Changescreen will not change - Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps

Tried changescreen but it will not change to landscape.
In landskape it will blink for a half second and go back to default.
Any idea?

For some reason changescreen ONLY works if i have TF3D2 tweak an enable landscape...
If i disable TF3D2 tweak or uninstall it,changescreen will not go in landscape.
Anyone else got problem with changescreen?

changescreen doesnt work for me also...
ended up using the registry tweak

Changescreen is "pooling" app. It means that it is running in background and checking G-Sensor every X seconds. This consumes CPU power (and decreases a little battery time).
There is other app - Flip It. It does the same but is installed as Windows Service. It uses less resources and as I've seen is not pooling G-Sensor but it's hooking to G-Sensor rotation event.

Strange characters

I have noticed that sometimes when I have my keyboard out in Opera the screen draws the characters I type oddly or not at all. When I shut the keyboard and use the on screen keyboard it works fine. This specifically happens if I select save as for a download. I have also noticed in some other apps, namely Kilmist RegEdit. Any ideas?

Could it be, that you have enabled ClearType in landscape?
Thanks Deep Thought, you nailed it.

You're welcome mate! I had the problem myself and would never have found the cause if it wasn't for xda-devs!
Thanks for the idea to turn off cleartype in landscape. Fixed some of my problems too!!!
Like I said I had problems too. Somehow ClearType messes up in combination with TPs VGA driver in landscape.

Screen turning itself off?

Just wondering if anyone has encoutered a problem with the screen turning itself off. It is not a settings issue but the screen randomly turns itself off in the middle of being used so i am guessing it mght be something to do with the light sensor perhaps?
Well if anyone else has the same problem or can offer some sort of explanation i would be very interested to hear about it.
Thanks in advance
i think this might be related to autolock. if you have that enabled, disable the screen dimming and let it turn off after say 2 minutes. then you should be ok.

I've had a similar issue recently - suddenly the screen started to switch off after 30 seconds without use, no matter what settings I configured in the energy system settings. No explanation, probably a bug in the 6.1 stock ROM. (I'm on another ROM now...)

Ditto.
Own ROM 6.1 (nothing special - really just Google maps and teeter removed)
Apps:
4 Column Start Menu.cab
FdcSoft TaskMgr 3.1.cab
GoogleMaps.CAB
GpsCycleComputer_3.114.CAB
htcAddicts cleanRAM v1.6.cab
MobileTweet.CAB
NETCFv35.cab
NetworkPlugin_1_0_30468_1.CAB
PocketShield.CAB
rar.ppc_arm.cab
SoftReset_Suspend.CAB
same here. tried some reg tweaks but none disabled poweroff after 30 seconds
it happens to me every time after i use igo8,
so my solution is to go to the MANILA power setting (not the default windows setting) and turn DIM off.
cannot find manila power settings. where are they?

i have Tom's 6.5 rom so when i goto regular settings it takes me to manila style setting & not the default one.
I have that problem to ?
I have a 6.1 windows, what can I do to deal with this problem ?
Thankx
in power settings enable & disable dim it will fix this but only till next time... i do it after every time i use igo8.
this is especially annoying when using the topaz as hard disk or navigating via tomtom. hope they will bring out a fix soon.
Think my problem was slightly similar as I was using the original shipped ROM. Well phone is with HTC now in for screen repair so hopefully the problem will be solved.
I'm guessing it was probably down to an install of some 3rd party application. anyway will repost after i get my td2 back tomorrow

How to enable autolock via regedit ?

Hello,
Auto lock on my HTC Touch Pro doesn't work. How to enable this feature via registry ?
Regards
Bildos
believe Diamond Tweak has an option for it
though i'm running EnergyROM, and autolock causes many problems (backlight in dim mode doesn't come back to normal when i reactivate,...)

Rotate screen

Hey, my mom is using a Samsung Omnia (the first 8gb version) All original never been updated before. The phone got a standard function to rotate your screen when you hold your phone in landscape mode. Is there a app that works correctly. I've tried rotate me and BsB Tweaks. The first one won't work automaticly and the second one works after you've selected your app that must rotate. I've got several apps, so it takes me a lot of time. Also I'm not trusting BsB Tweaks.
Shortly is there an application for my HTC Touch Diamond 2 with a stock win 6.5 ROM that can rotate my screen instantly?
Try Gyrator...

Still working with BsB Tweaks, still not sure if it works correctly.

Best rotation program

I often hold my HD2 upside down to get better reception while surfing the Internet. I've been using AE Button Plus to manually rotate the screen and sometimes I've tried Gyrator which has been unstable sometimes. I've now found a program which is better than Gyrator... ChangeScreen v2.78.
It's not as heavy as Gyrator and doesn't show up in the task manager.

Just a hint if someone else is looking for a goot rotation application.
Brgds...
Just wanted to say that this was exactly what I was looking for, so thanks for posting it .
The solution to all my problems... Leon 1.4. WWE was only turning to reverse landscape (+270° or -90°), which I don't like, now it turns to +90°.
Perfect!
