Hi,
Several apps I have tried (maybe ~10% of them) only have portrait mode. This is a problem if you have a TV you can't rotate.
I wonder if anyone has any ideas of how to write, say, a background service that detects if it's displaying in portrait mode, and then shrinks the screen view and flips it 90degrees (so essentially you have a portrait screen that is now the correct way up, with black screen on either side). You can't tell it to display in true landscape because that's hard-coded into the app, so it is better to just rotate the portrait display. However this is a hard thing to do as the screen display is very low-level... but does anyone have any ideas of how to accomplish that?
I've done some searching, but of course Android has never really faced this problem before. Android has either been on a rotatable mobile device, or it's been on a GoogleTV where everything is landscape...
If so, that would open up more apps for Q-compatibility...
I develop live wallpapers using Opengl ES 2.0 engine. My wallapapers run smooth on 2.x Android Devices , but in 4.03 i see some strange things. when app runs for first time everything goes fine.
But when screen orientation changes , or screen goes off and back on (that causes the renderer to call create surface again) renderer gives the glerror 1285. this error is Out of memory.
Screen is flickering and draws objects as they ara doublicated in different locations.
Any sugestions?
UPDATE
I noticed something weird
in preview mode , everything goes fine when i change orientation , and turn off and on screen , because glWallpaperService.glEngine.onsurfacedestroyed is triggered! in normal mode , this does'nt happen! even if i turn of the screen , the only void that triggers is onsurfaceChanged! but GLThread destroyes the surface both modes.
Whats the difference between normal and preview mode? and why preview mode triggers onsurfacedestroyed on every change?
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?
hello everyone,
I'm having a problem with the rotation of my android device and I was hoping if anyone could help me with this.
to give some backstory, I'm trying to create a magic mirror using a MK809 III B Quad-Core android stick, which uses android 4.4.2
the stick is used with a computer monitor (Samsung Syncmaster 205BW), but the monitor will be used vertically. (I'm using a HDMI>DVI-D adapter to connect the two)
because of this, I need to have the screen rotated 90 degrees in portrait mode, and android does allow you to change the rotation of the screen, but it doesn't do it well.
normally the rotation is set to landscape, but you've the option of setting the rotation of the screen, but if I set the rotation to 90 degrees, rather than actually rotating the screen with 90 degrees, it rather pushes a vertical screen in landscape mode, thus cutting off half of the screen.
so far I've tried apps such as Ultimate Rotation Control, but those do not actually rotate the screen, rather they just lock the rotation.
my question now is if anyone can help me with this problem, or tell me if it's even possible to do the thing I'm trying to do.
Any Luck?
I'm having the exact same problem with APQ8084 SOM running android 5.0.2 outputting to HDMI monitor (no accelerometer).
You would think this would be an easy problem to solve.
If I put my Winodws 10 Monitor in portrait mode, it correctly rotates screen 90 degrees end of story.
As Yusunoha mentioned, changing the user rotation in Android (via several methods):
1. using the "settings put system user_rotation 0/1/2/3"
2. modifying PhoneWindowManager.java to always return preferred rotation as "portrait"
3. Setting "persist.panel.orientation=90/270"
Does NOT result in screen rotating 90 degrees.
Instead I get a compressed portrait mode stuck inside my landscape orientation.
It's almost as if the accelerometer (which I don't have) is telling the OS to always orient towards it's perceived gravity.
Any tips rotating the entire Android Display experience (not on a per APK basis) would be wonderful.
Anyone have any ideas?

Found any solution? Even with my rooted device and these settings it won't work. Also using usb c > hdmi > vga.
Has anyone had any success with mod'ing Desktop mode with the Android 10 update? I realize Desktop mode is very basic and is nowhere comparable to Samsung Dex, i am wondering if there is a way to mod or add any features to Desktop mode? I have a Ultrawide monitor than i cannot get a decent resolution beyond 16:9. 21:9 does work but the screen is stretched out and i know that the phone will not reach the 2560x1440 res of my monitor, but i am trying to max out the screen as much as i can and add some functionality to Desktop mode. I read about a solution to change the DPI of Desktop mode on other phones with Android 10, but i dont want to mess up any functionality of the dual screen by doing so?
Install Lg velvet home apk
Also second screen
And taskbar
Lg wing touchpad apk

Installed Velvet Home..I heard that if you give write permissions to Second Screen and change the res, it stops the dual screen from working..and the LG Wing touchpad does not work on the G8X.. i installed the APK, used a Activity Launcher to run the app, but the touchpad does not control anything in desktop mode, again i am wondering if something about the dual screen messes with it working.
