I just noticed that there's a newer version of the Facebook for Android app (1.4.1) than the version included in the stock ROM (1.3.2). You can of course get it from the Market.
Has anyone else noticed that this app doesnt rotate when you pull out the keyboard...arrrghhhh!!

It rotates fine for me when I pull out the keyboard (or just rotate the phone) when I'm in any of the sections, e.g. news feed, friends, etc. Just that it doesn't rotate on the home screen.

Anybody else GTasks widget not working? As in the widget turns white (aka blank) and doesn't repond to any touch or open until you go to the actual app and start that up. I just want to know what's going on as I like this app lol. I know some other people had this problem too, just trying to see what's going on here. Thank you!
I use the GTasks scrollable widget. Haven't had an issue yet. Which widget are you using? There are like 4-5 for GTasks.

Yes, that happens for me too when I change rotation. This is what I've done to overcome it.
I've been using the scrolling widget for several weeks. Turned white yesterday for the first time. I use GO Launcher, and use GO backup daily. I just hit restore and all is well.
Not sure what caused the white, I can go portrait to landscape and back either way and have no issues. Love the Gtasks widget, especially having your calendar agenda at the top of the "All" list.
I'm using the latest Hawkish rom and I'm loving it.....apart from the really annoying rotation control button in the gallery, which has to be pressed every time you rotate a photo.
I've noticed this is a feature in a few other roms too.
Could anyone please suggest a way to disable it somehow?
Thanks!

Not sure what you are reffering to for I haven't tested it personally, anyway you could install the stock gallery used by some phones like nexus.
Orrrrrrrrrrr just use QuickPic app from playstore

thanks for your reply
i've been using quickpic also, which is a great gallery app, but i slightly prefer the stock one. I've tried pushing a stock secGallery2 apk to system/app and changed to correct permissions but it just wont install.
I've tried the note 2 hidden settings app, but that doesn't alter anything either.

Yes QuickPic is different than the stock app because it's better
Did u reboot after setting up permissions?
i've solved my problem, i had another go withe note2 hidden settings app and it removed the rotatation button in the gallery, now the phone will automatically rotate to see a photo in landscape without having to press the rotation button every time.
Just a minor problem but it was really bugging me!

Hello, Samsung users! I have a question for you..
I wonder what happens if you open an app that has fixed rotation and then split the screen to open another app that supports both rotations.. What happens when device is rotated? And what happens if you open the same apps in different order and rotate the device? And what if you open a fixed portrait app and a fixed landscape app?
I just don't know how Samsung handles that kind of weird problems
Anyone? I don't need any solution to any problem! I'm just curious about how Samsung handled rotation for different apps!

As far as I know there are no programs without rotation for the multiwindow. Not in stock 4.1.2. So Samsung solved this problem before it begins
So, they forced rotation for all apps? ._.

No. There are only apps with rotation feature. You can't put an app to the multiwindow sidebar wich can't rotate.
So they restrict user experience.... Nice!
Thanks for your replies, Tryunus!

I just did root, and rotation used the Ultimate Rotation Control otherwise did not do anything in the UI. I am using the original Optimus UI.

The stock launcher does not support rotation, it is also why the screen will not rotate without third party software (like Ultimate Rotation Control).
So Ultimate Rotation Control is why everything looks messed up.
THX for the answer
Yes, I know about the locked rotation, but the rom 4.1.2 (if I remember correctly) functioned normally also used in my S2 and was normal, some form of APP by correction or something that can be done.
Is there somewhere else I need to check to rotate the home screen? Apps and phone manager rotate fine.
You need a 3rd party app to make that happen, normally you swipe down to bring the notification screen, then tap and hold the gear until it spins and then it goes off the right side of the screen, at this point it would normally go to setting and then see the system ui tuner in the menu, but Huawei has removed this and you have to download "Activity Launcher", but I dont think this works anymore as it stopped working on my HN8 after it updated to 8.0. But those are the two ways to make it work.

Thanks AngleDeath, I had it with stock L on my M10P, hopefully they will bring it to this to the big screen. I stay in landscape 90% of the time. Hate flipping back and forth.

@cccmachin Try the attached file, unzip and install, it can change the orientation of the screen. Been using it for years, plain and simple, nothing fancy.
install Screen Orientation from app store and you can manual/auto change to any direction that you want on any app

Confirmed it doesnt, but the update version in the play store does:\

But it does not lay out correctly.
