Cant see notifications in Landscape mode - LG G8 Questions & Answers

anyone else notice this problem? when you swiped down from the top in landscape mode the quick settings and screen brightness doesnt leave much room for the the notifications to show anymore. you can scroll through but cant expand. makes it very difficult to see.

I have the same issue. It's almost impossible to scroll through notifications in landscape. I'm not sure why they made everything so large.

CM7 Landscape Lockscreen

I'm sure I'm not the only one who's experienced this, especially because there was a post about this 2 months ago ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=827657 ), but has anyone figured this out? Seems like sometimes I get a lockscreen formatted in a landscape mode, but normally I get itas the portrait mode.
No idea how to recreate the event, it seems to happen SOMETIMES when the screen locks as I'm using it in landscape mode, but then it quickly reverts back to portrait before I can do anything about it.
Any one have thoughts how to enable this every time?
Thanks!
I too have experienced this. I think it cause the lockscreen is actually created when you turn off your screen. Sent you are in landscape when you turn off the lock screen is created in landscape. When you turn on your phone it realize that the lockscreen should be in portrait. And recreates it.
Its configured that way from the lockscreen Java code. Its set to sense an orientation that isn't set by the rotation sensor. I'm not sure why it is set like that except for they only want landscape with a keyboard.

I would love to see this implemented in CM7

[Q] Sides of screen get dark when scrolling up/down

I searched to see if there was a fix for this but wasn't able to find one so I hope someone can help out.
When I scroll up and down on web pages I occasionally get the dark bars on the sides that would indicate that you're at the end of the page even though I'm not scrolling left or right. I've tried different angles to swipe the page to see if I can reproduce it but it seems to be random.
Does anyone else notice this? Is there a way to turn that feature off since it doesn't seem to be working properly.
Thanks
You will start to notice it less and less.

that is the special effect build into the ROM, if you install other ROMs that has it disable you wont see it
in CM7 it's optional to turn on/off

Netflix issue

This may be a known issue, but I've found nothing through searching the forum or Google.
Running GedeROM, and everything works perfectly. Netflix plays well, but won't go full screen. When it first starts, the soft buttons are visible, as always. A few seconds in, the buttons hide, but netflix does not resize to fill the screen, so I have a half inch border around whatever is playing.
This is not a big deal but, with a seven inch screen, I'd like to be able to use as much of the screen as possible.
Is anyone else having this problem, and is there a known fix or different ROM recommendation?
Thanks in advance!
If your having the problem of netflix only being in portrait mode try toggling the screen rotation back and forth this should allow it to rotate to landscape mode sometimes it gets a little sticky also make sure you have 180 degree rotation enabled.
Thanks, but that's not the problem. Switching from protrait to landscape IS sticky, but does work
Netflix firsts starts filling MOST of the screen, except for the bottom half inch with the Back, Home and Multitask switcher buttons visible. After 3 seconds, these buttons shrink off the screen but the picture doesn't expand to fill the space vacated by the disappearance of the soft buttons.
Works fine on the phone and other devices...
Oh, I should mention that my other devices are running variants of Gingerbread, and in one case Froyo. This may be a function of ICS.
Being that gedeRom has true fullscreen maybe there is a feature that you don't have enabled auto hide or something of that nature maybe someone would know better than I cause I don't run gede have but not presently
Have you tried holding the power button a few seconds and then choosing to hide the status bar?
Do you have auto hide enabled under system in the settings menu?

Thanks, Desanko. Turns out I'm an idiot. Problem solved!

[Q] Notification band at the bottom of watch face

Anyone know if its possible to hide the white band that has the latest notification from watch face? There are times where I dont want to dismiss the notification (because I may want to reference/follow up with it later), But that white band takes away from the watch face. I can post a pic if it will help to illustrate what I am talking about.
Only way I know how to is to mute notifications

Boo!
I dont want to have to dismiss them cause then I can just swipe up and seem them anyways... I dont need a white bar AND a notification count icon too...
In ambient mode, the card becomes black or dims and you can see the card along with the dimmed watch face, however, the card is still there obstructing. So not sure if that's the answer you want lol.
This flaw in Android Wear has me considering returning my 360. Once you dismiss a notification it's gone for good. There should be a way to hide or snooze them.
In the wear app you select hide cards on dimmed screen.. If you're in ambient mode that would most of the time. That's about the best you can do.

Rotate Icon Not Displaying On Developer Preview 2

I can't seem to get my rotate icon to work on Developer Preview 2. I've turned off the Auto-Rotation option, but it's still not showing up. I wasn't a part of the 1st Developer Preview, but I don't think that plays a factor. Is anyone else experiencing this?

it works for me. it doesn't show up unless I rotate the phone.
I can't get it to appear for the life of me! It's driving me nuts!
if you have auto-rotate enabled in display settings, it will NOT show up. If its disabled, you should see the icon if you rotate the screeen
My auto rotate is turned off (not blue), but when I go to YouTube, for example, and attempt to rotate the phone, the rotate icon toggle doesn't appear. I cannot FOR THE LIFE OF ME figure out why.

Just tested and it appears to the far right of the home button.

It finally works. It started showing up a few minutes ago. Go figure!
still doesn't work for me, have you done anything to enable it ?
No. It just started appearing. Very odd!
Ya. I can't get it to work either. Tried everything. Hopefully mine will "just start to work" to.
I just ended up doing a clean flash and now it works.
