I've installed cm9 but all the apps look like the phone versions and if I change the dpi it looks all messed up
Is there an other option in the build.prop to make it work. Or something else I can do?
Also, I want to use samsung's keyboard and filemanager but installing them as system apps doesn't work
Thanks in advance
Regards, Coen
are you holding in portrait mode or landscape?
some tablet-compatible apps only show their tablet enhancements in landscape.
and are you sure you have cm9? cm10 runs in a "small tablet" mode, which is practically the same as phone mode, and it still uses the cm9 boot animation.

holding it in landscape doesn't fix the problem
I have this problem since I went from stock to cm9
which apps are you trying?
i have cm9 too, and both the settings and gmail apps run in the 2-pane tablet mode for me.

Hi,
It would be better to modify the orientation to portrait and then check the box above for "System Persistent". It will gray out the orientation but lock it to any orientation you selected. ADW will no longer auto-rotate, but most apps will still auto-rotate to landscape.
I’m sure it will solve the problem.
that too, good call

Whenever I open the camcorder app on this phone, the camcorder always switches to landscape. It never stays on portrait no matter which way I hold it. In the camera app, it's able to go into portrait and landscape mode. I thought it was a rom issue as I was using the royal thunder ROM when I discovered this, so I flashed the royalglacier ROM, but the problem is in this ROM as well. I've tried flashing different kernels and using the g-sensor calibration but it still doesn't work.
I don't know why but on all Sense 4.0 ROMs (like OrDroid 7.1.0 and Insert Coin Evolution 1.3) my screen goes landscape and stays like this. I checked and unchecked the landscape mode in tweaks, I checked and unchecked the screen rotation, and calibrated screen g-sensor, but nothing helped. I did perform full wipe before OrDroid and IC, but it didn't help. I don't have problems on ARHD 6.4.4, please help cause I have no idea what to do ;/ I'm gonna hit thanks button like maniac if someone helps.

Now I've noticed that the screen goes from Landscape to portrait like mad. It changes just like this. Even if I leave the phone on the table. For example it's portrait, I switch off the screen, then it comes in landscape. I unlock the phone, then it changes portrait to landscape and back like mad :/ what the hell?
The best part is, that when I revert to ARHD 6.4.4 it works flawlessly. I get landscape when I want it.

Does this still happen even after unchecking the Landscape option in tweaks?
And how exactly are you getting landscape mode with ARHD?
I meant that the screen rotates into landscape on ARHD, for example in gallery or internet browser. Yes as I wrote, it happens with landscape mode unchecked in tweaks either from shinz or baad (depends on ROM). It is really frustrating.

Your G Sensor is probably not working properly.
Where are the places you have noticed this?
ie Have you noticed this in a particular application or all apps?
Also, if this is happening with Google Chrome, I'd like to inform you that Chrome is currently not working properly in Ordroid 7.1.0
First after I've flashed OrDroid after Full Wipe there was everything ok. So I went to take a look at the Sense 4.0. I firstly checked the gallery, and when I wanted to edit photo, all the Sense went Landscape. I couldn't change the Landscape to portrait by any chance so I've rebooted the device. After that, the system loaded up, the sense. 4 seconds and bam again. So I thought the ROM is broken and checked InsertCoin after a Full Wipe again. And here were even more problems. I left the phone unattended and it was changing from landscape to portrait by itself. It changed on homescreen,lockscreen everywhere. I'm really pissed off, because it looks really nice. To bad it's unusable on my device. I made device g-sensor calibration, but even when I made it succesfull it went wrong again. Either with landscape mode checked or unchecked. Maybe there is some option I can disable in applications? The ICS brought the option to disable some stuff. I don't know why it happens with landscape mode unchecked in tweaks, and autorotate unchecked in screen options. I'll look for some g-sensor measuring apps in Google Play

To stop the rotation completely, go to Settings>Display>Auto-rotate screen> Off.

SuperCID and try flashing a different firmware. That probably could be causing some problem.
Now that sounds reasonable. I've got stock firmware from stock 4.0.3. Then I've done htcdev unlock and jbear s-off. Now I've flashed OrDroid 7.1.1 (previously was 7.1.0), and I'm waiting for the results. Is there any other firmware than the stock 3.32? Can I flash it while I have OrDroid, or do I have to change firmware,make a Full Wipe and flash OD 7.1.1 again.

no flashing firmware wont touch RM...so after flashing the firmware you can boot to ordroid again and can use it normally
for 3.32 firmware get it from this thread
get the one w.r.t your CID..if you are superCID then get any 3.32
SOLVED works like a charm now. Thanks ! Like I said, I'm gonna hit thanks like a maniac

No worries mate, glad I could help!
Check out these pictures, whenever I press a letter in landscape mode, it auto-corrects to the letter to the right of it unless I press the letter unnaturally off to the left. Only in landscape, portrait works fine. Other keyboards work fine. Just the sense 4 one. It makes the keyboard useless in landscape though. Anyone else have this issue? Any ideas on how to fix it? I'm on the new viper rom. Wouldn't be a huge issue except for every time I try to type I in landscape mode it changes it to O.

Try and reflash your Rom WITHOUT wipeing. So you don't loose everything. Should fix it. hope I helped

No luck. Same problem. Also, whenever my battery is low, instead of a flashing red light, it's just solid. Why is that? It's happened to me before on sense roms.

Hey, I tested it and it happens when u select hide buttons in landscape.
U should use only hide in portrait , then it works perfectly
Hope I helped!

Sounds like this might be it. When I chose to hide the arrows during the aroma install, it ended up only hiding them for portrait mode. I still have them in landscape mode, and while it'll take getting used to them being there, it doesn't take up any extra space.
Beyond that, maybe you could run the keyboard calibration where it makes you type all the characters.
That did the trick! Thanks, it was driving me nuts. When you disable the arrows it doesn't readjust the touch calibration I guess for prediction. Portrait still works fine though so I'll keep them off there.
I have a NeXBox A95X and for some things it works really well, like Plex.
However other apps seem to default to, for want of a better word, a touch screen configuration.
For example iPlayer will not let me navigate with the cursor keys and I have to switch to mouse mode from the remote that came with it.
Also Google Play will not let me navigate properly using the cursor keys either.
I've looked for settings that set it into a different mode but cannot find any. Does anyone have an idea if there is anything I can do?

I am currently using an EM95X Android Box with a Viewsonic touch screen. The touch screen has been working perfect with the box. My issue is with the rotation ability. Anytime I force the screen into portrait mode the system UI crashes. Unfortunately, I need the monitor view to be vertical. I cannot figure out how to stop it from crashing. I have tried several rotation apps with the same results.
I have went into the build prop to view the rotation texts and the only thing I have found is this:
"Persist.sys.app.rotation=middle_port"
I thought I might be able to find somewhere I can change the rotation, but I have not.
Any suggestions?
