I'm having some trouble finding an executable that rotates the screen.
I found this post, but when i attempt to use the software (extracted the exe out of the cab and ran). It does not work.
I am interested in setting a hotkey to rotate the screen with the slider closed so that i can use tomtom "wide-screen."
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Matt
download facade. it contains the function to rotatescreen!!
Thanks.
Got done solved.

The screen rotate has been missing for quite some time, and no matter what I do to the registry its not showing up again after any soft resets. I looked in my startup, and there's no rotate.dll or screenrotate.dll that was used to launch it previously if I'm not mistaken.
If someone could check (I used memmaid), and attach the dll or exe, I'd be most grateful
what you got at startup folder????
Try this little app. Its from the hermes collection of hacks and tweaks. I used it on my XDAIIi and it works.

doesn't work on mine, said "not compatible with this version"
Hi guys is there a tool that allows me to map my favorite app to launch when I slide out the key board?
I dont know of any tool. But have you looked into mortscripts?
yes I can currently use mortscript to rotate screen to landscape and then launch my preffered app however the problem is getting a script to launch app when screen rotates to landscape upon kb opening? any clues anyone?
here is a example script I use to rotate screen to landscape and launch a app:
Rotate(90)
Runwait( "\Program Files\SecondToday\SecondToday.exe" )
Rotate(0)
I'm working on it, with the help of no2chem and Rogro82.
You need to catch a Windows Message and then you can execute an application.
Although I think it will trigger on rotate as opposed to on KB slide.
EDIT
Got the basic's working, however it fires the event on Open and Close .
I'll keep on with it...

Good work DaveShaw at least it's a start, any chance of you posting the script so that I can have crack at it as I have ample time at the moment!
I have touch HD version 1.198310 WWE
Radio 1.09
I saw a youtube clip showing that no matter which application, the sensor is able to rotate to landscape mode. Especially useful when writing SMS and text, since the keyboard becomes larger (in landscape mode) and buttons are bigger. In my case the device, when rotated, does not move to landscape mode, except in these apps: youtube, opera and viewing pictures.
how to solve this issue?
Is there an updated ROM to fix it?
I wish my device goes into landscape when I rotate and when writing texts (SMS or word)
Thanks

Hi, thanks for the cab. Unfortunately, I get a message telling me my .net compact framework is not new enough to run this (and Shapps Advance Config too) but when I attempt to download .net it tells me it's the latest.
Be grateful for advice here. Do I need to instal an older .net to run both these apps?
Many thanks
No you need .net CF 3.5
If you ever installed CF 3.5 before you can push it to your phone again with the application installer in Active Sync or Vista Mobile center

Hi - many thanks for the reply...trying it now.
To clarify, CF 3.5 installs on your Windows PC and then pushes to your mobile.
If you look in:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft.NET\SDK\CompactFramework\v3.5\WindowsCE
You'll also find the cabs seperatly.
It works! Many thanks for the advice Jan.
Net Framework v3.5
For those looking, heres .net CF 3.5
ok now, i just tried gyrator 2 with .net CF 3.5 installed. i open up gyrator 2, the window turn to landscape in that application, when i go to other application and gyrator 2 is still running, the screen wont turn. i try to go back to gyrator 2 and hit minimize then launch other application, same thing.
any ideas?
i found gsen works. there is another program called rotate me, also works. i can make all program menus turn landscape, not today screen. anybody can solve this?
Screen will not rotate
I've tried gyrator and gsen and it will not auto rotate for me. My main objective is to get sms in landscape mode to make typing easier and quicker. Any other programs or reg edits I can possible use ?

Have you tried Change Screen? Just select the default rotation angles you prefer then hit save, EVERYTHING will rotate that way as well. If you don't want specific apps to rotate, you can manually specify the apps names and the angle its allowed to rotate to. If you don't know the name of the app, just turn the function 'show app name' then run the program and the name you need to use will be displayed. Really easy to use.

Hi all,
already searched the forum and even tried Google, but it's not my friend this time.
I don't really like the standard hourglass on my Raphael, I would like it to be some more in TF3D style or at least without the white background.
I found out you can change it with a Marshall's Waiting Cursor program, but the developer's site is down and there is no other place you can download the program as far as I know.
Is there another useful program to change it? Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks in advance!
Hi,
His site seems to be working on my end...
I don't know any other software that does the same. I uses Marshall's program for a while on my Tilt, seemed to be working ok. The occasional glitch though.
Cheers,
Cacti
i second MWC2.

Thanks, the site works here now too. Strange.
I'll try it, since it's the only way to change the cursor. Is it so hard to create such cursors?
Wisbar Advance also has the option of customizing the wait cursor. However it is not freeware.
The cursor images/frames are stored in one of tthe dl's(or dll.mui.*) in Windows folder. Open the dll in PC using some resource editor(PE Explorer or Resource Tuner for example) and change those bitmaps. Copy it to your Windows folder back using Resco Explorer(this is the only one,which can overwrite ROM files) and restart.
Anyone that's using MWC2 ever notice their device randomly turning on?
Last time I tried it my screen would come on out of nowhere. Once I uninstalled it the problem went away.

after you uninstalled it, did your cursor go back to the default?
Hi all.
I have recently applied the Reg Edits for Excel, Word and Google Maps so that they auto rotate to landscape when I tilt the phone over. The problem is that they then don't rotate back to portrait when I tilt the phone back. They stay locked in the landscape mode until I close the programme and restart it.
Any ideas?
I have also noticed that my G Sensor in the WM Settings doesn't seem to calibrate properly. I set the phone on a level surface and tap 'calibrate', the spirit levels level of at centre and then flip back to their extremes. The phone then needs to be tilted at 30 degrees off portrait to get the bubble in the centre of the spirit level. I notice that there are loads of g sensor settings in HKLM/Software/HTC/HTCSensor/GSensor but I don't know what they affect.
Any thoughts?
Many thanks.
Try using TD2 Tools; Rotation Manager.
Would rather not thanks.
Have tried a few of the 'all in one' settings tools and find that they are a bit too intrusive and you would have to install several of them to get the results you want. Would rather tweak things using individual reg edits.
Anyone?
TD2 Tools
I've found that Word doesn't rotate using TD2 Tools (and have asked about this on the relevant thread), though Excel works fine. Others have also remarked on this.
I'd be really grateful for details of the relevant reg edits (though I'm sure they are mentioned elsewhere) so I can try and persuade Word to rotate!
Thanks.
ChangeScreen can rotate Word.
Word rotating now!
Thanks. I found instructions for the registry changes at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=589570&highlight=rotating+apps+sensor and got it to work.
