Can anyone point me to the CAB that corrects the landscape issue for M2D? I found one posted by mbavarian but the link is dead. I'm running -shifu- WWE 6.1 ROM on my ATT Tilt. Nice ROM but when you end a program and return to the Today screen it returns to portrait mode even though the keyboard is slid out.
Thanks!!
I would be interested in this too-I was not aware that there was a "fix," as M2D was never designed to work in landscape unlike newer versions of TF3D that have it built in.
As stated it was never created to run in landscape mode. There are fixes but all the ones I have tried have been pointless. If you want a fully fledged and supported device for landscape mode, then run a stock rom.
There is a fix based on mbv's by shifu it's not a 100% fix as works via mort to create a action screen when keyboard opened, i'm mobile @ mo so cant give direct link but click my ROM in sig and work from back of thread as i linked it for users, to be honest if you like m2d then you get used to the nuance of landscape and work around it...
Ok, thanks guys! Will live with nuance of portrait mode. Love M2D home screen.
I still have the file. I believe this is what you are talking about. Its a bit slow to rotate but it does work.
Yes, that's it! Thanks!!

im currently using the touchflo 2D beta as my today screen, and ive been for about 2 months. its probably the best today screen ive ever had, but it doesnt work in landscape mode. i want to use landscape mode for everything to improve website viewing and keyboard response. is there a solution to my problem that doesnt involve changing my today screen around?
-thanks

Have had this bug for most of my recent ROM flashes. Initally the ROM is fine but after a while whenever i switch to the phone to landscape it switches back to portrait about 5-10 secs later. The only fix seems to be reflashing the ROM.
The current Rom is the most recent PDA corner Ultimate but more than one has had the same problem f
I have installed the following software
G alarm
m2dc
s2u2
skyfire
microsoft reader
thumbcal
windows live
any help would be great
Cheers

Go to MSkip's FAQs and read #15.
Ok, ok, here is the link.
i suggest you should read the post info that came with that rom, its clearly stated, that with manilla2d the landscape function is non functional.
so if you want it back take a non manilla rom and put htc home on it, or something of that matter
It's not a big problem though. Landscape should work fine when you in any of your apps. It's just on the Manilla screens you'll have this problem
As said before, this is a Manila limitation.
2D Manila only supports portait.
Thanks
Dave
the issue is for clarification that when i switch the phone to landsacpe in any app it immediately reverts to the touchflo homescreen in portrait. SO i cant use the slide out keyboard to write sms in landscape because it just immediately reverts to portrait.
Read the post above yours from DaveShaw.
If you stop touchflo from running it'll work fine. Depends what you want. Fancy or functionality.

Or find a rom with limited landscape functionality. I can do almost everything in landscape with HD III. SMS and e- mails certainly.

That doesn't sound right to me. I have Touchflow 2D and landscape works fine for me when I'm in any of my apps. It only has a problem when touchflow is actually visible
Hi there
Can we have this landscape theme on our fuzes? This is from a blackstone.
I think the landscape mode that comes with the most roms is not useful. it will be good if we can have a landscape mode with the same funtionality as portrait mode.
Have U tryed SEARCH function ?

I for one would like a landscape as depicted, I don't understand why you pointed to NRG's ROM I know he is working on the Manila 2 with others but I haven't seen anything like this before.
That landscape is from the new rhodium (TP2) and Tapaz (D2) manila It isn't finished yet. Xbox, DHarvey and myself and a couple of others are working our ass off to get it finished. NRG's ROM has a preview of that manila (unfinished. So take that or check this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=475557
I did search for hours and nothing. what i want is a landscape theme where you can read your sms, have the music functionality with the album cover, a calendar, programs tab, etc. just like portrait mode.

you must be dumber than Sarah Palin. That's TF3D2 on the Blackstone which was ripped from the new Rhodium ROM and it currently being ported to VGA. If you want to try it out then you can flash NRG's new ROM.
This is a good example of asking a question which has plentifully been answered. Still I think it's better to ignore it than bashing the TS, I'm sure in time he'll learn to search properly and we don't have to waste our time on these things.

Don't forget that some users might still find these topics helpfull, like me for example. I find this forum very difficult to get through, to find the information I need (since some topics count over 70 pages). The search function doesn't give me good results either. I've had a TYTNII for a year, and I never understood why the manila2d couldn't be done in landscape mode.
<--- "That's TF3D2 on the Blackstone which was ripped from the new Rhodium ROM and it currently being ported to VGA. If you want to try it out then you can flash NRG's new ROM" --->
The above made me realize that it's because of ripping/porting that manila-landscape still doesn't exist for tytnII nor for raphael (my new phone).
Anyway, I'll get to the point. I don't think it's a waste of time to reply to these sort of questions, just lock the topic afterwards. It's not always because of a noob not able to find the search function. We're not all rocket scientists you know .
EDIT: And now I think of it, what's the pain replying on a topic which will probably cost you about 4 seconds of your life?
enough bashing for the poor fellow?
if you don't want to flash another rom, there's a cab i found a while back that has something like that and is installable as a cab file.

rhodium manila port
maybe I'm missing something glaringly obvious, but if you're interested in getting the the landscape mode to look like the portrait, go here:

As mentioned in some of the other responses, it is the rhodium version of manila (aka touch flo) that has been ported to the touch pro (aka Raphael). It works on most ROMs to my knowledge including stock ROMs. Currently, XBMod is working on porting the Topaz version of manila to the touch pro (see link). It works wonderfully on the Alltel touch pro, which is what I have. Hope this helps.

This is the new touchflo 3D 2. has all the lanscape things you want
I know it is changed to Landscape mode automatically by G-sensor.
However, I think 'Landscape' mode does not work whole programme, such as Word Mobile.
Do you know how to change 'Landscape' mode as manual?
I cannot found in 'Screen' setting.

Thanks but I am afraid I explained wrong.
I am happy with 'Auto-Rotation' function.
However, I wonder to see other programme (E.g. Touch Flo3d, Word...) as landscape mode.
I used to use WM5 (Trinity), it is able to change Landscape mode on Screen (Setting). However, I am not sure I cannot find how to rotate screen on Touch Diamond2.
Search for Gsen and other programs in the Diamond or Blackstone forums that let you choose which app is rotated. There's also a post somewhere about some REG edits that lets you configure the G-sensor app in the lastetst Topaz Roms (the one you are currently using) the way you want it.
I'm using G-Config:

HI. I posted this in another thread but didnt get much of a response..i use landscape mode alot and i was wonder which cooked rom is best for landscape mode..
they are all pretty much the same if m2d is used. best bet is ms3, home or stock. mind you I use m2d and use landscape without a hitch just depends how you use it?
oh and I forgot 6.5 to which is good for landscape.
djquick is correct about making a new thread as the answer even I should have put was flash flash flash
Ok, so you think by posting in this thread you'd get a better response??? Dude, you didn't even specify what kind of phone you have, what you're looking for specifically; other than the best rom for landscape. My guess is you didn't even look through the different roms out there with their specific pros and cons............unbelievable
Sorry i have the
ATT TILT
ROM right now is the Ultimate PDA V4
Im using that and the landscape works fine but im a picky person lol
You'll need to specify your use cases a little more. A WM6.1 stipped ROM work's fine in Landscape mode. Do you need WM 6.5, Manila, etc.
Moving to General, as not related to ROM development.
