Hi,
is there a way to exclude apps from autorotation
My launcher has a seperate option, so that's OK but a lot of apps don't and in some cases it's annoying when it switches to landscape by accident
anyone any ideas?
cheers

If its not in the app settings then just disable it altogether

My Settings are:
By default disable autorotate
Tasker Profile:
- App needs landscape
- context : various apps (PocketCloud/LastFM/etc)
- task: Auto Rotate ON
- action: Display -> Display Rotation -> Set On
- exit task: Auto Rotate Off
- action: Display -> Display Rotation -> Set Off

a very simple method is using the free "Smart Rotator". There you can enable the apps which you want to allow to rotate. Works perfect for me!
This is very helpful, thank you

Does anyone know a app that allows you to set certain applications to auto rotate, and others too not auto rotate? I know about all those toggle Widgets, I'm looking foe something that can control the apps ...(something like app protector pro)

Basically I'm looking for an app or a setting or anything that will allow me to customize when and where auto rotate actually gets used. As apposed to just having it enabled or disabled.
Where I could enable auto rotate to only work in browser, games and gallery and keep disabled for everything else so it stays portrait all the rest of the time.
Could the option be coded into a kernal like the voodoo sound control app/feature or BLC?
Any help would be appreciated
This is exactly what I am using. I use tasker app for that. Get it from the market. It can do much more than just this.

+1, I am using tasker for that too but it doesn't really tie in the autorotate to the apps themselves, but rather it enables/disables auto-rotate based on the apps. This means that I cannot specific auto-rotate to work only with, eg gmail but not other apps. I can only turn auto-rotate on when gmail is launched. So other apps will also auto-rotate so long as gmail is running
Try smart rotator. Its free on market.

Your welcome any I thanked you on that thread.
There's also a toggle in an app called quick settings. Configure to acces from pulldown and "quick" control "settings". Autorotate is one I have enabled, along with wifi, screen timeout, and auto sync. The rest we already have in the pulldown: wifi, bluetooth, gps,4g ect.

Hi all, is there a setting to enable the multi view? Pressing the back button now dont work, it was working last night. I vaguely remember seeing a setting to enable or disable it. Anyone knows?

Thanks! The menu system is so unintuitive.

So, I can easily use reading mode when only viewing one app; however, when I want to use two apps (both added to reading mode and work perfectly individually), the screen goes back to default brightness. Is there any way to fix this?
How do you enable other apps in Reading mode?
