Lock screen in landscape? - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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

Program to refresh today screen on screen flip

Is there a program that can refresh the today screen when the screen orientation is brought back to Portrait from Landscape? My today screen doesn't fit in landscape mode, and when my phone is put back into portrait, there's an ugly scroll bar that lives for a second then disappears, but leaves a big void where the edge of my today plugins should be. I find that if I refresh the today screen by going into the Today screen settings and out again, the void goes away and my screen is once again whole.
Can this be done?
todayrefreshcmd.
How would I have this run on screen rotation?
seems pretty easy to write up in mortscript, but i have no idea how. Firstly, TodayRefreshCmd is somewhere on these forums, go grab it. then maybe have a mortscript constantly running to check when you rotate the screen? i'm not sure.

[Q] Rotation lock on Nook color

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.

4.4 Lock screen with live wallpaper

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.

[help] my lock screen wallpaper won't stop moving? Please help me if you can.

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.

Question: S8 Lock screen and Touchwiz Screen Rotation

Was just wondering when charging on the stand, when i lay the phone vertically the contents from aod, to lock screen and touchwiz are all vertical.
So just think if i could possibly customize it so that it becomes more friendly for me.
I've been searching around and found the following to add to build.prop
Code:
log.tag.launcher_force_rotate=VERBOSE
lockscreen.rot_override=true
Does anyone know if this works or is there any other way?
Btw my phone is rooted
I use an app when I need to force landscape or portrait.
