Root Why no Rotation Animation?

I must be missing something, I'm running number 2 and my screen rotates even the settings rotates

the OP is talking about a transition effect when rotating. Personally I have never paid attention to see if there have been transitions on the other devices I've had when rotating the screen lol

mmk so its just nit picking:p I've never noticed anything different my self, and I've had several android devices. I know some manufactures take that out, they say it causes lag, In fact I think google them selfs don't put it in the new builds.

Whaaaaat? Don't ICS and JB have the animations like that by default now? What did you mean when you said that Google doesn't put it in new builds?

The animation while rotating the screen. That's the one I'm talking about.

I've had several tablet's running ICS and none of them have that, I had a chance to play with the nexus 7 and didn't notice it on there, I seen in a video review, they were complaining about not haivng a "smooth rotation animation and they said they contacted Google and Google told them they don't put that in by default because it causes lag.
 
ok so i just pulled my asus transformer out, its running asus's Stock ICS and there is no fancy animation, it just rotates.
 
On my Hell's Fire ICS on the kindle had this animation but it was custom built, but as long as my device is running A1, i dont need animations...:D

maybe for you all but not me....this fire wont be quenched until theres success....this might be just a another useless feature to you guys but this is a gem in my eyes...it just doesnt make sense that every other technically subpar phone can be modded to achieve this but our beloved Esteems...this just adds more weight to the diehard iphone user's fragmentation arguement ....and one thing i hate is being 1uped by a effing iSheep "diva"/primadonna

Lag i believe is not a real factor....my admire performs the animation effortlessly with no latency...its damn near as nimble as the iphone's rotation animation...my Evo might take literally a second longer but thats becasue of MIUI, and if youre familiar then you know that MIUI (or any heavily themed builds) are slightly slower compared to traditional AOSP

Has any devs seen this??? i know what it reads but the OP has been proven wrong in that its not only limited to Samsung phones and CM based Roms...

Soooooooo.... basically youre telling me that i should just give up and move on to a more popular handset with a broader developer base...right? unless a certain feature piques your personal interests or youre not experienced enuff to implement it then its a "no-go"...right?

Lovely

time to sell my Esteem

basically your saying ur going to leave a phone and it's community beacause no1 has done a mod to give your screen rotation an transition effect? thats sad im sorry.
 
I also would like my screen to have a rotation transition.. But there is no way in the world I would sell my Esteem bc it doesn't have that feature. There's a lot of better things that you can do.
 
We have obviously misplaced the embroidered pillow each member gets upon joining that states clearly (in needlepoint by my grandmother) that we attack issues, not each other.

Feel free to express your opinions about devices, carriers, ROM's etc. but do not turn it into a bash-fest on what dev's do or do not do (for free, on their own time) nor should members expressing their opinions be subjected to the Spanish Inquisition, unless your name is Cardinal Fang (And I know Cardinal Fang personally, so don't try and impersonate him.)

Now, if everybody has returned to normal atmospheric pressure, you may get back to the development and discussion of rom's for the Esteem (remember that? or was that too long ago?)
 
Luna if u wish u may close this thread since everything that needed to be discussed has been said and if shiny or any1 else wants to release such a mod they can make a new thread.
