Landscape Keyboard in Internet Explorer - Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking

Is there any hack to make the visual keyboard appear when Internet Explorer is in landscape?
I know that when IE is in landscape and the LG Quantum's physical keyboard is pop-out, the address bar appears.

No, you can't.

SIP virtual keyboard woes

I have a Sprint TP2 stock ROM WM6.1...
This problem started, or rather, was discovered when I tried to disable TF3D SMS in favor of Microsoft threaded SMS.
I saw on this PPC geeks thread, a Manila file which, when put in /Windows, would allow me to tap a new SMS and open Microsoft SMS instead of TF3D.
After doing this and soft-resetting, I discovered that my pop-up keyboard was messed up. (ScreenShotA). I was able to get a full keyboard to pop up by tapping the invisible ^ next to the center keyboard soft key (ScreenShotB), however the keys were very small. I opened it up in landscape (ScreenShotC) but the keyboard was the same size with deadspace on either side. I deleted the recently added 47dd6acd_manila file from /windows and reset, but still have this keyboard. I want to get the original keyboard layout back (ScreenShotD).
How do I do it?
Please Help! Thanks!
lol
my guess is you just incidentally disabled the htc kb. i believe that i the standard wm keyboard, look in your settings
I found a solution on PPCGeeks:
set HKLM\SOFTWARE\Tegic\eT9\Ime\CurrentET9Style to 0.

[REQ] use g sensor to enable landscape in HTC Messaging

I use htc messaging for sms and i would to rotate automaticly in landscape with the g sensor.
the problem is if I use app to autorotate with g sensor (flip it, changescreen, gyrator....), it rotate also the home screen and all the manila because it has the same windows name (Manila).
so is there a solution to rotate only the htc messaging, renaming its windows for example or other solutions?
it would be very useful for me because i like to have the landscape keyboard when writing sms.
thanks
If you go to your Message-Tab and select New Message, the process will have another name. if you add this to changescreen it will allow you to write textmessages in landscape.
but if you choose reply it will be the manila one which will not be rotatet. so everytime you write a message you have to choose it as new message. thats the way i did it. runs like a charm now on my touch hd with htc messaging. still annoying that it wouldnt rotate when you choose reply, but at least i can write in landscape.
i solved it with changescreen. it will show you the appname while you are about to write a new message.
hope it works for you to.
ok thanks, but it's really annoying because i like to see the sms in wich I reply, I want use the threaded mode that allow the htc messaging app.
anyone for another solution?
unfortunately, there's no solution for that at this point.
GSen
i use the application GSen
put this app in your startmenu
everytime you get a sms or mail
click first on gsen at the starmenu
then on you message
now you phone will switch in landscape mode if you want
The only way I have found to type messages in landscape while not affecting manilla ( the dialler rotating is very annoying) is to do a manual rotation when in messaging mode by long pressing the dial button.
To enable this go to Settings ... Personal ... Buttons ... Button 1 , then assign Rotate Screen from drop down list at bottom.
Then when you are replying to text just press and hold dial button and it will go into landscape and keyboard works ok this way , when done just long press to exit landscape.

Assign different SIP in portrait and landscape mode

Is there anyway to assign different SIPs for portrait and landscape (keyboard out) mode?
I searched and found (a) it's part of the touch lock pro program or (2) PQZ for Universal only. I couldn't find a generic program that would do that.
I prefer to use TouchPal in portrait but the original qwerty in landscape.
Thanks!
I tried the NuewSlidingKB but the default qwerty and touchpal don't show up the drop down list. Any other ideas?
+1 for this question! (Don't want SIP when in landscape, but want one in portrait)

Rotate HTC Messaging Client without slidding open keyboard

What is the easiest way for my kids to be able to use the SMS app without openning the keyboard, and by using the onscreen keyboard in landscape, like an iphone, kinda.
We are all on the NRG roms, 21xxx with HTC Messaging Client installed.
I added the "all messages" page into g-config but it does not rotate in any of the SMS chats. My guess is that i have to add every SMS page to g-config?
There has to be an easier way to get any SMS/MMS to open in landscape just by rotating the phone?
I use BSB Tweaks. It allows you to rotate any program and it is very easy to use. You select the rotation feature in BSB, go to the program , then shake the phone. Just search for it here, it's a free app.
or use rhodium keyboard control and assign screen rotation to any key.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yea exactly, that's what I did. Probably the Push to Talk button, that's the one I use for it. The shake feature does seem kind of cool to rotate it. But at the same time, let's say you're in public and people see you randomly shake your phone... might look a little odd

[Q] PC layout Keyboard suggestion

I have a problem finding a perfect (for me) keyboard.
I want a PC layout and shortcuts and permanent suggestions.
Google Keyboard is great, it has a PC layout and I can create shortcuts BUT suggestions (and hence shortcuts) aren't always available in every app, for instance logging in on a web site I have to type my e-mail address even though I have a shortcut for that.
Hacker's Keyboard is tremendous and I love it but doesn't appear to have shortcuts.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
