Ehm...30secs?!?
It tooks less than 10secs on mine!!! What language are you using?

English only... WOW! 10 seconds...

GOnna try to beat that now... rebooting...

oh wait... I think there are other language dicts in there.. anyway to disable everything except English? will that help?

LOL!
I think you know this but you don't need to reboot all the phone: simply open fastsms from the icon and then close it from there...

The reason behind a smaller input area is for ease of use in portrait mode and reduce the small area one has to select in order to exit the VKB.

damn....... still 30 seconds..

danggggggggggggggg... howcha get 10 seconds!?!?! unfair!

oh... just in case you probably forgot...

the english apostrophe words are not in the dict.

You probably have a bunch of stuff that runs/loads in the background at boot.

I have a somewhat heavy clock style for advanced clock plugin, and it takes a full minute for my status area to actually load when doing a boot up from completely off.

ALSO, I just realized something, for a week or two now, I've been getting a bug where "killall hildon-desktop" would result in some completely blank black pop up appearing and not going away after Hildon Desktop finished loading. Just now after updating to the fixed autorotation CSSU and fixed autorotation FastSMS, I got the same bug after finishing the update and doing the "killall hildon-desktop" command.

Normally, this bug means I can still enter text into the window under it. However, killing hildon desktop again would just cause the same thing to pop up again. However, after this update, I was able to randomly mess around with it, until suddenly, the mysterious black popup finished loading and turned out to be the FastSMS VKB, at which point I was able to click out of it, and no reboot was required. It made me pretty happy.

Now that I know it's this VKB related, I'll report on here if it keeps coming up.

Meanwhile, not seeing any bugs during actual use now with these last updates either.

Also, Realsportscars, I am about to post this in the CSSU thread too, but:

/etc/hildon/theme/transitions.ini is always the current theme's transitions.ini file, if it has one.

Basically, /etc/hildon/theme is always a symlink to the current theme. So if the above path transitions.ini exists, then you can use that command the hawaii posted to check if they have rotation forcing enabled. If that file doesn't exist, you then drop to checking the 'main' system one. As far as I know that covers everything - but for all I know theme customizer does something wierd with it's own transitions ini. *Shrug*

Hey,

Been a great fan of your work, since the FastSMS days. This virtual keyboard replacement is truly a godsend especially now with the added system wide portrait work done by the Community SSU.

Here is a little bug report plus a future request

When using TwimGo your keyboard doesnt seem to function properly. Sometimes it inserts the text and other times nothing happens. Not sure if its a Qt bug but hopefully its fixable, being able to tweet with one hand would be perfect

For the feature request, I was hoping you could add the option to enable "Touch Screen Vibration" (haptic feedback) when using your virtual keyboard.

The reason for this is that I hate touch screen vibration apart from certain places and the virtual keyboard is the main place I desire this feature. It makes it easier to know when you have pressed a letter ect, but I dont like how in maemo the default setting turns the vibration on EVERYWHERE

Would it be possible to enable a little vibration feedback when ur keyboard is open and then disable it when your keyboard is closed?

Thanks for the awesome apps!

It's definitely possible, FWIW.
