I have HTC Legend and I am using the default home screen.
I've tried to find a Home application in the list but I couldn't find
it. There is one HTC Sense, and I've configured that as application
context.
Next I have configured a gesture for the rotate stuff.
Gesture works ok, as when I do it, the Camera app starts up.
But it seams the application context is not working, because whenever
I do the gesture in other apps it loads the Camera app. What I am
doing wrong? How can I setup the correct Home screen detection?

How do I get the "Lock Device" application (found on the HTC Home plugin) to automatically lock my device after a pre-set time?
Is there an .exe file I can link to somewhere? I searched my phone and can't find anything that starts this application
Anyone know?
What is the .exe file that runs HTC Home Today Plugin?
I thought the Lock button on the apps tab of HTC Home is the default key/screen lock that comes with Windows.
AFAIK.
If that is the case, I use a program created by Armstrong, where you can set the default lock program to a button. I have mine set where Comm Mgr was. So I always use that to lock my keys/screen after I am done using the phone.
What is the default key/screen lock for windows and how do I run it (manually from file explorer)? I'm trying to build a shortcut.
what you're looking for is found in Slide2Unlock.
HTC home doesn't have that capability to my knowledge.
yes htc home does have it. tap the programs tab and by default it has a "lock device" feature. If it's not there you can add it. It's at the top of the list when you go to add programs. What I want to know is, what is that application and how do I run it outside of htc home?
I am not sure where it is in File Explorer.
Search Devicelock and/or Armstrong
He has a thread that outlines what he does pretty well. I think your answer is in there.

For evaluation only.
I've already tried slide2unlock2. But... I'll try it again. Just to see....
Really, what I want is something that takes me back to the HTC Home home screen after unlocking (not on the last tab i was on)
By HTC Home home screen i mean the home tab.
Hi
I would also like to know a Commandline to lock the Screen with HTC Lock.
Anybody a clue?

I think I am going mad so forgive me.
Can someone help me to rotate the screen to landscape with the keyboard closed? IE. manually rotate the screen.
I can't seem to find the function anywhere.
or have I missed something?
Thanks.
Just rotate the device?!
This only works in certain apps, like picture etc.
I want the Home screen, and TT7 in Landscape when in the car, and turning the screen doesn't do anything.
Any help?
The Apps themselves need to support the Rotation of the phone by implementing a hook into the Accelerometer/G-Sensor.
Like said above, TouchFlo3D Pictures and Opera do this, but most other apps do not! Just need to wait for later versions or change to landscape mode manually - if supported!
Should be (although HTC may have removed it) in Start->Settings->System (tab)->Screen, and then change the orientation. It's possible HTC removed this functionality though...
I'm guessing that Mortscript will still work on the Touch.
You could use this to rotate the screen then call the app in question?
Then when you quit the app it'll rotate back.
I forgot the name of the app, but it allowed you to rotate the Diamond for any app or any situation in the phone. It should also be able to work on the Touch Pro then.
Its called GSen it works on diamond and probably it should work for this and if its not working just wait for new release.

They have removed this option, but you can bring it back with Schap's advanced config 3.0! I haven't tried it, but I've seen the option there!
Reg Edit to set Talk key to rotate screen manually
Here's a reg hack to manually rotate your screen, only when desired.
In Settings/Buttons/ one used to be able to assign a button to <Rotate Screen>. This feature is hidden on the Touch Pro.
To get it back:
Using a Registry editor, go to:
HKeyLocalMachine/System/GDI/Rotation
Change the "HideOrientationUI" from 1 to 0
Now you can remap the talk key to do this on long press.
Pocketpowermanager puts a little icon at the bottom of the Today screen which rotates the screen (and an icon for power off, and another for soft reset). It's a great application.
Hi there
Both Gens and Gyrator work well on the Touch Pro.
Just Bing them (at bing.com).

You can get an application called gyrator 2 which will allow you to rotate without sliding out the keyboard in any screen, so like you can use it in the start menu or anywhere else, http://pocketnow.com/index.php?a=portal_detail&t=news&id=6068
Hi guys,
My problem. I'm not using the TF3D but installed SPB instead. However the question is that the screen only turns landscape when i open the key pad. Only app that it auto rotate is Opera.
It is very annoying that if i am reading news for example from a rss reader or something i have to open the key pad in order to read in landscape mode??
Is ther a fax or software which can solve my problem?
thanks everyone.
there are lots of apps that allow you to rotate a screen manually. apart from the auto rotate apps in the diamond forum, spb today plugins usually come with an item (through add item when adding an item to tab) that lets you change the screen oriention via a shortcut.
using something like aeplus can allow you to map a hardware button to screen rotation
Thanks friend
I want to DISABLE autorotate while slideout the keyboard (and map it to the button). Is that possible?
i'm pretty sure u can disable but I'm not sure where in the registery to change.... however, forcing rotation as I asked before I cannot do this way and I think I have to install something... but I'm not sure
I've already used the search function and can't find an answer.
I've enabled the AutoLock feature through Advanced Config, I find it pretty useful . The only big gripe I have about it is as soon as it locks, it return automatically to the Home screen tab on TF3D (for example if I'm on the music tab, then it locks, when I want to unlock, it's back on the Home tab). Also, if I'm running an app (like Opera), it'll automatically become minimized when it locks, and when I unlock it, I'm back at the Home screen tab and have to maximize the app again. It's a minor thing but can get quite annoying.
Any reg tweak to prevent the autolock feature from minimizing any runnign apps and returning to the Home screen when it does lock?
i guess no one knows?
Hi Guys,
I just recently bought the U11 and I noticed that when double clicking the power button to launch the camera, the camera would launch, then dim, then un-dim.
I thought this was odd, and I eventually realized that it's due to Sense Home launching in the background as well.
So when I double click the power button, launch the camera, then tap the "Recent Apps" view, I see Camera, and Sense Home open in the preview.
When I tap Sense Home, it just brings me to my home screen with all my icons and whatnot.
Weird thing is that when I launch the camera by tapping the camera icon I don't get the dimming/un-dimming, and Sense Home doesn't launch.
I occasionally see it in the "Recent Apps" view, so it's being launched by other apps as well.
The minor annoyance is that when I close the open Sense Home window in the Recent Apps, it takes maybe 2 seconds for the icons on my home screen to load up, and they load bottom to top individually.
Usually, when I don't see Sense Home open, then go to my home screen, all apps load instantaneously as if they had always been there.
I'm assuming it's like ending the process on explorer.exe on windows and running it again.
So I'm looking for a solution where I can prevent Sense Home from being launched as an app.
