Hello,
I am using Go Launcher on Galaxy Note and it appears to redraw/reload all widgets and icons on the home screen if I rotate the screen i.e while going from Landscape to Potrait Mode and vice versa , all widgets/icons reload.
While rotating applications , this does not happen.
Anybody having this issue with Go Launcher?

Yes, Same issue with me (HTC salsa).
Generally I am not using landscape mode. I always uses portrait mode.
If you want disable Landscape mode, then download Smart Rotator and set Go launcher as Portrait. Which will not rotate your home screen if you interested so.
Hi.
This is not a problem. It is natural to happen.
It has to do with devise display resolution.
My resolution is 540 x 960 pixels in Evo 3D so when i fleep the divise,
the resolution changes is 960 x 540 so the Go Launchers have to rearange the widgets and the icons to adapt and fit to the new resolution.

When using my Archos 70, I find out that the screen orientation is somehow strange.
1st - I like to use it in portrait. However, I cannot make the screen 'lock' to portrait orientation. The 'lock' feature only supports landscape orientation
2nd - Even in portrait mode, when using some apps, the orientation is inverted (such as z4root). Seems Archos makes the default portrait position to be like 'power button at the bottom and the USB at the top). However..... I think most of you will agree that we all like the power button AT THE TOP.
So, is there a way to fix the orientation (default) to portrait, with power button at the top?
Thanks for your help.
1. Yes lock is Landscape, that has to do with the stand.
2. This has to do with the way android works. Normaly view is stopped and started again with the new orientation by the os. But the developer can tell Android that it handöes this switch itself and then the app is responsible for thee switching.
So there is no way atm to change this.
Whenever I use an application (on my A101) that only works in portrait mode, the power button is always at the top.
So far I have tried with Twonky and z4root.
edit: oh, and I believe some of the launchers available will let you lock screen in portrait mode ... try Launcher Pro or ADW
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"?

i have not found any way, i have downloaded launcher pro, (free version available) and that allows portrait home screen, also the ability to hide the notification bar, and afew other tweeks, the apps draw can also be viwd in portrait, but strangly the dial pad stays in landscape.
if you want me to i can upload a few pics for you, please note i also have beautiful widgets (sense like) clock on my home screen.
When I used default launcher one time I somehow got it to portrait but when I tried again it didn't worked...
I had some app force close when it happened...
@ghosty_uk thanks for the suggestion I already instaled LauncherPro but there's something about it I don't like. Anyway it's not a big deal.
thanks.
Silly little problem but whenever i change my home screen wallpaper it goes back to original size and therefore will not fit my home screen. I'm assuming its using sammy's original tw aspect ratio that uses more than the one screen i have i'm also using apex launcher.
same problem here :/

Hi guys,

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.
