[Q] [Help]how to turn navigon mobile navigator 7 in to landscape mode ?

Hi can anyone help me with this.
I have a T mobile HTC HD2 US. I could not turn MN7 into landscape to use.
I did some registry tweaks but didn't work. I also tried to edit NaviPanel and tried to launch MN7 in landscape mode but i failed to do so eventhouigh the display did change but it didn't rotate so it cut off half of my creen.
anyone can help me with this.
thanks so much
I know how to switch it but I have to modify it. Give me a pm....
Get the app Auto-Rotate, somewhere here on the forums
i use Navstarter for this purpose.
you have to put it in your navigon directory and run it instead of the normal exe. there you can choose in which alignment you want to start it. if you choose 90 or 270° it rotates the screen, launches mn7, and after you close it, it rotates the screen back to normal mode.

Uastring in default browser??

Any news on this?
I find it really annoying to type the useragent command to change the uastring every time I use the browser

[Q] How to switch full screen mode in Browser?

Normally, I have tabs and menu symbol at the top of the screen when using Browser. However, sometimes - I think when I close an existing tab - it switches to full screen mode and I don't know how to see my tabs again. There is not full screen switch in quick controls on the side of the screen.
How do I switch between full screen mode and tabbed mode?
Also: how do I get to my home page?
Edit: I'm talking about stock ICS browser.

[Q] Home screen landscape

Does the lte have the ability to view the home screen in landscape mode?
Not by itself. If you use an MHL adapter or the Media Link, it goes landscape, but thats it.
1) Download "rotation locker" from the Play Store
2) Open the app, when the popup menu appears HOLD DOWN on Auto
3) The app will vanish and should remain running in the background (see your notification?)
4) Landscape Rosie!
Be sure to disable for camera as it makes it a weird rotation! Mileage will vary on other apps.

Enable Freeform Mode

Hi folks,
I have a Huawei Mediapad M5 Pro with current FW (CMR-AL 19 8.0.0.111(C432) ) and I activated the freeform mode, as I was bothered by not being able to use apps in freeform mode...
To do so, I used adb.
in adb-folder open cmd:
Code:
adb devices
verify on your Mediapad M5 Pro.
then
Code:
adb shell settings put global enable_freeform_support 1
Now I can theoretically choose freeform mode when I am on the "running apps" window. However the X for closing the App and the icon for freeform are at the same place ...
Is there any easy way to (re)move the X or the freeform-icon ?
To the mods: As this clearly is not a device specific question, feel free to remove the thread ...
I hope someone can answer this issue
best wishes,
Kevin
Thanks for posting this, i didn't even know this was possible.
I gave it a shot, but my adb doesn't seem to be able to detect my M5. I enabled USB debugging on the tablet, but when i plug the usb cable, i'm only getting the usual prompt to charge/transfer files etc. Running the "abd devices" command on my pc turns up nothing. Any idea what i might be doing wrong?
Edit: managed to set it up somehow, ran into the same issue you described.
Sorry I only answer you now.
You need to connect the Tablet after enabling USB-debugging.
I am not an Expert, maybe s.o. can look into this further. I am willing to help wherever I can.
You need to:
1. turn on the tablet
2. enter the pattern/pin/password/fingerprint
3. connect it to the PC via USB
4. change the USB mode from charging to file transfer.
Alternatively, there is an option in the developer settings to allow debugging while in charging mode.

Thanks, exactly what I did just failed to mention it....
has anyone tried freeform mode, yet?
Yes I did. I have the same problem on my 8.4 inch model: The freeform and close buttons overlap, and the close button takes precedence.
However, I found an app which can launch programs in free form mode:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.farmerbb.taskbar
This works, even resizing (by dragging an edge of an app), moving and multiple apps on the screen. But once I maximize an app, I need to re-launch it via the taskbar app to get it back in windowed mode.
Unfortunately, the touch screen sometimes stops responding when I tap on the background in free form mode. I can still launch apps via Android Studio, but cannot use them. So it's OK to test apps in free form mode, but not really usable for work.
I also found Taskbar, however due to its battery drain it cannot be the solution, I think. The drain is about 5% more / hour, which I find inacceptable

what I think works better:
https://github.com/farmerbb/Launcher3-Freeform
I miss, however, the flexibility of Nova (normal launcher3 has at least some features ...) Can freeform functionality be introduced into Launcher3 (which is Open Source) by merging the projects? :-/

Don't know if it exists on the standard variants, but can you look if you are able to activate Desktop Mode via QuickSettings. It's a Desktop like laucher mode allowing to open apps in free-form mode out of the box.

I have the pro.
Desktop mode is more or less useless, imho.
I'd love to have both. And Microsoft Office does not support the free form mode in a good way in Desktop Mode (which it does with Taskbar for example). Launcher3 forked into one supporting free form mode, however I don't know how to reintegrate it into source code, so that everything works fine... ( https://github.com/farmerbb/Launcher3-Freeform). I think the idea of desktop mode is good, but not thought through, yet. I hope that improvements are on their way....

agree, I used to have an asus transformer book T100 with Windows 10 on it and found the screen to be OK size, but this on desktop mode is useless, not all are resizable, and besides no cut and paste stuff like what you would use desktop mode for (side by side copy and paste images from Web browser). WPS office supports it, and I will use that since I can't be asked to pay for Ms office.
I have the same issue. The freeform icon is overlapped with the close icon so I can not hit it.
