I've been looking for an app or way to lock the orientation of my Mini Pro in landscape mode even if the keyboard is not out, AND even if i have my phone standing in portrait.
i know there's an automatic orientation sensor that switches it to landscape if I tilt the phone, but I want the orientation to be ALWAYS in landscape.
any app? i would really appreciate it.
THANKS guys!

thanks will check it.
UPDATE: unfortunately, its giving me forceclose errors when doing it in landscape. works fine online in portrait
installed custom ROM? adw has its that kind of option under system preferences.
adw can lock its landscape mode no problem, but only the homescreen. i want the LockScreen to be in permanent landscape too. I tried WidgetLocker for the Lock Screen but it works in portrait only and it forcecloses when i try it in landscape. weird.
i dont have custom rom. my phone is rooted though.

I hate landscape, is there a way to keep the streak 2.2 froyo in portrait all the time, i have adw for the homescreen but when i go to dailer or anyother menu it flips to landscape unless i have auto-rotate screen checked to which the screen goes all over the place at times. is there a theme or hack to HELP???
That's interesting. I hate portrait.

I too hate landscape. I have ADW locked in portrait, but it'd be really nice if I could get the phone to be in portrait mode for all of the apps instead of having to wave my phone around to get it in portrait. And the lockscreen is always landscape no matter what!
I've tried various orientation locking apps from the market, but they all lock it in landscape. Anyone know a solution? I'm using streakdroid 1.6.1 (soon to be 1.8.1).
I think Dell Streak is best at landscape. I have it locked on ADW on Landscape.
Don't know if this works for just the homescreen or not, since if I had my way I'd never go into portrait, but someone posted this a few weeks a few weeks ago on modaco:

Go into settings, find system persistant in orientation

if you load 341 froyo 2.2.2 there is an option to disable rotation completely.

Wouldn't this just force the Streak into landscape-mode or does it stay in portrait-mode when disabled?
I was wondering if there was a way to "lock down" rotation so that the landscape orientation would always be such that that the LCD buttons were always to the right in landscape and to the bottom when the phone was rotated to portrait.
Any ideas or Apps that I've missed?
To lock to landscape just turn off orientation in settings ....to lock to portrait. Use adw launcher and select system persistent

Not the question he asked
The O/P wants to keep landscape/portrait ability but limit it to one direction only. For example the port is always the screen bottom in landscape and always the left side in portrait.
Exactly... I want to be able to lock the streak/ui down to only one portait and one landscape... basically establish to fixed "tops" and then use the accelerometer to swotch between those two. Is that possible in 2.2.
Btw, what's "o/p"?

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.

Hi Guys.
There's a couple of apps that seem to come up as portrait even when my phone is on landscape.
Lock screen is one of them, also the phone app is on landscape but when I receive a call it goet to portrait.
Is there any way to fix this?
I've installed app settings, and forced auto rotate on phone, but still the same.
Maybe phone app is not the one used when on an actual call?
Any ideas?

Managed o do this with an Xposed module, but the phone app doesnt rotate well, and displays an error in the swipe to answer
Any ideas?
try the App Set Orientation from the Play Store.
Note: if an app forces you to landscape than it`s because the App doesnt support portrait.
Try rotation control by fame it. This app let's netflix rotate to portrait!
