Turn Auto rotate, Portrait, or Landscape mode on or off
Swipe down from the top of the screen to open the Quick settings panel.
Look for the screen orientation icon. ...
If the screen is locked in Portrait or Landscape mode and you need to change it, tap the icon (either Portrait or Landscape) so it activates Auto rotate

Rotation Lock

Is there a program that locks the screen orientation so it only stays landscape?
I have a touch pro and would like the screen orientation to stay in landscape
and thanks in ahead of time
just some ideas but you could try the screen rotation software and set its default rotation to the landscape your after and dont allow any other rotations.
better yet if you can disable gsens rotation and set the screen rotation option in settings->screen to landscape (if its not there download advanced config and use that to enable the option)

Can't get auto rotate to lock in landscape

I like to use my Samsung Vibrant in landscape mode while lying on the couch, so the phone is physically upright, so it stays in portrait mode. How do I lock so it stays in landscape, no matter what the orientation is? All the apps I've tried so far disables auto rotate, but defaults in portrait.
Help!!

upgraded to JB, lost screen rotation

really strange. this is not "slow" it's just not happening.
home screen
web browser
pulse
other apps
funny thing was i actually like this for most of my use. but then i started to notice it. the strange thing is sometimes i'll pick it up in portrait mode and unlock and i will get the vertical lock screen.
anyone notice this? am i missing a setting somewhere?
It happened to me the same thing, set with a reboot.
Do you have Auto rotate enabled or disabled? (The block with two arrows around it in the quick settings.)
With auto rotate off it doesn't rotate when unlocked. Picking it up (and unlocking) in portrait mode rotates the screen to portrait mode. The lock screen does rotate.

Where is the toolbar in the landscape when the edge on the top?

Where is the toolbar in the landscape when the edge on the top?
Turn your phone 180° so the edge is on the bottom. Then you can access the toolbar at the top.

The problem some of the apps do not rotate. It stay in the default landscape orientation. Any way to change the landscape default orientation.

Question how to keep s22 ultra in landscape mode/orientation permanently ?

S22 Ultra has huge screen and I would like to use it in landscape orientation always, is there a way to set it permanently ?
I have already tried 'Turn your phone the orientation you want it to stay in and then lock it with the auto rotate button from the quick panel. You can lock it in either portrait or landscape that way.'
and didn't work for me, here is the video https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...orientation-permanently.4411873/post-86533919
one approach: use bixby routines and set to rotate to landscape for all apps on open

I dont see trigger for screen unlock
Is this not an option in the pull-down toggles anymore? I'm still waiting for my S22U to come in, but on my S8 you can pull down and get a "Auto-Rotate" toggle. You'd enable that, rotate the screen the way you want it, and then tap it again -- the text would then change to "Portrait" or "Landscape" and the rotation would be locked in.
Turn your phone the orientation you want it to stay in and then lock it with the auto rotate button from the quick panel. You can lock it in either portrait or landscape that way.

Search your settings for landscape and the rotate to landscape option near the bottom.

(had to record with other mobile as as screen recording gets stopped when locked.)
managed to make it happen
this is what I was missing.
Huh, that's interesting. Seems to be a more recent addition, there was no long-press menu on OneUI 1.0 yet. Glad it's working now!
