Not sure what you are referring to ... Are you Talking about The Google search Widget ?

im referring to the text messaging and in general typing on the landscape orientation. so yes including the google search widget. I looked on youtube about a sample video of my phone and i guess this setting is standard. It looks kinda like this when im texting.

i understand that. what i mean to say is that i dont want to hit back-key to hit the send. i just want to have the same keyboard as shown in the pictures. also, i saw an "xt9" on the bottom left corner of the keyboard.

In my previous post ... I said you might not be using the default messaging app to create/reply/send your msgs with ...???

Which SMS app are you using that is giving you the problem ?

@justjimpc: I have an HTC Magic with Rogers, and I notice I have the same thing when using the _default_ SMS app that came with the phone. When i turn the phone to landscape, I lose the Send button.

I guess this is just a different version of Android based on the carriers? For example all the screenshots of the T-Mobile MyTouch (Magic) show that the Google search widget has a mic button to use speech search, which the Rogers Magic does NOT have. I'm guessing this Send button thing is a similar difference in OS releases based on carrier/region?

And to clarify, so you know what I mean by the default sms app, I have NOT installed any other sms apps. When I go to contacts, and choose to txt one of my contacts by clicking the appropriate entry, I get the default sms app.

im not using any sms app. I agree with what mjschmidt said. that is what i am thinking as well. is there anyway to fix this, or am i stuck with this default setting?

I dont know then .... it may be a rogers custom build issue ... from all the posts Rogers has to be a Real TRIAL do deal with all their mucking and techinical issues ...

Happy I am using TMO ... :)
