I just installed VeganTab ginger edition. Everything is working. The only beef I have is the screen of course, but I noticed that it looks much better upside down and I can get better viewing from this angle. Is there any way to flip the screen upside down? Maybe an app or a setting somewhere? It looks a lot better upside down. thanks.
Hmmm, not sure how upside down will be better but go to Settings/Display and deselect auto-rotate screen... Turn it over...

Upside cown IS better. what he means is have the screen flip 180 degrees, so that the buttons are now on the left, and the power/volume on the right.
I'm not sure how Vegan ginger works, but most roms/launchers do allow for autorotate. The problem is, some apps won't follow your rules. If you have autorotate on, then you can justify your home screeens, app drawer, etc. simply by flipping the tablet around. Some apps prefer to work in portrait, so they won't be able to be used in landscape. Other apps (death worm) automatically load upside down, so for you, it would load normally. Most bideo players will only load in the default landscape position, and won't help you out.
The other issue, is that with the buttons in the palm of your left hand, they accidentally get pressed a lot...That's my one complaint with deathworm, I have to hold my hand above the tablet, while moving around with my finger...my wrist/arm gets tired after a while...simply because I don't want to accidentally hit back, or home.
Yea. I think all of the rom makers should include an option to load it all upside down (you know what i mean). I cant find any app that can do it.
Interesting. It looks like if you hold it "upside down," you get better viewing angles with the tablet held parallel the the ground, but if you hold it right side up, you get better viewing angles with the tablet held perpendicular to the ground. So if it's sitting flat on a table, yeah, you can see the screen much more clearly if the camera-side of the tablet is closest to you. But if it's sitting on a stand at a steep angle, you'll want it right side up. (This is all assuming you're holding it in landscape orientation. In portrait, it doesn't seem to make a difference.)
aha! found it under settings->vegantab settings->display then just enable "rotate 180 degrees". however I do not recomend it for general use because the home,menu,etc. and even power buttons get in the way too much. But for watching movies etc it is much better rotating it in the upside down orientation with this enabled.

There is an app that let's you disable the buttons...I can't remember what it's called, as I've never used it. But that might come in handy, as long as you have corresponding softbuttons as well.
Is there a way or an app in which you can watch a video thru hdmi with the screen off?
I'm looking for a solution also. I thought my prime would be able to replace my media player but when the screen is always on it's terribly distracting, even if the background is black.
Screen off puts it to sleep. As far as I know there's no workaround.
But if you use dice player every video I've tried has used hardware decoding and gives you the black screen. Helps on battery as well as not being distracting. Swipe down to decrease brightness on the black screen even further. Doesn't affect you're actual brightness setting.
My tablet screen goes into a sleep mode after minute. but continues playing video. I also have it plugged in. I was using the crunchyroll app so I don't know if it will work for other apps. My best guess would be go into settings and click on display and adjust the time till the screen turns off. The last thing is you can just close the prime if you have the keyboard station or just flip it over so the screen is faced down.
I don't mind the screen on but would like if off to save on battery.
Hello,
so I noticed that the default YouTube had a button with two arrows, that when viewing videos in landscape mode you could press, so that video zooms in a bit, so there is no black bars on the sides.
But with YouTube app update the button disappeared!
1. So have you noticed it?
2. And what can be done about it, or who could be contacted about it?
To view videos with truly full screen was really nice! I want that back!

In new youtube version, It become "pinch to stretch"
Try to pinch your screen like you want to do zoom, it will become full screen
Hi,
When i scroll a screen, sometimes show up a small blue dots or lines? When I start recording, they stop showing... But usually it's show all the time, in many apps.
(on the 1st video, dots are noticeable for the first few seconds)
(on the Safe Mode is the same)

It was a main board error. I took the phone to the service and on the same day they gave me a fixed one with a new motherboard. I also have the impression that the responsiveness of the fingerprint reader is faster. So thread could be closed.
I have a weird issue. When I place two fingers on my phone screen and they're both placed om the same line, it causes issues. As shown in the example bellow

As you can see, when one finger moves across the screen the other static input slightly moves left and right. Also shown at the end is what happens when the fingers aren't lined up, the issue doesn't happen. I don't know of this is how every touch screen works. And if it does, can this function be turned off?
