rotation query - Desire General

is it correct that the screen rotation should only be vertical, or horizontal with buttons on right hand side - i.e. it won't rotate if you hold it horizontally with buttons on left hand side? Or is it app specific?

As factory standard this is how all HTC phones seem to come. Some Apps will add more functionality in them though so you can rotate any way

possible idea about delaying screen burn-in for the softkey?

I'm currently using cm9 nightly build and everything works pretty well.
I know that in AOKP we can change the on-screen navibar's colour, size etc and I think it is a great feature. However I just figure out an alternative way to further delay the screen burn-in, sorry I'm a noob i don't know jack about coding...
Is it possible that, in each time, when you turn on your screen, your navibar's keys colour will change randomly. For example, when you turn on your screen, the keys are yellow, you turn off your screen and turn on it again, this time the keys are red etc.
With AOPK, you can disable the Nav Bar and change transparency. Enabling 180* rotation the Nav Bar follows. You can enable Nav Bar options in the Power Menu as well, but that's not exactly convenience.
There is also this gesture app LMT, but I don't use it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1330150
I just hide the top and bottom bar each day with aokp, browse the web with total full screen, and my burn in is gone. Just need to exercise those pixels is all.
The power button menu has a show/hide nav button shortcut, so easy to do.
How long would it take for burn in? Back on my Samsung Vibrant, never had that issue, and it was Super Amoled.
I don't do any fancy things like you guys do. I just rotate my phone from portrait to landscape to where the nav bar is next to the front cam. I do this every time i'm on landscape. That way all the pixels get used/exercised. I don't suffer from any burn in had my phone since Feb.

Glad I could help Since the front of the phone is pretty much all black doesn't even make a difference to how it looks (cam on the left or right or even down )

[Q] Landscape Camera - how to swipe to camera roll??

Am I missing something or is it basically impossible to swipe into the camera roll while the camera app is in landscape.
Start a little further in, just to the left of the camera controls.
Perfect, thanks. I was trying to find a sweet spot between the camera controls and onscreen buttons when all the while I could have swiped from almost anywhere on the screen

Camera icons autorotate, problem or not?

Hello!
Can somebody confirm that icons (for settings etc ) in stock camera, even with autorotate is on, are always in landscape mode if you turn on camera when holding phone in "portrait" mode! They would autorotate if you lean your phone in landscape (only to the left) and than back to portrait!
Stock JB, without modification before and after, factory reset before and after upgrade to JB!
Thanks in advance!
I don't quite understand the question, because the way I see it I can't believe you've asked.
If you hold you phone (whilst in camera) landscape, then the buttons are going to rotate to landscape.
If you hold you phone in portrait, then the buttons are going to be orientated for portrait.
Otherwise your buttons are going to be the wrong way when you rotate?

No, if i use my phone i portrait position, and if i go into camera my icon are oriented like in landscape mod, by 45 degrese, to enable autorotate for icons i nead to lean phone to landscape (only to left) , and than portrait mode orientation for icons is good!

Getting navigation bar to rotate to landscape

Is there any way with OneUI to get the navigation bar (either as buttons or as gestures) to rotate to landscape along with an application?
It makes absolutely NO sense for the navigation buttons to be sitting on the left or right hand edge of the display if an app (like Internet) is rotated to be used landscape. This is a standard feature on pretty much every other Android phone I've ever used, but seems to be specifically prevented on the Note 10+
Well, I get your point, but, I find the nav bar easier to operate on the side rather than in the bottom when in landscape, I tried a workaround with "all in one gestures" app, and I did not like it
