I been reading people talking about the default orientation change, to that of the portrait view, but can this be set to sensor, so that whatever way you turn the phone, the lock screen changes to that orientation, whether it be landscape or portrait?
The stock lock screen does not change orientation even if the auto setting is on. There are several lock screen apps that have additional settings and features.
Nevermind, is there any lock screen apps where you can still use the pattern lock? Cause all the ones I tried you couldnt
I second the notion. I would love an app that allows me to lock the screen in the orientation it's currently in.
And the same app, or another app, doesnt matter to me which, has the lock screen come up in the orientation the phone is in.
Edit::: been tinkering with it this morning and now I can't get the darn thing into landscape mode at all..... any ideas
Yeah its strange how the lock screen is locked to a certain orientation. And I have no ideas how to change the orientation. Sorry mate. Another's thing that is strange is why doesn't the streak rotate 360 degree, never understood why it doesn't do upside down portrait.
Maybe the launcher has something to do with it because I have a live physics wallpaper that does follow the rotation 360 degrees.
Also I will mention that when I use ADW Launcher EX I can lock my orientation in whatever orientation it's in when I switch off auto rotate

Yeah I have my phone locked to landscape in adw, but only because the lock screen is locked to landscape, I would just like both to be changeable, with rotation of the phone.
Am I missing a setting where it prevents the lock screen from rotating? I'm new to widgetlocker and have been searching and searching for a way to prevent it from rotating to landscape mode. I want it to stay in portrait mode no matter what angle I hold my phone during the lock screen. This is driving me crazy so I'm sorry if the question have been asked before but I just need to know if there is way to do it.
thanks!!!
Hi, my I9100 when the phone is set to auto-rotate, and is in landscape mode, it will not return into portrait mode. Not even if i set it to no auto-rotation. It runs KitKat (Beanstalk) and even if i manage to get it to portrait, the apps that were viewed in landscape will remain in landscape.
Every tme the only solution is to reboot.
Its defently not a hardware issue, but i have noticed while using apps that show the orientation of the phone such as Bubble level, that the phone doesnt detect when it is faced bottom side, up.
Please help
I think I must have dropped my phone sometime and ruined the orientation sensor. When I open my camera, it is stuck in panoramic orientation. Toggling screen rotation has no effect whatsoever. On normal home screen, its set at portait and wont rotate. I've download apps that tell you about your sensors such as Android Sensor Box, and it shows that the sensors not responding whether i tilt or shake my phone. Anyone else heard of a problem like this?
I’m playing with my old tablet huawei mediapad s7-301u these days. I'm testing cm-12.1 but I have one problem. The orientation of the screen in portrait mode is upside down. It doesn't cause much trouble, working with most applications because I've turning on 180 and 270 degree orientation. The main problem is with the camera. The shutter button is instead at the bottom, at the top of the screen in portrait mode. The output image is ok. Does anyone have any idea where there might be a problem? Thanks in advance.
