I just started using my first Android phone 2 days ago, so this is probably a really dumb question, but I've figured almost everything else out and this one not so intuitive.
When I'm in the home screen or the alphabetical list of all apps, if I turn the phone horizontal it won't switch to landscape. It only rotates if I open the keyboard. The settings menu and most apps auto-rotate fine, so I know the phone can sense it right., it's just the basic Android screens that won't landscape unless the keyboard is open.
I'm using CM11 from 21-OCT-2014 and the only extras I've installed are gapps, k9 mail, firefox, google translate and google wallet. The "Auto-rotate screen" box is checked, as are the "0 degrees" and "90 degrees" rotation mode boxes.

Probably depends on the launcher (home screens and app drawer is handled by launcher). Some have a setting to enable it, some don't...
I dunno if this is normal behavior, something I can change in a setting, or a bug in something, and if so what?
Not quite sure what a launcher is, but I only installed the stuff I mentioned before, so I assume my launcher is whatever comes with CM11 or Gapps.

Done, and it worked! Thanks much. Any explanation as to why editing a system file was necessary to do something that seems to me should be automatic? Will I have to do this again after updates or anything?
(Of course nothing is simple the first time; took me over an hour to do this; figured easiest way would be from terminal, but had to find the file without a whereis command, then didn't know how to hit "ESC" when trying to edit with VI since there's no ESC key on our keyboard, finally found it in a menu, then wasn't able to save cuz readonly... tried again after su but same result, considered changing permissions but since I really didn't know what I was doing, did a web search, found a tutorial for editing it with ES file manager, which I installed, but the 2-year old tutorial had different menu structure for putting ES into "root explorer" mode, but finally got it modifiedt, saved, rebooted).
And I still dunno what launcher I'm using. After posting I did some web searches earlier, seems CM has its own launcher (forgot name, something that sounded french), and GApps has a launcher, but I read the CM version of GApps (that I used) doesn't change the launcher, but I also read the launcher from GApps is the one that will pop up google now if you swipe on the side of the screen, and that keeps happening to me (by accident as I'm trying to figure out how to use this thing) so it seems I have the GApps launcher. I dunno.
My problem is solved as mentioned in previous post, just rambling as I'm trying to understand all this.

Use a different launcher? Nova, GoLauncher, Apex, Aviate, etc... most should have options for this.
Is there no way to fix it permanently in the default launcher? I'd just rather not use too many add-ons unless truly needed, but am getting tired of looking up this thread every time I update CM so I can find the text I need to re-insert. I'm happy to figure out how to submit a real bug report but dunno if it's a CM issue or google issue or what...

There's no bug. This is by design.
If you don't like it, you can change the launcher or keep doing the build.prop hack.
Curious... why do you think it would have been purposely designed this way? I just assumed it was one of those things that worked right for some phones but not others or something.... There's already settings to turn off rotation (and to select which specific orientation to allow rotation), so if someone wanted it off for some reason they should be able to turn it off that way...
Either way, if it's not a bug report, then it's a feature request, either way I'd like to at least *try* to get it changed before I give up and try an alternative. I'd imagine the developer or whatever wouldn't want people switching to alternative launchers if there's something he could easily fix fix anyway. And I imagine since it's so easy to fix by editing that file, it can't be that hard to fix in the program or whatever, and since supported in other launchers it's not some system limitation or something...
Anyway just my thoughts. I'm still very thankful for being told the workaround, and I'll probably figure out how to write a shell script that adds that line for me so I can just run that after each update (instead of looking up this thread and manually editing a file on an annoying little device). But that only helps me, be better to get it fixed for everyone.

Android is all about choice, you've been given several workarounds which fix the problem.
Other than that, this is how the stock launcher in CM is designed. A lot of people don't want the home screen to rotate when the phone rotates, I'm one of them.

After doing my own work bringing the MoDaCo rom up to date with the Sprint MR, and a LOT of reading and researching, I'd like to start work on my own custom Hero rom. While speed and performance will be important factors I certainly want to maintain and/or improve functionality.
I have my own general vision for what I want to do, however I'd also like to get some community inputs on what you would like to see in a custom ROM.
If you can, please share 5 things you would like to see implemented. They can be features you've seen/liked from other roms or something you haven't seen done yet. I'm looking for some new ideas.
This ROM will be based on android 1.5 not messing with 1.6 or 2.0 until an official release is made by HTC/Sprint.
one great thing i would love to see included is a simplified task managment system. i am running task killer. but if it were possible to incorperate into the rom the ability to have a time limit on certin apps when not used that they would just stop.
The main thing that annoys me to no end right now would be to make predictive text allowable in all search forms, password forms and address boxes in browsers.
Would also love to see more functions from the locked screen like S2Unlock from WM. The ability to preview texts, emails and missed calls from the locked screen and either dismiss them or respond to them directly from the lock screen and have it open up the app that is needed like the SMS app/email app/Phone dialer after unlocking.
Edit: Oh and remove the vibrate from the dialer which Sprint added on the MR update. Why would they add this with no way to turn it off? SOME people DO wanna try and save their battery life ya know?? Stupid.
Something other than a minimally-modified stock ROM.

So both of you want applications for the most part, that's not a rom, that's something you can suggest in te developer section.
As far as something I'd like to see in a rom... A modified Kernel with SetCPU support would be wonderful

Maybe the second request is more of a software request but he did say "anything". However, the second one I believe is more ROM related as there seems to be something in the ROM that does not want to allow predictive text in certain forms.

Agreed.
I posted this in Modaco's thread and I'll post it here too. Email from Mike, dev for SetCPU:
There is a feature in the Sprint HTC Hero's kernel that prevents SetCPU from working. It likes to constantly set the CPU speed itself, and SetCPU can't override the kernel itself. From analyzing the source, I believe this is fixable. Are you using a custom ROM? If so, try asking your ROM developer to compile a kernel without the "PERFLOCK" feature in the kernel off. Because I don't have a Hero myself to test, I can't verify that this will work.
I don't know if the setcpu idea would work well with the cdma hero, one of the times I've wifi tethered I witnessed an overheat LED warning, thought nothing of it until I checked my battery info, which was pretty much beyond egg cooking temperatures, phone then force rebooted without warning... Not sure if that has to do with things inside the Kernal like mentioned, but it seems like overclocking the cpu might just fry it quickly with the hero, underclocking could be a different story though..
Also.. It's hard for me to say because I'm very interested to see what HTC will be bringing to the plate with Sense 2.0, but I wouldn't mind more interchangable/ custom themes, or modifications to the look and feel to Sense itself, or like what was said above, something more than just a tweaked version of stock. Landscape home screens would also be a nice addition to the Hero, I often attempt this when tired, wouldn't mind it actually working for me.

going to look into portrait mode in sense ui since i'm curious in seeing how it works too. any more ideas?
Do you think there is any way to optimize the htc_ime.apk? I hate getting keyboard lags when typing a text. That is the only thing about this phone that I could say that I hate.
Also don't want to beat a dead horse, but I wonder if there is any way to get the new maps to work with 1.5. Coming from the Dream forum, I know that they got it working on 1.6 (before it was released to 1.6) by tricking the app into thinking that 1.6 was actually 2.0. I'm not sure exactly how this was done but from what I remember, it didn't sound extremely difficult.
Then again, I'm not a dev so I don't know what it would entail.
Don't know if this is more of an app or what, but how about a way to change the frame colors from grey to one of serveral colors.
How about this, for the browser make it so I can type something into the address bar and if doesn't have a .com at the end of it. It then will give a Google search. Kinda of odd its not already like that it would keep googles numbers way high
The keyboard Lag would be great to fix and the rotating screen would make this phone even better than what it is. How about finding a way to increase the internal memory we start with. I don't know if that is possible but it sure would be nice to be able to have more to start with. I use Apps2Sd but still lose memory when I install apps. I am still real confused about this, but I am about 20 meg better than I was before I used Apps2Sd. I saw a video from unlockr.com where he was setting up apps2sd on a G1 and when he finished it showed the added memory from the ext3 partition in the Sd card and internal memory area in settings. he went from about 45 meg to over 500 meg after he finished setting it up.

Is the ability to choose which apps open (or don't open) on startup something that can be incorporated into a rom?

I recently upgraded from the CM7 stock ADW.Launcher (1.3.6) to ADWLauncher EX 1.2.2.
Firstly, I want to support the Dev of one of the best and most popular Apps out there.
The Feature I was most interested in was the ability to edit the Menu (I hate that More \|/ dropdown, totally unnecessary clicking).
When I try to do this:
Menu>More>ADWSettings>General Behavior>System Preferences>Customize Menu>
and then uncheck items, and/or move them around, the changes don't stick when I go back to my Home Screen.
Or more accurately, they stick about 1 in 20 tries, but I have found no rhyme or reason to it.
Anyone else experienced this same problem?
I was also discussing this on the CM Forum
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/18309-force-adwlauncher-settings-into-settings-menu/
And I'll post a comment directly on the ADWLauncher EX page as well
http://jbthemes.com/anderweb/2011/01/adwlauncher-ex-1-2-2-released/#comments
Workaround
Well, I think this is almost certainly a bug, but I did figure out a workaround.
Menu>More>ADWSettings>General Behavior>System Preferences>Customize Menu>
Make the change(s) you want
Press Back button
Click back into Customize Menu>
Make the change(s) you want again
Press Home button

I read your post on the other forum and was wondering if you or others have found a way to put the ADW Launcher EX menu back into the settings menu?
Once I purchased the EX version, made it my default, and deleted the regular ADW launcher, the ADW menu disappeared from the settings menu. I also tried to use root manager and move the file to /system/app folder from the /data/app, rebooted but nothing shows up.
Anyone have a solution to this?
No solution yet

Sorry to say, I haven't really come up with anything yet.
For the time being, I have settled on using the Customize Menu option, according to the hack I described above.
Since my [REQUEST] in the CM forum went totally unresponded, I think I will submit it in the Bug Tracker.
Skrki was discussing how Requests should be best handled, but until a more unified (and possibly democratic) approach is implemented, I think I'll just double-post in the Forums and Bug Tracker, and give links to each other.
I asked some devs here as well and they don't seem to know either... Let us know here if anyone reponds to you from the CM forums with an answer thanks!
This continues to be an issue...Customize Menu still does nothing, the workaround previously mentions seems to have some effect, but half of the menu items don't show up at all, regardless of what I do.
It's driving me nuts that I can't access the "Manage Apps" or "Remove Catalog" options...I don't even know what they do but they sound useful.
Has any progress been made on this?
I've tried using the workaround. It works, but not for the "Manage Apps". It is listed as enabled, but doesn't show. By far my most used menu item on stock, wish I could have it here.
I also found that the customize dock bar options dont stick either. Not sure what the issue is
So glad I found this thread confirming that I'm not crazy. No matter what I do the 'Manage Apps' button doesn't show up. Everything else seems to work fine, but this one button doesn't show. This happened on both my stock unrooted Nexus One and on a CM7 Nexus one (both with ADW Launcher EX). Since its been awhile anyone has posted here, as anyone found a solution yet?
Thanks.
I would like the ability for the stock ICS launcher to rotate based on the phone orientation. Obviously the launcher supports it because it will go landscape when used in any of the various docks.
Back on the Atrix OG, the NoattachTrix4G ROM had the install-time option to make the stock launcher rotate based on orientation, so there must be a way to modify something that allows the launcher to rotate without having to be in a dock. Has anyone looked into that and knows how to do it? In the worst case, I can try to find time to look at the NoattachTrix install script to see what it does (or, if it is just installing a new framework or whatever, get that file and see what was changed).
In the meantime, I was just wondering if anyone else may have already looked into it.
Yup. In GB it was a simple edit in the BlurHome2.apk's AndroidManifest.xml. I think it's the same in ICS, but in the homescreen.apk.
Look for this line and change "nosensor" to "sensor":
Code:
android:screenOrientation="nosensor"
The problem is signatures. You could probably edit your own and push it back to your phone without signing w/ no issues.. maybe. But, really a bunch of system apks need to be re-signed with the same key if you change one AndroidManifest.. so it would have to be included in a rom, or a big zip package to replace all of the re-signed apks..
Sent from my phone's mind
Can't the signing issues be resolved by using Eclipse?
Sent from my LT28at
I'm currently looking through all the info on how to do this (but I'm not in any hurry)...I've installed Eclipse on my Ubuntu system, looking through the other threads and tools. I have dragged my feet on doing this now for the past year because I know how I am with all this and it has the potential to take more time away from my necessary activities.
Ok, I starting learning how to do all this. I decompiled the apk, made the change, recompiled, but didn't want to take the time to make it work.
So, while reading an article on the Nexus 7, I came across two apps that allow the homescreen to rotate without mods:
Ultimate Rotation Control ($2.99): I tried it but thought I would try the free one first
Rotation Locker (Free): Using this one now. Doesn't restart with the phone. Make sure you are using the background method (long press "Auto").
Both of the above applications let the Moto homescreen rotate as well as any other apps that insist on being in portrait mode, but I'm trying the free on first to see if any issues show up.
This is for DeOdexed XXMC3 GT-P6200 AND DeOdexed GT-P6210 XXMD3 Only!!
For this Mod to work, you will need:
1.) Use a 3rd Party Launcher, (Nova,Apex,Trebuchet,etc.)
2.) You will need to make this your default launcher.
3.) Go to Settings and Force Stop TouchWiz Home Launcher I also cleared data/cache)
After this you can reboot and install this mod.
From my own experience and research on the Tab 2 forums, this may be the only way this works.

For Hot Boot to work you need to symlink PKILL with BusyBox Installer (recommend: JRummy) as mentioned : here
Known issues:
Alarm clock is distorted pretty bad when alarm goes off, but you can still easily slide to disable it..
To Fix: Install Xposed Installer with PerAppSettings .apk , set alarm clock DPI to 160 and Screen(dpi) to 600x1024.
Lockscreen missed call/unread text slider is distorted in portrait only.
Fix: Using Xposed per app settings, set Android OS DPI to 160 and Screen(dpi) to 600x1024.

Yes, it did.
Well after factory reset, these .zips seem to do nothing.. even with nova launcher. Strange indeed.
will do some more testing..
so far.. I think I'm going to have to rule this out , not working with touchwiz launcher.
as added to original post, this mod seems to only work on custom launchers which are set as default.
Also got some new wallpaper with this mod, see below.
Thank you for your work! It work great, just wondering is your mod adjust any dpi?
No dpi changes, use xposed if you are interested.
Is it working great with custom launcher?, if so can we get the name of the one you are using, also have you attempted to use touchwiz launcher?
Iwouldnt even recommend trying to go back, you may get stuck..
will add this and recommend force stopping twhome launcher to OP later, busy now.
thanks guys.

Multiwindow Mod
attn: chrisrotolo
Although I'm sure this is not the proper place to ask (and apologize if it annoys the op) but since you seem to be the only active developer for our device who is still attempting to modify stock i just wanted to know if u have spent any amount of time looking into porting the multiwindow mod to the P6200? Im not sure how familiar u are with the two distinct versions so far which can best be described as the 4.11 or phone/flashbar version and the 4.1.2 or tablet/floating windows version. At this point to get either working would be wonderful & a goal i'd be willing to brick my tab about(well maybe not literally but sum sacrifices must be made in the name of science...lol). Of course i've attempted the simpler solutions such as adding the permissions file & multiwindows jar which is enough to get the checkbox to appear in settings as well as the view selector controls to show up where the miniapps bar is located but obviously none of my attempts have been 100% successful. So far i have baksmali'd the various jars and have found almost all of the functionality to be intact when compared to the NOTE 10.1 which has the newest /preferred version of the multiwindow option but I must admit that i'm a complete newb when it comes to code so i thought i would seek sum assistance...that's if u even have the desire to dedicate sum time to tackle the task. If not, I only ask that u point me in the direction of someone with the time/knowledge/willingness to get it done because at this point i have become determined to do so. I have however done the least i can do which is read essentially EVERY post of EVERY thread on EVERY variation of the mod in an attempt to get an understanding of what i may be missing so below i will link to a couple of those of particular interests where they've had both success & failure.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2056515
^this is for the original note & although it includes uneccessary(but cool) extras this mod has not only been a success but would be the ideal version to get working imho
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2024227
^this a how to of of the older version of the mod for the galaxy s2(which as u know is the closest phone to our own device). Most of it applies to the newer version as well except the flashbar.apk itself which is not used anymore(i think...lol)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1988329
^this is the best breakdown i've found of the 2 different implementations & is actually written by the same guy that started the first thread i posted although again this is for the note/note 2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2049516
^ even though after almost 100 pages of posts this one is still a failed attempt i felt it was important to note because these guys have dug through the code EXTENSIVELY so if it is in fact a deeper issue i'm sure they would be more familiar with what WONT work and plus the fact that it's a sgs2 variant i fear we may be in a similar situation.
p.s. i aplogogize about the huge post ahead of time & thx in advance for any insight u may offer
Thanks.
I breifly glanced at the idea before.
I'm not real interested in the use/function actually.
I am interested in learning the prot/development part however. I also do not have much free time because of my job and married life.
When I do get a chunk of time, I will look into this for you and whoever may be interested.
I did see the SungSonic ROM at Tab 2 has an 'alfa5' version of multiwindow mod.
In the meantime, I encourage you to continue trying and feel free to email me if you need any assistance.
Thanks, Cheers.
Error Status 6
Every time I attempt flashing the zip I get an error status 6 and aborts the install. I did set Apex launcher as my default launcher and cleared data for touchwiz. I also tried flashing the stock phablet zip and that worked then I cleared data factory reset and flashed the zip with the same status 6 error and went into a boot loop, any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
try download again, maybe old file update script was missing a " or ) or blank line at end.

Chris,
I installed it on my 6210. It works fairly nicely.
However, there is a problem with the updater-script.
Line 6:

Needs to be

Thanks for mods. This and the ripple lock screen are really nice upgrades.

Thanks, both 6200 & 6210 script were misspelled, both fixed now. Sorry about that. Stock Phablet .zips look OK.
On my P6210, I noticed one bug in this mod: The notification panel grows over the top edge of the display in landscape mode when I have multiple notifications. I had the same problem using the Xposed TabletUI Trigger (which I tried before) mentioned in the Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 forums.
Yes noticed that as well, im on PA ROM now so I cant try anything.
i would setting touchwiz home launcher and systemui to 160dpi and 600x1024.
The only thing i noticed going off screen is mostly the clock which isnt a huge deal.
I am trying to get support for a widget app (Fancy Widgets) that doesn't seem to display quite correctly (seems to be using a font that is a bit too large in their widget ... a font larger than what was used/displayed on my old Droid 4).
The author wants me to try changing some Launcher Settings, like Grid size, as part of their debugging.
How do I do that? The author suggests a long press on the multiple task key on the lower right. I tried that, but nothing happens Well, nothing but getting the expect list of tasks running.
Honestly, I have never seen a place to change the stock Launcher Settings, on any of my Motorola android phones. But I am stuck that the author seems pretty insistent that I do this, and doesn't want to provide further support until I do.
Again, does anyone know if there is a way to get into the stock Launcher's settings on these phones?
No, the settings you are describing pertain to 3rd part launchers, not the stock launcher. I believe the app dev is mistaken.

Thanks for the confirmation. I thought that, but you know the old saying, the harder you fight, the more likely its you that is wrong. So, I wanted to check here before proceeding.
