I am using simple image wallpaper to set the custom 2560x1600 wallpapers to fit on the landscape and portrait mode fully on the homescreen.
But how about the lock screen wallpaper? I can't fit that properly on portrait mode. The bottom and top are cut off.
I am using the Simple Image lwp as well for my homescreen; I would also like to know if we can do this for the lock screen.

On my 70IT the landscape is the default screen orientation when autorotation is off. Is there any apps or tweaks that can change the orientation to portrait without autorotation?
I use LauncherPro as my homescreen (faster & more flexible) and it has an orientation lock setting. I can't tell you about the stock home screen since I'm waiting for Archos to send me my replacement A70...
Only launcher that will remain locked in Portrait mode for me has been Go Launcher. Launcher Pro, ADW.Launcher, and Zeam seem to lock landscape wise, even if you say portrait.
For this matter I use AutoRotate OnOff widget. You can find it in Market. Hope it works for you.
Widgetsoid!!
This has the best widgets I have seen...
When I view a picture in the stock gallery app and I turn the phone from portrait to landscape or vice versa, the picture doesn't rotate. Instead I need to tap once on the picture to reveal the menus and then press the rotate button (on the top bar, second from the right) for the picture to turn.
Is there a way to make it auto rotate like in the stock ICS gallery?
This may sound stupid but bring down your notification bar and check if screen rotation is on.
Anyway, wouldn't be surprised if it were a bug. I have a couple of bugs in my gallery app. Some pictures flip 180 automatically and some stretch to landscape and distort instead of staying in portrait
Thanks for the reply. Auto rotate works everywhere else. It even works in the gallery app all the way until you select one picture and view it full screen. It seems as though it was designed that way because the rotate button actually lights up when you turn from portrait to landscape and vice versa.
\edit I've attached a screenshot of the rotate icon. Its the second one from the right on the top menu bar. This icon is grey when in portrait. When I turn my phone to landscape the picture doesn't rotate, instead that icon becomes white and pressable.
Is there a way to make a wallpaper take up the full background when docked in landscape? Both the dock apps I use show the wallpaper only on the left side of the landscaped phone.
So I noticed that my homescreen isn't completely black even after setting a black wallpaper. I'm certain it's not a screen defect, because when I preview the wallpaper, the screen is completely black. I tried changing themes and launcher, it didn't help. The status bar and a portion below it is slightly lighter. I'm not sure what to look after to make it go completely black. Below is a comparison screenshot of the homescreen and gallery preview of the black wallpaper to prove it's not a screen defect.
I'm looking for an app that will allow the lock screen to be automatically rotated to landscape (useful when putting the Samsung S7 on a stand).
