Landscape works everywhere except the home screen. [that's AOSP]. You can install a custom launcher like Apex, Nova, Go etc. and landscape would work on the homescreen too.
I've been using Jandycane and so far batt life has been good.
One thing I can suggest is NOT using animated wallpapers. They look awesome, but really task the CPU, which drains the battery.

I dont think hash and lithium have added cpu control yet, but twa's CM10 port has it and its a great rom so far, no bugs that i have found yet
even google now works
Jandycane has better battery? Any other advantages over hashcode's rom?

I found it draining the battery to start with, cleared all caches, reset permissions, now fine, using hardly any cpu (on Franco kernel r6)
Looks even better on screen natural seeing !

would anyone happen to have an apk of this?
it says my Photon is incompatible.
Thanks for the tip. I like it, but they look "low res". If there would be an HD version I would use it.
Try lantern festival and fresh leaves, they are very good.

Just installed cm10.1 by hash code on my rooted kindle fire 2. Battery life is good, but just wondering if anybody has any suggestions on how to make it better. I tried to adjust the brightness of the screen and it does not appear to work. Anyone less having this issue? Thanks!

You can try different cpu governors or underclock the cpu

Yes, that is a possibility. But without hindering performance, is there any other ways? Has anybody else experienced the brightness setting does not work on cm10.1?
Sent from my Amazon Kindle Fire2 using xda app-developers app
Try the sgt7 rom by PowerPoint.
It's more up to date and configurable.
Edit: I've also been using the hotplug governor lately with no noticeable performance hit and much better battery (at least for the two days I've been on it)
It mostly seems to help your second core shutdown faster when the screen is off.

I'm sure some or many of you have heard of this, but the app Greenify is amazing. I just wanted to try and get the word out to anyone experiencing unsatisfactory battery life.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Greenify is great. It lets you hibernate the apps that you are not using without the confusing interface which other apps offer. It's impossible to put yourself into a bootloop using Greenify since your not disabling individual services that the general user might not understand. I've been there and done that using other apps.
By hibernating the apps you're not using, not only do you get better battery life, you also get more free RAM that can be used by other services and applications making the overall experience with the system that much better because you have plenty of memory.

Thank you, your explanation is definitely a lot better than mine ever would have been I also appreciate you putting up a link. I made this thread from my phone and I don't usually create many threads or post much so I'm still trying to get the hanf of it.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
It's not too hard. Just minimize the app and open the Play Store, find the app, click share, if you have a clipboard app you can copy the link or do what I do and copy it from the text message option, then pull up XDA and paste.
I kinda made it sound like a sales pitch... but that's just how I explain stuff.

Is the process similar to what RomToolbox pro does when you freeze an app?

I think its much more user friendly. The app stays in its hibernated state till you use it. No need to defrost, like when freezing. And its not system heavy, or use much ram
This is a very useful app. Nice find.

Data and phone service is two different things
You can get cut off from data on sprint, AT&T, Verizon..etc. and still get phone calls and all....but you wont be able to stream, download..etc

Love Greenify, it's great for annoying apps that like to run all the time in the background, that you use only very occasionally, like Number Guru for example.

All of them! Only ones i don't are the ones i need running in background (dropbox, drive, chrome, maps, Google voice, and a couple widgets that auto update)
No performance hit so far and battery is noticeably better. Gonna add ds battery saver tomorrow and see how far i can push it.

I always Greenify any social networking app since I'm not really too worried about simply refreshing the app once I open it. This method has allowed me to get a solid 4 hours of on screen time with about 15% battery left.

You can try this simple fix. If the internet is slow for Silk turn off Accelerate Page Loading. It actually makes it slower. Also, select hide Home Recommendations. This will turn off the adds that constantly pop up and change when navigating apps on the main carousel. These options can be found under Settings > Applications > Silk and or Amazon Home Recommendations. Maybe this will help a little bit.

What you consider slow? Are comparing it with another tab? My kindle is almost as fast as the Nexus 10.
Why you don't benchmark it using Antutu and Quadrant so you can compare with others?
