Opera rotation - HD2 General

Hello!
I have noticed that when I flip HD2 to the left(button on the right), Opera rotates very nice. However, when I flip it to the right, nothing happens.
Any ideas how to fix it?

On rotating Screen Opera Apperes

On rotating Screen Opera shows if running in background.
Has anyone else had the problem of Opera becoming the front running program when the screen is rotated?
I just updated the rom to I-mate 1.30.68. It was not doing it before.
There is a post about this happening on the Opera forum
http://my.opera.com/community/forums/topic.dml?id=129067&t=1143473662&page=1#comment1501184
But this is on a PPC6700 with slide out keyboard.
Does anyone know how to stop it from happening?

Motion Sensor in all apps

Is there any way to make the motion sensor working in all applications?
I really would like the screen to be turned also in the acrobat reader for example...
Gsensor is the solution....
The GSen is indeed a good app to do the trick on the HD. Take a look here (also to download):

I guess there will be more apps for it, but don't know them yet.

Gyrator 2
Some say it's better.

Exactly what I was looking for!
Thanks!
On my HD I cannot have Gsen launch at startup as I get an error message about it not being able to access the G-sensor.
I have to wait for TF3D to load and then load it manually. Not a biggie but a niggle - but less of a niggle than not having my screen reorient as I need it.

Yes, it is. More flexible, comfortable und stable.
Is there a way to get Gyrator to autostart?
Another thing is that when I push the -close all programms- button. It closes Gyrator as well. Is there a way to keep Gyrator running on the background?
Auto start and stop it closing
I couldn't get on with GSEN and had similar problems launching gyrator at start up....
so I wrote the simplest Mortscript....and attached it.
Just edit the script (if your Gyrator is intalled elsewehere, otherwise leave it), and copy a shortcut to the script to your startup folder.
Change the delay time till it fits for you.
You'll also need to download and install mortscript, but it's extremely useful & free!
see http://www.sto-helit.de/index.php?module=page&entry=ms_overview&action=view
As for stopping it closing, click the tools (the spanners) in the HTC task drop down (where you go to close all apps) and set gyrator2 to exclusive.
Job done
Both apps work fine for me.
The only problem I have is within opera.
If I turn the screen, then opera turns, but then in the next second it turns back to portrait.
Opera is excluded from doing anything in both apps.
(Off course I only use one app at the time)
Any help for that?
no problem with opera here, using gyrator. turns screen in every direction i turn the device, except upside down.
gyrator works fine, although if you lock the device it will rotate your today screen as well. a bit annoying when the device is in your pocket the wrong way, answering a phonecall is kind of a challenge.
Still the same problem:
Using gyrator with the default settings, my Opera Browser first rotates to landscape when turning the device to landscape as it should.
Then after 2-3sec it rotates back to portrait even if the device is still holded in landscape.
Any idea?

Well Opera can be rotated with the motion sensor by default, try adding it in the Gyrator exceptions.

It is in the exceptions by default.
No help with that!
Hello
I tested both and Gyrator 2 is better as GSEN
More reactive

I have the same problem!
Any solution yet?
Gyrator 2 was working fine but now I have a strange problem with it. After a softreset everything works as should, but for some reason after a little while whenever I turn the device in lanscape the creen reverts back to the TF3D tab in portrait that I had last used. Is it a setting that does this? When I disable gyrator 2 everything is fine, but then not everything rotates as I would like it to.
I have added two execptions to the standard ones, the today screen and the incoming call screen.
If anybody know an answer or has (had) the same problem I'd appreciate a fix/solution.
thanks!
Or MobileMagic:

Which does not have issues with Opera...
And allows also to force apps to certain rotations....
But every app has its pros and cons...
Being a Newbie to winmob (formerly UIQ3) I am finding that Gens is OK on mosts screens but not on Home Page and the other TouchFlo screens. Am I doing something wrong - or probably stupid?
I was having lots of problems with all my apps. They seemed to only rotate sometimes, and I couldn't have the device even slightly flat or the rotation wouldn't occur.
I just was playing around with gyrator 2, went into edit event for (disabled) opera, orientation and checked all but the last two options and hit apply.
Opera is still showing as disabled, but what a difference!
Rotates really quickly, and when almost flat as well!

Opera Fullscreen Zoom Bar on Touch HD

Hi, i Have had my touch hd for about a week now. Last night i noticed that the above was missing from the opera web browser. im unable to zoom in because there is nothing in the bottom left hand corner for me to press on.
anybody have any idea where it may have run off too and any setting that my restore it.
A soft reset doesn't do the trick.
thanks.
P.S Great forum,i came about it by pure chance, glad i did too.
Up! I'm looking for a tweak too.

I think HTC had intentionally rotate back to portrait mode because TF3D does not support landscape mode.
try to install MobileMagic, enable Free Rotation then try rotating in the Program menu of WM, then u'll see if theres a Problem with Opera or the system itself. Maybe it works if the rotation is handled with Mobilemagic.

Have you installed any kind of topbar icons? That's the number 1 reason for Opera crashing with rotation. Try uninstalling the topbar and see if it helps.
Thats the fault, I had installed a new flashy topbar, which looked cool, but interferred with my ability to change rotation of programs.
I uninstalled the topbar, and it works fine.. Just gotta decide if I want a flashy topbar which looks lovely, or have the rotation back..
Decisions decisions.
Thanks for your help.

Not at All! There are many top bars (color ones and flashy ones and everything in between) throughout these excellent HD forums which will not give you the rotation problem. Simply try again and soon enough you'll have the best of both worlds. (for me, out of about 7 different top bars only 2 had the rotation problem....maybe just one)
Good hunting!

how to rotate screen? in setting

in hd i used to toggle between landscape and portrait from setting - system- screen then portriat or landscape,
in hd2 how can i do this?? this property is not availabel in setting.
pls can somebody tell how to rotate screen in this hd2?
thanks
hi ..ive got a similar issue .....the only shortcut that works with the accelerometer on my hd2 is the photo album ....the browser etc doesn’t respond the orientation of the handset ??.....any help would be most appreciated
.............
Did you try to keep your screen upright (vertical) when turning te screen? This should at least solve the issue for a couple of programs like Opera in landscape.
Second, not all programs support a landscape mode. There are more discussions on this forum how to solve this issue. You could use the search to find them.
Hope this helps.
