So i was just playing around with my phone and managed to make this happen. No rooting, no modding, no theming. Simple pure touchwiz.
EdIt: Added a few more screenshots whIle I was at it.
@khpatel4991 turns out you CAN take a screenshot of the homescreen transitions.

As a Developer you should say how to carry out this .

Guess it has been connected to a mhl adapter, when you plug it to your tv I.e. the tw launcher can be rotated.

I have done it before, you sorta have to find an app that allows rotation and then while rotated un check the screen rotation and it should stay sideways but doesn't always work...

ultimate rotation control

i was just to post the same.
you confirmed it.
it happened to me too a few times after playing a game on landscape and then after exiting the game back to homescreen, the homescreen is in landscape for a few seconds. that made me thinki landscape mode for homescreen is possible.

Well thanks for your interest everyone. The way i had it was like this. I was playing Redbull motocross (https://play.google.com/store/apps/...um=organic&utm_term=redbull+moto+x+play+store) (which operates in landscape FYI) and i used swypepad ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/...W9iaS5jb25kdWN0aW9uLnN3aXBlcGFkLmFuZHJvaWQiXQ.. ) to turn on Screen Filter ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/...ch_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5oYXhvciJd).
Now when the screen was dimmed by Screen Filter and the phone tried to return to the game, I guess the game didn't like it much. So it closed and dropped me back to the main menu. Which, as u all saw in the post topic was in landscape and stayed so for around 5-10 seconds.
So this functionality does indeed exist. I wonder why Samsung decided to keep it away from us and do hope that they soon release a future update that allpws us tp use the phone in landscape.
Because more options always mean more fun.
Cheers.

Ps- appoint me as suggestor and concept visualizer (just kidding, i dont have any experience with source codes and have basic knowledge compared to you all. But if you still want help i can really be a good suggestor about design and use)

Very interesting! I'm not so good with source code/compiling, but I'm a dev! Count me in for translations,rom building and rom tweaking!
P.s. to get the dev's attention, you could adjust the website a bit and translate it into english!

Count me too, but I'm not a much of a dev I never source compiled or something like that. But I can translate to German and I maybe could help with design. And maybe I can port it to Huawei Ascend P6, but only maybe.

Install CM 12.1 keyboard?

Is it possible to get the CM12.1 Keyboard with the stock ROM? I've been running CM since froyo and have gotten to really like the keyboard over the years. Something else that CM has that I miss is the ability to scroll the cursor with added soft keys. Is there a way to enable that in stock?

AOSP keyboard? It is basically google keyboard.

The Google keyboard doesn't have all the special symbols when you long press a key.

You can access things like forward slashes by long pressing the corresponding letter. Like the numbers on the top row. I agree, it's nice to have. Google should integrate it into the Google keyboard.

CM uses AOSP Keyboard.
Sent from my SCH-R530U using Tapatalk

Everything on the second and third row has a symbol associated with the key that you can insert on a long press. This is how the keyboard is on my wife's galaxy tab 3, my galaxy tab pro, my HTC one m8, my one plus one, my nexus 4 and I think my lg optimus v all running cm9-12.1.
You can also see the < & > I mentioned in the op. Those can be used to move the cursor.

Yeah that is AOSP keyboard there is an cm thread now install it then extract the AOSP keyboard.

I found this by @Shaftamle. It is a modified Google keyboard but there is one with the special symbols. It's working good so far here. The only thing is that I had to add the .apk extension after downloading it but then it installs fine. http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/lollipop-keyboard-phones-root-t2910268

If I knew how to do that I wouldn't be asking how to install it. I'd expect this kind of answer in a Dev thread, but not in a q&a thread.

Have you used Titanium back up? You back up AOSP keyboard then restore it on stock.

Do you expect everyone to hold your hand through the process? This person was kind enough to come up with a solution for you, the least you can do is thank and then ask them for instructions on how to install it the way they told you to. I would help you, but entitled people don't deserve it in my book.

Thanks, I tried this and it just keeps failing. I exported the backup to dropbox, downloaded to stock and tried to import it and it just says failed. I first tried to convert system app to user and that did not do anything.
From my days with the LG Optimus V I recall talk of copying a system file and then changing the permissions and that would install it. I never did it, is that something that is still possible? Or is there something relatively easy that I can do to convert it to a user app?
(I have an alternative working now, but would like to learn how to do this)
Thanks for the help @Orion116

thanks for the link to APK I can type as well as on samsung keyboard! cheers the stock google keyboard is crap

Thanks man, I use your mimaui. I miss MIUI but, choosd AOSP multitasking abilities and your icon package really makes me feel it was on MIUI. You should post it on PS

Sir, thank you for the kind feedback. Actually mimaui was available on Play Store for a few cents,
but I chose to make it available for free as final version. I took all the Play Store earnings and donated the
money to tung91 who did the most work with his discontinued MIUI 7 theme (base of mimaui). Feels better.

Great contribution 🍻 ...post linked to my favourites.

Updated to v7.0

thank you for your work, icons are generally right but when it comes to games many of them are wrong: eggs out, rgb express, super line rush, high risers, extreme landings, draw free, SHORTer, assoluto racing, dubai drift 2 are wrong on my device. google translate has stock aosp icon with white background, and drive has google docs icon.
an advice: on devices with xiaomi.eu roms (like mine) /system can't be wiped, it will brick your phone. i wouldnt write to wipe it on your site

@gian569 Sir, thank you for your useful feedback. I changed the text on my website. Do you wish to help me fixing the incorrect icons for the games?

I tried to fix stuff now, but even if the right icon/package/activity name is declared the MIUI theme engine acts buggy and uses the wrong icons.
Seems like I just can not fix all.

Can you post some screenshots please?

Awesome icons ,man. Look similar as what I get in miui.eu.rom ,just what I've been looking for.
At the moment I've moved back to global stable miui 8 ,and I've flashed your icon pack.
But I doesnt change many of google apps icon beside google photo ,keep and play games.
Those google apps which ,are preinstall in my mi5. Can this be the reason?

[How to] Remap the Bixby Button to Launch Google Assistant

I've just published a full tutorial with step-by-step instructions on how to remap the Bixby button on the S8+ to launch Google Assistant or Google Now. Check it out! https://www.xda-developers.com/how-...-the-galaxy-s8-s8-to-launch-google-assistant/

I've just heard that Samsung are releasing a OTA update to stop mapping this button. Will this tutorial still work?

It's not 'are' releasing an update, it's already out, and it makes it impossible to remap it AFAIK (without root).

It's been reported that after this OTA that the ability to remap has been removed.
Did you apply the OTA update when you got the phone, then applied the remap or did you remap before you applied the update?

It's been well documented for a while exactly what they have done, and samsung have specifically done it to block being able to change the button, it has nothing to do with exynos. It is feasible that different carriers etc are sending out the updates at different times, not everyone has apparently had that update yet, but they will.

Weird.... I just tried the app and recapped the Bixby button to Google Now and it worked.

Same here just remapped using the bxaction app

It doesn't work after the latest update.. International Exyns s8+..

AT&T
I am on AT&T and it says it all updated and I was able to remap the button still.

it works fine for me.. but I have an update of 600+ MB ready for installation.. I'm gonna have to postpone it.
For me the bixby button pulls up the notification shade -> Perfect for onehanded use at the moment.
Samsung should unlock the button once again!

I used bxactions and have the T-Mobile s8 plus and it worked. Btw, I applied the update.

Yep works again with the bxActions app
Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G955F met Tapatalk

Yepp.. The developer updated the app, and now it's working with a new workaround..

Can confirm ihave asnapdragon not only does it not allow you to remap the button but it also does not detect one letter words for auto spacing
Edit: this is kinda bull, you can't disable Bixby either.
It also doesn't show up in apps that are consuming battery life so they're most likely lying about that too.
