Hey guys, I've seen a few people wanting TW with landscape mode and I wanted it too. With a little guidance from bp328i I've managed to enable it in the stock TW from the latest 4.1.2 leak.

This is the standard TW app (with 4x4 home screen and 4x5 app drawer) with landscape mode enabled.

I made this mod for my own use and thought I would share it for anyone that wants it. :)

Feel free to use this in your ROM if you like, just don't forget where you got it from. ;)

Sorry, I won't be making any different grid layouts I just don't have the time to support that.

Disclaimer: This is only for Samsung ROMS, I am not responsible if you flash this on another ROM or device and you brick it and don't forget to make a nandroid before flashing. ;)

Update: Added scrollable wallpaper using Toss3's helpful guide.
Update2: Bug fixed, thanks to kingayazkhan for pointing out the way to fix it. :good:
Update3: Anyone with the missing text bug in the app drawer, try fixing the launcher in RAM, if that doesn't work then I'm sorry but there's nothing I can do as I cannot replicate this "bug" myself.

It should work with any ELK4 ROM and it is the standard TW app (with 4x4 home screen and 4x5 app drawer).

This is really cool! Can you make it to custom size homescreen and app drawer? Like 4x6 on homescreen and 4x5 on app drawer? :)

It would be a lot easier for the developer of the custom grids mod to add this into their mods, than it would be for me to re make all their mods with this. Plus I only built this as part of my setup, I'm not a big time developer, I just work on getting my ROM how I want it and thought this was worth sharing. ;)

I'll happily share how I did it if they want to add it to their mods or if you want to have a go yourself. (Knowledge of decompiling etc required.) I'm also not out to annoy people by ripping off their mods, (thats how I would have to do it if I did, because I don't have the time to make all the grid possibilities myself) and I have no idea how different grids will come out in landscape.

Your best option is to contact the developer of the mod you are using and ask if they can add it. :)

Hi , thank you by this MOD, I've testing it a couple of days and it work very well. I would like to suggest you a little improvement :

Is it possible to activate the rotation only when the setting of Screen Rotation is ON? Also, I would like a CWM ZIP with the original files, in case someone wants to roll back to stock.

best regards,

I'll put up an original zip tomorrow and I'll look into turning it off, no guarantees tho, I'm not 100% with smalis yet.
