Help Landscaping

[miss_vickies]

morning Phandroids!

i think i have some issues with my Landscape mode...

it works fine in web pages and some apps... however, it does not work on my stock home screen and i see people upload landscape pictures of their home screens!... what am i missing?

also, as per one of the topics in the forum, someone suggested to use Desk Clock, which then dims to just show time and weather. First time it worked great. It went into landscape and light dimmed. When I tried again, no such luck!

I still dont have split screen updates, if that had anything to do with it.


Help!!

TY!

"Screen rotation" must be turned on:

If no joy, then you need a 3rd party home launcher such as "Launcher Pro" to allow for home screen rotation.

I think the only way to have the stock home screens in landscape is to download a 3rd party app like Nova.

There's a 3rd party app called 'Rotation Locker' that can put the TouchWiz home screen into landscape. You have to do it manually though.

I use"rotation control" from the play store. Its ,in my opinion, the best rotation app and has a bunch of options. Works fantastic.
