There's no way to get the homescreen to rotate unless you download launchers such as launcher pro or adw.

hmmm i guess ill have to go with another launcher, thanks!

the captive has the home screen rotation?

When I launch avatar it automatically rotates the screen and then stays that way to display the drm warning. Not really a fix, more of a bug you could take advantage of of you just want it rotated for games. As a real solution I would recommend launcher pro.

How does one benefit from swiping through their home screens in landscape mode?

Another thing that proves people like what they like. I hate my homescreen to rotate. I use LauncherPro and disabled it.

^ that could have been my post exactly.

To each his own, I guess. This really bothered me, so I started using Launcherpro and can't see myself going back...Touchwiz is pretty good, but coming from my G1 running CM6, it made me feel too locked down.

Technically speaking, TouchWiz changes much more than just the launcher and home screen.

Using a custom launcher only overwrites the TouchWiz launcher, it doesn't remove TouchWiz altogether.
