Camera app auto rotate. - Nexus 4 Themes and Apps

Has anyone got the default nexus 4 camera app that auto rotates even with screen rotation off.
I can't seem to find one that allows this.
If it works on your current Phone, please post it here for me to try.
Cheers

Sorry I had it, but I lost it.

It is easy to do this using Tasker app. Let me know if you need the profile.
Profile context: launch app (camera)
Task: auto-rotate (off)

+1 on using Tasker for this.

From my experience (stock rooted), even with rotation off, the pictures get saved in the proper orientation depending on how I hold it. The bets part about having rotation of is that you don't get the whole screen to rotate, which delays the camera a lot. Try it!

This is something annoying that Google should fix, normally, its just the buttons which rotate, not the whole screen

Tasker App in CM10

I seem to be having issues running Tasker on CM10. It doesn't crash and it says the profiles are running but it doesn't do anything.
Is anyone rocking the Tasker on CM10?
Thanks.

Works fine over here on CM10. Enabling/Disabling GPS doesn't work, but silencing the phone on a schedule and opening Spotify when headphones are plugged in works just fine.

Interesting... I'm trying to increase the brightness every time I use YouTube and gallery. I will double check.

Create a Profile that activates when the app is started, ending when the application exits. Start task should be auto brightness off, set brightness to 255. End task just turns auto brightness back on.

How is your task set up? And it also works to enable lux auto brightness at night so I would assume it can adjust brightness overall.

If your screen is set to auto brightness, you need to turn that off before it can be manually adjusted. Your profile should look something like this:
Starting YouTube:
Auto brightness: Off
Brightness: 255
Ending YouTube:
Auto brightness: On

I did what you said and it does not work. I even turn the auto screen off and ran it with no success.
I should try other profiles to see if it is me not knowing how to create them or the app or something.
What other profiles do you find yourself running.

I haven't made one yet but I'll probably make an auto sync toggle profile to sync mail, etc. I've been looking for some battery savers but last time I tried to disable data a la JuiceDefender I stopped receiving texts for some weird reason.
That's odd. I know for a fact the brightness adjustments work. I'm using the latest CM10. I just built a profile for the YouTube app and it works as expected.
Check attached images. Also, be sure the profile is enabled (green check mark), and that Tasker is on (On button, bottom right corner of screen).

What bothers me is that when I open YouTube, Tasker says that is running the profile but the screen brightness does not change at all. I will reinstall and see if it works and let you know.
I'm running CM10 8-14 version as it runs smooth with no flickering. I'm also running Justin bean inverted g apps, could that be the problem?

In your latest post with attachments, post #11, here is what you are telling Tasker to do:
1: When YouTube app starts, Autobrightness Off (don't know what this task contains, as there is no screenshot of it).
2. When YouTube app closes, Brightness set to 255.
Your profile still doesn't match my attached pictures on page one (or you haven't uploaded new screenshots). Make it identical to mine.
If it still doesn't work, I suspect its your version of CM10. Update it. I know that's not the answer you want, but if the above doesn't work, that's the only one left.

That's for all the help but it didn't work and I did exactly as you suggested. Take a look. It shows as running but it is not turning off the auto brightness. I have tried turning it manually before running the Tasker with no success.
I guess I'll just give it another try once I update the cm10 but I'm happy with the older version and wouldn't want to risk getting all the problem(flickering, echoes, call delay) present on the newer versions.
What version are you on?

Does the Gallery Brightness profile do the same thing? Does that one work?

Always running the latest version. Echoes and call delay were fixed last week. The only flickering that bothers me, is that when I exit certain applications (like Apparatus), the screen has a brightness seizure for a couple seconds. The other flickers look like a redraw; nitpicking. You can always nandroid the current install.

yeah in my GPS on/off profile it always spazzes out at random intervals. and even though i have the profiles connected to cell towers and not GPS or Net, im pretty convinced it's somehow draining my battery. i had no real issues with CM10 (aside from the documented flicker and call delay) until i installed and started trying to use Tasker. now the GPS is glitchy, the vibration turns on/off at random times, so does the wifi and worst yet, actual cell reception gets knocked out altogether. i've triple checked my settings and i know it's not the profiles themselves. i really hope the stable version of CM10 will play nice with Tasker because its such a sweet app.
For GPS, install Secure Settings. It's free and in Play Store. Never have an issue with it controlling GPS from Tasker.

Did you calibrate the gyroscope on a very flat, level surface?

Is there a mod that will turn off my screen when I close my flip-cover?

I have the Samsung Flip Cover on my GN2. I would like to have the screen turn off whenever I close the cover. Is there a setting or app that does this?
Thanks.
Ah just found this. Will see if it works
Pseudo-Smart Cover - Cover turns screen off when closed.

** Of the Market Apps available, Screen Standby seems to work the best for me.
I've been using Intellicover for this very purpose and it works great. Once you have it set up. The whole idea is annoying for when you accidentally slide over the proximity sensor and your screen goes dark.
But on the plus side, I can now "magically" turn my phone on by waving my hand over it!

Yeah it can be a pain in the butt, especially when writing notes and you keep turning the screen off. I eventually decided to just push the power button before I close the front cover.

I found "case sensor for tablets" in play when I had my tab. It should work. It might also be paid? Cool thing about it was you can set a timer so it turns off say 3 seconds after closed vs if you accidentally cover it.

I use "proximity screen off" it works great and has lots of options, Like delay so you won't accidently turn off. And an excluded apps list so you can turn it off in certain apps only.there is a Free version too. I donated its a great app.

Screen rotation lag

Any fix for this? Un rooted because I have a mac. I changed animation speeds to .5 across the boards, but it takes 2 seconds to rotate the screen

Do you have smart rotation enabled?
Smart rotation, enabled or disabled still lags 2 Seconds at least

I have smart cover enabled and mine does not lag at all, 2 seconds is not on.

OK.. This has bothered me for a week. I did some testing on this and found on my Galaxy, if you do the following:
Go into Settings
then Controls
then 'Smart Screen'
Disable 'Smart Rotation'
Reboot / Restart Tablet
I gained just over a second in rotation speed..
Testing with a Stopwatch it went from 2.0+ seconds to around 0.93 seconds.
Note: Enabling Smart Stay, Smart Pause, or Smart scroll made NO difference..
Samsung Galaxy Tablet 10.1 2014 SM-P600
Android version 4.3
Nova Launcher Prime 2.3
My first note rotated instantly compared to my second one. I returned it due to loose spen slot. I wish I'd just kept it. I posted a video on YouTube. Fast forward to the last 30 seconds. Animation set to 1.5x

Problems clicking on install

Anyone else having issues clicking install when you load a new app? The area on the screen works fine, its only when installing. I rotate the screen from portrait to landscape and back again to fix issue.
I have had this on several devices, but only if an app that overlays something on the screen is running. If you have an auto brightness app rubbing or something like that try shutting it off.
