Very Nice. Let the apps start rolling.
-Shake for answering calls.
-Scroll a web page or any other scrolling done by just tilting the gorgeous phone.
More ideas? Ill start posting and adding. So show your imagination boys!

yeah! I have ideas for games but unfortunatly not the possibilities to write the soft
Read this article for more information about the SDK:
http://msmobiles.com/news.php/7477.html
Let's try this in VB.net, as soon as I manage to get it to work I will try to write some games (don't know if I can but I will try )
I hope someone can create some kind of calibrating tool, mine needs to be calibrated really bad.
I'm still working on a new app which uses the sensor, but it'll takes a bit time, until i can release it.
Until i released it, i don't tell you what app it is

I'm really wait for your good try. Keep it on.
ahaa.. godd news. v all r waiting.
This really does allow developers to start making some killer apps for our diamon. Carnt wait to see what pops up over the next few weeks!!
Hi I've a idea is:
1) When shake on vertical (UP => Down => UP) then LOCK the phone
2) When shake on horizontal (LEFT => RIGHT => LEFT) then UNLOCK the phone
I think this is so cool when you use the phone ^_^
So, here is my app: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=406769
@Wolfblood: I can do this, if i have time, because it is not so different than my new app. Instead of changing the profile, i would change the lock status.

Maybe there could be a sticky thread with links to the apps which make use of the g-sensor?
I am about to develop a very, very simple spirit-level app for teh diamond just to get used to the sensor api for C# http://blog.enterprisemobile.com/2008/07/using-htc-diamonds-sensor-sdk-from-managed-code/
btw: is there any information on other apis as for instance to the vibration, the camera etc.? i couldn't find anything for the touch diamond
edit: teh simple spirit level test can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2389529&posted=1#post2389529

Nice nice, looking forward.
What about an app that answers a phone call with a shake? i belive they had it on the Nokia n95 if im not mistaken.
Good luck dude!!
what about a shake to wake up from standby ?
Did anyone managed to get this to work in VB.NET instead of C#? I know VB.NET but not C#...

That feature was on the Athena .. VueFlo I think it was called
Would be pretty sweet indeed.
One question though .. if we had more than one app making use of the tilt sensor, so say Gsen and the Profile switcher (haven't tried the latter yet, sounds great though), would they both work together?
Very nice very nice, the idea by Mr. Stesa, ill like my diamond to wake and .... !
peace.
Can somebody post a "Hello World" package with the included dll for VisualStudio 2005?
Tilt Sensor Calibration
I think a VERY usefull application will be a sensor calibration app, may Diamonds including mine, have sensor declination.
You can test it laying diamond without backcover in a flat table, you can se if Teeter ball´s stay without moving or it´s going to anyway, in my case, it going down and to the left.
I Don´t know if this calibratión can be stored in registry and make it permanent, but this would be great. Calibration app only have to ask user to put diamond in really flat an leveled surface to make the work.
Thanks for this great stuff.

Hi Sushilange,
Thanks for you hear my voice ^_^
Today I've think more what can we do on Diamond. Then I think maybe we can add function key + shake to do more. Like:
1) Hold Down the Vol Down Key + shake horizontal = Play Next Music/SMS/Email/Photo
2) Hold Down the Vol Up Key + shake horizontal = Play Previous Music/SMS/Email/Photo
3) Hold Down the Action Key [The Round Button] + shake to Right = Move the TouchFLO3D Tab to Next Right Tap
4) Hold Down the Action Key [The Round Button] + shake to Left = Move the TouchFLO3D Tab to Next Left Tap
5) Hold Down the End Key + shake = Close all application
6) Hold Down the Phone Key + shake = Open the Contacts
7) Hold Down the Back Key [←] + shake = Switch to Next Running application
8) Hold Down the Home Key + shake = Open your favorite application
9) Hold Down the Power Key + shake = Turn the LCD in WHITE and MAX the Backlight, So Diamond become a supper flashlight!
10) When not press any key + Rotation = Auto-Rotation just like GSen
See the Diamond can do a lot of things and iPhone can go back to home
Maybe if can open those setting for user then they can custom the action what they need will be best for all people ^o^
Sushilange, You are very cool and you creating a very cool tools too ^o^
Shake to Wake UP
I'm one of you guys waiting to see any app that will wake the device up from stand by just by shaking it. If anyone has any info please share it. Thank you.
I'm using a snes emulator but having trouble. I can use the volume keys as A & B which is what I want, but whenever I catch the middle d-button while pressing volume-up, it closes the emulator and launches the touchscreen alignment app! Anyone know how to disable this shortcut? Have searched but turning up nothing...
I'd like to know this too... anyone have any ideas?

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?
ref:

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.

Ye, sorry, i just thought, that it will be the forum where no one replies with any help DDD sorry, well, for home and another buttons i have 5 buttons working properly, like power button, volume down, volume up buttons, and camera , camera focus. Hm, maybe i should write to the guys, which created the android for x1 ?

i mean, asking to remap the keys for me,
LOL, got a brilliant idea, i will try to remap the key which enters when u slide ur phone out and in, if this will work, i will be able to run android perfectly ;D
I dont want any password on my phone because i dislike the constant minor inconvenience of entering the password, so what im looking for is a way to disable the power button from waking the device and only use volume rocker. no one really knows this would wake the device and i feel like it would be secure enough for what im looking for.
anyone have a way to do this?
i saw this in another thread but have no idea how to do this or if it would work on 2.3 cm7
Do you have the trackpad wake instructions for Froyo? Changing the qwerty.kl on 'trackpad press' from wake_dropped to wake does NOT work for me on 2.2 (it did on 2.1).
Thanks
Try button remapper, free on Xda or donate online the market, and see if you can change it.
1. Whenever I press the tablet's power button just to make it sleep (not shutting down, just sleep), the keyboard dock seems to keep the tablet awake. What can I do in order to get my tablet to sleep while the tablet is still connected to the dock?
2. There are some settings that I want to modify, such as text repeating speeds, the behaviors on holding down key buttons, find a way to "delete" words from the right of the text cursor, etc. Where can I do this?
3. Even if the keyboard dock build date is later than November 2013, but the tablet seat of the dock is still making the tablet wobbly (by a little bit), is it because I'm not seating the tablet deep enough? How deep should I push down, even after the locking mechanism is already in the locked state?
4. Are there any tutorial/guides on how to use the MobileDock keyboard? Everywhere I look in Google, it's always Reviews Reviews, and Technical Reviews.

1. Try just closing the lid? The not sleeping issue has been an issue on other transformers as well.
2. shift + backspace = delete. No options for the text repeating speed I'm aware of.
3. Known issue - you can fix it yourself with some foam tape. Asus cannot fix it as I have found out.
4. What do you want to know?

Anything from telling you what button does what to hotkeys in Android.
There are a few keys I don't understand, such as keys with weird symbols on it. The hotkeys is needed, because I would like to use them often.
I am not sure if common Android apps also used hotkeys optimized for tablets.

Mine also has this 'issue'. Also, when the tab is in deepsleep i cannot wake it using the unlock button on the dock. When i just let the tab go into standby, or whatever it is called, and immediately use the unlock button it works. When letting it stand by for a bit longer and pressing the unlock button it doesn't do anything and i have to use the powerbutto on the tab to unlock. Any possible solution for this?

The Asus docks have always worked that way. Deep sleep is deep sleep - power button to wake. Otherwise it has to waste battery and cpu cycles polling the dock to see if you have pushed the unlock button.

My other question is: Where can I find a list of hotkey combinations that I can use on the keyboard dock?
I only know a few shortcuts:
CTRL+C: Copy
CTRL+V: Paste
CTRL+A: Select All
CTRL+Z: Undo
One day, I hoped to see ALT keys used for inputting characters with symbols on them (like `e)
I just got my dock today (it is a 2013.10 but no connection issues yet). My boss is making me go to the UK in April so I made him buy me a dock instead of me getting a laptop.
Any who, you can configure the the keys to do what ever you want how ever it is a lot of work to set it up.
You need to scan the codes for each key and then modify the keyboard layout.
It can be done but it is a big pain in the ass.
Never heard of that before. Do you know how?

I thought I better take a closer look after I opened my big mouth and it is not the difficult
Attached is a key character map file that does what you specifically suggested ALT e is now mapped to `e however I think that there is a better solution that is already built into Android.
The below unicode characters are defined as dead keys in android what that means is this:
"When a dead key is typed followed by another character, the dead key and the following characters are composed. For example, when the user types a grave accent dead key followed by the letter 'a', the result is 'à'."
In the current key character map file "Generic.kcm" these are the dead keys
'\u0300': Grave accent. ALT + GRAVE
'\u0301': Acute accent. ALT + e
'\u0302': Circumflex accent. ALT + i
'\u0303': Tilde accent. ALT + SHIFT + GRAVE
'\u0308': Umlaut accent. ALT + u
For the attached unzip the file and put it in /system/usr/keychars and change the permissions.
Hopefully with the dead keys and adjusting the map, you can get all the characters that you need.
Further questions regarding special characters

Hello, thank you for providing the asuspec.kcm file. I found the link to this through http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2693602 and looked at the previous discussion in the thread to which you posted this message about the TF701T.
I am using a docked TF101 rooted with Katkiss 4.4.4 and I do not know if I can accomplish what you explain with a different model than TF701T.
I followed your instructions as best as I could understand. I put the asuspec.kcm in the location you instructed using SD Maid. I changed its permissions to be the same as those of the other .kcm files (-rw-r--r--).
I rebooted the TF101 and tried to type in special characters with the keyboard shortcuts. I believe I am missing additional steps to this process. Could you please instruct me on this matter?
Thanks in advance.
