Album in Landscape - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

How do I get the images inside slideshow to auto-rotate based on the orientation of the phone? I mean, when I rotate the phone, the image inside a slideshow does not rotate? I want to rotate it to landscape/portrait.
I have tried changescreen and have created exception for htcalbum. Although thumbnails of images inside a album do rotate as I move the phone, but when I start slideshow then the images will not rotate. Any way to do this?
Also I tried Dotfred's Taskmanager and applied GSensor.reg file. It also rotates most of the apps, but htcalbum still has the same problem. I could not figure out how to do this.
I will also like to know if there is a way to undo changes made by importing GSensor.reg file?
Thanks

theres been alot of talk about this. theres just no rotation support in album 3. if your looking at the album itself and not a photo, it does rotate. so the program knows its rotating and ignores the command to do it. i dont know why htc did this, it was a key feature on the original touch pro. ask for the registry edits, you can go into hkcu\software\htc\htcsensor (doing it from memory, my phone is too far away to check this) and delete what you dont want up.

Program Launcher with multiple pages

Hi folks,
I'm looking for an programm launcher like the programs tab in TF3D, but I'd like to have multiple pages, as the 24 places in the tab are way to few.
Else I want to assign it to an hardware key, so I need an application, that is not integrated in TF3D.
Does anyone know a good app for this purpose ?
I guess someone already made something like that, but google and the forum search didn't bring it up.
Sounds like a job for Wisbar Advanced Desktop, I have 8 tabs on the main screen, 20 more fading in with one finger gesture, or configure a mainscreen tab to directly open a launcher page with 20 tabs per page, where tabs can also be a Inbox, URL or shortcut to opening a program with a given file. Then switch between unlimited launcher pages with one finger gesture per page.
^^ can you please tell me what part of wishbar advance i have to activate to make my screen look like that??
Look at MortScript and Mort Buttons You can add the buttons to start menu, Today screen or to the TF3D Programs page. each button has a full page or even multi-pages you can add apps, commands or scripts to. Really handy!

Its not Wisbar Advance (Task), but Wisbar Advance Desktop

Then you need to install Sergej's free Blackberry Theme to the themes folder of WAD, and activate it as your default portrait mode theme.

that looks really nice ... but how does is look in landscape mode? does it support landscape? if yes, i'll give it a try
Dont use landscape, but the program differentiates between those two modes, so you could just re-arrange the dock and tabs to fit your landscape preferences. For me the key feature was to be able to show unlimited appointments on my main screen.
already tried yota center?
Me I use UltimateLaunch that I looove with Yota
See Screen Caps

hi Lucas,
the first image you attached is your today screen? we can set wisbar advanced dekstop as our today screen?
Yes indeed, but as a today screen where you have full control of what to put on it!

how to set the WAD as today screen? by disable the TF3D only?
last time i did try WAD, but, i didn't set it as today screen, i need to launch it as other program to get WAD work.
so, everytime you soft reset or wake up your HD, you will see WAD in your today screen?
Just disabled TF3D, started WAD installation, and WAD came up as today screen automatically. Yes, WAD is full today screen, but you can choose if you want to keep the Start and taskbar on the top of the screen, or have it disappear. Most standard Today plugins work from inside the WAD today screen, too.

thanks a lot Lucas, i will try.
Thanks for the ideas.
I'm already using Yota Center and its a nice program.
The only thing is that I'd like to have more pages, cause 24 places is too few.
I'll try Mort Buttons, looks interesting though.
have you tried launchmanager ? it's not free though ...

Thanks just one more question. When launching the Music player or Photo Viewer etc, are they the normal HTC ones or are they customized now?
Are they still easy to use?
Also does all your programs work normally? And if you don't like the WAD, you can easily delete it?

No, they will not be the HTC apps embedded in TF3D. You will set up each icon to open up your own apps. I haven't heard of anyone being able to use the HTC player or album yet as stand alone apps.
Yes they are very easy to use!
WAD will not affect the way your programs run. It is simply a launcher program (one of the best that I've seen yet).
Yes, you can easily uninstall WAD by going to remove programs and uninstalling it from there...although I have a feeling you won't want to after you get the feel for what it can do to your today screen!
Thanks that was a great explanation
just one more question for example do you mean it won't have a built mp3 player or something like that but you have to download a 3rd party one and assign it?
EDIT: I just bought it and installed the Blueberry theme but doesn't show up properly, i wonder why. I'm missing the clock, the calender and whenever i press the box on the right side, a empty grey box opens.. weird.
EDIT: Fixed it up by selecting Wishbar Desktop rather than HD BlueBerry, weird. some parts are still German even after applying eng buttons.

You can set it up to use Windows Media player if you want to, otherwise a third party app is what you will need. CorePlayer or PocketPlayer are a couple to check out.
I haven't installed the Blackberry theme for WAD yet but I do no if you don't have the icons installed in the correct places the theme will not show properly. I ran into this same problem when installing Mallmans Vista theme. As soon as I went back and followed his instructions perfectly, the theme was correctly displayed.
I'm not familiar with setting up different languages so I'm afraid I won't be of any help to you there. You may check out the Lakeridge WAD forum for that.
Here is how I have my WAD looking right now, a tweaked version of Mallmans Vista theme!

Sure, you can add registry keys manually for the exe files you want to autorotate. I think the application must support it natively though.
it supports it becuase when i slide out the keyboard it goes into landscape mode
You could try G-Config (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=487991). Worked for most applications for me and is way easier than hacking around in the registry.

Album + GSensor

Any way to enable the GSensor to work with the albums? I came from the Diamond and I liked how I could change the orientation of the picture by rotating the phone. Or was that functionality just taken out of the newer Manilla?

well, if it's the album in manilla 2.5+ it will not rotate.,. but if you open the album application directly from start menu and look at the pics in there it should auto rotate..
Google an app called Gyrator, it will allow you to select which programs you want to autorotate and you can make Albums one

Updated S2V version?

I've searched but can't seem to find if there's a newer version of the S2V photo album that will work well with the Tilt2. The old one (0.42) doesn't zoom (and the native album program doesn't seem to allow me to sort my photos by anything other than most recent). It's a great program, and I'd love to be able to continue using it. Any thoughts? Thanks.
The best way to zoom is to use the d arrows on the keyboard. You would have to open the keyboard and manually rotate the screen to zoom in portriat view. S2V also refuses to zoom in or out on some of my large pics.

Disabling auto rotate in Manila 2.5 1922??

Does anyone know of a cab or reg edit to disable the auto rotation for the photos, music, and documents tabs in the new Manila/Sense like in the Duskmore ROM?
I am having the same problem and want to disable auto-rotation in these three tabs. You can try HKCU/Software/HTC/Manila/EnableFullScreen:dword=0
This stops autorotation but when rotating the whole manila these three tabs freeze the system.
Has to be another solution since in Flashmore's Rom these tabs are disabled by default and remain stable while rotating with a third party app like ChangeScreen or gsen
