New Nexus 7 Landscape Mode

I bought the N7 a few weeks ago an love it. The only thing I found I didn't like was not
having home screen rotate to landscape mode. Luckily there is a free app in Google Play
Set Orientation Eyes Free Project

Ratings are saying that it causes lag. If rooted might as well edit local.prop

Just use the beta apex launcher it is perfect.

Nova launcher also does the job, its so smooth on jellybean

I get so much lag doing the local.prop fix. Sometimes it works immediately when I rotate, but more times than not it will hang for 30-40 seconds before you see anything or can do anything. Ever since I turned off Currents everything else has been perfect except screen rotation. Any ideas?

Edit the build.prop file for true tablet ui with no lag. The dpi I use is 175 which is perfect. You do have to revert back to 213 to make purchases threw play. So I buy apps in bundles so I spend as little time with that hideous stock phone ui.

Why not just use a multi dpi play store like i do? I use slimBean, one is included with that. I can see all apps at any dpi

Or use EOS rom which has native DPI tablet mode and no worries at all.

Just finished unlocking and rooting with Wug's tool,and installed PA with Motley kernel. Getting all my apps and settings in order now!
So far I'm digging it!!!!
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app

I caved in and bought the ultimate rotation license for $4 :what: It seemed a bit much but it works like a charm with no lag and it rotates in a split second unlike the other methods I tried. Another thing I factored in was, I was able to also use the license for my samsung galaxy s3 cause touch wiz also doesn't rotate so I figure 4 bucks for 2 of my devices isnt that bad.

Use ultimate rotate control with your 25 bucks its worth it

I love ultimate screen control , but is it normal for the notification shade to be towards the left when in landscape mode (when pulled down)? I wish it were in the middle...

Hold - back to kill current app

This is the main feature on that I miss, the possibility of killing the open app by holding back button.
It's a very simple procedure, and I'm sure that there's Tasker script to do this, but do you know any app that can do this on any rom? I don't have Tasker and don't intend to buy it.

You will find it on cm 7 and cm10 rims.
Sent from LG 2X using Tapatalk 3 Beta

which rom are you using? cm10/10.1 has this option
developer options > (scroll to the bottom) kill app back buton (turn it on)
back button has to be pressed for a while (second or two) to kill the foreground application...

Ow, I'm sorry. I was saying that this is the main feature I miss on stock roms; I always used this on cm. But what I find funny is that it looks a very simple work to do, and very useful also (e.g. killing that wrong app you opened before its 10s to open), but I can't find it on play.

I miss it too, along with the hold volume to change tracks when standby, anyway stock ics (dmx to be accurate) is much better than cm imo.

Gave the xt925 version a quick go on the atrix hd and everything looked great. The only thing I noticed was the baseband version was different (I'm guessing something with the modem) and so lost LTE on T-Mobile. Went into 4636 settings to make sure LTE/gsm was selected but it only liked edge. Tried reflashing the stock radio and it will didn't change the baseband. Flashed my backup rom and it had the right baseband version and LTE was back. Any idea as to what I need to do to get back LTE?

I believe that is an issue with the latest Play Store update. Although it hasn't happened on my RAZR, it does happen on my N7.
Since im posting... How does one turn off the charging LED? I went through setting multiple times but haven't come across it yet.

How did you manage to build this? I checked the site and it only said how to build for supported devices (I don't believe RAZR HD is supported).
And if you built from sources, it's not a port.

Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium

here are what I found out:
there are some alignment issues with the dialer and when setting up a pattern PW
then lock screen is non responsive for about a minute. so u have to try to unlock it numerous times
Franco kernel works
supersu is in chinese
quick reply pop up in txt is mis aligned
torch not working
verdict: if the lockscreen issue and misaligned stuff gets fixed its a daily driver and it cud have been better with its own navigation buttons
going back to miui for now
