Thumbs up Hope someone can give 6months old question's answer HERE

hi all, here's the 6months old question. Everyone wants this not only me.

Here's my question:



I want this iPhone/iPod screen ROTATING effect with the accelerometer. (Landscape/vertical) in our android. I ask this question when i was on android 2.1 but now its 2.3(gingerbread).

Also, i got this COMMENT when i asked this ques. 6 months ago.

"Once the new custom kernels are released with the FPS cap removed, screen transitions and other animations will be as smooth or even smoother than the iPhone's. I suggest waiting, jerpelea is working hard his own, as well as zdzihu."

So now, custom kernels are released and bootloader is also unlocked. Still, no one is working on this transition rotation effect.

Doesn't our phone already do that? Auto rotate?

tbh, I don't think android will do that.

API must be integrated in the OS from the very beginning since OS itself need to interrupt particular apps to draw the rotation.

This is not kernel/bootloader layer but the OS itself, which I guess Google also doesn't want to have some stupid patenting conflict with Apple. (same to WM7, W8, WebOS, blah blah)
