If I hook up my bluetooth game controller to my iphone in Icade mode to play some emulators it works brilliantly. (http://dx.com/p/ipega-pg-9017-wirel...-ipad-iphone-smartphone-android-ios-pc-172963)

While playing if I get a text/whatsapp come through however, or I need to switch to the web browser for anything - the keyboard is disabled. The only way to re-enable the on-screen keyboard is to turn the bluetooth game controller off - use the keyboard, then turn it back on and re-connect to it in the settings. This is pretty cumbersome just to reply to a quick text message etc while gaming. Is there a tweak or anything to keep the on-screen keyboard enabled when hooked up to game control via bluetooth. Have had a quick google search as well as a look in Cydia but the only thing I could find is a tweak called "KeysPlease" which does EXACTLY what I'm after but it says "IPAD ONLY" and also doesn't appear to be compatible with iOS6.

Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks :)
