Virtuous's doubleshot ROM let's you toggle between landscape and portrait mode on your homescreen, is there any way to lock it into landscape mode without downloading a new launcher?

Yes. Never turn your phone rightside up.
EDIT: My wife said that sounded mean. I want to make sure you know it wasn't intended to be.

hi, im perm rooted with s=off and a clockwork recovery, when ever i default a launcher with the app "home switcher" it never sticks. i was wondering if anyone else has the same problem
Home switcher says right in the download that it doesn't work with Froyo... however, it does work with some ROMS better than others as I've been playing with on my Evo for about 4 months. Sometimes it acts just like you describe. Sometimes it lets me actually stick with a default. Blame the author... he isn't updating it.
Oh wow thanks I didn't even see that lol but yeah I switched to homeshack and it works!

Actually, it does work with Froyo even though it says that in the Market (that's probably the official line, so we can't ***** about it). If you read comments & online there are plenty confirmed working w/Froyo.
I had it on my MT4G and it worked fine until I permrooted w/S=OFF. Now any time the phone restarts I have to choose the default launcher again.
So, OP is correct, but since it's officially not supported... Glad you found an alternative.
oops didnt refresh page before posting
Fyi, I've tried Home Manager and it doesn't stick either.

Home Switcher has an app made for Froyo (HomeSwitcher for Froyo) I use it and it works very good. There is an added step to take before it sticks but it never fails.
Why do you need a home switcher? Its not hard to change defaults through your settings.

So I rooted today.
I installed Rom Manager and was going to flash the segmented battery mod onto my stock rom.
I run Rom Manager...boot into recovery...it gives me the usual options...i choose to install from zip on sd...and then it goes to black screen and just sits.
I pull the battery and try it again...now this time trying to clear cache...same thing...black screen and just sits.
Does anyone know what's happening with it? And what should I do?

Don't. Alot of us coming from the n1 was doing that.
I used stay awake while charging while my phone plays music all night at work. No Vibrant rom I've tried has the option. On my G2 and every other phone I've had in the debugging options there was an option to stay awake while charging... any way to get that on the Vibrant?

Sorry guess this should've gone in q&a

Probably because you'll burn your screen in with this option. I wouldn't recommend it.
There's such an option on Vibrant, Can't recall where I found it though.
Settings>Applications>Development>Stay Awake
Im on the latest Trigger, but I know for a fact its been there since I bought my Vibrant.

All I have is enable debugging and allow mock locations. Time for new rom I imagine.

The option isn't in a stock Rom. And I'm not sure how wide spread it is on custom roms either, but bionix has it.

I would try wiping and re-flashing the ROM from recovery. If that doesn't work, try wiping rotate stats from recovery.
Which launcher are you using?
If you are using ADW I think there is a setting in the ADW settings that is something like System Persistent. If that is checked the phone wont rotate.
Can't remember for sure but I would have a look.

He can check but normally that option doesn't stop the phone from rotating inside apps.

I think that perhaps you have more important issues to deal with instead of the orientation for your device. If you keep posting threads in such a manner people won't take you seriously. Like myself. Good luck to you.
Every time I click home, I get the loading and the screen takes a minute to load up. Its not too long, but its annoying enoug. Does anyone have a solution? Thanx

Get rid of Sense launcher. Use LauncherPro, ADW or GoLauncher.

Sounds like maybe your out of memory? Try clearing up some apps

I'm on CM7 so I don't have Sense anymore. When I did I would get that loading screen frequently. Not sure about the Desire port fixing it but if you haven't tried it yet and like Sense then you should def give it a try.

I just flashed desire z rom, the problem is gone. I am glad because I love sense, and its got lots of compatibility and skins and bhtc account. Its amazing but stock is still bad

That's not really a solution.
I never had that happen, ever, on any sense rom. Sounds like there is a lot going on in the background.

I disagree it's not a solution, it is a possible solution. It's a round about way of saying that the launcher itself is slow loading, and that a different launcher will alleviate the problem.
You're assuming the launcher is slow loading for other reasons then that it just is. It certainly won't hurt to try a different launcher and see if that fixes the issue the OP has.
I am an app dev, not a hacker but i noticed between dz software and shift software, the same loading screen happens whenever you change themes. So many htc took a shorcut and made the launcher occasionally reload the sense "theme" i would not know how to fix this in the stock roms but, thats information i do have.

Could be that you just have too many widgets on your homescreen that it reloads every time you press home.
