Using CarHome Ultra, added the phone(dialer) app as 1 of the buttons. Is there a way to make it rotate in car mode?
No, neither does the home screen. It's been a long term annoyance with TouchWiz. You can install other dialers such as true caller and nova both if which are great.

I am using adw launcher right now and i love it except or the fact that it switches to landscape mode when i am at my homescreen which i hate. I am trying to see but i cant find any way to shut this function off, can anyone help me?
Yeah, go into homescreen settings and turn off the auto-rotate function in your ADW settings.
Is anyone else having problems with wallpaper on Launcher Pro? Using the default launcher, the wallpaper scales down to the size I set. Launcher Pro keeps it HUGE and cannot be adjusted no matter what the resolution is.
Am I doing something wrong?
I have the same problem, it happens basically with any launcher that is non stock. theres apps that can fix the problem, but seems like a quirk that we're stuck with

So I was having the same problem and figured out what causes it, and a way to generally avoid it.
what seems to be causing it: Allowing home screen rotation. It appears that as soon as you rotate, Launcher pro resizes the wp to that pixelated mess, and will not revert it back once returning to portrait. I've had it happen also while going to the home screen while having the browser in landscape
to prevent: from home screen click menu / preferences / behavior settings / -> and make sure "enable auto rotation" is unchecked. (don't worry you can still rotate in apps by activating the rotation setting in the notification bar, unchecking that box just prevents the home screen rotation)
to fix your current messed up wallpaper: click menu / settings / applications / manage applications / -> click launcher pro / click clear defaults.
this will allow you to activate touchwiz again. So hit the home screen button and select TW to complete that action. after it's done try setting your wp again. Go ahead and reset launcher pro as your default now and your wp should still look good. You should now be able to crop new wp's and have them look fine too.
you shouldnt have to do this again
all set!
That did the trick. Thanks!
I tried that but it didn't work on my evo 3d
there is another work around
open the pic you want to use
rotate your phone to landscape mode
set your wallpaper using the landscape square, not the narrow one. Let it finish.
rotate your phone back to normal
your WP should now not be that pixelated mess
i'm liking ICS quite a bit but call screen annoys me...it can't rotate. i use car mode a lot so it annoys me when everything is sideways once i have it docked.
if anyone can mod the phone app that would be awesome! (i did see a mod for landscape call screen on the samsung galaxy 2 forum but that is for gingerbread).
landscape and dialer
I have the same question. I had the Sky Ice Cream Sandwich GB ROM and the incoming call screen had a landscape mode. It's frustrating not having it in ICS.
The stock dialer also does not have a button for contacts, it's as if they're separate. So I replaced it with exdialer. However that does not do landscape. Now I'm using Dialer One, which does landscape wonderfully (but doesn't allow you to delete those annoying redundant groups).
So, how difficult would it be to hack the call screen to have a landscape mode, and mod the stock dialer/contacts to integrate more?
Thanks!
1. I loved when using the phone the phone call would ring on the edge panel, since the recent update it pops up on screen (not the edge), any way to have the phone ringing on the edge only?
2. I've been a long time Nova user, it's been crashing a lot lately. I'm assuming it's because I have the flip cover case and when closed the edge panel lights up causing Nova launcher to crash. Anyone with Nova crashing issue?
What version? I have sprint, and the latest update does not remove edge ringer and NOVA launcher works great for me. I don't have the flip cover car though.
Thanks. I have the TMobile.

Settings scroll all the way to the bottom to call (click it). Then call related popups...
You are awesome! Thanks.
Btw I figured out the problem, under setting accessibility I turned on Voice command causing the call to pop up full screen.
Any ideas?
I've tried a few rotate widgets/apps, couple different driving mode overlays, Nova launcher, etc.
I want to use gopro app to turn/record but the home screen of the app requires you to log in, which cannot be seen in landscape view and no scroll function.
