Hello.
I asked this already 100x,but I got no answer,so I try again.
Is there a way to disable automatic rotation when sliding the keyboard out?
I hate it.
If I need,I can do it manually(maybe 1% of the time I need landscape) and the rotation is unwanted slowdown.
Can someone modify the sensor driver or show me another way,how to achieve this please?
I'll be soooooo lucky then.
Thanks.

How do you use the keyboard if the screen is not in landscape mode ?
I doubt there's a know method, because you're maybe the only person in the word who don't want the landscape mode when using the keyboard..

Mostly I am using keyboard for ICQ for really short messages.
Few words I want to write will take 3 seconds normally,but with rotation it takes 20.
It makes me no problem to write "Hi" when notrotated screen.
If you screen rotation back and forth takes 17 seconds,
then there's something wrong with your ROM...
Anyway, I'll try to make a little app for you, but I don't know if it's going to work...

Please don't solve this. I want to solve just a simple thing - rotation disable.

I have the perfect idea.....if you don't like or use landscape and you don't want the screen to rotate......DONT SLIDE OUT THE KEYBOARD.....lol.....i'm sure you know there is an on screen keyboard to use in portrait mode when you want to text or instant message. Pretty simple.
I do find it very weird that something like that would bother you, besides the fact that the rotation can lag at times. You should have got an Iphone or something without a keyboard.
I couldn't find any way to make Windows stay in portrait mode, BUT... when you're in landscape it will stay in it! I mean, screen won't change to portrait, when keyboard will be closed. So maybe you want to stay in landscape instead? I've written tiny app to change rotation back and forth...
1. I bought TP,because I USE keyboard(One more thing that leads me to upgrade from Himalaya)
2.Thanks,that I know. Maybe the driver has hardcoded the angle to rotate(270dgs) and I want to change this angle to zero(or in a better way to disable it completely),but don't know how.
I want to use portrait instead of landscape,because is much comfortable for me for 90% of time and apps. I can easily switch to ls by pressing a button.

Is there a way to disable the screen orientation change when you slide the keyboard out on the tilt. I have a hard time using the on screen dialer and like to use the keyboard to dial however there is a good 1-2 second lag between when I slide the keyboard out and when I can start dialing. I'd like to disable the auto orientation and assign it to a button.
Thanks
I am of the same mind - that would be a great. I also prefer to use the hard dialer, and typically keep the screen in landscape so there isn't any of the delay that the change of screen orientation would cause.
I would however prefer to keep it in portrait, but as of yet I have not found a way to do that.
Has anyone discovered how this could be done?
Thanks
Steve
Sorry, my comment is: Wrong direction, you'd better solve this problem, rather than disable the keyboard screen orietation:

I CONCUR!!!
I hate how it always goes back to the landscape menu when I try to reply to a text message... SO ANNOYING!
Someone pleeeeeeeeeeease help with this!!!
the new touchflos landscape has every tab that portrait does and its much more responsive just wait for that
and if your phone kicks you out of programs when you slide it out then try another rom
Just a simple question if anyone is willing to help
How do I keep my phone on landscape all the time?
I have tried going to "settings -> align screen -> landscape" but everytime i close my keyboard goes back to portrait mode . Some say it's due to "clear type" i turned that off and still keeps going back to portrait [I do lot of texting]
So if anyone has any ideas and would like to pass on plz 'n thanks
If you rotate the screen in closed-keyboard(portrait) to landscape,it keeps all the time in LS mode all the time after(keyboard in/out doesn't matter).. You can do it using mortscript,SPB PocketPlus or in a different way.
I have got a opera mobile 9.7 beta and when you rotate screen on landscape with this software and press home button, your screen will be still on landscape
// It is some BUG of opera, but you can use it

I tried it does not work on mine lol but thanks
And also i found program called GSen ot rotates your touch pro !
If you have sk tools (probably even the free version), use the shortcut manager to create a landscape mode shortcut, then copy it into \windows\startup. You should be good to go.

In changeScreen you have the choise which orientation you want to use by default. And you can make exceptions. For example, I hate it when bubble breaker starts a new game when I tilt my phone to far, so I've set it up in a way it only uses portrait.

hehe im trying to do the exact opposite
I want tf3d to be in portrait all the time, regardless of keyboard in or out.
If i figure out how, ill let you know because it should be easy then to convert to landscape only.

Nope sorry
I had another thread going and their were a few suggestons but it didnt make any difference.
why not just use screenchanger 2.8 and set default only 2 the landscape of your choice (dont know if ur right or left handed)???
if u chose "enable" and "run on startup" wouldnt that fix everything w/o out using some stupid glich?
all the programs that i have used like gsen etc, dont override the keyboard slide. It seems to have some hardwired switch which overrides all of those programs and forces landscape, and then back to portrait when you slide it back in.
hey guys!
i was wondering if any of you guys know a trick or a setting to keep it on landscape mode the whole time.
the problem im having is that when i set it to landscape mode then use the slide out keyboard, when i slide the keyboard back to its hidden position, the screen automatically goes back to portrait mode.
thanks
AFAIK it is impossible.
start...settings...personal...buttons...Left key....assign Rotate screen
Maybe this is something you can use:

This trick works. but when I get or make a phone call by pressing the call button, it switches back to the portrait mode and does not come back after quitting that screen...Does anyone know how to keep it in landscape even while making a call? BTW, I am using 826x ROM.
Thank you.

the problem:
manila 2.5 doesn't support landscape. it supports landscape only in pictures/music and if we slide keyboard it looks ugly
the solution?
cant we disable the standard wm orientation change that messes up manila and use the sliding keyboard to emulate the original accelerometer signal instead? This wouldn't mess manila as it recognize rotation only in certain tabs as by design, like in topaz and HD
do you think that's possible with some kind of homemade driver?

anyone? It's that stupid?

No, I think it would be brilliant, but such a program does not exist. It may be possible to intercept the signals and do what you describe. I think if some resourceful programmer might like this feature they could take it up. I for one would be interested.
If I am wrong and such a thing exists and I have somehow overlooked it, please let me know.
The keyboard portrait/landscape mechanism is a switch (on/off) whereas an accelerometer is a varying signal.

Yea but idea is when keyboard slides out, it will send signal like you would turn your device to landscape.
I support that idea too, so i hope something like that comes.
hey dude I was checking some stuff last time and I just read about the experia so u might like to take a look how the xperia portrait or landscape is working
