you filled up all of them
Seriously though, you could just leave them in the menu could you not?

Haha, I love that.
Download Zeam, you can have 9 screens with that. Then download easyhome. Then you can easily switch between any home replacement.

Perhaps you could use the More Icons widget which is available in the marketplace? It allows 4 small icons in place of 1 large standard one.

How to force landscape homescreen?

Searched the forum and found no answers! It happened the other day - my homescreen turns landscape - but I can't get it to happen again. Any ideas?! Also, anyone find that this XDA Premium HD app FCs a lot?

Hi!
landscape mode works only in some apps. You will not get landscape mode in homescreens, unless you have a custom ROM installed and have LeeDroid Tweaks.
Greetings
Putti

But it actually happened yesterday! I had landscape homescreen with all icons positioned on right of the screen and widgets resized accordingly...
[EDIT] I am running custom ROM Android Revolution HD

Hello, i have a non-rooted phone and also got it a copple of times.
On the home screen i suddenly had a landscape screen.
Once turned back to portrait, it did not go back to landscape again.
After searching i found a forum message about an app called 'Rotate'.
this app can force autorotate, so the landscape also works on the homepage.
1 problem, you can try it some time and then you have to pay for it (only $1.99)

If your using apex launcher you can go into advanced settings and pick auto rotate or landscape only, if your using stock sense then I havn't got a clue

HTC Sense doesn't allow the homescreens to rotate at will, generally the home screens are locked into portrait viewing.
I have seen screen shots of the phone homescreen in landscape, I think it's just a glitch... as you said, it's reverted back now and won't do it again.
Unless forced with an app etc...

HTC Sense doesn't allow the homescreens to rotate at will, you have to edit the rosie.apk to get it to work as you've already said.
So it doesn't work as standard.

I have a car dock for my One X, and when it sits in the car dock it is also possible to see the homescreen(s) in landscape mode.
Here is an example:

So it is possible and I find it strange that HTC doesn't allow it when using the device normally.

Rotate HTC 1 X homepage
I found this app on the Play Store " Rotation Locker" on another forum. It has worked for me but try it your selves.

This app works but...
Hey...even i was searching for some app or mod through which i can get my homescreen in landscape mode while the phone rests in my "new KiDiGi desktop charger" :silly:
So i came across the apps mentioned above.... "Rotation Locker" and "Ultimate Rotation Control"
Rotation locker was a free app but it did not work fully...like the lock screen used to be in portrait only...and the app sometimes flickered between portrait and landscape mode...so i uninstalled it....
Ultimate Rotation Control is amazing...it works perfectly for me...the only issue that it is a 7-day trial after which i would be asked to pay $2 (almost Rs.110 here in India)...
i would not mind paying money to the developer...but since i have a rooted phone with Android Revolution HD 9.4.1 ROM, i was just thinking is there any custom tweek developed for this ROM which can help me get rid of these Third party apps for rotation control....
Does anyone know about any such tweak for rooted HTC One X??
I have another query...i want to know if there is any tweak/app through which i can get my screen to wake up when a new SMS/Whatsapp/mail comes?? basiacally to wake up the screen in case of any notification...
Thanks a lot in advance

[Q] No fullstop/period in stock numpad

When the m8 stock keyboard changes to numpad there doesn't appear to be a period so I can't enter decimal places.
Anyone else noticed this or know how to get around besides installing alternative keyboard or cut paste?

No problem here either, I have 3 rows of symbols under 1-0.

I was just using website version of Gmail and the keyboard you guys are talking about appeared when I needed to type a verification code. I think what I was seeing is an app issue and that keyboard styles are also app dependent

Hardware keys

Anyone knows why the HTC one m8 stock version the keys at the bottom dissappear in a lot of the apps like Internet and much more, I have use 3 roms alright currently on Insertcoin and they all have the keys permanently there taking more space of the screen is kind of annoying lol. Anyways anyone knows something about it.
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

I can't speak to the Internet app, as I use Chrome, and it doesn't do this. Are you talking about the immersive mode of fullscreen apps, like Google Play Books or YouTube? That's by design.
Although, I can't imagine the Internet app is supposed to do that... Sorry I can't offer much help. Maybe you could list some more apps that do it. What stock rom are you on? (Rogers, AT&T, etc)
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using XDA Premium HD app

I moved this to Q&A since it's a question. My attempt to answer your question:
I've noticed that some apps have built in menu functions and will turn off the keys. The custom ROMs probably have a toggle set that keeps the keys there not matter what. That's my guess without more info.
