Go to your browser and type "about:debug" without the quotes and press enter. Then press your menu button and go to settings. Scroll all the way down and enable it, then load up any page and rotate your screen.

It's decent. Nice to know. Thanks!

The rotation animation:
It went *okay*....;-)
What interests me more is that apparently, we've had a built-in screen-capture function that wasn't enabled by default. (It works perfectly, FYI, in the same settings menu.)

haha really? Man..I wonder what else is in there. I just went there to see if I could disable the text reflow. I hate that reflow with a passion!

Didnt know this either but that rotation sucks. It over rotates then realigns itself.

Motorola phones with the Gingerbread update do it correctly (ie Photon 4G, Droid X, etc).

Did you know, "tracing" on stock keyboard!

If you go to the keyboard settings you can turn on tracing on the stock htc keyboard. You can choose the trace colors as well.
ps, didnt see this posted anywhere else. if it was, my bad, least its not in the dev section ;p
whoa, you would think they would have mentioned this.
swype was being crappy for me, and shapewriter doesnt fill up the whole screen.
nice find!
Swype wasn't working well for me, this is.
oh wow!. good find!
This was introduced on the Sensation, and I look forward to having it as an option.

I find swype to be way more responsive.

Facial Recognition locking app

I found this app in the Samsung GS2 forum.
From what I understand this app is also available through the android market. I am not taking credit in anyway for the development of this app just liked it and decided to post it here for us too use.

Thanks for sharing, this is great. But one gripe, it puts an icon in the notification bar and of you drop it down and select it, it takes you to the setting so anyone can change the settings.

If you turn off the lock notification, you cant launch the app from the pulldown.

Thank you, that works! Also in the setting you can check off the app also so if you try opening the app itself, it is also protected..I should have thought of that lol.

It works its just that my brother and mom can get in with no problem. Haha I'll test it out on some friends to see if its worth keeping.
thanks alot cool app works great on my 3vo
I have tried it with a few friends it kept them out. Not saying its perfect but you can also try raising the security level to high. Just makes sure you take a variety of test pics in different lighting for the best results

I found a flaw though. On sense 3.0 if the application you have locked is on your lock screen, it somehow opens the app anyways, therefore this app is useless.

Are you sure the app was running? I just tried my lockscreen and it locked it for me. Make sure you have the notification on and that the icon is in your notification bar, so can make sure the app is running. Something else you can try, there is a setting that allows you change whether or not you have to constantly unlock it or unlock one app and it stays unlocked

you can turn the setting off where it stops prompting to Face Rec every time you turn off the screen and open the app.
I cant wait for it to be used in conjunction with the lockscreen/unlocking the phone...
It makes me feel like im somebody off of mission impossible or something...

I figured out a workaround...
Install "Agile Lock" (free on Market, and a Sense 3.0 lockscreen that's meant for AOSP ROMS normally) https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nanoha.SenseScreen
and set the app to activate when used...
Profit.
R WE NOT PHONES?!?

I set this to lock golauncher, which works well as phone wont launch after unlocking it until face verified. UNLESS, you slide an app to the lockring, then it bypasses it and I think crashes visidon, becuse i then have to open the app and back out to make it work again. Would be a sweet app if this was fixed.

Suggestion: Alternate uses for the 3D Switch

No doubt it would require full root access, but it'd be very useful if the 3D Switch had a function outside of camera mode. One thought I had would be as a silent/vibrate toggle as found on the iphone. But that's a far cry from all the potential uses for it.

I was thinking maybe the camera button could be used for screenshots? That would be pretty awesome.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
maybe autobrightness and a user defined level would be sweet. also Setting up the camera button to do other things especially because its a dual stage button! we could have perform 2 seperate functions!
Any updates on this? Just got the 3d and I have miui running. The switch is now literally pointless. Any way we could make it a vibrate/sound toggle? Wifi on/off switch? Customizable switch? I just want all of my buttons to have a point in being a button.
Would it be possible to do with one of those Remap button apps?

Stand Alone Landscape Rosie?

Has anyone seen a standalone landscape Rosie mod? I have seen it in a couple of roms.
I am not ready to HTC unlock, I want to make sure I am not going to have any hardware issues, so I am waiting for a little bit before unlocking.
If there isn't a standalone mod I might try just pulling the Rosie.apk from one of the roms and putting it in place with root explorer. Has anyone tried that, and is it only the Rosie I need to pull or are there other files?
Thanks

If your not rooted, then go to the market and download a app called rotation locker. When you open the app longpress auto rotate. You will then have landscape and portrait Rosie.

I just pulled a rosie.apk from a ROM that had it and put it in the /system/app folder. I renamed my rosie.apk first though just in case. I also changed the permissions of the new one to rw-r-r. Worked like a charm.

Thank you, that app also supports landscape dialer. I have been looking for that forever. Don't like car dock mode. Tried every rom on my OG Evo and it was right there in Play Store. I feel really dumb now but thanks again.

That rotation locker is pretty nifty! I just wish it supported "upside down" landscape where the charger port is on top.... when using it plugged in + kickstand, I have to keep the charger port on top
This app locks it in landscape. I can't get it to auto switch. How are you all getting it to work.
Edit.."long press". Got it.

This is a horrible Idea. I just tried it and my phone became extremly unhappy. If your running Stock Odex, this won't work. Even if you delete the Rosie.Odex, your phone will stop working properly. Luckly I was able to revert it with ADB once I figured out the correct mount command.
I am guessing clone1008 was on a custom rom.
I used the Rosie from Stock with goodies 1.31
Okay Back to my rule no more screwing with my phone when I am oncall at work.

Small gripes so far

So this is my first HTC phone and for the most part I am loving it. However, there are two things that I hate. For starters, on a Phone such as the Galaxy s4 or the iPhone, I am able to view who sent me a text on the lockscreen or who sent me a text even when the phone is secured. Now on the HTC m8, I dont get to see any of that. All I see is the number of notifications above the phone app or the messaging app. Also, I hate the fact that if I go into the texting app to view a few messages but not all of them, it will then clear the icon in the notification panel as well as the indicator above the app icon itself. It really makes it super easy to forget if I had any extra text or not.
Check settings lock screen, the m7 had a lockscreen view that showed texts. Haven't got my m8 yet to see if it's still there.

Try using google handouts instead of the standard texting app
You can view text messages on the lock screen. You have to enable it in the settings.

Go to Settings, then Security and click notification settings under lockscreen. I am using Sense 6.0 on the M7 but it should be the same. I actually liked the way this was handled on Sense 5.5 better than 6.
