Question about landscape - HTC Startrek

Is there a reason for the landscape files in the rom or are they just taking up space?

[Q] stock browser

my question is it just me but in the stock browser I get terrible checkerboard effect? I have tried lots of roms from stock to the latest modded roms but all the same.
also is the autofit page feature only in landscape or have I missed something in the settings? I pinch to zoom for autofit the page but in order for it to work I have to rotate to landscape first and then back for it to work in portrait mode.
if all this has been covered could someone please post the link for me.
cheers Alan.

Checkerboard effect is normal due to the way the browser works, being gpu accelerated combined with a caching method to provide utter smoothness even with flash videos being played. The autofit seems to work for me when I only double tap instead of pinching.
it does zoom in when I double tap but then when I pinch again to get closer it doesn't autofit unless I tip it into landscape first. my galaxy s did it perfectly without having to tilt into landscape mode. not a big deal as I use opera now but would prefer to use the stock browser. thanks for your reply.

[Q] Landscape oriented Lock screen

hello. so i became tired of the portrait mode and i wanted to experience something different. so i turned on auto rotate and disabled portrait mode and enabled landscape mode in cyanogenmod settings. everything looks great. i even applied 140 dpi settings to emulate 800x480 resolution. but there's a problem with the phone dialer since i cannot see the keypad. but i can bear with it anyway.
my problem right now is that the lockscreen is not in landscape mode. i looked all over google and can't find a solution. do you guys have any thoughts with the matter at hand?
It isn't a problem because the android smartphones are meant to be used in portrait mode. You could lock to portrait but not to landscape.

but they did put auto-rotate right? so i think it's also meant to be used with landscape. i do believe that android smartphones, with all its customization and flexibilty, are built to satisfy and adapt to your needs as far as it can handle. and with that being said, i think a landscape lock screen is very much possible.
Possible. Widgetlocker offers that I think?
But I don't know about native cyanogenmod. Stock rom, definitely not.

works great! thanks. i hope that there would be a custom rom in the future dedicated to the landscape lovers out there.
The new version has honeycomb and ics lockscreens so I guess you'll like it.

i am wondering if there is a fix homescreen auto rotate for 3.2.

Hi guys! I am wondering whether there is a fix homescreen auto rotate for 3.2. Only homescreen is very delay. You guys know how to fix?
Do you mean switching between landscape and portrait is slow? Do you have stock or a custom rom?

Yeah, landscape and portrait homescreen. I am using overcom 2.1.1. Only homescreen is delay, for gallary etc.. is normal.
Try a different rom and see if it does the same thing

Tablet Photo Widgets?

Howdy,
I've been searching for a good tablet photo widget for hours and simply can not find what I'm looking for.
I would like the widget to...
-Be stretch-able Horizontally and Vertically separately.
-Be cropped which ever way I see fit (Portrait/Landscape).
Miui has a good photo widget which lets you have a portrait frame and a landscape frame, but they can not be
enlarged. As well as, the tablet does not support Miui launcher.
*Launchers are welcome as well!
Thanks in advance~
Cheers,
JT
Bump?

launcher with different layout for portrait and landscape mode

I use the ss launcher to create a home screen in landscape mode and another one for portrait. It works well but it's a bit resource heavy (as in: it does a lot more than I need).
Question: Is there any *light weight* launcher that allows for a landscape mode and a portrait mode? -- something like two copies of the "zeam launcher" glued together (not that zeam works for N10). I looked around the play store a bit and to my surprise I couldn't find any... maybe I just missed it...
Thanks!
It's wound me up for a long while, how non of the top launchers do this. Any sort of elaborate layout, and half your landscape widgets are totally off the screen in portrait.
From what I remember, layouts were (once upon a time) defined in an xml file. It can't be that hard for the launchers to use separate ones for each orientation... Surely?
