I have a notepad program which I use more than any other. Every time I open it with the phone in portrait mode, the virtual keyboard appears. Does anyone know a tweak or fix to stop this from happening?

Hello all,
I can't see all available programs and system functions on the today screen customization window. Energy/battery and mouse mode applets are missing for example. Same goes for the harware button mapping window.
Is there a windows registry hack to add these functions to the today screen, rather than installing a third party app?
Also, is there a way to disable GPRS connection by default and make it to ask you whenever it connects? I have no flat data rate and Tomtom sometimes tries to connect to get traffic data..
Thanks..
i was wondering if there was a way to set a particular program to launch in landscape mode as opposed to the standard portrait. i think this would be handy for database files/programs that you just need to bring up and check information.
the particular program in question is KeePass. i sometimes just need to launch it and check a password for something, but in portrait mode, i cant quite fully see 3 columns and usually need to scroll sideways, but landscape would be perfect. unfortunately, i cant really just open the keyboard because the phone is usually in a holster...and i tried assigning the rotate screen function to a hardware button, but it turns it the wrong way. in either case, i was hoping to just cut out the extra step and have it launch sideways by default. any ideas?
hey guys...greetings...
I know all of you are geniuses here, so hopefully someone will be able to help me.
I'm working on a application for the TP2, an tht requires a landscape mode.
Now i am able to launch the program in landscape mode, but the problem is i am unable to catch keyboard slide events. What i mean here is the managed code rotates the screen initially,but, if a user slides the keyboard back in, the screen goes back in the potrait mode, thereby making the application throw an exception.
I tried with the reg values
HKLM->SYSTEM->GDI-> ROTATION
HKLM->SYSTEM->KEYPAD->ISSLIDEOUT
But i seem to be going nowhere. The Screen rotates to potrait, my application throws an exception, and the program quits.
Cant i do something tht the system wont detect a keypad slide?
Cos everything i'll be doing is via touch interface. i wont require a hardware keyboard.
If anyone can help, will appreciate it
NoRotate is small utility application, that will enable or disable device rotating.
Why would someone want to disable rotating?
Maybe I'm only one that wants this but im using it for 2 main reasons:
I'm mostly using device in portait mode. When i want to type something i have to slide keyboard, type and slide keyboard back. But when i slide keyboard, i have to wait for OS to rotate. Disbling roation makes typing much faster.
Lots of apps dont support rotating or even causes problems on device. For exapmle if you accidentally move keyboard while using MorphGear in RawFrameBuffer mode, device will freeze and you will have to soft reset
Camera key is not working when rotating is disabled. Use "launch camera" button in application to launch it.
Thanks, that`s very usefull for me.
Anyone here using scummVm on the tilt2 or tp2? My problem is that I cannot figure out how to get the screen orientation to work properly when the keyboard is open. What I mean is, anywhere I click, the cursor shows up at the mirror location on the device if the keyboard is not closed. It doesn't matter If I have the screen orientation lefthanded (default on this device) or flipped so it is right-side up with the keyboard open. Very frustrating.This isn't too much of a problem for point-n-click, but I would like to map keys, and opening the keyboard inverts all click points on the screen so the game becomes unplayable.
Currently the only workaround I can find is to have the keyboard open before starting scummvm (which is contrary to the tutorial). Closing it and opening it during gameplay brings back the original issue. I'd really like to find a way to open and close the keyboard without having issues. I'm hoping someone else with a tp2 has encountered this issue and knows how to deal with it!
