so i was wondering if this is a known issue as a screen rotation lag when i go from side to side to up and down the screen takes up to 8 seconds to rotate i was wondering if their happends to be a fix for this or am i sol. i am running the pheonix rom 2.2.1 with genocide 2.0 ??
There is a fix. First, try Calibratimg the horizontal sensor in the settings. If that doesn't make it almost instant then install terminal emulator and type in /system/bin/sensorcalibutil_yamaha and follow the instructions. But first use a root explorer to double-check the location and file name.

Hey im just trying to change my screen to always be in landscape i trying to do it but its not worrking i understand every thing till it say "Change the Value of "Angle" to the FF:" please some one give me more detailed instructions
Set the Screen Orientation thru Registry and works only after soft reset
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\ROTATION]
Change the Value of "Angle" to the FF:
dword:00000000 or dword:00000360 -> Portrait Mode
dword:00000090 -> Landscape(Right-Handed)
dword:00000180 -> Portrait Up-side Down
dword:00000270 -> Landscape (Left-Handed)
Hide/Unhide Screen Orientation Option in Screen Module[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\ROTATION]
"HideOrientationUI" -> set 0 to unhide, 1 to hide
Set Fix Landscape(Right-Handed) Mode and No Landscape(Left-handed) in Screen Settings
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\ROTATION]
"Landscapefixed"-> set 0 if disable, 1 to enable
What device are you doing this on?

I thought you could change it in settings/screen
i want to change it for good so if i open and close it it will still be in landscape
There are a few ways:
1. Use an app that will rotate the device to landscape, and install a power on notification to launch that on every power on. That way the device will auto rotate itself properly.
2. Remove the magnetic sensor. Semi permanent and dangerous.
3. There is I think a registry hack to force this, but I could never find it again. Search the board using google [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=322565] and try to find it. Let me know if you find it!

PS I wrote VJUzumaki to disable the autorotation properly. However, it's not released (yet).
the registry hack is in my first post i need help with the instructions
there's a less permanent, but far simpler, easier and less intrusive method that I use. Under start, settings, buttons, pick a button that you don't use often, and assign it to rotate screen. I rarely use the camera, and when I do it's easy to get there through the menus, but I use rotate maybe half the time I use the phone

Lanscaper App.... you mean, you can freeze your device in Landscape mode and not have it witch to portrait when you open and close the keyboard??
If so could you please post this app?

i havent got a clue how to get my screen to rotate eg for a txt might b bein thick had the phone ages now tooo, also is there a program out there that will manage my txts better windows looks abit boring haha
thanks in advance
Try tilt your head for screen rotate... LOL... joking....
are you using stock HD ROM? If yes, try download HDTweak and enable landscape/portrait mode.
Then you can go to Settings->Screen and select landscape/portrait mode.

Dear all,
I have installed the screen rotate successfully however when i go in to the screen and change from portrait to landscape it does not let me save it.
pls help on how to keep it on to landscape.i have tried everything else.
thanks

are you saying that after you rotate it to landscape, you want to keep it in landscape even if you rotate the phone back to portrait?
there are a couple of ways you can do this:
1) Use the long-key press in Settings --> Personal --> Buttons; then press "assign a program" and select <Rotate Screen> from the drop down menu
or alternatively:
2) Use the program: changeScreen by 600GOL. It's a great little program that doesn't use too much memory. you can get it from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=468488
Just make sure that for Manila, you've ticked the landscape mode. And then it's done! From experience, cooked ROMS are usually the best ROMS to get landscape in because some stock ROMS don't really support rotation. You can get cooked ROMS from the Blackstone ROM development forum. Have some fun but don't forget to backup!
G-Config will let you set which applications automatically enable rotation when the phone is turned... check it out.
many thanks guys for getting back to me-will certainly give it a go now
if you want the screen automatically rotate in all application... try GYRATOR2....
Hi,
Have also installed gyrator2 but it will not rotate the screen,may be i am been daft-can u please guide me step by step if not asking 4 too much pls?
To rotate manila you would need version 2.0 or above. A lot of the earlier stock roms come with versions below this which don't support rotation. You would need to flash to a newer stock rom or to a cooked rom
I just updated to a Froyo stock ROM yesterday, and don't like the way the screen now rotates in 3 planes.
Does anyone know how to change the rotation to 2 planes only, the way it was in 2.1?
In other words it should show in portrait mode, and counter-clockwise landscape, only.
With 2.2 it also does clockwise landscape.
With CyanogenMod you can just edit in the settings menu.
Unfortunately, I think TheBiles is correct. You will have to flash a ROM that has the functionality (or lack there of, as the case may be) in order to disable the functionality.

phooey.
Well, I will see if I can get used to it. Luckily I am rooted, so if it drives me as crazy as I think it will, I will follow your suggestion.
Thanks for the reply
Having problems with getting my tablet into landscape mode when the hardware buttons are on the top. This makes it not possible to type in landscape mode when using some cases (Poetic slimline for example). It rotates in all other directions fine, including landscape mode with hardware buttons on bottom.
I tried it in both touch wiz launcher and apex launcher with the same issue.
I am rooted running a stock rom. I am using exposed framework only with nothing else custom. There was a link that talked about something similar happening on the lock screen. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2563494
Anyone run into a similar issue? Hoping there is a fix!
The 9th post in the thread you linked gives you a fix.

I saw that but assumed it was specific to the "lock screen". If it works, that would be great. I'll try it and see if it resolves my issue.

Looks like I misread that post.
Wanam Xposed is still what you want, but you'll need to go to System > Enable all rotation angles

Thanks for your response. I installed Wanam without issue. Enabled all rotation angles. Rebooted. No luck. Still does not go to landscape mode with hardware button on top. All other angles work. I check the option for lock screen rotation and that doesn't work either. :crying: Anything else I can try??
Disregard above. Gravity box has options under lock screen and display tweaks that resolve this!
am I losing my mind, or is there no way to have this phone auto rotate/go into landscape mode?
either with touchwiz or Nova, I cant seem to get it to rotate into landscape..
thanks!
EDIT: NM, found it in the pull downs..thanks @sweets55!

losing your mind maybe? lol I know auto rotate won't work on TW when you are home. I have NOVA launcher and it works just fine.
nova settings, look & feel and screen orientation annnnd BAM!

yeah, I know that.. I actually had nova on there, but I did not have the "screen rotation" quick setting enabled, so nova wasn't doing squat.. fortunately, I got help from @sweets55 and that was all I needed!
landscape issues
I'm also having this problem but I shouldn't have to replace TW with Nova in order to view my photos in Landscape mode this is the first phone I've ever owned with this issue also in order to watch a movie I've downloaded on my phone in landscape mode I have to turn off screen rotation then hit the screen rotate option in the video app that is only available to you if you turn off the main screen rotation setting this is utter insanity
If I try and view the Internet in landscape mode it locks there and the only way to get it to go back is to close it completely
this has got to be a software problem because I had the techs at the Sprint store check the sensors and they are working correctly
Samsung needs to get an update out like yesterday
