Is there a way to disable the automatic screen rotation for specific applications? I thought I'd seen a settings app that did this, but haven't been able to find it on xda or anywhere else. Are there per-application settings that control rotation or is it just the global setting that's available? I've seen mention of doing this by editing an app's manifest.xml file, but am not sure if this can be done if all I have is the apk or not...
Yes i too would love and app that does this. Hope someone writes one soon
still looking for this :/
Its called PerApp... ill post a link soon

One solution...
I recently discovered the Xposed Framework and am using the App Settings module within it to control a variety of per-app settings, including orientation.
Found this on the VZW forums and haven't seen it here yet. If you create a widget with Elixir, you can toggle the hotspot on/off without needing to change your phones date/time.
https://market.android.com/details?id=bt.android.elixir
Install this app.
Create a widget on the homescreen.
I picked Elixir 1x1
Click on the X at the top and choose Wi-Fi Ap(Hostspot) switch.
Then click create.
Then click on the widget you created and it will launch your mobile hotspot.
Good Find!
Thank you!!!
Edit: where is the x button located?
I've checked around a bit but am unable to locate.
Further edit: found it. It is a bit transparent at the top.

Hi everyone,
I am using AOKP ROM build 40 and I want to change page transitions or app opening transitions....
Please can anyone help me with this....I had seen some really cool transition animations like the dialog box popping from the bottom in one of my friends SG ACE ROM....
Thanks

I just use GO Launcher as my default launcher and use the animations/transitions from there. So many to choose from and for different scenarios too.
Personally, I set all my "effects" to Random. That way every time I switch home screens or enter the app drawer, it's different!

I am asking for animations which are for built in things...like the dialog box for everything or any app opening....I figured out that it can be done by editing anim folder in Res folder of framework.apk....but still I need someone to give me some some animations which are in XML format so that I can edit the apk....

Can someone please provide me with a walk through on how to enable quick setting tiles? I surfed the forums for about an hour and couldn't find anything specific. The only thing I could find were images of the "torch" quicksetting and using number values to enable them. I used SQLite Debugger (free from the app store) to enable the power saver mode, so that would also be nice to have in my quick settings. Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT: Finally found "EQS list" thread, but no value for "torch" tile
I believe I saw a flash in the this section which enables wifi tether and also adds all the quicktiles. It was posted by runandhide.

A lot of people have been having trouble finding out how to enable download booster and until a developer makes a mod to enable the native settings in your settings this is the only wave I know of to be able to do so.
In order to do this you will need to use a third party launcher. In this example I use Nova Launcher - launchers like Apex should work as well (as well as most decent third party launchers).
1. Go to home screen.
2. Hold down your finger on the screen till menu pops up.
3. Click on Shortcuts.
4. Click on Activities.
5. Scroll down to "Settings" and click on it which will open up a long list of things.
6. Scroll through the list till you find Download Booster. Click on it.
7. Now you will have a shortcut on your home screen that will take you to the download booster settings screen.
8. Enable download booster.
9. Enjoy
P.S. Wasn't 100% what forum to put this under as it's obviously not "development" nor did I think it was general or Q/A so I thought here was the most fitting (as it is kinda an "app" I guess?) - mods feel free to move to this to the appropriate forum if need be.

You forgot to mention needing a different launcher in your excitement...

Lol oops when I first wrote this out in an other thread I had already mentioned to use a third party launcher but forgot to mention it here. Good catch!

There's also an app on the play store called activity launcher that will work to open and/or create the shortcut as well.

Also like the S5 from Sprint its there but thats all it is until someone can get it working. When its working it will show both download speeds and show the icon as bright not grey. Unless its working for someone else i just know its not for me same issue with s5 until someone modded it.
I understand what this does, but what is the benefits of enabling this? Does this interfere with Wifi calling?

Open the setting shortcut and it'll list a sublist of more. Download booster is one of them.

When its active it will be the same color as your wifi icon. ...on s5 its how it was when they finally got it working
I can confirm that the icon will show up with this method but it does not light up. Looks like the feature is disabled.

Yes all carriers but T-Mobile have i believe. But someone will get it going im sure
Heads up, the Galaxy Tools app in the playstore will add the native icon to the quick settings in the notification bar....just select "Add all Notification Toggles"....throws a few extra in there as well
Works
Its there but don't "work"
I found some other settings that were thought to be lost to this phone. Smart scroll, and hand gesture call answering. Do the same thing, shortcuts, activities, settings, smart scroll and air gesture.
