I'm not sure if there's a Gyrator2 topic in here, or if I should post on the Diamond one (I have searched! Honest!)
I can get my HD to go landscape very easily, but going back to portrait I have to tilt it slightly forward over the vertical... Any ideas how I can get it to portrait in a smoother manner?
try to play with gyrator settings to increase sensitivity and so..
Is the G-Sen calibration not proper?
Regards,
Carty..

Hi guys I know in the Pro Raphel it's possible to put the TF3D in landscape by slidng the keyboard...so my question is: It's possible to put the TF3D in landscape in the Diamond too ?
Of course... you can use GSen to turn the screen when viewing any Folder or anything else.. then close it and your TF3D should work in Landscape mode..
but does not look that good because of the scrollbars ;-)

Yes I knew it. But i was meaning a TF3D in landscape mode that can "enter" totally in the screen of diamond...maybe with the tabs on the right side of the screen... can be created something like that ?
Sooo......it's possible ?
Don't know if this could help but, there is a unpdated version of Manila, the "Manila-12348342_18136-package-diamond-raphael".
If it's truly exctracted from the Diamond-Raphael, it should work in landscape mode.

Thanks...but i was thinking at a "REAL" Landscape TF3D. I mean a totally functionally TF3D in landsacpe ....with the tabs on the right side of the diamond's screen. It's possible to do ? also in theory only ?
it would be G-R-E-A-T!!!!!
Hi there!
I have been searching for a solution to this problem for quite some time now but I haven't found a solution... Maybe someone here has an idea?
I want to lock my device in landscape mode! I don't want it to rotate to portrait mode in any circumstance! But I just seem to be unable to do so...
I'm running Duttys 2.6 and disabled flip-it, which got rid of any auto-rotation in manila and most other programs, but two problems remain:
1) Whenever I switch from a program back to TouchFlo (hitting the home-key for example), the display switches back to portrait instead of staying in landscape.
2) Opera always does what it wants and I haven't found any solution that would enable me to disable auto-rotation in Opera.
The second problem is not a biggie... I could live with Opera rotating. But the first one is driving me mad! I always have to rotate the screen again after everytime I visit TouchFlo!
So... Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Not sure if this would work, but why not enable FlipIt and have everything set @ 270 degrees and untick 0 degrees
Other alternatives would be g-sen & gyrator and try and disable 0 degrees or portrait
Obviously certain apps won't work in landscape and aren't designed to so you will always have times when you need portrait
Let me know if this worked

Damn... that's such a smooth solution... and it actually works!
Why on earth didn't I think of this???
Thanks a bunch!
Ok - I'm back with a new request...
I want to be able to rotate the device manually - right now, rotating it manually works flawlessly. I assigned one of the customizable gestures of WkTask to rotate.
But I still have the first problem I have described in my opening post: Whenever I switch back to TF3D or between running apps, my HD switches back to portrait!
Any ideas?
I have searched around the forum but I've only found threads discussing landscape mode with the old manila version - but I'm running Dutty's 3 XT with the new manila!
And ofcourse I would be very thankful for any advice on how to disable rotation in Opera - even though this is not that much of a problem...
maybe if you go into settings of flip-it and goto manila.exe and untick 0degrees and only 270degrees ticked, if you do this with all the apps in the list and put the exe files of other programs you use alot in it manually and also untick 0 and tick 270, then everything should stay in landscape and cant go to portrait. hope this works for you,test it and let us know

Keeping everything in landscape works fine with the solution Fallen Spartan posted - but I want to be able to manually rotate between Landscape and Portrait!
I have searched heaven and hell to find a way to get the D2 running in landscape view, that is for it to switch to landscape view when you rotate the screen. So far I have found apps that allows everything but manilla and its tabs (including home page) run in landscape.
Is there a way to do this?

You can make use of the Topaz drivers itself to do auto-rotation. You do not need to install additional application running in background.
There're some registry editings to be done. Nevertheless, you can use this application to help you enter those into the whitelist. You need to soft-reset after inputting all the applications you'd like to auto rotate.

I tried that, along with changescreen. I still can't bet the tabs screens to rotate. I don't know what I am doing wrong.

Landscape manila for d2 is more annoying then useful, if you tilt the phone past the tilt point either way (portrait or landscape) it will rotate and take at least half a second to change screen, and it enerally takes more to come back to portrait. This makes it difficult to immediately read stuff or accept calls as the screens changing layout and the buttons end up in different places.
Landscape would only be useful on phones like the pro2 and it's previous variants when you need landscape while the keyboards out. Other than that just make your mail programs etc landscape capable.
There are other threads with reg keys and apps to use, just follow those and see if they give you success.
Cheers,
Scott
Graphics from the manila tabs aka TD2 homescreen are not designed for lanfscape view, therefor its like Scott (post #4) sayd, more annoying than usefull.
Thanks a lot guys. I think I see your point. Funny thing is that it was my recently installed S2U app that drove it home. It was annoying as hell when it kept switching to views.
Excuse the silly question but is there a way to put the HD2 in landscape mode permanently? I'm using BsB tweaks but I really hate it when Opera rotates back to portrait and jumps back to the top of the web page every so often. Surely there must be a permanent landscape mode like there was in all previous WM versions?
phone call screen
the worst thingie is when it is landscape mode and u receive or make call..the phone call answearing screen is in portrait mode...and never rotates to landscape.have tried bsb tweaks = no change! must get phone on portrait and then get to landscape to have phone screen on landscape mode. it changes to landscape mode but not automaticly.
so is there any way to make thios to work?
any solutions?...or still noone interested about this issue?
You can disable the phone canvas and use the WM default one or install your own, like PhoneEx.
I would also like to have this option in my HD2. it would be perfect for the time spent in car...
Use a ROM with a Sense version that works in landscape and disable the HTC dialer.
landscape
Change the reg. key
HKLM\System\GDI\Rotation\HideOrientationUI" from "1" to "0"
Then you see in Settings > Screen a radio-buttion for
choosing the format.
But no garanty for nothing with reg.-keys.

....or use Gyrator which will rotate the phone canvas and anything else.

Yeah that seems to be the missing one. Unfortunately it is rotated back by just any screen that doesn't support landscape like the quicklist (=long press power button) and even WM's today screen

Gyrator works fine but that's not what I want. I don't like autorotation and WM should be able to stay in the orientation you tell it to. The problem with autorotation is when viewing a web page while lying down on my side, it flips the HD2 to portrait while I would like it to stay in landscape.
I told you what to do. Try it.
Attached is the .cab to disable HTC's phone canvas. Now you need a ROM with a Sense version that supports landscape (1922, maybe also 2012) and, if you want, you can install another dialer software, like Iconsoft PhoneEx.
Additionally, you can install an application to rotate the screen manually, like this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=347705
That's how I use my HD2 all the time, so I know it works and gets you full landscape, without ever rotating back.
It 'll probably come to installing a custom rom. Haven't done that on this phone yet and I think it's a bad thing that doing that would be necessary. Even more because I know that every unwilling application could just rotate it back. It should be possible to apply the same tweaks the custom landscape rom cooks use on the standard rom, shouldn't it?
No, there is no way to have the landscape enabled Sense version without a custom ROM.

Which custom ROM will make HD2 in permanent landscape (i.e. untill you tell again it to be in portrait) for all and each application which autorotates (some even without physically rotating HD2 like Phone ...)? This does matter a lot for me to get Redfly Mobile Companion working smoothly with HD2. I have applied some background tweaks like HDWall and it made screen in hi-res like it is RealWVGA for HD2 much better to view and get more information on screen, but I am really bugged by this auto-rotate featute of HD2. I have enabled rotation, assigned a button even than it flips to portrait mode whenever I connect Redfly so basically on Redfly's 800x480 landscape screen, I get a 480x800 screen scaled/stretced to 800x480! How weird it is! And when I play video on HTC Album or WMP in full screen it gets to full screen in portrait mode and weirdest it looks! I want this auto-rotation fancy to be stopped and for ever unde user control so once HD2 is put in landscape mode (left/right handed) evrey application follows the set landscape orientation come what may. No more auto-rotate, not even with phone put inro landscape or portrait. So three things required,
(1) Rotation disabled on phone's physical orientation. Let phone be in protrait or landsape mode physically but ONCE disabled screen will not rotate with phone.
(2) Other application which change to portrait mode automatically whatever the phone's physically orientation is (like by default portrait Phone, long preess power button, YouTube etc..) will stop this behaviour and will be forced to phone's assigned or set screen mode. So if phone is set in landscape, no matter what application or phone's physicall orientation be, all such unconrtolled applications will come under full control and will be forced to follow set orientation mode, i.e. landscape if it is set.
(3) Setting of mode in LS or Portrait and left.right hand. Once selected phone stays in that untill it is changed again bypassing all HTC SENSE/MANILA/G-SENSOR and all that stuff.
Anyone please help.
PS. HDWalls v 1.29b from HD Walls v 1.27b enabled landscape on Manila v 2012 and WM 6.5 and have options to creat custom backgrounds, so this does anable landscape in Manila once required Manila patch (V 1.22 or v 1.3) is applied, so it gets Manila in landscape but above auto-rotation still remains, it is not able to put device in permanent landscape mode for all and each application.
I apologise for asking a question that appears to have been asked alot, but I have been unable to find a definitive answer for my query after searching through the forums.
As I'm sure some of you have discovered with some landscape cabs, it can screw up the wonderous features of music and photo screens. So what I am looking for is a landscape cab that only manipulates the homescreen itself.
The closest thing I found was the Elegance Theme which unfortuantely forced me to hard reset my unit.
Does such a cab exist?
Cheers
I'm interested too because my previous device (HTC TP2) was able to show the homescreen in landscape modus.
Well i've managed to fudge the dialler to go landscape when handset is rotated.
But if handset is already in landscape position and i open the dialler it goes portrait and i have to move handset to portrait and back to get landscape view.
Rather frustrating when i'm driving!
Can anyone please shine any light on the homescreen issue or indeed how to get the dialler to open in landscape view when handset is in landscape position?
Update: For some reason dialler now recognises landscape view and opens in right orientation (having not changed a thing).

Thanks for you post MalekoUk, however as stated in the 1st post of this thread there are cabs out there that screw the features of the photo album and music screens, and your suggestion is one of them.
to fix the music and image tabs after installing your landscape cab
edit reg:
HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila
EnableFullscreen from 0 to 1
then with BsB tweaks (menu/Rotation) remove SENSE-manila
then you can use change screen the make manila rotate the other way so left for normal music player and rotate right for the tweaked way
thats what i do
ok i just worked out that you dont have to install a cab all you have to do is
make a string reg in HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila called EnableLandscape and set it to true and you have landscape that easy
splder. ur trick didnt work for me
