So we all know the Nexus 4 camera rotates the ENTIRE screen (not just the button orientation) when you go from portrait to landscape. Well, I installed widgetsoid so I can have a custom notification bar widget, a flashlight on the homescreen, and the ability to disable the rotation sensor. Well, on 4.2.2 stock, if the rotation sensor is disabled and you open the camera, the screen won't rotate, but the pictures will be right side up at any orientation!
TL;DR. Disable screen rotation, take a picture. No more screen rotation delay.

I have been looking for an app that will lock my orientation sideways. Any suggestions. I have searched and all I can find is a widget to turn off screen orientation,and doin that makes the screen stay in regular position.
Hello.
I am looking for an app,that will have a customized list of apps,activating them will the screen rotate to landscape orientation automaticly(default is in portrait).
Example:
I start Office(Spreadsheet app) and I want it to automaticaly rotate to landscape. If I close it or switch to something else(of course,that's not in the list),it should rotate to portrait,after returning to this app it should again switch to landscape. Exactly,as iReader does,which has this feature included,but with all apps in configurable list.
I hate the automatic rotation depending on the sensor,so I want to do it this way or maybe manually.
Thanks for your tips in advance.
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.
I would like to be able to rotate my home screens and lock screen to landscape mode. I've tried Ultimate Rotation Control, but it squishes my clock/weather widget, cuts off 1 of the 5 apps in the system tray and displays only half of the lock screen image.
So, how can I get true rotation of the home and lock screens while scaling widgets and lock screen image properly? I'm not rooted if that matters. Is there am app or maybe a replacement launcher that works this way?
Thanks.
