HD2 will NOT ROTATE display clockwise !! - HD2 General

Hey guys !
I really hope there is a simple answer to this strange phenomenon!
Just bought an HTC HD2 ROM 1.48.707 (WWE) unlocked & it simply does not rotate clockwise in the rotate-enabled applications no matter what I ve tried.
HOWEVER it does rotate counter-clockwise.
If someone knows anything about it or of an app that checks the g-sensor or be able to adjust its sensitivity, please help me out here!
NOTE: When I calibrate the G-sensor everything seems to work fine & testing by playing the teeter game is OK.
Thanks for answering

From what I can tell, the HD2 doesnt rotate clockwise natively. I'm sure theres a registry tweak or an installable hack for it, but as a right-handed fellow rotating counter-clockwise is all I need so I haven't looked into it.
edit: found some info in another topic:
"http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=589305"
or
"you could try using gyrator"
I have no idea how these 2 solutions are - again I haven't tested them

Did try with BSB Tweaks & it did what it was supposed to do, that is enable/disable rotation for any application. HOWEVER, clockwise rotation is still a NO-GO & the program does not include a sensitivity tweak....
I will try gyrator...

You should try Gyrator 2. It works .

ChangeScreen v2.78 & Gyrator 2 seem to solve the problem. This should help left-handed people too.. Thanx

Has anyone figured out how to get this working without Gyrator / ChangeScreen?
I can say with complete certainty that rotating to both left and right used to work with my Rhodium.
Same ROM (NRG) and same G-Config List.

I'm also interested in this solution as my car holder presses accidentally the volume key. counter-clockwise this problem would be minimized or removed comletely!

Me too!
stranger still, I used to be able to rotate in both directions without Gerator or anything. Just now suddenly it fails clockwise...

any auto-rotate text messaging programs out there?

Hi, I am the new owner of a touch hd and wanted to know what my best option was for landscape texting and if their was any auto-rotate landscape texting available? even if their is no auto-rotate, can anyone direct me to my best option for landscape texting? thanks
Derrick
Hi !! 24 hours HD owner and I adore it. Actually I found a cool application called Gyrator2 , it switches to landscape and rotate screen depending on how you hold the device ( like iphone ). Check it : http://gyrator.brins0.net/?page=downloads
you can try the new GSen from the Touch Pro 2: http://www.fuzemobility.com/gsen-now-enabled-in-more-apps/
you can add individual applications to the list as well but it works on most applications without any need to add more: http://www.mobilitydigest.com/gain-more-control-of-the-gsen-apps-tp2-edition/
I've used this on a Touch HD and it works
I have tried gsen.
At the moment im am using Dutty's 2.1 Extreme ROM and far as i know manilla should work in lanscape too.
Rotating Manilla seems to be disabled in gsen and i read that i need to add some registry keys in HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\.
I dont really understand how that keys need to look like to make it work. Does anyone else had success?
Edit:
Just found out how it works.
You could also try ChangeScreen...
You could also try ChangeScreen which is my personal favourite as I find it easier to configure than Gyrator:

Rotate screen counter-clockwise

Hi ppz,
Tried to search the following question on the forum, but didn't succeed.
Does anyone know, if possible, to turn the screen counter-clockwise for the fixed landscape apps, particularly the youtube player. You know, so that the volume buttons are on top and the softkeys left.
I rather prefer a registry solution above programs like zensor or gyrator because it's not g-sensor related.
greetz, bobby
Ow yeah, and a happy new jear to all of yah!
Nobody knows? (bump)
Try using a tweak or settings program (like advanced configuration tool 3.3) ?
I thought I had the solution but didn't... sorry I misread the question.
Hi Bobby,
Try ChangeScreen - v2.78.
It works for me.
thnx for the replies.
@ denniske, thnx for the link, looks like a great app, especially the bug fix for the title bar! I'm gonna use this.
But I still expierence probs on youtube with this program. The button layout gets stuck and the movie shrinks to half size or when in full size it falls half out of screen... How are your preferences in that app?
grtz.

Are you trying to rotate device and use landscape?
I tried to rotate the device, what do you mean landscape? Is any application?

You can hold device in your hand in either portrait or landscape, i.e. vertically or horizontally
Depending on what rom you are using landscape mode may not be available for TF3D as its only available on manila 2.0+
You can use free apps to rotate screen including gyrator, changescreen, flipit. Quick search in apps/themes forum should find them
Alternatively flash a later rom which has landscape functionality built in

Rotate screen using G Sensor

Hi all,
I am using for the moment G10 Rom, wich is very good for me (at least for now, )... anyway, I used to use the Xanny's ROM's wich has rotation enabled and after installing Max Manilla and enabling rotation from MaxManilla's settings screen, rotation actually worked in almost all menus and applications (I actualy needed to erase a reg key to stop in call screen from rotating because it had a small bug)... Anyway, Now i use G10 Rom and max manilla ofcourse, but I can not rotate my screen using the G sensor, can anyone tell me what do i need to do to make it work ?
Thank you very much and please excuse my poor English language...
Well.... anyone ?
Have you tried Changescreen, gyrator, Flipit etc......try searching for these in apps/software forum

how to disable TOTALLY auto-rotate

hi,
i installed Kenia V Rom (WM 6.1, Sense 2.5).
I would like to disable totally any autorotate.
I tried in a lot of ways:
- installing programs (flipit, changescreen, gyrator)
- using programs and tweeks in the rom
- using some reg keys (local>software>htc>htcsensor; and other keys)..
....
...but i can't disable autorotation in album...after soft reset, the key "local>software>htc>htcsensor>gsensor deviceAvailability" (that i set to 0) come back to 1.....
any ideas?
thanks
MOD EDIT - Thread moved to General discussion forum as not related to rom development
With apologies to thread starter, I want to do the opposite! I want to have everything on my Touch HD rotate as I use it in the car landscape. The last thing I found would do this is MaxManila but nothing since and MaxSense does not support landscape.
For example, using Energy ROM with CHT, 21908 / 2015 10 Jul 10, this has rotate screen so I get into car, rotate to landscape fine, start satnav which is landscape OK, then someone calls me, phone answers in landscape then switches (without me doing anything) to portrait, finish phone call and now satnav has switched to portrait. Aargh. Where/how can I find something that just sets autorotate everything = on without having to set every single bloody application separately.
gyrator 2 does that.
and it is free and easy to set up.

From memory, Gyrator was one of the apps cooked into one of the many ROMS I tried since the last MaxManila one. I had to set each and every application I wanted to be landscape. Such a PITA, I never bothered. Plus it didn't seem to work OK with dialler (or I couldn't find how).
I just checked today on the Gyrator 2 thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=427805&page=132 and the developer himself said
I've moved over to the Android platform now, with an Acer Liquid, so when I've finished things up with my thesis, I'll likely be making programs for it. As such, it's unlikely I'll be adding new features to Gyrator

So I am not sure I want to get used to an app which is no longer supported - I can see a time when next ROM I flash, Gyrator stops working...
I don't understand why autorotate was so easy with MaxManila and almost impossible with everything else? It is very difficult to find answers (try searching for rotate or landscape and you get so many irrelevant results - it's like searching google for "and").
Surely I can't be the only person visiting this forum who has satnav working in landscape while in the car?
the newest gyrator version has a general rotation implemented, meaning, it will turn the display in ANY program by default, the only thing, you'd need to set up are programs, that you don't want to turn, like phone or coreplayer...
Thank you. The latest version on his site I can find is Version 2008.12.10 r1 - is that the one you mean?
I do need the dialler to rotate also, because if the Touch HD is landscape in the car and the phone rings....
yepp, that's the one. at the very top of this page: http://gyrator.brins0.net/?page=downloads
