After last update it keeps opening the vkb even when the hkb is open. Very annoying. :(

Personally I think that's just fine. Yes, it's not default vkb behavior exactly, but it lets you edit what's in the VKB text box with the hkb if you really want to. You can still always click out of it, but this way if you type a massive paragraph of text, but have Home, End, Page Up, and Page Down mapped to the hardware keyboard, it can be a bit easier to quickly scroll to the right spot and change one or two characters.

*Shrug* I can see how it can annoy some people though - personally I don't mind either one, but making that a configurable-in-settings-option might be nice too.

Also, to everyone for whom your vkb OPENS when the hkb is open, that's very likely a hardware problem (it not detecting the keyboard is open/closed). Now, if it doesn't open with hkb open, but does STAY open when hkb is opened, then that's how this keyboard has always worked.

No, absolutely it doesn't interfere with opera keyboard...
About battery I didn't notice an average drain: it is possible due to accellerometer turn on when vkb is displayed, but this is correctly disable when you hide vkb.

Vkb doesn't hide when you open hw one, but like Mentalist said I prefer this way, an option to manage this could be added in future...

I'm not sure but I think that you are right about hw problem. I can suggest to people with this problem to uninstall fastsmsevo and try if this problem exists also with standard vkb: fastsmsevo is based on standard input method and I didn't changed anything about this

Everywhere except conversations: xterm, microB, many other apps.
Sometimes it even pops up while already typing on the hwkb...
I uninstalled it now. I don't really need portrait anyway.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I really dont think that this is caused by fastsmsevo, I never noticed a such strange behaviour.
If other people have the same problem please report it there...

Anyway, if you want, you can send logs file placed in /opt/fastsms/data
