Screen does not rotate - HD2 General

Hi
Just setting up and tweaking my HD2. All good so far apart from the screen does not roate to landscape mode in Opera. (havent tried it in any other app yet). Am I missing something or have I got a faulty phone?
Thanks

You should try Gyrator 2. But Opera should go to landscape without installing any additional applications.

I had the same problem yesterday with both opera and copilot refusing to rotate.
I'm afraid the only solution i could find was a hard reset.

Thanks for your replies guys. Managed to get it working by going to settings/ all settings and recalibrating it. Might save you from having to hard reset in future...,

Tried recalibrating but didnt work for me.

After you do that, perform a soft reset with bluetooth still on. The icon may come back.
As a last resort, I'd perform a hard reset to get everything back to "as new" condition.
This may not be necessary though.
I have the same problem and I played around with the registry and solved it. No time to go to the detail now. But to point is, try to make the bticon to load much later than it suppose to be which means you need to add something to the registry to delay its startup.
I followed your sugestion. I've changed the value of InitDelay, soft-reseted but the problem is still on!
Thaks anyway!
Please do a search in this forum before asking. This is a common problem that have been talk about many many times. It due to many startup program and today plugins. A program called "No Plugins Today" solve my problem.

Incorrect orientation in HTC Camera

I've tried it in many recent roms. The HTC G-sensor always gives incorrect orientation information for photos taken. Are there any solutions for that?
Thanks.

strange most roms with new manila have this issue fixed - try the attached cab - it fixed the issue on older roms, I dont know about newer though!!
searched through 5DVD discs for this cab, hope it works!!
Thanks for your effort... but it still not working.
I took a few landscape photo but it all displayed as portrait.
which rom do you currently have? try searching for the problem in the roms thread!
I am using the EnergyROM.. It sometimes works .. but most of the time not working in landscape mode.

If it sometimes works then maybe it has something to do with background programs runing-- do you have any screen rotation programs running in background?
try to shut down all programs with tast manager- and then take a picture------ or try to take a picture after you did a hard reset or installed a new rom!!u

Opera 10 beta 3 - Landscape

Guys, I've installed Opera mobile 10 beta 3 on my HD2 from Mike 2037 thread (wont let me post the url yet )
But no matter what I try, I can not get it to autorotate. Anyone managed to do this? If you have, I would be most grateful if you could explain how to do this
Many thanks for any help given
1. install BSB 1.6
2. go to Menu -> Rotation
3. go to Options -> Add application
4. On dialog click OK
5. Go to home or wherever your Opera shortcut is and start it.
6. Shake your HD2 until it says that the app was added.
7. Enjoy.
It worked nicely for me... And still works.
Cheers.
I've just installed Opera Mobile Beta 3 and rotation is working fine for me. It should't need aditional software to make it rotate to landscape.
Hi Guys, thanks for your replies
@ikovac - I've done as you said and got the messagebox telling me the Apped had been added to the rotation but it still wont enter landscape mode when I rotate the phone. All other apps etc do just not Opera 10 beta 3.
It is really annoying me now as I really like the new opera browser
Hi Guys, just letting you know that it is now sorted. What I didn;t realise was that I would have to go back into BSB Tweaks and select Opera 10
Thanks for you help guys - I think version 10 of Opera is the dogs dangly bits
i think ill install opera 10 and try the bsb tweak. not having a landscape mode was the only thing putting me off. ill just ask a quick question here though instead of starting a new thread.....when i install opera 10, do i need to save it to the device itself or can i install it to my memory card. cheers....
Hey donwhann, I did both and I don't think it made a diffence. I settled in the end for installing it on the phone because I use the web a lot but may not always have the same SD card in the phone
Guess it's up to you dude

cheers buddy, i'll do the same and install it to the phone, i never thought about the "changing memory card" bit which ill be doing pretty soon lol. cheers.....
i cant get bsb tweaks to landscape it......gutted
@donwhann
It took me a couple of goes buddy. INstall BsB Teaks 1.6 (I think you need to reset) then follow the instructions ikovac wrote. When you shake you phone, you should get a prompt asking saying the the application has been added. You then need to go back into BsBTweaks and then select the application in the Rotate menu
Hope this works for you fella as it sorted me out

it took a while but i got it sorted lol,it looks sweet......just need pinch to zoom now
thanks for the help bud.......
@donwhann, yeah pinch and zoom would be brill but everything makes up for it at the moment. No problem with the help - I struggled myself so happy to pass on my experience to help
Do you think Opera 10 is cool? My mate has got an iPhone and he's says (and I agree) that the HD2 browser is better
I'm glad it worked.
BTW I didn't have to select it in the bsb rotate menu. It worked straight after it had been added by shaking. I believe bsb selections are for removing apps only.
edit: @greenboy opera 10 beta 3 on hd2 is way better than iphone browser to me
Does the flash work properly with beta 3 on the HD2? Also, if you install it on the HD2, will it copy over the opera 9.7 that's built into the HD2..?

Na it dont, you end up with both versions, although you can set it as the default browser.
its bsb tweaks thats the problem. it still has a bug in that it doesn't save properly if you soft reset when its prompts you. the solution to it is that when it asks you to soft reset say no and then when the application is closed perform a soft reset. either off and back on or the reset button or xda shutdown etc. should be fine that way.
@all
this enhanced version has landscape by default
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5618575&postcount=1458
Enhanced version works great.
sorry,ignore this.
Will that work OK on standard/default windows 6.5 without any tweaks etc?

How to uninstall Zooomer (HD2) ???

I have removed it properly - the issue is phone is still running the app and it's active regardless of removal of app and soft reset I did afterward.
Can someone recommend some cleaner or some registry key I can tweak around to get rid of this app?
Thanks all!
Yes please can somebody answer this question? I didnt like it and I wanted to delete it since it wasnt funtioning correctly. It actually zooms everything on my phone like phone calls in progress screens. Zooomer is completely and properly removed but functionality is still active. I dont want to.hard reset. Its driving me crazy. Help anyone?

Not sure what registry values have been changed - but hard reset may be the only way out...

Yes, I hard reset. Now it's fine. I'm just went with adding zoom with BSB tweaks. That worked better for me.
If I'm not mistaken, zoomer edits reg values only - HD2 already has the capability to zoom any app - it depends on the registry setting to turn it on or off.

I'd REALLY like to just fix the registry rather than hard reset........sooooooooooo many programs to reinstall! Ugh!
There's a reason I have Sprite Backup.

[Solved] Skyscape Medical Programs...help with search please!!!!

Hi there
I just got my HD2, and I'm very happy with it
I tried installing skyscape (Dr Drugs) on my device, but whole thing looks different from the one I had on previous device (all were qvga)
The layout is more finger friendly I guess, but still.. no search option! take a look at these pictures
the "Look for" bar that usually was at the buttom of the page is not there anymore!!
I tried with skyscape technical support, but the guy was clueless, just a waste of time....
did any of you guys had similar problem?? or had skyscape working properly for them??
cheers
When typing in the drugs do you just guess then? I'm looking into getting the HD2 but my Dr.Drugs on my tilt looks different than yours. Maybe try the 2010 version?
Otherwise do the skyscape aps work well?
well I tried typing before, it did not work, however today I tried again and it works fine, however it's very inconvenient!
I think if there is a keyboard that has a small tab at the top that shows whatever you are typing, it would be great...something like the full screen version of SPB keyboard, but in normal portrait position
I did a hard reset, and now everything works fine, still don't know why that happened in the first place
same happening to me. Tried hard reset. Worked. Then restored backup. Happened same issue. I don't want to install everything from scratch. Is there any other solution?
Thanks...
