodium manilla and tried the plugin in the acual today screen and it works with slide out keyboard.
What is causing it to not work with second today?

yo just installed the touch keyboard on my kaiser and its great! but it refuses to go into combined key mode (where there are multiple letters on one key) in certain apps ie pocket putty. I guess this is by design but it be totally cool if I could get ut working, any ideas?
Is there a way to deactivate poping up of the touch keyboard? Everytime when I am in an input field the touch keyboard pops up. But if I really want to enter something I want to use the QWERTY hardware keyboard. So is there a way to deactivate that the touch keyboard always pops up?
3 new threads out of 5 total posts... some would look down upon that. Since a simple search by me for your problem did not yield any direct answers, here's your freebie. Welcome to XDA!
When you go to a text box in landscape mode and the onscreen keyboard pops up, tap the space bar on the hardware keyboard. That will tell the phone not to pop up the onscreen keyboard again until you tap the icon for it.
No, I mean not when I have my hardware keyboard folded out. I mean when it is folded that the touchscreen keyboard doesnt show up.

OK, let's try this again... so is this your situation?
You are using the phone in portrait mode with the hardware keyboard closed. When you click into a text box, the onscreen keyboard pops us. But you do not want the keyboard to pop up. You want to be able to click into text fields with the phone closed, but not have the onscreen keyboard pop up.
Did I summarize that correctly? If so, I'm working on the answer, give me a little bit.
--Edit--
I just tried the following steps:
Slide the phone open
Open PIE and go to Google
Tap into the text box; the onscreen keyboard did not come up
Tap the icon for the onscreen keyboard; it came up
Tap away from the text box; keyboard went away
Tap into the text box; keyboard came back
Tap Space on hardware keyboard; onscreen went away
Tap away from the text box
Slide the phone closed
Tap into the text box; onscreen keyboard did not come back
Follow my steps just to see if that is your solution. If not, it could quite possibly be ROM dependent.
Your summary is correct.
Here is what happens at my Kaiser:
When I am on google the onscreen keyboard is there. Everything else works fine but I dont like that the onscreen keyboard comes everytime I am in a textbox.
I am using the ROM from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=403214
Try the steps I listed above. Also, if you tap a second time in the text box, the keyboard will close, but pop back up if you go to another box.
The problem is that if I open PIE and got to google the onscreen keyboard will pop up without doing anything and I want to get rid of this "feature".
I can't seem to be able to find a satisfactory solution for setting the screen orientation.
Personally I don't really like to use the g-sensor for screen orientation. It doesn't seem sensitive enough and there is that delay before it rotates. Also, when holding the Diamond in my lap or resting on a table, it lies too flat for the sensor to rotate the screen. Actually, even when I hold the diamond straight up and tilt it, Opera doesn't always rotate. Sometimes shaking it a bit does the trick, but not always. Maybe I have a bad g-sensor, but I'd still prefer other solutions.
I think what would suit me best is to have a hardware button to toggle between portrait and landscape. I have tried mapping the call button using tweak 21, but it's not working with all apps, at least not with Opera (build 1938).
I'm curious about bepes Gnes, where you can pre-define screen orientation for different apps. However, AFAIK, Gnes only comes with bepes ROM and there's no CAB. Gnes could work well for me, as I always use apps where I input text (SMS, e-mail, Notes) in landscape to be able to use the wider full qwerty keyboard. Opera is trickier, as I would like to be able to change orientation there.
Are there any other options?
How have you solved this?
First, enable landscape mode using the registry tweak.
Then map the long press call button to landscape as a manual toggle button.
Works well for me.

Problem is, when I use this in Opera, I get to thrown out to the browser tab in TF3D.

Do you mean that this works well for you, even in Opera?
If so, what ROM and what Opera build are you using?
Any input on this would be appreciated.
Hi all - I promise you this isn't a repost. (At least I don't think it is.) For the life of me, I can't figure this one out.
I remapped my PTT button just fine, and for a while it rotated the screen clockwise. Why does it matter?
I have an HTC phone mount, and the AT&T Telenav service, that I frequently use on my dashboard. But now, for some reason, the phone only wants to rotate counter clockwise when I hit the PTT button. (Like it does when you slide out the keyboard.) I, for the life of me, can't figure out why it's behaving like this. I don't know what changed recently that forced it the other way. But short of formatting, (Which I'd really rather not do), I can't figure it out.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

i should look inot what you did for the screen rotation..whenever i am in opera with the screen landscape and i touch the top windows tool bar my screen gets turned 180' so now the keboard is out and my screen is upside down
but ONLY in opera this hapens, then i have to go to screen settins and rotate
Fear not....that is actually a known issue with Opera Mobile. (9.5 Beta, right?)

Landscape mode does not take keyboard position into consideration

I am having a problem where almost everytime I slide out the physical keyboard on the HTC Touch Pro, the screen goes to the landscape version of the TouchFlo screen. Is there a way to disable this for anytime except when TouchFlo already has the focus on the phone?
My main issue is that I may be changing something either in settings or somewhere else that requires a text input and I decide to open the keypad to enter the text instead of using the on-screen keypad and then touchFlo comes up and moves my application out of site and I need to start all over. As with some applications they don't show up under the drop down task manager so I need to restart from the beginning.
Thanks!
Anthony
umm... try the Touch Pro section?
