Maybe what you expected by this module is not what it does. It prevents that apps can change the current orientation.
If you have a device with default landscape orientation, and oyu open an app like https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jumobile.manager.systemapp it switches to poritrait - but not with this module
Okay I'm now confused
, do you mean like if I opened an app like fi.android.inetkeyapplication which is a portrait app on my tablet which is a landscape device, the app should open in landscape mode instead of portrait, right??? And if I was to rotate my tablet to portrait it should change the app to portrait and also the other way round it should change to landscape?
Okay I'm now confused
Yes. But apps which force a special orientation *could* exit and you have to restart it if you rotate your device which changes orientation. I've attached screenshots of inetkey (read filenames)

Okay but then surprisingly it does not work like that on my device, when I open the app on my tablet it changes it to portrait and it locks it like that, i have to close the app to change the rotation
In your log above it shows "allow" to change the orientation, so you should not uncomment it in the config file
Oh I'm so sorry man for all the trouble I never understood you fully then, I wrote the # back in the config file and rebooted now it does rotate
:good:. I thought that you meant that if I want it to rotate I have to uncomment the package names with a #. But now I fully understand you meant that if it does rotate while I don't want it to I should uncomment the package name. Though the log file is now misleading the app does rotate but it says "block" instead of allow, but anyway I'm glad that it works well thanks bro.:good:BTW how can I make it stop from logging too much as it's flooding my xposed log even after commenting "debug"

You have the debug version installed, it loggs always much. Just install the version from Market/Repository again.
Maybe some day I add a full gui, if i have time
Oops kinda funny that the one from the repository does not work well. When I install it and using the same config file it does not rotate again
^^ I compiled latest version and attached without debug, only minor changes, not enough for an update I think. From my log: logging intendation, handling of packagenames with whitespaces, some more default apps (only if the file does not exist & is created by the app). Maybe I fixed something but did forget to write it down?
Bro, it does not work again with that new version.
I have then concluded that it will never work on my device, so i removed it, and found an app called Rotation which works well. So sorry for all the trouble I'll now use that app only. Anyway thanks for all the hard work you put in this module. Cheers:good:

Version updated, there where some apps which did not work (like Instagram)
In 1.1 was a little brain bug - apps could set desired orientation as a default in manifest or dynamically by code at runtime - and only the 1st was changed in 1.1. That worked with the apps I used, but not instagram...
Version 1.3, broke compatibility with KitKat, reverted to 1.2, says it requires xposed api above 60

Hi, I currently use 'rotation_forcer' to keep everything in landscape mode and it works with everything except system app remover so I was excited to see yours mention that app specifically. However, disabling my existing app and installing yours now has the effect of no app staying in landscape mode.The text file your app makes, am I supposed to put the # in front to stop them rotating? Because if so, it doesn't seem to have any effect. :crying:
This is on my Lenovo running stock 4.2.2. On my HP Slate 21 Pro running stock 4.3 it does work though Apart from the different JB version, the Lenovo is running Google Now Launcher but the HP is running the stock launcher, could this be the reason?
Many thanks
Adrian

@adrian.aitken: This module does not allow the apps to change the orientation. Eg if you have a tablet which is native in landscape mode, some apps force portrait.
You want to change some device like Nexus 7 which is default portrait to landscape? This could be archived by the 2 sql statments i found here: http://android.stackexchange.com/qu...fault-screen-orientation-in-android-specified

17Apps use current orientation.
Annoyed apps changing current screen orientation? Try this module!
If you are using in landscape, some apps force orientation to portrait. So you have to rotate you device to use this app which is a bad user experience. With this module these apps don't change anymore the screen orientation and you could use it in current orientation. An example of such an app is System app remover
There are 2 apps with same effect, but
HaveOwnOrientation (free): This app has no user interface. Enable it in Xposed - reboot - done.
OwnOrientation (donate): User interface for simple configuring, logging etc
IMPORTANT
Xposed needs root access for installation

Why these apps? To lazy to rotate the device!2
Second that, this module is must have but makes camera almost unusable (tried this on my Note 3)
+1 for application settings for blacklist2Okay okay, rudimentary block list added, no time atm for full gui. Just place package names in the file of apps which should not be blocked.
If you dont know the package name
- open Play Store in webbrowser, the ?id= part of the ur is the app
- or enable debug in the module, it shows all package names in xposed log
- or search in the created blockfile the app, but there are no new installed apps added
