This is a peer-to-peer forum, you are not getting answers from or being ignored by AT&T staff here.
As for your actual issue, is it specific apps that are not allowing you to get a landscape keyboard?
The keyboard is controlled on an app by app basis, some allow for it in landscape mode, some do not.
If the app is one provided on the phone in factory condition, then it would be up to Apple to alter it, if they deem it appropriate.
If the app is a 3rd party one (i.e. something bought from the app store) then it would be up to the developer to modify their app.

Have you tried rotating the phone to horizontal? That seems to work for me, but maybe I'm not understanding the full question.

im sorry, turning the phone horizontally only sometimes will display the horizontal (wide screen) keyboard. The verticle keyboard for thumb typing is useless for me when typin. When the short keyboard is displayed, and i rotate the phone to horizontal positon then the keyboard should expand to the landscape or wide screen mode keyboard. mine wont do it sometimes. maybe it is the accelerometer sensor is not working correctly? i preferr to use the wide screen keyboard for all my typing. is there a setting for this? thanks in advance,

Seriously, nobody is being paid to come in here and answer questions. The only people here are customers, just like yourself, and they're answering questions to the best of their ability when they can.
