Thank you 600GOL.

Yes it happens when you start a full screen application in portrait mode and then you rotate the phone in landscape.

If you start the full screen application in landscape mode it doesn't happen.

Sorry for my English.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Ok. I'll check it out
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] FinalAeon:
Thats exactly what i needed, is it already a feature?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Yeap - its on the Advanced tab.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] paco644:
newbie question

how do you install the change screen software? I tried just putting the files in my docs then running setup but does not work. Sorry for the newbie question
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] FinalAeon:
Thanks I'll try it out. Cheers
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Claus72:
I have solved the problem by overwriting the dll LargeTitleBar with the one atteched. ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
That should have worked. Only other thing I can suggest is downloading it directly from your phone.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Nice! How long have you been testing it out for?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Philip:
I have just tried this and (after a soft reset) it seems to work for me on my HTC Touch HD - TomTom no longer has the Title Bar superimposed on it. Many thanks!

Are you able to tell us where this DLL came from, or anything else about it?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Claus72:
One day. Two other user solved too with this dll.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Claus72:
I have the taskbar 6 elite v.3, so the dll came from tsowentaskbar6v3 http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=54514
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] shark147:
Hi,

I confirm with this DLL the problem solved, in my ROM...

Good Application...:)

P.S: Thanks Claus72 for FIX...

i love this app!

thanks a lot mate :)

Possible Bugs in 2.77

FWIW (and none of this is preventing my enjoyment of changeScreen) I've bumped into some odd behaviors:

I accidentally created a duplicate "Exception" (i.e., two exceptions for the same app), and changeScreen could not "Save" or start - the app threw an error (I could replicate and transcribe the app exception if you like) and crashed. Exceptions in exceptions not handled? I *was* able to restart the config utility, and finally noticed the dupe which I manually deleted, thus permitting a successful save/enable.

Exporting configuration doesn't seem to work right: on the export screen, I get an empty pulldown for "Type" (no selection available) so the only way I can force the app to export the config is to click on some existing file (of virtually any type), which then causes the app to immediately export the config with that existing file's name. Additionally, if I click "Cancel" on the export screen, I get a message that 'File exported to "!' (null file name?) though I don't see that any actual file has been exported or saved.

Importing a saved config file doesn't seem to overwrite the existing config - it just adds to the existing configs, which then creates the condition described in #1 - I have to manually delete all duplicates from exceptions list in order to save/enable changeScreen.

My config:

HTC TouchPro (OEM) with HTC ROM 5.05.401.1 WWE (WM 6.1)

CF 3.5 is installed (as I formerly used Gyrator2)

Also, I sent some money to feed your son so I hope he's doing well...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
I really appreciate the donation man. If it wasn't for you guys I would have stopped trying to keep up with these threads a long time ago!

As for the errors they all sound like they are just my stupid mistakes. The duplicate exception was reported by others as well so I'll definately put out a fix for that soon. As for the import and export I must have just overlooked them when putting together the new version. I'll put out a new version with the fix for all those errors soon.

Thanks for the detailed description AND for the donation!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Great that the fix works! I'll include it in the 1st post! Thanks to Claus72 for the research and the post!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
No problem buddy. Glad to hear you like the app!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] iphoneresister:
No worries at my end as the app works great, but I'll check back periodically for updates. The donation was absolutely my pleasure as your nifty utility has vastly improved my TouchPro - I can actually use it as a phone again without having to chase the answer button through multiple unexpected orientation changes!!!

FWIW, I like your app much better than I liked Gyrator 2 - it seems like changeScreen responds faster; it's MUCH easier to configure; it leaves out lots of things I would never use; and, since I am OCD also, not seeing it in the task manager makes me feel [edit]more[edit] at peace :)

My best regards to you!

runing version 2.77 just want to tell that it is rock stable ;)

but what i will like in next version:

in advanced tab that there is option for suspend device(in pocket and face down) not only screen off

and when i install app(testing a lot of roms) i hate that there are pre-added apps,so i always need to delet them ;)

ChangeScreen 2.77 won't enable

I have a HTC Touch Dual aka Blackstone and CS2.77 will not enable. I set it up, click enable, and then it comes up details or quit. If I hit details it says an exception has been thrown but the class (?) can't be read so no further details are available.

Any ideas?

PS -Will try CS 2.5 .....this had the same error
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] iphoneresister:
I was having a similar problem, and discovered there were duplicates in the list of applications on the "Exceptions" tab. Once I deleted all duplicates so that there was only one entry for each application, I was able to save/enable successfully. Maybe this is you problem also?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Kraize:
Hey, can you repack a new cab with the LargeTitleBar and add an option for muting call on face down? (That should fix problems with topaz and tachi dialer having the after call problem).
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] yogioz:
Enable issue

That worked - I didn't think there were any duplicates but when you import a config it appends the settings rather than overwrite them! Maybe this is something for the next version.....
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Glad to hear that.

Well... you can export your settings to a default file so that when you install on your new ROM all you have to do is reset defaults.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
We'll see... I don't really like messing with the certain apps (cprog for example) because there is more to check for in the code (which wastes more battery and takes more processing power). What do you mean repack a new version with LargeTitleBar?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Yeah. I overlooked that. Sorry dude! Thanks iphoneresister for the help!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] FinalAeon:
I second that :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] benko286:
ok found bug in latest version...

so sometimes it wont save my settings,e.g i add opera to exception,hit save but opera wont rotate, than i look back in exception list and see that there is no opera(same is for other programs)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Right now changeScreen puts the deivce in "Suspend" mode - which is one step above sleep. Putting it to sleep mode cancels out things like WIFI and Music. Version 2.5 put the deivce to sleep and I had so many complaints about it. Anyway - the settings says Screen off but it really means Suspend.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
I'm working on the fix for this now...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] seco10:
Great app!

Is it able to install the new version 2.78 over the former 2.77, or have I to delete the older one before?

LargeTitleBar.dll

Hi Guys,

Just a simple question.Where should i put the largetitlebar.dll to after unzipping it? I guess it's windows folder on my device,isn't it?! But as i try to copy the dll it says that I don't have the permisson or it's being used by another program...

(stopped changescreen for this reason but nothing changed)

anyone an idea???

Thx for a short answer buddies

Ben
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Philip:
You can just install 2.78 and the installation process will remove 2.77 for you (and it will retain all your settings).
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sas1987s:
I had aproblem....

I had the problem after the installation of the program, which in the main screen does not fit inside the screen when the background and change the status of the HTC ?.

How can I fix it??:confused:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] yogioz:
2.78

Just install it - the install process will remove the older version.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Nice!

Someone help? Please? I'd give you my best guess but it might screw you over so lets just wait for someone who actually knows 1st hand. Help anyone?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Thanks for helping out with the answers!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
What do you mean? Your manila is all screwed up when it rotates to landscape mode? If thats it then you need an exception named manila with only the 1st (portrait) box checked. If you meant something else let me know and i'll try again...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] FinalAeon:
But the hardward keys are still active even in suspend mode. When i press the D pad, it'll still lights up. Also does the "Suspend device in pocket" requires darkness? Can I request for an option for "Suspend device in pocket" to be like "Suspend device on face down" where we can uncheck "Only if NO light".

Thanks.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] seco10:
@ Philip and yogioz: Thanks from me too - done and it works... :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sas1987s:
thnxx .... but....

The problem that I reported on it, is the new version, when I rotate the device, the main screen with the clock spins, but not becoming the full width of the screen, remains a bit of black on the right.

What can you do? ? ? ? ? ?

:confused:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] benko286:
still saving does not work.....
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
please explain... I tested everything before I release v2.78 & I was able to export import save defaults and reset defaults all without a problem...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
I see what you mean. Believe me -- I experimented a lot with the power levels and this one was the best suit for the program. It puts it in a low enough state that its not wasting battery and could still play your music and keep your internet connection going...

Version 2.5 put it only one power state lower and it closed the active WIFI connection and stopped playing any/all music.

Actually... to be honest when I tilt my device upside down like its in my pocket and the screen shuts off the only way for me to turn it back on is by pressing the power button - or HOME. Pressing the hardware keys doesn't turn the screen on. They do however still function with the screen off -- I see how that could be annoying...

I'll try to fix it but I think i've exhausted all my options @ this point...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] benko286:
well havent tested export import,but when i add exception(e.g shell32) and i check in which position it will be rotated,and than i press save...i go to start->setttings and it wont rotate screen...than i go back to changescreen exception list and i see that there is no shell32!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] siwibil:
thank you guy....

verry well working....

looking long time for a app like this...

thanks verry much
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Maybe try to reinstall? Or try to manually edit your changeScreen.config file? I can't imagine why this is happening to you. If you want to - export your configuration and upload it here and i'll edit it to include shell32 and send it back to you...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] benko286:
no need to..i was just testing app,soon will update rom and than i will install again changescreen,than if it wouldnt work i will ask for help ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] NIMANAMI1:
tankssssssssss
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] rpersa1:
WTF, I don't get it. It doesn't work as it should... again :mad:

And I cannot retrace, what i've done :(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Sounds good. Let me know...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
No problem...

I don't even remember the exact issue... what was happening to you again?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] orouborus:
installed th v2.78, but i cant make it to go into landscape mode. how do i do it?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] LiKBeAsT:
I do not know if its because i really like this app... But it seems to turn the screen quicker than before. However, even if its just my idea...

Thank you !!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Philip:
Same for me. Using V2.78, I have an Exception set for TomTom so that it should only run in Landscape. However, when I launch it with my Touch HD in portrait, then TomTom starts in portrait, and stays that way until I rotate my Touch HD to landscape - after that, TomTom remains in landscape, even if I rotate my phone.

I'm sure that this was working properly with an earlier version (i.e., TomTom always started in Landscape regardless of the orientation of the phone.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Max_Terrible:
I have a suggestion, if it'll be possible.

Can you make it smoothly slide into another orientation when you rotate the phone?

Something similar to how Opera 9.7 does when you rotate it.

That'll look way awesome :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] slugger69:
Doesn't work accurately on O2 ROM 1.40.207.2

Manila doesn't rotate even if it is removed from the exception List.

Would be wonderful to have the music-tab in landscape.

Any idea?

Greets,

Slugger
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] rpersa1:
Correct. The thing is, it did work on new version, but it doesn't anymore... I'm not shure how did I brake it...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
What exactly are you trying to get to landscape mode?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Well, v2.78 works completely differently than version v2.5 so maybe...

-- Glad you like the app btw
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Sorry for this guys. My Tomtom has never had a problem starting in landscape... The only thing I can possibly think may be the cause is that Tomtom tries to force itself to run in portrait mode (for some reason) - so changeScreen thinks its switched Tomtom to landscape (as soon as tomtom opens) but then tomtom switches itself to portrait.

Now I could be 100% wrong on that too. Do either one of you use the Vibrate before rotation feature? If you do does it ever vibrate when you srart up Tomtom? Again - that is just what came to mind when thinking about what could cause this behavior.

Either way - let me know and I'll dig some more...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Yeah - someone montioned this before (or maybe in another thread). I've thought about doing that for a long time - I just haven't had the time to dedicate to trying to figure out how to get it to work. Believe me - its not as easy as it seems... If I figure something out believe me the changeScreen threads will be the 1st to know about it!

Thanks for the suggestion tho!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Success100:
one of the only issues i haave with this, is that using the full qwerty inside of texts of poutlook...the keyboard has a problem reorienting itself in the correct place. i.e. sometimes if the phone is rotated, while the keyboard is up, the device will put half of the keyboard in the middle of the screen..weird things like that.

Im using a Sprint Diamond on stock rom
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Anyone else experience this? Its never happened to me but I use the Touch pro. Can't really tell how it acts on the Diamond. On the touch pro the Sip dissappears when the device rotates. Maybe I can get it to do that on the Diamond as well... Or maybe even stay open if it is already. I'll def. look into it.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] pastert33:
How would someone compare this to gyrator?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
What do you mean? Check the origional thread Here...

May answer your question...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] arche3:
on diamond when in outlook if I am on compact keyboard when it rotates to landscape it changes to full qwerty

if I rotate the phone back to portrait it will switch back to compact key
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Yeah, this is an OS issue... I'm not sure why this is... maybe the Compact qwerty cannot take up the landscape screen correctly, but I'm pretty sure that the device just does that. Landscape is automatically Full qwerty if your preset is "compact qwerty". Even on the touch pro, same deal, the only option in landscape mode is the Full qwerty or regular keyboard...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] arche3:
I actually think this behavior is how it shuld be. as I think it is a fster way to switch keyboards. and it is logical for a fulll qwerty on landscape, and compact on portrait.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Yes true. Ive actually rarely use the compact keyboard. Only when the device sets it to the compact by accident. But yes it does make sense. Much more room for all the keys when in landscape!

I really wished paypal worked in this country when I first joined this forum upon buying my tytn ii, I really really wished paypal worked when I used touchresponse app and now I am just sad that paypal does not work since this is the app I was dying for.

I wanted my HD in landscape mode, and I had it this way a month but it was not too easy to use since most of the apps were designed to be used in portrait. So I settled portrait mode but deep in my heart I wanted it to rotate for certrain apps like text messaging and RSS readers and now it does.

I wish someone would "feed your son" on my behalf!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] majorassface:
I use gyrator to turn the screen off and put the device in sleep mode when I flip it face down. Can I do things like this with your screen tilt app??
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] CorruptedSanity:
I found a bug.

Lets say im in sms and in landscape mode, when I click a message, it takes me to that message in landscapde mode directly, when I hit the back key it returns me to the list of sms in landscape mode. Excellent.

But when im in SPB Insight looking at all the channels in landscape mode, selecting a channel takes it to the channel in landscapde - where I can see the articles for that particular channel - but hitting back returns me to the channel list but first for a second in portrait then switches to landscape automatically. The same happens when I return back to article list from viewing an article.

I am using my your app in landscape mode strictly for items in the list. I have added sms and spb insight.

Any reason for that? Could it be that I had to add 2 exceptions/menus for spb insight? Meaning I had to add spb insight which allowed me to see all the channels in landscape but then I had to add the "article" exception so I could see article list and article in landscape.

Thanks onace again
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Well I'm not honestly sure. Try using the "Show App Names" button. I determine the exceptions based on the current Window, instead of the current program. The reason for that is that its much quicked than finding the program name and in turn rotates the device faster. Try the "Show App Names" button to see what the window shows that you are saying turn back to portrait for a split second. Let me know the results...

I appreciate the thought in your previous post btw!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
No. Actually that was sort of the reason I made this app - is because a lot of people didn't use those extra features included in Gyrator. Sorry. Just wanted to keep this app as simple and stright forward as possible. Honestly thats one of the features I used with Gyrator too when I first got it but then realised that it took a second to turn off and since my hand was on the device anyway I might as well just press the power button for that.

I don't know, I just felt like Gyrator was too much for what I wanted to accomplish with my touch pro. A great app don't get me wrong but I really didn't need any of the advanced features it offered. So I made changeScreen.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] pistonripper:
Here's one for you...

In WMP, when I flip to landscape mode goto menu > options, and try to change the skin...it flips back to landscape mode...without letting me change the skin...

Its a slight niggle for an otherwise no nonsense app.....great work!:)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 600GOL:
Thanks! I've got an idea to fix this sort of behavior... I'll post an update if/ and when I do
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] CorruptedSanity:
Thats what I did, check app name.

I did this for SPB Insight channel list. Your app said the window name is SPB Insight, ok great added that. Screen rotated in channel list mode. Then upon accessing a channel, say engadget, it would be in portrait, then clicking on an article in the engadget channel would also be in portrait. So I assumed the window name for the article list window and article view window was different and in fact it was. The article list (list of engadget articles) and the article itself window is called Article. I used your app to determine that the article list and article itself windows were called "Article" not "Spb insight". Ok so I added article to the list of exceptions and great the article list and article rotates but backing up from article to article list to channel list first presents it in portrait then rotates to landscape.

Im guessing/assuming its because the window names are different within the program, but then how come going from channel list to article list to article is consistently landscape but the reverse is interrupted by portrait.
