I have a problem with my tab, I have it for about 2 weeks and all this time I had the lockscreen disabled and today I've enabled the lockscreen and I have a big problem : it is only on portrait mode, I've wiped cache in Twrp, tried everything but the lockscreen is only in portrait mode. When I unlocked it, it switches to landscape. Autorotate is on, I use athe tablet mostly in landscape mode. What should I do? Thank you

Hi, do you have xposed and gravity box installed?

That is caused by gravity box. I havent used xposed and gravitybox in months.... So go into gravitybox, then lockscreen, then enable auto rotate in lock screen. I cant remember fully as I havent used it in ages. Someone correct me if I am wrong
Thank you so much, in Gravity Box the Lockscreen rotation was unticked. Checked that then restared and everything is working just fine

Hey Guyz
I bought yesterday a Note 2
But the problem when i open my camera the settings (flash ... etc ) are rotated i dont know why
like it thinks am holding my phone upside down
is there any solution for this ? i tried updating the Software , same problem ? do you think i have to return the phone ?
Well that is weird! The icons should rotate as the phone rotates. Check to see if you have smart rotation activated. It should not make any difference but it's worth checking.

i know:s
I figured that its a manufacturer problem
I noticed that every program is not rotating not only the camera
So after updating to 4.4.2 I can't rotate the screen anymore yes I have set it to auto rotate and I have factory reset the device to anybody with the same problem that fixed it and can tell me I would greatly appreciated it

Thanks for bringing this up. I thought I did something wrong.
In my case, I rooted the device after the 4.4.2 update.
Anybody know a solution?
I solved it by removing the gravitybox module (part of Xposed installer). Now the screen autorotates correctly on lockscreen.
Update: seems like I completely missed the option to enable rotate screen the gravity box module.
So all fine now. But strange that the default setting in gravity box module does not respect system setting to auto rotate.
Sorry for the false alarm.
Hi all,
I often use my tab in an upside down landscape view when charging port is at the top). I typically do this if i need to charge it and use it at the same time. The cable, imho, is simply more manageable. After a reboot, I noticed two things:
1. the lock screen only displays in portrait mode and won't rotate.
2. once unlocked the tab display will rotate 270 degrees, every way but upside down landscape
3. the hard button behavior has changed. a long press offers a power off menu, whereas before it displayed recent apps
I'm not aware of any settings i changed, nor did i add, remove, or alter any apps.
the device has been rooted for several months running the stock rom without a glitch.
Any suggeations would be deeply appreciated.
If you installed wanam, it defaults to that, you could play around with wanam lock screen and system settings

That was exactly it, problem solved. I may have changed something some time ago and never rebooted. Thank you so much!
I can't seem to get my rotate icon to work on Developer Preview 2. I've turned off the Auto-Rotation option, but it's still not showing up. I wasn't a part of the 1st Developer Preview, but I don't think that plays a factor. Is anyone else experiencing this?

it works for me. it doesn't show up unless I rotate the phone.
I can't get it to appear for the life of me! It's driving me nuts!
if you have auto-rotate enabled in display settings, it will NOT show up. If its disabled, you should see the icon if you rotate the screeen
My auto rotate is turned off (not blue), but when I go to YouTube, for example, and attempt to rotate the phone, the rotate icon toggle doesn't appear. I cannot FOR THE LIFE OF ME figure out why.

Just tested and it appears to the far right of the home button.

It finally works. It started showing up a few minutes ago. Go figure!
still doesn't work for me, have you done anything to enable it ?
No. It just started appearing. Very odd!
Ya. I can't get it to work either. Tried everything. Hopefully mine will "just start to work" to.
I just ended up doing a clean flash and now it works.
So one of the reasons I updated for beta was that auto rotation feature. That even if I have it disabled my phone will suggest me on my navigation bar that I can click and change the orientation of the screen.
However I don't know if it's only me but it's not working at all. I'm on YouTube , or chrome or any other app and that aware button that should appear on my navigation but just doesn't appear at all. Every time I want to change to landscape I need to scroll my status bar and enable it on quick actions.
Anyone expericing the same problem or knows how to fix it?
Thanks for your help in advance
Not me...
How did You get P? By updating or flashing the image? Did you performed the Factory Reset?
I'm also facing the same problem. I did ota update from DP1

From the normal view (video at top, details and comments below) if I rotate device landscape nothing happens.
If I press the expand icon in corner of video it goes fullscreen and landscape even when holding device portrait.

You clearly don't know what I'm talking about.
We this video with the new feature is Android P. Around 2m20s it shows the new feature that, even if you phone has the auto rotation OFF, when you rotate your device, a new icon appears on your navigation bars where you can tap and change the display to landscape. All with auto rotation OFF. To give you the opportunity to change it or not. If you have the auto rotation ON, Everytime you change your home orientation, it will go landscape mode even if you don't want to.
So that's the feature that's not working on mine. With auto rotation OFF ( how it should be ) when im in chrome, in YouTube , in all other apps and I change my screen orientation I don't get the icon appearing in navigation bar.

Sorry for the confusion.
What I mean is auto rotate works fine.
Even the new feature of rotation suggestion also works fine for me.
Check my screen shot attached. Rotation suggest icon is properly appearing in my nav bar when auto rotate off in youtube. However the icon appears for few seconds time limit and when we click it it stays with nav bar to re-rotate.
I shared build number to see there might be any differences due to region or something etc...
