No. Hero doesn't have a keyboard like the G1 so when you open the keyboard while on the home screen Touch Flo will FC.

[APP] TF3D Landscapefix

Hey guys,
Here is the promised fix for the TF3D landscapemode. This is for english ROMs only. For any other language you have to fix the Program Files paths.
This SHOULD work on any english ROM with TF3D.
1. Install cmEXlandscape.cab
2. Install SecondToday.cab
3. Softreset
Note that this is only a WORKAROUND, so there may be minor bugs, but in general it should work fine.

---> Don't close Second Today. Best if you add it to the exclusive list of the HTC Taskmanager.
bye
Ah, that's interesting indeed... Will try it out. Thanks
what exactly does this workaround?
tnx for your work
A step in the right direction anyway...works reasonably well.
Very Nice!
I'll give it a shot later today

ehm... I mean what tecnically does. How it works
running secondtoday with rltoday in background. mortscripts makes it active windows when device is put into landscape and minimized when going back to portrait.
What happens when I will minimize all windows (red button press)?? What if I am not using the TF3D Panel (for whatever reason)
It will minimize SecondToday if you press the HangUp button. Not running TF3D won't run the script at all.

No, TF3D is running all the time.
Slow? Not really. Not much slower than on a Touch Pro.
Perfect Works like a charm!
I find myself sliding my keyboard out much more often now. Heh
EDIT: Donation sent =)

I may be wrong, but it looks like you don't have TouchFLO 3D running in the background, you need it running.

Understood.
Is it possible that Jack's V1.06 ROM does not work with this workaround?
If anyone is using these .cabs with Jack's, please shout it out! We'd most likely have an answer then.
This does not work with the TF3D Panel... does it?

TP on landscape

Just a simple question if anyone is willing to help
How do I keep my phone on landscape all the time?
I have tried going to "settings -> align screen -> landscape" but everytime i close my keyboard goes back to portrait mode . Some say it's due to "clear type" i turned that off and still keeps going back to portrait [I do lot of texting]
So if anyone has any ideas and would like to pass on plz 'n thanks
If you rotate the screen in closed-keyboard(portrait) to landscape,it keeps all the time in LS mode all the time after(keyboard in/out doesn't matter).. You can do it using mortscript,SPB PocketPlus or in a different way.
I have got a opera mobile 9.7 beta and when you rotate screen on landscape with this software and press home button, your screen will be still on landscape
// It is some BUG of opera, but you can use it

And also i found program called GSen ot rotates your touch pro !
If you have sk tools (probably even the free version), use the shortcut manager to create a landscape mode shortcut, then copy it into \windows\startup. You should be good to go.

In changeScreen you have the choise which orientation you want to use by default. And you can make exceptions. For example, I hate it when bubble breaker starts a new game when I tilt my phone to far, so I've set it up in a way it only uses portrait.

hehe im trying to do the exact opposite
I want tf3d to be in portrait all the time, regardless of keyboard in or out.
If i figure out how, ill let you know because it should be easy then to convert to landscape only.

Nope sorry
I had another thread going and their were a few suggestons but it didnt make any difference.
why not just use screenchanger 2.8 and set default only 2 the landscape of your choice (dont know if ur right or left handed)???
if u chose "enable" and "run on startup" wouldnt that fix everything w/o out using some stupid glich?
all the programs that i have used like gsen etc, dont override the keyboard slide. It seems to have some hardwired switch which overrides all of those programs and forces landscape, and then back to portrait when you slide it back in.

Hero Keyboard

Wuts good XDA-Developers Q&A
well i'd like to kno is it possible to get a better keyboard for the Hero build JacxSki v2.1 for the G1/Dream cause i was useing "HERO2 - Freedom of choice 1.5.4JAC-SKI BFS-211" and i like that keyboard but on both of these build theres no "Landscape" mode for the keyboard so can you change the keyboard layout at all or can i change it and get Landscape too some how
the onscreen keyboard (AKA HTC_IME) should be the same for both. Chances are the app you're using doesn't support auto rotation.
you mean the rom im useing doesnt support auto-rotation rite? im sure Hero does thou pretty sure it does that dam rom can do everything else

No, I mean the app you're using doesn't auto rotate.
When you say the landscape keyboard doesn't work, what do you mean?
So the app rotates, but the keyboard never opens when you tap the area for text input. A screen shot would be nice if you know how to use adb.

Home screen won't rotate

My home screen (sense) used to rotate when I changed the phone's orientation, but it suddenly stopped doing that. Does anyone know how to fix this?
The problem only affects the the home screen, rotation works fine in all other apps
To be frank (not saying it's not possible), I've never seen an in store demo Incredible S homescreen rotate since it was released or on my personal hadnset (on a standard ROM). It was one of the first things I tried just to see the illuminated buttons at the bottom rotate too. Found I could only get it to rotate when in an app.
Yup it only rotates in app. As far as my knowledge surpasses, its only desire z that that has feature of rotating home screen.
Lol even i tried a lot to rotate the home screen when I got my silver desire last summer.
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using XDA App
