I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this question, but I'm developing a windows mobile application for the htc touch pro and I'd like to be able to lock the screen in portrait view. Does anyone know if there is a way to disable the landscape view then the keyboard is slid out?
try this:
Not sure if this is what you are looking for but if you just want to prevent the useless popup in landscape mode, than just change this reg-key:
HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\EnableLandscape from "true" to "false"

Is there a way to set windows mobile 6 to permanent landscape? any program that does this?
I had some kind of menu that could put the display to landscape, but it would revert back if i slide out the keyboard and then slide it back. Same thing was with the rotate display/screen program.
Anybody know how to do this?
Cheers
Can not do it.
It's hardcoded somewhere in the OS to rotate screen when hardaware tells it that the keyboard is slided out.
You could try to remove the magnets that check whether the keyboard is out or not.
Is it a possibility to show landscape view when my device's orientation is initiated via either auto rotation (i use gyrator) or through a shortcut (like assigned to a button). As far as i know the landscape page only pops up when you slide the keyboard open but i would like it to show also when i turn my device sideways initiating the auto rotate function from gyrator..

I get landscape view just fine when i'm using gyrator, so i'm not sure why you wouldn't be getting it.

Did you create an event for it? When I rotate the screen with Gyrator then it always ends up in portrait version of TF3D (rotated by 90 degrees) which is messed up.
When you rotate your TP do you get the landscape version of TF3D?
you can also set a long press of the phone key to cause a screen rotation manually: http://www.fuzemobility.com/?p=1200
yah that's what I get not the 8 button view like the hardware keyboard causes when slid open
so nobody solved this problem yet ? I would like to use auto rotate too but still with no succes...
I have a fuze and don't like the landscape manila (non TP2 version) when you slide the keyboard out. Is there a way to disable it so that manila will stay in potrait even when you slide the keyboard out? Is there a way to make it so that if your in landscape in another program say surfing on opera and close it, it will revert back to potrait of TF3D and if you simply are on your homescreen and slide your keyboard out it will stay potrait? I hate having to close shut my keyboard just to access something on manila and then reopen the keyboard to use my hard keys. I did several google searches and havn't found a solution.
bump, is it even possible?
Kinda lol
You can disable the landscape screen but it will try to put whatever screen is showing into landscape. Needless to say its not pretty.
Can anyone let me know what is causing this problem on my phone??
I want to run landscape mode but every time I enable Landscape it leave me with screen problem (The photo attach are screen shots for my phone running in land scape mode [right side is the bottom], where the black screen is the home screen, the photo tab and music tab are also mess up.)
I mean my phone runs perfectly fine in portrait mode but once I enable landscape I have problem
I tried enable landscape with bsb tweaks, Touch tools, Gconfig and all 3 program leave me with the same screen problem. (I can enable landscape and turn off rotation but that is just portrait mode again.)
I am using official Traditional Chinese rom:
manila 2.5.1921161930
(I have CHT install)
And I really want to figure out how to run the phone in landscape mode without have to deal with a black screen on home screen. Can anyone help me???
You are using Windows Mobile 6.5. You cannot rotate these features in 6.5 unfortunately.
If you want to change this... grab yourself a new ROM... and flash it.
so i need 6.5X??? That blows.....
Is going to be hard to find a good Rom that support traditional Chinese....
I have been using my the docking station for my titan and am loving it however when docked the start screen remains "sideways" as well as hubs and index search.
rather than a question about landscape mode because maybe that functionality isn't programmed or possible. Is there a way to rotate the start screen to portrait facing me while the phone is docked landscaped? I can picture a huge black bar or empty space off to the right which is fine.
are there any registry edits maybe out there or?
I don't believe anybody has found a way to force the Start screen into landscape mode. This is true even with those Windows phones that have landscape slide-out keyboard (which normally force the phone into Landscape mode while the keyboard is out). I see no evidence of support for a landscape start screen in anything that I've yet seen of WP7.
