hello everyone,
i own acer e101(os:windows mobile 6.5). i am having a problem with screen rotate function. when i set it to landscape mode from potrait mode, and when any one calls or i call some one, the today screen changes to potrait mode and stays as it is even when the call is discontinued. i have tried resetting it to factory settings but no success.
please help me with this. rest no problem with my cell. i have tried installing different screen rotate softwares from internet and still same problem persists.please do help.
(i am new to the site,if i have posted in wrong place,am sorry please dont ban me) waiting for help!!!
thank you in advance.
@pramodlivz,
Some apps have auto rotation built in, like BSB Tweaks for example.
Do you have a costum rom? and how do you restore to factory default?
Regards,
@Axelman8
thanks bro for your reply.
whats custom rom??
for factory reset i do the following
(start/utilities/default settings)
my phone doesn't have any gsensor for autorotation.
acer e101
processor Qualcomm MSM 7225 528 MHz processor
256MB RAM, 512MB ROM
Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional (major version 2,minor version 004)
there is an option named screen under settings/system
there in orientation there are three options
potrait(default)
landscape(left hand)
landscape(right hand)
when i set it to landscape mode, all the options including my today screen switches to landscape mode. but when someone calls or i try calling someone all the option switches to potrait mode. and it does not switch back. so all i have to do is go back to the above option to switch it landscape mode.
what i want is when i switch to landscape mode the dialer should be viewed in landscape instead of potrait and stayed that way unless i change it to potrait from the setting option.
(hope you'll can understand my need)
I know this doesn't fix the physical problem(if there is one). But it is a quick fix that should take care of it for now. Maybe assign to a hardware key for one button press deployment. Go to freewareppc.com and search for rotate screen 1.1
Normally I would give you a link to click but the moderators won't let me. Sorry.
thank you els777
i have that software. but after a call changing to landscape mode again and again is little annoying. hey acer e101 users, even you all face the same problem? please reply. is there any thread where i can ask for help?

Hi, first time poster! Anyways I recently acquired the HTC Fuze which is my first Windows mobile phone and everyhting semmed to by working fine until today. Now whenever I enter any games, the camera, or any program that requires the G-sensor it always assumes I am in landscape mode and I am unable to move to portrait mode even when the phone is fully up right.
The sensor still seems to work, but only in landscape mode. I have applied several tweaks and added several applications, but none that were anything major and none that have to do with the G-sensor (at least I think). I have also tried calibrating it several times and the every seems to work right it just won't leave landscae mode. Anyways, is there any way I can fix this without a hard reset (trying to avoid)? Also my phone is still under the ATT 30 day return policy so should I just return it and get a new one?
Thanks to anyone that can help!
does the calibration tool give any feedback?
are you sure your taking the pictures rightside up w/ the camera?
some games require u to flip out the keyboard for landscape or portriate mode, have u tried toggling the keyboard?
Yes, the calibration tool seems to work fine.
Also about the keyboard,yes I have tried that and it seems to work for some applications, but some applications stay in one mode regardless of whether I have it flipped up, down, right, left, or with the keyboard out.
Okay. it now works again, but the when I want to take a picture it is in landscape mode still. I can take a picture in portrait mode, but all the photo adjustment modes (when you tap the screen) are still in landscape, but I think I might know what caused that. I made of few adjustments to the registry to get some more camera modes and i think that might have caused it. Also, why do American cellphone carriers have to stifle innovation by removing the front camera?
Thanks for your advice Orbitrix.
G-sensor only works sometimes
Usually, the G-sensor does not rotate the phone when it is supposed to in various apps-like photos. I have tried adjusting the timing in Advanced Config and using the calibration tool. Sometimes it works perfectly, but usually, nothing happens. This is VERY frustrating!!!
Anyone have any other fixes?
Rom version: 1.90.707.4 WWE
Rom date: 8/23/08
Radio version: 1.02.25.19
Protocol version: 52.33.25.17U
Some progress??
I just noticed, that if I open the Pictures/Video program, so it brings up the screen of thumbnails, then open a photo from there, the G-Sensor doesn't work when I tilt the TP. However, if I scroll through the photos in the TF3D interface, then select a photo from there, the tilt works very quickly. (I reset interval to 75).
Happy New year everyone!
I have a problem that I could not find an answer to by doing a search. When I try to access my email folders in landscape mode I can see the folders but no words. (I can see the inbox folder but it does not say inbox next to it). Near some of the folders it looks as if all of the letters of the folder names have been place one on top of each other. It almost looks like a Chinese symbol. Sometime this is right next to the folder other times it is all the way across the screen. When the phone is in the portrait mode everything is fine. It is as if the screen isn't drawing properly.
I hope this make sense and I hope i am using the proper terms. Please go easy on me as I am new to this phone and really don't understand some of the thinks on this forum.
Thanks for any advice you might have!!!
I am seeing the same problem on my Fuze, but pretty much on everything that's text when I look at stuff in landscape mode.
When I try to enter text, the input box shows the cursor moving, but no characters show up. If I then close the keyboard, everything I typed is there in portrait mode. And I also see the jumble of text sometimes where there is a single "smudge" and the letters look like they're on top of each other.
This is VERY annoying, and I can't figure it out. I've only owned the Fuze about a week, but it seems to me it worked fine when I got it. It's as if I have installed some software (or perhaps it's one of the customization tools - I've run both Diamond Tweak and Diamond TF3D Config) that wiped out the fonts required for landscape mode.
The other thing is, it doesn't happen ALL the time, only about 80%. The rest of the time it works as it should.
Any help or ideas would be most welcome. If I can't see text entry in landscape mode, the flip out keyboard becomes useless, and I may as well have bought the thinner Touch Diamond.
I had this problem when I enabled ClearType in landscape mode...try to look at it if you have it enabled..and if so, disable it...
Thanks, that seems to have worked.
Is there a separate setting for landscape mode somewhere, or just the master ClearType on-off in Settings...Screen?
it's in Advanced Config or Diamont Tweak ..not sure, but one of it has that option
Tried that, and also modifying the registry directly, and neither worked. If the "main" ClearType setting is on in Settings...Screen, text in landscape mode is illegible no matter what else I do. The system seems to ignore the registry setting for turning it off in landscape mode.
While turning ClearType off does work, it's annoying to have to do it because the text in portrait mode looks so much better with it on. Oh well. I guess it's a bug in WinMobile 6.1.
In any case thanks for the quick response. I did a search in the forums here, and this is apparently a well know bug with no available workaround for the moment.
hmm, mine is working correctly...when I open Screen options in landscape, ClearType is Off and cannot be set to On...and in Portrait mode, it can be turned Off
DiamondTweak > 17.7 try that...if it doesn't work..hmm...flash ROMeOS or other ROM

Click to collapse
On mine, screen options in landscape mode has cleartype set to "on" and cannot be turned off. It's grayed out. It follows the setting in portrait mode - if I turn it off there, it's off in landscape, if I turn it on there, it's on in landscape.
Tried DiamondTweak, made no difference.
ADDENDUM: Well, SOMETHING made a difference, because once I reset the thing, it now acts as you describe - I have ClearType on in portrait, and off in landscape. Woohoo!
Thanks much!
I have the Stock updated rom on the HTC Fuze. I am annoyed that the caller Id/incoming call screen does not come on in landscape mode.
update (work around)
I come up with a solution that allows me to use applications in landscape mode and be able to screen incoming calls.
I had previously used advanced configuration tool 3.3.0.0 to enable landscape mode. While in landscape mode the dialer screen would malfunction if the keyboard was closed (even if I used screen changeScreen v2.78). Apparently landscape under screen in settings is different than open keyboard landscape. I had to either always have the keyboard open to view apps in landscape or answer every call.
I checked again to see if anyone else had this problem and knew a fix and came across my post. Maybe someone else with the same problem might find this post and be directed to the posts below.
I currently use the sensor to rotate certain applications. The device stays in portrait mode so the dialer cprog works (after a delay).

Hello,
today i installed Flinnys CM10 build 129 für HTC Desire-Z / Vision and im verry happy with it.
Its runs very smooth and is super resposible, even in multitasking stuff.
But i have one big problem where i cant find any sollution and hope that some of you guys could help me out.
in Camera-App Autorotation of the Display dont works, it still hangs in portrait mode, no matter if i tilt the phone or not...same in Gallery.
and in Messagers like Whatsapp the Display rotates to landscape mode if i flip out the harware Keyboard but dont rotate back to portrait mode if i close the Keyboard.
the only way to get it back to portrait mode is closing whatsapp.
I tried switching auto-rotate on and off, do full wipe, clean caches and installed rom and gapps again, tried different camera and gallery apps but nothing helps.
please coult any of you guys help me with this problem ?
I would be really happy !^^
PS: Sorry for my not well written english, cause im from germany.
And i hope this is the right forum for my problem...cause im new registered im not able to post it under android development.
many thanks and best regards
hopefull

Edit: I downloaded a sensor testing tool and it shows no reaction from the rotation sensors.
also no reaktion in games like coine dozer, where the prices in the price-view had alwas rotate.
My hardware should be ok, cause a few minutes ago on my old rom (CM9) it all worked perfectly.
