Hello guys
I am trying to enjoy the auto rotate function on my desire but it is very annoying and inaccurate, i was hoping the auto rotate would only work when the phone is at 90 or 180deg instead of i.e. 60-70 and about140, calibration doesn't help, does anybody know an app or a dev that could somehow fix this 'issue' and make it to rotate only when it hits 90 and 180?
regards

Hi,
Just got my Topaz today.
I only manage to get it to landscape mode when turning left, is there a way of getting to go landscape when turning to the right. I prefer it that way for querty usage, being right handed I prefer to have extra reach with mi right hand.
Thanks.
I thought that it can rotat each way except for upside down. If not that will suck but sure there is a hack for it. Try turning it to the right and tilting the screen down a little bit?
If it works let me know. And by right I assume you mean that you like the bottom of the phone to be on the right side. Because I hate diveces that rotate to the left.... I've seen a few where you need to turn it left to slide out the qwerty. Seems Bass Ackwards to me.
Is it possible to rotate both ways?
Anyone found a fix for this? I'm using the new WM6.5 rom, and after enabling auto-rotate, I can only get it to rotate one way. I'd like it to rotate the other way as well as that would suit the position of my car mount and car charger better. Any ideas anyone?
not sure if it works but you can try to change with advance config 3.3 landscape mode from 270° to 180° for right rotation but its fixed

Don't you mean "to" 90 degrees?
180 would be upside down?
yes 90 degrees
You can use ChangeScreen to rotate all the programs.
Changescreen does the trick
Thanks chaps for all the advice. Advanced config does seem to have settings to rotate in all directions, but the Touchflo interface would still only rotate in the one direction.
However, changescreen seems to override that, and allows you to rotate it in all directions (as long as you take the restrictions of the Manilla settings).
Thanks everyone!

I very much appreciate that the diamond has G-sensor and can rotate itself based on the orientation. And I actually love this feature. But when I am reading or surfing webpages, or doing something else, it is really annoying if the screen rotates just because some minor orientation changes of my device or sometimes when my body moves a little. It is really annoying because I need to wait probably some time to rotate the screen back.
Is there anyway or any program can set the screen rotate only on shaking or define the angle difference of the device to rotate the screen? I really love the idea that when I hold my device and then shake it, and only the shaking can activate the G-sensor. But can we do that? Does this kind of apps exist?
Thanks!
I tried this with the 2.1 OpecEclair ROM,but i returned to original Android 1.6 and now I don't have this option.
Can I unlock this option(360 degree rotating) whit the original ROM?Also now I can switch orientation only when I'm browsing or typing SMS.I want to rotate in the menu or at the home screen.
I will appreciate any help.
?? 360 degrees?
is it possible that you mean 180° ?
360° is all the way round, so it's the same as before. 180° means upside-down..
I can understand 270°. But 180°? What's the point?
I think, maybe he wants turn the view 180 degrees, when in horizontal mode, becouse he is left-handed and this will be more comfortable for him. Or maybe, not... Where he's gone, he doesn't answer to our questions :/

I too was looking for a way to manually change screen rotation without using the g sensor however there is (as of now) no app to force screen rotation , if your g sensor is completely busted you will not be able to rotate the screen . try downloading Max protractor from the market and see if you get any feedback in that program to confirm it is the G sensor and not a bad kernel .
Orientation sensor looks like a chip, i see it when i disassemle the phone. And it was broken (physically damaged). If i can find a working one, i try to replace it. whatever...
Yesterday i find a little program, name is "Rotation Locker". It works very well for me. I suggest it...
PS: Apologize for my bad English
