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.

benko286

Ddriver

kekecu

mainsail

WaltA

Lord_BlackAdder

original_ganjaman

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...

I downloaded this changescreen v2.78, but I have a question, I have the htc touch hd and the software works very well, except with the items that touch flo-3D controls, like opera 9.5 and the you tube. when I tap the you tube, touch flo-3D automatically landscapes it, but with the changescreen installed, it takes the you tube shots and makes them extremely small and I have no control over its actions, it does the same with the opera which came installed on the device. It also rotates the touch flo home screen which I don't mind, but it picks up one half the touch flo screen leaving the other half black leaving out the other items thats on the screen. How may I adjust this software to just rotate those items that touch flo-3D won't rotate. Thanks much

Same phone, same problem!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Your opera9 and youtube exceptions should have al boxes unchecked so that they could rotate on their own w/o changeScreen getting involved...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] stugutzo:
how to install

I downloaded changeScreen v2.78

and it downloads as a rar file and inside there are no cab files just a XML setup file and some files that read change~1.001 etc...

I have HTC Diamond 2 and trying to install it and it wont associate any of these files.

What am i doing wrong?

thx heaps
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] stugutzo:
thats ok

da... worked it out!

however I cant get xl to view in landscape

what should my settings be?

thx
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] duall:
same problem... boxes unchecked
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
your exception should say pxl (i think).
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Are you 100% sure your version of Opera is called opera9. I know there was another version (or two) put out. What does the Show App Names button show it as?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] benko286:
some opeeras are called operal !
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] stugutzo:
thx

I added the exception to say pxl and ticked the landscape boxes.

When I view an exl sheet it still stays as a portrait view.

I'm assuming that it rotates automatically as there's no function to change it manually.

I have Diamond 2.

thx
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] MrRalphMan:
I think you are allowing the browser to open the file when downloaded, .CAB files are associated to winrar (or other rar files) and you are seeing what is in the .CAB file.

Try the Save As option and save it to your local drive first.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] RockyOB:
I love this, apart from one thing...

When I switch to landscape mode in an SMS/email, my fullstop (period) key types a comma and vice-versa, but the keys still have their normal symbol on!

Has anyone else encountered this?!

Hi I have LG GM730. I reviewed description of this ptogramm and i like it. I have g-sensor, but this app is not working on my smartphone. Is it only for HTC? Will author provide compatibility with my device?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] cirian75:
cool, great app.

dumbos a HTC should have done this as standard.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] seb_131:
Hi

it don't work on my DX900 device (nothing happen)

Usually the rotate capability works naturally with the standard WM61 functionality, but it is very bad and the settings are poor.

Any idea to get working changescreen on my pocket please. It seems great !

another question, is it possible with it to automatically switch on the screen during a call when the devive is horizontally flipped ?

Thanks a lot
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] johane19:
installed 2.78 and works great. Just one little thing - when the screen tilts while typing sms the keyboard disappears. It is not a big deal to turn it on again by clicking the keyboard icon, but it is one more click.

thanks for a great app.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] eros143:
New to the forum here, but would like to say thanks to all that provided a lot of great information here how to personalize our devices.

I've had my Tilt2 since 16oct and am really liking what they did with it. Glad to have found changescreen program (downloaded 2.78) and my device is almost close to perfect. One thing I have been searching through this thread is how can i allow incoming calls to stay in landscape mode if I'm initially in landscape.

I have my T2 mounted on my car as a navi/multimedia device, but when I receive an incoming call, it switches to portrait. I'm not sure if it's even possible to have landscape for the call screen on this phone.

I read ''redownload 1.52" but i only see 1.54 on the 1st thread. Or does this require registry editing (which I'm always weary of doing). Is there a cab to fix this?

thanks again!

HTC Touch 2

I have installed change screen v2.78 onto my phone, and it is saying unexpected error -- cant find PInvoke DLL "HTCSensorSDK"

I presume this is a driver of some sort??

Have tried looking around through google but to no avail, HTC no help as third party software, even though it sounds like it is their driver? But I think the biggest question of all is does the Touch 2/T3333 have a accelerometer to enable use of this software?

Thanks in advance
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] deepcoveruk:
Yessss.......thank you for making this app.

I previously tried gsen and gyrator2 and neither played nicely with spb mobile shell properly.

I can now send a text in landscape and spb mobile shell remains in portrait fine.

Can't uninstall

Can anyone help a relative newbie please?

I've searched this thread and the Leo section generally, but found nothing which would appear to help me.

I wanted to uninstall ChangeScreen, and used Settings > Application > Remove programs, as usual.

On start-up i now get the message "The file changescreen_config cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trust certificate, or one of the components cannot be found. If the problem persists, reinstalling or restoring the file".

I can click through this and any other similar ones, but it's a bit annoying that I can't seem to fully uninstall a program.

There is also a blank button on the applications screen, which is now titled ‘toggle’, where there used to the be the ChangeScreen icon.

I'm running a standard HD2 from Vodafone UK, with ROM 1.43.405 1.

Any ideas, please? Do I need locate and manually remove some registry entries?

Where is located the dll LargeTitleBar I have to overwrite?

Thanks
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] ML1985:
@sixian above me: the file is in your Windows folder. You might have to select 'display all files' in the menu. Some seem to able to copy it directly. For me, however, that is not the case. Good luck, anyway!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] ML1985:
This doesn't seem to work for me. As soon as I rename the old file to the .BAK extension another file without the .BAK extension appears. So I am unable to copy the new file to the window folder. Does anyone have a suggestion?

edit: never mind, I figured it out. It turns out that the sequence is important. You can't leave the windows folder when you have renamed the original DLL. So first copy the new DLL on your device in a folder other than Windows (e.g. My documents). Second, copy that file onto the clipboard. Third, navigate to the windows folder and rename the old file. Finally, paste the new file and remove the old file. Then reboot.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] MalekoUK:
Superb app! Just want I wanted, many thanks

How to configure for Photos, Music and Documents.

I am really impressed with this product. Thanks so much. But I am finding hard to configure rotation on the Photos, music and documents tabs which by default already include rotation both vertically in Portrait and horizontally in Landscape. I want to make the screen for these applications rotate in the opposite directions too while retaining the same vertical and horizontal scrolling of the stock Manila sense. Can anybody help me please?

So, I am running NRGZ custom ROM running 2.5.2012 Manilla with 5.2.23548 OS and WM6.5 for my Imagio. It also has Cookies 1.7 home tab. I love this program except for one thing, and I hope some one can help. When I lock the phone using cookies, if I rotate, it unlocks. I tried to run the exception, but it only shows Manilla when I am in the lock screen. I really want to run Cookies lock screen, not the stock lock. Any ideas?

Hi I am using changescren with my HTC touch HD with WM 6.5.x on it (build 24001).

Changescreen works superbly except one thing. When the phone rings on incoming call, no matter what I try the screen rotates on all directions...

Since it is impossible to pick up the phone and not move it into any direction, the screen rotates constantly so I cannot even see who is calling...

I have tried everything in exceptions (cprog, gwes etc.) and still cannot find why changescreen rotates the dialer ONLY when the phone is ringing!!!

Could anyone help me?

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] drizo72:
I Think I solved the problem on my own with some googling...

It seems that the autorotation feature of manila was enabled, overriding change screen settings...

I've set HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor autorotation key to 0 and now it works beautifully... Change Screen has control!

How to rotate manila but not the music and photo tab?

Hi guys, i'v installed a rom with sense2.5 and changescreen works great for rotate manila, but i hava an issue with the music and photo tabs, that are anabled to rotate dy default, so when i activate changescreen and rotate the phone from portrait to landscape on that tabs it rotate double, but mantain the landscape layout, so they are uselesss... there are some ways to block the rotation for only that tabs in changescreen?

Thanks
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Stephane Dufault:
I am the same problem, I think it is related to manilla rotating (not phone/cprog) while the phone ringning and loading the phone UI, so to many thing for a TP2.

Maybe you could disable the app when a call is received?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Stephane Dufault:
Rotation while Idle ?

Hi,

Your app is great!

Just 2 small issues:

Should the Rotation still occur while Idle/Suspend (if I put it to sleep while Portrait, then flip Landscape, then wake it back to Portrait I see it rotating from Landscape to Portrait)? This slow down thing, because you have to wait a 1-2sec to finish rotating before you can use it.

The detection for sleep when "put in the pocket" does not work most of the time, not sure why (I try to figure it out), it should be a full proof logic : if upside down and dark... I would be nice, to add wake when upside up and light only after put to sleep by th above.

Thanks,

manila goes black when asked to rotate

Hello All,

Searched through this thread but couldn’t see the same problem.

•	Checking all the manila boxes to rotate in exceptions

•	Then rotating say the home screen or calendar results in a black screen

Hi all, I have a hd2 never unlocked and with the original firmware 3.14.408.2. I have the last version of .net. When I install changescreen, I have error with services.exe. Do you have a solution? I have also done a soft reset, but nothing new. Thanks

Happy NY! I think this solved my screen rotation issue. I downloaded ChangeScreen on my Tilt2 and set everything i could to landscape as a default . Ive set u exception rules , etc so that all i want was landscape. but each time i got a "Messaging" notification display in the upper left of the screen, it made my display go back to portrait.. same with using the phone. Sooooo i changed the key like you demonstrated above and it worked!

Changescreen Keeps Going back to Portrait

Well, my screen resolution keeps going back to Portrait immediately after viewing an email or message (in landscape). For some reason, after closing a message, the 'today screen' reverts to portrait til i physically change it back to landscape. any suggestions?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
? what ?

Btw - if you have a screen called "Atricle" and a screen called "Articles" you only need to add in "Article" into your exceptions...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] timtlm:
So, I found a problem. I have set the program to only rotate the items in the exclusion list. One of the items is "text messages". When I go to start typing a text message in the threaded text message view the window name changes to 1/160 to 2/160 etc. and increments up for every character I type to indicate how many characters I have remaining. So, as soon as i enter one character the screen changes back to portrait because the window name no longer matches an item in my exclusion list. The only way I found to get around this is to add the numbers 1-9 to the exclusion list or uncheck "ONLY rotate the apps in my exclusion list" and add most of my programs to the exclusion list. Have any other thoughts?

update: Maybe not all ROMs have this feature to show characters remaining in the threaded text message view. I have a CDMA phone running Juicy 3.9 from ppcgeeks. Anyway, adding 1-9 does work just fine because I can't think of any windows starting with numbers besides this.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
I know exactly what you mean. I'm looking into another way to get the current program that wont affect the performance of the app. Hopefully one that will solve the problems like this one. I'll update as soon as I can...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] CorruptedSanity:
The app works great on my HD and wife and sister's diamonds.

I have it set so that it will only rotate on sms and rss reader apps. Which is great because the full qwerty keyboard is longer horizontally which makes it very similar to the touch pro's and tytn ii's physical keyboard!

Originally the keyboard is 480 pixels wide, but when rotated it is 800 pixels wide. So it has doubled in size making it easier to type. Combine this snailslug's touchresponse and you have overcome the lack of phsyical keyboard.

Thanks once again 600GOL.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
No problem glad you like it.

Landscape Keyboard

I've installed this on HTC Touch HD and when I am typing an SMS in Landscape mode the full stop and comma are swapped round on the keayboard, i.e. you type a full stop and get a comma and vica versa.

Also in porttrait when you hold a key down to get a symbol it is fine but in landscape mode you get the symbol and the letter the symbol is on.

Other than that, it's great.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Has anyone else experienced this?? This doesn't happen on the Touch Pro...

Happy to hear you like it btw...

Hi,

I use this program on a Touch HD (WWE) aswell. The problem does not occur on my device, landscape keyboard works 100%. I set up your utility to ONLY rotate apps in the exceptions-list. It's a great tool, truly an asset to my Touch HD...thank you !

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gurluver:
on my Touch HD, doesn't matter if I tick the option "ONLY rotate program in exception list", it doesn't behave correctly to ONLY the program in the list, or NONE of the program in the list. E.g. SMS \ MMS are always rotated regardless.

And no, i don't run any other rotation program in the background
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] wazzay2k1:
Im still gettting some TomTom rotation problems, when i go round a tight corner or very bumpy road... it quickly rotates from landscape to portrait, back to landscape.... Any ideas?!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] oscahie:
Yep, happens to me too...

Would it be possible to have a separate list of window names that shall only be rotated when a certain hardware key is pressed? Or may be even by just shaking the phone (that'd be really cool).
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Cupra TDI:
I have also the problem that the program is too sensible. Sometimes it is changing from portrait to landscape and back.

Another problem is, that the device still tries to flip manila, whereas this option has been disabled. Mostly it happens, when the device wakes up from standby / from S2U2.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] ^Rook:
Hi,

It'd be excellent if one could adjust rotation sensitivity :) I'm a big fan of this utility...but I too get numerous accidental rotations every day :cool:

When i set to only rotate application in exceptions and untick the option of Rotate application in 180 degree. The application still able rotate upside down. My application to only rotate is SMS / MMS. Hope u can help~. And thanks for a simple but workable program.

Great application. Thats what I am looking for on my Touch HD. Simply and users friendly program. Thanks for your hard work.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Yeah that was a stupid mistake on my part. It will be fixed in the next version.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Really? I haven't experienced this... The only thing that happens to me is that if im in landscape on an app thats not in my exceptions and click HOME or navigate to an exception it will try to rotate back to portrait and sometimes may appear in landscape for a moment while rotating back...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
If you didn't want to rotate SMS / MMS or ONLY rotate SMS / MMS you would have to add the following to your exceptions:

1

2

3

4

5

6

7

8

9

0

The reason is that the window name changes with each letter you type...

This will also be fixed in the next release. Sorry for the inconvenience for now...
