Texting in Landscape
 
Hello is there a reg hack to have the keyboard automatically pop up when putting the phone on landscape during texting/emailing?

yea, thsi would be nice. vertical size of the diamond is quite narrow for touch texting. i must use stylus to type faster.

i'm using the long press send key or whatever it is that comes built into the juicy ROM. but yeah that would be nice.

Yeah i'm using Gyrator for texting on landscape but am tired of having to hit the button to pop up the keyboard. So does anyone have a reg hack to have the keyboard pop up automatically in landscape?

gyrator? i dont mind hitting the button. does gyrator come with juciy 2.5 or do i need to download it separately. landscape qwerty is soooo gooood.

Just download this, copy it to your Diamond and install it.

It is amazingly good. And you can setup exclusions for apps, which is nice too.

Gyrator 2 on Juicy 2.5 with PCM keyboard, PCM Diamond VGA skin, SIPchanger, in landscape = creamy.


PS... auto popup can be edited in Advance Config under input options.

What about xda's gsen app? It automatically rotates the screen in any position. The keyboard should redraw for landscape too seeing that it does so for Opera.

The GSEN app over at xda has issues with CDMA Diamonds for some reason. The Gyrator 2 app that I attached in a previous post is the newer version and works flawlessly.

Sorry Nautica, I don't use Touchpal. You know if I did I would hook you up though!

I was using Toucpal but gave it up for PCM after Gyrator was released because the landscape mode is way better.

So, anyway... to answer your question... yes, Touchpal works fine.

THANKS i'm giving pcm a try with gyrator...too early to give my impressions though... every thing has an adjustment period right? lol

How do you remove the lock device stuff...it only does it once in a while and its annoying...

Incubated 10-15-2008 03:02 AM

Re: Texting in Landscape
 
edit events, its a stylus in even that locks. remove it. i hated it too.

i tried the landscape texting. it pwns hardcore. i set it to landscape if stylus is in, and locked to normal if its out.

is it possible to autorun, or startup this gyrator thingy.

iamjasonc 10-15-2008 06:27 AM

Re: Texting in Landscape
 
ok so I downloaded PCM and gyrator, and gyrator is cool. But, PCM.....is weird. It's not drawing the keyboard correctly...the letters arent inside the squares...and the skins arent really helping. If anyone else has had this issue and can help anything would be appreciated!

Edit: N/m I'm an idiot, i just noticed the VGA skin

Is this an easy edit in Gyrator?

i think there's a setting in the new schaps config for this...

*edit*Advanced Config - under input> "Auto deploy SIP"

Ok, how exactly do i setup gyrator so that it will auto rotate to landscape mode when I want to text, I can't seem to figure it out.

EDIT: Nevermind I figured it out, I was closing gyrator after changing the settings, I now realize it has to stay running in the background. Also you don't need to change any settings for it to work, it comes by default (for those who are having trouble like me).

SOHKis 10-15-2008 12:43 PM

Re: Texting in Landscape
 
i was having some trouble myself isolating the rotation to the text window, so now i have it rotate everything which i'm actually kinda liking.

set it up to react w/all windows, 0 in the first column, 63 (for any position) in the second column, and 1 in the last column to rotate screen.

I downloaded this and it still didn't work. Has this worked for anyone else?

Re: Texting in Landscape
 
have you opened it and changed the settings after you installed it? you gotta go to the input section, and then enable the SIP to open automatically

I just installed Gyrator 2 on my Sprint Diamond Touch. I got an error message that says it requires a newer version of the Microsoft Net Compact Framework the version installed on this device. Where do I get the new version?
