[REQ] use g sensor to enable landscape in HTC Messaging

I use htc messaging for sms and i would to rotate automaticly in landscape with the g sensor.
the problem is if I use app to autorotate with g sensor (flip it, changescreen, gyrator....), it rotate also the home screen and all the manila because it has the same windows name (Manila).
so is there a solution to rotate only the htc messaging, renaming its windows for example or other solutions?
it would be very useful for me because i like to have the landscape keyboard when writing sms.
thanks

If you go to your Message-Tab and select New Message, the process will have another name. if you add this to changescreen it will allow you to write textmessages in landscape.
but if you choose reply it will be the manila one which will not be rotatet. so everytime you write a message you have to choose it as new message. thats the way i did it. runs like a charm now on my touch hd with htc messaging. still annoying that it wouldnt rotate when you choose reply, but at least i can write in landscape.
i solved it with changescreen. it will show you the appname while you are about to write a new message.
hope it works for you to.

ok thanks, but it's really annoying because i like to see the sms in wich I reply, I want use the threaded mode that allow the htc messaging app.
anyone for another solution?

unfortunately, there's no solution for that at this point.

GSen
i use the application GSen
put this app in your startmenu
everytime you get a sms or mail
click first on gsen at the starmenu
then on you message
now you phone will switch in landscape mode if you want

The only way I have found to type messages in landscape while not affecting manilla ( the dialler rotating is very annoying) is to do a manual rotation when in messaging mode by long pressing the dial button.
To enable this go to Settings ... Personal ... Buttons ... Button 1 , then assign Rotate Screen from drop down list at bottom.
Then when you are replying to text just press and hold dial button and it will go into landscape and keyboard works ok this way , when done just long press to exit landscape.

Assign different SIP in portrait and landscape mode

Is there anyway to assign different SIPs for portrait and landscape (keyboard out) mode?
I searched and found (a) it's part of the touch lock pro program or (2) PQZ for Universal only. I couldn't find a generic program that would do that.
I prefer to use TouchPal in portrait but the original qwerty in landscape.
Thanks!

I tried the NuewSlidingKB but the default qwerty and touchpal don't show up the drop down list. Any other ideas?

+1 for this question! (Don't want SIP when in landscape, but want one in portrait)

Rotate HTC Messaging Client without slidding open keyboard

What is the easiest way for my kids to be able to use the SMS app without openning the keyboard, and by using the onscreen keyboard in landscape, like an iphone, kinda.
We are all on the NRG roms, 21xxx with HTC Messaging Client installed.
I added the "all messages" page into g-config but it does not rotate in any of the SMS chats. My guess is that i have to add every SMS page to g-config?
There has to be an easier way to get any SMS/MMS to open in landscape just by rotating the phone?

I use BSB Tweaks. It allows you to rotate any program and it is very easy to use. You select the rotation feature in BSB, go to the program , then shake the phone. Just search for it here, it's a free app.

or use rhodium keyboard control and assign screen rotation to any key.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yea exactly, that's what I did. Probably the Push to Talk button, that's the one I use for it. The shake feature does seem kind of cool to rotate it. But at the same time, let's say you're in public and people see you randomly shake your phone... might look a little odd

Is it possible to auto correct wherever entering text?

I've noticed that for example if i'm writing in a forum, it won't auto correct like it does if i'm writing an sms or email... Is there any way to change this?
Thanks
Jon

Good point i wouldn't mind that too.

Looking for an answer to this one too!

Me too. Can any android experts shed light on why the auto-correct one is only used in some apps?

use the android keyboard instead of Htc one that should work just used it to write this.

If you use the compact qwerty in portrait mode you can toggle XT9 correction on and off in all text fields.
No XT9 else where in full qwerty or landscape mode though.

landscape in manila text only

Is there any way to make manila landscape only when you are texting someone? Is there a way to find the specific thread of the application which is opened to assign to BSB tweaks for rotation or something?
