Rotation issue - Touch Diamond2, Pure General

Hello everyone, my name is Nick and this is my first post in this great forum. I have been using the TD2 for some months now and i think it's a really great phone!
The only problem i've come across so far is that the G-Sensor rotates the screen in some applications i'd rather see horizontal like the phone dialer and the Sim Toolkit service. It's really annoying to see the screen rotating when i am talking on the phone because it messes up the screen too!
I've tried many programs like Gyrator 2 or G config but none of them seem to do what i want. I don't want to disable the G sensor of the phone cause it's really useful when browsing or writing messages.
Any ideas of how to solve this? Thanks in advance!

I use Gyrator and disabled everything i don't wan't to be turned, works perfect!
It looks like you didn't set-up Gyrator properly, read the manual carefuly.

When you look in Gyrator Events you will see this list:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Make sure that everyting that you don't wan't to rotate is listed above Rotate.
You can add new events (click and hold on a blanck section) and put them higher in the list by click and hold them and chose Promote.
If you don't know wat you should enter in a event for a non-rotating event just look, by editing (click and hold and chose edit) in a excisting Disable(***) event, i did to.
Good luck!

I tried that too but i just keeps rotating when i turn the device.
I created a new event and checked "Orientation", i named it "Disable (Dialer)" and promoted it above "Rotate". Then i edited it like that: Application=Phone, Orientation=Portrait (or landscape, i tried everything on the list), Actions=Rotate Screen (or nothing checked, i tried both) but it still doesn't work. I even tried disabling the HTC dialer and using the WM one but nothing changed. I'm starting to believe it's haunted!

New iBliss 3G dialpad

Hey guys,
I got the iBliss dialpad skin from crash (in the wisbar forum) and updated it so that it's compatible with 3G phones. Here are some screenshots:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now, I still can't seem to work out which file overlays the brightness bar (video call => click brightness button). If anyone can help me on that I can then finish off the skin.
Note that the installation cab overwrites your phcanrc.dll in your windows directory. You might like to back that up first.
thanks, i have installed it and its very nice one
looks very nice, thanks
can someone post a picture? I don't want to install it before I know how it looks like
...and does using this require you to have Wisbar installed on your device? oh yeah, pictures would be appreciated. thanks...
Absolutely great work
I have one request, if I may...Could you make the photo larger inside the phonepad, I love the looks, but there's plenty of room to make the photo with "normal" calls twice the size...pretty please...
Very great work, thank's
i have a question.
how i can have "keypad" button (left softkey in picture 3) when i do a call
now i have contacts there
Is this project still alive at all? Im having issues with this not displaying anything correctly on a Touch. Worked on a cooked rom, but i installed in on a new rom that didnt have it and now it looks all jacked up.

This does not display any numbered buttons for me with FInixNOver3.4 Black Edition
So I'm going to have to hard reset my device...

My rlToday skin for 96 dpi

I made a super simple skin for my Athena to organize my today screen better. I thought it might be vaguely useful to others so here it is. The items aren't perfectly lined up and uses no images. It currently has the date, calender, time, 5 applications, sms, email and missed calls counters. I may add tabs, weather and other stuff one day.
The skin is the top part:

Neat Ta!
Changed it around a bit, by swapping the date and time, so that it stills shows the time in portrait and then shrunk it to 110 to fit everything into my start screen.

Sorry for the newbie question, but where should these files be put? I've tried dropping them in the Windows directory and then going to Settings/Today to see what appeared. Nothing did.

Ah, it needs the rlToday plugin, which can be found in this thread:

here's mine. Love rlToday!!
You can download the skin from rlToday's main page under skin forum. These guys have made a phenomenal program!!!

very cool.
thanks
very nice! I've been looking for this for a while. I'd rather have an independent icon on my taskbar than one replacing the start icon, so this is a great replacement for ArielBattery. Thanks!
Great idea, unfortunately does not work on my HTC Elfin.
Can someone host this somewhere other than ziddu? I can't connect from work (not sure if the site is down or blocked).

Thank you, good sir
awesome! love it.
It doesn't show the number in my P535. The icon is actually changed.
Not working on Samsung i760. Tried both cabs, the numbattery didn't do anything, the QVGA one changed the icon to a solid white one, but no numbers at all. Is there a configuration file to change or something?
Also, it wiped out my background picture of my today screen. Had to set it back up...
does not seem to work on my verizon touch pro
Did not work on my Treo 750 with WM6.0
after installing cab and restarting, I had a second battery icon (that looked like your original from the picture above, vertical lines), but no numbers.
Thanks anyway...
lol... working on polaris... thankfully
Does not work on Samsung Epix (i907).
Why does the thread opener has been banned?
If i´m right, i think he had "stolen" the battery-icon-gauge from another forum-member, and posted it her as his creation.

Great it worked in my TyTn II. Thanks for your effort bro. I am loving it.

hi everyone does anyone know where i can get the large menu in this picture (right picture) or even just its name...i do no its from the touch hd though
btw this picture is from cmex's rom
that one up here should be part of the touch HD SIP (software keyboard)
however, u can get something similiar for other programs. its called "finger menu".
This is it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=459125
I'd be careful with it on the X1 though!
It is still under development
I tested it on X1 and there's a problem with the background transparency because it uses alphablend
alpha sometimes worx and sometimes it doesnt. in general ... high potential, but loads of minor anoying bugs.
Works perfect for me. be sure to install it on device memory, and soft reset.
perfect? i doubt it!
try to copy/paste Numbers in your Contacts.
try to select folders in files exlorer (upper left menu without installing plugins to fix it)
some programs simply dont work
perssing the OK button while finger menu is open screwes the Program and closes Finger menu ...
thats far from perfect but pretty good start
my advice, go to advanced config, open interface and increase the "popup menu fontsize" to 1000 or ore more.not nearly as nice but works like a charm so far.

If you use portrait more than landscape then try 1200 and the use the light font that gets installed with Yota contacts (don't think it's available seperately, but I'll extract it later on if you want)
That looks really nice, is even more finger friendly and the font looks very crisp..
thanks for the info, i dont think will try finger menu yet, maybe at a latter stage in its development!
changing the pop-up menu font size works perfectly, exactly what i wanted.
fards if you could extract the better font for me when you have spare time that would be brilliant,
Thanks everyone

What can I do to fix this? Restarting the phone always fixes it (although that's not really a "solution" per se), sometimes restarting the phone app fixes it. Sometimes the keypad is there, but is up and to the right (off the edge of the screen, covering the leftmost side of the list of calls).
i think i had the same problem. try changing to landscape and back to normal.

My phone dialer doesn't rotate...
Yes, annoying this. I got the problem the other day then things went back to normal after a soft boot. I am aware that rotating the app does fix the problem (until the next time) but have never tried it.
To get your phone app to rotate, install BSB Tweaks. Once done select the phone app as an item to be rotated which should give you what you are looking for.

Thanks, this fixed it!
Wondering if there's been a better solution uncovered to this than "rotate the phone". That's not very fluid since the phone tends to rotate/unrotate in call and the keypad disappears again, making using menu options in voicemail (for example) much more of a pain than it needs to be.
Don't even understand how this is a problem, given that my TP2 had the same dialler and had no problems...
Bump ...
No chance for a response here...?

It'll auto-configure on first boot.
BTW, the dialpad issue has been fixed for at least two months now - there's a dll or a cab floating around somewhere

Would really like to find these...searching the forums yields nothing...
Still hoping for a reply...
Try overwriting the dll posted by fards with total commander or resco. Using wm 6.5 myself so haven.t tested.
