I use rotation control to force apps to allow the screen to rotate https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nl.fameit.rotate, works fine with Netflix but Netflix won't play well with split screen mode ?

[Q] Reverse portrait orientation

Is there a way to reverse the default portrait orientation of the Note 10.1 2014?
I like holding the device in portrait with the buttons on the right and some programs that require you to run in portrait always flip the screen 180 degrees making it upside down. Amazon music, Bejewled 2, dropbox are some examples. Ive found a few apps that can force reverse portrait, but does anyone know if the default orietation can be set with a flag somewhere? im rooted
thank you
I use this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ui.robot.rotate
or this one : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.googlecode.eyesfree.setorientation
very good app to force orientation screen.

[Q] Screen Rotation whilst in App

Hi Guys,
I've sideloaded a media app on my AFTV but on start up and navigation it's fixed in portrait mode.
Once I select a to play a video, it stays in portrait mode. On a normal android device, you'd simply tilt and it would play fullscreen.
I've sideloaded a bunch of Roation Apps (Rotate Screen Orientation, Ultimate Rotation Control...) and tried to force it in landscape rotation (and tried auto-rotation if available) but I believe as the app only starts in portrait mode, it cancels out the landscape function from these apps.
Is there any way of creating a hot key (i've a k400r keyboard attached) to rotate to landscape on command or any other solution?

I'm not close to my AFTV or Ouya, but there is a XPosed module that allows you to alter any app properties. I think it's called "App Settings", you would need XPosed and the said module. That should force the app in landscape mode every time, without a key.

Daydream VR - Samsung A7 (2017)

Hi all,
I like to share my experience using Daydream VR on the unsupported Samsung A7 (2017). After following steps to root and add lines of code to the hardware XML file to enable Daydream to work, I find an odd behavior with Daydream app and any Google VR apps like street view. The double stereoscopic images open and are displayed momentarily but freezes. At first, I thought this was a total failure and the reason why the phone is incompatible or not supported for Daydream VR. However, by chance, I swiped down to reveal the the top status bar whilst in the stereoscopic landscape mode and the daydream controller and the VR view came to life and worked for as along as the status bar is revealed. I turned on the VR develop mode to check framerates and with overlays on in VR mode it didn't freeze. Frame rate was around 60 dipping sometimes to 50 on the start screen.
This is a small market for people trying VR and was wondering if anyone has experienced the same and also know of a fix or workaround to this problem. I don't believe the issue is a software type rather than hardware but I'm no expert! I've read a few topics regarding 'Immersive' mode but found nothing specific to this experience.
Thanks for reading and your input if you have any.
Update.
I've stumbled upon a work around. The Samsung phone comes with an app called Game Launcher. This places a small, movable red button overlaid onto the game when it switches to full screen. Pressing it opens a popup menu for in-game screen shots and to start video recording of the game in full screen. Anyway, I am digressing. Launching the Google Daydream app via the Samsung Game Launcher prevents the stereoscopic view from freezing. There's some jitter on black divider between the two views but other than that, the app runs and the controller works smoothly. Thought I'd share this info. Tested only with A7 (2017), rooted and stock rom 7.0.
