How to disable dialer screen rotation? - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Note 2 is a huge device, I hate the screen rotates when I already have difficulty to reach the dial pad. How do I disable the rotation on dialer screen only without installing new apps?

I think that's not possible on stock rom. Maybe on custom roms but I can't tell you since I'm on stock

If your rooted the xposed app mod will setbthe orientation on any app. There are a couple of apps on the play store than lock the screen in whatever mode you want

Always Landscape

Hi,
is it possbile to use the Galaxy Nexus completly in landscape.
The problem is, if I deactivate the automatic display rotation the phone always use the protrait mode.
Galaxy Nexus
Android 2.0.4
Stock - non root
Make sure you turn off rotation whilst the device is in landscape and it should lock it to landscape. Just tried and it worked for me.

Nope... tried this 3 times or so^^
Get "Orientation Control" from the Market. It will allow you to lock an orientation.
This popular app will do exactly that and lock it into landscape for you...amongst other features

totally replace lockscreen ?

hi all
is it possible to completely replace the stock lock screen with another ?
i understand you can download lock screen replacements from the play store but they don't actually replace the lock screen, on may occasions if you lock and unlock within 1 to 2 seconds, the stock lock screen appears.
is there any way around this ?
There is no way around this unless you use a custom rom or what not. Just use the lock screen replacements on the market.

Why don't you just totally disable the stock lock screen in settings and then use a 3rd party lockscreen?

You think your such a bloody smart ass right ?
Well my friend you are
Thank you!!
The only issue I have is when using the Google now slide to unlock
It takes me to a strange Google now search page that also displays my previous search

anyone have this problem ?
I use the App Delayed Lock -it unlocks my SGN2 if is the device connecteded to my home or work WIFI and has some more unlock features (time, geocoordinates ec.) - realy great App

multi window rotation

back in ljc rotation depended on the active app, now in lk8 the rotation depends on the app that requests a certain rotation, any way to change this?
eg Netflix would be able to get put on top and when i selected the bottom app i could rotate any way i liked, now Netflix rotation is predominant and forces landscape while in multi window... I hate that.

Lock ups

I've been having an issue lately where my phone locks up.Sometimes It will happen after a reboot.. the screen will show half of the lock screen and half of the boot screen (and it will lock up in landscape). Strange thing is, I can here notifications while the screen is frozen.So it seems like it's booting up but the screen is frozen.
The other day I hung up on a call and put the phone in my pocket.. I went to get it and it was locked up with the dialer on the screen in landscape. But the power button and home button was able to make the phone goto sleep and wake up up.
It seems it always locks up in landscape.
This happens with multiple roms so I know it's not a rom issue. I always fully wipe when switching roms also. I've also tried wiping my internal storage and cleaning up my sdcard as well.
The other day I flashed back to stock and it didn't freeze. Although I didn't run it long enough I think.. I'm probably going to try stock again but dam it kills me to run stock lol
Just wondering if anyone had some input on my issue. if any other info will help determine the problem please ask.
Thanks in advance.

I've seen this with another user recently and it might be due to a kernel have you tried flashing a different kernel? And also many new ROMs are including landscape rotation in the lock screen and also an aosp lock screen which is very buggy have you tried disabling lock screen rotation or just disabling the whole system rotation?

Are you using a ROM with AOSP lock screen enabled?

hmm.. yes I was using asop lock but I could have sworn I've used it with no issues before.. might be just me though as I was flashing so many roms..lol..
Currently I'm using goodness 802 with tw lock,auto rotate disabled and its been fine. I'm going to enable auto rotate and leave tw lock enabled to see if that was it.

I found this out the hard way also: if you use AOSP lock screen you have to make sure all the TW lock screen options are off. If they're not then you get the stuck in landscape issue.
