Auto-rotate lock screen? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I'm wanting to auto rotate my N4's lockscreen but I so no native way to do this (Stock rom). Is there a setting I'm missing for this, or is there a setting I can write to a file?
I know Ultimate Rotation Control allows it but I'm looking for a way with doesn't require an app.
Thanks.

You can do that and much more with Gravity Box module for Xposed Framework. Check my signature. It's an app, but it doesn't run in the background.

[Q] Fine rotation options

I'll try to make this simple:
I would like to have rotation options like Cyanongen Mod but slightly more specific:
• Auto rotate 0*, 90*, 270* (easily done in CM)
• ALSO rotate the lockscreen the same manner (CM's settings don't allow for this)
I've tried Ultimate Rotate but it's ultimately (ha) not able to disallow 180*.
Any ideas?

try some other apps? i'm using the free "adaptive rotation lock" and it has lots of options, don't know about the lockscreen though.
Why would I clutter up a CM dev thread? No. It's not a CM specific question.
Wondering if anyone would have the expertise to know if this would work:

I'm using ultimate rotate with tasker but it's still not quite right. I'll check out the app you mentioned.

Anyone know how to lock rotation and still have camera rotate?

Here's the thing, I never use my phone in landscape so I prefer to have it locked from rotating . What happens is that sometimes I need to take a quick picture either through the camera app or whatsapp and I always forget to have to take off rotation. So I was wondering if there's a way to set it up somehow so the camera isn't affected by the rotation lock. Maybe a modded camera apk or something?
I just disabled rotation completely. Then I use tasker to enable it for only certain apps where I prefer to have rotation enabled.

1+ for Tasker here too. You can set it to detect when a specific app is launched and it'll change settings according to your desires.

Multiwindow on any AOSP/CM rom [Xposed][Working]

Warning : Do not install this if you're running art on 4.4 (xposed works only with dalvik) or any other rom with multiwindow framework built in like mokee.
Here's a guide to XhaloFloatingWindow Xposed module :
Firstly basic installation Guide and Original thread
After following the guide, you will be able to launch notifications in floating window like halo, but you'll need a secondary launcher like floating notifications or bubble launcher to launch apps in floating mode.
But to get true multi window(not just halo like behaviour), do the following in xHaloFloatingWindow app.
In popup behaviour:
1) App pausing is off.
2) disable auto close checked.
3)force new windows in halo checked
4) show app in recents checked (this one's your choice)
In movable and resize :
1) turn on movable and resize
2)in titlebar settings, enable title bar.
3)in moving settings, enable all.
4)in resizing settings, nothing is on.
5) in system ui mods, prevent moving home to the front is checked, rest is off.
And the result is .....drum roll.... multi window like behaviour.
See screen shots attached
Feel free to experiment and post your results. I'm on Cm11 by CodyF86.
P.S : for some reason, opening more than one app on home screen causes the new app to hide previous app. I just open a random app, like contacts app and now opening new apps wont hide previous apps.

im not able to get that
Also take care that if you have inbuilt halo or omni multiwindow. ....
Don't follow this method results may Uneven as per developr. .....
Only it suits for simple roms without halo or omni multiwindow. ...
You can use SensonicHD rom it has in built unlimited floating multiwindow. ...you may refer bellow.... ...

I love it! it's great for tablets, but I guess it's still pretty new? some apps don't function so well with it.You said something about bubble launcher and floating notifications. I've tried bubble launcher and didn't see the difference. Maybe I've configured it wrong?
Thanks for posting!:good:

Best (Working) Xposed Modules for S8?

Hi all,
I'm running the PartCyborgRom-AQK3 ROM, and I have Xposed working. I couldn't find such a post, but I am wondering what modules are working for everyone with an S8? I know a lot of the modules are for AOSP and a lot are not for Nougat.
I tried BootManager, and unless I disabled too many things or something that I shouldn't have, enabling this one causes a bootloop.
Other than that, I currently have Firefds Kit, GravityBox, and XNotifications enabled.
Features I am still looking for are:
Disable High Brightness warning.
Remove Carrier from Statusbar
Remove AM/PM from stausbar clock. I've found this option but it usually adds a 2nd AM/PM.
At some point, I installed something that added "Outdoor Mode" to the Notification Toggles brightness settings. I can't remember what added this, but I'd like it back!
Did you find a solution for carrier label?

status and system ui tuner are no root apps and can do most of what you want
I use firefds for call record button..I just remove the clock from bar totally as I use a weather and clock widget all the time 3d flip clock and such.
