Thx for such a fantastic app, installed on my new Touch HD & absolutely lovin it!

If someone could pls offer some advice 2 a noob i'd be most grateful.....

Strugglin with 'Screen off on face down' configuation. I have added a new event with:

app - 'any window'

Orient - 'face up'

actions - 'turn screen off'

It does 'screen off' on some windows but not all, notably TF3D.

Am I going about this all wrong? I have spent hrs going through this extremely large (& informative) thread but I can't figure wot i'm doin wrong!

I feel very humbled that what is probably easy 2 most of u is not so easy for me. Any step by step advice would be much appreciated.... :)

Promoted the event up the list of events, this seems to have worked!

Is there a more in depth guide for noobs like myself anywhere to help get to know the workings of the app, i really am completely new to this kinda stuff & not confident enough to mess when I'm not sure wot i'm doin!

Thanks again!

I would love this function, too.

Is there any way of implementing it?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] iago_00:
Adding to wishlist:

4. "Turn backlight (screen) on" action

5. autostart - option

6. and maybe this is too much but integrating some light sensor functions, would just be great

Keep it up! and thanks

nice work, it works well with Diamond with HD manilla, thank you
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] JZ SmartMort:
Five stars!

Great app, five stars awarded baby :) on HTC Fuze with NATF 3.2 ROM

The only thing that needs clarification is that the "Rotate" event that you distribute should always be last, after all exceptions. Once I understood that flow, it really works well. Sometimes my "screen off on face down" event does not work but it's because the app closes for some reason and is not minimized. BTW spelling error, minimise with an is not correct spelling :)

Thanks!

The number of emails I've got about that "mis-spelling". People seem to assume that if you speak English, you are American nowadays. Finally someone has noticed that I'm English though, lol.

I also just want to say a massive thanks to all of the people that have continued to donate to me, you know who you are. I feel they all deserve a big thanks again, especially considering money is short at the moment due the the economic "crisis" that seems to have hit the planet.

Donations so far have kept me furnished with web hosting and payments for domains, as well as the odd xmas present for the hard work, hehe... I'm also looking for a few "sensible" features I can add to Gyrator, i'm getting bored and I want to do something cool with it to make it that much more desirable.

As for the idea of sensible, things like waking up the device on certain events. This simply isn't possible with my knowledge i'm afraid. Also, events like shaking the device would also not be possible with the current framework i've made, and it would likely require another full rebuild to get the functionality in there. I am still looking into a sensible way to allow you to ahve more than one rule for an aplication. I have some ideas, but they have their flaws and may make the program less efficient. The changes i've thaught of, however, would not need any changes to setup files, so hopefully there would be no disruption, although you would ahve to manually backup and transfer your settings file.

An idea I did have was to make the application use the settings file in the execution directory as a default, and then look in "/ApplicationData" for another copy, then load the defaults if this isn't found. What do you think of this idea? Wouldn't be too hard to implement, and I would assume it would make life simpler for you all when updating Gyrator...

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] cokoblazed:
As you can see i'm new to this, and there is a lot of post to read through, which i dont really have the time to read, and i apologize if my questions might have been answered earlier. What i am trying to find out, along with my post above, is how i can disable the program for the touchflo home screen and for the phone (when i receive calls the phone automtically picks up the call). Also is the phone suppose to lock when i put the stylus back in the phone..if so, is there any way to disable this feature?

other than those problems the program is working perfectly. would just like to get those problems solved.

Hi brins0,

Have you seen this thread and post:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3066922&postcount=20

This "Thilo T." guy seems to have found a way to poll the G-sensor in standby/suspend mode (see item 1 in his list of issues and following posts).

Maybe worth investigating/asking him how? ;)

Cheers!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] brins0:
I have had a look into how the wakeup procedure works. You can invoke the system to wake up every so often, which causes it to enter a transitative state where you have a couple of seconds to do things. From what I understand there, he does indeed seem to have found a way to poll them outside of this state, without having to wake it up.

Thanks the the info, i'll PM him shortly to see if he's willing to share his findings...

Memmaid broke it!

Installed Memmaid and checked it out, 1st thing I noticed is that it broke my Gyrator app. Gives me a .NET CF initialization error. I have tried re-installing .NET and Gyrator to no avail. Have you experienced this before, or know how to fix it?

Hi Brins0,

awsome app, have it working perfectly, but as many others have said any chance of creating it as a service, as I am finding that it is randomly dropping the application, and therefore have to start it up. Its rather annoying having to do this all the time, or reboot the phone.

So is there any chance this could be factored into the next release?

Thanks

Possible to run application / shortcut on rotation?

Hello,

I am trying to find a way to run a shortcut on rotation using gyrator. I currently prefer the stock diamond compact qwerty in portrait mode and spb fullscreen keyboard in landscape. I have made shortcuts to change the active keyboard, and would like to run them on rotation.

Is this possible using gyrator?

Thanks!

Any solution ?

2. what about "USB-Connect" --> can i creat a event when usb is plugged on ?

Because i must enable keylock ... only so i can choose between hdd oder activ sync

Key lock not working if PIN is set (sys 20954 and 21109)

First post in this forum. Let me say this is an invaluable application and is almost perfect in my book. I have one problem.

After a ROM upgrade from stock to a ROM built with either SYS version 20954 or 21109, the key lock function does not work if a PIN is set on the phone. My first event is triggered by orientation, any window name, face-down or reverse-portrait and stylus inserted. The events checked are vibrate, activate key lock and suspend device. This combination (PIN and key lock) worked fine in previous SYS implementations. Another app I was trying for locking also broke in the same way. Gyrator works fine (locks the keys when told to do so) as long as there is no PIN set. Set a PIN though and the device lock does nothing except flash the screen momentarily. The today screen lock plug-in works (even with a PIN set) - but of course you can't use that if also using TF3D.

From previous posts, I collected the following two bits of info you posted:

Any thoughts here on either something I can configure in Gyrator or elsewhere in the phone to allow the keylock function in Gyrator to work when the phone also has a PIN?

its worth noting that everytime you reboot your phone a new random number for task manager is created, see the below config item

Disable(task manager) ,ATL:1330510,1,1,0,,0

To correct this simple go into the gyrator config screen, edit the taskmanager event and then choose ‘application’ tab followed by the ‘learn window class’ pull out your styls go to start choose today click on the task manager top right side then put the styles back in with the task manager still open. And then you have the new numbers. Apply it and your done.

Always backup your .ini file!!!!

Keypress Simulation

Hi.

I have HTC Touch HD. As you know, this device doesn't have hardware buttons and I need to simulate Keypressing left/right/up/down by turning device to Portrait/Landscape/Reverse Portrait/Reverse Landscape in some programs. Do you know if it's possible to setup Gyrator like this? When I create new event for the program, I check orientation Portrait, Simulate Keypress, and Value 37 of Key and check Orientation item in Event Menu. So when I'm in the pogram and turn device to landscape, the Up button is pressed and everything works. The problem is, that it's not possible to create next three events in Gyrator for functions left/rigt/down buttons, because only the first one event works only. Some suggestions? Can the newer release of Gyrator supportthis function?

help for a newbie that doesn't know much of this techinical stuff

does this work with the Sprint HTC Touch Diamond now? Is there a cab file I can install to make this work? I don't understand the other ways to install stuff. Is there an easy way to make the screen rotate when its turned no matter what application you're working in? does it mess up tf3d icons or do they change orientation too? I really don't understand this techinical stuff but would like to be able to turn my phone and have my screen rotate accordingly.

i have exactly the same issue. loverly app, but whats really bugging me is the fact that manlia rotates when the stylus is in and phone is locked, in running it on touch HD btw. i know its really only cosmetic but its driving me nuts!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] cantwait2b:

Hi,

I've installed this app on my HCT HD, it work pretty good excetp that it rotate too much thing for me.

Sometimes it's really annoying to have the app rotating, so I would like to block the rotation by default and only allow this feature to selected applications.

How can I do that ?

App runing as a Service is a must have, this is crazy the amount of time I've to restart this app during the day.

Except that I like the stylus look option a lot :)

I've noticed that the Home screen is rotating when phone is locked even with the additional line liste in a post above.

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Hi guys,

I have both of these lines in my ini:

Disable(Phone - Incoming),Phone - Incoming,1,0,0,,0

Disable (Phone),Phone ,1,0,0,,0

This stops the rotation on incoming calls, but it does not stop the rotation once the call is connected or in the phone dialpad (dialer). How can I stop the rotation once the call is connected and on the phone dialer?

Thanks!

error message after installing cab, help.

I downloaded the cab to my sprint htc touch diamond and get the following error message, how do I fix this?

"an unexpected error has occurred in gyrator2.exe. select quit and restart program, or select details for more information.

this application requires a newer version of the microsoft .NET compact framework than the version installed on this device."

I've tried restarting and get the same message. So how and where do I get a version of microsoft .NET that this program will work with? Is there somewhere I can download it for free? Would it then automaticallly replace the existing version I have on my phone. FWIW I just got this phone brand new about a month ago if that. I would have assumed the technology would be the latest available... please help me. thank you in advance.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] micasa:
Love this tool. I'm trying to figure out if I can make it mute a phonecall and also to turn speakerphone on or off.

When on a call I'd like to have this scenario work...

Place phone facedown and the call is muted and then the speakerphone turns on.

I pick up the phone and the speakerphone turns off and the call is unmuted.

Currently I'm trying to chain events...like right soft key and then M (for mute) but they both appear to fire to closely together for the phone to get the M.

This would make it the cats meow and the first item I donated to :-)

I'm wondering if it's possible by sending the keystrokes to the device. I hate to try them all so if it's not possible stop me now.

Oh ya, one more thing would be nice. I removed sensorlock from my phone, but I like the way it could unlock the phone for me. I prefer just to use gyrator, but would really love to have the ability to unlock the phone tied to some of these events.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] micasa:
Here's what I'm trying to do but to no avail...

As my previous post says...I want to facedown (while on a call) and have it mute & speakerphone. At least mute would be nice.

To do this I can send a RIGHT Soft Key (133) when it's face down, but then when I try to send the "M" (77) it never gets sent. I've tried changing it to dialog or even when the phone is face up for the M key to be sent. But nothing happens. I tested it with notes (instead of phone) and it appears it only sends the first event action. If there are multiple events within that app they never fire.

So I guess I'll have to wait until mute & speakerphone get added (but then also I'd still need to do two events at one time). So that when the phone is facedown I set the mute and I set the speakerphone on.

Edit: Just read the advanced page on gyrator site and it says:

-------------------------

When the event processor hits a rule with a "*" for the class name, it is performed irrigardless of the focused window, then the processor moves down the list to the next rule.

When the processor hits a rule which has a named window class, if that window is currently focused, then the event will be triggered, and the processor will ignore all events below it. If the window is not focused, the rule is ignored, and the next one is processed.

You can use this processing sequence to your advantage when addind a large number of events. for instance, if you want all windows to rotate, add the rule to the list. If you then want to exclude certain windows, add the event above the "*" rule, and it will be excluded.

---------------------------

Just wondering why if I set the "M" key to be sent when dialog is the class (since it is when you hit the right softkey) And then set the phone to hit the right softkey when face down...the gyrator never triggers the right softkey. Shouldn't it process down to the phone action?
