Hi guys,
it might sound stupid and not worthy for this forum but it's very annoying. Ever since i updated my tablet's firmware to android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean (P.M for more info) I cannot stop the screen from rotating. You know when you wanna have a nice lie down with your tablet but the screen doesn't and it keeps turning into portrait position? Want to lock it in landsape ? I can't . I open the 'scroll down notification centre' and turn off the screen rotation.
The setting changes in settings screen, yes, but the screen still changes! please help me as I'm getting an overdose of this annoyance. How do i fix this?
Thanks for all help,
Whats-a-username?

Hello everyone,
I just started using CM 10.1 on SD card. Is there any way to stop the lock screen from rotating? I cannot seem to find an image that does not get distorted (stretched) when in landscape mode.
Thanks,
V

Don't know of a setting for lock screen only, but if you toggle screen rotation off, the lockscreen will not rotate either.

I hadn't thought of that, Thanks.
The thing is in regular use I rotate the screen lots.
Oh well life is imperfect.

this is probably a dumb question but how do i get the screen to rotate 180 degrees in paranoid android 3.15 or 3.99. i know iv had it with this rom before. basically i want the screen to turn any way i pick it up in an app like maps. thanks
btw my screen isint rotating at all right now. i have apex launcher but cant find the setting either.
edit: i found auto rotate in apex launcher but it still doesn't register my phone turning even into landscape mode. let alone upside down

Stupid solution, but did you check if screen rotation is enabled in Settings> Display?
I got the 4.4 update via my S4, and now whenever i set a live wallpaper for both home and lock screen, the lock screen becomes the same it was on the s2 with the same lock sound and the lock icon thing when you swipe the screen (no light effect or sound). Is this a bug or is it the way it's supposed to be for kitkat?
It only happens when i set a live wallpaper for the lock screen, when i set a normal wallpaper the lock screen remains the way it should be with the light effect and sound.
Could i please get some help, some sort of answer please, i'd really appreciate it :crying:

I have I9500 n I get the light/ripple effect for lockscreen with sound. I guess they ll include it in stable updates. Try using the one of the default wallpapers and then the ripple/light effects. It might work. All the best.
Hi all
I'm currently running ofw with nova prime and can view everything in landscape apart from the lock screen.
How can I rotate the lock screen so it'll also show it in landscape mode as well as portrait?
Try this

Cheers for that it works but I have another problem now.
I have 'pattern' as my security but the lock screen now only shows 6 of the nine dots.
Anyway to reduce the pattern size to fit in landscape
Nothing that I know of, maybe by editing system files, but I don't know
Maybe switch to a different security for now, make a thread asking that question, a dev may know the answer
So I factory reset my phone to improve it. I have a few issues going on but the biggest is that my lock screen moves outwards whenever I am on the lock screen. I have tried to disable wallpaper motion but I do not even have that option in wallpaper settings. I uninstalled Live Wallpaper with Kingroot but that did not help me at all. I have already unrooted my phone so any non-root fixes I would highly appreciate. I just want the wallpaper to stop moving! Thank you so much in advance for any help!
My phone is a Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime running on Android 5.1.1.

It's kind of hard to explain. Like when I am on my phones lock screen it is like my wallpaper is zoomed in, and then it will move (like zoom out) to the normal size I set it as. This does not happen on my home screen, just the lock screen.
