[Q] Landscape TW - Sprint Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've been searching for either a flash able zip or xposed module that allows touchwiz to rotate into landscape.
Has anyone come across something?

Try Nova Launcher

Xposed module app settings go to touchwizhome.apk orientation force rotation or search note 3 forums for rotating twlauncher

This is the way to do it. The problem is, if you rotate the touch wiz home screen, some stuff on screen gets cut off.

Thank you both. I will give it a shot.

Wallpaper Cropping Glitch

Has anyone experienced the phenomenon shown in the two images below?
- My phone is unlocked and rooted.
- I am running LiquidSmooth v1.35
- I am also running Franco Milestone 3 kernel
It seems wallpapers will not behave correctly when my phone is in landscape mode. Anybody have some ideas?
I have tried "Wallpaper Wizardrii" which hasn't worked. This happens with both the stock launcher and the Apex launcher.
what is the resolution of the wallpaper?
That particular one is 1280x800. I set the wallpaper, just now, using the gallery "set as" function but while in landscape mode and it has eliminated the black bands on either side. However the transition from portrait to landscape is ugly (the wallpaper jumps around a bit before settling).
I don't remember it being like this in the past. If anyone has any fixes, they would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
I thought the last thing I did fixed it... but a few rotations later it was back to misaligned.
Same thing happens here on stock rom rooted using apex.

Try using Quick Pic to set the wallpaper.

Unfortunately wizard or quickpic didn't work for me either.
Edit;
I was going to suggest maybe its some kind of resolution issue but this happens even using the stock provided wall papers and built in wall paper wall paper picker app.

I hate the new ICS wallpaper implementation. Especially, because I always turn off the "Scrolling Wallpaper" option. And I always have to crop my wallpapers to make them fit my screen :X
So this is ICS bug not launcher?

I'm pretty certain that landscape mode isn't supported by the stock ICS launcher, is it?

I dont think it does.
OP, i do not have this issue.
at the time of reading this, i had a wallpaper set to not scroll, and i enabled horizontal lock screen. i had the issue you were talking about.
once i enabled scrolling wallpaper, and reset the wallpaper (same one) i had full screen wallpaper on the hoizontal lock screen.
seems to be an issue with scrolling wallpapers, which also isn't an option to disable on the stock launcher.

Yeah your right forgot about that. Still though, I'm sure older versions of apex displayed the wall paper right in landscape, only since the recent betas it started playing up.

I'm pretty sure the stock launcher supports landscape mode. It happens when you choose Settings > Display > Auto-rotate screen.
Update: I just switched back the the stock launcher and it does auto-rotate AND has the glitch.

Stock rom stock launcher won't auto rotate for me. I'm sure the stock launcher actually supports it but stock rom doesn't and requires tablet mode or something for it to be landscape. I'm sure this is why people started switching to 3rd party launchers to use landscape mode.
Are you on stock rom?

Iv just decided to suck it up for now and use scrolling wall paper even though I don't really want to but better than looking broken.

[Q] Anyone know where I can get a AOSP Lockscreen?

As the title suggests. Tried the app in play store didnt like it as there was a delay and sometimes touchwiz lockscreen showed up. Ill take any suggestions.

Root and use Xposed framework. There is a module for what your asking.

Search for Xposed framework. I think it's in general. Not tmob general. After you have Xposed squared goto download and sift through the modules. Not 100% sure if it works on note3. In xda portal I believe it said it should work on gs3 and note2. Some of the other modules aren't 100% on note3 either but many of them work or partially work. I would think the aosp lock screen would work.

AOSP lockscreen does not work on our Note 3. I tried multiple ones and it changed nothing.

Damn. Sorry. I don't know where else to go for that. Smasung has it's own little shortcut but I would prefer the aosp one myself though I use neither. Maybe see if the Samsung shortcut thing will work for you.

I've been using the paid widget locker for years, even when I had a nexus. You can setup your lockscreen to be just like ASOP and add additional shortcuts on the slider ring. Mine has shortcuts to camera, one for video recording, one for my flashlight, google plus and of course, unlocking.
Holo Locker.
Implementation of lockscreen related things is so different on TouchWiz 4.3... not surprised the xposed mod didn't work. I didn't see anything that immediately popped out as "oh hey there's the aosp lockscreen info" when I was poking around, and from what I can tell it seems like elements of the aosp lockscreen are sort of integrated and hybridized into the stock lockscreen... Truth be told I didn't look into it all that much yet, but just wanted to chime in to mention how crazy different lockscreen setup is now

Right, Gravity Box JB. Also the Xperia/AOSP NavBar Buttons and XPosed Additions modules.
XPosed Framework itself works perfectly on the 7a. The XPosed Additions module causes some problems so I needed to deactivate this one temporarily. I ran into one boot loop out of all sudden, no idea if this was caused by XPosed.

Did you manage to disable the hardware buttons also? Also, a lot of functions of GravityBox are not working (obviously), so how did you get the clock to center? Mine isn't...

The center clock seems to be a feature of ColorOS 2.0, I didn't change anything! Are you running 1.2?
Unfortunately my hardware keys still respond to touch. XPosed Additions should be used to disable these, but the module interferes with something in ColorOS and makes it crash every few minutes. I haven't found another way to disable them, but with the Find 5, you could disable them by editing a certain file in the /system partition, so I guess this should work on the 7a too. I haven't figured out which file to edit though.

Is there a ColorOS 2.0 for the U.S. X9006 variant? I didn't think there was..
The same one can be installed on both international and US variants. The root zip works with both too.

Nova launcher with Beweather widget. Custom shortcuts how? There's a free version on the playstore to see if it does what you want. The iconset name used there is called "fireworks"
Thanks, I'll look into it. Most clock/weather widget apps allow you to set shortcuts to it such as the calender to the date, clock app to the time, forcast to the weather portion, etc. Its best when you can choose your own shortcuts rather than using the system defaults. For example you may have a alarm clock app you use off the market you would rather use than the built in alarm clock and so on.
Can someone remove the vibration in menu button of nova launcher ? Ahhe

Ok Google for 3rd party activities - Launch Google Now in any app or launcher by saying "Okay Google"
Quick Access - Launch selected apps over pin/swipe locked screen.
