I'm coming from a Nexus 5 running SlimRom where the first thing I did with every flash was to disable the ability to rotate 270 degrees. This is a useful rotation angle on a tablet, but I find it extremely irritating on a phone because every time I take the phone out of my left pocket and look at it at an angle, the screen rotates. I have been looking for a while now and I haven't found anything that will let me pick only the rotation angles I want--does anyone know of an Xposed module or an app that will accomplish this? Thanks in advance

Not sure if there's a module to do what you're asking or not, but I always just lock my rotation with the quick settings toggle until I actually want it to rotate.
What do you mean with 270°?
90°left? Or a 180°?
In any case is not possible out of the box you have tu use xposed and a module like gravitybox or gelxposed.
270° is rotating the phone clockwise into landscape. I know it isn't possible out of the box, but gravitybox doesn't have any settings to fix it and I don't use google launcher, so gel doesn't help me.
I don't want to toggle auto-rotate because I use the rotation feature a lot, just only in the 90° position
Bump, I really need help with this if anyone has any additional suggestions. Thanks
With such a huge screen, why didn't Google allow the home screen to display in landscape orientation? While I have never wanted this functionality before, it seems like it would be great here. I'm assuming there's no way to do this without root?
You can... download a third-party launcher such as Apex Launcher or Nova Launcher. You can find them on the play store and then make the launcher to be landscape mode or portrait based on the orientation of the phone.
If you want this feature with google now launcher then there is no way to achieve this, not until Xposed is made to work using ART
They had to follow Apple this time. The iPhone 6 plus has this feature due to larger screen.

You can try forcing the homescreen rotation with Ultimate Rotation Control:

Let us know whether it helps.

yep huge annoyance, especially since 1) iphone (!!!) now allows this and 2) google themselves allow it on android tablets
The launchers rotate, but the navigation and notification bars don't. Or at lease I have not been able to figure out how to make them do so. I know a custom ROM will fix this at some point, but part of the reason I bought this phone was to use as a micro tablet.

Son of a gun....this works! I just installed it and haven't used it yet to see if it keeps on working consistently, but so far, so good. Thanks!
Hello Nokia joy. Unfortunately, I lack an important feature in my Nokia 8 The one-handed mode, when activated, the window has been reduced. I came with my thumb to all the icons. To find out, this function was under: Settings, Accessibility. Who knows an answer? As seen in the picture. Greeting Stevo

One-handed mode isn't built into the OS of the Nokia 8.
The feature isn't available in AOSP and because Nokia are keeping their stock ROMs close to AOSP it isn't included.
However, you can always install this app to recreate the functionality
Thanks a lot for the info.

This works on all apps
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.refy.android.g8x.widemode
This is seriously very impressive. Nice work, only issue is it breaks the navigation bar and won't come back regardless if changing between gestures or normal navbar. Only fix is a reboot.
It does crash frequently inside an app.

hi, are you the developer of this awesome wide mode enabler?
If so, is it possible to enable dual screen working when folded completely (360 deg) same as lg g8X. i guess screen turns off when the magnetic latch (hall sensor) detected.
Also, possible to turn on dualscreen, switch/swap between screens, through tasker integration? disabling on-screen buttons

Yes, thank you using!
- May not possibe to enable dual screen while 360 deg. Framework checks cover state internally, ignore power on message when cover fully opened.
- Turn On or Off dualscreen through tasker integration is possible.
- Switch or Swap screen can use only activities from same package if non privileged apps. Could not possible Switch/Swap from Tasker integration.

Is it optimized for dual notch in wideview?
This app is wonderful! It works for my LG v50, but I have one problem, the wide mode screen is smaller than my phone's screen, leaving black borders. Is there any way to fix this?
Sorry I mean when it crashes in app its due to say keyboard opening, or clicking on a link. I don't think it's to do with the app, just which LG allows you to modify. Like, without root do you think its possible to have widemode on all time even when switching between apps or will we have to always open a widemode using the toggle. It be awesome if you could remap the activity to a button such as Google assistant button or include in floating menu LG has. Or swipes up from navigation bar.

That's not what I meant. The app itself doesn't fully fit either the dual screen or the main screen, it's smaller than both. It leaves borders around the bottom of the dual screen and the right of the main screen, as if the app is too small to fit the display. Perhaps Android 10 will fix some of these issues.
Does anyone have the APK for this? I'm wanting to try it on the Asus ROG Phone II second screen attachment just to see if it might work, and can't find the apk anywhere, or get it to download.

No you cannot. Asus uses different developer kit for twindock. LG & Asus apps aren't cross compatible to each other. Asus dual screen games also didn't work the same on LG
And this app uses LG's own implementation (which is very new, not yet published in public for developers)

Even newer updated v50 with wideview mode?
Hi dear members.
Long story short, i am fed up with the display setting that it's supposed to force fullscreen on selected apps but that does nothing 90% of the time at best. I also noticed that many people over here and reddit hoped that developpement would help bringing this to life with time.
I see that we couldn't find a sustainable solution for this, no modding, no rooting, no custom rom...
Only "app cloner" manages the result but doesn't work with many apps.
I wish we could have a developer option allowing the notch to be ignored system wide. Even if it means losing that circle portion of the display with app details being rendered behind the punch hole.
I bought into losing a small circle, not an entire portion of my screen. End result is that the screen panel is bigger than the galaxy s9 (or my previous lg v30) but in reality there is less usable screen space with this phone.
If we manage, all of our apps could take advantage of the entire screen. Too many apps are cut on top or on the side (landscape). Other 16/9 apps arend centered (fullscreen browser videos, many games, video editing software,... I always went "immersive mode" with all my previous devices but with the Galaxy s10, that's impossible except for (almost exclusively) the gallery app and YouTube.
TLDR : i wish we could get true immersive mode system wide if we wanted to.
I would like us to launch a petition that we would show Samsung via Twitter or something. English not being my native language, is also need help to write it's description in a concise way.
If enough people would mind being part of this, or helping for visibility (like push for a front page article on xda, share with the other s10, s10e, s10+, note 10 forums...) That would be great. Not only for our devices, as power users but also, for future buyers since the gs11 will most likely have the same notch as the note 10 series.
Many thanks in advance !!
note 10 plus fullscreen immersive
Thanks much for posting this. I'm up to as well to get this done. I have done the immersive on other Samsung phones, s9 plus, note 9. Believe it or not this was the main reason I went on to upgrade to the this phone with the main purpose of doing the ADB Commands and get it full immersive but little did I know this is not possible with the note 10 plus. it's a disgrace that Noone seems to care about this
What apps specifically don't work with full screen. Everything I use is full screen and if not I change the aspect ratio on the app settings and it works fine.

It is definitely possible.
Search for "notch" module in Magisk.
Install it and then go to Settings-Developer-Notch -> select last one, no cutout.
Now immersive mode will actually be full screen. Problem is, right padding needs adjusting, otherwise the status bar icons will sit underneath the camera.
-----
It's not like samsung dev hasn't thought about it. But they went in the end with the lesser devil, disable the whole notch bar.
The main problem being that apps will not know to go around the camera. Nor have dynamic paddings for icons and buttons.
So for example with immersive mode on (full screen, no black bar) on all apps. You will notice that almost every app has the three dotted button, icon in the corner, which will be hidden under the camera. Samsung QC will never officially allow this.
Perhaps that's why Note10, S20 and the others, have the camera in the middle. Using immersive mode, will not cover much important info, so we might see it in the future on those phones.
But as it stands, S10 (or any corner cutout phone) will not display apps correctly, hence there will never be an official fix.
-----
Pro tip: Instead of enabling system-wide immersive mode and get frustrated in some apps, I remember there was a paid app, granular immersive, or something. Which allow you to enable full screen only on some apps.
But Magisk notch module has to be installed in any case.

TL;DR!!!
LOL jk man
if anything is going to get this done, itll have to be a device-wide system update that will be a major PITA for Samsung. I personally believe that not having this option is a literal mistake and to correct it, theyll have to admit that it was a f**k up from the get go. Im betting that "GoodLock" is going to be our best bet to get this accomplished as it is allowed root access from Samsung and its written by Samsung, so it can allow this "personal preference" that they should have built in in the first place.
Id bug the goodlock folks. Its probably your only hope

Is possible to achieve it Now. Download system UI tuner. Connect phone to laptop and execute adb commands to hide the navigation bar. Disconnect phone, go to galaxy store, download Good Lock, then open up the app then download multistar . Open multistar go to the last option to stretch The screen over the camera hole. Chose options to all.... Now go to system UI tuner and select hide navigation bar.... that's all
