Hello,
I've recently installed the stock ics rom by tonyp and harsh and I'm loving every bit of it, however when the auto rotate option is enabled, it rotates 360 degrees. How do I restrict it to rotating only in 0, 90 and 270 degrees? (couldn't find an option in the settings)

4D rotation can be enabled in most custom ROMs, but not all apps rotate. For the applications that don't rotate, is there any way to enable flip rotation? Either by changing something in their manifest or a ROM tweak?
Examples: androidVNC and Abduction
How can I set surface.rotation to always be 90 degrees so I'm always in landscape? I found an app that limits rotation to 0 and 90 but I would like to always be in landscape. Can I change a value for surface.rotation in android.view.display.getrotation with SQlite?
public int getRotation ()
Since: API Level 8
Returns the rotation of the screen from its "natural" orientation. The returned value may be Surface.ROTATION_0 (no rotation), Surface.ROTATION_90, Surface.ROTATION_180, or Surface.ROTATION_270. For example, if a device has a naturally tall screen, and the user has turned it on its side to go into a landscape orientation, the value returned here may be either Surface.ROTATION_90 or Surface.ROTATION_270 depending on the direction it was turned. The angle is the rotation of the drawn graphics on the screen, which is the opposite direction of the physical rotation of the device. For example, if the device is rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise, to compensate rendering will be rotated by 90 degrees clockwise and thus the returned value here will be Surface.ROTATION_90.
There was some mod to auto rotate the screen in upside down portrait in one ROM, but I dont remember which one
My Q is how to make every rom to auto rotate screen in every posistion?
miui rom has it , you have to enable it in the option
Here are some doubts i have about the screen orientation: the home screen is always displayed in portrait mode, Doesn't care about what settings i have, whether itis locked in landscape mode or not, or anything of that sort. I tried disabling the 180 degree orientation leaving only 90 and 270 checked. No go. Is this normal in all CM10.1 installations, or is it specific to the Ovation or is it purely my own dumbness, if that's even a word? I am more confused because i allowed the lock screen to be displayed in landscape, and it does. Just not the home screen.
Secondly the Skype app willonly work at 90 degrees orientation. Not even 270. Even if it is locked to landscape, shouldn't it be available at both 90 AND 270?
All other apps reorient or lock as per the tile in my quick settings panel. Why then is the home screen and Skype so stubborn.
I am running CM10.1 2030719 UNOFFICIAL Ova

Title says it all. I don't like the upside down rotation. Just my opinion. Anyway, I'm on stock with goodies 2.03, and it has the mod enabled. I'm just wondering if there is an app or flashable zip that I can use to get rid of it.
