Rotating lockscreen on my S10 - Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers

Hi everyone,
I never had that on my Samsung phones before, the lockscreen rotates in Landscape when the same way that does an app. This is also the case on the phone app which is very annoying.
How can I set to only keep the Lockscreen and Phone app to stay in Portrait mode ? I do not want to lock all the phone in Portrait but only these 2 screens which are useless (to me at least) in Landscape mode.
I checked forums, setting, everywhere, but nothing works... Can someone help me please ?
Thanks in advance !

You can use Bixby Routines to lock orientation to Portrait when Phone app is launched.
Interestingly, my phone doesn't auto rotate in lock screen.

Thanks abhichak93 !
Using Bixby Routine will not lock to portrait the lockscreen and honestly it is not normal I cannot lock it within the options.
Are you 100% sure it is not rotating on your side ? Me it is one week it started and it really annoices me !

Amazing, it worked!!!
Hi Xode, you made my day!!! I confirm that if you take the menu bar from the top twice (with all icons) you can click on the text (portrait or autorotation) and not the icon it will open the menu where you can remove the autorotation on the lockscreen. You really made my day as this was very disturbing! Thanks again! Sam

The HTC screensaver/screenlock program?

Hi Guys
A few days ago I was using one of Dutty's TouchFlo ROM's and it and some kind of screen saver/screen lock, to de-activate the lock you had to slide the bar at the bottom of the screen. The latest ROM doesn't seem to have this, so does anybody know what this application was called? and perhaps were I can get the cab?
Many Thanks
It's called S2U2 or slide2unloack and can be found here it's made by A_C
Awesome, thanks alot.

When you say black screen what you really mean when your device goes into suspend mode right?
•Go to your battery icon
•Select the Advance Tab
•From here change your settings
Done!

[Q] Screen mirrored/flipped problem

Has anyone experience the flipped screen?
it happens when the screen awake from sleep, but not all the time. I don't know what causing this, it seems to happen randomly, I tried different holding positions even upright when awaking the screen, it still flipped. Once it is flipped, either activate screen capture or reboot the phone will correct the problem.
anyone have idea what is happening on my phone? Screen capture files start piling up in my note's storage....
oh.... the touch on screen is also flipped as well; touch on the left side, appeared on the right....
my phone is flashed with rocket rom v22 and abyssnote v4.2
thanks in advance...

happens to me from time to time on LB1,
no need to reset though, usually it's enough to filp it few times and/or run any app which can use landscape mode
Check the sgs2 threads... I can't remember for sure,but think this results from a combination of certain tweaks in custom roms (fancy rotations and crt on or off, maybe?). I know it was discussed on Shoman's SHOstock thread in the ATT sgs2 subforum. Cut the right tweak off and it goes away forever.
EDIT: found the post...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23151916&postcount=2607
Thanks for the replies. Great to know that I am not alone. I use pattern lock to lock my phone, so flipping won't work at the lock screen. It get me really annoyed if I want to use the phone in a hurry.
Thanks for the sgs2 link, I will have a look and hopefully it will give me a cure.

Do you have CRT ON selected in JKay settings? Or have you enabled via some other workaround?
It is a well known cause of mirroring after turning the screen on and all you have to do to get rid of it is switch it off in JKay Deluxe settings.
Yes it was on before in the Jkay setting. I have turn it off now, hopefully no more mirror problem. Thanks

Happens occasionally since I've had jkay cart on enabled. Just swap to landscape and back, or restart. No permanent fix known, last I checked.
You need to disable CRT ON animation !!!!
CRT OFF animation is fine.

Correct... or disable/choose a ROM w/o fancy rotations... it is the combination of the two that causes the problem.

[Q] Home screen in landscape mode

Are there any good free apps to make the home screen rotate to landscape mode?
I've tried several apps, many of which don't work at all. I found 2 that actually work - Screen Rotation Control and Ultimate Rotation Control. However, SRC screws up the camera in some way when held in portrait mode, and URC is just a 7 day free trial.
E: Tried an app called "Set Orientation" as well - it works, but it has the same camera problem as SRC.
Some additional information: This is what it looks like when I'm trying to use the camera in portrait mode with Set Orientation or SRC:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Note the door "hanging from the ceiling". The picture has not been rotated. As you can see, the app is somehow forcing the camera to stay in landscape mode and I believe that is why it's all messed up in portrait mode. This doesn't happen with Ultimate Rotation Control - it does not affect the camera in any way and both portrait and landscape modes work perfectly.

If you have root, you can try editing SystemUI.apk (or something like that). I can't really tell what to do cuz I'm in a hurry right now, Might come back and try another reply later.

Yeah...
Use this Home launcher
XPERIA HOME 2.0.6b
- My number one - million options and extremely customisable.
Hide apps you aren't using, app drawer and home screen settings.....
Or this one - it is new version.
XPERIA HOME 3.0.0
- Pure and clean Home (Z1 and ZU version) with only screen orientation adjustment (what you need)

Brilliant, thank you! The screen rotation didn't work on the 3.0.0 version but everything is fine on 2.0.6b. It has a few more bells and whistles but thankfully they are all neatly arranged in the launcher's own app and don't get in the way

It's working on 3.0.0
Install it, open app drawer and slide from left to right.
Choose launcher settings and mark only option there and....voilà - it will rotate
And, yeah...it's great launcher, I love that options...

This app is amazing. Features predefined gesture paths (up, left, right etc.) and custom ones. It's one of my main reasons to root an Android device, just rocks:

Wallpaper zoomed in with Nova Launcher

Hi, it's not really a S10 related problem, but the Nova support isn't answering my E-Mail for a week so I wanted to ask here if there's any solution for this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

The wallpaper on Nova's home screen is getting zoomed in, no matter with which app I set it.
On the lockscreen of One UI it looks good.
It's both the same file in 3040x1440.
Wallpaper scrolling in Nova settings is disabled.
Is there any solution for this?
Nova stiil has support on Google+ until that goes away on April 2. Nova also has a Discord community where you can ask, https://discord.gg/sVg9j4J
That would be the best place to ask as this obviously isn't an S10 question.
I talked with the Nova support and they said that this is a Samsung issue and they're not able to fix this at the moment.
Samsung did some changes with the S10 and One UI and it seems that nobody know what they did exactly.
I'm wondering that I'm the only one who noticed this.
Try to add 2 or 3 homescreen and delete them...
One thing I noticed was that you can pinch to zoom while setting the wallpaper in Nova. Had one paper get applied zoomed and that was the reason, accidentally zoomed it myself. Otherwise, it doesn't appear to be doing any automatic zooming of my wallpapers.

Did you compare it when you set the exact same wallpaper for lockscreen and homescreen?
With some images this may not be easy to see but I tried different images and everytime it's zoomed in.
I also tried to zoom out on wallpaper selecting, but it is completely zoomed out. I can see the difference immediately when I set the wallpaper.
The Nova developers are sitting there with S10 and S10+ and can reproduce this issue and don't even have a clue why this is a thing on those devices.
Hi -
To solve this issue, swithc back to your Samsung ONe ui launcher, then set the wallpaper you would like UNTICK the motion effect box, and then switch back to novalauncher, it should be fixed!
