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?

I have a t-mobile Vario III and the x-button worked fine from the title bar until i installed pocket plus 4, now having removed pocket plus as the UI seems much more responsive without it i have lost my x button from the top right of the screen :-(
In settings i have the boxes checked to enable it both for tapping and also to be on the home screen but its not there.
I went into settings and did a factory restore and now the x-button icon is gone from system settings completely !!
I have tried to install the x-button 2.0 cab from here without success as it just wont let me install it, either onto device or storage. (the original version on the device was 1.51)
Its really starting to bug me now lol so i`d be very grateful if anyone could help !
Thanks guys

Try this one:
HTC X Button (Task Manager)
htc/X-Button-1.5.cab
Mike
Nope that doesn`t work either, it wont even try to install that one, unlike v2 which it at least tries to install before telling me it wasn`t successful.
Many thanks for trying tho

Very odd. Tho' probably due to it being installed and perhaps even running but not showing correctly.
Another hard reset?
Mike
Thanks, seems another hard reset did the trick
Damn thing wont connect to the net automatically now when launching browser etc, however it does when using connection sharing with my laptop. Very odd lol
Thanks again
Has anybody tried this on there Titan yet?
http://www.engadgetmobile.com/tag/6on6
I've used IE6 from no2chem's NueROM-M 201 and it rocks! You can find download here for that ROM. I've heard not-so-good things about using IE6 before I actually used it, and I have to say it probably is one of those that you either love or hate. I happen to love it. New download manager, better zoom support, JS, CSS, Flash, switch between Desktop and Mobile code view. I have to say - as a web developer and WinMo user for the better part of two years - do everything you can to get this application. It is awesome!
Jacob,
Glad to hear that you liked the new IE6, I can't wait to try it.
I am sure someone will be looking for it, so sere's a direct link to the standalone IE6 .cab: HERE.
Thanks in advance,
Matt!
Does the cab, IE6, replace IE Mobile? How is performance on the titan, with its limited memory, is IE6 actually usable or is it like Opera 9 (Out of memory errors)?
I'm on the NueROM as well and I found it to be very slow - especially when used to browse forums.

Unable to find app
I installed the cab, it asked to restart my phone, I did so and now I am unable to find any changes. I've repeated this process twice. The first time I installed to main memory with no joy. The second I installed to the memory card and was unable to locate any changes at all in any folders. I tried launching pIE to see if it was just a overall replacment also to no avail. I could use some help if I've don'e something incorrect.
Yeah I see no changes. Is this really the right cab? Hopfully if I uninstall it, it won't delete my mobile IE
Since I backed up everything, Im very daring.
I've tested this uninstall for you and it doesn't remove pIE
Im going to take apart the cab and see whats in it.
**edit**
I don't know what Im looking for to be honest. It went quicker to view it than I thought.
Thanks I appreciate it. I would like to know where the thread of that attachment came from.
Hmm. The more I use the IE Mobile and read about it, the more it seems to be missing. I have the browser set to mobile view, yet it stays in full desktop style. Had this problem in NueROM and now in GaMedic's ROM. Was under the impression it doesn't work - now I wonder if it just isn't working on my Mogul for some reason.
EDIT - Oops. I need to clarify - the mobile/desktop toggle works in that it disguises my mobile when I goto sites that auto-detect. I really miss the One-Column style browsing. Any way to bring that back?
Its really slow and the web pages dont fit the screen so I quickly removed it

Can be a bad setting that create those crashes.? what's your opinion.?
The cause of this problem is \Windows\htcapi.dll. Uninstall the program that put it there and you'll be fine. Or just delete the file. If it came with a custom ROM rename it to something like htcapi.dll.bak.

This .dll is attached on other critical component inside the PDA or i can change the extension without any problem .?
It's not part of stock ROM, doesn't exist in your device as it comes from HTC. It's added by some programs like "Diamond Hologram", some tweaks intended for "optimizing" device performance, and sometimes ROM chefs include it in their custom ROMs. So if you get rid of it some programs will stop working. I've never seen an important program use it though, so it's safe to at least try. The problem with this dll is that it's taken from some other devices and isn't made for HD.

Ok i've changed the extension and soft reset..the browser seems to be ok now.! i've tryed to open/closed 3 or 4 times and the phone won't crash..! amazing.! but, why this .dll create this conflict with opera.?
I have no idea why this conflict exists, but generally if you take a driver from one device and try to use it on another you're asking for trouble.

Oh is right.! have you seen that in April will go out Touch HD 2.? the camera will have flash.! but i think that the Touch hd 1 remain the good choice..what do you think about.?
This is completely off-topic, but yes, I think HD2 will be my next phone. And yes, HD is a very good device to my taste.
but i am having problems with opera in default rom which is from orange
and even updating with new orange rom opera is not stable especially after enabling plugin in settings of opera
its all with out tweeks and moding
I have no idea what that Orange ROM is like. If there htcapi.dll in \Windows? If yes, rename it and see if it helps.
Apart from that, what plugin are you trying to enable?

unable to find file htcapi.dll in windows folder
i do not have exact idea of these plugins(i believe it to be java ) but opera settings >advance settings have option to enable plugins
The fact that there is a setting doesn't mean you have to change it, especially when you don't know what you're doing. Just disable them and live happily ever after.

I use Total-Commander for find this library.dll in Windows folder because if you use the normal finder in the phone, it doesn't reveat the system's files (i think for a security prevenction)...try this and say us if you have solved..in any case be happy, we will find the cause of your problems
Hello all. I have always wondered why i was not able to rotate the screeen more for apps other than opera. Why did i need to slide open the keyboard to get landscape mode? Well in searching i found this app in T-mobile touch pro 2 forum. the discovery was made by McBrian. Unfortunately i am not too sure who wrote the app. For this i apologize. I have used xda extensively and thought that this would be a good little app to post...to give back to the community. so here it is....Once u install the the cab, go to Programs and start the application and change the default settings to suit ur preference. I take no responsibilty for what happens to ur phone
there are several apps that do that, and can be found here on xda with some searching. Thanks for the link
Turns out ChangeScreen is the perferred program...

If you want to uninstall it, all you have to do is go to Start>Settings>System>Remove Programs and select Changescreen before pressing "Remove".
Dave your the freakin man!!!
I swear your everywhere!!!
Anyway, I just downloaded the program and I was having a little trouble with excluding and including stuff...
I have no idea what's going on, but I think I got it to work. It's pretty slow though...
Can you post what you have on each tab checked and unchecked. I promise this will be the last you hear from me!!!
Thanks again,
LOL don't worry about it, I'm happy to help
On the 1st tab I have Enabled, Run on Startup, and the first two directions in the next row checked. On the second tab, I deleted "manila" from the list and nothing is checked. On the third tab, nothing is checked.
As for the slowness, however, there's no way I know to speed it up. It's a shame, as it does take quite a while to rotate.
Ahh...that's the problem...
I remember reading something you wrote that said exclude Manila...but I couldn't find it.
On the second tab (Exceptions), I have nothing there.
I simply have a bottom at the top that says "ADD". If I click add, it brings a blank slate and I can type stuff on there...it's weird.
Thanks again,
so whats the difference between this cab, abd the g sensor cab that once installed allows all of the manila TF3D stuff to rotate using the phones g sensor,then any new app you add just use g sensor app to make them rotate,theres no lagg with either of these
Even for my AT&T Tilt 2?

g config works with any pro 2 you jus st launch it then launch the app you want to rotate then insert the stylus and it adds that app to the ratation settings,
as for the g sensor cab im not ure give it a try, if it works then calender etc and everything else on TF3d should rotate without having to open the keyboard , if it doesnot work just remove the cab file

Does anyone else have any insight to these programs or even change screen?
I'm not too savy with HTC's...
Thanks,
from what i understand, and correct me if im wrong, but these programs will make ur battery drain significantly...the reason being is bc it "pools" the accelerometer alot more often than normal...again, correct me if im wrong but i believe this is true
NOTE: Updated the text file on 07/04/2010 with additional info after feedback.
Hey, has tried this cab manila 2.5_2012.1225?
I found out about it on forums after much searching. I wish I could post the links but because I'm a new user I'm not permitted
It works pretty well for me so far I just need some help trying to fix a few things like getting landscape mode to work, getting the photo browser to work properly (you can only browse ie. no slideshow or enlarging photos), getting the wifi tab to work in settings etc.
If you need help installing it just ask, I have all the necessary files and instructions - just don't know if I'll be able to post the links or upload them?
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Ignore the above - I have resolved most of these issues. I have attached a text file instruction on how to install this and where to get it in my last post below.
Deleted!!!
Deleted means what?
Got the photo album to work now
Got landscape mode to work as well
Everything working bug-free now - just a few of the tabs in settings like gsensor calibration not working but nothing serious. Phew, no need for cooked roms.
manila 2.5 cab
Can you post the link?
I would like to try witht the lastest official rom
Thanks
Stan
Here is the link: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=632519
Can you let us know what additional steps are needed to take after you install to get it optimized on our phones? What are the remaining bugs that still need to be fixed? I read the forum and it looks like there's alot of extra steps... this sounds great though, look forward to hearing from you...thx!

Instructions for installing manila cab
OK for all who are interested, I have uploaded a text document detailing how to go about getting this Manila CAB to work. So far I'm very happyThere may be 1 or 2 tabs that don't work in the settings tab but they really don't bother me - one is Gsensor calibration for example. Let me know if this works. I had to try and search for all the links again so I hope I got them right for you.
Known issues thus far:
1) Music doesn't play when the screen is switched off
2) Album searcher can't see videos
Am trying to get these fixed. Will let you know when I find anything.
Just one thing you must be aware of: without installing this I had about 100mb program ram; after installing with all the fixes it goes down to roughly 70mb. It's not a problem for me because I don't demand a lot from my phone and never use more than 1 application at a time but I could perhaps recommend installing netnerds custom business rom which is ultralight and then trying this CAB over it. If any of you try this approach and have success with more memory let me know

Hi
I followed the steps and most of things work perfectly.
A few things that doesn't work for me, maybe I am doing something wrong
1. My location doesn't work
2. Music can't continue playing when I turn the screen off
3. No video in "pictures and video" tab and no landscape mode.
Thanks

Did anyone else have problems with the weather? If so try this cab file. I found it wasn't necessary for me but it was for the previous version of the manila cab file. Please note that you need to update the weather manually at least I found this to be the case. Personally I don't mind this. As far as the weather screen saver goes, I have never actually seen manila 2.5 in live action, only in videos so I don't know how exactly its should work but it does work full screen in the background but only when the home tab "reloads" so to speak, when it plays once through the animation and then returns to normal. I'm not sure if it's supposed to show the weather in the background continually without end - I thought not or it would drain the battery?
For landscape mode you need to press the 3rd "<" key on your phone.
I haven't got any videos on my phone so I haven't been able to test if it can find them or not.
Is music supposed to carry on playing when you press the left hard button? If so it doesn't mine either.
