[wb9999]

This is really cool. The description in the first post didn't say too much what it is about. I thought I would give it a try. It really does rotate the screen when you rotate the phone - in any program. Fantastic.

An it appears in AppToDate. Even better.

[CharlyV]

Sometimes, it is not necessary to write a novel.
The topic title says enough.

[saveferris]

Nice find..... Its just brilliant.

[NMarco]

very good release!!!

3 ask for you:

can I rotate the main screen (home, contacts,photos, etc..)?

this program has autorun?

can I exclude one program to rotation?

[CharlyV]

Please read the readme.txt and you will find the answers.
You can add shortcut in startup.
To exclude app use #window parameter.
To rotate TF3D home screen make no sense, because it is designed for portrait mode.

[jpresencia]

hi, i've tried this program and works great.. MANY MANY THANKS!!! i just added a shortcut to windows/start so it loads on startup.

i understand that #window parameter can be used to exclude one program, but i have a couple of questions:
1- can i add as many exceptions as i want??
2- if answer is yes,how should i write them?something like this?
#window(explorer.exe)
#window(commanager.exe)

thanks!!!!

[Caspertje19]

awesome !
I was waiting for this one, thnx !

nevermind, i got it... Sorry!!!

[pedmond]

nevermind, i got it... Sorry!!!

Would you mind sharing? :p

[jpresencia]

i wouldnt mind, but actually what i thought was wrong.
i wanted to exclude commmanager, dialer screen and the screen you get when someone is calling you.

so i tried with:
#window(commanager) #window(cprog)

that didnt work, so any help would be appreciated...
How to disable rotating for commanager and dialer/answer screen????
Thanks!!!

[KukurikU]

thanks! here we have the first app for the G sensor.:)
what about a new app for the Gspot:D????? it has to be combined with vibrate function :D

[Radeon123]

Awesome app, works nice with the TLR 405 rom, rotates all my apps perfectly, including TomTom :D

Would love to see this app or similar cooked into newer roms ;)

Wonder why HTC didn't do something like this :confused:

[teddyen66]

So cool.
Thanks for you work :-)

[uaon99]

This is a great software,it is very useful,
but I have problem when i use internet explorer,
the bookmark page is unreadable,
and also the address field,
all the characters overlap.
Hope you can find out the cause of the problem.

i'm using TLR's ROM

This problem has nothing to do with our tool.
If you have this kind of problem, you will have it by using another rotation (manually) tool too.

[borgqueenx]

i dont understand the readme how to make a working shortcut and not ask to unload...can someone please make a version i can copy and paste to...?

and it would also be nice if this worked in touchflo 3d.

[Caspertje19]

I really like this one as mentioned before...
Onlt the rotation comes with a lag. It just take 2 or 3 seconds the rotate the screen. Is there any possibility this can be done faster or is this just antoher wm thing?

[bing69]

thanks!!!!!!!!

[CharlyV]

i wouldnt mind, but actually what i thought was wrong.

How to disable rotating for commanager and dialer/answer screen????
Thanks!!!

#window(commanager) wrong

#window(commmanager) right

Class of this window is "commmanager"

[gunggu]

Found a problem with autorotating & zoom function;

The case is for programs that already has the g sensor working for diamond, ie htcalbum and opera9

in htcalbum, when I tried to zoom, the screen goes rotating 360 degrees (zooming using the circle navi)

in opera9, auto rotate doesnt work anymore, zooming is fine though

if anyone got these problems; just edit the config add:
#window(htcalbum)
#window(opera9)

dont forget to soft reset if it wont work immediately

[CharlyV]

Good finding, gunggu.
Because the programs which are working with G-Sensor by default, can produce a problem in this case.
We will add these apps in our exlude list.

[borgqueenx]

please help me create shortcut, i dont understand the readme enough...thanks.

[CharlyV]

GSen Beta 0.4 (http://s-k-tools.com/freeware/gsen.zip) - Update with new exclude list.

[papimuzo]

Hat off Sir, worked like a charm (1.37.456.2 WWE), even with a GPS navigating prog.
Have you some more in your bag...? ;-))
Thanks a lot.

[deika95]

Great very gfreat but if i want rotate only one application (TomTom) ? Thanks

[borgqueenx]

can no one please attach a simple shortcut? so it start automaticly and does not ask to unload?

[CharlyV]

please help me create shortcut, i dont understand the readme enough...thanks.

DL new version 0.4
3 different shortcuts included.

[KukurikU]

Does the GSenStart ask to unload or not?
and to what folder shall i put the shortcut?

[aqeelhaider]

Hi Guys,

Some one can upload this application to another server as i am not able to download it from the existing link.

Thanks.

Me neither, link seems down.

[S_K]

Me neither, link seems down.
Tested. Link work.

[borgqueenx]

and is there any way to let this work on the touchflo menu?

some users might like that ability, some users not...i'm one that will like it:P

[modul]

May I ask for what you need this? The typical way to hold your device ist the vertical one, so it make sense to me that it looks like it is not possible. If you watch Videos about the Pro, you will see that there is also no TF in the landscape- mode.

[borgqueenx]

it works, in device locked you can see it working. it not fits the screen, but still fun to show and see.

[zedzed1]

it works, in device locked you can see it working. it not fits the screen, but still fun to show and see.

how did you do that? mine tf3d don't rotate aotomatic

[borgqueenx]

only works if the device is locked. else touchflo will not turn. i hope it can at the next version...

[pedmond]

Great application - it rotates in any direction, even upside down!

[Ronnymes]

Is it possible to rotate in Outlook, and get a full querty keyboard?
something like #window(poutlook)

[htckaiseruser]

This works great, just love it with sms and email,now i can hold it with both hands and type with my thumbs! just awesome!!! thnx a lot

[deika95]

Nobody can help me to rotate only TomTom ? Thanks

[Ronnymes]

Love it!! great program!!

[hallatore]

Great program!
I have't had a chance to test it yet as i'm getting my Diamond this week :)

Hopefully this program with a good exclude list will be included in most of the custom rooms :D

[galinha]

Thats The Best !!!!

[lightman3dd]

WOW Awesome!!!

[Spawn12]

Wow awesome program!!! big big kudos to you sir...i can rotate the screen whilst tapping out an email or sms...absolutely brilliant.

[htckaiseruser]

Nobody can help me to rotate only TomTom ? Thanks

just put everything you DONT want to rotate in the exclude list
the rest will be rotated. it aint that difficult

[deika95]

How can add contacts, calendar and dial phone ?

[htckaiseruser]

How can add contacts, calendar and dial phone ?

You want to exclude the contacts,calendar and dialer??
The readme file explains alot,its in the zipfile

[amir77a]

Brilliant.

Thanks.

[keerttttt]

Very nice, 1 question though. Sometimes (especially when i'm lying on the floor/in bed etcetera) the screen keeps flipping a side when i want it to stay in portrait. In this case i'm also talking about opera.

Would it be possible to make another shortcut or some to enable te g sensor completely? so that means also in opera?

Edit: in case you are wondering, i know you can unload the gsens, but that would'nt disable the opera flipping i suppose.

[jpresencia]

all right, a already got to exclude commmanager.exe, but please, how can i exclude the dieler????

cprog #window(cprog), #window(cprog.exe) and even #window(dialer) do not work..

any help, please???

[tretre]

For people having problems with the g sensor (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2320158)
is there a way to calibrate? Maybe some registry values?

(Awesome prog btw)

[gunggu]

only works if the device is locked. else touchflo will not turn. i hope it can at the next version...

it can, just delete the #window(MANILA) on config, but i wouldnt do that if I were you because it will make it a mess...the TF3D doesnt meant to be in a landscape mode; anyways...for me the case is opposite.

How do I disable the autorotate if the device is locked? I tried almost excluding everything but it still rotates...

[gunggu]

all right, a already got to exclude commmanager.exe, but please, how can i exclude the dieler????

cprog #window(cprog), #window(cprog.exe) and even #window(dialer) do not work..

any help, please???

try #window(phoneagent)

[saveferris]

Is anyone having issues with the status bar and start menu button dissapearing? only a soft reset brings it back!

[KukurikU]

Is anyone having issues with the status bar and start menu button dissapearing? only a soft reset brings it back!
same here...it start after i used the shortcut to automatically start the prog....:(
i deleted the shortcut, softreset and now i am starting the prog manually.
it happ again...bug...

[JeeHaa]

Some suggestions for a basic config dialog:
1) Define rotation delay (only rotate after device has been in a position for x seconds)
2) Option to include or exclude by default (some people want to use it for selected apps only, rather than for everything).
3) Option to exclude known windows system dialogs by default (only work for installed progs).
4) Selection list of apps (easy selection of windows rather than manually having to edit the txt config file, which is obviously very error-prone)
5) Checkbox for auto-startup with WM

That would certainly make it a Diamond killer-app!

[bing69]

Does someone now the class of spbmobileshell??

Try to decrease the value for timeout (#timeout(1000)) in CFG.

[CharlyV]

Nobody can help me to rotate only TomTom ? Thanks

As I said, pls read the readme file.

#onlyfor(1)
Remove all other #window commands/parameters in CFG
Add new #window for TomTom
We not have TomTom, so we can´t tell you the right windows title/class.

[CharlyV]

Please don´t ask me for further windows titles/classes for any apps.
You have to find out for your self.

[bing69]

[CharlyV]

[sebekg]

Is there any way to disable the Home screen from rotating when the device is locked?

Like mentioned above - it doesnt fit properly!

Any idea how do it ???

[zimonia]

I dont know if there is a program what does it already for the diamond, but maybe its a idea to implement a feature that works like muting a phone call but then it mutes the alarm.

So when the wake-up alarm goes off u flip the phone and the alarm is turned off/snoozes. This already exists in a program for symbian but i havent seen it for win mobile thus far.

It seems like a nice feature to me though i have to admit i have no idea how much work it would be.

[giando11]

Anyone post the line command for the TomTom programs?

[anheuer]

Small issue,

Maybe someone can help.....

When you press the upper bar then you get a screen with the options like:
battery and phone signal and notifications.

When this is open and you turn your phone it goes to landscape.
and when the screen then disappears after 4 sec. then it retunes to the home screen.

than you see that the home screen is turns as well.
way to get it back is the same way it turned to landscape.

does anyone know what to add in the txt file to keep it from going landscape when that screen is called upon?

Thank you,

[j0bro]

Indeed, the System Status screen cannot be alt-tabbed to determine its process name or window class from the GSen CFG tool. Does anyone know its name so it can be put in the GSen config list?

[AnnaW]

Wow, the best tool for the diamond. Many, many thaaaaaaanks !!!!!!

[rwijnhov]

Could you make an app to calibrate the sensor? Mine is off using teeter.

[saveferris]

Does anybody know the command in gsen to stop the screen rotating on an incoming call, it makes it impossible to answer the call.

Thanks guys.

[Kirkaiya]

Excellent, thank you VERY MUCH to the developer who put this together.

I've been explaining to friends and co-workers for the past week that at some point, some very clever developer would figure out how to hook up the earlier, manual "rotate by button" tweak to the g-sensor, and now they did.

I *love* that I can now answer SMS and email using the keyboard in landscape mode, since my fingers made typing on the full qwerty in portrait a hit-and-miss affair (literally).

Thanks again!

I second this motion.

[zimonia]

I second this motion.

I looked up the program for symbian, its called flipsilent.
U can select if u want the phone to mute the call or end the call and if u want the wake-up alarm to stop or snooze when flipped.

[mjt2810]

Using v1.0, noticed bug in that it switched off the cleartype fonts for me, and I couldn't re-initiate them until I diabled the gsens app.

[borgqueenx]

would be nice if the app didnt rotate during games.

Controls ingame are fucked up when this app is on.

[pedmond]

I think there is a list of exclusions. Why not use that?

[nummer20]

Add #window(Phone) to the text file...

[AnnaW]

About cleartype, so far i know windows mobile refuses to work in landscape mode, even when enabled.
Saw somewhere a tweak, not sure it is working.

[borgqueenx]

I think there is a list of exclusions. Why not use that?

where...? not on first page or in readme or in program files where GSen is located.

[pedmond]

where...? not on first page or in readme or in program files where GSen is located.

Quoting from Readme:

You can use configuration shortcut for edit configuration file.
This file can include this command:
#window(text or class name) - add window description
#timeout(value) - default value 1000 ms
#onlyfor(0|1) - if 0 auto rotate work for all programm except defined by #window, otherwise ONLY for this program.
By default program not rotate screen if Manila or Teeter is foreground application, but you can edit this list.

Is this not what you need?

[borgqueenx]

Quoting from Readme:



Is this not what you need?

i want to exclude the game the quest, i dont think its as easy as this:
#window(thequest)

[lightman3dd]

found two small "bugs"in this awesome application (I'm using v1):

1) when the device is locked, the screen flip also if it's displayed the today screen with manila running

2) mute ring does not works flipping diamond face down

[borgqueenx]

how can i exclude a game or application installed or with a path to the .exe or folder?

[lesteryh]

Really hope that we can have the function to choose what application to rotate instead of what application not to rotate.

[zimonia]

Really hope that we can have the function to choose what application to rotate instead of what application not to rotate.

U already can, read the readme file.

#onlyfor(0|1) - if 0 auto rotate work for all programm except defined by #window(text or class name)
#onlyfor(0|1) - if 1 auto rotate works only for programm defined by #window(text or class name)

[mcwtrekkie]

Been using this for a while now. Have to say; it's an simple idea, yet really useful and effective.

Is there a way to exclude certain orientations (Like inverted portrait/upsidedown)?

[Magic_Knight]

Thanks to the guys of SKTools now Diamond owners have a fantastic tool to auto-rotate their favourite applications !

Good job ! ;)

[Caspertje19]

I'v been using this app for a couple of day's now and I must say: it is usefull.

The only thing that bugs me is:
it isn't as quit responsive as I expected. It just takes to long to rotate the screen in an app and/or menu. The status bar(start, signal etc) is sometimes disappearing. At the moment it is to slow and to buggy for me, but I keep this thread in mind, because I like the idea of this app. But maybe it's just WM6.1 that slows it's down. For example: HTC Album will rotate the picture very responsive and very quick. Maybe(I don't know) it is because HTC Album uses the 3D acc. graphics while WM6.1 simply can't make use of it...

anyway: keep up the good work, will watch this thread for the future

[andrewloh]

THis auto-rotation is very great for Diamond.
However, how to disable the auto-rotation in dialer ? it always make me call to wrong person when i just want to hangup a call. :(

[craigiecraigie4]

Hell, this is such an impressive application. Kudos to SK team - adds great cred to their team! One wonders why HTC didn't do this themselves?

Guys, some apps I would happily pay for:
- Use scroll wheel in other apps where I can choose what each app does (zoom/volume/scroll)
- Other uses for accelerometer such as snooze (covered above), and gestures (to replace missing hard buttons)
- A more fleshed-out version of Gsen that allows for a config interface, turn off phone vs turn off screen when face down, default rotation for specified apps, etc etc

Keep up the great work! Been a loyal SK Tools subscriber for many years.

[Peio64]

As said before, that app is a must-have, taht sould have been implemented by htc as an option in settings!
One question: does it significantly affect battery life?

[JeeHaa]

Small bug:
- Edit config
- Save
- Settings are saved properly, but the old config is somehow releaded on-screen (changes are not visible until you restart the app)

Suggestions:
- OK button closes the config app (= Exit)
- Add HTCYoutube to excluded apps in default list

[wanhohon]

After installed GSen, all other application can't be really closed by press the X, they all still running in background unless I close them in task menu.

[leecotton]

I'm using Gsen V1.0, and the Teeter game is listed in the config as one not to be rotated (obviously!). However, if I try to start the game in a landscape orientation, I get an error message (A problem has occured with Labyrinth.exe). It will start up fine in portrait orientations.

This is probably a problem with the game app rather than gsens, but I thought I'd point it out.

Great app by the way, really shows off the coolness of the device!

Lee

[wensing]

I noticed that the change in orientation is only done when actually tilting the phone.
If the phone is held sideways, the orientation changes.
When the Home button is pressed, manilla appears in portrait mode, even when the phone is held sidways. I know this is a limitation of manilla.
But when I use the taskmanager to go back to the program, the orientation is not changed anymore.

It would be nice if Gsen is not only sensing the change in G, but also checking if it is still in the correct orientation corresponding to the current G. It should reapply the change in orientation if the foreground window is not in de exclusion list.

Why would I need this?
When I accidently go to Home and then open TomTom again, it is not in landscape mode anymore. And it is not handy to take the phone from the holder, put it upwards, and then put it sideways back in the holder.

[bairas]

Add #window(Phone) to the text file...
Unfortunately this doesn't work for me.
It still rotates the screen when in dialer.
Also what's the command for the "today screen"? I don't use manila.
Thanks in advance.
Other than these i think that it's one of the most usefull programs for the diamond.

[S_K]

1.1
- in #window can be defined process name
as example for exlude phone need add #window(cprog.exe)
- Edit->Select process name menu item added
- #fdscreenoff(0|1|2)
1- screen off
2- suspend device

[Blackfire]

Fast updates :D

Could it be possible to stop rotation automatic when phone is standby?
When recieving a call and device is upsidedown in pocket it is not possible to use the screen.

Thanks again this great application

[S_K]

1.2
- "Save bug" fixed

[Magic_Knight]

Where can I download 1.2 ?
On your site (SKTools) it is not (yet) available :(

[S_K]

In the readme file still standing 1.1???

[Magic_Knight]

Thanks :D

It would be nice in future versions if you can specify executable names instead of Window Class/Names because some applications have unrecognizable names. As an alternative show application's small icon (when available) beside their Window Class/Names.

Anyway good job :)

[CharlyV]

No, it is 1.2

Other than these i think that it's one of the most usefull programs for the diamond.

To disable rotate today screen (using without manilla): #window(desktop)
To disable rotate phone/dialer: #window(phone) It's working!!!!

If do not work, try soft-reset after edit the config file!

Hi
Great App,
Stupid HTC to not have integrated at fist in the TouchFlow

The Very good App of A_C called S2P with is perfect for MP3 seem really hate
Gsen, even if I says to Gsen to exclude S2P : #windows(S2P.exe)
Are they compatibility problem with Flash software for exemple ?

[Caspertje19]

Hi

Just wait for the Touch Pro to be released. Since this phone has a HW keyboard wich slides out, they 'must' create a TF3D wich support landscape

GSen = Great utility!

An suggestion:
Can you add 3 for #fdscreenoff which means -> lock keyboard and suspend screen?

[janegsm]

Could it be possible to stop rotation automatic when phone is standby?
When recieving a call and device is upsidedown in pocket it is not possible to use the screen.


Yes, I have this problem to.
When device is off he must not rotate.
I hope it can be made in next version.

Very nice app. :)

[lwclam]

How do you exclude spb mobile ?

#window(MobileShell.exe)

[bairas]

Thanks for the 1.2.
Now everything works as expected and it's a great utility.

[cojones]

Congratulations on one of the most useful utilities I have ever come across. I have a question regarding it's entry in apptodate though...

Every time I run apptodate, sometimes every few days, sometimes a few times a day, GSEN always says requiring update and always says version 1.0.

Does this mean that a new version is constantly available (at version 1.0) or is it an issue with apptodate?

I shall post this question in the apptodate thread also.

[bigruss]

Excellent application, thankyou.

Feature request - is it possible that when you turn the phone upside down (to put it in your pocket) it does not rotate the screen but instead turns the screen off. Maybe with a timeout option so that it doesn't do this by mistake.
This would be very handy and would also solve the problem people are having with trying to answer the phone when the screen has gone upside down in their pocket. I'm also fairly sure there are not many people using this upside down rotated mode to use their phone. cheers, it's great at it is just making a suggestion Russ

[janegsm]

I have #onlyfor(1)
Have sombody it working with TomTom?
I have now tryed: (append with gsen cgf, edit, Select ...)
#window(TomTom Navigator.exe)
#window(TomTom Navigator)
#window(TomTom)

With #onlyfor(0) it works with TomTom but I like #onlyfor(1) more.

[foegie]

thnx for the great tool, just 2 remarks:

- this has been addressed before, but when the phone is locked it should not be able to rotate, as the (default) tf3d does not support landscape

- After sending an sms while in landscape modus, then closing the sms application the tf3d sms component is also loaded in landscape before it goes pack to portrait mode.

Both issues should be fixed with a landscape modus for TF3D, but maybe there is something you could as temp fix.

[bing69]

I have the same problem, with GSen 0.8 it works fine.

[dennydb]

I'm having some problems with S2U2.
It's working but the slider is not anymore animated.
Do you have some suggestion?

[sandro.bertini]

To make it work with TomTom (and any other application, actually) open TomTom (or the application you need to configure), open GSen Config, position the cursor where you want to include the #WINDOW line and use EDIT->Select Process Class or Select Process Name and choose the appropriate application from the list. It is sometimes not that obvious but you can usually find it by elimination (look at the list before and after you open the app, if needed).

In the case of TomTom the line is:
#window(MunichWinClass)

Good Luck.

[Sergio PC]

Thank you Very very very much works perfectly. I really apreciate.
Dammm boys this phone is getting sexier by the minute.

On the other hand what you boys think of a shake controll, (i think nokia has it on n95s)
If you get a call you can "shake" to answer, see what i mean?

Good luck with your kick ass phone boys!!!!!!

[Sergio PC]

Same problems with S2U2.
I get a weird rotation when i recieve a call. Im testing disabling caler id and a bunch of other stuff.Ill let you know if i find a way to make them work peacefully

[Sergio PC]

I'm having some problems with S2U2.
It's working but the slider is not anymore animated.
Do you have some suggestion?

Got it dude, go to the s2us setting and then scrol down to advanced and turn off direct draw. that will enable the animation back.
Good luck dude.

[bencassie]

Does anyone else find that some times the start menu / notification icons at the top remain black and although they can be touched, they are invisible and there is no way to get them back?

[Sergio PC]

Soft reset through the advanced settings will solve.

[p3eps]

I had one of the first versions installed and thought it was great, but had to uninstall it because of the Locked screen rotating.
Heres hoping it gets fixed soon so I can reinstall. It seems to be one of the most asked for fixes when you look through all 18 pages (so far!), but never seems to have been addressed.

Please fix it so it doesn't rotate when the phone is locked!

I put fdscreenoff(2) and it did put the device in suspend mode but when someone is calling, one of the Diamond perfect features that is if you flip down the device, the ringtone is mute. But if i use fdscreenoff(2), it put in suspend mode instead, is there anyway that i use this command and have the ringtone mute together?

i mean fdscreenoff works perfectly together with this feature. Thank You

[craigiecraigie4]

Is there yet a solution (ie does anyone know the window class) to rotation during incoming call? Can't see it in this thread but perhaps I'm being thick? Even onlyfor(1) is not solving this for me; get rotation during incoming call, and rotation of keypad and several other things thereafter.

[bing69]

Strange but it works!!!!

[sakky]

try #window(shell32.exe)

not working

[DiemetriX]

I would love an option to only rotate the programs listed in a list.
That way I woudn't need to update the every time I install program.
This would also fix the dialer problem.

The program should have the option of running in exclude mode(normal) or include mode (only on specified programs).

I still have problems making TomTom rotate, here is what i have tried:


#window(TomTom Navigator.exe)
#window(MunichWinClass)
#window(TomTom Navigator)
#onlyfor(1)
#fdscreenoff(1)

still doesnt worK?

[Caspertje19]

I'v already post that the program for me was to slow when rotating(a couple of days ago).
Now I have seen your video(1st post) I'm wondering why GSen won't rotate as quck as it does on that video. I'm using v1.2 and I have flashed Elite 2.0
At my diamond it takes about a full 2 seconds(even 3) to rotate. And when it rotates the screen, it takes soem time to build the screen.

If it is as fast as it is on your video, than it would be great!
Anybody ideas why it's so slow on my diamond.
I don't have many programs running on my diamond, enough memmory free, I don't get it

[nuumuun]

Yeah i have the #timeout(1000) aswell, just forgot to write it in here.

When i look at the class settings while tomtom runs i find the MunichWinClass, but still doesnt work, the screen doest rotate in the app.
The screen turns of tho when i turn it the screen upside down, so that works fine? .

Brilliant, works fine, thanks a lot.

Sadly, the same happens to me too.
I have freeram assigned in the right soft-key and by running it , in 5 secs it restores the lost ram AND brings back the taskbar.
But this isn't the best solution, hopefully the will come with the answer eventually.

Also I expierenced the problem where the upper menu bar with start disapppears.

Application is going the right way though!

*edit: also found an issue when you want to shut down the phone. When the confirmation message is shown the rotation is working, this is not really handy.

Why there is no one mention about this, "fdscreenoff" should be disabled when a call is being received (ringtone mute?)

[SimonW500]

Small issue,

Maybe someone can help.....

When you press the upper bar then you get a screen with the options like:
battery and phone signal and notifications.

When this is open and you turn your phone it goes to landscape.
and when the screen then disappears after 4 sec. then it retunes to the home screen.

than you see that the home screen is turns as well.
way to get it back is the same way it turned to landscape.

does anyone know what to add in the txt file to keep it from going landscape when that screen is called upon?

Thank you,

Using the latest version (v1.4) this still seems to be a bug, summarized as:

If you rotate the handset while the large status bar button screen is displayed (tapping upper right of the screen when this 'feature' is enabled), while this itself doesn't rotate when you go back to TF3D this has been rotated (and continues to be able to be rotated).

Not a huge one, just for the record.. :)

Keep up the good work!

[SimonW500]

After installed GSen, all other application can't be really closed by press the X, they all still running in background unless I close them in task menu.

Confirm this to still be an issue in the latest version (v1.4):

If you have your Task Manager configured so as the 'X' closes the program on tap (as opposed to minimizing on tap and closing on hold), after installation of GSen this reverts back to Minimize on tap.

This can of course be (seemingly) manually then set back to the desired setting.

[CharlyV]

We will keep updating, if we can reproduce bugs and solve it.

Hello :

Help

[Lamarque]

For me the combination foronly(1) / window(Tomtom Navigator) does not work either.

What I did is:
set Gsen #foronly(0)
Install Mortscript and run the following script instead of TomTom:

Run("%InsertYourPathToGsenHere%\gsen.exe")
RunWait("%InsertYourPathToTomtomHere%\TomTom Navigator.exe")
Kill("gsen.exe")

No solution for the problem (Might be problems with the space in the Window title?) but a workaround.

And you dont need to have Gsen running in the background all the time.

[saveferris]

Yep I'm also getting the cannot connect to gsensor (3) on startup.

I have tried both ways in adding the shortcut.

By tapping on the shortcut called " GSenCFG ".
File > Startup
Confirm with " Yes

and manually adding the shortcut with Total commander.


I'm currently using Bepes bElite rom, it maybe incompatible with it in some way.

[ceevee369]

I gave the last release a try-out on TLR's V1 though what happened (only the last days) is that even the TF3D repositions itself randomly.

I switched on my device and found the screen 180 degrees upside.
Moving it resulted in horizontal crash.

Was it not supposed not to interact with the vertical only GUI?

Most probably due to the ROM as I did not read any similar posts?
Maybe something to look into for next releases?

RunWait("%InsertYourPathToTomtomHere%\TomTom Navigator.exe")
Kill("gsen.exe")

No solution for the problem (Might be problems with the space in the Window title?) but a workaround.

And you dont need to have Gsen running in the background all the time.

Before TomTom didnt work with #window(MunichWinClass) and #onlyfor(1), but I had also to #window(TomTom Navigator.exe) within the cfg.

Now I have only #window(MunichWinClass) (and other apps) in the cfg and now it works fine.

(I have timeout: #timeout(500))

Hi all, I've installed the Gsen1.5 in my HTC Diamond, everything run smooth, my taskbar also got no problem... only thing is sometimes I have to reload the programme, cos it sometimes not running and I have to Reload the application... dunno whether u guys facing the same problem?? anyway I like it very very much, it makes my diamond looks different :)

Yes it does seem to happen in v.1.5 - it's only happened a couple of times so I haven't been able to pinpoint any reason or replicate it at will yet.

Since I'm using GSen with the whitelist-feature it's a little bit annoying, that I have to rotate the device back to it's old position before I leave that application. In case I forget that i have to launch this specific application again to rotate it back to portrait.

So maybe it's possible to add an autorotate feature if you leave the application. I've heart that the HTCSensor library sends out events, so your code does not keep track of open applications all the time, but just at the time an event is triggered.

So maybe it is a option to allow one last rotation back to default orientation when you have left the whitelist application.

thanks for the last version. Only one remark: the #onlyfor(1) option still not works for me. If i use #onlyfor(0) with the exception list works perfect but #onlyfor(1) with the including list doesn't work

works fine for me, make sure you use the right windowclassnames, process and window names didn´t work for me either.


can we make a list of class names from applications and the app in real name behind? so everybody could copy and paste his own gsens config very fast to his needs?!
just make the begining:

#window(RESCO_EXPLORER_CLASS) ;RESCO Explorer
#window(MunichWinClass) ;TomTom7
#window(#NETCF_AGL_BASE_) ;MaspWareGPS
#window(PXLMainWnd) ;PExcel File Dialogue
#window(Pocket Word) ;PWord File Dialogue
#window(WordPad) ;PWord Edit Window
#window(BOOKWIN) ;PExcel Edit Window
#window(GoogleMapsMobile) ;Google Maps Mobile

Yes! It would be great, if Gsen rotate back the display automatic, when leave the specify program. It would be a useful feature!

Thanx!

Hey how do you make it so it goes into standby/sleep mode when you flip the phone on its screen as shown is your video

Just to let people know that the registry fix to enable ClearType in landscape mode does work with this on the Diamond:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GDI\ClearTypeSettings\Of fOnRotation = 0 (default is 1)

ClearType? what is that for?

[rtoussaint]

I also have the missing start menu using gsen 1.5. Can't determine where it goes sour yet ...

Go to GSen CFG and modify the line #fdscreenoff(0) to #fdscreenoff(1), save and try.
