1. From Google store install "screen orientation" by eyes-free project.
2. Launch app.
3. Set to landscape mode.
All the app I use that starts in phone mode now all oh them starts in tablet mode
Thanks! Works OK
Landscape mode is the default orientation on the galaxy view. Do you mean portrait mode? Is this the fix to switch the orientation to portrait, that we have all been waiting for?

This allows app to use the whole screen(tablet mode) not the narrow phone mode ?
Very confusing. Nice!
thanks... it realy work.
5 star for you and eyes-free project.
How are you.
I'm using Galaxy View(SM-T677NL) I'd like to install "screen orientation" by eyes-free project. But there is no the app on Google Play now. Where can I find the apk or link to download. Please help me.

When using my Archos 70, I find out that the screen orientation is somehow strange.
1st - I like to use it in portrait. However, I cannot make the screen 'lock' to portrait orientation. The 'lock' feature only supports landscape orientation
2nd - Even in portrait mode, when using some apps, the orientation is inverted (such as z4root). Seems Archos makes the default portrait position to be like 'power button at the bottom and the USB at the top). However..... I think most of you will agree that we all like the power button AT THE TOP.
So, is there a way to fix the orientation (default) to portrait, with power button at the top?
Thanks for your help.
1. Yes lock is Landscape, that has to do with the stand.
2. This has to do with the way android works. Normaly view is stopped and started again with the new orientation by the os. But the developer can tell Android that it handöes this switch itself and then the app is responsible for thee switching.
So there is no way atm to change this.
Whenever I use an application (on my A101) that only works in portrait mode, the power button is always at the top.
So far I have tried with Twonky and z4root.
edit: oh, and I believe some of the launchers available will let you lock screen in portrait mode ... try Launcher Pro or ADW
Okay, I'm installing the View in place of the Samsung Galaxy Tab that is in the dash of my car right now, but for ease of access to the power button, I need it rotated to REVERSE LANDSCAPE.
For some reason, the View will only go into Landscape if you turn it counter clockwise from Portrait.
Any help here?
S-Off Rooted and stock HC.
Try "rotation locker"
Once in your homescreen and with the rotation you prefer press the widget and lock it. Every app will be forced to show in that orientation.
Thank you, but the problem is you can't get it into the rotation I need.
Hold your View/Flyer in portrait, and then turn it clockwise. It stays in portrait.
Yeah it seems to only rotate ways in which the Capacative buttons are located. Maybe a DEV can unlock that feature?
I'd hope so. I found an app that will do it, but you have to LOCK it in that position. Not a problem for what I'm using it for, but still, not optimal.
Orientation Control is the app I found.
Hi guys,
I have a tablet and I want to set the portrait mode as the default orientation mode instead of landscape mode. Can anyone tell me how?

Which tablet do you have? My Acer a500 has a switch that can lock the screen orientation to the desired position. There are also a few apps in the play store that can lock it in as well.
Are you using custom launcher. I use nova launcher and you can force portrait by going into nova settings>look and feel>screen orientation>force portrait. I think most of the launchers have this feature.

This is a minor annoyance but sometimes I just want to open my camera app and browse photos while my phone is laying on my desk, but when I open the camera app it automatically goes landscape mode and I have to pick the phone up to get it back to portrait. Any body know of a way to cancel this auto-landscape feature in the camera app?
Edit: Just realized I could just go to the "photos" app directly and bypass the camera. This opens in portrait. But also adds another icon to my homescreen. I'd like to just use the camera icon for all of this, so still would like to hear any ideas anyone has
In settings > display and gestures do you have Auto rotation checked?
Mine opens in portrait.
I am sure many miss the ability to lock the rotation whether if you are in landscape mode or portrait mode. But as you may know, on OOS4 (Nougat) when you lock the rotation it goes back to portrait mode.
After trying many apps I found a solution that is actually better than what I was looking for. My intention was to find an extra tile but instead I found out that this app will modify de behaviour of the existing tile. So when you are in landscape and lock the rotation it will stay locked in landscape mode. Just like the old days.
To do that just download this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nl.fameit.rotate
Then set it up like in the screen shots attached and you're done.
The only drawback is that you need a license after 7 days.
Hope this helps.
