So when I turn off auto rotate in the quick settings menu it always switches to portrait mode. Am I missing something? How do I lock it in landscape?
I think they just removed it. Landscape lock still exists on tablets. My Nexus 9 has it but not on Nexus 6

I am using AOSP YMCA Gingerbread ROM 1/28 and I notice I get lag on my screen when it switches into landscape mode. Is there a way of preventing it from going into landscape mode?
Do you want just ADW to stop switching, or every program (except youtube or apps that run natively in landscape)?
Landscape
You can actually turn off auto landscaping.
Home Screen -> Menu -> Display, then uncheck auto-rotate screen. Applications like youtube will still be able to rotate when you put them into landscape.
I think that's what you're requesting.
Thank you that fixed it

I was wondering if there is any way to change the unlock screen orientation to landscape. I am using CM7 and it has sometimes shown an unlock screen in landscape mode for half of a second before switching back to landscape. I would like to get it to stay in landscape if it is possible.
Edit: Solved WidgetLocker Lockscreen in the market has an option for this...
Is there a method by which I can auto-rotate the lock screen and/or dialer? I'm running Liberty3 2.0 and ADWLauncher.
Have you gone settings > display > auto-rotation? They should auto-rotate when the keyboard is open, but this will allow (for sure) the dialer to rotate once unlocked. I'm not sure if your lockscreen will even with it checked.
I have it set but when the KB is closed the dialer and lock screen don't rotate. I have a regular holder in my car, not a dock, and its pretty annoying when I call from my headset and the dialer comes up sideways :-/
There is a hack that allows you to do this. It hink there called power widgets or something. Also many of the custom roms have this

There's an app in the market called Smart Rotate which allows you to force rotation on individual applications.

If I want the screen permanently in portrait mode I can switch off "Auto rotate screen".
But how can I achieve permanent landscape mode?
(I'm on ICS)
Many thanks.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
What're you using ?
If you are using touchwiz landscape is impossible.
For some other launchers(like Apex) set orientation to permanent landscape
I'm running LauncherPro over ICS. But in fact my problem is solved as I'm successfully in permanent landscape mode thanks to the app "Ultimate Rotation Control".
I'm experiencing some strange behaviors on my Note 5 that I can't find mentions of anywhere else on the web. The bugs are minor and pretty much everything else works, but it's still quite annoying that I can't find a way to fix these issues. Do any of you know what is causing these problems?
Firstly, when I go into split screen mode I don't have that white circle that lets me adjust the sizes of the two screens. I get that circle in pop-up mode, just not in split-screen mode. Why would this be? I can't find any item in the settings menu related to split screen mode so what happened?
Secondly, I can set my phone to auto-rotate and turn the phone to landscape, but the moment I try to lock the orientation the phone turns itself back into portrait. I'm not just talking about the launcher; no matter what app is in the foreground, I can't lock the phone to landscape unless the app forces the phone into landscape in the first place. Again, I can't find any item in the settings menu related to orientation locking.
Bump?
In regards to the orientation issue, I know the quick toggle only has portrait and auto-rotate as it's two options. I don' t think it's a true rotation lock setting.
Does anyone know anything about the multitasking circle, or is that too not a feature in the first place? (I'm pretty sure I saw screenshots with the white circle present though)
