Hello, guys it is my first post here. i've searched alot about my issue but doesn't figure it out. When i saw this vidoe
i figured that my acer doesn't auto-rotate in today screen but it rotates in album and IE. so i thought it might be an application or it is a theme that makes it auto-rotate. so i want to know is it a theme or the Today screen has to auto-rotate.(accelerometer works in other application but not for this)
Acer S200
Software 3.003 EN (Updated from Acer website)
yes if you look up the F900 gsensor settings cab, this cab will allow you to set what apps auto rotate and it works for the today screen too
thanks for your reply but i didn't get what l've to do. i am new to smartphones , could u explain more?
Thanks, Bickmista. I figured out what you were talking about, i've downloaded PREI_GSensorSetting.CAB and it finally WORKS!!!. Thanks again for your time and effort. but is it ok or F900 is better?
Im glad i could help and im not sure, aslong as it works. i use the f900 gsensor cab and it works well for me, but if it works then stick with it the f900 cab allows you to set what individual apps are allowed to use the gsensor to auto rotate, i do not know if the one you have has this function.
Yeah, it has this function and it works fine for me. thanks again.

Anyone tried this app on the athena? (as it also has an accelerometer) If so does it work?
http://s-k-tools.com/index.html?m_util.html#gsen
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

X7500 (Ameo) with AP4 or AP5
I have tried it, but still I get the message that the gsensor cannot be found.
Edit:
Oeps it just start working. I noticed the veuflo was disabled.
can anyone post those .dll files, so others can use them? thanks
I have installed the newest build of Opera 9.5 (15233) from the Omnia on my HD (so that I can install Flash Lite for YouTube etc.) and I must say that it is quicker than the supplied version.
However, it will not rotate with the G-sensor or at all. I have looked through the settings, config and registry and have found nothing that changes the situation (in the registry there is HKLM\Software\Opera\GSensor\IdleTime set at 200 but I have no idea what that refers to).
Does anybody have any ideas? I'm using Gyrator2 at the moment but would prefer it to work natively.
Thanks in advance...
Have you tried it without Gyrator installed? Perhaps the two are conflicting.
Yeah I tried that at first cos Gyrator can be a bit of a pain. Now I've turned of almost all the events it works ok.
I have noticed that my SMS and Mail don't rotate either...
hey mate,
just use mobilemagic instead of g-sens. rotation works flawlessly for messages as well. (you need compact framework 3.5 - you should find a cab here at the forum - in case you haven't already flashed a custom ROM)
regards
irm
If I'm not mistaken, on the gyrator site, the developer states that rotation on the HD has been turned off purposely so it wouldn't conflict with TF3D. He goes on to say that strange things can happen when software like gyrator (and gsens or mobilemagic) is used to undo that.
On my machine it's mainly the phone module which gets in the way (using gsens). It works fine until I phone or am phoned and then it might or might not work properly after that, showing the screen rotating back and jumping to Home or the phone module or something.
Does Mobilemagic have any of that?

I was going to buy the HD today,but just saw one terrible point in gsmarena and stop buying it. The issue is- The HD doesn't have an option for landscape auto rotation or the landscape keyboard for Messaging,it's only available for Web browsing. Is that true? If it is then i am not gonna buy it. Please rep ASAP.
It is not true. It just doesn't work out of the box but if you install Gyrator, GSen or Flip-It it works perfectly.
Correct, you need to install one of the above, and it auto rotates no problem. I use Gyrator, very user friendly
Install ChangeScreen from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=466858
Best app for what you need.
Basically it allows either 2 modes.
It will rotate to landscape at any screen/application other than the ones you specify not to.
or
It will only rotate on the screens/apps you want it to.
I have set it to the latter so that it only rotates on messaging and rss reader app.
Much less complicated than the apps mentioned above.

Hi!
Planning to buy this HD stuff I wonder if I can use this landscape keyboard to input data to office applications?
sure you can! even without any roatae add ons, and it's great
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!

Gyrator2 is amazing lol. it flips the phone so fast. its way faster then it was before in apps that it would flip in. and when the phone is in landscape the keyboard still knows and changes its type. thanks for the link
i found in this it work well with my TD2 . go to this link find the software name changeScreen v2.78 – Auto Screen Rotation application
Hay all,
I saw on a themes post an app called Touch Xtreme that basicly make your today screen wallpaper appear on every background tab when slide to the next screen on the TouchFlo
But the link was broken an I cant find it on here.
Does anyone have this or the same kind of app?
Thanks
Leigh
Since you're looking for an App, you should have posted this in the "Themes, Applications and Software" section of the forum which is also where your answer lies. The thread is called "[SOLVED] background for all tabs etc" link below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=475527&highlight=background+tabs
Furthermore, many of the apps in that section will create background cabs for you which will not only work for all tabs, but also in landscape (if you have manila 2.0 or higher) and in High Resolution.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=469865
this one?
works great for me!
Cheers for the help guys
But the first one seem quite diffcult - there no CAB progs that do this?
Also the 2nd post is a background thing is it? Thats a touch screen sentivity prog.

Hmmm ... don't now why i suggested this ... I shouldn't post at that time anymore
I'm not sure if it would be that easy with your own Home-Tab-Wallpaper, because the other Tab-Backgrounds are Manila-Files.
Svegetto:
I just tryed the post you gave me an had an error message when coping one of the Malian files -
Only found out at the VERY last page that it was for an older TouchFlo as mines TouchFlo 3.0
