[Q] Default Screen Orientation - Kindle Fire General

Is there a way to change the default screen orientation on CM7? I would like the cables to be on the top so I can stand the device on end for non-landscape apps like spotify.

Not that I know of using the stock lockscreen, but Widget Locker works. You do have to pay for that though, but it is a great lockscreen.

Make sure that Auto-Rotate Screen is set in Preferences -> Behavior

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.

Is there anyway to make the lock screen rotatable?

I'd like to know if this is possible too.
Set Orientation https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.googlecode.eyesfree.setorientation
Pull down the notification bar and press the screen with spinning arrows icon, it will change to a padlock once it's pressed.
I have my DPI set to 160 which puts it in tablet mode, and still the lockscreen is only in portrait. I don't want an app that locks the orientation because I'm still about 50/50 on using portrait and landscape.

The Set Orientation app lets you set it to auto, the lockscreen will rotate with the tablet.
This does work. However I use widgetsoid in the notifications drawer, and with screen krien. enabled, I can't adjust brightness. Just and fyi, but figured someone else must use this combo as well. The screen orien. also makes some apps tough to use in landscape, such as songza.

if you have root, add this to your build.prop file in /system/build.prop/ and reboot.. launcher.force_enable_rotation=true

You could also flash a ROM like Paranoid Android which gives you control over what interface each app uses like phone, phablet, and tablet. This is probably not the solution you were looking for, but you did say any way to make the lock screen rotatable.

Working great, thanks. Is there a way to hide the icon in the notification bar?

Tap and hold the notification, go to App Info and uncheck "Show notifications"

Thanks for the info, but after some days I have uninstalled the app as it has been the reason for short screen-freezes every x seconds which was kind of annoying.
CM10 supports lock screen rotation.

Ultimate Rotation Control.
I use Ultimate Rotation Control. It rotates everything, including the lockscreen, & has different settings.

[Q] PA ROM - Drop Down Menu Question

So I had a ROMd Moto Atrix 2, and moved into this N4 a couple days ago. On the A2, when I pulled the drop down menu down from the top, I had the Wifi On/Off, GPS On/Off, Data On/Off, Vibrate/Ringer On/Off, Bluetooth, etc.
Is there a setting somewhere in Paranoid Android ROM that allows me to add these features?

Hey i was googling for my answer and this thread came up that's why i'm replying so late.
But if you can help me i'd love it.
I just installed PA and gapps.
It works fine and all but I can't get the quick pull down menu at the top to show up.
I can bring it up using pie but I really want to have the toolbar at the top too displaying battery life time and notifications.
Is there anyway to do that?
I have "quick pulldown" selected in the settings menu but i don't think it works.
