Call screen in landscape mode - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When I've got my phone on the dock everything is properly landscape until I take a call and then the call screen goes back to portrait so everything is stuck on it's side until I hang up. Thought it was just Sony's oversight not producing a landscape call screen and have seen a post in the Galaxy S2 forum that has the same problem and an amended phone app was produced to get over this.
However, when I was using the gamepad today and answered a call without sliding it away, the call screen was properly landscape along with everything else so it does actually exist in the software already.
Anyone any bright ideas how it can be persuaded to work on the dock too? Many thanks for any suggestions.

Here's the proper landscape view with the pad open...

}
and here's what I get on the dock with the pad shut...

Create a kool lock screen notification display.

I have seen the Samsung CES show on youtube and was just woundering if

any of you developers can come up with a LOCK SCREEN NOTIFICATION DISPLAY. Where it shows text, missed calls and notifications moving on a strip peace when the screen is off. Just the strip shows with the notification. Like this one.
Just wanted to put this idea out there and maybe see if anyone can make this happen.

Mind posting the video?
I really dont think this will be possible, it would almost be like having an overlay or a floating text box set to the edge of the screen when the device is turned off. to activate the feature. maybe you can, but that sounds like a lot of work for a Dev to do.
sounds cool though.
It was just a thought. Im sure someone might be enticed to try. Never say never.

Weird wallpaper behavior

I'm using CM12, but I guess this is relevant for lollipop as a whole.
Here's a weird thing that I noticed.
I tried to set a wall paper like this :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
But when I applied it, it appeared like this :
I got that problem with other pics too.
What is going on here ?

Click to collapse
Depending on the launcher/number of home screens wallpapers can be stretched to accommodate two/three home screens for example. When using a wallpaper which has a "single-screen" resolution, like 1440x2560, it will be zoomed in to cover two or three home screens.
What you can do is use a 2880x2560 for testing purposes. If this wallpaper shows correctly (not zoomed in vertically but able to scroll horizontally) the above assumption is correct

An issue with the s-pen pointer's location in landscape mode

I'm facing a truly irritating issue with my s-pen since I installed the latest CM12.1 ROM.
The s-pen works completely fine in portrait mode as in the following picture
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
When the phone turns into landscape mode the s-pen shows a different touch location than the original one as in the following picture
I tested my sensors and they were all working well, I tried to discover what was happening I figured out that the s-pen when I move it horizontally, it moves vertically and when I move it vertically it moves horizontally (i.e. the screen turns but the s-pen touch doesn't turn accordingly), thus it moves only in the left half of the screen as in this photo
Can anyone help me solve this issue?! it's so irritating and I can't figure out what's wrong with the settings.
Note: I tried many Tuneup applications, but it didn't work. Is there anything I can edit manually or change?!
I would really appreciate any help

touch screen (digitizer) troubleshoot, help please

heeyy everybody
I don't know if I am posting in the right place or not please don't mind if I am mistaken
recently I changed my Asus Fonepad 7 (FE-170CG) touch screen and display screen by myself, after changing, lower one third part of the screen is not stable when I want to touch (this place is always for on screen keyboard and it does not function properly in consequence), I did reset factory and searched a lot for this issue but neither of them worked unfortunately, I turned on developer mode and turned on pointer on screen so I could show you about this issue in attached photos, it seems some vertical (Y) elements are not working properly
if anybody knows about it please let me know
many thanks all

Question YouTube on notification tray goes away??

Hey guys,
On my previous phones the YouTube player would always stay on my notifications tray even when I closed all my apps, even though it says it's "pinned" it does not stay pinned under the toggles, once I close all my running apps it's disappears, but on other phones it didn't, I like when it stays pinned, any way of doing this??
Thanks

It's pinned, but once I clear my apps it disappears help lol it's just handy to have it there
If it's not playing it doesn't show up as an active notification, but you should see it if you fully open the quick toggles not just the notifications view (on the screen you posted, swipe down a second time).
The above answer seems correct in my case. If playing it is up top and viewable with one down swipe. If not playing it is there with two swipes if you have the media pinned toggle on.
