Ice home screen rotation - Nexus S General

Hi
I know some earlier ICS roms had home screen and app drawers that rotated. Do you guys know if that has to be built into the roms or is there something I can download to incorporate this feature? Thanks and have a merry Christmas!

I have the same problem here. I can't rotate the screen.

stock ics homescreen/launcher doesnt auto-rotate. the cm9 launcher does.

Oic. Thanks. Can I just pull the launcher and use it in another rom?

Nova launcher also provides this functionality.

Hi, I can't figure out how to get the home screen as landscape using either paranoid ROM or cookies and cream. Can anyone help me out please. Unfortunately search did not help.

Nexus 7 Won't go back to portrait mode...

Hi,
I need help, I updated to the most recent 4.1.2? i believe. whatever is the most recent build. I updated it last week and today..I can't change it back to portrait mode. It's just in landscape. I unlocked the screen lock and I restarted my device multiple times, but it's always landscape..
Is t just the home screen or the entire device?
Home screen..

Some launchers, e.g. Apex, have settings to force a given orientation. Does your launcher have that feature set?

[Q] Any way to get tablet ui?

Ib seen you can get tablet ui on the nexus 7, ib look around for like mod for the navbar so its like tablet ui but no luck.
Does anyone has a way i might have missed to move the navbar to the side?
Its not comfortable where the home button is located in a big tablet like this one :\

If you're up to flashing a ROM, try paranoidandroid. They've brought back tab ui and also allow you to set the ui and DPI for each app independently.

FWIW... I'm on Thundercat from 12/27/2013 and it has a Nav Bar Left/Right/Center option. The ROM performs perfectly for me, too.

[Q] nav bar transparency?

Is there a way to change the transparency of the nav bar at the bottom?

I'm not sure but I think some custom ROMs include this.
It's been a while since I used those ROMs but I think parandroid includes that feature

AOKP offers this option.

Really trying to stay with the rom I'm on. I was able to change the soft keys manually and was hoping there would also be a manual way to do this.

Yes there is but only in the settings like baked6.zip in ROM control under navbar settings scroll down till you see transparency you should try that ROM its awesome check out team baked for the latest rom

Welcome to XDA! Best way and stay stock is to use an alternate launcher...search Play for Nova and Apex Launchers.
