I pinch the screen to view all the windows that are open. I have auto rotate turned off yet the windows screen can be rotated. Is it possible to disable this? It's very annoying. Landscape only display is also turned off.

Is there a way to disable the rotate on the Touch Pro? My annoyance is that some times I take pictures with the phone in landscape..... and when I view the pictures, the phone would auto rotate the screen making unviewable
I see a solution with using different picture viewer. I use Resco,because it has much more functionalities than builtin viewer. I want to disable autorotation while keyboard is slided out. Any hack for this?
As the subject said, the rotation (gyro) on the GT7+ is very sensitive. Many times I just titled the screen slightly and the screen rotates.
Can't you just turn off rotation in the quick task settings when you open the notification slider? Is that good enough for your uses?

I can, but I do use the rotation feature. I.e. when browsing the web. It get annoying when I read a PDF, the screen rotates, so I have to rotate it back, turn rotation off, keep reading, click on a web link, rotate, doesn't work, turn on rotation, etc...etc...
I also have an iPad 2 and the rotation is not as sensitive.
Very great app. I hate Auto-Rotate mode because it always triggered at the wrong moment! It's really help me to customize my Android. I put fixed landscape mode for 90% of my normal and system apps (Apex Launcher, Opera Mobile, Polaris Office etc). Smart Rotator starts on device boot and always control your apps rotate mode. You can choose Auto-Rotate, Portrait Fixed or Landscape Fixed for separate apps. Smart Rotator completely changed my usual "portrait" use of Galaxy Note. Now I always hold my device at landscape mode and it become more comfortable to use. Watching videos, web browsing and maps are now extremely handy. I only left portrait mode for Astro Player and some games.

I like Ultimate Rotation Control it allows me to set the orientation on the fly. Eg,often if I'm using the phone lying down in bed, I want to lock the orientation differently to if I'm sitting upright.
Also, you can set the orientation upside down so that the capacitative buttons are at the top and out of the way for some apps.
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.
Not working for me on pictures. Am I missing a setting. Auto rotate is turned on
