Landscape mode

Hi ... does anyone know how to activate landscape mode on a XDA 2s? I went to Settings -- System -- Screen but could not find any controls there.

landscape mode
just press the O2 button on ur keyboard!

Yep it worked! I had to do a hard reset though before I got that button to work. Something must have messed up my registry settings. Thanks a pile!

Does anyone use landscape as default? What do you think the advantages are?
I'm too used to using portrait I guess, but I suppose browsing web pages might be better in landscape...
I think the today screen looks better in portrait, unless there is an app that lets you split things into two verticle columns? Quick start buttons and info down the left and appointments down the right or something?

[Q] Fav's button

Hey I just wanted to see if anyone knows how to change the fav's button on the home screen. (Actually change it not use an alt home)
It looks to be just calling a activity from the selection 1 or 2 (phone/favs)... Does anyone know where these activities are stored for those positions?
Thanks guys...

[Q] Looking for a Softkey Mod...

Hi everyone!
I've been searching for a particular softkey mod for the galaxy nexus lte. It's basically where the softkeys at the bottom are text instead of icons. I know there are a few mods out there that are like this, but all of them don't have a "menu" button. Anyone happen to know if there is one that exist?
Example:
[back menu home recent search]
All the ones I've seen don't have a "menu" softkey.
Thanks in advance!

[Q] change s-pen default app?

Hello all,
Is it possible to change the default app from "s-notes" to autodesk "sketchbook pro" whenever the s-pen is removed from the phone?
I tried to set the "buddy" feature but that didn't work. ... maybe because sketchbook pro isn't officially s-pen enabled?
Anybody know a way to do this?
Thanks!
GP

You can change the shortcuts on the extra screen that pop up when you take the s pen off the phone just like any other screen.

Ok, so far the best I can do is uncheck Settings > S Pen > Open Popup Note, then turn on Settings > Display > Page buddy, tap the text part of that option to get to the S Pen page option and check it. Then, when I pull my s-pen, it will open a special home screen page that I can at least add shortcuts and widgets to.
However, this only works with the stock TouchWiz home launcher. Still looking for another option.

Can you guys pls tell if its possible to multi-task using S-pen i.e. can S-pen be used open the list of recent apps, the way long pressing home button does?
Thanks

[Q] Touch Zoom on lock screen legally blind could use some help.

Hello all,
I was just wondering if anyone knew of a way to enable magnification gestures or as LG is calling it "touch zoom" on the lock screen. For anyone who does not know what this feature is, it is a screen magnifier built into android that can be enabled from the accessibility menu. It lets the user triple tap with one finger to zoom the screen in on any app on the phone, for example if you needed to see what the app icon text is on the home screen you would triple tap and hold and the screen would zoom in and fallow your finger as you move it around the screen. On my nexus 7 and gs4 this worked on the lock screen, unfortunately it seems LG has disabled this feature on their lock screen. My first thought was knock on was causing the problem so I enabled the verizon hidden menu and disabled it unfortunately this did not help. I am rooted and am willing to try any suggestions. My only other thought would be to get in contact with the dev of g3 tweakbox because he seems to know a lot about the LG's implantation of android.
thanks in advance!

It works if you have a slide lock screen, but that's not very useful :/
