Orientation lock app for Windows Phone 7

Orientation Lock app for Windows Phone 7
Orientation Lock for Windows Phone 7

 

Here is the first orientation lock application for Windows Phone 7! Basically, it locks your device screen orientation (do you remember – this function was built-in on your old Windows Mobile phone :)) by setting the accelerometer to power state D4, then back to D0 to revive it.
This project is created using DllImport:

DllImportCaller.lib.StringIntIntCall(“coredll”, “SetDevicePower”, “ACC1:”, 1, (int)Phone.Network.WiFi.PowerState.D0);

The app is very simple and easy to use, it’s already tested on some devices like HTC HD7, Nokia Lumia 800, Samsung Focus and Omnia 7. Also, we tested it and it works perfect on the HTC HD2 with various Windows Phone 7.5 ROM’s.

Anyway, some  HTC devices detects the accelerometer sensor as active, even when it isn’t, to fix this you need to toggling the button back and forth to get it working.

New multitouch driver for HTC HD2 running Windows Phone 7

HTC HD2 Windows Phone 7
HTC HD2 Windows Phone 7

 

If you are using HTC HD2 with Windows Phone 7, may be you already know about the multitouch “problem” (in example in IE when you are trying to zoom something, you need to touch the screen with two fingers at the same time to get the pinch-to-zoom working, also all games that uses multitouch cannot be played)…

And here comes the new modded multitouch driver for HTC HD2 from the XDA member AnDim:

“I have fixed some bugs in the original HTC touch driver. Multitouch is working good now (tested by xboxmod), but there are yet some difference with other native WP7 drivers. It will be fixed soon.”

Note: if you want to use just the driver itself, you need to re-build a new ROM with the dll inside.

The good news are that the multitouch driver is already included in some WP7 ROM’s that you can use:

  • XBmod-Yuki Rom V2.10 for HTC HD2
  • [v4] CTRLPDA FSM HD2 Mango ROM
  • HD2O© v1.25 WP7 7740 FULLY UNLOCKED
  • 23.Langs HD2 Pdaimatejam Rom Wp7.5 mango 7740 v5
