Changing orienation when texting


Recommended Posts

When I try and text/reply to a text sideways (as opposed to upwards) the text doesnt come out. I can press the keys but where it says compose message my text doesnt come out and I cant press send. Any ideas? I can text fine when the phone is upright but the keypad for me is quite small so would prefer to turn it sideways.

Thanks Sam

I'd reboot and check that. Sometimes when using GoSms and the SlideIT keyboard i couldn't type it just wouldn't show

tend to find a reboot fixed it for me

Thanks for replies. I have only just had it so am still using the bog standard straight from the box orange phone. I believe I am using the touchpal? keyboard.

Oddly that will make it harder to get help here as I'd think most here have long ago dumped the bog standard orange stuff. Is there another keyboard option on the stock phone, long press in the window where the text is/should be appearing and see if you can change input. I think there was another one, if so that may work better in landscape.

Really liked the t9 keypad on the touchpal keyboard in portrait though myself.

I sort of get a similar problem after typing for a while on portrait mode no text shows up. I have to change keyboards, then change back to get it working again. Maybe you could try the same after switching to landscape

You should have two keyboards then, touchpal, and the standard android one.
