Rotating home screen on Modaco r4 possible ?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello mates

Recently I've change my ROM with modaco's r4 ROM, but I notice that the home screen and apps can't rotate when I tilt my phone like it was with the original Orange ROM.

Anyone fix this or is it possible at all?

Thanks

BTW r4 is a great ROM. Thanks Paul!

Hi, are you sure it's enabled in Display settings (Settings -> Display)? It worked fine in R4 for me.

Mates,

You mean the "Orientation" option ?..yes it is fine ..I can rotate a lot of apps and the browser and etc...But I can't rotate the home screen and the menu where all the apps are. On the stock Orange Rom that was possible...

I barely got chance to play with stock Orange phone before I ROM-ed it, but don't recall the home screen rotating.

I've installed LauncherPro since r4 ROM-ing mine and that allows home screen rotation.

No way to rotate without LauncherPro ?

Ah - on a homescreen, press menu, -> preferences -> Behaviour settings, and select the option in there. Yes, you need Launcher Pro.

There should be some way to rotate without additional apps like LauncherPro...as it was possible with the stock ROM right?...or maybe it is not :rolleyes:

It may have been possible on the stock ROM, but by default Orange used their own launcher, and not the regular Android Launcher (which does not support rotation).
