Screen rotation - HTC Oxygen

Hello,
I'm still using original WM5 ROM with the device.
but only one thing impacts me - I can not rotate the screen to landscape orienation, I need it for one application, which I use daily.
I've tried to rotate programmaticaly, but API call returns that rotation is not supported.
If someone has WM6.1 romon the device, can you tell me please:
Is screen rotation supported with WM6.1 rom?
Rgds.

How can I test it?

here is a simple sample which has to detect this ability
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms903593.aspx
I suppose there are applications which can do this, but I don't know about it

Tried it with a little tool I created using the code you send. And it is not working (At least in the ZFree version). Maybe the dragonball version supports it, but I doubt it.

thank you very much for your attempt!

WM6 - VGA ?!!??

Hi there,
I flashed succefully my Athena X7500 to WM6.
Now I'm searching for screen resolution. Where can I change it? Isn't it possible to change to 640x480 with installing any separated application?
Best Regards,
netzzwerg
I dont think WM6 has true VGA.
All I can find is an extra menu option on PocketIE to use hires mode, nothing else though
try mvr true vga 1.3 works a treat....
^Can you attach the setup file for TrueVga 1.3
Thanks in advance.

Sorry, I guess bad moment
here are some screen shots with MvrTrueVga... While it adds some more screen space, with my eyes its a little too small for most apps. You can modify the font size, but then its too big when you switch back to qvga...It has some uses, but now with IE's high res and font size adjustment, I don't use it much. I used to use it a lot with my universal though.
Hi eagle1,
Try using MVR 1.2..I found it better than 1.3.Were u able to get Windowslive working..?
I installed MVRTrueVga 1.3 and Windows Live is not working properly with it.
Also It has problem showing windows live today's plugin...
Version 1.2 used to run Windows Live correctly including the today's plugin.
Also note that some satnavs (based on Igo My Way) don't work in true VGA mode - you have to switch first

Has anyone else tried 1.2?
On WM5 Ameo I used to have 1.3 on, but whenever I switched back the WLM Today plugin would be horrendously slow.
Now that I'm on WM6, I think I'll stick with QVGA. Pocketbreeze is still nice and small but I sometimes had trouble whilst not sat down that when I tried to click the volume icon i'd miss and hit the signal indicator, or vice verca on VGA.
I installed the windows live 5.0 cab file (i used on my universal) over the top of the install in wm6.
It works now
I have installed 1.3 on WM6 , and the problem I get is that the Phone Dialler is about a cm north where it should be , meaning you can't see the numbers you dial
I am a bit slow , am I missing something here ? or has anyone else had this problem ?
Please, show schreenshot of backlight setting screen in VGA mode.

^^^ This is another problem I have ! I can't post a screenshot as I have uninstalled it for now , but I had two stumpy , short sliders with circles at each end , they didn't work though !

you cant adjust the sliders. try using pocketplus as that has a slider icon on the today screen to adjust brightness so can easy adjust. without this or similar vga is useless but an easy fix. sure other programs have this feature too but i use pocketplus and very useful if your outdoors to turn right up.

ToggleAutoRotate

for some reason the athenaconfigapp would not toggle the auto roate correctly so i wrote a little script to make it do just that. If you don't have mortscript then use the cab file if you have mortscript then use the zip file and put the files where ever you like. I have test it on sogarth's rom only. enjoy
SideNote: if you are using the zip file the first time you run the script it will tell you its enabling it wether its already enabled or not.

thats because it does not have the right drivers.
yes... I need GSensor.dll, GSensorSetting.exe GsensorSetting.lnk, HTCSensorSDK.dll, HTCSensorService.dll and HTCSensorServiceAthena.dll....
I canĀ“t extract GSensor.dll the other roms...
I tray copy this .dll HTCSensorSDK.dll, HTCSensorService.dll and HTCSensorServiceAthena.dll and nothing
any idea?
It works on my Sogarth/Irus Base ROM beautifully, although I'm not sure if I ever want to turn it on. Perhaps only when I want to use my Bubble Level program (if only I can fix the mixing slop measurement problem there first).
Thanks Irus for this fix. Now the ROM is one more step towards perfection.

Yep, as I continue to tweak this ROM, it is getting better by the days. I really do not care too much about the IE button lighting up because the button works. I would love to dive into cooking my own, however I don't have the time right now to learn. So I am tweaking without cooking.

I agree totally that the Sogarth/Irus ROM is now the best Rom on Athena.
My Bubble Level has the measurement shown now. Just installed v1.02 and that fixed it.

Of course we should not expect that twork on any ROM . This onlyfor those cooked ROM work auto rotate sensor drivers, such as the Sogarth base ROM, sogarth vanilla, ap4, ap5, etc.

Anyone with a WM6.5 Build 23045?

I've just installed build 23045 on my Polaris. It's a lot faster and nicer to use than the earlier builds.
Anyone working on this build for the Iolite?
Cheers!
I have already built one wwe and one greek. I just haven't test the wwe version because I use the greek version. But if you want to test I can upload the wwe version here.
Edit:
Oups, sorry for that I confused the versions. I haven't build yet 23045. I have 23409.
I didn't have much time to search and find dpi96 resolution files for that version.
no worries. If you do get your hands on it though I would be happy to test it for you
Thanks
The dpi96 files for 23047(newest) are out, I've prepared my kitchen, only needs to recmod some modules.
Soon maybe I'll have a link for you.
nice! I'd be happy to test it out

thanks dancer!
I installed it last night. The scrolling etc. is a lot smoother but I noticed a couple of "bugs".
- The background light seems to have a life all of it's own
it keeps trying to adjust the background light by mostly turning itself off. I disabled the automatic adjusting and set it manually but this doesn't seem to have any effect.
- The screen I get when turning it off is in Greek
- The RSS app crashed the whole screen when I was closing a channel
Again, thanks for the upload. I'll report anything else I find.
Cheers!
For the screen light, you must configure g-light(automatic change lightness depended on light sensor), you can find it in programs.
For the greek screen I don't know, but it's strange cause, I choose english when I built the rom and is supposed that didn't used any greek language file.
I don't use RSS, but I think that will be a general fault for this build and must exist and in greek rom that I'm using. I'll test it.
EDIT:
No, RSS works fine for me. I don't now what goes wrong, cause the english rom is identical with the greek, I'm using(I didn't change anything exept language).
WM6.5 Build 23045 0407 ?
Has anybody a WM6.5 Build 23045 GER?

I've turned off g-light. It's better than before but the BG light still seems to adjust itself ocassionally.
I've had the screen freeze on me a couple of times now - it seems unrelated to RSS. The screen does sometimes pause for a couple of seconds - not sure why - I haven't been able to reproduce it successfully.
I can live with the Greek shutdown screen - if I slide the top entry it shuts down for me and that's all I really need
Now I understand, you mean the slide2shutdown program(opens when press and hold the power button). You can change the language, just search in the forum for its thread and you will find how. English and francais languages included in Program Files\Slide2Shutdown\Lang folder.

Thanks dancer! Found it in the forums
Any chance of getting something like the MegaLite ROM with one of these newer builds? I liked the HTC Today screen and the other functionality.
I'm finding it difficult to warm up to the standard WM 6.5 Today screen ....there's something clumsy about it on a small display.
Cheers!
I have 23047 MegaLite rom but I didn't test it. I use a greek rom now and I don't wanna flash the device. If you want I can post a link here.

After installing I was getting a "pop up" XML error in the middle of the screen which I couldn't get rid of so I downgraded to a earlier ROM again.
I don't really know enough about all this to try to troubleshoot myself so I will just wait for the next version.
I had this problem sometimes. If I find enough time for flash and test, I will post a working link.

have try your ROM, here is some review:
1. the background image is too abstract, looks too complicated for me
2. Have SOD once this morning
3. The 3g dialer has bug, not working perfect, sometimes the number is not displayed, others is the search feature is not usable because i can't see the number
4. opera 9.5 is not good, opera 10 is out there and also ucweb is only 6.3 the ucweb 7 is out also
5. no office is good option
6. the default theme for wm 6.5 is not good, the scrollbar is too large, has replace it with livven themes
7. the softkey font is too large (even "Contacts" not showing full), so we can see what is write on the softkey, please make it smaller
8. ezinput 1.5 is good for hardware keypad, but the t9 is somewhat too complicated, benn using d_train 16 key (also ez 1.5 just with different button image) is better, almost start with ABC all the time except in sms (which is t9 by default) don't try to use ex1,5 default ABC, it will make hardware keyboard not working properly
9. it is slow on startup
10. don't know whats wrong, everytime i restart the device, always auto launch CommManager, so i have to close it everytime. this is annoying.
ok that's for now. will switch back to Rataplan 28205 or d_train insomnia for stable 3g dialer.
anyway, keep working. thanks for the great ROM.

Just Google Touch Tools or G Rotator and you can add landscape to any app with either one of these apps.
