[HOWTO] enable both in-app and lockscreen rotation on 11S (33R, 38R, 44S, 05Q)

[timothydonohue]

this should fix rotation on all apps. it definitely fixes rotation on most apps, including the lockscreen.

you need a build.prop edit

i've tested this on the new OTA 33R and 38R stock.
works like a charm.

i hope people will build this into their customs, if they haven't already

go to /system
edit /system/build.prop. you'll need an editor with root access and r/w privileges
add to the end of the file

log.tag.launcher_force_rotate=VERBOSE
lockscreen.rot_override=true

save.
reboot.

now someone make a simple script app for me so that i don't have to write this every time i flash, lol.

Hmmm....my homescreen now rotates but not my lockscreen. I'm on 33R stock rooted. My bad. There was a space in "lockscreen". Works perfect now. Thanks!

attached are the things you need

extract the files from the zip

put the tweak.prop on the root of your internal storage

then after an update or new rom, flash the tweakprop-0.5.2.zip in recovery

should fix you up nicely, just tested it and it worked fine for me

Because of how that zip works it should work till that mod stops working as well

Any idea how to enable lockscreen rotation on 12S? The build.prop edit doesn't seem to work on Lollipop.

Well, shoot, it works for me too now. I swear it wasn't working right after I did it, even after a reset. Oh well. Thanks!
