Any App for auto-screen rotation

Hey guys is there any app for auto-screen rotatation...thanksss

what exactly did you mean ?
when you rotate the pda ?
or
on a appointed time ?
or
at startup ?

he say when you turn you pda the picture turn ook like in iphone

sorry pals there is no motion sensor on polaris

There is a piece of software GestureTek
There is a piece of software recently devolpped that is able to use the camera to track motions on your device and use this like I-phone to turn screen etc. http://www.gesturetek.org/gesturetekmobile/

link is broken. if u go to just gesturetek.org then u can get to the site. i though for some quick reading believe this isn't for wm. could be wrong though.

Yep it's on dev now, a WM version is available for OEM devs. Hope that HTC will use it in there futur Roms

would be nice but many future devices will have a g sensor built in.

GSen (SKKV Software)

Anyone tried this app on the athena? (as it also has an accelerometer) If so does it work?
http://s-k-tools.com/index.html?m_util.html#gsen
Would be brilliant if it works but my hopes aren't high as I couldn't find anything on the topic.

looks like a nice tool, but after I installed on my Ameo I tried to use GSen Version 1.40.
But a window popup with following message :
cannot connect to GSensor (1)
mhh, doesn't run on Ameo ... and delete it ...
Ameo, t-mobile ROM version 6
btw: I've now asked the developer why GSen is not running on Ameo ... hope I get an answer..

Accelerometer
Hey,
I've installed it on my HTC Advantage X7510 with WM6.! Professional, and I can confirm that it works.
When I'm in the today screen and I turn the PDA it does turn in Landscape and Portrait mode with no problem great at last it works.
Thanks for the link if anybody what's me to try anything please let me known.
Thanks
Gigino

I am happy for you gigino, but I am in the same boat as palmchen (have a X7500 with t-mobile WM6 ROM).
Perhaps the interface to the sensor is slightly different between WM6 and 6.1
I am sure it can't be that difficult to access it from WM6. Hopefully the developer will be able to implement it or give some clue which will assist some brainbox from this community in hacking this version to get working with WM6. In my eyes this is one of those killer apps.

I tried this on wm6.1, and had the same error message.

IMO the answer is simple: it works using HTC VUEFLO .dll. X7510 has those dll, x7500 doesn't!
In AP4 or AP5 it will work

mhh, simple question?
could you please provide the new vueflo.dll for the old devices ?
If it only a dll to change that should be not a problem, or ?
btw: I've asked the developer, but he told me that he is to busy and have no time in the moment to update this programm.

Thanks for this. It is a great find. Works well with my X7510.
This is a must have application for the X7510. It is just amazing.

For some it is a must have. For others, it is an annoyance and irritation.

only because we can't get it working!

Sorry guys, we doesn´t have these devices for testing.
We just was surprised about the info, our tool is working on HTC Advantage X7510.
Also we not know the reason why it is not working on HTC Advantage X7500.
Possible reasons:
- missing/different software driver
- different ROM/ACU version
- missing needed hardware
As i said, we cannot test because of missing hardware.

Not because of that. It was working all right.
I hated this auto rotate thing because 9 out of times the rotate happens against my wish, and it slows my device.
After the initial few minutes of novelty, I was already wanting to switch it off.

Thanks for the info, but I still far prefer assigning rotate screen to a hardware button and just press that when I want to rotate.

No, I don't, there are SOME dll, you can find it in the AP4 / AP5 ROM. I agree, the rotation is too slow and the screen rotation is useless and time consuming 90% of time. My brain is much faster in image rotation and my finger is slower than brain but acts only when needed

mhh, that makes me sadly ...
I would wish it will go faster and will run on my device (german tmobile WM6) ..

Screen rotation is fast on mine. Might be ROM or today screen related in yours.

The speed you can change in settings: #timeout(value) - default value 1000 ms

X7500 (Ameo) with AP4 or AP5
I have tried it, but still I get the message that the gsensor cannot be found.
Edit:
Oeps it just start working. I noticed the veuflo was disabled.

can anyone post those .dll files, so others can use them? thanks

Sky Plus on touch hd

I have the tytn 2 ppc, a while ago i learnt how to operate and control sky plus recordings though wm6, sony sky software and a little java thown in for good measure! problem now is i have the touch hd. i tried to install the sony software i use on the tytn but with no luck, the tytn version would only work using the pull down keyboard but i need to operate it using the onscreen one. can anyone sugest other sky software i should try?

I'm interested in this too. I can programme my Sky+ box from my Hermes and would want to be able to do it if I get an HD.
Anyone?

BUMP - this would be a killer feature for me

[DEV] OpenGL ES Test Application

Hi everyone...
I've been playing around with OpenGL ES, struggling to get it to compile, and eventually succeeding to discover that some of the parameters I set wouldn't work on the Diamond.
I've fixed all of the issues that I know of and now I want to see what devices a little test application will work on.
Hopefully, it should work on all the MSM720X based devices, and anything else that supports OpenGL|ES, that support can either be hardware or software acceleration, so those of you without the more recent devices can give it a shot and see what happens.
You should be presented with a triangle, that you can reorientate with mouse click and drags...
If people could test it out and see what happens, I'd be very happy
It may even lead somewhere!
Tested and verified on:
HTC Touch Diamond
HTC Touch Diamond2
Xperia X1 (sortof...)
HTC Touch HD
HTC Touch Pro

it works perfectly on my HD !

Excellent.
Are the framerates good? (I know there's no display of framerates, but does it feel smooth?)

XDA Diamond Pro
I've tested it on my german O2 XDA Diamond Pro and it works very well and feels very smooth - even with chainfires gfxboost being disabled...

it looks really awesome dude ! it is really fast and the display is smooth

Fast and smooth for me
Did you do it in C++ or Managed Code?

C++. Which is why I had trouble setting it up. Koush's managed API is easier to set up, but slower to run...

Attached is a new version that utilises a wrapper for some OpenGL ES functions, and l3v5yExtendedFunctions for some window creation etc...
It should have comparable frame rates, memory usage etc.
It also utilises the accelerometer of HTC devices, tap the center button (or anything that sends VK_RETURN) do toggle it.
You need to copy both dlls and the exe to your device, then run the exe.

Fast and smooth on my diamond here
and the new version is flickering a bit by fast moves

I don't know, if this has supposed to work on Iolite (different chipset), so i tried it . App even didn't start. It shows usual error with "either it is not signed..."

That probably means your device doesn't have a libGLES_cm.dll file. Which means that by default there's no OpenGL ES support.

Something that may be of interest to people here...
This is a game built off the framework created earlier... Should work on the same devices

Tested all apps on HTC Jade and all run smoothly..

Tested on x1 Test1 in post1 works but freezes for a second here and there.
test2 run but displays hello! and then closes.
and in the coin thread i reported it worked flawlessly on my x1

Kinda odd...
But since the coin works, it may be because of the version of the dlls... No idea why... I'll have a look though!

works ok with topaz

I'll add that to the first post.

ok, just gave it a go. You can edit Your first post - works on xperia. perfect.
umm... sorry. test 2 doesn't work. as above - just brief hello and exits.

Absolutely amazing work!
This is great. I tried the two tests and your coin app on a htc td - they were all perfectly smooth...
Do you think it's possible to add support for 3ds max model files? That would be completely fantastic!
Thank you for your work, I really appreciate it. Now I can show my iPhone friends that my device isn't just a lagging piece of crap..

It'll be because of the lack of accelerometer... My code didn't contain that much error checking... :S

[WEBCAM} Use your HTC HD2 as a webcam ??

Is there any software other than Mobiola that works well with the HD2 ?
Mobiola doesnt work well on Oovoo .. I get all kind of green scanlines in the picture.
Does anyone know a software that actually works and connects using BLUETOOTH ?

There is WebCamera Plus, but doesn't work well either.
Is there any other software that works?

Yeah I tried WebCamera Plus, not the best software =\

I guess we are still waiting for proper tool that works with HD2.

I use qik before it works great on my Xperia..

Did you try it on the HD2 ?

WAtch this for a how-to

not for everyone, and not a single app, but it works.

no but I think it should work fine.

Ahh thanks for the replies guys, but it seems there is no direct software that can connect through bluetooth other than mobiola ?

you have any news?

Bump! This would be useful, does anyone have a solution?

Bump!
Nothing new that has come up?

would love this. please find.

=( i Want to know too

mmh, i never used webcamera plus on my hd2, but on my omnia it worked very well Oo

Nothing happens, its a shame. Softwarecoders sleeping on trees. Since many years there are Phones with intrgrated cameras and wlan and bluetooth, but developers don't think ahead and are not able to calculate 1+1.

rebump. ild love 2 have this.

Hi,
what's wrong with Webcam plus?
i tried it and it worked for me. Ok, there seems to bee a bug if you set to very high resolutions. Than sometimes there is shown only a black windows and i had to restart. Did you get any more failures?

tinyCAM worked on my stock rom but not on my current Energy rom anymore...

Nice app, thanks! However tinyCam is not exactly what's of interest here. The idea is to have a regular USB web camera functionality in HD2, so you can connect it with Skype for example. tinyCam is video server. Ideally it would be great to have a simulation of some generic video camera, so you don't have to install any third party drivers/software.
