Is there a way to stop my screen from rotating when opening the keyboard for some apps like market and what not.
I've tried DroidSans Tweak Tools and Lite works but doesnt have that option and Full force closes.
Any other apps or ideas?

is there not a way to make the browser auto rotate with the new 1.5 update? i looked in browser settings and its not there anymore. its pretty annoying that the browser wont rotate now when the screen is closed
everything except the home screen rotates on JF1.5
once you enable rotation on your main settings, i believe it'll do it for browser automatically
[settings] - [sound & display] - orientation

ok cool thanks it works now. but my home screen auto rotates too, and everyone says that in 1.5 it doesnt rotate. is it because i previously had the droidsans tweak app installed and had auto rotate enabled? i no longer have the app installed but probably never disabled autorotate within the app before i uninstalled it.
either way, im glad my homescreen rotates with 1.5
Is anyone else having problems with wallpaper on Launcher Pro? Using the default launcher, the wallpaper scales down to the size I set. Launcher Pro keeps it HUGE and cannot be adjusted no matter what the resolution is.
Am I doing something wrong?
I have the same problem, it happens basically with any launcher that is non stock. theres apps that can fix the problem, but seems like a quirk that we're stuck with

So I was having the same problem and figured out what causes it, and a way to generally avoid it.
what seems to be causing it: Allowing home screen rotation. It appears that as soon as you rotate, Launcher pro resizes the wp to that pixelated mess, and will not revert it back once returning to portrait. I've had it happen also while going to the home screen while having the browser in landscape
to prevent: from home screen click menu / preferences / behavior settings / -> and make sure "enable auto rotation" is unchecked. (don't worry you can still rotate in apps by activating the rotation setting in the notification bar, unchecking that box just prevents the home screen rotation)
to fix your current messed up wallpaper: click menu / settings / applications / manage applications / -> click launcher pro / click clear defaults.
this will allow you to activate touchwiz again. So hit the home screen button and select TW to complete that action. after it's done try setting your wp again. Go ahead and reset launcher pro as your default now and your wp should still look good. You should now be able to crop new wp's and have them look fine too.
you shouldnt have to do this again
all set!
That did the trick. Thanks!
I tried that but it didn't work on my evo 3d
there is another work around
open the pic you want to use
rotate your phone to landscape mode
set your wallpaper using the landscape square, not the narrow one. Let it finish.
rotate your phone back to normal
your WP should now not be that pixelated mess
I am using a tablet so it is not convenient to use some of the games and apps in portrait mode.I wish to force lock the screen orientation of certain apps only.Is there an app which have this feature?
standard android system would not let you do that
I have an e10i and I face a problem. I think my orientation sensor doesn't work. Does anyone have any idea how to check if it's functional or how to fix it ?
I think your should enable option 'Auto rotate screen' in Settings - Display at first. Then you may run some apps to check if 'Auto rotate screen' works fine. For example, you may open web browser and then rotate your device to see if the screen will rotate automatically.
For your reference.
Does anyone know how to force stop an app using the gestures controls on OOS? Is it even possible?
On some ROMs, if you are using buttons for navigation, you can always go into developer options and enable the "hold back button to kill." Doing this will Force Stop the application you're currently using. I'm not sure if OOS supports this natively, but there are also apps on the playstore that do this, however, none that I can find are for gestures.
The only other way I know how to do so is by either long pressing the app and going into the app info or getting to the app info through the system settings and force closing from there.
PS. I know you can swipe the apps from the recent apps menu but that doesn't force stop an app.
