BlackBerry Non-Compatibility Mode translate touch events

I am forcing my app (developed in JRE 4.5) to run in non-compatibility mode for OS versions 4.7 and higher so that the virtual keyboard would not take up half of the screen space.

Now, when I test my app in 4.7 or 5.0 simulator, I see that the touch events are not working. Is there way to handle touch events in code so that I can 开发者_如何学Gotranslate it in to trackball events when running in Non-compatibility mode?
