it should be working in landscape mode. I think you need to play around with your G1 first and figure it out the setting

hmm....im really noob at android

Try to enable automatic rotation.

Settings- Sound and display-Orientation or something like that.

Then, go to some message field in landscape mode and you'll probably get a landscape keyboard.

hmm ok did that and it works!!


really liking the capacitive touchscreen but still got to get use to it...normally i use stylus

Yay! My G1 is fixed! (replace ribbon cable for display problem)
And now its on Froyo!

Which Froyo rom? Can go to Market to download apps?

Also where u fix the ribbon cable? I need to repair my G1 keyboard.

@BanZaiBug: Congratulations! Which Froyo ROM did u flashed? How was it? Stable? FC? Mind to share a little bit. Currently I'm using Super E and it's fast enough for me (Eclair).

gnohc: I fix my ribbon cable at home but i ordered the cable from Mobile Care Shop at Subang, through online. Since I'm in Miri and G1 parts are virtually impossible to get here. What's wrong with your keyboard?

gnohc & revolnia :
Flashed with Cyanogen 6. Thought of using Super E but saw the youtube on this one so might as well try it and go with Froyo!
So far its stable. The video showed that it was smooth but on mine there is a slight delay from the moment you wake it, after a moment, its smooth again. Market it working fine. At first it wasn't because flashed with the wrong gapps addon (have to use gapps-mdpi-tiny-20100816-signed). Now market is working but Google Maps is not, has a solution but I haven't apply it yet.

Overall quite satisfied with it. Will be keeping it for quite a while I guess... at least can tahan untill the next gen android phones are out! haha....

BanZaiBug:Some keys cannot work.

I bought a 2nd hand Tmobile G1 which is rooted with www.HiAPK.com rom.Anyone with experience how to upgrade to froyo?
I tried to flash to cyanogenmod 1.6 but when boot up, it stuck at HTC Dream screen. Hence i recover back the HiAPK rom using rom manager.
Please help!!!!! also, i hate the chinese virtual keyboard built in the rom as well. Thanks.

finally i can unlock my G1...

need to find some time to flash it d hehehe
