Hi, anybody know how to rectify this issue: When you have a message notification (in this case Whatsapp) and you pull down from the top to reply in-notification itself, the keyboard is taking up the whole space and I can't hit the send button and also see what I'm typing. I have to swipe down the keyboard to minize it, then the send button is visible. I tried to reduce the keyboard size (swiftkey) to the smallest and still useless. I'm using Nova launcher if that helps. Thanks in advace.
Anybody?
not really a fix, but use protrait mode instead of landscape.... for some reason landscape does this every time..
When i quick reply, it never goes in whatsapp

Sometimes when I'm playing games in landscape mode and a message comes in, I would prefer the slide down the notification and reply from within right then and there and continue my games. If I would to reply in portrait, I had to quit my game first. What a bummer, oh well....
well thats why i activate "uninterrupted gaming" if or when playing a game XD ... pretty sure its the emui launcher, but havent tested with others

I do alot of texting and if I could lock the screen in the landscape mode... that would be great... I know how to change the screen from portrait to landscape... problem is.. everytime I open or close the keyboard... it re-orients the screen.
The tilt has this function and it speeds up the texting process because the mogul doesnt have to re-orient the screen first.
My email is [email protected]
THanks for all your help in advance.

I did a quick google search for 'keep mogul in landscape'. The third hit was this. I think the app they are referring to will solve your problem. Drag it to the startup folder. I haven't tried the program myself cause I prefer portrait.
I made this program in answer to a request in the HD2 General forum, but thought I should post it here.
It's a small app that toggles the display orientation back and forth to the rotation of your choice, without the need for the g-sensor.
The default installation includes the settings screen (available from your start menu), and the application itself, which is available via a long-hold of the call button. When the application is first installed, it defaults to standard landscape (the left of the phone being the bottom), but this can be changed via the settings screen.
BIG THANKS!! to vonski and Eldorado9 for their patience and testing. Thanks guys
Have fun
Note:
Manila doesn't like being forced into landscape, so you can't use this app for that - sorry. It works upside-down, just not sideways. (I've got a HD2 with Sense/Manila 2.5)
Also, I've only tested this on a WVGA device and would like to know how it works on other resolution devices, so please feel free to private message me with any feedback regarding this.
Change details (26/01/2010)
Removed the long_send link that was originally being installed in the Windows folder.
For some reason, when you press the call button to answer a call, it executes the long_send link, despite only being a quick send.
This only happens when there's an incoming call. I've removed this link from the installer, but you still execute the toggle with a long-hold of the call button.
NOTE: The installer will remove the long_send link from your windows folder.
Change details (13/01/2010)
Added the settings screen so there's now only 1 installer, instead of 3.
If you do have the previous version, you can simply delete it from the windows folder, or just leave it and install this one.
It will override the existing version's functionality, despite being able to install it on your storage card now.
Great Job!
John,
Great job and thanks for this. First thing that comes to mind is why did you not combine these into one programme so one can have the option to go left, right or upside down without having to install 3 separate apps?
If its not difficult to do and you can spare the time to do it then I would be very interested in a single combined app that I could run off my quicklinks.

Thanks again.

It actually is 1 program, but the shortcut (long_send) is different in each zip file, and that tells the app which direction to rotate the display.
This started because someone asked for an app that would put their display in landscape and then back again, with a long-hold on the call button. After I'd done that for them, someone else asked for the opposite direction. Whilst doing that I remember that someone had once asked how to change the display to upside-down, so I did that at the same time.
The main idea here is that you pick a default rotation, and then you only have a button press to toggle it on and off. Anything more than that would require a UI and therefore more interaction, and since I'm trying to keep interaction to a minimum, that sort of goes against the principle of it.
I'll have a think about it though, but I think what you're suggesting is a completely different application. I'm not against doing that, but it won't be part of the development of this.
Thanks for the suggestion mate
Ah ok, I see. Also understand the "minimalist" philosophy behind the development.
The way I would use a programme like this would be to have it as a quicklink on my front screen (I tend not to link things to hardware buttons) which would then give me the options of (L)eft, (R)ight or (U)pside Down. If that requires a UI (I guess it does) then don't go to all that trouble.
The problem with me is I don't always rotate my device the same way all the time (I'm weird like that) although upside down is a new one on me (I remember Tubgirl, I think, asking for that).
Cheers anyway.
WB
Very nice....it's much more convenient than using BSBTweaks and shaking it... Thanks!
Just a quick question:
I use the Standard Windows Hardware Button Assignment and mapped my internet browser button with "rotate Screen"...
now here for the question: Is it possible to write that app for other buttons too? 'cause i'd love to have multifunction on my browser button and your app is almost perfect for it^^ short press = Opera, long hold = rotate... that would be SO AWESOME!!!!
btw: your app is great as it is now.... it's just a question^^

Thanks for the comment
I think to do what you've suggested, you'd need something like AEButtons. I've never used it myself, but I believe you can assign different actions for long and short button presses to hardware buttons.
Hope this helps
Thanks thanks thank you very much
another key assignement
is it possible to assignt the exe not to long send button but to windows start button (u know that one in the middle in htc leo-next to home button)
tnx in advance.

You'll need to look at other software for that. Try AEButtons. It's not something I use myself, but I believe it will do what you want.
tnx for the fast replay...actually i started to use that toggle and it works fine with long press key.
eve bsb tweek cant rotate application screen on LEO but that toggle does it.
tnx

Version 2 will be coming soon, with a settings screen where you can select an orientation, rather than having 3 different downloads.
Thank you vry much.

I never liked it the way it was, so I've done some work to give you a UI so you can select a rotation style for the application.
Hope this is better for you

Heh - They're far from honed! If it were a windows (PC) app I was building, I'd have no problems. I'm pretty nifty around windows on a PC, but mobile dev is pretty new to me, so I'm just picking it up as I go along. It's always good to find someone asking for something that makes me think "I could do that!"
Cheers for the comments mate - hope you like the new version
Just perfect on my Touch Diamond!!!! Thanks

Ok Getting tired of this.. I Hate HTC keyboard, but I love Gingerbreads.. However I hate the Fact that when I text someone or type its looks like this :
hello.this.is.a.test to. see what.happens
The Perioid is in the way or the spacebar needs to be bigger I cant decide? Anyone else have this issue?
I Tried using swype but I dont have the Patients for it. Its a great concept just not for me? Any Solutions out there?
Is there anyway to get the OG Droids soft keyboard layout on the Tbolt?
I don't know what's wrong with your keyboard but I'm typing this on gingerbread keyboard and its working fine. I don't have any issues with it. I have also used Swype but for some reason, lately it doesn't seem to figure out what I'm trying to swype so I switched to this keyboard and have been quite happy.

Download the gingerbread keyboard from the market. That's what I finally had to do. I had the same issues. Just the way I use the keyboard i guess.

I'm the same way. The only respite I've found is from using other keyboards from the market. Just look around and try some different ones, and find out which works best for you.
I found that if I make the settings key always hide and move the mic key to the symbols page it makes the spacebar a bit longer and easier to hit w/o touching the period. might be worth a shot for you guys.

Care to share? I'm not seeing it.
Settings > language & keyboard > gb keyboard > voice input
You also might want to try out swiftkey, as I haven't had any issues with it. It is leaps and bounds better than the stock keyboard.
is there a way to change the "done" button to "send" like in the regular froyo keyboard? annoying to have to press the "done" button and select "send" in the next screen.
UPDATE: Noticed this only happens in landscape mode. Regular view shows "send" key and "attachment key". what gives? is this a flaw in the app?

Nothing beats Swiftkey. Most ingenious keyboard around and works as well as advertised. I just don't like that sometimes it lags as it pulls predictions from my history. Maybe because I have so many SMS?
The trick with the mic and settings key (set to always hide) worked! Thanks. I like the GB keyboard for a change of pace.

This. And I hid the voice and settings buttons to make the spacebar bigger. But I am using swiftkey, its better in my opinion. The prediction engine is excellent and saves me from typing at all.
Whats up everyone ok here is my problem.
When I click in a text box, the onscreen keyboard pops up even when I have the dock attached. Is there a fix for this?
Previous versions of Cyanogenmod had the swipe option (NOT on the lockscreen) to open programs. For example, I could swipe up to open the browser or swipe down to open Facebook. Does this option exist or has it been omitted in CM9?
I use my Prime for work and do allot of typing so this got very annoying very fast I have to constantly be taking down the on screen keyboard.
The last thing I noticed the screen doesnt orient to the portait mode.
I have posted in the Cyanogen Mod Forum two weeks ago and have yet to get a reply so I figured I would post here to try and get some answers. I really dont understand why none of the mods or anyone else have not posted any replys what so ever the forum look like its dead.

Thanks that finally worked but one thing I dont like about the app it has a warning when you turn it on saying that it will collect all data entered in the keyboard.
I also posted on here to see if anyone had any idea of any updates from CM9 to fix this and also wanted to know about the swipe which CM usually was putting into their roms thanks.
Stop the keyboard opening itself when you open an app containing text fields
Download at the repo
enjoy!
Awesome thanks, that keyboard popup tends to annoy the crap out of me. I'll check this out.
Now I just wish I could find a mod which disables the unbelievably annoying and useless "continue searching for network" popup dialog which shows up every 30sec when I lose signal (riding the tunnel transit etc) on my S4. If anyone knows how to disable that let me know!
Nice module ! was looking for this for a long time
The keyboard however doesn't disappear automatically anymore when returning to home screen by pressing home button or when long pressing home key for recent apps. Could you fix this please?
Edit: found out that the keyboard just doesn't disappear automatically anymore whatsoever
Thank you.
It's not working well, first time after device restart when I run app with text field it was OK, but second time keyboard displays and stay also after returning to home screen, as Benny wrote.

Hi there!
Does this module stops the keyboard being shown again when returning to the Hangouts contacts list?
I simply hate this. A lot of times when returning to the contacts list the keyboard (SwiftKey here) simply shows up even without any text field over there!
Yeah, the keyboard doesn't show up but it also doesn't disappear, @hamzahrmalik
When the keyboard is up and I press the home button the keyboard keeps showing and I have to press back to hide it
But awesome module and it's exactly what I was waiting for

Works pretty well. I would like to see the keyboard not auto pop up in google now, and in the play store. Those are the only 2 things I've found it still pops up in. I never realized how annoying the auto pop up of the keyboard was until I saw there was a way to disable it :silly:

Just noticed that. It used to, was the main reason I grabbed it. Keyboard popping up when you just want to read comments is annoying, and then you have to hit back twice.
For some reason my keyboard doesn't auto close anymore when I leave the app that had an active text field in it. I have to close the keyboard manually. Ps I'm using SwiftKey
Yes. I think this need to be update.
It not auto shown. But once I really in chat and enter. The keyboard still there and I need to press back again to close it.
If not I cannot see the buttom of the screen.

Hey, this is a nice module indeed!
But I was actually looking for the opposite. LOL
Could you develop a module to ensure that the keyboard always auto pops-up whenever a text field is available on the screen?
Thanks
Doesn't work with Textra
In Textra, I turn off the quick reply pop-ups because I want to see the entire thread, but then the keyboard pops up blocking most of it.
I do like this module, but I wish it would work with Textra as well.

Same problem for me JB 4.2.2
Doesn't work for me on Instagram. So irritating that when I click on someone's profile, then press back, the keyboard automatically pops up and shoots me straight back to the bottom of the comments, and I have to scroll aaaaaaaaall the way back up to get to where I was. Maybe not a problem for some people, but when I do art features every week and get 200 comments, it's a great hassle. I was hoping this module would eliminate the fact that I have to use 2 androids during features, but doesn't seem to work at all. Huawei Ascend Mate 2, 4.3 stock rom
