Launch app when sliding out keyboard? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps

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...

S2U2 and Voice Dialer

I can't use voice dialer when S2U2 locks phone, is there a way around this? I like the S2U2 application, but when I am driving and need to make a phone call via bluetooth handfree I can't, because s2u2 block the voice dialer.
I did look for a solutions via the search engine and in the s2u2 thread, but no luck thus far.
which device?
which ROM?
which voice dial app?

Thanks for your response,
HTC 8925 (Tilt)
Dutty's Touch AT&t beta 2
Cyberon Voice Speed Dial V1.2 build 070626
The newest version of S2U2 v0.95 offers a solution to this problem by adding the ability to use exceptions to temporarily disable S2U2.
1) Install the new version.
2) Run iLock2 to close the application.
3) Use a registry editor:
Under \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\A_C\S2U2, find an open ExceptionEXE(0-9) (STRING). I used ExceptionEXE3. Enter the value: "SDDialer.exe" (this is the application that runs when you press the button on your bluetooth headset).
4) Run iLock2 to restart the application and you're done.
Thanks to tompol for discovering this solution. I first tried it by entering the value: "Voice Speed Dial.lnk", but this didn't work.
Hello,
i have another problem with S2U2 on my Kaizer, and i think i created it but cannot get through it. After i did some changes on the S2U2 settings now every time the lock goes on and even if i open the settings i get a black screen and can not do anything. If i press the power on button to turn off the screen and then on, i get the S2U2 screen but frozen, with out any animation! I have tried to remove and re-install the application but i get the same response from the program. Could someone give me some help, because i really like the application but can not use it...
TIA,
Nikos.

did you turn on the directdraw option or safe mode option?
When you uninstall an app, it leaves behind the registry entries. As soon as you reinstall the app, those settings are in affecct again. Uninstall the app, use a registry editor to remove the following key, soft reset, then try to reinstall:
The key to remove is HKCU\Software\A_C
Ok, I had the exact same problem, the problem is indeed with D3D option, you need to disable it. As soon as it is off and the settings are saved, the program works fine once again, and smoother then previous version.
This part is gonna be hard to explain... but here it goes...
First thing to do is run ilock so that when u turn the screen off it doesn't start S2U2.
When you open the settings the screen freezes, like the kaiser crashed, but if you move down and you turn the screen off and on, you'll see the menu scrolled down.
Basically that means u're working blind, changes do occur but u can't see, so the process is to move it down, turning the screen off and on sistematically until u see the d3d option and turn it off, then save it.
Hope I explained myself enough.
Takes some work, but doesn't require registry tweaking and other settings are kept.
Keep posted on results.
Cheers, Esko

Thank you both for your fast and details replies!!!
It was indeed the direstdraw option. It was easier for me to try eskostar's method, especially since i had tried the same blind procedure but i did not figure the trick with running the ilock first!!!
Everything worked out great!!! Now i can use this excellent program again!!!
Thank you again!!!
Cheers, Nikos
I have this problem. When I start S2U2 and miss call screen remains as it is when someone call (caller's number and slide to answer or two buttons with green and red phone). Whatever I push or click nothing happens. So I must softreset or turn off and on my Kaiser. Some tips?
Sorry I dont have that issue. However my problem with this version of S2U2 is when SLide to Answer is Active you can still use the Hardware Keys to answer!
Anyone no how to deactivate the Hardware keys during Slide to Answer?

if any of the apps in the exception list are running, not just in the foreground, even if they are running in the background, then [email protected] will not enable. Check your exception list, make sure none of those apps are currently running, then try again. If you still have issues after that, then it's with S2U2, not the exception list.

Very well done.
Apparently Internet Explorer was still running, and as soon as I closed that it ticked off. May consider removing that key, as I don't see why I would need it.
Thanks.

Good deal, glad it worked for you....
when I install S2U2 (i go thru phases where I want it, then phases of "get it off my Tilt") the first thing I do is remove the exception for PIE.
FYI.... Likewise, if you run any of the Cube or TouchFlo variants out there, you will need to put an exception into the TouchFlo settings for S2U2. What happens if you don't is when you try to slide to unlock (or slide to answer) you end up invoking the Cube or TouchFlo, instead of S2U2. Just an FYI for you....
Thanks for the tip. Am still looking into wicked programs so far, only had it two weeks and it's already been through the mod ringer.

that's the way to do it. I've been using PPC devices for years and years and everytime I get a new one, I try every hack, reg edit, tweak, and app possible.

[Q]Accelerometer setup???

Hi all
Quick question from me. Is it possible to change the settings for the accelerometer in terms of sensitivity or time delay?? The reason i ask is that when using opera when i turn the phone to veiw it 'widescreen' the picture takes a good 8-10 seconds to flip change. Often i get bored of waiting so turn the phone ninety degrees again but as soon as i turn the handset portrait again the screen changes to landscape - quite annoying. I guess this may be down to slow response within the opera software??
any help would be much appreciated
Steve
I know this is an old thread, but I have the same problem with Opera and was not able to find a post regarding it. Anyone find a way to fix this speed?
Good post!! Please help
its a good question sitting on my mind for a few days...
I have another question about rotating..
is it possible to define that the window of sms will be automaticly turn to be on widescreen and locked?
So i can write sms only on wide screen without trying to make the screen rotate..

Don't know what you mean by locking the sms windows, but have a look at Gyrator for all your rotating needs
what i meant was...
that i hate writing in portrait mode (regular) because i have big fingers..
and since i dont like waiting minute or two till it rotates my screen...
It would be nice to have a window of sms and mail to be auto rotated to widescreen with no option to be on portrait mode.

I know what you meant and I also facing that problem too. I only need the landscape view when in SMS.
I did try on Gsen but don't know how to make it work. Maybe I should give a try to Gyrator.
Gsen is very simple
You just open the gsen config.
there you can define whatever you like.
better you just visit the thread of this app, its sticky..
there you can find all the explainations you need..
I have a solution for you, just was searching something similar and found this Gsen application. The BEST gsen for diamond Gsensor Utility (Flip_it) with landscape manila support, ThanX WildBerry Team
LINK FLIP IT
You can decide what application and how (0, 90, 180 or 270°)
I suggest you to install it
go to option:
1) Click on "add new application"
2) write tmail.exe
3) select 90° and 270°
and your sms will open only in landscape mode
bye bye

[SOLVED] How do I disable automatic screen rotation?

How do I disable screen rotation on my Touch Diamond, specifically when using Opera?
I've tried Gyrator 2 but to no avail.
Solution:
Not elegant but...
Change registry HKLM\Software\Opera\GSensor\IdleTime to a very large number like 1000000.
not 100% sure but try deleting the gsensor.lnk file in windows\startup folder
I saw in one of the threads that even the phone dialer screen rotates. This doesn't occur in my phone. Does this happen in your phones??

Not as standard - only Opera (and one other that I have forgot about) rotates. However if, like me, you use GSen then other apps (you can choose which) will rotate. My dialer screen rotates as does my TT6 for example.
Thanks!!
I read reviews on Gsen & Gyrator still having some teething problems in this same forum. I don't mind to wait further before things like these gets ironed out.
If you are aware of something that is error free so far, appreciate a lead.

But couldnt find one.
I see you managed to auto-rotate your tomtom.
is that possible with the iGo8?
I've tried adding that line in the gsen config but it still doesnt work.
I have had no problem with Gsen and it works fine for me. I can't answer if it works with Igo because I don't use it, but it works with TTN6. Having said that if I turn a corner sharply at the same time as hitting a bump it goes back to portrait for a few seconds.

just a guess, but are you browsing Opera / Photo Album whilst lying down in bed, perchance?
i'm having the same issue, it's really annoying, no idea why they couldn't have a settings menu to toggle auto / manual.

Yes. But sometimes it also happens if I am carrying it and accidently tilt it.
Solved.
Edited registry HKLM\Software\Opera\GSensor\IdleTime to a very large number like 1000000.
This auto rotating has been drving me mad. People all were suggesting gsen and other utilities but they all are awkward. In the end this simeple trick did it.
Like Apple was the first to get the touchscreen done right after 20 years of touchscreen history, Apple also did the auto-rotate right. With an iPhone/iPodTouch, it won't turn more than twice, so you can easily avoid unwanted rotation. Why Windows Mobile develops cannot figure out simple solutions like that?
Thanks for posting this fantastic workaround!
I saw this thread weeks ago but lost it and couldn't find it again despite my best efforts with the search function & google.
Here's a CAB for it (my 2nd ever!):
Thanks alot .d
just a little FYI - the cab doesn't work for me...the program (Opera) still auto rotates. I have tried the manual hack too.
Any more info?

Found the solution! I'm so happy. I'm done with this stupid automatic rotation:
The trick about HKLM\Software\Opera\GSensor\IdleTime need to be done but you also need to remove in HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\WhiteList
the opera value.
I did the same for google maps and it works perfectly
I don't know about the rest but for HTC HD it's VERY SIMPLE!
HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\AutoRotation = 0 (Default = 2)
My Problem was mostly with Dialer.No more screen rotation for me!

HD Mini - Opera 10 Mobile autorotate disabled [solved]
Thanks Davey101. Your cab file works well with the HTC HD Mini to disable the annoying autorotate feature in Opera Mobile 10.

landscape mode

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.

Need Gyrator 2 Help

I've been using Gyrator for some time, but I've never really gotten a hang of adding exceptions and modifying the original settings. For example, I would like to add an exception so that the display never goes to landscape mode during a phone call. I added a new event, I selected "phone" as the application, and under orientation, I checked only "portrait". However, the phone still rotates to landscape during phone calls. Any ideas, or a general walkthrough on how to work with gyrator? I've been to the creator's site and I've searched google, but nothing too helpful has come up. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks
Instead of phone use dialog.

Just type it in.
Got it. Thanks
I didn't. With "dialog" as application and "potrait" checked my screen stil rotates as was it paid to do so. I have promoted the event to before rotate.
Anyone knowing how to hide Gyrator from the tasklist (to make it easyer to stop all running apps.)?
