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
I have found a list with new features for the One here. Mostly all apply for the One mini.
New things:
Do Not Disturb, very cool thing that simply sets phone in Do No Disturb mode. You can set for how long and who/to be excluded from it. Turns of sound, notifications and all such things that might disturb. Accessed for the pull down quick settings menu.
Gallery have changed a lot. Albums now have a tiled look much like events, and you can now see your HTC Shares and even delete those (and see how much space there's left there). Video highlights got all new themes, and you can even add your own music.
In Camera Sweep Panorama can now be both landscape or portrait. Camera UI changed a bit, you see text Zoe under the Zoe button. And when you start Camera you see how many photos and minutes video there's left on the phone's storage.
With screen lock active, swipe to the left in the upper right part of the screen. Then you get a + sign where you can add screen lock widgets.
Under Call in Settings you have Phone Notification Preview, which shows you caller ID missed calls on screen lock and status bar.
If you don't want both lock screen and security screen you can disable screen lock (you need a security lock first) under Settings > Security > Bypass lock screen on wake.
Select what kind of notifications you want on lock screen under Settings > Security > Notification Settings. You can select: Phone (shows missing calls), Voice mail, Text messages, Emails and Calendar.
Select if you want Music playback controls on not on your lock screen under Settings > Security > Music Playback
With Developer options active, option Stay awake is now back. Which keeps the display on while charging.
Pull down quick settings menu can now be customized, with up to 12 quick settings.
In Weather app you can now select temperature scale under Settings.
You can add your Google+ account in Blinkfeed.
Disable Blinkfeed by long pressing empty area of a regular screen, then tapping “Blinkfeed on” on the upper left hand corner. Which turns Blinkfeed off.
Under Sleep mode in Settings > Power, you can now set start and end of Sleep mode or have it set as Auto.
With phone turned off: alarms can now turn phone on, then trigger the alarm. And when you dismiss the alarm phone gets turned back to its previous state (off), this is a major thing.
Zoom-bar in camera is hidden, you pinch-zoom to control zooming (zoom-bar is shown when you pinch-zoom).
Connect charger to phone while it's off while show a charging “animation” on the display for a while.
Things different from Sense 5.0, things that are “missing”:
Screen lock option gone from Personalize, there is no settings for any kind of screen lock theme under Settings. You can’t set screen lock theme to “none”, and there is no way to set wallpaper for lock screen since screen lock themes are gone.
T9 layout gone from stock keyboard.
Known bugs:
With Animations turned OFF under Developer options, Share menus and things will simply not work. It affects more than just one thing, so: keep animations ON. So, if you're affected: Set all Animations to 1 and restart phone (that part is important).
In lock screen you can add some widget: swipe to left and click + icon
You can also "personalize" lock screen from settings/security/notification but just for missing calls and sms !
With Sense 5 you can set also email and calendar, the ones that now I miss !!!!
Edit: after some test I'm really disappointed that even with missing calls and SMS notification active they don't came on lock screen but only in notification bar, so this is also a bug !

Oh no! These are two of the features I enjoy most! So, no more weather animations on screen lock at all???

You can still put widgets on lock screen, while on lockscreen swipe to the left in the right top corner. There's also a small arrow, press on the "+" and add a widget but I think it's not possible anymore to add it on the main lockscreen :/ yea I miss a notification system like Apple has. Google should built it in, in android and give the devs the option to add it into there apps like Apple do

Hi,
I'm back to screen lock bug notification win Sense 5.5...
To be sure of this bug, before I contact htc support, can someone do a test ?
It's easy: set the notification for Text Message, go screen off and ask a friend to send a sms to you; when received wakeup screen and check notification if it is only in notification bar or also in lock screen...
Thanks.
Confirmed that text & missed call notiications don't show on lockscreen.
Also, I can only add 1 lockscreen widget it seems - once added, swiping to left again does nothing. Is this by design?
Thanks for confirming the lock screen notifications bug...
Yes, I think only one widget is by design (the widget can occupy all the screen...)

But then can't add any more widget screens to the right? That really sucks. It's always 1 step forward, 2 steps back with HTC ...
Maybe I didn't understood...
In lock screen you can add only 1 widget, but in normal screen you can have many pages with a lot's of widgets...
bug with log screen confirmed, regardless, disabled or enabled in security settings, I can not see notifications for missed calls or messages on lock screen. Can we install some app from the market in order to fix this issue (while waiting for HTC to fix it)?
Another nice new feature is the option to adjust the Automatic Brightness setting - can now set the maximum brightness value, works a bit like iOS.
Also the Music Player widgets now have a blue circle around the play icon to indicate duration of track remaining.
Anyone else finding that the Airplane widget takes you to settings now, instead of toggling Airplane mode? I'm no longer getting the rolling Airplane animation.

I confirm, it also takes me to settings. As a solution you can set airplane mode in the notification bar toggles.

Hi! I am confirming the bug with missing notifications on lock screen on my One Mini. HTC support had no knowledge about this bug. Are there any work-arounds to get notifications on lock screen? All apps I have found can show notifications on second (swipe right) lock screen only and it does not work for me.
I do not have this bug on my HTC One (not mini) with same Sense version.
Regards!
In gallery, i can :
- make gif from my video
- apply custom effect
---------- Post added at 06:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:02 AM ----------
But somehow, i never can display my gallery content in blinkfeed. Any solution?
For lockscreen notifications i use Nils new floating panel. Really best solution so far. Its still in Beta but working great

I have only 'Phone calls' and 'Text Message' in the security -> notifications. No emails / calendar.
Also wondering if I'm the only one who's music is suddenly stuttering every now and then since 4.3 (more an Android 4.3 thing than a Sense 5.5 thing I guess)

I can confirm this. On BT the music is hanging randomly, this is very annoying. If it's the same with cable, then this is a huge bug.
Reading here there seem to be a lot of down sides to the new 4.3 update. that or it's still in it's early stages of development? I'm still using 4.2.2 and loving it, but was wondering if there was anything major I'm missing by not upgrading?

This is enough for me for an upgrade :good: :good:
Hi,
I am looking for an App to manage screen rotation when you tilt your phone just the way the stock screen rotation app does.
Just so there is no confusion: there are a tonne of screen rotation management apps already out there. ALL of these (AFAIK *shrug*) do not implement a screen rotation thread. Instead what they do is enable or disable screen rotation so that the stock system thread will rotate or not-rotate.
Rather, I want to "replace" the stock thread.
This replacement app would:
1. disable the stock thread (this is easy through the settings.)
2. monitor the two-axis tilt sensors.
3. set the rotation 0, 90, 180, 270 as required.
What is the advantage of such an App over the stock rotation thread?
Well there are several:
A. you can extend the functionality to bump or shake.
B. you can adjust the sensitivity.
C. you can get your rotate working if the stock thread is broken -- which happens on some phones.
Does anyone know if any app implements its own rotation mechanism as I describe?
Best wishes
Paul
bump
bumpity bump
I don't think there are any apps that can replace the stock rotation system, they can only extend the functionality. It's also possible that some can force rotate it if your sensor is somehow broken.
An app called "Rotation" adds a floating button that gives on-demand rotation. Though I don't know of any apps that have all the desired features into one. I know there's a shake to rotate app, but I don't think there are any bump to rotate apps.
is it possible to change an app's orientation using this so that it opens up only in portrait instead of always in landscape?

that does not make sense
if you can (1) read the sensor, and (2) you can force rotate, and (3) you can disable the stock rotation system,
then that 1..3 means that you are effectively replacing the stock rotation system.

The app that I named in my previous post doesn't work if rotation is disabled.
It has a small switch in the top right corner which turns on its service, which in turn also turns on the auto rotation system of Android.
I haven't used any other rotation apps except the one I mentioned, but I'm pretty sure they all require auto rotation to be turned on.
And that's what I would call "an extension of the stock functionality", because a replacement wouldn't require the stock system to be turned on, correct?
I use tasker for this. You choose the apps you want to be able to rotate the screen or you choose the orientation you like for that app. The system orientation is untouched by this.
Not sure if you really looking for this but that's how I handle my gallery, youtube, ... (rotation enabled, brightness to 90%). After you exit the app everything switches back like before (in this case only brightness to 25% because orientation is still disabled by the system).
Hello,
I have a problem with display rotation, on Stock 8.0 i could lock in landscape rotation in apps (like browsers for example) via quicksettings toggle (tap once for auto rotate -> hold phone sideways (while browser open) -> tab toggle again, phone now locked in landscape mode. Ever since updating to 8.1 it wont stick to landscape mode, it will instantly go back to portrait orientation :/
Can anyone confirm if they can still use the quicksetting orientation toggle in the way i described above (anyone on 8.1)? Is it a unknown bug maybe?
I am not using stock kernel (due to magisk and safetynet) but testet it on two different kernels (currently on flash kernel).
Or does anyone know of a solution that does not require an additional app running/managing the rotation?
Thanks!
Edit: For anyone facing the same problem, i found a workaround. It's not perfect but has to do for now: Download "Tiles" from the Playstore (paid app), there one can add a toggle for rotation that toggles through all avaible orientations. It's still more annoying than a native toggle that sticks to landscape straigth away but at least it makes it possible to have an app stick to landscape orientation regardless of phone orientation.
