same problem,i own Omnia 2 and the accelorometer seems to work eratically.it doesnt work on main menu,not even in the programs setting.only works on e-mail and office.Is this a deliberate design ommission from the original i900 which had auto-rotate all across the UI
similarly all the windows 6.5 settings are hidden(today,remove programes,task manager,etc)
Any help???

Anyone tried this app on the athena? (as it also has an accelerometer) If so does it work?

Would be brilliant if it works but my hopes aren't high as I couldn't find anything on the topic.

looks like a nice tool, but after I installed on my Ameo I tried to use GSen Version 1.40.
But a window popup with following message :
cannot connect to GSensor (1)
mhh, doesn't run on Ameo ... and delete it ...
Ameo, t-mobile ROM version 6
btw: I've now asked the developer why GSen is not running on Ameo ... hope I get an answer..
Accelerometer
Hey,
I've installed it on my HTC Advantage X7510 with WM6.! Professional, and I can confirm that it works.
When I'm in the today screen and I turn the PDA it does turn in Landscape and Portrait mode with no problem great at last it works.
Thanks for the link if anybody what's me to try anything please let me known.
Thanks
Gigino
I am happy for you gigino, but I am in the same boat as palmchen (have a X7500 with t-mobile WM6 ROM).
Perhaps the interface to the sensor is slightly different between WM6 and 6.1
I am sure it can't be that difficult to access it from WM6. Hopefully the developer will be able to implement it or give some clue which will assist some brainbox from this community in hacking this version to get working with WM6. In my eyes this is one of those killer apps.
I tried this on wm6.1, and had the same error message.
IMO the answer is simple: it works using HTC VUEFLO .dll. X7510 has those dll, x7500 doesn't!
In AP4 or AP5 it will work

mhh, simple question?
could you please provide the new vueflo.dll for the old devices ?
If it only a dll to change that should be not a problem, or ?
btw: I've asked the developer, but he told me that he is to busy and have no time in the moment to update this programm.
Thanks for this. It is a great find. Works well with my X7510.
This is a must have application for the X7510. It is just amazing.

For some it is a must have. For others, it is an annoyance and irritation.
only because we can't get it working!
Sorry guys, we doesn´t have these devices for testing.
We just was surprised about the info, our tool is working on HTC Advantage X7510.
Also we not know the reason why it is not working on HTC Advantage X7500.
Possible reasons:
- missing/different software driver
- different ROM/ACU version
- missing needed hardware
As i said, we cannot test because of missing hardware.

Not because of that. It was working all right.
I hated this auto rotate thing because 9 out of times the rotate happens against my wish, and it slows my device.
After the initial few minutes of novelty, I was already wanting to switch it off.

Thanks for the info, but I still far prefer assigning rotate screen to a hardware button and just press that when I want to rotate.

No, I don't, there are SOME dll, you can find it in the AP4 / AP5 ROM. I agree, the rotation is too slow and the screen rotation is useless and time consuming 90% of time. My brain is much faster in image rotation and my finger is slower than brain but acts only when needed

I would wish it will go faster and will run on my device (german tmobile WM6) ..

Screen rotation is fast on mine. Might be ROM or today screen related in yours.
The speed you can change in settings: #timeout(value) - default value 1000 ms

i have the same problem !
Im also having this problem. Has anyone found a way to change it to VGA mode somehow?
Same problem here.
In my case, the diamond dosn't show all the picture. If VGA has a higher resolution than QVGA, it should apear a picture smaller than the screen... no?¿
Any trick to sove this?¿

Vista Screen Rotation - Again

there are several threads addressing screen rotation under Vista but as far as I can tell, nobody has actually gotten the screen to rotate to primary portrait mode. Do the latest Intel drivers for Vista actually support primary portrait/primary landscape rotation, or is this still an issue?
Not as of yet as far as i know.
irotate
there is a program that i used once in XP that rotates the screen i dont know if it will work in vista and i cant try it since my shift its on the way but its worth the try
programs is called irotate.
best regards.

Screen Rotation for WM 6.5

Hi guys,
Sorry for the new topic but I'm having trouble finding an app to rotate the screen to landscape for wm 6.5 - I've tried gsens and it doesn't work. Can someone point me to the right direction?
Thanks
for manually change try RotateScreen
[EDIT]
ups....sorry
here is the right one...
The zip file seems to be empty :S. Thanks for the reply though however i would prefer auto rotation - I'm not sure why this isnt auto supported with the rom ....
Edit - Gyrator 2 - That's so far provided the best results!
Try Gyrator. (http://gyrator.brins0.net/) I use it on my windows mobile 6.5, and it works perfectly!

Landscape in WM 6.5(without Manilla) ?

If I disable Manilla and run the phone bareback without HTC Sence/Manilla enabled. Does there exist a tweak for the phone which will make the Windows icons, setting, etc turn while in landscape position?
Before you ask the Manilla 2.5 landscape project didn't work for me.
try to google , gyrator 2 , maybe you can use that ..

Hey Thomas,
mærkeligt at HTC ikke har opfundet noget lignende selv?
Strange that HTC hasn't build something simular?
Virker det ???
dos it works ???
Thomas
It's not an automatic rotation, but try PLToggle in my sig - you may find it more suitable

One thing john.
I seem to remember a earlier version of HTC Sense which looks very much like the HTC Sense on HD2, but was shipping with automatic landscape and sold with Touch Pro 2.
Why didn't they put that version of HTC Sense/Manilla on HD2? Any idear?

No idea mate. I do know that landscape support for Manila is coming in some ROM upgrades soon. I believe 2.02 (not yet officially released) has it.

Lets hope they include full landscape support for the entire device both in Manilla and Windows

BsB Tweaks does the job of adding auto-rotation for non-manila apps very nicely, and of course I'm going to plug PLToggle again
It's just manila that's lacking. I don't think we'll have to wait too long to get to a v2 ROM, which will hopefully have it.
