A stock HOX? You can't rotate the home screen by default in Sense. You need an app like Rotation Locker to force Sense to rotate. Are you having issues in any apps?

I can't rotate anyscreen. ex. gallery, browser. I try Rotation Locker. when ı chose landscape ı work, but chose auto only portrait mode can use. ı read somethings about this issue forums. this is issue maybe

You cant rotate anything? Maybe you just clicked auto-rotate off by accident. Go to settings, displays and gestures and see if auto-rotate is on

Rotation mod

I noticed that in froyo you are able to rotate your phone both waya to get landscape but in 2.1 your limited to only turning your phone to the left.
How can we mod 2.1 to allow rotation both ways?
Most 2.1 ROOTED roms have this. Open up Settings>Sound & Display> Orientation.

Yes but screen only rotates one way. I want it to rotate both ways
CM 5.0.7-DS lets you go all four ways!
What about the other way around? I'm on 2.2 and I don't want it to change orientation if I rotate it the other way.

I'd like to be able to change the rotation trigger angle.
Quite often I find it rotates prematurely, when I'm not trying to rotate it...
Any ideas?
Id also like a less jarring rotate like there was in 1.5-6.
Hopefully its possible.

How to setup/lock gNote to landscape mode?

Hello!
So how can I lock gNote to landscape mode?
With Dell Streak I was used Orientation Lock Widget, with gNote it not work... :
(I use LauncherPro)
Also it would be nice to have the lock screen also in landscape mode...
Thanks!
Ok, I answer to myself. The Widget Locker solve the lock screen"problem".
I also calibrate the screen "upside down" so now the gNote stays landscape easily.
And yes, it´s not the best solution but it works...
I wanted to do some web browsing in landscape the other day while laying in bed and I decided to lock it in landscape, only to discover that it's impossible. I held the phone sideways, waited for the screen to rotate, pulled down the notification bar, and unticked the auto-rotate button. The screen quickly rotated back to portrait just before turning off auto-rotate! So I had to be careful of my orientation while I browsed the web.
I guess this is because they were too lazy to develop landscape homescreen functionality, so they tied up all loose ends that would lead to it.
I use orientation control. It works pretty well. You can also set it to go back to auto when you are done reading and the screen shuts off.

Thank you very much! orientation control seems to work great! wohoo!
Does orientation control also let you put the homescreen into landscape?
I'm currently using dell streak and having landscape for a device this big is one of the best things about it.
I use nova launcher and it has an option in the settings

Rotation Locker works well, you can force "service" mode so it runs in the background and forces everything to landscape, and its free.

making the sidekick 4g an exclusively landscape phone- not avg questions

what's up everyone, put smooth maximus on my sidekick about a week ago and it's been treating me great.
i've been interested in making the phone ONLY use landscape mode, which is possible through the "orientation control" app for our devices. only thing that annoys me about using this apk is that the lockscreen will still fall into portrait mode, and every time you slide the screen up to access the keyboard the screen 'reloads' itself.
i'm a little bit particular with the way my phone runs, and i'm wondering if there is any way to mod the phone to prevent it from reloading the screen when it slides open and whether it is possible to force the lockscreen into portrait.
thanks in advance for the help guys

are you saying that it wont open in landscape even when your holding it that way?
no, it will open in landscape. but the lockscreen is never disabled from portrait mode, and whenever the screen is slid up (even when already in landscape mode) the screen will blink for a second and seemingly reload whatever i'm doing on the phone.

That's odd, iv never had that happen with the stock lockscreen, only with lockscreen replacement apps.

Go into settings and enable auto rotation after you have enabled landscape mode lock with Orientation Control.
That will resolve the issue.
This question has been answered previously. Try reading next time.

uhhhh, did you read my post? don't tell me to "try reading" when you don't have a grasp of what i'm asking. when did i say anything about not understanding how to use orientation control? i'm asking questions about the lockscreen and about the phone doing this reloading when the keyboard is opened. step off the high horse and learn to read before pompously telling others to...

well this phone was made to be nearly always used in landscape.
Android forces the phone the reload the screen resources with a hinge change. This cannot be changed. Additionally, this can be a source of memory leaks if you write quick and dirty code with globals...
I don't know of any version or mod of the Android OS that does not refresh the screen with a hinge change.
This refresh happens everytime you open and close your device. You only notice it on the lockscreen.

How to lock portrait mode?

I have an HOX AT&T. When I turn off Auto-Rotate while in portrait mode, it always switches to landscape mode. Is there a way to lock it into portrait mode?
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
When I turn auto rotate off in landscape mode it forces portrait mode on everything and when I lock it in portrait it locks it in portrait. I am on the AT&T RUU_Evita_UL_Cingular_US-1.82.502 right now. Which version are you running right now?
Just to be clear landscape is wider than taller and portrait is taller than wider.

+1. This app is awesome. You can also use it to force your home screen into landscape if you so desire.

Right. If you long press "Auto" it will run a background service that will force rotation based on the sensor (forcing meaning it will force any apps that don't want to rotate to do so anyway).

The way you describe is how I hoped my phone would work. This is how my Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus works, and I love it. But unfortunately, my HTC behaves oddly.
As for my version number, i couldnt find any version number like yours. Mine is just a plain old AT&T HTC One X, straight out of the box and unmodified.

Thanks for the suggestion. I've tried this app, and it's not helping. It's just a shortcut for the "Auto-rotate screen" setting, which seems to be defective.
The problem I'm seeing is that whenever I turn OFF auto-rotate, the screen switches to landscape mode and stays in landscape no matter what the screen orientation is. When auto-rotate is ON, there are no issues -- the screen orientation adjusts based on which way I hold the phone as expected.
I've run G-Sensor Calibration in Settings, but to no avail.
I wonder if anyone else is having this issue.
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
Ahhhh, mystery solved!! It looks like there's an additional "Auto rotate screen" option under the Accessibility menu in Settings. Somehow I had that turned on. And this was screwing with the auto rotate setting under the Display & Gestures menu.
Once I turned it off under the Accessibility menu, all works perfectly now, including the Rotate Locker app.
Thanks.

How can in stop lockscreen from auto rotating?

Hello, i am on cm 10.1 on a razr xt925
And i want to stop the lockscreen from auto rotating.
I have auto rotate checked under display so that i am able to rotate screen when i am on the browser and on facebook and stuff.
But the lockscreen rotates aswell, i want it to stop. The lockscreen always gets all crazy when unlocking when i have my phone tilted to its side or laydled flat.
Its really annoying and it takes me longer to unlock the phone.
I read somewhere that there is an app for this. But i would like to avoid this since i read that it is ram hungry and i would have to set it on boot every time.
I was thinking maybe editing something inside build prop.
I tried one code and wasnt able to get it working.
I want to force stop the lockscreen rotation,while maintaining rotation everywhere else.
Anybody know how i can achive this?
Thanks in advance.
Btw cm10.1 is great.
Bugs are still present but they are getting fixed. Just saying if anybody wants to try it out.

Sorry! I just had a quick look on your question..
I'll try to figure it out because I have CM10.1 on older phone and I never noticed lock screen rotation anoyance..
For now try this:
Menu -> Settings -> CyanogenMod settings -> Display -> Rotate 180 degrees - This will disable the "upside-down" rotation
