This may sound like a dumb question. But, how do I get the dock to display at the bottom of my landscape screen? Currently, the dock shows up on the right edge of my screen when my phone is in landscape orientation.
If I rotate my phone to portrait mode, the dock moves to the bottom of the screen. However, I hardly ever hold my phone in portrait orientation.
I'm using the latest Nova Prime Beta.
Same problem here.
I am very frustrated with this problem on my Galaxy Tab S4. The dock does not go in landscape mode as it did in my other tablets.
WTF, they think that no one is using landscape mode?

after many lockups and problems i decided to turn of the rotate sensor and guess what. My phone now rocks..not a single lockup or problem.. is there any way to change the default rotation of my dell to portrait instead of landscape? also anybody knows if the official update from dell has the same problems?
You can make the home screen set to portrait by default, yes
You must use ADW as your launcher however.
Just set the default orientation to portrait and then you must set ADW to system persistant otherwise both landscape and portrait mode=landscape for some reason. I do the same.
Your lockscreen will still be landscape mode however, unless you still have the older version of Widget Locker.
It's lockscreen view was in portrait. After the latest update however it isnow landscape and you can't change it back. =(
As for the official update having rotation problems, I hadn't experienced many issues with orientation lockups except when I tried using their new Dell Stage Video app which I immediately removed after I found out it locks up the sensor whenever you tried to use it to view a video.
I however hadnt kept the rotation set to auto for very long honestly.
I prefer portrait mode for the home screen. My boot screen aswell is in portrait mode now too since someone was kind enough to post the files on the site the other day.
Portrait mode just feels more natural to me since this is currently my main phone so having it in landscape mode is abit awkward and I didnt like how certain things looked after being resized when rotating orientation.
My friend thanx very much... im using adw as launcher and yesterday i was playing with adw settings for orientation but didnt try the system persistent....of course the phone keypad and all programs remain landscape any ideas for this?
if your on 1.6 still, for the keypad you can download a differnt dialer app.
Dailer Ones pretty good.
If your on 2.2 it should auto rorate tho.
As for the programs themselves, what's not rotating?
Did you by chance turn off "auto-rotate screen" in system>settings>display when you were trying to get the home screen into portrait mode and never re-checked it?
Noticed that in at least a couple of apps I installed last night (Words with Friends was one) that when it runs, it forces a portrait orientation that is bizarre. If your typical Portrait is a quarter-turn clockwise from Landscape with the power switch at top left, then this portrait is completely upside down from that, so that your power button would be on the bottom. There was at least one more that did this, perhaps Waze(?) but just wondered if there was a setting to unlock the accelerometer on apps like this...once it starts, it doesn't matter what direction you spin the tablet.
TIA
I arranged my home screen to look really good in portrait mode which is how it usually is.
But when it goes into landscape, it looks horrible and is practically unusable. It just randomly squeezes things together.
Is there a way for me to have a unique, me-determined layout for the landscape rather than having it randomly render it?
I can't find a reason about why this can't be possible. I want to know if there's a way to take landscape photos in portrait mode (holding the device vertical) on S3.
I was testing this program "Shot Control" it gives you some controllers in the screen, you have half of the screen to see the photo preview, considering the size of the S3 screen it was not a bad layout, but I'll love to have the same possibility holding the device in portrait (vertically) having the preview on top, controls down and taking pictures in landscape.
Is there a program to allow this?
I search over and I saw some solutions for iphone but pretty much nothing for us, here's a related topic:

Anyone?
I have a galaxy nexus, and just bought the mhl hdmi adaptor, i've managed to lock the phone on is portrait mode but this rotated the image filling the whole screen. Basically requiring me to turn my head to see properly. Is there any way to rotate the image vertically and have black pillars on the side?
I need this for a presentation of a portrait application.
