Hi, is it any possible to make a landscape homescreen on Sony Ericsson Home?
Yes it is Possible
Yes it is possible but with the help of third party App
in the market there is two free apps available
1) Go Launcher ex
and
2) AWD launcher
install any one i recommend the AWD launcher
after install it press the home button and select the AWD home screen
when AWD is applied you can change its settings by tab on settings / preference
here is the option to landscape mode.

Sorry but i think this is not true - installed the fw on my arc and there is no landscape mode for homescreen. As far as i know it´s only possible with the xperia Play and Neo
Confirm, still not possible in latest ARC (4.0..) version. Unfortunately

Not on the Neo. I have one and it doesn't work in Landscape just by turning the phone.
Landscape on the launcher is ONLY activated if you
- slide open the keyboard/keypad (Pro and Play only obviously)
- dock the phone (all models)
Sony ericsson announced Homescreen landscape but it is only working on HDMI mode
i downloaded the leaked home.apk from sony and it did have the landscape mode. though the new firmware doesn't have it

For me the Landscape mode works fine for phone dialer, Call log etc. but not the Launcher
So the feature exist, only a dev should enable it.
I hope someone will fix this
Kind regards,

The latest firmware does have it... but it can only be used via HDMI...
Sent from my LT15i using XDA Premium App
Until now New version[.368] not available for Play.
When it released,we can try that launcher in our ARC.
So landscape works for the keypad but what if you are doing a text search on contacts?
After clicking on the contacts text search can you flip the keypad to landscape?
(questions referring to non-physical keypad xperia arc, neo or ray)
Edit: I played with an Arc and have confirmed this shortcoming. At some stage you are stuck with a full qwerty in portrait mode. Guess it would be the same for a Ray
I know there are several Launchers that work on Tabs
But I hate those who change the tablet look to phone look,
Most of them are in portrait mode and and thats not the way a tablet should be.
I have the Sony tablet and I don't like the app menu because its to white
and I dont have root access (Not Anymore) after I bricked it xD I had to send it back for repair
and now I have a kernel that is not possible to root (for now),
and I cant replace my launcher from a other tablet which requires root access to change the permissions,
Someone got an idea?.
EDIT > I got root access now, 'Im Glad'
I managed to add the basic Honeycomb launcher from Asus Transformer : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566834http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566834
but are there any better available?
because this one is made for 3.1 version
I just installed Go Launcher HD, very basic but very fast and clean
Enviado do meu Sony Tablet S usando o Tapatalk
I use GO Launcher which is a much better homescreen and launcher.

I recently installed it and there as few problems I can't seem to solve:
1. There is no option to resize widgets. It is supposed to support it, but there is just no way. Whether in Free mode or not. How to do it?
2. In the app drawer, many apps are displayed twice, some apps don't appear at all, and there are some apps that I don't even have installed...

1 . you have to be in edit mode. You can resize/rotate/supperpose/order/... (note : you can fine resize when you are in free mode)
2 . The last release correct that
1. I was in edit mode and found no way to resize a widget.
2. I am already using a latest release (from 3 days ago), so unless there was another update, I'm using it.
How to limit the number of screens?
By default Lightning Launcher has 5 screens, I need only two. How do I remove extra screens?
Expired.
No Dual (2nd app) shortcut.
Cannot keep shortcut for the dual apps like Whatsapp, Truecaller. The dual (second) app appears separately in the default launcher (check screenshot 1) but not in lightning launcher (check screenshot 2). I love lightning launcher because of customizations but it's only missing this main feature. Please add dual app.
Thought I'd share so you can enjoy too.
what is this ?
It allows you to set one launcher for phone and another for pad.
I manage to get it working but not on the Desktop mode. It works when you disable the Desktop and I am wondering is there anyway to have it in Desktop Mode?
No, at least for now. You have to disable launcher file mode from Experimental Features and then set it from the app. Moreover in some cases (like for Muzei) the wallpaper returns the default's one when you close the app, at least for me
