hello guys,
on my HTC Wizard if you press the center key of the d-pad (joystick) along with the Message key (Calendar key in different PocketPCs), it takes you directly to the Align Screen page, where you have to align your screen.
when using MorphGear, i like to hold my Wizard in landscape mode and use the d-pad with my left hand and use the Message button as 'A' and Explorer button as 'B', So during my gameplay i'm accidentally opening the 'Align Screen' page, which i cannot bypass except after going through the alignment process.
it's a pain, and it's ruining my gameplay experience.
i searched around and couldn't find a quick solution to the problem, that's why i posted here hoping that a hacker will help me.
thanks,
This is old, but wondering about the same thing. at least I searched

While playing the most excellent "1942", I discovered that simultaneously pressing the D-pad in and the top right button (calender) launches the "Align Screen" app. Does anyone know how to unmap this keypress combo from the Align Screen thingummy. It makes arcade gaming quite frustrating - every time I get to a tricky bit, and start pressing keys wildly, the game is interrupted.
There are other threads about disabling the screen alignment process altogether (e.g. on startup). I DON'T want to do that! Just remove the shortcut.
I have the same problem, any info would be much appreciated.
Thanks
i also want to do that and would appreciate help.
Unfortunately I could not replicate your problem,is this happening only while you are playing the game or into Today screen too?
What OS are you using?
Actually I am using Wm5 and this 'bug' is not present.
what WM5 device are you using?

Any help PLEASE!!
Has anyone of you gurus encountered problems with the Align Screen Hotkey combination yet?
Pressing both the envelope button (left above the screen or keynumber 0xc1) and the select button (0x86) inside the 4-way directional button (0x86) activates the 'Align Screen' tool.
I recently installed Pocket SNES and i've assigned many buttons to the emulator. While playing and by (accidentally) pressing the 2 buttons simultaniously, the Align Screen tool pops up, resulting in a situation where i can't close any of the 2 apps anymore.
A soft reset is the only way to recover from this situation.
Does anyone know if there is a way to disable or to remap the Align Screen Hotkey combination?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Mike
From HTC Wizard wiki here
Quickly align screen: Press and hold "d-pad" button and press "Messaging" button
Works, easy and fast
Nice find!
Makes me wonder how many other quasi-undocumented key combinations are out there...
I start searching the buttons because a simple hypotesis: if my screen alignment will be completely scrambled, should be something hardware coded to call the procedure... or not?
MS programmers aren't soo bad...
Well, I'm searching around and I give up, time to ask the "Pros".
I have a 8125 and the only thing I dont like or cant fix, HOW do I turn off the align screen HOTKEY. When i'm playing a game and using the "control pad" (the outside pad with the button in the middle) I will be getting heavy hitting buttons and soon as I hit the "Message" key with that Center button...
BOOM!!!! "Align Screen" comes up and I have to align the screen and continue the game. As for remapping the buttons in the game, I could do this but prefer the 2 i'm using.
Anyone who can give me a quick fix for this...You got me beat.
Thanks for the read, and thanks for this great site.

P.S. I'm using Faria's Rom Crossbow reloaded 1.5 by Mfrazz.
Could be a BUG in the ROM or even in the GAME PROGRAMMING.
I use the D pad all the time to play games but never got the ALIGN SCREEN ... !
Does it happen only in a particular game or in general?
no it can be done anytime
if you hold down the d pad center button and hit the outside corner key with the envelope mail logo...you will pull up the align screen. its a hotkey setup..no bug I just want to remap this or get rid of it all together.
stil nothin?
bah was hoping someone would have an answer for this....still trying to find out how. anyone?
Hi all, uhm I'm having a little problem with my X1.
I can't assign any buttons anymore in settings -> Buttons
I can actually ASSIGN the left key or right key, but it will reset back to old settings when I do that. Now I have assigned:
Left key: turn screen
right key: today screen
And I also now see 4 options named ''knop'' (Buttons), but I think they didn't used to be there in the first place.
Anyway, whenever I change the right or left key (mostly the right key because I'm very happy with the turn screen assigning) to another option. And press 'ok', the button will(!) get that new option. But whenever I restart the device (or I guess even when time will last) the right button will reset to the 'today-screen' setting.
I don't know how all this could have happen, but I think I installed something wrong. I did install TF3D hd (manilla) as a panel. And after that more programs, I guess somewhere in that time this button assignment setting got cracked up :S
Is there anyway to get rid of the 4 ''knoppen'' (buttons) and be able to change the left and right key properly again?
Regards and many thanks to the one(s) being able to help me!
It's the Touch Flo software which restores the softkeys, a search would have solved this for you.
Thanks for your reply.
So you're saying that if I uninstall Touchflo3D from my X1, I will get my normal settings back without difficulties?
Regards
