Afternoon all,
Does anyone know if the auto screen resize/rotate function can be disabled on the Universal? It sends my GameBoy emulator wonky every time
Also whenever the SD card slot is used, the SD Card autoplays. This is quite a pain with TomTom on the card as it takes a good 40-50 seconds to fully load and exit TomTom. Can this autoplay be disabled?
Any help would be gratefully appreciated.
Thanks
Graham
you can disable the autoplay by renaming or removing the "2577" folder on the SD card.
Thanks for the info. Works a treat, even by just renaming.
Does anyone know if disableing the screen auto-rotate is possible?
Yeah, anyone with the screen rotate solution?
What's the screen rotate problem? I think I have a solution to it... but just fill me in first.

I'm guessing that they don't want the screen to rotate when they move it from laptop mode to PDA mode and vice-versa. Can be a problem with GAPI games and emulators when you need to move the screen out of PDA mode to get at the keyboard. In reality what they probably need is an app to lock the screen in PDA mode since this is what most games are expecting.
Yeah, I made one of those apps once, to prevent screen rotation.
It has some side effects, eg screen doesn't switch off when you close the lid, unless you expressly press power button (since the system doesn't know the lid is being moved around anymore). So I didn't release it.
Could you live with that handicap? Hopefully the app could be toggled, so it wouldn't be an issue.

I wouldn't mind giving it a go, I've been bitten by the screen autorotate a few times myself and needed to soft reset to get control back again.
Hi Vijay555,
Which is the name os that application? I have been looking for it in your site but I was not able to find it :-(
Thanks.
Vijay
Hi Vijay,
I'd love to try this app out. Sounds like exactly what I need.
I'd be very grateful if you could provide a link to it for me.
Thanks
Graham
As I said, I've never released it because I didn't think anyone needed it, it was just some research I was doing on another issue.
However, give me a few days to see if I can pack it into an app.

Thank You
Thanks very much.
Really appreciate it
Wooooow!!
I am eager to test it.
Thanks a lot!

hurray!! is it ready yet? my god I'm crying a very tiny tear because I'm hoping you'll release it and fix my problem...
I have no problem whatsoever pressing power button to turn off screen as I do it automatically to save power...
Yubastard: fortunately I re-wrote it, now it has no side effects, just disables the autorotation.
It's now called VJUzumaki, but it's unreleased. The code was written for someone else, and they have to decide what to do with it. PM me this weekend tho and I'll see if I can send you a beta.

Hi. I crashed my wizard´s display. LCD works, but touchpad is broken. I want to reboot the device and controll it via remote-sw from pc. Does anyone know, how to skip the lcd-configure-process after hard-reset. This is the point where I can´t continue because of the non-working touchpad... Thanks for your help ! Buy the way: Did anyone changed touchpad succesfull ? Has to be brazed !?

Try mymobiler http://www.mymobiler.com/ I am not sure if it will install before while asking to set up the touch pad but it is worth a try. I figured this maybe good because it does not ask to be installed on the device.
Thank you dwertz for your help. I tried, but "mymobiler" can only by installed after finishing the setup process on ppc. mhhh....

Try this.
http://www.codefactory.es/downloads/mobile_speak_pocket/Remote_ScreenAlignment_Manual.doc
connect the device using active sync then use windws explorer and explorer the device ,go into the windows folder on your device and delete the welcome.ink file, then soft reset and it wont bug you again till you hard reset.
you should also check this link out as you can use software to align the screen remotely

i had the same problem with my wizard. i got around pretty much everything, the only thing i can think of that i never figured out how to work with the keyboard is the alarm clocks. other than that with the arrow keys and tab button you should be set.
as far as getting it fixed, i found a replacement touch matrix and replaced it myself. i do not reccommend this as it caused a TON of headaches and still doesn't work right to this day. if i were you try getting a lcd/touch screen combo on ebay, its not too bad to open it and replace it.
I installed Touch commander to try.
After playing with it i removed it.
I found out that when iam using my keyboard text in dropdown boxes doesnt become fisible, i ownly see the border of the drop down box. Also menu's doesnt shop up anymore.
when i dont use the keyboard it does apear

Didn't thought of that jet.
I will try!!
reinstalled it and gave it an softreset after didnt work.
Please don't kill me if this has been posted already, but I have searched and searched and searched.
I installed Manilla 2D and wasn't really feeling it, so I removed it. Well everything works fine except my quickdial pad on my touchflo cube. When I boot the phone I get an error message about the quickdial.exe program, and when I launch the cube, I can see the quickdial pad, but no names appear, and I can't activate it with touch.
Is there a registry tweak to fix this??? Or what can I do?? I REALLY don't want to do a hard reset, but if I do, will it go back to WM6 or will it stay WM6.1?
Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated!
Oh, I have the HTC Touch (Sprint), btw.
same thing happened to me ... i don't recall seeing an error about quickdial though... let me go to war with it and tell you what i find out.
well... tried everything i could think of... replaced Quickdial.exe with another version, tried two other cubes from different versions of the phone... looked through the reg... didn't fix it.
Backup your stuff and do a hard reset. it will go back to the last ROM you instaled.
If it still doesn't work, you nee to re-execute the ROM upgrade utility (RUU)
we'd rather not at this point
Ugh. Doing a hard reset for a simple dial pad makes my head hurt. I'm never installing another app on this phone that messes with the interface. I'll just stick with what it's got until the next phone.
If anyone thinks of another solution, PLEASE let me know. Hard reset is such a pain.

Main reason why i dont want to install Manilla 2D...
Mostly, do not instal BETA if you are not ready to do a hard reset... Or if you don't use an easy backup utility...
Especially when they mention it in the app's tread!
I don't understant why it seems so terrible for you guys to do a hard reset... I just did it with mine: It feels much lighter now!
The Manilla 2D replaces the default quick dial, so the files are altered. It's like trying to install the cube and HTC Home, at least in some instances. The two files conflict, so you'll need to hard reset.
Or, reinstall without the quick dial .cab, and use the customizer to remove the speed dial page.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445052
Have you tried this?? I'll try it on my x1 and let u know if it worked.
i have tried this, but when gettin to step 4 and so on, i got lost, thanks alot for your help!
hey btw is it possible to assin any key to turn to landscape without swapping the keyboard out?
use Spb mobile shell panel, it have an option to do so under tools.
Hope this what u lokking for.
but that only set it, until the keyboard is slide back in, also to set to rotate screen with a soft key, you can do so in the buttons option, but im looking to always keep in the landscape mode, apparently that taskmanger program (link) could do it, but i cant figure it out
