[Q] Trick to use portrait only app in landscape too - Android General

Hi,
Some apps can only be used in landscape mode. This is annoying as I am using also my phone in landscape mode.
Is there a trick (using tasker for example) or an app that could force these apps to be used in landscape as well as in portrait?
Regards, Chris

Ultimate Rotation Control is the app you are searching for

Hi,
With this app, you can set landscape manually only.
I am looking for a way to have the app going in landscape automatically when the smartphone sensor notice that I am in landscape mode.

No, with the app you can set auto mode itself in the app. Select Auto (full)

[REQ] Dual Keyboard Support

Hey guys. I was wondering if there is a way/app that will enable me to use swype while is portrait mode and HTC_IME mod in landscape mode. I'm aware that you can just change it urself when you switch, but it would be nice to have it switch automatically when you rotate the phone.
For me it seems swype is nice for quick texts, but I cant stand the portrait swype keyboard and its nice to go portrait for web browsing and long posts/emails. Thanks for the help =)
I would like to know this a well. I think the answer is "no"

Same issue
I have had that same problem... i hate the phone screen flipping around all the time but the only time i think its useful and worth the annoying accidental flips is when you are viewing pictures. Unfortunately, no there isn't a way to make it only work in the gallery.
Here's two workarounds:
There are home screen widgets that will let you quickly enable and disable the display rotation feature.
You can download any of the thousands of nice photo viewing apps from the market. Many of them have an option in there settings to make them stay in landscape mode.
the 8-6-AW superaosp ROM have this option ,so any one can do it?
thanks.

Force Rotation App?

Is there an app available where we can choose what apps we can rotate and not rotate. Plus this app would also need to force rotate the apps that only rotate to one certain way in landscape and not the other. Thank you..

Never heard about this . Or even someone ask about it . Leta say you wanna force game to rotate . Ita impossible because the game then will forceclose or even become a smartphone game

What k0sh it trying to say, is there isn't an app that does that. However, there is the shortcut in the status bar (Samsung roms only) that allows you to force the phone into one orientation only.

The reason I ask is I grabbed a netflix apk and that one rotates to wich ever way I have the screen. The original one that I grabbed from the market did not. So I was trying to see if I could have all my apps do that. But from what you guys said I guess its not available yet. Thank you both for the response..

How can I modify the system orientations -- lets say I want my four softkeys at the top of my phone rather than on the bottom of my phone in portrait mode. (as in permanently)
Anybody have any clue?

Launch an app in portrait mode???

Hello, is there a way which allows me to force launching an app in portrait mode? In fact, I use the Touchwiz camera and every time I launch it from portrait mode the app will take about one second to set itself to landscape mode before I can use it. I know that this is not a big deal but it would be better that if it does launch in portrait mode to save that one second.
