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...
Hi all,
I have a Xperia Z and a charging dock, the DK26. Everything works fine, except for one thing.
When I put my phone in the dock it automatically switches to landscape mode, thats fine. Because my homescreen is also switching to landscape. Only my lockscreen doesn't switch to landscape, it stays in portrait mode.
I've seen it happen a few times, when I put my phone in the dock, the lockscreen switches to landscape mode and switches back immediately.
Is there a way to fix this? Or is it just another bug from Sony?
Thanks in advance,
LTKort

I never seen my lockscreen in landscape when docked. At least no the Sony stock one.
So I guess it's a bug. I remember reading someone posted that if you reboot the device while docked, the lockscreen will be landscaped. Haven't tried.
Lock screen should be in portrait. To enable landscape lockscreen, you need to edit your build.prop file.

Do you have any more details on this fix?
Has anyone tried one of the available apps from the Play store?
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'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)
I have the x520 with which I have some problems with the screen rotation.
When the automatic rotation mode is activated any application opens in landscape mode. I have been reinstalled many times rom but this problem persists.Have you met this problem? Thank you.
