(Q) Anyone having issue with the screen rotation? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers

I have a s8+ from Verizon and whenever I enable screen rotation, it doesn't rotate, and if it does it takes a long time to change orientation, and it gets stuck in that orientation until I turn screen rotation off. And this is with all apps, it's not that bad on YouTube but all other apps it struggles. Has anyone had this problem?

I have the same issue and all I can suggest is a temporary fix. Install xposed and get forced screen rotation mod. I also added the menu button to my navbar through GravityBox and assigned screen rotation to the long press,for quick access

I did and I fixed it. In the quick settings panel click the icon that says Portrait.
EDIT:
I misread the original post. My solution may not apply to your problem. Mine was not rotating and I couldn't find the setting anywhere! I was looking for the screen rotation icon - not a "portrait" icon.

[Q] Disable screen rotation for Alarm pop-up in lockscreen

When in the lockscreen, only portrait mode is available whether screen rotation is enabled or not. However, when the alarm goes off, the pop up rotates depending on the orientation if screen rotation is enabled. If you;re half asleep and pick up the phone at an akward angle, the screen rotates just as you tap on the screen. Half the time, it's no problem. The other half, though, I end up tapping dismiss instead of snooze. Is there a way of locking the pop up at a fixed orientation (landscape or portrait, doesn't really matter) without having to disable screen rotation?

screen rotation no longer functional

Recently, my screen rotation stopped working. If I select screen rotation from the drop down menu it would flip the phone into portrait mode. I wanted it to be locked in landscape mode instead. I don't know how it happened and I'm still on stock Rom but rooted. Any ideas how to fix it?

Screen orientation

This is kind of a moot problem but here goes. I have the Samsung book cover and I use the day note feature. Up until a little bit ago when I opened the top it would display the day note in landscape mode. Now it always displays in portrait mode regardless of the tablet's orientation. I disabled the day note feature and the lock screen is being displayed in portrait mode regardless of orientation. After unlocking it will go to landscape mode. Is their any way to get the landscape orientation back on the lock screen or when using day note?
Check Setting in Xposed Modules

I noticed that your phone was rooted, so if you have Xposed Framework installed, a few modules have auto rotate disable as default. I am only offering this advice, because I ran across this same problem.
If you don't have xposed Framework or Modules installed, check to make sure auto rotate is enabled.

Notification bar quick settings panel - reorder possible?

Hi,
I would like to change the notification bar quick settings panel shortcuts, basically reorder them. Because when in a call, sometimes the proximity sensor doesn't detect the ear properly and screen turns on. Then the phone goes into airplane mode because its located right at the top where your cheek touches the screen. I'm very annoyed with this. I have understood that the proximity thing has no solution. So how can I change position / remove airplane mode setting from there?

How to stop Home screen rotation?

Hi!
My Desire Eye's home screen has been rotating whenever I slightly tilt it since this morning and no, the Auto Rotation mode is not enabled. I did a soft reset but still the screen keeps rotating, and I can't find any solutions for it anywhere.
Usually, when Auto Rotate is ON it rotates almost every apps' screens but never the home screen or menu screen. When I woke up today somehow the Car mode was turned ON, but I exited it without doing anything else. I wonder if it caused something to change in my phone.
Does anyone know how to fix this? You'd save a life. :crying:
