how can i simulate keyboard sliding out (without actually opening it) to obtain the landscape state with all programs so that i can switch from portrait view (4all) to landscape (4all) apart from the G sensor.
I have tried all rotation programs ( Gyrator2, changescreen, G-config, G list) and i'm really disappointed they have issues with the phone dialer and with switching to certain programs they return to portrait view even if this program is enabled for rotation by above software.
If i can do what i mentioned above it will be great hack that will resolve many problems
where r the developers
Don´t need a developer for that, a simple search might have yielded the results you are looking for....
Get a registry editor, then change HKLM>System>GDI>Rotation>HideOreintaionUI from 1 to 0. Now you can assign the left hardware key long press action (under Settings>Buttons) to rotate your screen.

even that doesn't prevent the phone from switching to portrait view specially with the phone dialler
As far as I know, Gyrator2 is currently the best option out there. It doesnt work perfectly in the TF3D interface tabs, but everywhere else, it works pretty well.
Hopefully a better solution will come out soon, cause I agree, this thing should work like an iphone in switching between portrait/landscape modes.
honestly, im using g config and g list and dont have any problems out of it...the only thing i dont like about it is that when im making a phone call itll switch to landscape mode when i put it to my ear bc i never hold the phone str8 up and down...how do i disable it from switching from portrait to landscape while n the dialer screens....other than that, no problems this way...please explain ur problem more in depth and hopefully i can help
hopefully someone can help me with my question tho about how to disable g config and g list from swtiching while the phone dialer screens are opened (during a call mainly)...thanks n adavance
by using registry editor delete "Dialog" string from
HKCU-->Software-->HTC-->HTCSENSOR-->GSensor-->WhiteList
the problem that the "dailog" string is responsible for rotation of other programs than the phone dialer for example u will discover that the favorite page of Opera browser will rotate no more after deleting this string.(and many other things that share this string)
there is another idea but i don't know how to do it through the registry?
By changing the horizontal rotation angle threshold to a minimal angle so you have to put your phone nearly horizontal to obtain landscape view.

this would be a great idea and if someone could figure that out and make a cab that would be great...a cab that makes it to where u have to have the phone "horizontal" (or nearly that so theres not as noticable of a lag) would be great because thats the only time i need the landscape is when im holding it horizontally...can someone PLEASE help????
Where are the EXPERTS
Gyrator2 can be configured to not switch while making a phone call. My problem is that I couldn't figure out how to get it not to switch in the lock screen. I'm sure that with enough help from the Gyrator experts I could have completely configured Gyrator to work the way I wanted it. Even if Gyrator had worked the way that I wanted it to, there were still issues with returning to portrait view even if I had the phone in landscape. But I believe that this is a known issue with Gyrator and touchflo 3D. But since I have the Tilt2, the easiest solution for me was mapping the PTT button to rotate my screen. At this point in time I don't think there is a perfect bug free solution and there might not be until HTC decides to implement that functionality.

very easy : run Gyrator menu-->events-->add new event-->choose Orientation-->Edit Event-->(name it as u want)choose Application-->choose >Learn Widow Class-->click on task bar (Modify Event) to get out from Gyrator(but the program still running)-->lock ur screen-->withdraw ur stylus then reinsert it-->the Gyrator come back with ConfettiLockScreen in the application name (u can simply add it as new application for gyrator without doing previous steps.
Don't forget to make Orientation--> Portrait (only)
& Actions-->Rotate screen.
don't forget to promote it to become above rotate line.

WHERE ARE THE GENIUSES
I'm a noob, here, and have just been exploring my new GN for several days.
Does anyone know how to stretch the browser to full screen in landscape mode?
It currently does not over-write the soft menu space as does the video playback.
I also note that the landscape keyboard appears limited to the same restriction.
Verizon support says it's a limitatio and they've had some complaints, but I've found that source is not always as accurate as the best forums esp for new releases.
Does this bother any of you as much as it does me?
Are there any other browsers that do use the full width?
(I've tried Dophin but can't finds a 'cure' there, either.
There is a browser setting for full screen under labs in the settings menu. And you're supposed to see the soft keys with the keyboard active.

Thanks - I had found and set that flag. It expands the browser real estate to cover the the phone status line at the top of the landscape browser space.
But the 3 soft keys for top level phone operation aren't removed.
That extra 1/4 inch of horizontal space would give minor but noticeable improved view space for web page reading, just as that expansion during video playback provides an impactful improvement.
I'd also welcome that for the landscape keyboard, since it would give my fat fingers some more room to type accurately.
Is it worth registering requests for possible changes here with Android development support, or am I missing something about why these limitations are positive in either case?
I have the Samsung Flip cover on my Note II.
Most apps can be used in landscape mode in both orientations but some use just the "default" landscape orientation. Unfortunately, this is the one with the flip cover in user's direction. When the phone is on the table it is slanted downward away from the user and also prevents me from setting the note standing as an "A".
Is it possible to tell the phone to use the "reverse landscape" orientation as the main one?
Also, can I get the stock launcher to display in landscape mode? I've seen there are some utilities for this but none seem to work perfectly. I've read that the next Android version should make this possible..?
(btw, I must say I really dislike the side buttons that are sticking out too much compared to my good ol' Dell Streak - makes it easy to press them unintentionally)
(not rooted)
The Note 2's display is large and hi-res enough to do certain tablet-like functions.
However, when I want to make a post on Internet forums (such as Google Groups) using the web browser, when I'm in Landscape mode, instead of displaying what I'm typing in keyboard landscape full screen mode, I see a small (useless) part of the webpage in the background.
I'm hoping there's an app or setting to force full screen mode no matter what software keyboard I'm using. Currently, I'm using Thumbs Keyboard (which only offers the opposite setting... force full screen off).

Hi guys,
is there a good and small keyboard I can use in Panorama (horizontal) Mode that still shows me some of the app I am using it for ? Lets for example use the most cliche example. Whatsapp. When I type in WhatsApp in horizontal Mode, the keyboard and the field where I can read what text I am posting, takes all the space on my display. Is there a way to have the keyboard in a more tight version in horizontal mode so I can even see what message just came in while I was typing on my own ?
Thank you.
