Hello

i have a omnia II

we have to have in the startup folder the AutoRotation.lnk???

because i dont have it and i install the last beta version and it doesnt work
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] |Yoghurt:
Program Works fine on HTC Touch Pro 2 with WM 6.5.

There is only one problem. The AutoRotation doesn't find al programs installed on my phone.

Nice job !
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] junalmeida:
Hi!

Thanks for your feedback.

Please, check the user guide. My app shows only running programs.

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] clement_sg:
Strange, it does not run on my Omnia2.. Any advice? My ROM has .Net 3.5 cooked but I installed .Net 2.0 and used netcfcfg to set this app to use .Net 2.0

http://www.modaco.com/content/windows-mobile-news/265615/how-to-install-and-use-net-compact-framework-3-5-without-upgrading-your-rom/

I like to add that I am using 6.5.3 JE3 English Lite ROM.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] junalmeida:
I guess that this has nothing to do with .net version. but i will check and make a patch.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] junalmeida:
Beta testers, pls check the latest cab ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] junalmeida:
Can you see and add apps on its list?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] RuffioDK:
Hi I just tried with Garmin on my Blackstone without any problems. I also tried CorePlayer and that one didn't rotatet but I think that is specifically for that app and has nothing to do with your App.

Very nice and easy to use application. I recommend that you update the icon to a more high quality one as it would suite the app. better as all other graphics are nice.

Tell me if there you have any other things to test.

Keep up the good work ;-)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] toadlife:
Works perfectly on my Touch Pro 2 (running my ROM).

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] clement_sg:
I can run 1.2b2 now, thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sirphunkee:
Works great on the T-Mobile HD2 as well! Thanks junalmeida!!

No Luck

I just installed the software, added the apps and restart my phone but my apps still dont rotate. What am i doing wrong here? The only apps who rotate are the one that were like that when i purchased the phone.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] leepriestenator:
This looks quite attractive

Is this like BSB Tweaks and G-Config which edit the Whitelist and ModuleNames under

HKCU \ Software \ HTC \ HTCSensor

?

I also noticed that you mentioned it only shows currently loaded apps that have rotation enabled. I don't exactly understand the purpose of that.

Hope you can elaborate.

One more thing that you could look into, if possible; enabling Clockwise rotation of the device (for LEO). Currently it only rotates in one direction (Anti-Clockwise).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] thesecondsfade:
I know this app is using the built-in rotation registry entries and I don't think Windows Mobile supports it, but is it possible to enable auto-rotation in both left and right-handed mode (90 and 270 degrees)? I can use ChangeScreen or Gyrator but I'd rather not have a program running in the background all the time.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jsmccabe78:
great job!

works well on tmous hd2, stock rom.

one glitch - added in the start menu and desktop. start menu does not work (nothing occurs with rotation.) desktop (aka home page?) turns black when rotated.

but overall very nice and lighter than other rotation software out there.

thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Sylux:
Umm last time i had to fac reset my htc hd2 cause i had something similar to rotate some things that should be rotated, in fact all it did is screw up the reg on my phone and since i do not have reg editor i couldn't fix it :/. although hopefully it will rotate some things and not freeze up(cause its what happens usually when you try to rotate something.)

Well i will to use this app and hopefully not come up with any bugs or freezes.

(note i have a htc hd2 running on stock t-mo 2.13 rom, and will report bugs if they show up.)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ahkow:
Does it rotate Excel spreadsheet?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] thethirdhalf:
I have a Samsung Omnia II (Official, Bell). The app fails to start, giving the following error: "SAMSUNG GT-I8000L is not supported by this application." It should be virtually identical to the Samsung GT-I8000. Any chance support could be added?

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jsmccabe78:
you could just try it....:p

but, yes it does. quite nicely.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JimSmith94:
I tried this program to auto rotate Garmin Mobile XT, but it didn't work. Garmin shows up in the list, but the entries for Whitelist and ModuleNames don't look right to me:

HTCSENSOR\GSensor\ModuleName\Garmin Mobile XT = \Garmin\Que.exe

HTCSENSOR\GSensor\Whitelist\Garmin Mobile XT = QUE_SUBAPP_WND_CLASS

Please help!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] summoner:
Any chance of B7610 to be supported?

--summoner
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Cinderella17:
Thanx You so Much!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JimSmith94:
Sorry to quote my own post, but from another forum, I found that this program didn't turn AutoRotation on. The above registry entries are correct, but I also made this registry change and Garmin now rotates for me:

"HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor"

Change AutoRotation value from 0 to 1.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] RolandCruise:
Word documents rotation

Very nice and useful app, junalmeida!

I am trying it on my HD2 and it works very good. I just don't understand why it doesn't rotate my word documents. It enables the rotation of the pocket word first page (the one from wich you can choose the document to open...) but then it doesn't rotate the document I open...any help?

Thank you ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kaishuu:
Hi. I tried to install it on GT-I8000L (IJ checked), but it didn't work.

Can you make it functional?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] NYLimited:
Beta 2 issues

I tried the latest beta on a US HD2. Looks good but I found a couple of problems. I trust the first one you can correct easily.

This has already been mentioned in this thread but your app does not turn on the autorotate registry entry (set to a value of 1 decimal):

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor:AutoRotation=1

Rotation does not work without this it seems. Once I manually modified the registry entry the rotation worked.

Second I found a small anomaly which I am not sure you can fix. Resco Explorer has some add-on modules, such as the Resco Registry module. Your app sees them both as the same although with a different name since Resco simply uses a command line switch to differentiate the two. Take a look at the registry image attached below. The key is:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\ModuleName:Registry Editor
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\ModuleName:Resco Explorer 2010

and the value for both is set to "\Storage Card\Program Files\Resco Explorer\Explorer.exe". But the registry editor should have "\Storage Card\Program Files\Resco Explorer\Explorer.exe -registry" in order for it to invoke the correct function. I am not sure if you can find this info from a running process unless you can query the command line that executed it.

Good luck and thanks for sharing!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] junalmeida:
Hi, kaishuu

Did you see any error message? Are you using an original ROM? This version is functional for me, as I have the same device as yours.

What program are you trying to rotate? Are you able to add it to the list?

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] junalmeida:
Hi,

I will consider the AutoRotation key for the next release.

About the Resco, what version are you using?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] thethirdhalf:
That's the original ROM, Windows Mobile 6.5.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] junalmeida:
Please, check the latest 1.2 version
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] NYLimited:
Resco Explorer 2010 v8.0.

The Registry explorer module is a plugin they supply, installed in addition to the main code.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] junalmeida:
But which of them rotates: Resco Explorer or Resco Registry?

Are you able to change the registry manually? If so, do it, and tell me the right setup that does the work.

:confused: :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] NYLimited:
Sorry, I will try to be more clear. :o

Only the file explorer will rotate.

Yes, the command line can be manually changed/corrected.

Both functions, the file explorer and the registry editor, get the value "\Storage Card\Program Files\Resco Explorer\Explorer.exe" in the registry as inserted by your app.

If this string is executed the file explorer will run.

I can manually edit the registry and change the command line for the reg editor to "\Storage Card\Program Files\Resco Explorer\Explorer.exe -registry". Note the added " -registry" command line switch. With this additional switch on the command line Resco will execute the addon to explore and modify the registry instead of the file explorer.

So, the command line inserted by your app launches only the file explorer.

Manually modifying the command line for the registry explorer will launch the correct module.

With the two changes made (the autorotate=1 and the command line change) both apps rotate as expected! I do not know exactly how all this works or why but it does! :confused:

Thanks for your effort and patience!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] junalmeida:
I will investigate if I can discover the command line of a process.

BTW, the latest version (1.2) already sets AutoRotation to 1 (after making any changes to the list).

:)

Thanks for your feedback.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] NYLimited:
TMOUS HD2

Sorry it took me a long time to do this. The new version is working perfect on my HD2.

Here's what I did:

I installed your new version.

Manually changed autorotate to 0.

Manually removed all Resco rotation keys.

Soft reset.

Ran your app and verified that it changed autorotation to 1.

Added Resco registry prog to rotation.

Soft reset.

Confirmed that registry program rotated as expected. I have no idea why but it works now!

Added Resco file explorer to rotation list with your app.

Soft reset.

Confirmed that BOTH Resco programs now rotate as expected!

Very well done and very fast response - THANK YOU!!!

When I upgrade the ROM to Duttys I will test it again and let you know.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] thethirdhalf:
Thanks; it now launches and lists all running apps, and I can add them. However, they don't rotate. Any ideas? My Omnia II has .NET 3.5 listed; does this application require 2.0 to be explicitly installed?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] junalmeida:
Does it show any message after you tap "OK"?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] thethirdhalf:
Yep, as the change log indicates it prompts for a soft-reset, saying, "Your changes may be applied after a soft-reset. If not, your phone's built-in g-sensor is disabled." I have reset the device since adding apps.

Also, the sensor does work for the default enabled samsung apps (such as the camera).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] junalmeida:
That means that you are using a custom ROM (or an old WM 6.1 ROM) that does not have samsung built in auto-rotate service. Please check the pre-requisites.

Camera and Opera rotates itselfs without the samsung service.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] thethirdhalf:
No, as I said, it's Windows Mobile 6.5, on a GT-I8000L, factory ROM. Perhaps the auto-rotate service doesn't come with the GT-I8000L then.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] junalmeida:
Hmm, i don't think so, as my device is the 'L' one.

Check if you have RotationSupport.exe on /windows folder and a link to it on /windows/startup. If not, check this post.

You can also try the semi-official Roms from samsung-firmwares.com
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] thethirdhalf:
I don't see RotationSupport.exe, so I'll follow your directions when I get a chance. Thanks for the help!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rflmnz:
Massa! Parabéns ai compatriota!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SidexQX:
My HD2 hide the desktop and terribly inhibited .. Another screen lock does not work, the device is locked, and unlock no longer available. Fades button!

// How to reset registry, after using the program? What would make as it was?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] spawnpr:
Works great on stock Tilt 2 (TP2).

Any possible way I can add S2U2? Since I have to unlock (stop) S2U2 to use phone, I cant add from the running programs list. Maybe you can add function to "Browse" for the .exe or showing all installed programs not just the running.

Also, rotation to both clockwise and counterclockwise will be awesome, however it just could be HTC because of the keyboard.

Either way Great App!!

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] manbat:
Working fine on VZW TP2.....

Working fine on VZW TP2.....Mr. X fixed ROM/Sense 2.5. Is there any way to stop the rotation of the "Dialer Screen". I had been using 'changeScreen" and could exclude things. The Dialer rotates even though not added with your app? Most things associated with Sense now rotate without being added.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] athmoss:
On a touch diamond (original 6.1 rom) i get this error message: "Built-in rotation support was not found on this device". The diamond has a g-sensor, would it be possible to make this app run on it?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] junalmeida:
Hi, sorry, i cant understand your problem.

But you still can open my app and remove the things that you've added.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] junalmeida:
I will investigate a way to add S2U2 to the list, but browsing the exe will not work, since the htc sdk uses the window class name.

Rotation to both angles was disabled by HTC on the latest releases.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] junalmeida:
Hi, my app supports only the newest htc sdk (Leo, Tilt), so, not all devices are supported yet.

Altough, you can try to update to a custom ROM with latest sdk and WinMo 6.5.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jabberoo:
Greetings and a sincere well done.

I had been using ChangeScreen to rotate my apps but found that it did not auto start 85% of the time (which was a drag).

Your app looks very promising, however, the rotate left AND right is an issue.

I appreciate your comment ("Rotation to both angles was disabled by HTC on the latest releases"), but is there any way to get past this...?

Having it rotate both ways seems to be a logical progression.

To me, it would seem a no-brainer for WinMo to include a standard Rotator as part of Windows Mobile, but it seems they do not consider real usabilty to be worth bothering about...

Anyway, thx for all your efforts, continuing to test on my W6.5 TP2.

Cheers to all

Jabberoo
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] woodrow_hills:
Hi

I appear to be having the same issue now with Omnia ll, WM6.5 original rom. Previously it was okay when 1.2-beta2 cab was installed though the applications does not auto-rotate all the times.

Appreciate your advise on what the problem could be.

Thank you

Regards

woodrow
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] WendyR:
I too have an HD2 and overall it works very well. I am experiencing this same effect. In both Excel and Word. Whichever screen I am on when I add the program to AutoRotate it only seems to pick up the file selector list not the main app itself. I have upgraded to Pocket Office 2010 if that matters. I haven't yet tested with the rest of the Office suite.

I also have Resco File Explorer and Resco Registry editor and rotation only takes effect in File Explorer.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] HRQ.SLV:
Works very well with TP2!

Obrigadão, trabalho excelente!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SidexQX:
My device hangs after boot. But if you do not let him go to sleep immediately after the start, all okay ... Removing an application does not resolve the problem, only manual editing the registry partially solved the problem (AutoRotation = 1 on AutoRotation = 0), but some applications have ceased to rotate .. What registry keys change your program? I want to restore defaults ...

P.S. Sorry for my english
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] spawnpr:
I have notice this effect with Windows Live and Palringo, which are chat programs. It seems when a new or pop-up window, the new window doesn't rotate disabling rotation for the program.

Both, Windows Live and Palringo are on the auto-rotate list and they rotate until a new windows is on, after that these programs don't rotate even when I close the new window.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] junalmeida:
My app manages only this node on HTC devices:

HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor

But if it hangs, maybe thats a problem with your ROM or with your device. Try to do a wipe. A wipe will also restore the defaults.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] junalmeida:
One thing I have notice is that some apps have different windows.

So, to rotate palringo and word documents, you need to add them on my app after opening a chat window and a document. AFAIK, this is a limitation on HTC SDK, but I will investigate that.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] spawnpr:
These method worked fine for Palringo but not for Word or Windows Live, could these app be programmed to rotate only when keyboard is open. When I open the kb they rotate fine, app might be looking at some settings from the kb
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FABIO MARUJO:
Junalmeida

Grande, valeu muito bom.

Estou usando AutoRotate-1.2-beta2.CAB para o meu HTC HD2.Você recomenda a versão AutoRotate-1.2-beta.CAB?

Great, thanks very good.

I'm using autorotate-1.2-beta2.CAB for my HTC HD2.

You recommends version autorotate-1.2-beta.CAB?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] junalmeida:
Hi!

My app does not control the auto-rotation feature. This is done by HTC or Samsung native libraries. My app only adds or removes apps on device's whitelist.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] junalmeida:
Hi, i recommend you to use always the latest version. At this time, use this version: AutoRotate-1.2.

Its no longer on beta.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SidexQX:
How to restore only this registry branch? It is not possible to do hard-reset ... Which of the default registry settings for this branch? Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] junalmeida:
Ask someone that have the same device and ROM to export this branch. So you can delete it and re-import the defaults. But I guess that this has nothing to do with the problem you are facing.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SidexQX:
After removing the program hangs continued until changed (AutoRotation = 1 to AutoRotation = 0). But work stopped turning in other programs ...

In what may be the problem? Your program only changes this registry branch, and nothing more?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] junalmeida:
Yep, it changes ONLY this branch, setting AutoRotation to 1 (that enables HTC's autorotation control). If you add or remove any software on the list, my app adds it to the whitelist on this branch. Nothing more.

So, maybe you are facing a hardware problem with g-sensor, or a software problem with htc rotation control. If its a software problem, a hard-reset may solve it. Backup your data and try it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SidexQX:
Perhaps the problem is established program Co0kie's Home Tab v1.8.5 (url)

AutoRotation = 1 is the default value?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] junalmeida:
yes, 1 is the default.

Also, I don't recommend you to add "Desktop" or "Start" to the list, since CoOkie is not a stock app and AFAIK it does not support landscape.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SidexQX:
Added applications can not cause conflicts? I have not added anything except QIP (qip.ru) screenshot included)))
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] spawnpr:
OK, maybe adding an argument to the registry or some settings telling the app that the keyboard is open, but it might not work for all devices

Just an idea
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] hjna:
Thanks you for nice program. Works very well on my HD2. Is it possible to get it to tilt to the right?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mcatalao:
Hey, great App.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jjollyroger:
hi, I report that on my device ,since I installed Auto-Rotate Config some apps got the autorotation also if I did not add them to the apps list and they're not already listed

EDIT: I found out that is caused by activating autorotation for ereader Freda
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] RolandCruise:
I've found the problem...tgis happens because the app miss to add a second registry value for some apps that have two different windows to rotate.

For example, pocket word needs this string value too (I added it this way):

HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\WhiteList\Word Mobile 2 : "WordPad"

the first one we all should already have is this:

HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\WhiteList\Word Mobile : "Pocket Word"

We should already have under ModuleName this value too:

HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\ModuleName\Pocket Word : "\\Windows\pword.exe"

To rotate excel mobile, I added this value:

HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\WhiteList\Excel Mobile : "BOOKWIN"

P.s.: This is what I've done to make this apps rotate, but I think I should remember to pay a lot of attention when modifying the registry and to do this only if knowing what it's beeing modified. The risk is a hardreset... ;)

I've downloaded a lot of stuff from here for my HD2, but this is my first post. I just want to say thank you soooo much to RolandCruise for the reg entries to get Word and Excel rotating. This auto-rotate program works great for me, except for these 2 programs. Never found anything that worked until I found your post. Thanks again!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] omni8000:
I' ve been lookin for this quite long.

Congratulations junalmeida, for the application.

I don't install many applications to my Omnia 2, cause it has many by default.

Before i Install auto rotation, i' d like your advice, so i dont do something wrong.

First i have

PDA I8000NXXJD3

CSC I8000EURJD5

PHONE I8000XXJD1

WinMo 6.5 pro

CE 5.2.23103 (internal 23103.5.33)

I suppose that my device is ok for your app, isn't it?

I have RotationSupport.exe on /windows, but i dont see any link in windows/start menu/programs (or start menu/settings - settings is empty).

Should i make one short cut, or not?

After i install it, do i restart my device?

Can i add the first screen (samsung today) to autorotate and how?

Same with the windows screen (the one with the programs when i push the win button i mean)?

Thank you again

P.S.

My phone is functioning with greek language. I dont think that thi cause problem eh?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] junalmeida:
Hi omni8000,

Yes, it seems to meet the requirements.

No, you don't need to create any manual links. Keep things as is. After installing the app, you will see a link on your start menu or samsung main menu.

Samsung devices that meet requirements does not need to be restarted. But if so, the app will tell you.

You will see an item called "DESKTOP" on the Add button of Auto-Rotate. Just add the desktop to the list and tap OK.

Note: Not all Today Items support rotation (e.g HTC Manilla). I'm not totally sure that Samsung Widgets support it, but I guess that it will. I'm using Windows Default as today screen and I can confirm that it supports auto-rotation.

Regards.

:)
