Screen Freezes In Text Messaging??

If I am in the text messaging screen in landscape mode, and close the phone into portrait mode, the screen does not completely rotate.
The top portion of the screen switches, and the bottom menu bar switches, but there is a section about 1/3 the size of the screen that remains in landscape mode until I close the text message program.
It only does it in texting, no other programs cause this problem with the screen, and it has only started doing it since I hard reset the phone.
Any help??

Yeah, texting does some strange stuff for me too. Sometimes when I push the button to select the contact i want to text it takes quite awhile for it to bring up the texting screen. And yes, same as you on the switching from landscape.

hmm.... That's wierd. I cant seem to find anything else relating to this problem

i am having the same problem also.. but recently it stopped.. idk wuts going on?

well, i figured out what the problem was with mine. It was doing it because I hacked the registry for the SIP to completely kill the pop-up keyboard. After re-enabling it, no more screen issue.

someone... disable auto rotate!

is there a way to turn off the auto rotate function when opening and closing the keyboard?
sometimes when im browsing the internet or chatting on aim or even texting, I'm constantly opening and closing the keyboard while the web page is finishing loading or waiting for the other person to reply. The whole screen auto rotate just lags my process while I have to wait for the screen to flip itself.
If someone could, create or know a program that will disable it, please let me know!

There is a program called landscaper but lag is still there! (you may find it in the forum. try)
I also want a solution to cancel auto rotate!

Question - How to stop rotation bug?

Hi guys
Does anyone know if there is a fix for this bug as mentioned on the Gyrator website help page? In fact, does anyone get this bug or just a special few??
Q. When I rotate to any new orientation, the phone application pops up, or the today/manila screen appears?
A. As you'll probably know, orientation is disabled by default on the Diamond, because the HTC developers are either too incompetent, or lazy, to build applications which are orientation aware. As such, strange things happen with either Gyrator rotates the screen, or you use any other application to do the same thing.

Yes, it is a PITA. I'm using a file called "rotator-netxscale-2003-4k-v420". It brings up a box on top of other apps to change the screen around. I have it programmed to the down volume button with AEBplus. The trick is never to switch the screen orientation while in TouchFlo3D. If you start your app first then activate the above program to change the screen it is all good, if you go to the TouchFlo 3D interface...it is not a happy camper. Unlike the normal WM Today Screen, TouchFlo3D Home is allergic to landscape.

I use Gyrator2, and TouchFLO is disabled by default in the settings, preventing it from being re-oriented if the device is turned. If you do a little searching, you'll find more threads that can help you configure Gyrator2 to stop the phone app, including incoming calls, from re-orienting. Plus, you can add any app you want in the settings. One I added was the Bubble Breaker game, which would restart a new game automatically if you turned the phone...

The same thing can also be done with MobileMagic.
Just deny auto rotation to the the apps that do not like
to be rotated or that rotate them self, like Teeter.

Thanks for the info chaps but i think that there is a bug in the system which SOMETIMES pops up the phone or manilla when i rotate an app (opera or tomtom mainly) from portrait to landscape using any method (gyrator, gsen or handymenu). It seems that these apps (phone, manilla) dont like any change of orientation even when they are in the background and opera or tomtom is rotated.
I have changed the gyrator2 .ini file to make no apps rotate except the ones i want to. Not even that works........
Any more help please?

Hmmm, don´t have that Problem. Dunno why, but it works as it should.

Hi, just found a bug using gyrator on my new touch HD when typing a message in landscape mode. The dot (.) and comma (,) are inverted, so trying to type one of them gives the other as a result. Haven't yet tried without gyrator if the keybord gives the same problem, and will post it here later on.
Thanks

[Q] How to switch into landscape?

I read everywhere "landscape" and i can't understand how to change my phone from portrait to landscape.Can someone help me?
Ps.I'm a new here and i don't know as much as you

Landscape mode...
There are only two apps which will switch to landscape automatically on the Diamond (without any additional software), and they are HTC Album and Opera Browser.
I would highly recommend installing this application if you'd like more apps to rotate. I've tried all the available 'screen rotation' apps here at XDA, and in my opinion, it's by far the best to use, and by far the least complicated to set up

If you want to manually rotate the screen, you can download Advanced Config, and set it to show orientation settings. Then after you soft-reset the device, <Rotate Screen> will be in the menu when you go into settings>buttons. Then you can set a button to rotate the screen.
Hope that helps

ok i managed to rotate the screen,but touchflo seems to have a problem so i can't use landscape mode.thank you guys

Rotate on home and call screen

Hello,
I often use the phone in landscape mode in my car. I would like to get the home screen and call screen (displayed when making or receiving a call) to rotate to landscape display. I've noticed that the call screen sometimes rotates to landscape but then very quickly back to portrait. I've managed to get the home screen to rotate to landscape using the rotate hotkey hint and tip. Is there a way of making this behaviour happen by default when the phone is rotated?
Thanks,
James

How did you manage to rotate the home screen ? I know there is a tip using rotate.exe .. but I could not find it.
I would like to rotate everything manually.
Anyway my phone application rotates correctly with no problem. Actually I hate it

I didn't think that you could rotate the current version of Sense (except of course photos & videos and the music tab).
Dr.Sid, if you want manual rotation, give PLToggle a go, in my signature
