I was wondering if there was any way of changing the default orientation of the screen when the phone is in a certain position.
I would like it so when the phone is folded with the screen pointing out for it to be in landscape left handed, This is the position the phone needs to be in when i put it into my car mount, any help would be brill, thx
Use SBSH PhoneWeaver. You can set a profile specific for in the car. It includes a possibility of setting the orientation.

so i got me a nice blackberry belt clip case with magnet clips for my touch pro 2, but now i notice this new "feature" or annoyance... that i didnt know the tilt 2 could do.
when being put into the case the screen turns ON. seems like there is something on the bottom half of the phone that detects the magnetic clips and reacts to them.
i guess this could be good for when i take the phone out. but it is getting a bit annoying.
any way i can turn this off? it interferes with S2U2 app which sometimes goes into landscape mode or wont let me slide to unlock until i press the power button to sleep, then wake up, then press sound, then phone, then power and omg its annoying sometimes cus of s2u2 not working for some reason.
it runs energyrom sept.8th
help?
There phone is designed to power on the screen when the keyboard is slid open. And the way it senses if the keyboard slides open, is with a magnetic sensor. So the magnet on your case is interferring with this sensor.
You can turn off the "slide to wakeup" with the registry edit:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD
Add DWORD: SlideWakeup
Value = 0
it worked
thank you! that reg setting worked.
funny how everything is fixed with a reg setting lol

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Actually, I think the keyboard wakeup is mechanically triggered. I believe it is the stylus removal/insertion that uses the magnetic trigger for wakeup. A simple way to defeat it without losing the function is to just put the phone into the case with the screen facing away from the closure.
I applied that registry edit to my T-Mobile Touch Pro 2 a few months ago. Removing the stylus still wakes the screen up, but sliding the keyboard does not, and removing the phone from its magnetic-clasp case doesn't wake it up either.
Ok I turned off auto rotation. its VERY annoying when I am lying in bed browsing and the stinking think keeps rotating the screen.
problem is now "I CAN'T" rotate when I need to.
core problem is pictures. it keeps rotating my pictures.
so its displaying pictures 90' off axis. the only pictures it does not rotate are ones I shoot in portrait. those the picture axis remains inline with the screen axis.
but if I shoot a landscape picture (phone on its side) it DISPLAYS it rotated in PORTRAIT orientation (ie using 1/3 the screen) instead of LEAVING IT the same axis as the screen not the phone.
since I don't have auto rotation turned on .... I can't "rotate" the picture by tilting the phone again.
is there a way to STOP the camera auto rotating or adding rotation info to exif ie anyway to force ALL pics to rotate to the same axis as the screen (long side to long side)
OR is there a way for me to FINE TUNE auto rotation so its not so stinking sensitive? IE make it so I have to tilt A LOT FURTHER before it "rotates" and then I could turn auto rotation back on ???
Install smart rotator
Turn on rotation
Go into the app and turn everything to auto rotate
Than turn off everything you don't want to rotate
This order works best...if you did the opposite you will have some issues with the camera at least thats what I found.
NOTE: This will not fix the home screen issue.
Installed the app so far working very well. thank you for the suggestion. I wish I could justchange the angle that triggers the shift.
When in the lockscreen, only portrait mode is available whether screen rotation is enabled or not. However, when the alarm goes off, the pop up rotates depending on the orientation if screen rotation is enabled. If you;re half asleep and pick up the phone at an akward angle, the screen rotates just as you tap on the screen. Half the time, it's no problem. The other half, though, I end up tapping dismiss instead of snooze. Is there a way of locking the pop up at a fixed orientation (landscape or portrait, doesn't really matter) without having to disable screen rotation?
I have an OEM Samsung landscape pogo dock and I can't quite figure this out.
If the phone is locked, when placed in the dock it switches to landscape, brings up the clock (though I don't see it, the screen is still locked, but its there if I unlock) and then turns off the screen.
If the phone is unlocked, when placed in the dock it switches to landscape, brings up the clock and then dims it to whatever appropriate level set, but it never times out and eventually turns OFF, it just stays dim the whole time.
On my Nexus One it would turn off after another definable interval, for the life of me I can't find any menu setting for this. I've tried both stock and third-party dock-clock apps.
Anyone figure out how to do this?
I have a Vufine wearable display (http://vufine-store.myshopify.com/) I wish to use with the HTC 10.
The display is designed to be used with the right eye which is not an option for me. It can be mounted in front of the left eye, but then the video is upside down.
It is easy to find apps that will rotate the screen any direction you choose. But the ones I have tried do not rotate the image on the external display. Actually, sometimes it IS correctly oriented for a fraction of a second during the transition, but then quickly rotates to "upside down" from the left eye perspective.
Is there an app that will allow me to rotate the video output coming via the USB-C port?
