Do you mean the home screen? If yes, you would need to put it in tablet ui to have it landscape.

Stock launcher doesn't rotate at this time.

Yes, you are missing the hundred or so other threads about this.
The home screen does not rotate unless you use a different launcher or an app like rotation locker.

Default Keyboard orientation Problem

Guys is there any way I can disable the orientation sensors of my phone so that it remains in portrait mode during the general use, but as soon as I type in a text entering field the keyboard which comes up is in landscape mode??
I only want the keyboard to be in landscape mode by default whilst the rest of the phone operates in normal portrait mode...
I miss this functionality from my old symbian phone.. Please someone direct me..
Any help will be greatly appreciated..thanks

Ain't it funny that a stupid low end symbian phone can do this and android can't?

Once you unlock auto rotation it should just work...

is there a ROM or launcher that looks like tablet mode on landscape? but then looks like phone mode on portrait?
i've tried Paranoid Android, and it puts tablet mode in both orientations.

Paranoid Android hybrid mode in only landscape

Is there a way/option to activate hybrid mode in only landscape and keep stock phone UI in portrait mode?
