Any way of preventing screen rotate to portrait ?

Just wondering if there is a registry hack that stops the screen from automatically rotating and displaying in portrait mode when you flip the screen round ?
i.e. it should stay in landscape mode no matter if the screen is facing in/out or otherwise.
You can do it manually by clicking on the screen rotate icon, or going into Settings > Screen > Orientation, so I figure there must be a reghack to put it permanently into Landscape ?

Ok, i've found the key at least which shows what mode is currently in use:
This is Landscape (Right-handed) mode:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\Rotation
Angle 0x5A (90)
HideOrientationUI 0x0 (0)
LanscapeMode 0x1 (1)
The question is, how do I stop those being overwritten or change it so when it's in Portrait mode, it actually uses those settings ?

gaspx: I'm an odd fellow. I'd written you a long post about basically:
rotation is achieved at OS level, and driver level, so althought it's possible to be notified of the screen being rotated, intercepting it would require, AFAIK, some fairly substantial low level code or a reg key I'm not aware of.
But then I remembered my work on the Universal Voice Command/External Key issue in another thread. I've written a test program called VJElectrify, which contains a hack called ClamHack. And I just tried clamhack, and amongst its other side effects, yes, it does allow you to prevent the system forcing a rotation. So system stays in landscape if you open in laptop mode, or rotait into portrait mode. You then manually choose your rotations.
VJElectrify isn't finished yet, still a lot more research to do, but yes, it is possible to prevent it Keep an eye out for when VJElectrify is released.
Anyone else know another way to do this? I can't think of any relevant reg settings.

Heh heh, I knew it probably wouldn't be as simple as a reg hack.. cheers for the reply Vijay, i'll keep a watch on your website for the forthcoming VJElectrify..

Thats just the keys where the current state is stored.
the key you need is HKLM\Services\ScreenRotate (you can change the ShowIcon value here to enable/disable the today icon)
Ive tried just renaming the ScreenRotate but that failed then i tried changing the dll name stored in the key, after all if it cant find the dll surlly it'll stop the rotations.
NOPE, i know the dll rename is working as the icon failed to appear, but the auto rotates continue to happen, it must be OS, it must be!!
.....the search continues

I did that as well.. sorry, should've mentioned it in my original post, but I had the same idea as you! - the screenrotate.dll just seems to be tied to the icon in the systray. sigh.
Have to wait patiently for the VJClamhack to be released..

The clam hack has, by design, side effects - it disables part of the system OS, which conveniently disables screen rotation detection and some other stuff on the hinge. However, the bugger refuses to enable hardware keys with lid closed.
Because clamhack is quite a big sledgehammer for a nut, I'm a little worried about putting it out - however, I've never seen any negative sideeffects, only positive

Load DinarSoft MemMaid on your Universal.
Just as you can delete Startup Items, you can also delete Start Up Services. I believe I saw a service related to screen rotation in there.
I don't have my Universal for another week (getting replaced), but I do recall seeing that in there.
As always, perform a backup in case you can't "add" it back in.

I don't think that Rotation service helps, I tried it a bit earlier, since it seems to be an obvious target.

Thats OK, i don't need to use hardware keys when it's closed -- I figure this is part of a bigger problem you're looking at..

Yeah, I think that was the one Carnivor and myself had found.. we just prevented the service starting manually by bodging the registry key, but all it does is stop the little screen rotate icon from appearing.. thanks though

Has anyone figured this out yet?
Thanks

Clear type in Lanscape mode...how to make it stay?

When I enable clear type in landscape mode by editing the registery :
Changing the value of HKLM\System\GDI\ClearTypeSettings\OffOnRotation from 1 to 0 it works BUT only for a while, then it reverts back to 0 and
I don't have clear type when I pull out the keyboard. Does anyone know how to make it stay? (it worked in the wizard without any problems)
Thanks.

I use nScriptm freeware from www.s-k-tools.com and a simple script. I made a shortcut in the startup folder to run this script w/o showing the console window.
BTW the same script sets PIE cache size to 4096MB for me - a value that is reset every boot as well.

Easy peasy...why make things harder
Download TwkCL from here...
http://www.tweaks2k2.com/portal/staticpages/index.php?page=2005022517002183
or if you can't just searchfor it.
Place it in your Windows - Startup folder.
Select it to run it, nothing will happen but it HAS ben enabled.
Then you simply soft-reset your device.
Et Voila! You have Cleartype always enabled in landscape mode.

It wouldnt work properly anyway... MS Cleartype counts on horizontal orientation of R-G-B triplet in LCD matrix, it can not do "vertical subpixel rendering", only horizontal.
So if you forcefully enable it in landscape, it would smooth text in perpendicular direction, making it more blurry instead of actual resolution enhancement.

Actually it works perfectly...the text looks EXACTLY the same either way.
Been using it ever since I had my JAM.

It doesnt. Surely, you see the difference, but only in Portrait it actually works as intended. In Landscape you get same result youll get if you grab a screenshot from Cleartype text and rotate it - if you'll read how cleartype actually works, you'll understand that this would obliterate the main idea of it.
Even MS said that numerous times. The only advantage you get in landscape is "smoother" fonts, but that came with drawback of reduced sharpness and also more visible "color outlines" on letters (while in portrait when cleartype works as intended sharpness is not reduced and color outlines is a lot less visible).
Read this article - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleartype
It would help you to undestand the mechanics of it.

I actually found the answer to my own question. For the TyTN, you have to change HKLM\System\GDI\ClearTypeSettings\ROTATION\LandscapeMode from 1 to 0 and it'll stay. It works. No need to load any programs in the startup folder.
Ken

under gdi?
I can't find it, there's cleartypesetting and rotation, not rotation undercleartype.
Please clarify

Actually, don't you mean change the HKLM/System/GDI/ClearTypeSettings/ROTATION value from 0 to 1? ClearType will be on in landscape mode then.
@Ingvarr: you are correct but it still looks better when ClearType is enabled IMO

I guess its up to personal preferences... Iam very color sensitive, I guess thats why I cant bear visible color smudges at fonts edges in landscape

I've just used Magic SS to take screenshots of each and it looks the same even after a side by side zoomed in comparison down to the last pixel.
It looks the same to me. Maybe I'm losing it.

Hi, does this actually stay for you?, I had that set awhile back, and it would revert to the oem settings after a few soft resets or shutdowns.
I also like cleatype in landscape on, I do understand why its off by default, but I guess its really up to ones own prefrences, I changed the system font, and the cleartype makes the font look much better, It could possibly be that I need to up the font size.
Just a tip..if anyone decides to play with the system font, put the font in your windows directory, not the fonts folder, maybe everyne else already knew this, but I used the fonts folder at first...and it worked, but caused glitches.
Sorry to ramble off topic for a bit.

No, I do mean change the value from 1 to 0
If it is at 1, Clear Type would not be enabled in Landscape mode
If it is at 0, Clear Type WOULD be ENABLED in Lanscape mode

This doesn't work for me.
At first, I made the new key as kittiyut instructed because there was no key in defalut:
HKLM/System/GDI/ClearTypeSettings/ROTATION/LandscapeMode and set its value to 1
But this didn't work anything.
And then, I changed registries as follows and it seems OK before I soft-reset with stylus.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\ClearTypeSettings]
"OffOnRotation"=dword:00000000
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\ROTATION]
"LandscapeMode"=dword:00000000
But after stylus reset, OffOnRotation=1 comes alive again.
I think TwkCL is the only solution for Hermes now.

Well, thats exactly what is wrong - you see, you take screenshots, that doesnt capture actual micro-lamp layout on your LCD screen - and this is what ClearType uses to actually _enhance_ resolution. To correctly see it, you should take _photos_ of screen
Read the Wikipedia page, you'll understand it It it would work properly, landscape one would be different from portrait - in landscape LCD triplets go in "vertical" way relatively to the text, while in portrait they go in horizontal way relatively to the text.

the correct tweak is HKLM/System/GDI /ClearTypeSettings and setting the onoffrotatation dword from 1 to 0
I myself just realized after your post that the key people had been changin doesn't exist, and it hadn't been mentioned to create one...no wonder people were sayin they couldn't find it, and it will revert back to 1 after a few resets anyhow, like you mentioned.

After much gnashing of teeth and fudging around with registry settings, I agree that TwkCL in startup seems to be the only way to get ClearType in landscape mode currently....

But none of these solutions does not work with AKU 3.3...
Edit: Works, works,... Need to
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \System\GDI\ROTATION] "LandscapeMode"=dword :00000000
and copy TwkCL to startup.

Any tester for virtual keyboard for HD2 ubuntu

hi,
developers had done good job poting ubuntu to htc leo thanks all.
i installed ubuntu on my htc without any and work great but onn such small display i have not found any suitable keyboard so i decide to write a keyboard myself.
keyboard is almost done but my leo was broken last week so i cannot test it.
if sombody can test and give back feedback i can send him and work togather.

Sorry to hear about your HD2, have PMed you

file uploaded
if anybody need file can be download from
world-call-trade.com/keyboard
1 download to your home folder of where you want.
2 extrect with command tar -zxf TouchKeyBoard.tar.gz
it will create a folder name TouchKeyBoard, in the folder TouchKeyBoard should be 2 files TouchKeyBoard binary and TouchKeyBoard.png.
3 run from same folder ./TouchKeyBoard
it is written in c and gtk you should not have any problem running on gnome desktop if you have any trouble please let me know i will try to resolv.
there in no F key and some symbols are also missing i can make it on if we need.
my goal is creating a good keyboard as android keybord and after then a functional call and sms system over ubuntu desktop.
ps i am new here so cannot post externel links add http &www befor link

I am using ubuntu 10.10 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1025499 running from sd CM9 android
keys are as follows
qwertyuiop returns 789-=[];' and one other char like ' but I can't it.
asdfghjkl returns abcdefghi
zxcvbnm returns opqrstu
1234567890 returns nothing except 8,9 and 0 returns 0,1 and 2 respectively
Shf button just adds a lowercase m before the above letters.
This could be due to VNC or specific ubuntu build.
will try using Ubuntu 0.3a and mouse.
The key windows are a bit small and should me made bigger within the keyboard window, because the main problem with any onscreen keyboard is the sensitivity of the touchscreen.
A maximise/minimise toggle button would be handy because the actual buttons are tiny.
Also a text window at the top of the keyboard showing the last line of text would be useful (like old typewriter software), then you could maximise the keyboard window to fill the screen without having to check your spelling in the document.
Best of luck with your projects

thanks for testing,
i will try to make change as you suggest and up load as soon as finish.
i used us_en char set may you are using dirfrent i will check also that.
please do a faver if you can some pics from v0.3.
thanks againg.

Have attached screenshot.
All buttons seem to work as they should using 0.3, so must have been different default keyboard in 10.10.
Note the keyboard was "always on top" and the tray buttons were grey

hi,
sorry for late responce i was rewriting everything from scratch.
now it should work on any desktop running xserver and gtk.
i have ported linux to my poor samsung 551 for testing in vnc.
samsung have very low screen resolution 400x240 but keyboard work as expected.
changes:
1. fonts are now more bigger and bold.
2. added configuration file buttons and size are configurable.
3. now there are 2 versions 1 for arm and another for x86.
please let me where i can add min/max button.
out of topic:
is there any port for samsung 551 or samsung 5510?
if no i have ported i will open a new thread if someone need.

Thank you for your work
Keyboard is a big threat in Linux :/

hi,
please test it if you can.
let me know if you need any help.

Hi ashgi, looking good so far.
It still needs a maximise/minimise button. I tried full-screen mode and couldn't get out. There seems to be no Function buttons either, so that I could do ALT F3.
Menu is good idea though

hi Robbie P,
thanks for testing again.
as i asked please give me advice where i can put a min/max button.
last row ramain same on all three pages so we should put a button on last row but there is no space for new button please sombody let me know witch button from last row should be put on another page (a button that less in use) i will try to add another page for missing keys.
but we should finlize first page.

hi,
uploaded 2 new files.
added min/max button.
added F keys please check in Num fkeys.
added missing symbols.
now we have more space on fkey page please let me know if you want add some more keys.
please test new version.

Looks good, m/M button in good position.
The "<" button returns a ">"
There seems to be a small delay between keypress and the colour changing on the button.
Have you thought further on having a toggled text box on the top of the keyboard window showing the last line of typed text. I think this would be a good idea, you could then maximise the keyboard without having to see what you have just typed, and no need to re-arrange windows for best view on such a small screen.

hi,
i am on debian on debian "<" ">" working as expected.
now tested on ubuntu use difrent keysum uploded new file for ubuntu please check if it work.
i will try to add oneline text editor but with toggle key because everybody may not use this feture.

hi,
uploaded new version 0.12
added toggle text box box.
you can access OBD (On Board Display) from Num fkey OBD.
removed ubuntu version added option "dist" in configuration file.
OBD have MAX. 50 words after 50 it will clear display and start from beginning
it have no effect on actual program where you are writing.
Enter key also clear display.
WARNING: OBD display as you type in clear text even PASSWORDS so use on you own risk.
i am not RESPONSIBLE if your girlfriend read you PASSWORDS
Please test and let me know how it works.
Download TouchKeyBoard from http://www.world-call-trade.com/keyboard/

Will it support russian localization?

hi a4necromant,
i am currently working on localization if you can provide translation i will send you header file.
option for switching lang is added to configuration file.

I like the obd
I was thinking text would start on the Right hand side and as letters are typed the words would scroll to the left until they disappeared or reached 50 letters or a return key was pressed. But that might be tricky to code. And others may not like or use it. Possibly changeable font size in obd?Or proportional to window size?
<> is fine now.
Well done again

[TIP] Adjusting DPI without root

How to adjust your DPI without root, I believe the current DPI is around 300 I could be wrong.
To adjust the DPI follow the steps below, THIS DOES NOT REQUIRE ROOT.
Open settings and scroll all the way down to About
Open Software Information
Tap the build number quickly a couple times till it says "You're now a developer"
Head back into the main settings page and open the new Developer Options
Enable USB debugging
Install ADB on your computer (there are plenty of tutorials out there if you don't know how)
Start ADB and check if you see your device by typing
Code:
adb devices
If you see your phone go ahead and type
Code:
adb shell wm density 250
Reboot your phone to apply the effects system wide.
250 is the DPI set which I think looks the best for me. Adjust how you like it
NOTE: IT WILL LOOK WEIRD AT FIRST, REBOOT YOUR PHONE!

This is a great method. Use it often. Couple more commands:
Code:
adb shell wm density reset (set to default)
adb shell wm size 1080x1920 (emulate whatever resolution)
adb shell wm size reset (set to default)

What Screen Resolution have you chosen?

I noticed in the pics from your review consisted of smaller icons. I am assuming you changed the DPI to 250. I would like to know if you have tinkered with your screen resolution as well. If yes can you show us some screenshots? Does that have any other benefits like battery performance and processing speed?

Yes, you're correct the dpi was changed. There's no performance gain I see. I do this so I can fit more on the screen at once within apps, while browsing etc... For me this is half the value of an HD device - you can shrink stuff down to fit 2x as much, but tiny text still remains comfortably legible.
This can also be done within terminal emulator. For me, not successful unless entering su.

nice way to adjust animations on your phone..its now fast without the animation by the way i need help i accidentally touch the Logger Buffer Sizes....its under settings..developer options...scroll down you will see. logger buffer sizes...now there are number to choose from..64k..256k...1m...4m...16m.... now would like to ask if what is your default value in your phone"? want to do default...whats the diffence it do when you change those settings 64...256...etc....tnx

thanks...got it...it just goes to default by itself when closing developer option......

This is pretty cool, is there an adb command to readout the density what ever it's currently set at?
I ended up at 390, it gives a nice 5x5 grid.

Thanx, work fine! A little notice: Asus Powermanagment end in force closed when you change the DPI. Went back to orig. 480 and it works, when you need it
And next big issue Swift key doenst work with changed DPI. When changed i saw only a few very!! big letters. Keyboard not useable.

Thanks OP!
The issue with swiftkey is well known and documented, just search Google for it (XDA says I don't have enough posts to post links yet). It looks like there's a fix, but it requires root. I switch to the Google keyboard and it works fine with modified DPI.
FYI, density setting of 460 is the lowest (stock is 480) that will keep the widget width taking up the whole screen for wide widgets. Makes everything a little sharper than stock, which was needed.

The hardware keys below the screen also stop working when the screen resolution is changed.

Try a different DPI. 480 is extreme and some apps simply won't work properly at such a high setting.

After doing this, how to revert to the original one???

NST slideshow

Does anyone know how to invoke the slideshow (and how to get out of it).

Do you mean demo mode -> com.nook.partner.daydream.DayDream?
Maybe try:
Code:
adb shell am start -n com.nook.partner.daydream.DayDream
(I don't have partner.apk running so I can't tell immediately.)

No, that doesn't do it. ADB returns the error: Bad component name: com.nook.partner.daydream.DayDream
I found this in another post for DISabling demo mode (thought that might be useful....):
"--- turn your Nook ON
--- go to Settings - Screen - on Screen window press-and-hold top-right button AND same time keep tapping the "Screen" caption (on a top of display)
--- Demo Mode will pop up on your display
--- undo 'Toggle the demo mode'
--- now to activate "normal" mode switch off-and-on your Nook !"
This does, indeed make a third entry appear under "Screen" (and greys out the screen timeout option), but checking the toggle demo mode option doesn't seem to do anything so I guess there is additional magic, some odd button combination or a secret handshake, dance, etc., that actually starts demo mode. That knowledge remains unknown to this mortal. Powering down/restarting, rebooting or putting the screen to sleep and reawakening (I didn't try a kiss...) did not do anything. And it just went to sleep on its own right now and on awakening was still in normal mode
I know there is a db entry where the mode can presumably be turned on or off, but the same requirement for additional unknown falderol may apply to actually get the show started. Hmm.
Edit: OK, so I took a look at the packages. Perhaps the one you suggested is for the newer Nooks? Anyway, there is com.bn.demomode so I tried a similar command to the one you suggested: am start -n com.bn.demomode.DemoMode. I got the same error as before (Bad component name).
HOWEVER.....as I was typing this the device just started going through the slides!? So I have discovered one thing already. It's not going to work for what I had hoped. It apparently only reads png images and there is no control over the slides at all, just a relentless circle of the images.
The good news is that the instructions for getting out of demo mode work

The slides are resources inside partner.apk:

If you want a real slide show, it's probably better to use an app.

Again, I think those might be for a device other than the original NST. There seems to be no partner.apk on the NST and the images for demo mode are in /system/media/slideshow/standard/default but I agree with you about the need for something else. I was just checking to see if a local resource could be harnessed before I looked for something external.
