I've turned off the navigation bar and enabled the stock gestures, as well as the One Hand Operation+ gestures. However, when I'm in landscape mode and playing a movie or a YouTube video, I can't get any of them to work. I pretty much have to exit playback through the menu or something like that to get back to portrait mode. Am I missing something, or is that just how it is?
If they're the stock gestures then they will always be located where the buttons would have been

That's what I thought, but I couldn't get them to work at all in landscape mode. I also thought One Hand Gestures+ would work if I enabled landscape mode, but couldn't get any gestures of any kind to trigger from any edge when I was in YouTube or Prime Video.

my device wont come out of landscape after i close the keyboard... any ideas?
sorry, went to the screen control panel and selected "portrait" from the options... weird that it would revert to landscape like that though. after i selected portrait, it functions properly (so far) when the keyboard slides out
Pl. help how to rotate 90 deg. (clock wise)
do you mean to rotate in each 90° step (not just portrait and landscape, but also the other two remaining sides)?
I think he means can you get the Hero to go to landscape mode by turning it clockwise from portrait mode.
As far as I can tell, this isn't possible. It only switches to landscape when rotate it anti-clockwise from portrait view
I've wanted to do this few times, but as mentioned, there are only two modes for rotation, not four. If I would be left-handed I might be seriously bothered, but for right-handed it feels comfortable to operate the buttons with right thumb.
Not that you need the buttons _that_ much, mainly just back button when using browser in landscape mode.
I was thinking about what it's like for lefties earlier today and I'm not sure it's that bad (please correct me if I'm wrong!). At least they would be able to use the device in their left hand in portrait mode and be able to press the Back button without getting cramp!
Well... there's apps that will let you rotate the app in all four sides... for example Bubble http://www.cyrket.com/package/bz.ktk.bubble will switch the view 180 if you put the phone upside down... so it's up to the developers to program it.

yup you r right... portrait with buttons at the lef handed side..
I want to use the phone mainly in landscape mode for a change. Is there any means to set it by default? That means, that it has to stay in landscape when I close a game, for instance, and when I slide back the keyboard (atm it turns portrait in both cases).
It was discussed several times, AFAIK there is no solution.
shame.. thanks for your answer.
Just assign a hw key to rotate the screen so you can force the phone to landscape whenever it goes to portrait.
True, it's not what you wanted, but it's the closest thing we got.
Does the Droid Turbo has some kind of options to disable the capacitive buttons and enable the on screen navbar instead? Like the OnePlus One let's you do from the settings without rooting?
If not, would any of you know if the capacitive buttons are temporarily disabled while in Immersive Mode? (example, watching videos on youtube)

It does not have the option to disable the capacitive buttons and enable a navbar, nor does it disable the buttons while in immersive mode.

The app Lux (paid version) will do what you want! I use it to turn off the capacitive buttoms when watching movies or just don't want to be distracted by the buttons (I already know where they are!). Great app. Worth every penny! Should be part of any phone that uses capacitive buttons.
Hi, got my T5 recently and met with some strange and annoying problems with regards to orientation/rotation with apps such as Tradingview and Investing.com, which somehow insists the bottom side of the portrait mode be the side where the power button is located. Though I doubt the problem is with the apps. Anyone saw the same and have any solution/suggestions? Thanks in advance.
Homescreen rotation stuck on portrait mode.
Had a problem with the homescreen which stuck at portrait mode even the auto-rotate function was turned on (blue in task bar and on in screen settings). Was really annoying, suddenly all other apps rotate but not the home screen ?
Found out there is a dedicated setting for the home screen, hold your finger on the homescreen background for a couple of seconds and the screen will give you access to widgets, wallpapers and a setting button which leads to another homescreen setting which also have a auto-rotate switch. That was somehow turned off in my case. After switching it back on it works again. Apps and Homescreen rotation fixed.
