When my device is in Car Mode, my Dialer has always worked in Landscape. Just checked, and the People app does too. I'm currently running MikG v3.0.
EDIT: See attached screenshots.

Hmm thanks very much for the reply, I'm using Miui I like the way longer battery life than sense and Car Home is incompatible with my rom won't let me download from the market. I found an .apk file here and downloaded/installed but it doesnt show up as an app.. :-/ hmm ill keep looking thanks tho!
Edit- Got car panel installed an can use car home but landscape must be tied into the sense dialer cause it still wont go landscape like yours... its all good lol

Honeycomb Launcher Beta

Yup, Honeycomb Launcher!!!
This is not mine but I thought I would share. I've been running it for a few hours now and I'm in love. Its got some work to be done but I'm keeping it lol. For me, the widgets don't work except for the analog clock that comes with the app and when I hold down on the empty space on the screen to pull up the toast pop-up it freezes for about a minute then force closes, so if you install this beware of this bug. It is also a little laggy when moving apps. Also the battery icon in the dock doesnt work.

sorry for the double pics to those of you viewing this on the app. its the only way i could get large pics on the desktop site while keeping them viewable from the app.
Is this the same one thats on the market?
Edit: I see it is. I played around with it some. I wish they would have the same grid size in both portrait and landscape. I also thought is fd'ed too much for me.
I actually kinda like how it stretches in landscape lol i really cant wait for them to get this finished...

I threw this honeycomb style theme together that goes great with this launcher...
That looks so cool.

[Q] How to get Miui lockscreenchargerthingie on LeeDrOiD?

Hey all.
I'm still on LeeDrOiD 3.3.3 which, in my book, is pretty darn perfect in every way. No bugs, no hangups and no FCs...
BUT I SO LOVE MIUI's freedom and design
I saw these pictures in a locksreen theme thread about Miui and wanted to know if there is any way to get the same thing on my Leephone?
What I'm talking about is the green "charging" line from the first and second screens. Is that a live wallpaper, widget or what is it? Can it be used on my Lee either as a lockscreen or as a widget on homescreen?

I'd like to get that charge status bar mod incorporated into sense ROMs, eye candy much, though I'd hate to tap, hold & slide the finger to another part of the screen just to unlock the phone.
Yeah. I don't want the slidelock, just the chargethingie.
It's MIUI, you can get the Sense lockscreen with the chargerbar if you want to, but you'll have to join us MIUIans! Come to the good side, we have lockscreens!

I would never betray my sweet Lee... but it's sooo perrrtttyyyy... NO! My precious... Dammit! Noooo. *walks towards miuiandroid.com*
Hahaha Come to meee! COME! Lee is LAME you hear me! LAME!
Backup your Leedroid, flash MIUI, use it the next 53 years, and if you still want to go back to Mr. Lee, then just restore.
Btw, IF you don't like the MIUI launcher, remember that you can use LauncherPro or another launcher. You will still be able to use all the MIUI features.
Edit: I recommend you use the Freshly Squeezed MIUI (check my sig). It's tweaked a little bit, and you'll get the TalonAce kernel which is working very well.

[HOW TO] Home Screen in Landscape Orientation

I discovered an app that allows the home screen to work in landscape mode, as well as the dialer and most apps. It does cut off the labels on some of the icons, and make widgets sized a bit odd sometimes, but for the most part it works and is AMAZING if you want to HDMI out through a MHL cable and would like it to stay landscape locked while mirroring.
The app is called "Orientation Lock" by "coin soft" and is available for free download via the android market. It does not require root.
I thought i'd share this because I've seen people ask if there's any way to run home screen in landscape and I always just see people reply with "install a 3rd party launcher" so I thought i'd share the solution for people who'd like to stay on TW. Another note is that this works across most ROMS that are TW based I've tried it on stock, stock telus, dabomb v1.0, and have even since installed a 5 icon dock mod, which does not make this method not function, but does hide the 5th icon while in landscape mode. This method can also be used to view your app drawer in landscape as well. If you have any apps you'd like to mirror via MHL cable in landscape but only view in portrait by default, wasting a HUGE portion of the screen on your big shiny hdtv, you can force landscape.

Need some help making a nice looking screen

Ok Im pretty good a flashing roms, good at manuvering through the root of my phone. Ive been messing with probably every rom out for the EVO, but ive yet to figure out how some people make theyre screens look awsome. Im wanting to know if I post a screenshot from a thread on here if someone would walk me throught how to make it look like the supplied pic? Im more than willing to supply my Instant messenger addy Thanks
Theres alot of different ways to customize your homescreen and drawer,theres apps like ADW,Go,launcher pro and themes that are made for your specific rom,hence,my homescreen,courtesy of T-Mobiles theme chooser and Fancy widgets,i also moved a few icons from my drawer to my rosie and added world clock widget.Changed the font with system root tools.

That looks like a GO Launcher theme.Check out go launcher and the themes,you might find what your looking for. Go Launcher EX It has a bunch of themes.
All the information that you need is right on that screen.
And the rom us miui.

Yah, or ADW or LP with a custom DOCK, Desktop Widgets, for the widgets...
I am a Noob, but I found LCD Density on the Market, I run mine at 183 on the EVO with Myn's Warm 2.2 RLS 5. It tweaks your resolution. So no matter what you put on your screen, it makes it sharp.

[Q] warm 2.3 question

so far i'm loving this rom, working a lot better than the last rom i tried. something i noticed, was same on warm 2.2, the android calender widget is unreadable for me. on warm 2.3 the font is white with white background. i've tried new fonts, no help. anyone know how i can fix this? please and thank you
Just seeing if I'm looking at the proper widget, is it either of these two? Cuz I use HTC's widget.

yes, the one on the right
Gotcha, the issue is actually the widget itself. Since there's only been one release and active development is non-existent, bugs were left to us to find. I believe you'd have to edit the widget apk to display text in a different font. Unfortunately, I have no experience editing files so I can't walk you through it.
Edit: all I can do is offer up alternatives, line using the HTC widget (the 4x1 horizontal one) or trying a different app entirely like the superb "Jorte Calendar" which has a TON of customizations. It's available in the market.
i wanna thank you for your response, that calender seems to be doin what i want. got another question i hope someone might be able to help with. still on warm 2.3, all of a sudden the contact pix in the stock messaging app are gone. everywhere else they seem fine, just in messaging they disappeared. anyone else run into this? thoughts on how to fix?
i thought maybe another app caused it so i reflashed but after a day or so, same thing happened.
