CM 10.1 lock screen rotation? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm currently on CM 10.1 M2 but using CM 10.1 since first experimental release. Is there any way to enable lock screen rotation or it's by design to have it portrait only? Is this even an option in CM? I think I've looked through all the options but to no avail... Thanks!

Hi. I have a Galaxy Nexus, and the ability isn't present in our CM 10.1 M2 either. Apparently it was in earlier builds in the display settings as a specific option, but is no longer there.
I notice that my Xoom doesn't have the option either, but the lockscreen still rotates.
Maybe all the actual phone builds don't have this then... I just replied because I've been seeking the same answers as you, but for the GNex.

As you can see you can try Screen Orientation on the Play Store. It rotates the screen and the lockscreen as you like. Check it out. I don't think that feature is available in the SGS but in 4.2 Moto Atrix they have it.

[Q] screen rotation

any app or setting available to enable screen rotation of 90,180,270 degrees? like cm rom.
Sent from my LG-P970 using XDA
From what i understand, the screen rotation is part of the ROM, so unless the ROM you use has that support you won't be able to activate 90/180/270 rotation.
Cyanogen has this in their ROM that's why it's available there.
P.S. any ROM based on cyanogen (like MIUI) has the same feature.

No torch app in CM9

So I got CM9 stable working on the Galaxy S - it's brilliant. But it's missing the torch app, and in the widget selection screen, the option to have a button for the LED flash is greyed out.
I have a Nexus S which, after updating to RC2 a few days ago, also is missing the torch. It originally had it in the nightly I was running previously. Is this some weird design decision by the CyanogenMod team? How can I get that functionality in the stable ROM?
EDIT: I am a moron. Feel free to delete this thread mods. Or leave it here as a testament to my stupidity. In my defence, I was installing it on a friend's Galaxy S... I was not aware the device didn't have an LED flash. :'(

[Q] how to fix auto brightness setting?

I have a somewhat strange issue with my Galaxy Ace.
In several roms, I'm unable to use the option to change the brightness by sliding the top of the screen. When i look in cynagen mod settings, it says auto brightness is enabled. I haven't enable anything, but I cannot change this.
I had this problem in cm9 from maclaw, i have it in cm 7.2 blackhawk and i had it in another rom.
However, I'd like to know how i can disable this auto brightness setting...
Where can I find this?
Idk exactly what you mean, but auto brightness isn't working anyways on our ace

BUG OR? Unofficial SlimBean build I9295 20140209-1333

Ok so I jst installed the SlimBean ROM on my SGS4A and it seems to be working really fine, all features are working pretty well.
Tho, there's a bug i found, there is like 1 cm wide area on the downside of the screen where i can't use my touchscreen on. I can't unlock or scroll through options. It works good on keyboard type tho. Seems to be like a "locked part of the screen".
It happens right under the locker image on the lock screen, and usually, on the last item of any list. eg settings.
Probably better off asking in the Slimbean thread in General.

[ROM][Development][POLLUX/POLLUX_WINDY][UNOFFICIAL] Cyanogenmod 12.1 by the FXP team

I'm not the developer but I noticed there is no discussion on this topic. So here it is
Download: http://fxpblog.co/cyanogenmod/cyanogenmod-12.1/
----------------
1 thing that I found that is different from CM11 is that the locked to portrait is gone. in CM11, if my device is in portrait orientation and I locked the rotation using the notification bar toggle, it will lock my divice to portrait. If my device is in landscape, it will lock it to landscape.
With CM12.1, if I do the same thing, it will only lock it to landscape. no way to lock it on portrait.
But otherwise good ROM.

Cool. So you've tried it? Is it better than the other unofficial CM12 or better than Official CM12?

this is the only CM12.1 ROM I've tried. I believe FXP team is the main source of Cyanogenmod for Sony devices. So their build might be not as up-to-date but you can be sure the guys know what they're doing.
The author of the other thread is the good chap doing all the Sony commits, pretty official.
