Best input soft - EzInput
Screen rotation software - Windows Mobile Settings -> |System| -> Screen -> Landscape or tap screen rotation icon on HTC Home Launcher tab.

Thanks for that input. But that will permanently change the screen to landscape mode. I want it only on need basis. That is why I posted.

Besides In my phone i have two keypads. One is touch keypad and another touch keyboard.

The problem is most of the times when not reqd "touch keyboard" which is qwerty shows up.

When i want to type a message or a document then only "touch keypad" shows up.

This is highly irritating. Can somebody help me how to get around this. I want to use the qwerty keyboard for typing messages and working with doc.

I have been reading in the website that it is possible to have the qwerty keyboard working with messaging or while typing email

Can some body please tell me how to enable/disable the 20 key keypad and enable the touch keyboard when reqd.

Please please post a reply

I tried the work around of setting the registry key. but now i am having other problems when i press the green button the call keypad does not come. I also cannot press the button 1 to rotate the screen.

Now I have changed the registry key back now. Now I am back to square 1. The two key touch keypad appears for messaging or email. But i cant get the qwerty keypad.

Can some one point me to the fix for the same please. so that i can use the touch keyboard for messaging.

Many thanks in advance

Man, try EzInput. It looks better, works better and touch keypad doesn't switch to qwerty in some apps - you can choose which do you want! Touch keypad OR qwerty. I'm using it 'cause this switching freaked me a lot and now it's OK with EzInput
