Calibrating Screen on CyanogenMod 7

Hi,
I flashed my Desire with the Cyanogenmod 7 and was wondering, where I can calibrate the screen. When using the orignal rom, there was an option to do so. Now the screen does not really respond the way I like, especially when using the keyboard.
Thanks

No clue? Can't imagine there is no solution.

You mean when it asks you to type something on the keyboard? I haven't seen that in ages... maybe its only on sense roms.

if you have the htc ime_mod you can calibrate that under the keyboard options.
just hit the options key in any input field and it will take you to the options.
then, calibrate should be under text input

Am I right in thinking this calibrates the keyboard and not the screen then?

Right. I actually ment calibrating the keyboard. This might be only on sense roms. That was my first guess too

Change navigation in car panel?

Just wondering if and how you can change the navigation software that is used whilst in the car panel mode?
I have CoPilot and would much rather use it over Google...
Any thoughts anyone???

I have the same problem - on HTC one X
I want to use navigon in car panel mode instead of Google or HTC footprints !, but is this at all possible
/ Ploug

Can't you just add a shortcut for the new Nav app and move it around the 'pages' so it appears on startup page then select it?

In car panel mode it does not seem possible to change any apps, incl default navigation

[Q] Accidently dropping a call with your cheek

Hello guys
Me and friends using DHDs are having the same problem.
Sometimes hangup the calls with cheeks or ear or ....
Especially it is annoying then you in rush with something, receive important call, hold your phone between shoulder and ear and .............. after some time you accidentally press END CALL button.
It is the biggest minus having touchscreen phone.
The thing is that screen turn offs after some time of talking but it turns on again as you are moving around.
Did anyone find out how to solve this misery?
Would be grateful.
Regards

Sounds like an issue with the proximity sensor, if I hold mine wrong I tend to turn on loudspeaker with my face. It's tweaked in some of the ROM's I believe - are you running a ROM or still on Stock?

Hi, thanks for responce.
I have rooted sence 3.0 Rom by nitr0. But this problem is not dependant on my rom as before i had original virgin mobile branded rom and the problem still persists.

Definitely a proximity issue. On CM7 I also had the issue of putting calls on hold with my cheek! You can remove the hold button in the call options.

yes. my screen turns off only when i close proximity sensor totally. though it should do it in a distance.

Unfortunately indigolemon's posted app does not work on my kernel. as my radio is 12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M. and Kernel 2.6.35.10.

In cm7, this accidental hold was a b**ch before i removed it; but it took me quite some time to figure it out

Hi!
landscape mode works only in some apps. You will not get landscape mode in homescreens, unless you have a custom ROM installed and have LeeDroid Tweaks.
Greetings
Putti

But it actually happened yesterday! I had landscape homescreen with all icons positioned on right of the screen and widgets resized accordingly...
[EDIT] I am running custom ROM Android Revolution HD

Hello, i have a non-rooted phone and also got it a copple of times.
On the home screen i suddenly had a landscape screen.
Once turned back to portrait, it did not go back to landscape again.
After searching i found a forum message about an app called 'Rotate'.
this app can force autorotate, so the landscape also works on the homepage.
1 problem, you can try it some time and then you have to pay for it (only $1.99)

If your using apex launcher you can go into advanced settings and pick auto rotate or landscape only, if your using stock sense then I havn't got a clue

HTC Sense doesn't allow the homescreens to rotate at will, generally the home screens are locked into portrait viewing.
I have seen screen shots of the phone homescreen in landscape, I think it's just a glitch... as you said, it's reverted back now and won't do it again.
Unless forced with an app etc...

HTC Sense doesn't allow the homescreens to rotate at will, you have to edit the rosie.apk to get it to work as you've already said.
So it doesn't work as standard.

I have a car dock for my One X, and when it sits in the car dock it is also possible to see the homescreen(s) in landscape mode.
Here is an example:

So it is possible and I find it strange that HTC doesn't allow it when using the device normally.

Rotate HTC 1 X homepage

This app works but...
Hey...even i was searching for some app or mod through which i can get my homescreen in landscape mode while the phone rests in my "new KiDiGi desktop charger" :silly:
So i came across the apps mentioned above.... "Rotation Locker" and "Ultimate Rotation Control"
Rotation locker was a free app but it did not work fully...like the lock screen used to be in portrait only...and the app sometimes flickered between portrait and landscape mode...so i uninstalled it....
Ultimate Rotation Control is amazing...it works perfectly for me...the only issue that it is a 7-day trial after which i would be asked to pay $2 (almost Rs.110 here in India)...
i would not mind paying money to the developer...but since i have a rooted phone with Android Revolution HD 9.4.1 ROM, i was just thinking is there any custom tweek developed for this ROM which can help me get rid of these Third party apps for rotation control....
Does anyone know about any such tweak for rooted HTC One X??
I have another query...i want to know if there is any tweak/app through which i can get my screen to wake up when a new SMS/Whatsapp/mail comes?? basiacally to wake up the screen in case of any notification...
Thanks a lot in advance

Reject call with message not working

Hello,
I want to use the option to reject a call with the default message. I use the ARHD 6.4 rom and the meteo screensaver. But because of the screensaver, the menu button is not working when receiving a call, I can use only the screen to reject or answer the call. If the screen is active and I receive a call, I can press the menu button and reject the call with the message.
Is there a way to disable the screensaver ? Any other solution?
Thanks.

Where did you install that screensaver from?

Is a default one - weather is the name in English ( I think)....

You mean the lock screen? I don't remember HTC Sense or ARHD having any sort of screen saver.

I am referring to this option - see file attached. Could be a lock screen, but is not the one with password or points...
