Have a look at these two apps. It's the only way to get somewhat funtional accelerometer based rotation as far as I know.

I tried the apps but I uninstalled them cause they don't work on the b7610 I believe the samsung sdk used is not compatible with our device...

i found a solution to this:

grab this updated HTCSensor.dll

and copy it into your windows folder

this will make a lot of accelerometer apps work with your omnia pro - i tried a lot of games and they seem to be working now

now get this tool and install it (needs ms framework 3.5 to work)

install and run it, minimze to background and voila you have an autorotating screen ;)

you can also find the gyrator.exe and copy a link to it to you windows autostart so it will start everytime you boot up your omnia pro

only negative aspect: when running the camera application the screen will also flip, which makes the camera useless - so you obviously have to close the program before taking pictures/videos

there is an option to exclude certain apps from flipping in gyrator but i havent found out what to add in order to deactive flipping for the camera mode

maybe someone could have a look into this ... the omnia pro is my first "modern" phone and i am just looking into it for 3 days... dunno where to find the needed strings in registry yet.

Rotating camera it's a very annoying issue. I've tried to discover the window class of the camera but it's very difficult cause the app autocloses itself everytime I launch any other app...Can someone help discovering the window class of the camera? ;)

on the gyrator website there is a list of the applications and their associated classes. Did this solve it?

I tried similar application for HTC(with HTCSensor.dll). Name is ChangeScreen v2.78  and you can download from XDA. App is better because you can set what is Enable for rotation, so there are no collisions with other applications :-)

Hi,

both apps doesn't seem to work very well on my B7610. It rotates the screen in oposite direction so it is of no use! (i had to read the text on the screen upside down.....)

Can I solve this 'little' problem easily? I've tried Gyrator and Changescreen. In my opinion ChangScreen has better features, if it works correctly.......

I have the same problem (opposite direction of rotation). :)

But after second calibration and warm boot. It works like a charm. :)

I don't know what why and how. :)

ChangeScreen works best in my opinion on the B7610.

But don't enable the option to turn of the device when face down, since it doesn't seem to work (you will need to keep the device face down else it always get turned off. The option vibrate on change orientation doesn't seem to work.

ok i installed ChangeScreen2.78.

when adding the exception is anyone able to get the media player to function it is supposed to be before enabling the changescreen?

meaning that before i on the media player, when i turn it sideway, it will change to a flipping type of album mode.

but when i use changescreen, if i turn it sideway, the list will also turn with it. it does not show the flipping mode.

the exception name for the media player is "touchplayer"

So why you added to exceptions list when "touchplayer" working without ChangeScreen???? Just remove from list and work fine...

Only programs in exception list are rotate, other are ignore.

Of course you have to check only first checkbox as default!

hmm... isnt it supposed to be that the programs in the list are ignored cos they themselves have the ability to rotate without the ChangeScreen?

okay.. i remove it from the exception list. but the same thing occurs.

the media player itself got a special mode when u turn it sideways. when u turn ur phone sideways, it is activated and ur screen will show ur albums and u can flip each album pic to see the other albums.

however with the ChangeScreen, this special mode is not activated. it just change from vertical mode to horizontal mode.

the media player i talking about is the samsung one. see the video at 1:15 where he change to landscape.

Yes I know what you mean it is nice effect :-)

It is strange that it doesn't work because works fine on my side.

I have WM6.5 and changeScreen v2.5 - on General tab I have enebale ONLY first portrait position and no touchplayer on exceptions list.

No special setting.

to get the touch player's special horizontal effect work nicely together with changeScreen you will need to add 'touchplayer' (without any selection box selected) and '3dtplayerlib' (without any selection box selected) in the exception list.

I found out another process is started for this effect and the name '3dtplayerlib' is displayed when using the 'Show App Names' function of ChangeScreen v2.78.

thanks for asking this question, I didn't notice this 3D effect and with change screen activated I would never have seen it )

Good question and nice solution.

Just another question.

Have you guys ever tried "asphalt4" the race game with g-sensor control supported ?

This game doesn't work with my b7610.

Thanks.
