Home screen in 360° - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Use the original rom and would like to know if you have any change that makes the screen rotate in all directions, 360 degrees.

OnlyOne Beta Discussion Thread

I figured I'd make this for people to talk about issues and cool things they find with the OnlyOne Beta 2 Rom
Good morning everyone!
Just installed this ROM last night and running it through the paces.
When long clicking on a home screen, I do not see the option to add direct dial, direct text etc to the homescreens, just apps and folders.
Any suggestions?
Those options are in the app drawer. Click on the app drawer then widgets. Long click the widget to add it.

This is the type of ROM/MOD I really like....plus the SIII TouchWiz operates great...I can get rid of all my other alternative lauchers.
I did try to do some of these mod's myself on the leaked version...svoice, touchwiz, etc. but there was always something not running right...so it's great that some take the time to do this for us!!!
Nice...running almost perfect thusfar...highly recommended.
Can anyone confirm if the tether feature on this rom is working?

Thank you for putting this rom together it's amazing.
The only issue I'm having is with the wallpaper. It says it's vertical when you choose it then changes to scrolling on it's own therefore it zooms in and doesn't look very good. Am I missing something?

Setting wallpapers with QuickPic worked without a hitch for me. Did you try to use it or just the gallery option?

glad to hear it
multi dpi does not work. one of the reasons why i moved away from the rom. the new launcher doesn't support it + stock dpi is too large for me lol

Home Screen Rotation

Some where I read in the reviews that finally Sense 4.0 provides hone screen rotation, but today I check the phone in sprint store and it does not...Now I know that I can use 3rd party launchers but then I will lose sense advantages...What is with android and home screen rotation is it another of of the apple patent thing?

I will do it in Car mode even after you exit car mode if using the HTC Dock. It will also do it when using media link.
I am not sure why they won't allow us to do it at will though. I would like this to happen.

with sense or without sense?
Is there a way to achieve this without flashing a ROM? is there a build.prop setting that could be changed? it does work in car mode after all....
You need a modified rosie.apk. You need to be rooted to change it but don't need to be bootloader unlocked. There are threads about it on here.

With sense. There are a couple of ways to do it.... If you do not want to root, you can get app from the play store that will rotate the home screen..... I forget the name of the app though....
Or you can flash a custom rom... I m using charmeleon rom and there is an option for screen rotation.

If I were you, I would just wait for the sgs3 to come out.... So you can compare the two and make your choice then.
Also you can check out reviews of it and there will be reviews directly comparing both.....

yeah that is the plan, not leaning more towards evo though, as i have used only htc phones sgs2 is the only samsung phone i owned...but yes will wait one more week and see...thank you so much for providing me correct info, if i had asked this kind of question in SGS2 forum, being an evo owner, i would be dead by now..
The app is rotation locker from playstore. After installing click on it and longpress auto rotate. Bamm you have landscape rosie

As others have mentioned it does rotate home screen and app screens if you exit car mode with the phone still docked. I have not been able to rotate these screens outside of the dock, however.

I am still not getting the answer...Is it because os some patent infringement or something else?
I have tried a few android phones and none seem to provide it. Now I tried apex launcher, go launcher and others and they can provide it, so I am still not sure why we do not get it in stock launchers?
Rotation locker worked great on my phone but has one maybe unknown side effect. If you have it set to permanently stay on landscape or you have the auto rotation feature enabled and you enter the camera app you will be in for a nice treat.
The camera app focus disorients and everything looks funny and in a strange angle. You have to aet tthe phone to portrait mode so everything could go back to normal.
Other than that, the app works great!

Can Iseeyou be a good replacer of SmartStay for AOSP ROM?

Hi,
I'm thinking about to come back to an AOSP ROM but I need SmartStay features...can the new app ISeeYou be a good replacement on AOSP ROM? Anyone is using it (PRO version) on aosp? thanks
I know this might sound stupid but have you thought about just creating a widget to lock screen on instead, seems a much better use of battery resources imho, but then I have a real thing about all of Samsungs novelty apps,, so I am biased! Who can watch a video and do other things at the same time?! But hey, that's just me!

No no, I agree with you for the video features but during work it's very usefull for me to use smartstay features...Otherwise, I never thought about this solution, I'm thinking about of setting screen timeout on 5m and even creating a widget to lock screen, is it your way?

Yeah, I just use widgetsoid from the market, what it does is lock screen up to the max timeout, 1hr? So even if you forget to turn off I think it will turn off after 1 hour, and it works even in the dark, .......Samsung

also with widgetsoid I'm pretty sure you can create widget to toggle screen timeout to any of the system presets, even better....why didn't I think of that?! Silly me...doh!

I just installed this on my S3 running CM 10.
It does not work at all. It actually makes it so the screen never turns off.
I'm also using Widget Locker which also has a screen timeout function, and I've tried it with that disabled and enabled.
For reading long articles and playing WordsWith Friends, I would love to gain this feature back.
Any help or tips would be preferred.

[Q] How to make home screen rotate without apps?

Hi there, I was wondering if there is any way to make the Blur home screen rotate without having to instal any third party apps.
Can someone help?
Basically, I wanted to make everything rotate to landscape, homescreen, phone, contacts, since some of those don't rotate unless you force it with third party apps.
Thanks in advance!
Does 3rd party apps also cover Nova Launcher? On settings I can get all screens to rotate.

Maybe some dev could port some system apps from droid 4, as the actual screen resolution and hardware is more or less the same

Pretty sure you can edit your build.prop to do this...could be wrong.

Blur doesn't rotate and devs will probably not use this in a rom.

Found another app, the best one so far. I guess that the file we need should be in that app, but since I'm not a dev, i don't dare to try it.
The app is called Set Orientation, and it allows you to force auto orientation even on those apps that don't rotate, like homescreen and dialer.
The best of all, it's a free app.

Landscape lockscreen?

I would love to attach a screenie.....but it happens so randomly and only lasts a second.
Im presuming that the function is built in because the screen doesnt look all messed up. So does anyone know how to turn Landscape lockscreen on?
Ove looked through the setting but cant see anything? Perhaps im just being a tard?

Android at its core can support a landscape lockscreen. There are a few apps out there that force rotation even when the app doesn't think it should support it. For example, the Netflix app is ALWAYS portrait when in the menu and ALWAYS landscape during video playback, but I used to use an app called "Ultimate Rotation Control", and it allowed it to do the menu in landscape and the video in portrait. I think the same sort of thing would work for you here, but I must admit that it's been a long time since I've used a lockscreen, so I don't know for sure.
Thanks. Ill take a look.
