when i log into this forum using opera mini icant use my 20key hardware keyboard. every keypress makes one entry instead of changing to the other letters of this key
is that normal?
I would not say normal but it is the way it is. I have this also experienced on the software keyboard! the workaround is to switch to the regular Windows software keyboard

with my german MDA Pro I experience a very annoying behavior of the software keybord (the one displayed on the screen). Whenver I focus an textfield (i.e. pocketIE adressbar, or when renaming a file in total commander etc.) that software keyboard pops up. Now as long as I am in portrait mode that MIGHT be a helpful feature. But when I am in landscape mode and I have the hardwarekeyboard available this is useless and annoying. So is there a way to surpress this? I seems that this popup does nto happen always. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't - I just was not able to find out what it depends on.
Same Prob too.
It sucks !
Someone can help ?
PHM PowerToys has an "Extended Keyboard SIP" bundled in with all its other goodies. No keyboard pops up when you select that as your default input method.
I found a "ripped" version of just the keyboard SIP without having to install all the other stuff.

Let me know if this works for you.
what does this keyboard tool actually do? does it just set some registry setting ? can I uninstall it after I have run it ? Or must this App raun ALL THE TIME to make it work ? (the latter would suck since eats ressources)
It just add another SIP into your other one
But this time, it will show nothing so you can use your keyboard freely
And no, it should not take up any resource, if any, it will be very very very little
Fear not chaps, I posted about this and just use the hard keyboard and it 'learns' not to pop up in landscape mode.
Hope it helps
it does learn, but i think it learned by selecting an alternative input as the default.
I have a mogul, and I was wondering how you type certain keys on the keyboard. Ideally, I would like to be able to type escape, ctrl- and alt- keycombos on the physical keyboard, but if that's not possible then I'd like to be able to do that using the SIP keyboard. Also I'd like a way to type F-keys using the SIP keyboard.
I tried using AEKMap, and it simply didn't work. I noticed that on the PocketPutty homepage, it shows a SIP keyboard with an alt key, and another SIP keyboard without one. I have the latter, and I would like the former.
Anyone have any ideas? I think it's ironic that I can type any international character I want, but I can't type basic things like escape and alt.
I don't think windows mobile supports those keys anyway, which is probably why we don't have the option of using them anywhere.
That's not true. Many WinMo apps display ctrl+ shortcuts and the soft-keyboard contains those keys.

You can definitely use ctrl, I use it to paste when the press and hold menu doesn't come up in some aps.
I've used it on soft keyboards, but is there a way to use ctrl from the slide out keyboard?
I asked this in the Opera Diamond thread, but alas, no responses, so I thought I would post here. I installed the Diamond version of Opera 9.5 and am having an input issue.
Is anyone else having an input problem when trying to type in a web address? On my touch, only the 123 portion of the Touch Keyboard will open. I can't change it to abc...
Otherwise I love this thing. I can change to another keyboard, but it is a pain to have to do that everytime because I use the Touch Keyboard by default for everything and I'm used to it.
Which keyboard is that? It's not the regular one, well maybe a skinned one, and maybe that's where your problem comes from. I use the ones that came on the phone & diamond full qwerty and it works fine.
It's the default Touch Keyboard. It has a skin on it, but otherwise it's the default keyboard. The skin shouldn't make any difference.

Opera did not provide the necessary feed back for the keyboard to know that it is a text field instead of a numeric field. I guess you just have to wait until they do or get another keyboard software that only do text by default. I use Resco. I think 9.5 is still in beta. in 8.x version, it works fine.
I am using a 9.5 beta but I can't remember what build. I had problems with my keyboard (it was one of the diamond ones.) I changed to letter recognizer and it worked like a charm.
or u can use pocketcm, from there u can change manually
Hi,
I like HTC Touch 2 (using for past 1 week, win 6.5)..
Only thing I miss is the default windows qwerty keyboard!!
Though it is small, i type faster than the htc's custom keyboards!
Also, htc keyboards takes nearly half screen, which is odd for particular apps where the password box is at below the halfscreen (like facebook app from windows marketplace!)
Is there any settings changes or registry key addition such that it enables the windows default keyboard Or can anyone share the CAB file?
I'm agree with you. I like to know if there is any chance of installing the default keyboard, the others sucks!
You can try WordLogic (wordlogic.com)
I have a problem with the virtual keyboard on the Mega. Sometimes, after using Opera and the virtual keyboard inside the browser, the keyboard "gets stuck" in the browser-specific keyboard configuration.
More specific, after exiting Opera and trying to write and SMS, the same keyboard is displayed. This is a problem because instead of SPACE i get "/" and ".com".
Has anyone else encountered this?
