The text on the edge screen (information stream and night clock) is flipped in the opposite direction. Anyone else experiencing this issue? Anyone know how to fix it? Thanks in advance!
Screen rotation is still active when the edge notifications are on so you just have to tilt the phone to the orientation you wish to view it at, then place it on a level surface and it should stay that way. Another possible way would be to turn rotation off, but haven't tried that.

I run dailyroads voyager as dashcam. My sgs2 is seated in the carholder in the left corner of the front window, allowing the cables to be neatly stuffed away behind my doorrubbers.
But: this means I can only rotate the phone counter-clockwise. This is not supported by dailyroads voyager (or any other dashcam-app). They'll just display clockwise landscape, rendering the buttons etcetera upsidedown...
Is there any way to force counter clockwise? I read about it being implemented in some custom rom for another phone...

Anybody knows how to force counter-clockwise landscape?
I do hope someone replies here because I'd like the same thing. When I play games or hold the phone in landscape, my fingers usually end up covering the speaker. Forcing a counter-clockwise landscape orientation would be great. To the OP, I've looked around myself and haven't found anything.

Found it mentioned in Cyanogenmod... It is on it's way for the SGS2, so maybe if we wait just a little bit longer we can finally rotate counterclockwise (or left landscape versus right landscape, or 270 degrees, or whatever people call it).
Just can't be that hard, now can I it? Really no-one with an easy solution here?
Actually I would like to have 90 degrees landscape, I have by default 270 degrees rotation. This is annoyng because when I play games light sensor is in bottom left corrner. I put my finger over the light sensor and screen goes dark becasue my phone thinks that it is in the dark area. I don't know if I remember correctly but in the first run wizard it was set up. But I don't know where to change it now.
That's exactly what we want too... You're talking about the same

Is anyone aware of a way to force apps to rotate clockwise (270 degrees) when in landscape?
Most games automatically rotate the screen counter-clockwise and when holding the phone my hands tend to muffle the speaker and block the light sensor, resulting in lowered screen brightness.
I've been searching around and there doesn't appear to be an app that can regulate which direction of landscape an app runs in. I'm sure other people have run into this issue when playing games, it feels like the light sensor and speaker were poorly placed if this is the only orientation the phone will play games in

I have the same problem. Most app are turning the landscape mode on the wrong side of the Galaxy S2: the speaker and light sensor are covered by your fingers resulting is little sound and little backlight.
Hi,
I'm trying to screen cast from a Nexus 4 to a large screen TV (using a PTV3000). I want to put the TV in portrait mode and have the screen case occupy the entire screen, however I don't seem to find a way to accomplish this. When the phone's orientation is vertical (portrait) it assumes the TV is in landscape orientation and the phone screen is displayed small in the middle of the TV with black space on the sides.
After doing some searching it seems that this behavior can only be changed with a custom ROM, however I haven't been able to pinpoint where in the AOSP tree this behavior can be changed. Any suggestions are much appreciated.
Thanks!

Did you ever get the full screen to work?
I think I must have dropped my phone sometime and ruined the orientation sensor. When I open my camera, it is stuck in panoramic orientation. Toggling screen rotation has no effect whatsoever. On normal home screen, its set at portait and wont rotate. I've download apps that tell you about your sensors such as Android Sensor Box, and it shows that the sensors not responding whether i tilt or shake my phone. Anyone else heard of a problem like this?
ANyone use the HBOMax app? Putting it on the second screen and it will only rotate clockwise so you have to rotate the phone to the left so that both screens are on top. Any way to get to go counter clockwise, so you can watch it with the phone setting flat?

It's still like this. Such a pain. I'm still looking for a workaround.
