Hi Fellow Nexus 7 FHD Users,
Just like to share to you for those who are looking an app and doesn't know about Intellicover 2.0 which auto off/on your screen.
This is perfect for those who own the Travel Case/Premium Cover that doesn't have magnet for auto wake/off function.
The app works on N7 FHD via light sensor since this tablet doesn't have Proximity Sensor. Just remember to calibrate it very well for your needs.
The app was also featured here on XDA and Discovery Channel:

Credit to the marvellous job of the app creator.
We may share also other alternative apps as useful as this one. :good:

Sorry, didn't see that the download link was the play store
problem is that all these apps drain battery as they are continuously running in the background

Hey, I was wondering if there was any add on like the Stay Awake feature from the Galaxy S3. (It uses the front camera to detect your face and won't dim your screen if it detects one there)

Just found this app on Google Play that allows full rotation with the Nexus 7 when on the homescreen or in any app.
The app is completely free and doesn't require root.
Check it out!

I would prefer if there was an app that moved the icons to the bottom of the screen etc instead of just rotating them and leaving them where they are.

This is normal on ICS and JB. The Galaxy Nexus behaves this way too.
The only way to accomplish this is tablet mode. Tablet mode always has the status bar at the bottom for all rotations. EOS does this and has full rotation built in.

"Ultimate screen rotation" works great as well. It's free and I believe there is a paid version too.

OP's ap works as advertised, cheap, no surprises.
(I was under impression home rotate, rotation was a big deal.)
Wanted landscape home for car mount.
THS
I am liking the one OP posted so far.

I use ultimate screen rotation too! Works great for me!

Try sslauncher, it lets you rotate anything (even individual icons or text). Screens rotate and let's you have completely different themes in portrait and landscape. Well worth the cost for the full version.
Good find.
Not sure if you guys are aware, but homescreen rotation works with 4.1.2 with the stock launcher

Just received my flip - cover.
The design is good, controlling the thickness well by removing the original back cover.
May I know is there any way to quickly sleep the note 2 by flip-covering it, just like a netbook.
Thanks a lot

It doesn't actually lock the device though does it? Just uses the proximity sensor to shut the screen off.
Just came a crossed an app that disables the tegra 3 screen dimming function which causes the washed out colors. The app is nvidia tegra prism toggle...used it and noticed a big difference but MUST BE ROOTED TO USE THIS APP

It can and does open but ask for rooting rights as soon as it starts
Worked great here. Thanks for the find!

it's been sad many times,i think there's also a 3ad somewhere of prism toggle by nvidia.Anyways,if you don't want to buy the app,you can use the tricksterMOD app and by disabling smart-dimmer in the proper tab,you do the same thing (echo "0" > /sys/devices/tegradc.0/smartdimmer/enable)
EDIT ehi,but it's warez!!!!!!!!!!!PULL IT OFF!
thanx guys, trying this out,,steve

I noticed that if I'm playing a youtube video, and I press the recents button, the icons look wash out/almost white. not anymore with this app.

there is no problem with the display. its a power-saving feature which doesnt save any power from what i was able to find out.
problem is that it washes out your colors. its extremly visible when you watch video for 10-20min and then press HOME. it stays like this for good 30+sec. after that it goes back to normal. watching a lot of movies, its visible whether I have this turned ON/OFF.
Works great on our device try it out for urself just sharing my finding I take no credit .

This app does not make hovering work. It just uses the proximity sensor at the top to fake it. There are other apps that do this better. I mainly use the sensor to turn off the screen when I close the cover.

Proximity Screen Off Pro by SHAILESH is the one I use - I tuned it up with the Dev and it works really great if you have the Samsung integrated cover case. But there is one secret to get it to work - the cover does not trigger the the sensor - in fact you can touch the cover and activate things on the screen if the screen is on. So to fix this problem I double sided taped (you can spot glue as well) a card made of paper stock on the inside of the cover and bingo works perfect. My wife had some cool card designs so it actually looks really nice a customized when I open the cover.
There are some tweaks to the timing you need to make as well:
Preferences:
Screen On/Off Modes
Flip/Cover Mode: ON
Timeout 1.5 sec
Enable Screen On using Gest - This lets you wave your hand over the sensor to turn on the screen - nice.
All Settings:
Enable device admin - this is a really nice feature- it allows you to have it unlock your phone when the app is active. It has a widget that I use to turn the service on and off. At home I use the cover, away I do not and the phone locks.
Flip cover fix - No Recognize Delay - ON Delay is 3 secs.
Disable call handling - On
Enable Schedule Start Stop
These are what I found works great for me.
