Switching to Landscape exits programs? - Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps

I seem to be having an issue now and then when I start typing in landscape mode, the phone switches back out to the landscape home screen. I have to switch back to the app while in landscape mode in order for me to continue.
Is there a way to stop this from happening?
Thanks!

thank God i've found someone who has similar problem like me! hopefully someone can guide us how to solve this problem.. many thanks!

I get the same problem, it does it in all different programs.

yeah, but it's odd because it only happens after some time of usage. Once I restart the phone, it seems to be ok again.

Well I must say that's why I've quit using RomeOS' ROM's, I had the same issue but not on the PROVEN ROM so I'll continue to use that one...

I have this problem, too. I'm using the stock att rom. Instead of rebooting to fix, you can just disable and re-enable tf3d.
It's also worth noting that a guy I work with just got a new fuze, and he has this problem as well. He hasn't installed anything on the phone yet, so that proves it's a problem with tf3d.

How i fixed mine...
This happend to my when I tried to install a different
HTCvolumeControl.dll
Maybe your rom has a bad HTCvolumeControl.dll
Try deleting HTCvolumeControl.dll and the rom will re-create after a restart.
If that doesn't work... maybe the rom has a bad HTCvolumeControl.dll

i have the same problem.. and i havent installed anything on my phone yet!

i have the same problem too,(i am running the stock att rom) mine switches back to portrait them back to landscape and back again a couple of time before stopping, i tried restarting a it works fine for a couple of minutes then it happens again, any help will be much appreciated

it has something to do with the customer taskbar icons, i only fixed it after removing sdkcerts, and the custom icons i had.

Thanks for sharing.. Would you mind to explain more detail?.. where is the "sdkcerts" ?

yeah, share information with us =)

I can't believe more people aren't talking about this problem. I deleted HTCvolumeControl.dll with no luck. I also uninstalled sdkcerts and even my custom icons. The problem still comes back. A second guy I work with got a fuze, and his has this problem straight out of the box. So that's 3 that I personally know of.
To clarify, the programs don't actually close, they just lose focus when the keyboard is opened, and then go into the background as the landscape menu comes to the front. Today, I noticed that opera goes to the background when I rotate my phone... the screen turns to landscape, then the task bar shows up, then it kicks back to tf3d.
Another way to test if the problem is happening is to goto the messaging tab, click to create a new message, then just open the keyboard. Sometimes I start typing, and then the phone comes up accepting the keys I'm typing. Then the landscape menu comes up on top of that.
I also changed my registry to disable landscape mode in tf3d. I thought that solved the problem (I didn't miss having the stupid landscape menu), but it still happened, only when I opened the keyboard, the phone came up. If I didn't hit any keys, it would disappear and whatever program I was in would come back. That was only slightly less annoying than before.
The past 2 days, I've been constantly testing to see if the problem was happening (restarting tf3d makes it stop for a while), and it didn't happen for 2 straight days. It started again today, and I hadn't touched my phone since I had last tested for the problem. In between that time, I received 2 emails. I didn't test before I opened the emails, but one had a link that I clicked on, and then the problem happened in Opera when I rotated the phone. So something happened when I either received the email, opened the email, or clicked the link to goto Opera.
I'm sure if we can pinpoint exactly what is causing this problem to start happening after a restart, we can fix it... or figure out some sort of workaround. So to anyone that has this problem, please post as many details as you can about what apps you were running or anything that could help determine the root cause of the problem. Only then can a fix be developed. I'm already digging all over the registry trying to find something to change that would fix this, but it's hard to fix something when you don't know what's causing the problem.
Is this only a fuze problem or are other TPs are experiencing this??

just to confirm im having the same problem on the normal version of the Touch pro (stock ROM)
a little pointer too: When you want to send an sms do the following. Start new sms, open the keyboard. Then WAIT a second (dont start typing immediately). Then start typing.
For some reason this does not seem to exit my messaging. If i start typing immediately it sometimes closes

To remove sdkcerts, download the .cab here http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=67540&d=1201425248

i have a very similar problem that's been driving me crazy!!! on my TP everytime i slide out the keyboard when i have an app open in which i choose to type via the keyboard, my dialer pops up!!! The exact same thing happens as soon as i slide it back away. Very frustrating is the "g" rated way of describing this issue. FYI - even had this problem before any installations on a brand new device fresh out of the box.

yes.. i'm having that dialer problem too.. everytime i open my keyboard even in SMS mode or Opera, my dialer will pop-up.. very annoying...
i've also tried disable TF3D and use normal Today screen, the dialer problem and programs exit problem when opening the keyboard are still happen !!! wtf is wrong with the landscape mode??!! i've tried searching anything can be edited in registry but i'm too afraid i'm going to break my TP or cause me to hard reset
to all experties, pls help us...
p/s: i'm using stock ROM, for all custom made ROM users, do these problems happen to u? ...

Are there any adverse affects to removing the sdkcerts?

Messages open from the bottom?

Hi all,
Not sure what I have done here - but since installing and playing with KaiserTweak when I open and email or SMS message it opens from the bottom of the message - meaning I have to scroll back to the top to start reading it. On some short messages all I get is a blank white screen as it has scrolled down past all the text. Soft reset does nothing to help and I can find no option in KaiserTweak that seems to influence it.
Can anyone help - it is slowly driving me mad!
Thanks, Rich
I have the same problem !
Just Open KaserTweak again, search the D-Pad Scroll Navigation setting and Disable it.
That should resolve your problem
cheers!
Excellent - thanks! Worked a charm...
R
Appears to be a small problem side-effect. In calendar, in agenda view I can no longer go left-right to select the day. Tapping the day on screen also does not change anything.
Tried changing the D-Pad setting back but no luck....still broken.
Anyone got any ideas or suffered the same?
R
What sort of view are you using (day/week/month/year)? Have you also tried to re-align your screen?
Using AGENDA view, I used to be able to use the D-Pad to go left/right. This no longer works. Screen is aligned and I can select one of the days MTWTFSS but it does not change the agenda view below. If I switch to day mode then I can still not use the D-Pad but pressing the day on screen now works....
Apologies for some reason I had day/week/month/year as sub-menu's of the Agenda View. Duh. Anyway, I see what you mean, possibly a stupid suggestion but have you tried a soft-rest since turning d-pad navigation off?
I, too, used D-Pad navigation at some point, but turned it off again, and I am still able to use the D-pad in agenda view...
yeah - have soft reset several times - makes no difference now if the d-pad is set or not - guess I have upset it somehow but how I do not know - was working fine until I disabled the d-pad in kaisertweak this morning to fix the sms message opening problem....
...I feel a hard reset and re-load coming on
R
Hmmm - turned it on this morning and it is fixed???? WEIRD!! Have nto changed, installed, or moved anything. Was broken yesterday - and working today - go figure???
I fixed it with my mind... your welcome
I'm experiencing this problem as well, but I did not install any version of Kaiser Tools. I'm actually using an HTC Universal, updated with an AKU3.3 ROM (check sig for details). I can't remember when or why it started to do this (opening SMS/E-mail at bottom), but it's driving me nuts.
Does anyone know of a registry key that can be changed, or anything else that I can look at? Please let me know if you have any idea.
Thanks in advance all,

6.1 issues

Hi have upgraded my orange tytn ii over the weekend but i am having a few issues. Used the official wwe htc rom.
When i go to send a message and open the keyboard the menu is blank. Yet if i close the keyboard, the menu is there.
Also when entering the text the suggested word box is either blank or comes up in japenense or chinese. Again when i close the keyboard the words are in english?!!
The on screen keyboard is also different to the 6.0 build. The numbers are no longer present across the top. Is there any way of reverting back to this.
So far i'm not that impressed, i'm thinking of reverting back.
Any help would be great.

U need to disable cleratype in landscape. U can do it in KaiserTweak or Advanced Config Tool.
U can istall another keyboard, just find the one u want and install it.
"press OK to continue loading the contents of this page"
Is there an official, supported, safe way of going back? For now I am not recommending the upgrade:
I installed it on my TyTN II. Not good. Several problems, most seem related to Pocket Internet Explorer, an intermittent "press OK to continue loading the contents of this page" message pops up when loading some pages and when opening some email messages in the built in messaging client.
Sometimes the device enters a state in which it stops responding every few seconds, with a window of about two seconds of responsiveness. When this happens, control of the device can be regained by using a program like FdcSoft Task Manager (TaskMgr.exe) to kill PIE.
There is some difficulty in switching the phone from automatic WCDMA/GSM to GSM only, the phone setting application seems to hang.
I tried using PIEPlus to disable scripting and KaiserTweak to turn off threaded SMS thinking that it might help, but the "press ok" bug persists.
Googling around this problem seems to have popped up (pun intended) previously, well... years ago. Scary.
If anybody has found solutions to this issue please post. Thank You.

What do u mean by that?
About the screen freezes: did u install the latest spl?
"press ok to continue" SOLVED
I meant reverting to 6.0.
SPL? No. I just used the official download from HTC to upgrade the stock 6.0 that came with my Kaiser to 6.1
Anyway, I found what seems to be the solution for the annoying "press ok to continue" problem. Using a registry editor, navigate to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main and make sure BlockStaticActiveX is set to zero.
And after hard resetting the device and a full reinstall the lock-up naver came back. Very strange.
So in general I am doing good now with 6.1, except for the same garbled text problem if I slide open the keyboard when Pocket Internet Explorer has the cursor in a text field.

Opera rotation not working very well or at all

In opera browser the screen rotates very rarely or at all , I mean is not very responsive ( the G sensor ) ... but in Pictures instantly when I rotate the phone so is the picture... what do you guys think?
i got the same problem...
any1 got a clue what could be/ how to solve this?
another one reports here,
same problem, works great in Pictures, but in opera it is as slow as hell....
Had similar problem today, which led me to recalibration of Gsensor. After that i ran the Opera browser, and screen rotated much faster than before. Hope it helps...
Edit: noticed that screen rotation response is also better and faster in Photos/Album too...
done that still no joy
At the beginning I wait until the page is loaded and then rotate. It is not so responsive in the middle of the page loading process...i can live with that...
Did you guyzz try the latest Opera version?
everytime i rotate the phone... opera rotates and the phone goes back to home screen... i have to go back into opera via task manager, and its back on portrait again...
I'm having this problem too, and it's bugging the hell out of me. I've calibrated the g-sensor, but it's still not working very well. I have Opera 1938 and SwiftBL V6.0 ROM. I don't use GSEN.
To make rotation work somewhat, I have to "snap" the Diamond from straight portrait to straight landscape. I can't have it slightly tilted away from me, like I would if I had it in my lap or on a table. However, with the Diamonds image browser it works fine, which makes me think that the problem lies within Opera.
I've tried using the tweak setting long-press home button to manually rotate screen, but this kicks me out of Opera and into TF3D. In SMS it works fine, though.
Teeter works great though, and that again makes me think that it's mostly a bad integration/calibration of the g-sensor in Opera that's the problem, eg. not very calibrated tresholds for rotation.
So we have to wait for a proper version of Opera.
the rendering of a webpage is very cpu intensive action, everything has to be recomputed for small display. if you change resolution (ie. rotate diamond) in the middle of the loading the page, it's bit too much for little diamond. just wait till the loading of the page finishes, and then rotating works ok. it can't be much better...
This is happening to me too (Telus version) but it only recently started happening. As soon as I rotate the screen - whether the page is fully loaded or not - it brings me to the Phone screen. I've accidently called people a couple times due to this so it's a bit frustrating.
I'm going to try hard resetting my phone and then slowly install applications and tweaks to see if I can figure out what's causing it.
I have this issue as well...I think Opera ios just trying to do too much....loading a page and rotn at the same time. After a while it seems to work better....I still think they have a long way to go to make this programe bug free and reliable

Same thing happens to me, on the same ROM.
Did you get any result doing this? I have the Telus ROM too and this is very annoying.
I have tried using GSen with the rom before, but uninstalled it. No change.
The only thing I suspect may interfere could be that I mapped a Long Key Press for screen rotation in apps like Inbox. I will try unmapping and post the results here.
I don't know how TouchFlo is integrated to the OS, but I wonder if manually changing the orientation of the screen somehow affects other components that could become "out of sync" with the current orientation... Could it be related to the version of one component? Looks like GSen does not work properly with Telus ROMS.
at least your opera get to go lanscape. When mine try to do landscape, it somehow open up the phone dialer and i get kicked out of Opera. Anyone know what this happens? Keeping it in portrait mode is fine, but the second i rotate it, it halts the program and open up phone dialer for no apparent reason!!

lude I was havving that problem too. I made a reg edit that helped with the phone dialer popping up on the touch and it seems to have helped me
i think it s HKLM>SOFTWARE>MICROSOFT>SHELL
I then set ShowTitleBarClock to 2
hope that helps

It works!.....but then it covers up my battery meter
I'm not sure what would show the battery icon....I use ariel battery metter
...same problem here...
(Telus)
Same as mine.
Rotation speed in Opera seems not real working when the phone rotated for vertical / horizontal orientation. I am wondering memory size whether it can support changes in high resolution display.
See whether it has upgrade version to speed up the function.

Change hourglass/waiting cursor

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?

[SOLVED] super annoying long click popup menu problem

hi
i've been having this random problem with a lot or cooked wm6.5 roms, sometimes it happens after 1st or 2nd reboot, other times it happens after a couple days.
The problem is the long click popup menu, it's missing the top most active option, i have this image here as an example from the calendar, but it happens with all applications with the popup menus.
the top option (new appointment) only shows up after pressing some other option, if i click the tools option for ex. it opens the other menu but blank cause it only has one line, so unless i already know the program i dunno what's there...
i notice that it happens after i install some programs, but it happens with diferent ones, sometimes it causes the problem, sometimes it doesn't! so i don't think it's specificly related to a particular program... only way i have to fix it is to hard reset,, which is a pain in the ass... it's soooooo annoying!
It seems like there's another layer of menu on top of the correct one and it's causing the problem, i would like to know if there's any file, a .dll or something that i can substitute to fix/restore the popup menus without having to hard reset.
Thanks in advance
Omg omg omg!!!!
Finally!!! found the culprit of the problem!
it just hit me, i change some things in Advancedconfig, including, ANIMATE MENUS! i usually enable that option when i am setting up things and installing some apps after flashing a new rom... that's why it was eluding me... it worked fine with wm6.1...
wow, what a relief hehe just disabled animate menus and the popup menus returned to normal
