Has anyone tried to raise the keyboard height in landscape mode in the keyboard settings? I don't think the slider works in landscape, perhaps it's a little bug? It works fine in portrait

Is there any way to prevent my screen from auto rotating UNLESS I have the keyboard up, my phone seems to like to rotate frequently when I only need it to rotate for the landscape keyboard.
I am unaware of a way to get it to just rotate with the landscape keyboard but you can download something like Widgetsoid that will allow you to put a "Auto-Rotate" toggle on your homescreen so when you want to use the landscape keyboard you can just toggle the rotating to "On" and then when you're done you can toggle it "Off".

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.
Hi.
I'd like to have the following:
In Portrait mode: normal size keyboard
in Landscape mode: big size keyboard, should use about 70 -80 % of the screen.
Currently I am using Hackers Keyboard, 4 Row, 70% size.
There are 2 lines left to see, when typing.
Is there a way or an app so the android status bar (clock, battery, etc) is hidden when turning the phone from Portrait to Landscape so the whole screen can be used for typing?
ZTE Blade, Swedish Snow, Android 2.3.5
nobody?
Hi.
Is there a keyboard which is:
* similar to Hackers Keyboard (easy to customize)
* customizeable in portrait/landscape height (I want a big keyboard in landscape)
* capable of setting brightness in Landscape to a fixed value (e.g. 75% not using Ambient Light sensor - activating Light sensor when on Portrait)
I know, I could use Tasker for the last, but I'd like to know if there is a keyboard app.
Recent apps screen gets in landscape mode whenever any app in landscape mode is running even in background like camera app.
Is there any way to lock the orientation and it just change orientation according to auto rotation enabled.
