LauncherPro Rotation Problem

Anyone use LauncherPro? There appears to be a bug in the newest version which, if you opt to turn off auto rotation on the home screen, then it won't rotate even when u slide they keyboard out. Wondering if anyone else is experiancing this? My temp fix is switching back to the previous version but this is not something I want to continue doing if later versions still have this bug.

Just checked and I've got the same problem. Personally, I prefer to have auto rotation on so itns not really a problem for me. It should definitely be fixed, though.

Discovered just now that if you go into menu-> settings->screen and remove the mark at Autorotate it works as intended. Launcher Pro is set to autorotate.
Hope it helps

Currently using launcher products with cm7 and I don't have a problem with the rotation as indicated above.

I'd rather have all my apps, etc auto rotate, but would rather LauncherPro only rotates when I open the keyboard because sometimes I accidently hold it at an angle or something and it gets annoying. Also, when I turn the device and push the camera button it slows it down slightly if it has to rotate first. The latest version of LauncherPro seems to be the only one with this issue.

I also was having this problem with my Motorola Droid and whpsnp's suggestion worked.
Menu -> Settings -> Display - > Auto-rotate screen is unchecked
Menu -> Preferences -> Behavior Settings -> Enable Auto-rotation is checked
This way the screen only rotates when the slider is open.
But then doesn't this stop other apps from auto rotating?

I just checked my Facebook app and it rotates to landscape when the slider is open, so it seems it doesn't affect that functionality. Not sure about other apps
I want other apps to auto rotate when I turn the screen. But I want launcherpro to only rotate when I open the keyboard. The newest launcherpro doesn't do this.

Stock homescreen in landscape?

I was wondering if there was a way to force landscape mode in the gingerbread motoblur home, I've seen it happen by mistake for a second but I'm wondering if there is a way for it to have rotation.
PS: I am very aware of Launcher Pro and etc.
Because one signature isn't enough.
There is a mod out there that will do the job. I can't link to it, but with some searching you should be able to find it.

Google Maps - landscape mode?

I've just come from the Galaxy Nexus with official car dock which automatically turned everything, including the main launcher, landscape.
When I do normal drives I like to have maps on (not navigation) with traffic layers on and Latitude, I know this also helps Google with traffic info
however now I'm on the Nexus 4 I've noticed that maps won't go in to landscape mode, is there a way to get this to work?
(rooted, running Modaco 4.2.1 ROM)
Is screen rotation enabled?
it is, yeah
Weird. Is the screen rotation working on other applications?
Reboot

Enable landscape home screen rotation (Charging Dock)

I don't know if this had been posted, but if you own the Xperia Z charging dock you can enable landscape home screen rotation
turn off the phone and then dock the phone (in off mode).
After the charging icon appears, just power up the phone while its in the dock. Once the phone is powered up, just remove it from the dock and you should be able to rotate the home screen.
But, what's the point?

different strokes for different folks you know...
I like to use the phone in landscape on my desk without the dock and if you're in an app that is in landscape, e.g. a movie, you don't have to flip the screen back to portrait when you have to goto the home screen.
Really smart trick

Or just use Rotation Control from the play store ...
Hi,
can you please help me finding the tool which will force ALL applications work in landscape mode? Ie when my phone is in dock and i am using phone app - it is getting back to portrait mode when placing the call.
Thanks in advance!

Is there a way to fool the phone into thinking it's docked I much prefer landscape

I can already do this permanently with an app in the drop down notification menu, I can select landscape and it'll force landscape for everything but I get a native result. Works for everything except for portrait apps, and vice versa. This works on the lockscreen too.

What i found is rotation locker - works as expected. The only issue is with screen locker (pattern).

I've changed the dpi in build prop to 320 and auto rotate is automatically activated, I set font too large and I quite like this dpi,. Now if there was a way to make widgets bigger. Screen shots attached.

I'm talking about Screen Orientation Control on the Google Play Store.
This is what it looks like, hopefully it works.
Not sure what happened to the screen resolution is it some random imgur compression thing?
Thanks for the link for the app. Now I can control the orientation whenever I just want it to change.
Re: All above posts
Hey people,
I think you guys might be interested in the app called "Rotation Anywhere".
This is exactly the app all of you above are looking for.
And the best part "it's free". !!! :good:

portrait/left rotate

I just got the new galaxy note along with a Samsung cover. I plan on using the tablet for reading (along with other things) . I can't seem to get the screen to rotate to the left to portrait mode in some apps like the Kindle app. It will rotate to the right but with the cover it feels unnatural not to mention the buttons end up on the left making it easy to accidently hit them while holding the tablet. How do I get it to rotate to the left in the Kindle app?
Try GMD autorotate app. I can set it to rotate into any directions I want and I also has per app rotation settings.
