[Q] Problem flipped screen - Optimus 7 General

Hello,
I just got my LG optimus 7 but I encountered my first problem immediately.
When the screen flips to the horizontal position it does not come back to straight position when i hold my phone in that position. Does anyone knows how to solve this problem?
Many thanks!

Possibly by changing/deleting registry keys.
You should have all keys and values under \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Builtin\Accelerometer
I haven't fully explored it so I can't say exactly what key/value you need to change, but I'd guess the important value would be the Dll that holds the name of the dll used by the accelerometer.
I haven't tried this though so be warned I might be totally off on this, most likely there are others on the forums that know more.

I just recalibrated the accelerometer using the MFG-tool I found here on the forum.
Works fine now!

Yes, I fear the my next (probably in one or two year) purchase of a new WP7 device that will not come with a MFG app...

VsNotepad - Virtual Spaghetti

Anyone managed to get VsNotepad 2.5 to work properly on Touch HD?
http://www.virtualspaghetti.com/index.php?index=30&language=en
When I run the demo on my TouchHD the stylus position and what I draw are not aligned? (Approx 1/4 of the screen width and height out)
Software does say its 480x800 compatible, even mentions the Touch HD. (I've run the setup and put the settings to forced, but I still get the aligment issue.) Reported it to the creators, but wondered if Im alone in this issue?

No, you are not alone. I have the exact same problem, even though their website says it works in WVGA mode, it doesn't. I've sent them two emails in the past week and so far, no response. Makes me wonder why I bother paying for software...

Not heard anything from VS yet... I keep checking the website...
I found this App so useful on my Kaiser, really missing it now on my THD
There is an updated Version now! I installed it and it works now. Problem for me, it looks so blury. Is this normal?

Where did you download it from? I can see it has been updated to 2.51, but when downloaded it appears as version 2.5 with the same symptom on my device!
I will check whether there are traces from previous install in the registry.

I have downloaded the 'official' version from their website and it does not work. It appears to be the exact same file I already have (it's the same size). It appears that they may not have updated their web links or have linked the file incorrectly. I have sent them an email.
they linked it wrongly.

Happy it works now....however, I want a WVGA version now!!!!
One step at a time I guess!!
Has someone else noticed a dramaticly system slowdown after starting VsNotepad? Ending the program doesn´t solve the problem, only softreset does. You can notice the slowdown in TF3D or better in coreplay, which even stopps working.
If you have the same problem, is there a really gote alternative for VsNotepad?
Just to notice:
Softreset isn´t demanded if you close the app. in the app and not via taskmanager. That way I can live with the slowdown when the app is running.

Disable wake up on new SMS

Is it possible to disable phone wake up when a new message comes in? I want wake up to be enabled when a call is coming, but not for text messages. I think there are some "scripts" in the registry to control the ringing-behaviour and these involve wake up. Is it possible to modify this setting specifically for SMS/MMS?

What does it do to achieve it? I don't like XperiaTweak too much, I don't think it's a very good piece of SW. And it means one app more.
it does what you have asked.

Doesn't sound like it's working well for them. Are you sure this is the same thing that XperiaTweak does?
Have you tried applying the registry tweak mentioned in the threads? It was what you were looking for, wasn't it?
HK_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL
Select "New" D_Word and you will be asked to enter the details :
Top portion just enter : DisableSMSWakeUpEvent
and bottom portion just enter the value : 1

Odd RegKeys..

There's quite a few reg keys in the leo that I've not come across before, nor can find any reference to anywhere..
So I thought I'd start a list..
if you have any thoughts as to what they do or could do then pipe up !
(please don't post ones that you can find the answer too by searching, that's no fun)
1st up:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Touchman Enable = 0
setting it to 1 or above doesn't seem to do anything, except it's reset to 0 after soft reset.

wouldn't that be part of the oobe though?
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\htcOOBE\Units\13

Yes but this could be a value that would just indicate that it needs to launch. Anyway, that was just a guess.

lol yeah I thought it maybe..
wish Htc would let on sometimes what some of these do, I reckon there's the odd Dev or two sitting there sniggering about all the fake keys they put into the registry.
Yes, proper documentation would be nice indeed, and not just in HTC's case.

Most of them seem to have a reason... I wouldn't worry about a few stray keys here and there, they're not going to be a huge slowdown...

Registry WM7 reference. What is this? Interesting!!!

While browsing the registry which I often do I came across something interesting:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd
WM7KeybdLayout = 0
Is this a reference for Windows Mobile 7/Windows Phone Series 7?
What could this mean?
I enabled it but can't see any changes.
Hmmm!
interesting.
i think this is probably left over from when HTC were preparing the device for Windows Mobile 7.
WM7 is no longer a project as it was expected... it is now Windows Phones 7 series as you already know... WP7S
wouldnt read anything else into it imo

Sod this, mines going back!
Set the following registry key...
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows:EnableFutureOSNotYetWritten = 1
Let us know how you get on
Lol!
I wasn't expecting WM7 to appear of course.
Just thought the refence was interesting and wondered how and if it related to the keyboard. I enabled it because it was a keyboard reference not an enable os reference
go to word and enter /windows mobile 7 mode= on
now you phone restarts and boots photon.
go to update and you get the latest beta of wp7s
no ithink it's just a coincedence(correct me cause i'm dutch)

[TIPS] Improve Screen Sensitivity Of Your WinMo (.cab) UPDATE 25/4/11

Hi,
I have found tips over the forums on how to improve the screen sensitivity of your WinMo resistive touchscreen
1) When calibrating your screen, tap the cursor hairs as accurately and as lightly as possible. I use a toothpick for this, it has a fine tip. You will notice immediately how much more responsive your screen is!
2) Another method I found was:
a) Install Attached .cab / Reg Tweak
b) Soft Reset
c) Be Amazed at your Screen Sensitivity!
This is a little .cab file / reg tweak created by kevinpwhite (all credits to him)
EDIT: Many people in the thread have said that it has calibrated their screen wrong and they can't navigate it (cab/reg) This has resulted in a hard reset to get the touchscreen back(due to different touchscreen resolutions etc) I will investigate more into this and create a new version, if possible. Please use it at your own risk, and be sure to create a backup of your device.
Originally by Reix2x
Hi, dudes, my HTC WIZARD gets "untouchable" after this installation, but i found the way to solve it! =D
1- Download: CeRegEdit (u can found it on Google, with this u can explore your mobile reg trough your PC)
2- Open it (with your cell phone connected in ActiveSync)
3- Go to Tools, and select "Unlock registry" (your registry will be "Editable")
4- Navigate to:[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\TOUCH] and change this values to your defaults:
"CalibrationData" and "MaxCalError" (you have to found the values for your phone, here in XDA i foud the values for my phone)
5- Softreset
I hope to help someone, and i hope than no one had to make an horrible hardreset

This was created specifically for the TG01, but i think that the WinMo stored values are the same across all devices. It simply changes a reg key to increase the screen pressure to the max.
Please give me feedback if it works for you!
Please hit the THANKS BUTTON if you like this!
well, this just ****ed over my omnia, and i can't access it from my computer as i dont have a connect cable. any tips on how to bring it back to normal without hard reset?

please read the xda rules... no bad language.
This cannot possibly cause ANY damage. i have tested it on various winmo devices (touch hd etc) if so, explain?
Also describe your problem better. how is that gooing to help me, by just saying it ________ my Omnia!

i've tested in my O2 LIFE WM6, at the first time i got trouble, i couldnt tap my screen well. when i tapped all screen, it connected to bottom right screen.
i used my navigation button to reach the SETTING-SYSTEM-SCREEN-ALIGN SCREEN.
the align screen works. then i used a srynge to calibrate it (dont try this at home), the final result is........
WORKS GREAT LIKE A CHARM!!
my screen becomes more sensitive! I dont need my stylus anymore, with resco keybord typing is so much fun.
THANK YOU..

this sets your screen sensitivity to the maximum allowed pressure point. So your resisitive touch screen will require a light touch to register changes.
This is what loads of people complain about? Poor screen sensitivity? So try this out!!

I've installed on my diamond 2 and I have been the same as the other: to do a reset, I have completely lost the calibration of the screen. Through "My mobile" I could recalibrate it, but do not notice any difference ...

Thanks for trying amyway! It certainly works for me though. It just recalibrates the reg entries for screen sensitivity. It wont male a huge difference!

thabks for the feedbakc! glad it works!
I always thought that this couldn't really be done. Tried many before and didn't see a difference. Then again I can't help myself so I will try this out too.
why didn't you come up with this earlier? i wasted two years using my htc jade with this insensitivity, finally a solution
thank you so much
Okay, I will try it now, but we need to know if there are a way to uninstall it safely in case if anything wrong happen like that one who had the Omnia, also you should type if we have to recalibrate the screen points after installing the tweak on all devices or what.
Thanks in advance.
tried it on my hTC Gene (P3400) running 6.5.5 and i got the same problem mentioned in post #5...dead unresponsive screen with a few taps being wrongly located towards the bottom right of the screen...so had to go into the screen setting via my D-pad and re-align the screen to enable it again
i think problem has something to do with the screen resolution (mine is qvga)
faced similar issues when trying a screen sensitivity improvement hack meant for wvga screens i found somewhere within the forums...
anyways nice job...its great to see some people still trying to make an effort to keep WinMo going!! keep up the good work!!

first try method one of calibrating your screen on your own
if you try method two of installing the cab thenall you have to do is run the cab file and soft-reset your device
if its worked, and we hope it does, then that should be it, you should have a screen which is more responsive
if you get a frozen screen just navigate to settings/system/screen and align your screen again to get it to work using the direction keys if you have them or by any other means
or hard reset to undo the settings
i'm just sharing whatever info i have...do tell me if i've left anything out
