I've been having this problem with my launchers lately. Whenever I press the back button to close an app and finally go to the launcher or just press the Home button, I've noticed that the launcher restarts itself (no, it doesn't force close, just restart) all the icons and widgets start to appear gradually, it's really slow and it kinda get's on my nerves. This happens 8/10 times.
I first noticed it while I was using the Xperia Active launcher, same thing happened with arc and LP. What causes this to happen? Low RAM maybe?
I was in this problem too!
If you want to fix it just make a new software to ur phone (SEUS)
Plz hit the thanks button if I helped ya

Go to camera app and press screen. You'll notice little button with icon same as Settings.app press it and it will open a popup window. Scroll down and you will see Picture Size option and choose what you need. Hope I helped.

Hi,
I don't know whats the problem but lockscreen is not working I tried changing setting in CM7 nothing. I tried going to location security and putting lockscreen gesture and nothing pls help
What do you mean not working? It's not appearing at all? Go to tablet tweaks in CM setting and uncheck disable lockscreen. Maybe that's causing it.

After un-install cameratest the phone started to work much faster. Before it used to lag and the screen movements sometimes looked like was jumping between fast short freezes. Now it's like with ICS or faster...
Anyone tried that?

Hey guys,
I read, that you can force auto rotation in launcher by editing the build.prop.
My question is: what do I have to add and where?
Thx

Take the Xperia launcher mod ra3l or something like this was his name here from xda. It's look like the normal launcher but it work on all android 4.1 and up.

But I think it should be possible without installing apps? (I don't like bloatware )

I think this is what your looking for, not sure if it works with sony home though.
launcher.force_enable_rotation=true
Add it to the bottom of your build.prop and find out.
By the way... i found this by typing in "auto rotate launcher build.prop" into google.
Thx for your reply
Sir, be sure I used Google, too, and I found that as well. But it didn't work for me, it seems to be a kinda Google launcher solution. I'm just wondering if there is a solution for xperia as well...

I think for the sony launcher the xml files need to be edited in the apk.
I used to enable lockscreen rotation all the time in my old phone and that needed a value changing in the framework.apk

well if by build.prop it cannot be done, if i may suggest using App Setting found in xposed installer. with that app u can specifiy which app will have forced rotation. mind u that u need to be rooted to use it.

well you could try the various screen rotation app available in playstore if u want. before I use app settings I was using one of those.
EDIT : oops sorry didnt read above post that its eating RAM. have u restart ur phone after module installation? just curious cause I didnt get that problem ur having now
Yeah I did. Don't know, maybe it's a problem with the Existenz Rom? Cause my home app may be kind of modified.
