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.
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.?
Running a non-rooted G2.
Anyone else notice sluggish screen rotation when going from landscape to portrait or vice versa? It seems like it takes over 1s to switch, closer to 1.5s I would say just trying to count out loud.
The only running apps I have besides the stock ones are Tasker, LauncherPro Plus, Beautiful Widgets (1 large widget on homescreen), BattStat, and SwiftKey.
Any way to adjust the speed at which the screen switches orientation?
Thanks
LP+ does have its moments where it slows down. Original launcher is nicee enough no need to replace it
I've noticed a couple glitches related to this now that I've rooted. It's slow, then it shows the icons and even on screen keyboard in smashed or stretched pixels before it changes orientation. Just for a split second but it's annoying and never did it before.
Yeah, I don't know why the automatic screen rotation is so slow with LauncherPro.
My solution for now was to disable the auto rotate under LauncherPro's Behavior Settings.
The G2 switches instantly to landscape mode for you once you slide out the physical keyboard. No lag this way, but you don't get it to change orientation unless you slide out the keyboard.
I've noticed this too! I thought I was the only one. The funny thing is that when you're in a program that needs the accelerometer there is no lag, but on homescreen there is that slight delay when rotating from portrait to landscape.
I've had this issue with SF, corrected by setting desktop scrolling speed to 0 on ADW launcher setting.
Not sure if this will work on your device.
i have noticed that the screen can be rotated to left and right landscape on the Zee with cyanogen 7 but when you use games or video, they only seem to rotate to the left only. is there any way they can be forced to rotate to the right instead?
Videos can rotate either way but it would seem games are written to only rotate a certain way when active..as far as autoposition in landscape. Could be wrong but makes sense to me
dont send me pm's crying about how i hurt your feelings in a thread
cheers spas. does the rotation of video include flash based from websites though is what i wonder. will have to take a look
When i rotate the phone it takes like 2s to rotate the screen. Is it possible to make it faster?? Like instant??
Thanks
