Hey everybody,
I'm running NFSFAN's latest ROM for my Bell Touch Pro and auto rotation on Manila (and everything else) seems to be working just fine EXCEPT that after I use my dialer, it stops working.
Now, I can soft reset the phone and everything works as it should. I can also open another program (like slingplayer or tomtom) and autorotation kicks in again. When I exit out of that program autorotation on manila also kicks back in.
I tried enabling autorotation on the dialer and that works until I use the dialer to make a call. Then it stops working on that program as well.
Any ideas would be awesome.
thanks

I'm guessing it's because you are using the Tachi dialer which doesn't support landscape and just messes up and switches back to portrait.
The stock WM dialer will let you use auto rotation.

Thanks dwizzy. That doesn't seem right to me though. The dialer actually does switch to landscape (the keypad disappears and is replaced just by call history) just fine. It's like only after I make a call that the auto-rotation stops working.

How do I make this feature go away when in landscape mode and I am using the slider? Help!!!
Ummm, hit the keyboard icon right below the onscreen keyboard?
I want it to permanently stay down unless I tell it to pop up. It shouldn't pop up if the slider is out.
null keyboard. should solve the problem (i had it installed on my treo, and i think it should work fine on the TP)

NullKB
While NullKB is the best on-screen keyboard fix I have seen, it's also the ONLY fix I have seen. I have been using it since I had the Sprint HTC Mogul. After installing on The Touch Pro, it tends to keep the KB at bay inconsistently. I am not sure if it stops working automatically upon soft reset but I wish it would control this issue unless otherwise directed.
download 'Advanced Configuration Tool'
Then in the Input section Disable 'auto deploy SIP'

I have never seen that option in Advanced Config.
I will check today to confirm.
I hate touching my phone while sharing internet, They always get cranky and it turns off for some reason.
Null keyboard works. Yay 4 Jugs rom has it built in.
I think he had a newer version then mine. Mine would just load a white box and stay up, His loads the box for a moment, then never comes back. But the bar will come up when its trying to deploy the keyboard.
This one has pissed me off for ages too. Just another one of those things Microsoft should have fixed several versions ago.
I dont think its nessarly their thing.
The dev's just are not writing something in to the phone to tell it to not put the keyboard up when you dont want it.
I dont think its a windows mobile thing at all.
Just remember, what devs think and what actuall users think are tottaly different.
We like no irritations unless we ask for them. They are thinking "well this would be good if the keyboard poped up here right now"
The other problem though with the OSK is that as soon as you bring it up, by accident, or purpose, it will pop up for everything after that. That is the one that bugs me the most.

Okay, I checked advanced config, and the option is there, i set it to disabled. Haven't tested it yet.
Working out another issue with standby at the moment.
Sarinhighwind,
Please let us know if the advanced config changed, worked. The on screen keyboard on my Sprint TP, pops up when I go into landscape mode, and then when I start to type using the slider key pad it disappears.
I don't want it to pop up at all.
Thanks.

Just checked, I forgot to earlier.
It does NOT work.
Like a lot of Advanced config features do not at the moment.
I used AC 3.3
The latest as I know of. Or maybe its 3.2 Whatever it was a few days ago when the TP came out.
This one has annoyed me as well... Using AC 3.2 it works well for me, the SKB does not deploy but it required a soft reset before it would work...
I use version 3.3 and it works fine for me. No more keyboard pop up here.
As above. YES you must do a soft reset before it works.
i see u guys arent recommending advanced config on the htc touch pro cdma .. is there one currently that is better... to change startup pick.. change soft key buttons....change order of tabs on tf3d
Another version of this question: how do I make the pop-up icon appear on every screen? (It does not appear on the today screen, for example).
you would use Diamond Tweak
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip]"TurnOffAutoDeploy"=dword:00000001
If you make this entry into the reg it turns it off most of the time, in opera doesn't work
I know this is an old topic but I was looking for a solution for my Verizon XV6850 Touch Pro and Diamond Tweak worked for me (on SSK's 2.1.1 rom) but it's the same thing your gonna have to soft reset.
This was most annoying for me because it would pop up when making calender appointments for drop down menus. If you have a drop down why do you need to type in the time???
Anyway it worked like a charm just go down to keyboard (popup) and select disable and you'll be set

Is there a REG Tweak that tells it to always start in 123 mode? My keyboard is stuck in 123 mode and won't switch when I press the abc button on the screen keyboard...
Hey, guys! I've just been wondering if any of you other guys have been getting the same odd behavior as me with the latest stock ATT FUZE ROM.
It deals with the phone display switching between portrait and landscape orientation when you flip out the keyboard. For some reason, the Windows taskbar appears every time I flick out the keyboard to type something while using full screen apps such as YouTube. It irritates me because all the other ROMs I've tried don't exhibit this issue. I can make it disappear by tapping the Start menu and exiting it, but having to do that every time I flick the keyboard out and flicking it back in is quite annoying. I was wondering if any of you know how I could disable this behavior.
It appears that any orientation switching without flicking out the keyboard (ex. Opera rotating using the accelerometer) doesn't make the taskbar pop out, but switching between portrait and landscape with the keyboard always triggers the taskbar to pop out in full screen apps. Again, it's easy enough to just tap the Start menu and exit out again to make the taskbar disappear, but I would LOVE to just have it not appear altogether, like all the other builds of WM that I've been using.
Anyone out there that can duplicate the issue I'm having? Furthermorem anyone know how I can remove the behavior?
I have the Touch Pro dialer working on my 21854 build of WM6.5 (Rhodium port). However, when I use the dpad to go down the list of contacts, the green highlighter goes down the list about three or four places and then begins to move the names instead of scrolling through them. Everything else works in both landscape and portrait modes. Has anyone dealt with this? If so, how?
Alright, I found that this is an issue using older dialers on 6.5. I guess the question is do you hack the dialer or hack the OS?
i use my phone quite a lot for navigation. i have igo 8.3 installed on it. i use it in landscape. when i receive a call the incoming call screen appears in portrait and it's a little bit hard to see who's calling. is there a solution for that? i mean to be able to turn the incoming call screen to landscape automatically?
You can rotate everything on the HD2.

thanks. i give it a try.
l3onard just use BSB Tweaks forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=589305 and you can manage what programs you want to be landscape and what programs you want to just be portrait or have it all programs portrait and landscape. i hope this help
i have it set to auto rotate in the settings and all my apps rotate but the home screen wont? its just stuck in landscape... i was on a version of TNT and it was not working so i thought maybe a fresh start would help and just flashed vegan tab 5.1 and i have the same issue? the rotate is working within the apps i open so i know its not a hardware issue... anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

What home launcher are you using? I have Launcher Pro Plus and there's an option in preferences to rotate the home screen. Could this be your issue?

I have tried both launcher pro and stock launcher and I know what option you are talking about though and have tried it both on and off and nothing works...
today i went home for lunch and tried some other ways to fix this and came up with nothing... i tried going into titanium and wiping data for the launcher and that didnt work, then i tried installing launcher pro and going that rought and that didnt work... i still cant rotate the home screen... but i can still rotate no problem in any app i open... ?

i dont think its a ROM issue... i have the same setup on my tablet as my wife and for some reason mine works fine but for her i cant get the rotate to work on the homescreen... and like i said earlier, i have tried the auto rotate option on and off and it wont fix it. rotate works fine within an app, just not the home screen. the problem started when she was on a TNT ROM and so i wiped everything and installed Vegan and same problem is there... not sure what it can be since the rotate works fine for the apps?
Unfortunately, I am having the exact same problem. Any application will rotate just fine, but when I am outside of any application, the display is only in landscape format. I too have tried the system display settings and made sure it is set to auto rotate.
I am using the latest VegaN build.
If you find anythign, please share. Thanks
I am having the same problem too. Apps can rotate, but home screen stuck in landscape. Wiped data and wipe cache does not help.
I'm just a complete novice and I don't really understand what I'm saying (and I don't even have my G tab yet) but I've read of so many weird problems being fixed by partioning the internal SD card that I thought I'd mention it.
Is the stock home screen designed to rotate? I updated to 3588 when I first got mine and my home screen won't rotate anymore. I swear it was rotating on the previous version. I am using classic home nothing insaled, did a factory reset on 1.1.3588.
Edit: apps andsettings page rotate normally
There were two auto rotate options... One in settings, and one in launcher preferences... Did you check both?
How do you get to launcher preferences? Again, I am using fully stock TnT.
For launcher pro it's menu, preferences... Then behavior I think....
I think my gtab had some stuffinstalled out of the box, maybe it was a returned item. First it had angry birds and kindle, I thoughtthese were just included or something. Maybeit had a launcher too. I did a fctoryreset after I updated to prep for custom roms, so whatever was there is gone now. I just thought it was stock before. Guess not.
So what I am getting at is, do the stock viewsonic TnT home screens do rotate?
Sorry, I missed the word "stock" before TnT in your post. Sorry if I confused the situation.
I'm not sure if it rotates or not. My gtab was powered on for exactly 3 minutes before I rooted it and flashed vegan....
Also having this issue where the apps and settings rotate but the home screen does not. Running Vegan 5.1 Beta with the default launcher.
anxiously.
I'm waiting for a good answer. Same prob.
Stock home screen does NOT autorotate.
So vegan 5.1 not suppose to auto rotate home page?? That doesnt sound right
Home Screen Won't Rotate
Chime in to say my stock TNT does the same thing. It's stuck in Landscape but the apps rotate just fine.
