TomTom in Landscape mode - working in RH but not in LH??? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps

Hi!
Apologies if this has been posted before - I have looked, honest, but can't seem to find anything...
I upgraded my O2 XDA Stellar to WM6.1 via the official O2 ROM yesterday, things went fine and I am happy with the stability so far (although not a lot has actually changed OS wise - except, I'm glad to see the official Remote Desktop terminal in there!)
The problem I have is that TomTom 6 will not start if I have the screen rotated to the left - the same orientation as if I was going to use the keyboard. It starts up, the splash screen comes on then it goes back to the desktop. It works fine in portrait, or even if rotated to the right???
Any idea's??
Kind regards
Paul D
Again - apologies if this has been answered elsewhere - I honestly couln't find it.

I had the same problem, not sure why. But I put a copy of L26 Diamond V9 rom on my Kaiser and TT6 crashed every time I opened the keyboard.
Ithink the problem manifested itself in other ways..for example if I change the set up for "clear type" in landscape mode any text displayed in the predictive text window whilst typing an email or text was blank and some menu's lost their text. Anyway....
The only way I found to fix the problem was to upgrade to Tomtom 7 with a UK map. Works perfectly in portrait and landscape.
PM me if you need a pointer on upgrading.

same problem for me after upgradung to wm6.1
I notice that if screen is already turn befire launching tt6, it works.
Note also that when opening keyboard, the rotation of thedisplay is at the oposite of the software rotation...
Maybe a problem depending on the rotation of the display

Definately a strange one - gave up in the end and went with TT7 as per Ben's advice (cheers mate!)
Thanks

New HTC Rom, Display slower than before?

I just installed the new HTC Rom on my TyTN II. At first, it seemed snappy. Once I installed some Today plugins, switching from landscape to portrait and back still took about 2 seconds, but it didn't redraw the screen as in the past, the new layout (after 2 seconds) just appeard all intact. Seems they are building the screen in memory before displaying double buffering) it. This made it appear "snappier".
I installed PocketCM v1.5, which was always very fast for me. With the updated ROM the contact list still scrolled vertically just fine, but the side to side transitions tear and stutter.
Is anyone else noticing this behavior?
lol thats why I have stayed away from official releases untill I hear a forum full of happy XDA-ers
Well, some of us have to be the first to try these things out for the rest of you.
hahaha i used to be like that. I remember the flash happu days lol, but recently ive seen nothing but problems with official releases so have given up FTM
I currently use Duttys WM 6.1 WWe dated 04/16/08 and its the fastest release ive used so far
Hi,
try to change registry value on in touch flow settings - to value more then 200.
I am using value 900 - and machine is pretty quick even in the newest WM6.1
I also think this is a lot slower. Especially when opening programs and such wish I'd stayed with custom rom from sleuth. In fact might flash back.

It's already set to 400. The horizontal transitions in PocketCM are not based on a finger swipe, but by tapping an icon...so the Touchflo settings for that aren't the issue. The transitions stutter and tear without touchflo.

Landscape Problem

So I recently flashed my ROM and everything is working just fine except I'm having one problem.
I don't know but when I'm in Landscape mode, a lot of my text turn invisible or the same color as the white background, so I can't read anything I'm typing in IE, Contacts Search, and some tabs don't show any text. I tried searching and couldn't find a fix, I was hoping White Screen was the same problem I had, but it seems do be different, if I can get a little bit of help it would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
Did you flashed any other ROM made available here?
I flashed it through I believe Kaiser Diamond V2, I'm just going to it over again, then I'll leave an update.
I think I saw something about that ROM (or perhaps it was the first version?) that had that kind of problem...
Leo's V3 seems to be much better...
I'm downloading that right now...
Ahh I see, I didn't notice there was a V3, and it clearly says it fixed the text missing in landscape. Thanks for the help, the Wiki didn't have that version!
I got a similar problem with the official 6.1 update. The cause was cleartype activated in landscape mode. Once it's deactivated, it works well. But if you know a tip to have cleartype AND the text correctly displayed, it'll be great
Bump: I would also love to see this working again.
I have the Official HTC WM6.1 for Australian TyTN II's and if Cleartype is enabled in Landscape much of the text is not displayed (especially on menus).
Any Ideas?

For us Opera mobile 9.5 lovers!!! Updated build Opera.v9.5.QVGA.Build.1409.WWE

edit: nice version thank you sir
edit2: I agree with everything you state in post 3.
ok, this one definitely feels good! quicker, feels more stable with certain websites that weren't as stable with the previous builds, and the animations seems much smoother. I still couldnt get f7 to work properly with youtube websites(kept freezing) But overall it seems of an upgrade!
I'm having the same issue I had with the last version posted and that is Opera will hang at the launch / splash screen and I can not kill the processes either, however I can still use the phone and launch other apps, but the splash screen stays on top. I have to soft reset to get back to normal.

its either the rom your using or its conflicting with another software.
So far this version seems like a definite improvement - the biggest being that I can now use the 'automatic full screen' option without it changing to full screen half way through typing an address on my Kaiser keyboard!
Haven't come across any bugs as yet.
initial testing shows:
- overall speed/feel increase
- addressbar doesn't auto-hide when typing w/ hardkeys in auto-minimize mode
bug: after closing out of opera in landscape mode, left my tilt in left-handed landscape mode. had to go to settings->system->display to bring it back into portrait mode.
Testing on June 29 ryncppr v6, 1.58.25.17 radio, hardspl 3.56
Bug: When using the hardware keyboard to fill in fields on a webpage, the field that is being typed in sometimes looses focus after each letter is selected on the keyboard. If the software keyboard is used, the problem does not occur.
With 8.65, i could copy the opera6 adr file that i have saved on my sd card and paste it into the opera folder to import my bookmarks after flashing, etc. This doesn't seem to work with opera 9. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Build 1184 vs 1409
In Build 1184 when I pressed an internet link in an email Opera 9.5 would load the page not PIE. With build 140p, PIE loads the page and not Opera Mobile. I have looked in the settings etc and can not find a way to make Opera Mobile my "default browser" Is this possible? If so how?
i'm still getting the missing address bar when typing on the kaiser keyboard. im still using wm6. anyone else still has the problem?

is anyone still using wm6 and having the same problem or is it just me?
I am using the Titan with windows mobile six and am also having this problem with opera mobile 9.5. Anybody with a fixed build?
Yup - my vario III on standard rom does this - I can only type one letter in from the keyboard before the focus is lost. Also it's not running as the default browser and there is no option to set this :-(
Looks lovely though....
Default Browser key:
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Shell/Rai/: DEFBROWSER/1
Note: the above key is "colon and capital 'D' together" but the board makes it into a grin icon. lol
by default, it should be ":MSPIE", you can change it to the location of OperaL.exe, generally "\windows\operal.exe"
Bug: RSSHub is no longer able to open a link, it gives the error "file http://.... cannot be opened"
Fix: RSSHub seems to be connected to pocket ie. you will need to reset all registry references back to pocket ie and THEN apply the default browser registry hack. ( soft reset after all that )

Registry change worked like a champ. Opera Build 1409 now opens when I select a link in an email. Thanks a Bunch!!! Sorry I can't help with the RSSHub issue.
Dissapearing Address Bar
I am using WM 6.1 (one of Duttys hybrid ROMs) and still ahve the issue with the sddress bar dissapearing before I am finished typing.
I still believe it may be related to Opera not recognizing the pull out (hard) keyboard, or perhaps it is related to the Diamond XT9 keyboard in my ROM....
Any info. appreciated!

[Q] Can not get phone to NOT wake up when text comes in

I have searched and searched, so far all that have the same issue as myself have not had an answer that works. I am bringing this to a new thread, in the hopes it will trigger some ideas on how to fix this.
I do know how to use the search system. I am usually a lurker, having the Diamond (NOT Pro) for a little over a week.
I have tried a number of different things to try to STOP the screen from waking up on a new text message. I have tried everything except the older version 3.2.. of the advanced config utility (I am reluctant to downgrade to older version as I have changed many things and have noticed that if you switch from one config utility from another will not work the same way, example is with TF3dconfig I removed the weather tab and forgot to reset all when I uninstalled it for the 3.3 version of advanced config. I try to re-activate the weather tab in 3.3 and it will not take-alas, another issue for another day). I have a Sprint version of the diamond. The DisableSMSWakeUpEvent does not work on my sprint diamond. It does not show up in the registry and when I create it, it still does nothing. This seems like such a silly thing to not have the option of adjusting in the oem configuration. The Pro has it, why not the non-pro version.
Many thanks for anyone that has a suggestion on how to get this screen to STAY OFF when a text comes in. Perhaps even a lock on incoming text that will be unlocked by the light sensor.
I have also discovered that TF3D does not like gsensor rotation. I wanted the text message to be landscape. Tried Gyrator 2, could not get it to reliably not rotate when a call is active. Tried changescreen, great easy to use, but TF3D overrides this. It works the first time or two, then the TF3D changes it to portrait. I did find that adding a rotate command to a registry entry (found in the forum) then assigned the 'green' phone button long hold to rotate. Works well and is easy as sometimes I do not want it to rotate.
Sorry for the run on, many thanks in advance for the help and insight.

Next? -->HTC Diamond Pro (I am not missing keyboard as much as I thought I would with TF3D)
HTC Diamond (WM6.1)
HTC Touch (WM6.1 ack! lasted a week)
HTC PPC6800 Mogul (WM6 upgraded WM6.1)

A bump to see if anyone has a solution, many thanks for taking a look.

Tytn II landscape display issues

Hi everyone. Heres my problem:
- I have a tytn with custom rom. Yesm i have tried countless of them and none seems to fix this issue. Everytime i switch my phone to landscape (open keyboard) the display goes funny, showing half screen and other menus only show their titles. Any ideas?
I'm going to guess you are using M2D? If so then M2D was ported from a phone with no hardware keyboard so that's why not all tabs show and the display is half screen on homescreen...
I may be totally wrong as not alot to go on
I used bhars, shifu, RED, Pqap (or something like that) and many other, including M2D yes. It seems to be a problem with the the TouchFlo software. Last night i flashed it with Tilt original ROM and it works perfectly, maybe because theres no Touchflo? Isnt there a way of having my touchflo working perfectly? On any ROM?
No as said above it's ported from a device without a hardware keyboard so as been hacked for landscape, with all the functionality it brings in portrait and the looks too it's something we don't fess about
Oh, it was touchflo 3d. Just figured that Tytn 2 has a problem with video drivers, hence the visual problems. Im at the moment using the software of Tytn 1 (which doesnt have a touchflo 3d). But thanks for the fast replies =).
