I have the setting checked for auto rotate but it won't rotate the home screen into landscape mode. Do you know if there is a setting which allows the home screen to rotate?

There is not a setting which allows the home screen to rotate.
Try another launcher if you want it bad enough.

Many apps force portrait mode, and the default places the power button at the bottom. I found it too easy to hit power by bumping it against my arm or chest while reading.
Is there a way to flip the default orientation by 180°?
I'm running TnT lite.
Old post bump, having same problem, just got a gtablet.
I'm running Vegantab.
Honeycomb will lock in portrait mode, I use it for reading all the time. That's one of my favorite things about it

Depends which launcher you have. Vtl launcher you need to go to settings and allow 180 rotation.
Apps natively have portrait mode with the soft keys on the top and the power button on the bottom
Is there a way to change that?

As you can read in this thread:

The livedock enables the homescreen to be in landscape mode.
I was wondering if someone could find out how we can get landscape mode without the dock? I think if it's possible with dock it should also be possible without the dock in some way?

So if you put hdmi cable in the phone the homescreen is in landscape mode?
Is there not a developer who can find out how to enable it without hdmi/dock connected?
Maybe an app so the phone thinks a hdmi cable is connected?
Install GoLauncherEx.

If you force it to landscape mode you will have homescreens in landscape, app drawer, in-call screen, ...
It's an amazing app.
Only the lockscreen stays in portrait mode.
Must have app for the people who use their phone in the car in landscape mode!

I understand why people may not be looking at this thread due to the fact people may think wht would I want such a mod, the reason I am looking for this mod is I use a landscape car holder with drivelink app and when my phone rings the caller dispalys portrait and not landscape. its just very annnoying.
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.
