Screen rotate icon?

I've read in the Wiki and in the forums that there is suppose to be an icon on the main screen that allows the user to force the screen rotation. I've tried all the registry hacks I've seen, and I still can't get this icon to show up. I'd like to be able to quickly switch between portrait and landscape mode without sliding the cover. (e.g. While web surfing, some sites are viewed better when in landscape mode.)
Anyone got any suggestions for me?
p.s. I'm on the QTEK1.35.255.2 ROM.

As far as I remember Spb pocket plus is perfectly able to handle this.

Well yes...
Thanks, but I'm looking for a way to re-enable the icon that's suppose to be available in the ROM software already.
If anyone knows for sure if such an icon/feature is not in the QTEK ROM, please let me know!

Hide Sim Contacts

Do you hate showing duplicate contacts? Well after playing with the phone for 20 minutes i finally found out how to hide your sim contacts..
You will need a regdit program.
Go to HKCU"hot key control user"/Control Panel/Phone/Show Sim.
Change the default Dword value from 1 to 0
Restart your phone and you should be good.
Thanks!

yeah this is in the sticky @ Rhodium General, has been known since the MDA/Wizard days, as well as the option of using Advanced Config 3.3
thanks for playing

If you use the Tf3D HTC contacts tab, All People. Theres an option to view ALL, Contacts, or SIM. So no need to even do the registry.

Yes your right.. but knowing the fact that if your lazy like my girl and press on call button.. you will get the duplicated contacts and she gets annoyed by it so this is the way to turn it off

Thanks for this, seeing dups was very annoying haha.

One of the most useful threads ever! Thanks!

[Q] Is this native video calling (settings)

I was playing around with ADW and I was adding a custom shortcut.
I went to ADW.Activities and was looking around for something fun to put on the home screen when I came accross a videocall.videocall intent under call settings
I will include screenshots for those who want to see it.
Is this a setup of sorts for native videocalling on the phone? Is this sprint only? Do other people have this on there phones?
The shortcut opens to a window with options for setting up how the phone handles video calls but I dont see anything in the phone anywhere about making a video call.
Any ideas.

P.S.
anyone who wants to see this on their phone should add a custom activity to their adw home screen and goto callSettings-->video call(videocall.videocall)

Weird, comes up on my phone too. Anybody have any info?

Someone should look this up on the Evo and see if it's either a Sprint thing or a Samsung thing.

It's an Android thing.

[Q] How to GeT the Mic Icon on Swype???

Hi Guys,

I recently had to swipe out clean my SD card, I re installed everything again including my vesion of SWYPE which at one point in the past it had the Mic Icon funtion.
Now its not on my keyboard under the freash install. A while back I had ran into a webpage were it simply showed you how to added to the keyboard which depending on your software version it was hidden. it was something like Press Space, something, something and Viola!!!!
Does anyone know the settings to put the mic on my keyboard? I should have saved that webpage, but now am frying my brain digging endlessly online. Any help would be appreciated.
Fyi... This is my current Swype Version: swype_with_mic_english_only_2.4.44.10912.t100apk

Hi!
I think you have used an app or a cmd/powershell script to add these, check your app or the website from which you downloaded the modifications to see if there is any way to undo the changes, if not read the rest of this article
Try using this portable app from Nirsoft: https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/shmnview.zip
find the name of those menu options, then right click and click disable. Be careful, DO NOT DISABLE OTHER THINGS, I think there is a option to reverse it, not sure.
if you don't want to use that method, do any other from this article: https://technastic.com/remove-items...emove_Shellex_Items_from_the_Right-click_Menu
Please ONLY USE THE REGISTRY EDITOR METHOD IF YOU ARE GOOD IN COMPUTERS AND YOU ARE CONFIDENT modifiying the wrong thing could cause system problems

OMG bro thanks a lot!! This was really helpful and the app from Nirsoft worked for me!
I really really appreciate your fast response and assistance on this!
