I'm assuming you're still using aero theme, this will cause BSOD. Try changing your theme to 'classic' and the resolution button should work fine. Unfortunately, there is no fix to use all the other themes with the resolution button (unless I'm wrong). =(
Perfect! Thanks. white I am thinking about it. Is there a download for all Shift/Windows7 drivers and utilities? Sometimes I get an error about my missing "network adapter." and also the finger print reader is a little quirky.

I'm thinking about it a lot.. I guess the best thing is to set the "resolution.exe" to compatibility mode (i.e. : without composition) but not starting it when windows starts.. and then when you want to use the button you just need to launch the resolution.exe ... which will stop aero... and you can use the button to switch the resolution.... and when you have finish... you just need to end the process.. and it goes back to aero
but I'm in sweden without my shift .. I can't test right now... that's an idea.. before having an application to better manage that

[q] {request} a screen position change< plz >

Hi guys,
So, as the thread says, i am having a problem with screen positioning, its landscape mode and i want it to go portrait mode, BECAUSE i have a damaged X1, some microchip is damaged, and the only buttons working is the turn on button and the camera button, but everything which goes for the touch is working perfectly.
SO, when i start ANDROID system, i always get it in landscape mode, and as none of my buttons work, i cant just "slide out and slide in" the telephone to change the view, so is there any way to change the default starting view ? maybe to change some kind of code or line in settings ?

Yes , it will be, but i tried to repair it, i repairmans told, that this device is unrepairable... So i either throw it away or manage to use android ... Can anyone help ?
On some of the iPad knockoffs running android, they put only the home button on the device, and put software buttons for back and menu in the top right of the screen. Maybe you can find some way to get that?

As for the rotate, when I press the menu button on the home screen, it seems to realise that the keypad is in fact closed and rotate the correct way. So if you can get the menu button up there, then press that on the homescreen and it should rotate to the correct orientation.

You can maybe remap the keys like this:
Camera focus = back
Camera = home
Power = menu
But I don't know how to do it.
Sent from my MSM using XDA App
Camera focus is already mapped to back button in "Froyo FRG83 - Android 2.2.1 Beta-Release [06-11-2010] from neopeek", but camera is mapped to turn off.
Also with that configuration, how would you turn off your device or put it into standby?
@tads999 calm down dude. Remember that YOU need help, not us. So don't yell at guys that want to help.

Take out the battery to turn off.
Have a timer that enters standby after some minutes if nobody touch it and listen to all working keys so he can exit standby.
And if I would have his X1 I would be pleased if it could run Android.

[APP] Instant Screen Off (for rooted phones only)

I have make small app, which switching off screen.
Instant, without any waits or faking switching off by set brightness to zero.
It's simulate pressing of power button.
Maybe this one will be interest for somebody
root needed
Nice! I'd be more interested if you could do unlock via soft keys as we had in Hero , i.e. home and menu, as I find the power button is too recessed for easy access.
Not sure if softkeys would be too easy to trigger by mistake tho ??

There is a hack for this but the menu key etc on the hd are not active when the screen is locked so it doesn't work. I did it today but you have to press power then the keys become active and you can use menu etc to unlock. Pointless as you still need to use power button first. The hero's keys were hard buttons as is the desire. It worked great on the desire. Unless anyone knows a way to have them active while locked? My power buttons a nightmare as it's not very clicky and really recessed. My wife's hd power button is much easier to use. Anyone know a way to have the soft keys active all the time?

Thanks for this app, i was waiting for.
Power button isn't as practical as your app to power down the phone.
Thank you mate.
Very Nice.... I like it.
But can you please Chance the Icon for me?
Im not able to do this myself.
I would like something like that.
Back and white with a bit gray or shaded would be very nice

In technical terms,yes- it would circumvent the process of having to use one's digit to find aforementioned hard power button and then depress said button.

Its just a app to lock the phone and turn the screen off. Not sure if it works on evo
Ok thanks buddy, Uninstalling.

Dunno if this is doable but have you seen the screen lock on the new nexus that was seen at recent web 2.0 summit. Its kinda like the effect you get when u turn off an old crt TV. Could you implement that instead of the current fade effect? Ta
here i send you the perfect icon for me.
I hope you can do this. This would be very great.
Can you make the white corners transparent?

Hello, thanks a lot. its look very very sexy.
The only problem i have is with the "More Icons Widget"
That shows me the old symbol.
I think thats not you Problem. So i will check that.
thanks!
Thank you exidler for this useful app. I am just wondering if you can make use of the accelerometer sensor to turn off the screen ( for example by putting the phone upside down) . Thanks again.

i also agree ! that would be a perfect app and since most people do not check their sms upside down it would also be extremely practical

Use keyboard or volume keys for camera?

Hi,
Is there any way to use the keyboard (e.g. ENTER) or the volume keys to take a picture? The lack of shutter button is really bugging me..but either one of these keys would make it a lot more tolerable.
Any one?
Thanks
Have you tried the "OK" button? Works for me
id like this also
As said above, the OK button takes photos.
Thanks didn't know.
Though when closed volume keys would be even better or you'd have to slide every time
I use camera zoom fx which allows for pressing anywhere om screen to take a photo. Makes it easier to take photos when you can't see the screen to hit the touch shutter button
Rooted xt860, debloated and overclocked to 1.1
Camera Zoom FX/Pro in the market allows you to assign the volume keys to a shutter action. Plus, of course, it does a better job than the stock camera app.

It's not like im asking for advanced camera features. All I want is to change the shutter button from OK to volume button. How hard can it be? Especially in open source world of android..

I'm sure you could extract the app from the /system/app folder, expand it, edit the apk, then replace it on the phone with the edited apk, and see how it works. As to how to do this...IDK, but it can't be that simple if it hasn't been done yet, because many people have requested this be changed.

Well it's been done for galaxy (adjusting the apk). Unfortunately I'm too noob
But I was thinking more simple by e.g. apps that switch around keys when a certain app is opened or something
Please, I don't think we want third party paid apps for just changing one feature. It's more about: "How can we change the BlurCamera.apk to also take photos with the volume buttons".

Hehe I was doing some research and just wanted to type this.. But shouldn't we use qwerty.kl?
Anyway can you give a key 2 functions? E.g. volume - = volume - but also camera?

[MOD]Enabled soft keys/Disabled Cap buttons **7.29 update posted**

This mod enables onscreen soft keys (THANKS TO LEONARDOARAUJO for the modded framework-res) and disables all cap keys except for menu. cap keys still are illuminated, but home, back, and search are disabled as well as haptic feedback for the 3. as i cannot as of yet get a search key remap working i decided to try n make this.I kinda like it btr even tho i lose a lil real estate cuz soft keys are cool..tested and working fine.

Until the backlight params editing is backported to CM10, you might want to try Screen Filter. I used that app since CM9 to disable the backlights on the capacitive buttons. Cheers!
Edit: Scrap that. It seems that it doesn't work (yet) on CM10. I'll try searching for something else.
Edit 2: Success! Adjbrightness works flawlessly!

i left mine on cuz there are times and places i need to enter menu but the 3 dots aren't there. maybe leo can add menu to the soft keys, ill ask.
In what app(s) does that occur? I haven't checked every app on my phone, but it's all good so far. The 3 dots show up either next to the soft buttons or on the actionbar.

actually now tht im paying attn, i think its mainly from home screen using apex. i can set a shortcut but i jus kinda like having menu access rt there. works for me
edit: ur right..menu 3 dots thing is there anytime there is a menu to access, EXCEPT apex home screen. but sometimes its up on top. i thought about disabling menu but decided to keep it as its nice to have rt there, i guess for the same reason i like the search key to recents remap..more easily accessible.
