Anyway to disable autorotate for homescreens only and not everything else?

I think Cyan's Rom allows that. Not sure otherwise. Do you use Spare Parts? It might have that option too.

hmmm wierd i dont see anything that only turns off homescreen auto rotate either, either you can turn if off completely or you can't kinda sucks, gets kinda annoying to wait for it to go back to portrait everytime you take it out of the pocket.

Menu>Settings>ADWLauncher>System Prefs>Orientation Sensor ?

[Q] ICS CWM9 Beta0 Ics Epic 4g WHy won't screen auto rotate turn off?

Just some questions, My phone is somehow always set on Auto rotate even when the selection for it is off. I was wondering If any, most likely, if anyone has had this small but annoying issue before? One more thing about the phones flash is that just a bug with this build? or can it be fixed via user?
Thanks for the listen

There is a great Q&A thread for CM9 here that has lots of helpful people in it. Plus you should make your title an actual question.
With that said did you turn off auto-rotate in all 3 places?

Very helpful thread I didn't see the one in Accessibility but still after enabling all rebooting then turning them off, this screen continues to auto rotate. I don't know what could be wrong? is there a way to block it using the terminal emulator?

What is CWM9? Sorry had to say it

Also are you using the stock launcher? If not does your launcher have a rotate setting?

No, smart stay works when the room is lit but I like to watch videos in bed which makes it impossible because smart stay doesnt work in dark.

I just want to open browser and be able to watch damn videos. Why do I need to install screen timeout apps and click it everytime I need to wqtch something. How convenient is this?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2

Yeah , it's annoying.
But I guess Android Jellybean system files dont support adobe flash out of box so maybe tweaking system files for screen time to support flashplayer is needed.

Search for "Screen On" on Google Play. Free app, no ads. Tick the stock Internet browser and enable the service within the app (disable the annoying icon in the notifications bar within the settings). Voila, issue resolved.

Pretty awesome

Sweet, Holo Locker fixed my lock screen problem. I don't have to enter my pattern each time finally. That's the only one I really used from this haha. Thanks so much!
Just a note: The 4.1 Messaging app does have some issues. Some contacts don't appear as they should, just numbers. And I think MMS was broken?

thank you so much, i've been missing the hell out of my galaxy nexus.

Glad you got your issue fixed.
This 4.1 Messaging has MMS working. One of the few I found that had it working. Haven't had the contact issue thing, everything is working fine.

Hm, interesting. MMS works, but I still have the contacts issue Oh well. Thanks for your hard work!

How did you get that to work? I tried setting the 'Lock timer' in 'Lock screen' under system settings to various settings other than 'immediately' as well as 'power button instantly locks' to on or off to no avail. All that happens is when I turn the phone on, it just immediately shows the app I recently had open.

The Holo lock screen shows for me, just wait a few seconds and it should be there. If i do too quickly, then it just gives me my app too lol.

It's possible we are describing two different use case scenarios. Do you have 'enable security lock' enabled in holo locker settings?
I would like it so that I can specify a lock timer in system settings to only bring up the pattern unlock after a set amount of time while at the same time always bringing up the holo-locker screen when I press the power button to turn the screen on (before the pattern/pin unlock comes up). As far as I know, the built-in slide to unlock won't show when you have a pattern or pin lock enabled (non-rooted). Sounds confusing when typing it out, does what I'm trying to describe make sense to anyone?

Not sure. I just cleared all my credentials and got the swipe back.

OK, I don't know what I did, but it finally started working the way I wanted to. Strange, I tried rebooting, waiting a while between turning the phone off/on, different setting configs and nothing seemed to work. Thanks anyway, just glad it works now.

Audio Improvement
I initially posted in the wrong thread, do you guys have any idea about DSP manager working on this phone yet? An almost perfect phone, save for the sub-par audio.

[APP] Google Edition ROMs - Disable Button Lights

Simply install the app, run it, and toggle your lights on or off, then your settings are remembered at boot.
UPDATE: 7/28/13
-- Added option to keep lights always on.

I hate the back lights being on.I love to just see pure screen.I also painted the Samsung logo and the ear piece and the home button areas that are silver.So now my phone is plush black .I have the black model. Looks clean like a nexus. Thanks goggle ROM.
Sent from my SGH-M919G using xda premium

Thanks, been looking for a possibility to turn off the lights permanently and not just until the next restart of the phone. But now I have the icon of your app in my app browser. Is there and easy way to hide it? I Just have to do the setting once and then I don't need it anymore.

Thanks for making this program.
It didn't fix the issue I was having --- On M919 Tmobile ROMs, the soft keys come on any time you touch the screen. I had an l337M and the keys only come on when you touch them. Is there any way to restore this functionality? I hate having to choose between keeping them on all the time, or off... (I know that wasn't why you wrote this program, but I'm hoping you or someone could point me in the right direction...)

Honestly, not trying to be rude, but.. doesnt that sort of defeat the whole purpose? If you touch the buttons when the lights are off, you obviously know where they are, so why turn on the lights? Lol. Not trying to be rude.. just a thought i had.

I know what you're saying, but that's the default behaviour on the l337M's (At least on Rogers). I read some reviews where someone mentioned the same thing... I don't mind it though. It's better then having them on all the time.

This doesn't seem to do anything on 4.3, does it require root?

This is EXACTLY what I've been looking for, thanks! I am running stock 4.3 Google Ed. on my AT&T S4 and wanted to use the onscreen nav buttons mod. The onscreen button build.prop mod worked well, but it was annoying have the capacative lights still light up when I tapped the onscreen buttons.
Would anyone happen to know how to disable them completely?

Thanks!! Greatly appreciated!
And to disable the buttons completely, there is a file under /system/usr/keylayout
That needs editing. Can't remember which one exactly. A lot of people actually remap them to other functions to get more use out of them.
