I would like to know if anyone here has a cab file or know where to find a cab file to keep the slider from hiding every time the Touch PRO2 is rotated into landscape mode? I know that I like the slider in both portrate as well as landscape, and there are probably more people who would like this as well.

Hi there...
Is there a way to have the s621 working on portrait mode?
I woul also look foward to now how to use fake cursor, because I simply cant make it work as a fake cursor =/
thanx
huh? what
why would you want to use portrait mode? That doesn't make sense to me especially if you have a landscape screen. PPC - now that's a different device and it has the controls for it to go landscape or portrait.
Hi !!
On all new roms, there is the mania interface rotation.
The only problem is when I take my phone from my pocket: sometimes it is in landscape mode and sometimes it in is portrait mode...
Is there anyone here able to make a software that could disable the G-Sensor when the screen is off ?
It will prevent from TF3D rotation when in the pocket
Thx !!
That's an excellent request Judebox
TF3D is long as hell to rotate, so it would be really great to prevent it to rotate in landscape when it's switched off, 'cause it's useless and boring.
For certain apps, I want to be able to use the hardware keyboard but keep the screen in portrait mode. Gyrator helps a bit, but does not do everything I want:
Example 1: Kevtris. Only works in portrait, but needs enough mappable hardware buttons to control the pieces, so keyboard needs to be out, but device is held in portait.
For this, Gyrator helps because it turns the screen back to portrait if the device is in portrait (even if the keyboard is still out)
Example 2: Morphgear. Works best in portrait mode with the game display set to be sideways (East). So keyboard is out, device is held in landscape but I want the screen to stay portrait.
Any thoughts?
I'm not sure if changescreen would work, but you can set what programs turn what way, and could add an exception to those specific programs to display only in portrait mode. It's called changeScreen - v2.5 (Mar 13 '09). HTH
NVETHIS
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've tweaked the Rhodium to auto rotate on just about everything, so it goes to landscape when I rotate the phone without having to slide out the keyboard.
problem is, it takes 5 elephants to rotate, and only 2 elephants to rotate back to portrait, I've set the G-Sensor polling rate to 50 but it made no difference at all to this. I would guess there is a control somewhere for this, either in the registry or hard coded in a file, anybody upto the task of finding out where the setting is ?
Slightly off topic, I've noticed that pictures don't rotate with the device anymore like they did in the Touch pro, this is a bit of an annoyance too because scrolling through pic's in landscape shows the images on their sides, not sure if this is a bug or by design ?

What auto-rotator are you using?
I use changescreen, and my auto-rotation is fast.
I do these reg-edits with changescreen:
Code:
HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\GSensor\PollingInterval = 50 (Dword)
HKCU\Software\idevelopstuff\changescreen\Delay = 50 (Dword)
Depending on your auto-rotator, it might have a separate polling interval from the device's. As you can see, I have to set the GSensor's polling interval and changescreen's polling interval to the same amount for it to work quickly.
I didn't have a third party application for it, just the stock driver / app, Sounds like that will be the solution though, I did use Advance config to change the poll to 50, but looking in the registry it was set at 1000.
I've installed Changescreen and set both reg values to 50, it's rotating in roughly one elephant to landscape and back to portrait, much better
thanks for the tip.
ChangeScreen Keeps Rotating back to Portrait
Hey guys:
I have ChangeScreen installed on my HTC Tilt2. Ive set the default on load to landscape as well as set up exceptions to manilla and most of my programs to landscape (as an assurance that the screen will load each app/prog chosen to landscape).
I have set the registry keys listed in this string to 50 and saved the settings.
My problem is this: I have to hold my phone upright , then lay it flat, then pick it up again in order for the rotation to take effect.
Next prob is: after the screen does go into landscape, then i go to , say messaging, all is good until i exit messaging and navigate back to the today screen. It loads back "portrait". I have to do the same steip over : pick phone up; lay it flat; then pick up again for it to go back to landscape, otherwise, it just sits and sits and sits in portrait.
Is there any other tool better than changescreen that truely 'defaults' the screen rotation to landscape where i dont have to manually keep moving the phone all the time just to get to landscape?

Have you tried not having Manila in the exceptions list? Just let it auto-rotate based on your settings in the first tab in the changescreen app.
Or could you post screenshots of your settings so I can look at them and see if there's something conflicting, etc.?
