possible to disable landscape mode??
- there are many apps that i would never use in landscape mode. is there any way to lock certain programs or things to portrait mode? that would be a lifesaver.02-26-09 03:07 AMLike 0

- I too would love to disable landscape mode, especially on the "home" page. It has been a big source of frustration for me that the the home page never seems to be oriented the right way, or a soft button click registers incorrectly, the OS is lagging behind, struggling to orient the screen correctly (and yes, I am using .109). Especially when I get a call, I never need landscape on the home screen, why anyone needs it is a mystery to me.02-26-09 09:58 AMLike 0

This is especially apparent when the phone sits on a table in landscape mode, and a call is received. The phone's hardware is unable to quickly process receiving the call and switching to portrait mode at the same time, resulting in lags and potentially missed calls.02-26-09 10:09 AMLike 0 -
- There are a lot of reasons to disable landscape mode in some applications. For intance, there is virtually no reason to have the main icon menu in landscape mode. Switching from landscape to portrait is a fairly resource-intensive task, especially when having to load a wallpaper when switching from landscape to portrait.

More of a personal problem.
My storm along with many others. Have zero problem with the switching of the screens. In ANY scenario.02-26-09 10:12 AMLike 0 -

- wow.. kinda a pissy character arent you. if you dont have a problem with it in landscape mode, great for you and stop posting in forums dedicated to people who would enjoy this feature. open forums more suitable to you. we all want this phone to be customized to our own liking, if we didnt we would have bought an iphone.02-26-09 02:07 PMLike 0

- if you have quick launch you lock the tilt on your phone to keep it in portrait. May not work on all apps however, but for me it works on most. There are some free apps out there that do the lock as well. Just search. Here is one....
