I mainly use the slideout keyboard to wake my milestone, but then the lockscreen rotates to landscape - which takes few precious seconds.
Is there a way to prevent rotation for the lockscreen only?
I use CM6, if that matters ..
Thanks.

Hi!
How can I configure screen rotation that it does not use the g sensor but rotates the screen into landscape and back when I press the physical "back"-button?
Thanks.

Is there an app or hack that will allow the home screen to be rotated to landscape mode?
TIA!
Nope. Touchwiz doesn't allows rotation. You can install LanucherPro or other home launcher for rotation support, but there's no way to do this in TW launcher.
I'm running cognition 2.4.1, it has a rotation on the home screen! The actual home screen will rotate when the screen it turned landscape. The other cogs dont do this, even the newest one(11/18/10). I asking if we can get a full 360 degree rotation for the screen, like the jailbroken iPhone. That's just cool! Useful as well when using it in the car on landscape.
Check Settings=>Display and see if auto rotate screen is checked.
You can also use LauncherPro to achieve the same.
or you can simply pull down the task bar, and hit the auto rotate button
I actually like the home screen rotating. I'm just wondering if there is a way to do full 360° rotation. With the plug on the top, I could turn the phone upside down when in the car. I love it.
It's launcher dependant. Pull the launcher .apk from whatever ROM and plug it into another.

Does anyone know if it possible to have the keyboard default to landscape while auto screen orientation is off? I like to keep auto screen orientation off to save battery but I prefer to type in landscape mode... Am I SOL?

i'd also like to know if this is possible....
Is it possible to set the home screen to rotate? I use the original rom and with "rotate screen" - ON , but the home screen did not rotate.
Currently on stock firmware there isnt a function to make the the home interface rotate. A dev could possibly make a mod, but development is slow. one other thing you can try is try another home launcher.
It does rotate when using the docking station though, so the functionality is already there. Just the lockscreen does not rotate.
Thanks for the replies. I have the phone for one day and still learning what to do and to setup.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I think also the lockscreen will be easily able to rotate, with the pincode turned and screen locked try to take a picture, the press manual mode, it will ask for the pin, for ~2s the lockscreen is perfectly aligned in horizontal then it rotates.
I don't get why Sony should prevent homescreen and lockscreen to rotate when seems they are both built to do that.
try "Screen Rotation Steuerung" App -> set to auto -> voila you have rotation Homescreen! (Damn not ootb)
