Thank you very much, love your application.

I will send some food for your son.

Grtz, Leo :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Thanks alot man. I really appreciate the donation! & i'm glad a senior member like yourself finds the application useful.

Any problems let me know!

Thanks again!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] vic_lee:
why the latest version of changescreen doesn't work on my HD/blackstone???

anything wrong?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
What exactly is (or isnt) happening?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] vic_lee:
the "turn to suspend" is work... but the screen won't rotate >.<

help me...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Can you send me (or upoad) your configuration? Use the Export button on the Help tab and export your configuration to a .txt file - then upload it to your next post. I'll take a look and let you know if anything in the config is off...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Teddyen:
Hi!

I used Gyrator 2 before switching to your app in the hope that it would fix the Topaz / Diamond 2 dialer problem. No luck =( I tried changing the "FaceDownMuteRing" entry to 0, but it didn't help. The app still stop rotating the screen after I've made or received a call. Besides, I really like the "FaceDownMuteRing" function, so I'd had to find a workaround to get that working again if that was the solution.

Is there a solution to this problem? Preferably with changeScreen, I like this app way better than Gyrator 2 when it comes to exeptions =)

EDIT: Setting it to 0 and making a soft reset "fixed" the problem with changeScreen, now I have to find a way to get "FaceDownMuteRing" to work again without setting it to 1. One problem's solution is the other problem's reason... Can anyone help me out on this please? =)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] WaltA:
(never mind)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] MasK:
Thanks for the aap.

Do you happen to have any plans to support screen-off/standby at face-down and 180 degrees (reverse portrait)? I understand U currently have screen-off at face down..

Thanks!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Teddyen:
Another good feature would be key/screen lock AND suspend (preferably both, but also a option to choose between having both or just one of them) at face down or reverse portrait. The suspend on face down is pretty much useless to me as I must have the keylock on to be sure that I don't call some foreigners from my pocket ;) Reverse portrait lock+suspend would be great, then we just have to put it upside-down into our pockets and forget about it!

...or you could just forget about all of this because you wanted the app to be a rotation-only app in the first place. The only feature I'm missing then is a way to get face-down-mute(-and-screen-off) supported by your app since I have to turn it off to get your app to work. I know it's HTC's fault, but still ^^
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Sorry for those problems dude. If and when I can find a solution i'll definately post it here

Read below

Right now changescreen has the option to turn off on reverse portrait. Its the turn off in pocket checkbox on the Advanced tab. The next version will let you switch how you want the device to turn off - whether you want the device to fully suspend or only turn off the screen. Next version should be out sometime this weekend. I'll look into adding a mute on face down function also...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Teddyen:
Wow, great!

I thought the "Turn off in pocket" was based on the light sensor (I tried another lock-program with a similar option, that only resulted in the phone rendered useless by night if I couldn't find a light source). Maybe there should be a short description of how these features work in the manual?

As mentioned, if it could lock the phone together with the suspend, it would be perfect. I accidentally suspended the device and put it in my pocket without the lock earlier today, resulting in a couple of sms'. =P Suspend without lock is useless, at least to me.

Really looking forward to see if you can find a workaround for the mute function.

I feel like I'm demanding very much now, but I'm actually just trying to give some good feedback on what I miss in an already good app. Fantastic with such an active developer, keep up the good work! :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] MasK:
Cool. The face down works great (with the "only if NO light" unchecked).

The "suspend device is pocket" doesn't work though.. Am I missing out on anything?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
No - u're probably not missing anything. The version that you have has the light sensor checking if its value is 0 (no light) but some devices only have a value of 1 or 2 when there is no light. The next version will allow you to configure this value with the click of a button!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
I'm looking into the muting issue - and the next version will allow you to specify if you want to suspend the device (which would lock it also if you have a locking app set) or to just shut off the screen. Glad you like the app so far!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Sorry for everyone thats been patiently waiting for the new version. I had to recover from UFC 100 on Sunday - which is when I planned on finishing version 2.79. Then I got a new project slammed on me @ work! The new version is pretty stable but theres just a few things that need finishing before I put it out. I will find the time through the nxt couple of days. Again - sorry to everyone who has been waiting & version 2.79 will be out shortly!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] wvchapp:
labrynth or labyrinth?

600GOL, I just started using changeScreen for the first time and love it. It does exactly what I need simply and easily.

One thing I noticed in the default exceptions list is that you spelled Teeter as "labrynth". On my Sprint Diamond running the latest Sprint ROM 2.00.651.7, it's spelled "labyrinth".

Teeter seems to work just fine with both the default exceptions and when I modify them, so it's not a big deal either way.

Thanks for a great app!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Dude, i dunno.

i have a bad habit of rushing things so it very well could just be a misspelling... Other than that I'm glad you like the app.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Sorry people - Bad news

I regret to tell you all that I recently burned out my touch pro...

I have a heated mug that I keep in my car which runs off of 12 volts and without thinking I put that into the phone... and left it there........... until I started to smell the burning!

Anyway - I hadn't finished the development of the latest version of changeScreen. There was still a few bugs that I needed to resolve before I put it out for you all. I don't know when I'll be getting a new device (hopefully soon) so I'm going to need some help from a few of you.

Basically - I need a few people that are willing to install the new version of changeScreen on their devices and tell me wtf I screwed up so I can fix it - and we could put it out here for the rest of the changeScreen users.

Again - really sorry. I know a lot of you have been waiting for this next version! I'm f****n pissed too - I just got Pandora working after weeks of trying!!! and now I have to go from an awsome HTC device to a motorola razr!

PM me if you want to try out the new version - I'll have it ready in a couple days for some of you to test (if you want) - or we could all just wait.

Please only PM me if you really have the time to test out the new version. If you just want the feature in it don't bother cuz you'll just be disappointed if and when they don't work correctly!

Thanks!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
2.79 Beta in progress...

A few people are testing the 2.79 BETA version now & things are coming along well considering I still don't have a device... I should be getting a new device sometime this coming week - so expect the final 2.79 release next week as well.

Thanks for all the patience!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Doctor Rico:
Hi there,

The latest version does not work for me at all. I DL'd the former version, 2.3 (although the link says 2.1) And it works fine. Very very pleased. Thank you very much. (Touch HD)

Rotating Tomtom screen

I've just started to use changescreen. I've got the Tmobile MDA compact 4. I've noticed when using Tomtom (version 7.910) and I haven't plugged in the charger everything works fine. However if I plug in the charger, or start Tomtom with the charger already plugged in, when I rotate the phone to landscape for less than a minute and the Manilla screen is displayed. Tomtom continues running in the background and you can hear it's instructions. Is this a quirk in the application?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] PMoto:
Thanks for all the hard work. It's time for me to try this too.

Hope you get a Diamond2 (Topaz) like me ... eh eh eh

PMoto
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Lorddeff07:
Great work man, one question.

Can this make the manilla screen rotate. thats all the TF3d tabs including the home screen.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
No problem

Actually got another Fuze (Touch Pro) but i've been testing out the Touch pro 2 which just came out for T-mobile in the states and I have to admit - I'm in love - I'll probably be switching to that soon...

It can IF your version of manila supports landscape mode. Some older versions (like the one I have) do not in which case you should keep it as an exception...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
I don't really know... I've never had that happen to me before. Maybe (if this fits your situation) have Tomtom start in landscape mode by having an exception for Tomtom with only the landscape box checked?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
New Device & Continuing Development

Hey all - just got me a new device!

1st of all let me say thanks to the following people for testing the new version for us all.

Unfortunately there were some things that I need to adjust and now that I have a device I could do so. I'll take some time over the next couple of days and tweak up the next version according to some of the suggestions / bugs mentioned to me by the list above.

Sorry again to everyone thats been patiently waiting for the next release. It'll be here soon...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] StevePritchard:
Hey dude - glad you got a new device. Now I can pass on a problem I occassionally have (apologies if it's been reported before) - I've not been able to tie it down completely, but I've noticed in WM6.5 that sometimes things that were open in the background get rotated, but not resized.

One way to recreate this is to open your eMail from the CHome start screen in portrait. Once your eMail is open, rotate to landscape, and close it. This should take you back to the CHome screen with the phone still in landscape, but you should find that the menu has been rotated, but is still in portrait format. This means that the right hand edge of the screen isn't refreshed, and that the left soft-button is overdrawn. Interestingly, if you put the phone flat, it seems to correct itself after a short while, but there's no vibration (so I'm wondering whether the correction is not changeScreen sorting it out, but CHome doing something).

FYI - I don't have any exceptions set for CHome. I've seen this happen on the WM6.5 start menus, and other applications (Comm Mgr, etc) so it's not restricted to CHome.

Cheers,

Steve.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] jcl247:
Sorry if this has been mentioned, haven't had time to read all of the pages. Is there a way to adjust the threshold when the screen rotates? Mine rotates at about 45 degrees. I would prefer to have it rotate closer to 90. Even if this doesn't get addressed, I love the program.

Thanks.

Edit. Finally read through the thread and saw this has been mentioned. sorry.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Deltatristar500:
Love this new app, it does seem to stop working after a bit, but I'm sure it will get better down the road. Looking forward to more updates. I still have Flipit, and it did a great job. But definitely want to give this one a try.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Good to hear from you again Steve. I'll look into the issue soon as I put 6.5 on my device (still waiting)...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] RomanovRaphael:
is this possible if i were to rotate with the aid of accelorometer??means if i rotate...will the screen rotate too automatic?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] StevePritchard:
That's exactly what changeScreen does.

Cheers,

Steve.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Bingo!!!!!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] powermax928:
i have G-Config in my rom can i use it with changeScreen or will conflict
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] scottspa74:
@ 600gol

It's been a while since I been on your thread. Changescreen remains one of my absolute most important apps. Still using v2.5. Sorry to hear about your fuze. Glad to hear you're back in biz with a new HTC.

Anyhow, I started using e-natives task switcher (which also is GREAT for winmo). Problem is, changeScreen and task switcher (Showcase) won't work together. :(

Someone just posted on Showcase thread that v2.78 works withh showcase. I'm about to try it. changeScreen has always been my most prized app that makes my diamond what it should be. Again, thank you.

how do u download it on ur phone do u do it strait from the phone or do u do it off the the computer and if u do it off the computer how
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] WaltA:
You need to get the .cab file onto your phone. If your phone has a web browser, select the link to download it directly. If your phone doesn't (or you have to pay for data), use your PC's browser to download the .cab file, and then transfer the file to your phone.

Once on your phone, simply use a file lister (File Explorer) to find the file, and select it (open it). That will trigger the install.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] brian.:
so, is there a way to have an "only" list or make it function like one instead of adding every exception? after using this for a while, i found that I only really need landscape when I want a full qwerty keyboard, which is when texting.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] StevePritchard:
Er... doesn't that mean that you simply don't want to install this then? The screen automatically goes landscape when you flip out the keyboard, and would stay portrait at all other times (unless the app itself supports rotation).

Cheers,

Steve.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] WaltA:
I think he might be using a virtual (screen) keyboard, and not a physical (slide out) keyboard.

If I am reading his request correctly, he wants changeScreen to

only

force landscape mode when he activates his on-screen keyboard while texting. I guess an on-screen keyboard works/looks best in landscape?

Setting the default to Portrait (

only

check that one box), and then have only one exception, his texting program, set to Landscape (

only

check that one box), would work, no?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] imitation66:
I love this program! So much that it has made me post for the first time ever.I only use this program for my tomtom navigator om my touch HD then leave it disabled the rest of the time so I don't have any of the problems that other users have experienced and not much setting up to do. What can I say,I'm a simple person with simple needs.

I only have one problem and it is not exclusive to this program. When I start tomtom in landscape mode, I always get the black title bar at the top of the screen which makes the map area smaller. This used to happen in gyrator2 but going into the settings on that program was very daunting for me. I like this program for its simplicity, its speed and the ability to configure exceptions easily. Can this program stop the title bar appearing? Or would it take something like anouther program or a change to some phone settings to stop it?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] WaltA:
Have you tried the fix mentioned in the very first post in this thread? In reading thru that (long) posting, you'll find it immediately above the screen shots.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] imitation66:
D'oh. Hours reading through 69 pages. Do I feel stupid.

Thanks for the reply.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] WaltA:
Don't feel stupid... its very easy to miss. ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] imitation66:
I do have another question and hopefully I have not missed it earlier. How do you copy the LargeTitleBar.dll to the windows folder? I just get an access denied message asking me to check if I have sufficient memory and permission to change it.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] WaltA:
You might need to download and install SdkCerts.cab first. That gives you "permission" to play with the system files.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] imitation66:
Thanks waltA. I couldn't get that cab to install. I looked on a different site and found another cab file that did install. I then tried to copy over the largetitlebar.dll both before and after a soft reset but no joy. I did some searching and found INGlargetitlebarWWE.cab on another thread and that did the trick. Tomtom now works just the way I want.

Here is link to ING largetitlebarWWE.cab http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=387912

Thanks for your help.

why i can't rotate the manila

After install the .cab file,only manila had the problems
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] sendoh:
Hi, just a little question, have you tried changescreen , with the acer f1 s200, because, it doesn't work at all, maybe it is a driver problem , could you please check it out guys if you can,

thanks to all the community.

just downloaded the cab

for my touch pro 2! LOVE IT !

easy as pie.

how do i get my pic to rotate once i pic it you know cant do anything but zoom bo0o0o?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] fiona14:
Saw this app recommended in the Energy Rhodium thread. But I see this thread is on the Raphael thread. Will it still work on a Rhodium (ATT Tilt 2)? Thanks so much!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] scottspa74:
I know this is really old, but just stumbled across it lookin for 600gol. Anyhow, this issue puzzled me me for some time too. I found that there are dependencies on whether you have htcalbum or camera set up in your exceptions list and whether you check all or none for each one and whether you open pics through camera if album it will behave differently. Lot of variables. It took me a while to figure what it would do and when and how to make it do it (as far as photos) great dev though.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] frosty911:
I tried this application out last night and spent quite a bit of time trying to figure out how I can get album rotation with the HTC album. Seems the photo won't rotate, but the menu bar will rotate (the arrow, slide show button, etc). Would anyone have an hints so I can get the photos to rotate.

On a side note, my Fuze has to programs which allow viewing of photos. There is the HTC Album, and there is also a "Photos and Videos". THe Photos and videos will rotate along with its menu bar when the CHangscreen app is running. Its just htc album which will not.

Seems after reading the post above mine, i need too look with playing with the Exceptions. The camera is driving me nuts.... I am constantly getting a black screen when i rotate the phone to the normal landscape when trying to take a photo. Basically rotating counter clockwise

thankyou for any time spent reading the post.

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] YL Groper:
Sorry if this has been asked already. I have installed your app a few hours ago....good stuff. Im at work and dont want to read through 6 pages of this thread but my question is...

Can you add the ability to disable rotation for everything, with the exeption of the windows/apps/frames that you would like to rotate?

I pretty much only want my vz naz to rotate for the time being.

Thanks..

*Darth Grouper*
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
As of now no... but this seems like a reasonable request... I'll include an option for this.

I think the reason why people seem to like the app is that its simple... which is the exact reason I decided to make it! Just to keep is as simple as possible i'll include an "Advanced" tab for all future requests.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] the guitarist:
Thanks for the Great App 600GOL , it works great but here is a suggestion i think you'll find very usful

can you make your program supported by "AppToDate" Application so that we can fellow your updates automatically?

i think that would be great
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] xboxhaxorz:
I just installed the latest version. It works but only if i click the program when in the programs menu. I have it to load on start up but doesnt seem to work :(
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
This feature has been added under "Advanced". See 1st post for re-download and screenshot!

Thanks, I will definately look into this...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Try to uncheck "Run on Startup" then Save... go back in and recheck and "Save"...

After the device restarts and you open the changeScreen config screen, is the "Enabled" box checked?? Let me know and i'll see what I can do...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Ovrclck:
What would I put in the exceptions list to make my dialer screen not rotate?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
You would type in "phone"... If you use the "Show App Names" button it will display the name of the windows so you know what to type in.

example: Press "Show app names" then press the call button so that the dialer appears. It should show the word "phone" in the middle of the screen... Once youve got the name go back into changeScreen config and type it in the exceptions then press "Save"...

*press "Stop" to stop showing the names... Hope that helps!

Also, touchflo3d should not rotate by default... you shouldn't need to type in manilla and touchflo3d... let me know how that works!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Ovrclck:
I just figured it out! sorry about the stupid post.. lmao :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 600GOL:

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] rjmjr69:
Well thats sorta a total differnet type of program. This rotates your screen not lock it if you want to do that look at PocketShield or Touch lock Pro which is the best if you ask me.

As for this app.

It seems to be a bit buggy on my Sprint TP oem not many apps non IMO that would interfere with this since I installed it right after a hard rest.

The problem is it seems to either

a: take forever to load and run like 5 minutes

b: Need an app to trigger it?

It doesnt seem to work until I use the keyboard or an app that tilts already. Once one of those two are used then it will rotate the screens?

Or like I said its litterly taking forever to load?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] demonizator:
Great and simple app! Thumbs up!

update:

I'm still experiencing rotation with the keyboard open. I can't say it's a problem for me yet - I can even find it usefull sometimes, but just letting you know.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] rjmjr69:
Happens here as well
