Hi everyone i know this might sound like a weird question but does anyone know if there is a hack or something to get the music player with the view of the cd disks go into portrait mode? i think this would be an awesome view for it dont really like to keep going to landscape to view it this way and the portraite mode standard selection is kinda boring.
I just asked the opposite question in the Captivate forums... Seems to me that the stock music player should have some more options available somewhere...

Hello All,
So I am running CM 7.0.3 and have the netflix app running through a friend whom gave me a special APK. When I load the application all of the pictures appear on the screen and I can load video and playback is great (even without the hardware acceleration, though the tablet gets a touch warm). The problem is the information such as names, length and short description do not appear. The application itself actually only appears in portait mode with the soft keys at the top.
I was hoping to find out if this is a restriction set by the CM system and if its modifiable. My Engadget, Joystick and a few other news apps act the same way and it would be fantastic to get it into landscape mode. I am also hoping that getting this into landscape may fix the issue with the netflix text display issues. Otherwise thankfully I can usually tell what I am watching from the picture, but I'm a bit of a perfectionist.
Anyhow, If anyone knows if there's a way to change this please let me know and I would love to try it out.
Thanks!
Miles

did anyone try to watch videos on your galaxy note?
because when i do the video looks werid(?) (i tried to think of a better way to explain this but english isnt my first lang )
im using the bell version of the galaxy note
Can you be more specific here?
Which app were you watching videos with? Netflix?? Plex? Live TV App?? the Movies app?
And by weird...what do you mean? Aspect ratio issues? Overscan??? Artifacts??
Really need more information if we are to try to help you.
You can Tap the top left button while on the video player to change aspect ratio, that's the only thing I've found to display funny on mine. Also, pressing the power button "locks" certain controls (maybe screen taps) so that tapping that little icon has no effect if the power button has been used to lock. That happens a lot easier than you think as it's incredibly easy to click that little guy...
Hey guys quick question for you.
I download youtube videos on my computer and load them up on the GNote and watch the clips using the stock player.
Sometimes when I select the next clip I want to watch, it would play a video that I captured using the GNote. Does this happen to anybody else or is it just me? Also, is there are way to default the screen orientation to landscape?
I could use MX Player or Doubletwist, but I like the stock player because you could lock the screen. This function is vital because I hold the phone with my thumb pressing the softkeys on the bottom.
As always, thanks.
What about flipping the phone around so your thumb is resting on the top of the phone, by the carrier logo? Then you don't have to lock anything. The area is just as wide as the area used by the buttons so there is plenty to hold on to. Just keep your thumb to the left of the logo and not to the right so you don't cover up the sensors.
I just download nba jam. only because i wanna use my prime with my dock and a x360 controller to play it. but when i plug in my hdmi cable it displays vertically on the tv but landscape on my prime. what gives? is there any way around it so i can force landscape on my tv??
Sadly I think this is something EA did wrong with NBA JAM. If you load the game on your Prime you will notice your android statusbar (back, home, recent apps buttons, and clock) move as if the Prime has gone into portrait mode, but then displays the game in landscape. My guess is EA used a portrait layout then rotated it 90 degrees when developing the game. I always thought it was really weird when my statusbar moved every time I launched the game, but to me your post about the HDMI output issue kind of confirms what is going wrong. There are also a lot of comments on Google Play making reference to the fact that this game was ported directly from the iOS version, which might explain the wierd rotation / layout issues.
ahhh i see. and the direct ios port is so true. i went into the apk with root explorer to see if i can if i can change anything and a lot of the names of files in it had "ios,iphone,ipad" in them. i didnt know why the ef it was in there. now it makes sense.
I can't find a reason about why this can't be possible. I want to know if there's a way to take landscape photos in portrait mode (holding the device vertical) on S3.
I was testing this program "Shot Control" it gives you some controllers in the screen, you have half of the screen to see the photo preview, considering the size of the S3 screen it was not a bad layout, but I'll love to have the same possibility holding the device in portrait (vertically) having the preview on top, controls down and taking pictures in landscape.
Is there a program to allow this?
I search over and I saw some solutions for iphone but pretty much nothing for us, here's a related topic:
