Hello,
I was wondering myself if its possible the run the dell streak forced to portrait mode. Do you know any possibility to do that? When you turn off autorotation, the streak is always in landscape...
Thank you very much and sorry for my bad english,
Mehmet

Use adw.launcher and select persistant mode.

I use the latest ADW Launcher EX with StreakDroid 1.8.1 and the "Only Portrait" mode doesn't work. It stays in landscape mode when enabled.
ADW Launcher bug?
And is it possible to put the whole Streak (not only ADW) in portrait mode?
On 1.8.1 I could do it ONLY with LauncherPro. Both built-in launcher and ADW don`t rotate to Portrait.
ADW Launcher EX does it, but only when set to "Auto Rotate" ... Not in "only portrait" ...
Use "go launcher ex" and uncheck rotation, it works fine for me
I don't wanna use another launcher.

does the streak remain ALWAYS, with all applications, in portrait mode?
No, of course not. It is just for launcher, not for the whole system.
I too want to use my Dell portrait only. I tried landscape, but the system just don't use it, I mean it will be useful if for example messages looks like on iPad (on left list of messages, on right preview), but how it is right now, you just see less information with landscape. Plus holding it with one hand in landscape is bit hazard for me (in public transport). I hope somebody will find solution.
And, no, really, unchecking the automatic rotation of screen when having it in portrait doesn't work. It works with other Android devices but not for Dell Streak (for no reason).
Hi,
I've been seeing the forum threads for portrait mode on the Dell Streak but all have just options for the launcher reorientation.
I have currently locked the system to landscape only since its extremely bothersome when the system is on auto rotate and it rotates by 180 degrees. However even with this, there are apps like Astrid tasks, etc which have some of their screens in portrait - which is a bit irritating...
With the landscape mode its not possible to try an operate the device with one hand. In the portrait mode it is a bit more easier to reach with the thumb across the screen to the opposite side corners and by sliding the hand down the entire screen can be accessed with a single hand when you have to.
Is there some mode where the full system can be made completely in portrait? Of course its understandable that select apps like Klondike, etc will run only on their default landscape mode but is there nothing that can be done for the rest of the system? Something that can probably just be included as a command in the install.txt file for Streakdroid packages perhaps?
I run Streakdroid 1.9.0 and love the new Stage UI. Not particularly impressed with ADW or LauncherPro.
Thanks in advance.
The home screens on my dhd do not rotate when I have my phone on its side. It dose work when using apps but not on the home screens, is this correct?

Yep, that's normal.
Sense on DHD does not support landscape mode. If you want landscape try an homescreen alternative like ADW or LauncherPro.
Or you can flash Coredroid Mod in his thread.
I have customized my nc's 5 homescreens to look good on both landscape and portrait mode. Only problem is the pulse widget on my 'feeds' homescreen. It looks okay on portrait mode, but its just crap in landscape. When you adjust the size on landscape, portrait mode will look messed up. Any ideas guys?

I think Widget Locker enables one to adjust widget Icons??
I see all these screenshots of nook colors in landscape mode witch is my preferred view. I wasnt able to find a landscape view lock function in launcher pro plus.. Is there a way to lock the home screen orientation on the home screen?

Can anybody tell me a landscape rotation app that is compatible with the note 3 touchwiz. Because in home screen when in forced landscape mode using apps from playstore, the proportion is bugged.

Oh thank gawd! I'm not the only one! I too am having this issue (tmus) and posted that question today there:

Basically I was using "Ultimate Rotation Control" and it works great on all my previous galaxies but on the Note 3 it looks like the icon and widgets are trying to stay in a forced portrait mode. However my background image looks fine, go figure.
However you can change your launcher to GoLauncher and that should work for you just fine. I prefer GoLauncher myself because it has a calendar widget that none of the other launchers seem to have.
Hopefully the makers of URC fix their app because its not working now.
Not to my knowledge.
If you change to Apex, Nova or another launcher, though, you'll have that as an option amongst plenty of others... Not to mention less resource usages.
