This must be a bug?
I swap to landscape mode using display settings.
All is well until I open and close the keyboard. It swaps BACK to portrait mode and even sets display-settings back to portrait!!
So there's no way for me to setup the device to stay landscape all the time and use the keyboard :/
Someone tell me there's a hack to fix this weird behaviour?
I want to set my screen as portrait, but as I do this, the phone keeps going back to landscape.
It's really irritating me as I prefer viewing the phone in portrait.
It changes straight back to landscape once the phone goes to power saving mode or if I close the phone and reopen it, it's straight back to landscape again!
I tried 2 different roms, same problem, any ideas??
Thanks
What is the setting in the folder "settings/Screen" is it set to portrait or landscape as default?
The screen settings is set at portrait but keeps changing back to landscape...
Hi everyone, been using this site for years but rarely post Just flashed my Touch HD to Win 6.5 but now it no longer auto switches between portrait and landscape when you tip it. The G sensor in settings seems to be working OK.
Any ideas?
TC,
Install changeScreen or Flipit. Use the search button.
Good day.
Hi, guys!!!
In Iolite there isn't option to change screen to portrait and landscape screen mode. So, I decided to write a small tool to do it. Hope it useful for someone.

anyone try this??????????????
I didn't, as i don't really see the point...
There is an option in the settings just for that (at least in custom roms).
If you have a stock rom, then it should be useful...

This is neither true, a little registry modify is sufficient, but:
I tried it, it doesn't work, in a first moment it change portrait to landscape but, when you close the app, display come back to portrait it's unhelpful

Some app can't be displayed in landscape mode (for instance manila). If you close this program and then it's manila run, screen mode will become portrait. It's happening with phone, that have option to change screen mode (i checked it).
If you run apps, that can be displayed in landscape mode (windows media player, file explorer...), you can then run this program, change to landscape mode, close program. You'll see that screen mode will remain landscape mode.
ok, but is too work... after registry modify, you can to associate "rotate screen" function to an hardware button, I do it with long press "green horn", thus, I can change portrait to landscape and vice versa in every moment I want...
I have just found out how to enable option to change between landscape and portrait screen mode. I will include it in my next ROM
Best regards!!!
I've been fiddling with this device for a little bit now, and cant seem to figure this out.
I want to send text messages with the keyboard in landscape mode, but cant figure out how.
Only option i found is the rotate screen option, but as soon as i use the phone, it goes back to portrait. Any way to make the phone STAY in landscape mode, or automatically switch to landscape mode when i reply to a text message?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
strange
it's strange, in WM6.1 and WM 6.5 it is automatically enabled. Are you sure you didn't change some settings somewhere. Also found the manually pun in landscape, but goes back to portrait, but that's only in TouchFlo menu.
it happened to me too at first, then I used G-config to make it works, if that doesn't work, try edit the registry yourself. I tried the TD2 tools but that doesn't seem to work with my phone. It keeps going back to portrait and sometime left the images on the screen and eventually the whole thing just crashed.
