Sense Landscape - HTC One X

Hi All,
can anyone advise on how (if possible) to get the Sense interface to rotate to landscape mode, this happened to mine yesterday following a weird bit of behaviour when Dolphin browser crashed, despite the weird little hiccup I was very very happy with the end result (perfect landscape sense) but as of today less than 24hours later back to standard portrait mode
any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

I think this might do the trick: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devasque.rotationlocker&hl=en
Also, there might be other similar apps on Play, so browse around a bit. Otherwise, some custom ROMs also offer this feature.

Thanks for the quick response a704e unfortunately Sense keeps forcing a return to portrait for these types of application, looks like a trip to custom ROM land.........

Nope. It is also made for keyboard phones.

Sorry, I assumed were talking about the One X and sense 4.

I always believed that the Sense Rosie didn't allow Homescreen rotation.
It'll only get activated when in dock mode.
If you want to have a Landscape Homescreen I suggest a custom Rom or a different launcher, Apex launcher works well.

I've made a dock of that box from One X, and it looks perfectly with landscape Sense. I will make a photo how it does look. But later.

Need app called ultimate rotation control, perfect for rotating

I think that only changing the code of Rosie launcher may help. ROM's land ))) I did change it and it works great, except People widget, it doesnt have enough room in landscape mode to show all contacts.

This works perfectly but annoyingly leaves a notification in the status bar when it is running.
Does the lockscreen too.

LauncherPro Beta

Has anyone tried this??
It's in the top free downloads on the market, and I definitely recommend it!
It has the fly in effect when you open/close an app (a la iPhone) which makes everything feel so much more fluid.
Obviously HTC widgets don't work which is a shame, and its a little buggy being a beta, but you should try it!
Just downloaded it to give it a try. I like it.
The only downside is there is no choice of what to put on the bottom bar. I don't use the people or stock messaging app. If I could change them I'd probably use this over helix 2.
Busy trying it out now - it's extremely quick. I think I'll keep using it for a while, see how it goes.

The standard helix is actually better then this one. Especially in speed and customization

agree,
the only thing thats stopping me from using a launcher is no htc widgets and not being able to customize the grid of icons on the desktop so 4v4 only :<

how can you change the grid of icons in HTC Desire to more than 4 icons ???
Also i think that the Sense launcher is by far the smoothest and the best so far. nothing can beat it in speed, fluencity and HTC widgets.

[Q] Different Sense Question.

Heya all,
I'm actually using Pays' rom cause i love the sense UI and love the custom dock used by this rom.
But i'm a bit bored of this 7 homescreen and this scrolling wallpaper.
Is there a way to reduce the homescreen to 1 and hold the wallpaper too ?
I used launcher pro but i can't use sense widget with it.
Thanks for help in advance.
Panpan.
Its not a perfect fix, but cant you just not use the homescreens 1,2,3,5,6,7; have all that you want in screen 4?
for the wallpaper, add some black to the left and right of , this will then make the wallpaper pop up in the centre of the scene and the black will only be seen on screens 1,2,3,5,6,7 (which you do not use)
Thanks for your help but its like hidde the dust under the carpet looks clean but isn't really
I prefer to wait for another purpose.
I only use 3 home screens myself - 3, 4 and 5 - would be nice to turn off the screens you don't want ala LauncherPro
Weird that, I was looking for a ROM with 9 homescreens! Haha, is it even possible?

[Q] Changing the layout of my application list.

Hey guys, I just got my desire z, love the.phone but i want to make some adjustments.

You could install Touch Wiz. But you'd get no Sense widgets.
How do I go about doing this?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I am also interested if anyone knows of any Sense mods or homescreen replacements that have app drawers like TouchWiz. I hate the vertical scrolling. The paged horizontal scrolling seems much more friendly and quicker.
Search for touchwiz3.apk in desire or nexus forums, it is around somewhere.

I tried out touchwiz.. I like some parts of it but hate others. Thanks though.
ADW Launcher has an option for horizontal scrolling rather than vertical scrolling of the app list. It also allows you to customise the number of homescreens - check that out from the Market. You will, however, be unable to use any of the HTC Sense widgets while you are using ADW.
I'll check it out. I've used it in Cyanogenmod.. I didn't like it then (at all). It seems 'rough'. Maybe it's better since I tried it.
Yeah, adw.launcher does about everything you asked. I used it for a day or two, but I personally prefer LauncherPro, it doesn't offer Horizontal scrolling though.

Is it possible to get the stock ics vanilla launcher without rooting?

The question is clear I guess.
I just bought my htc one and I was thinking some time of non root customization on my phone
Though I will root it sometime later.
Also, are there any chances of jellybean coming to this device?
How does the homescreen customization looks like in ICS? Does a dialog box appear, or something like honeycomb carousel?

Nova launcher is what you are looking for.

I would personally recommend Apex Launcher, it's faster, and has more customizations.
Check this out, just found it http://phandroid.com/2012/12/15/20-...-stock-android-experience-without-root-guide/
There is many just look for em in the playstore

[Q] jelly bean roms no more sliding wallpaper?

hi all, i just flashed my phone to ARHD 15.0 and i noticed that when i slide left/right in the home screen, the wallpaper no longer slide, is there a setting for this feature to be enabled? i cant seem to find it
thanks!
Wallpaper scrolling in the latest jellybean update has been disabled. The same must have been done with your rom.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
ohh, i see.. that kinda sucks anyways, may i ask why they disabled the feature? or can you point me to any links about this getting removed? thanks for the reply!
I think its something to do with a Apple patent. Apple are pure patent trolls and i hate them for that.

I guess it was basically because to allow the complete rotation of home screen.
also you can try different launchers.. wallpaper scrolling would work fine. It has been disabled with just rosie
Try apex or nova launchers.
I hate the way they got rid of it. It was something really cool in android, and I don't want to use a different luancher because senses looks nice also the extra ram usage, and its to much hasle to use Rom cleaner.
I'm pretty sure our awesome Devs will be able to add this feature to custom JB Roms.
6 screens
Anybody notice we only have 6 instead of 7 screens? There's a big gap where the seventh screen was supposed to be.
