Hi Maurice, To change back to standard typing mode from touch-typing, once you're in any edit field, change your rotor to "Typing Mode", then flick up or down until you hear "Standard Typing". You might also want to set your rotor to something like "Characters" or "Words" before exiting, so you do not accidentally change the typing mode when you flick up and down.
Have you considered using a Bluetooth keyboard like the Apple Wireless Keyboard paired to your iPhone? Even if you don't regularly use it when you are out and about, you may find it easier to change rotor settings, etc. (Press left and right arrow keys to turn QuickNav on, then press the Up Arrow+Left Arrow keys to move to previous rotor setting, or the Up Arrow+Right Arrow keys to move to next rotor setting until you reach "Typing Mode", then press the up or down arrow keys to set to "Standard Typing". Press the Up Arrow+Left or Right arrow to move to another rotor setting before exiting.) You can also control VoiceOver through the Keyboard by navigating to next and previous controls by pressing the right or left arrow keys (in QuickNav mode), activate buttons by pressing the Up and Down arrow keys together (in QuickNav mode), move to the first and last elements on the page (Control+Up Arrow or Down Arrow), "Read All" (Control+Option+A or B -- for reading from start of page or from current location), and many other things. Hope this helps. Cheers, Esther HTH.
