Program for flipping X3i screen into landscape view?

bubble_boy · 10-29-04, 01:42 AM

My mom has an Axim X30 with the Windows Mobile 2003 second edition operating system.

She is able to rotate the position of the screen into a "landscape" viewing mode.

I am so jealous!

Is there any software program I can download that will let me do this with my Axim X3i ?

Sincerely,
The Bubble Boy

Try dotpocket or Nydidot. Some people, including me had trouble with Nydidot crashing thier Ax, but dot pocket works good for me. If you use the Aximsite member discount, it's $15. I think both offer a 30 day trial, so try each of them. Warning, though, some programs don't work well with dotpocket, but most of them do.

I also use DotPocket and it works fine. Plus it comes with a remote desktop application that allows you to control Axim from your PC while in cradle. There is a multi-function screen capture utility that allows screen shots and a recorder to record screens as you go.

I just downloaded dotpocket. The first time I tried it it locked up my x3i. Now six lockups later, does anyone know what to do?

Is it installed in main memory?

I do not know. I downloaded it to the handheld and then opened it up. It has caused me to soft reset multiple times. I deleted it and still there are two dotpocket icons one with (2) and one with (3) on my screen. The handheld does not recognize that they are there. It just will not work. help Thanks

DotPocket is one of those programs that must be in main memory. The two icons appear often when installed on the SD card or CF card. Did you use the un-install program or just deleted the files?
