People say you can not type in landscape then say you can on tapatalk,gmail....
Explain me? You can or you can not?
By default you cannot. Once you unlock rotation via the icon in the notification bar, you can.
... however I personally prefer typing in portrait mode. Just saing.

Got a US T-Mobile HD2, and I just enabled rotation again. I don't know why it was disabled in the first place. Maybe, it is because not all programs can be used in landscape mode (though they should be).
What are some good programs that can be used in both modes? TCPMP apparently can't do landscape. Where can I find some skins for Windows Media Player?
This is off topic, but does Android support Landscape mode?
Android does support landscape, three are several devices with slide out keyboard. Program wise, most WM should support bot landscape and portrait
I wish wm apps would have thinner status bars. for example the one that Adobe reader uses is huge. wm top bar, bottom bar and app's own bar. thats a lot of space used up.
how did u enable landscape mode, did you use registry tweak(s) or any programs?

You can install Bsbtweaks.
i used bsbtweaks on my tmobile hd2 and get the clock only on the left side and a black bar to the right. aceo07, is your rom stock?
To start, i have CM7 n176 installed on my Nook Color.
I like it so far but one thing I noticed is the lack of a "proper" rotation lock. I put proper in quotes because i am aware of the rotation lock that android has. The problem I have is that while I'm in landscape mode and want to lock it in landscape, i have to completely disable rotation to portrait in the menus. The rotation lock that android has (i have added it to the notification bar) automatically rotates back to portrait when enabled. Is there anyway to make the rotation lock in the notification bar function like the rotation lock on the iPad?
Could check out my thread on the agile lock free mod in themes. It will take you to my Dinc thread, and it has rotation in the menu.
I've enabled home screen rotation and true tablet UI as per http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1800042
However I haven't found a solution to lock the screen in landscape mode. I've tried several apps and widgets that claim to do that but none work on the N7. All they do is force the screen in portrait mode.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Maybe this will help..
Have home screen set to autorotate, then set your tablet to be autorotate on top via notification dropdown. Then put tablet in landscape mode by holding it that way. While its in landscape mode do to the notification bar (dropdown) and lock the rotation. It should stay landscape.
Great, that works. I hadn't thought to dig among the settings in the popup menu.
Hi, is it possible to make Gboard in landscape mode more narrow and centered like in iOS? It quite helps a lot with typing... Look at picture to see what I mean.
Thanks for answer.
99% of the time, I hold my phone in landscape orientation; especially now that the Android OS natively supports a landscape desktop. I'd like to hide the navigation panel and just use edge gestures.
So... which edge gestures app fully supports landscape mode on the Android desktop? It looks like some apps don't even consider people use landscape on devices with large displays. In fact, I'm not even sure if Android Pie 9 will natively support edge gestures while holding the phone in landscape mode.
Thanks in advance for anyone that can answer my question!
Edit: Is there a better sub-forum on XDA to ask this question? It seems like this question would apply to any phone with a screen large enough to view Android landscape desktop comfortably.

Thank you. for responding! I needed to manually enable landscape support under Advanced settings for this app! I really appreciate your suggestion!
