EVO to run OS in landscape...

[robdmau]

I would love to take advantage of the kickstand and have the OS run in landscape... Like any android devices that have keyboards, the OS goes into lanscape regardless of what app is running, any ideas?

Maybe someone will port over a Mytouch 3g Slide ROM... That has a version of sense for landscape purposes. One was ported for the Hero.

Boy i hope, it sure is anoying if I leave it in the kickstand...

Yeah, its not the same Sense, but it doesn't look half bad.

you can get helix launcher from the android market and it will give u landscape icons and stuff when u turn the evo into landscape.

i understand its not sense, but it has its advantages too....also it scrolls through the apps the same way as the nexus one does...check it out, worth a shot

Launcher Pro will also allow you to use the phone and menus in landscape mode.

has anyone got launcherpro on their Evo? it wont show up in the market for me.

I can extract it and send it to you if you'd like, PM me your email. If its under 2MB, i'll just post it here.

Will this get the widgits to rotate too?

Here you go, it comes in at 1.7MB, just under forum allotment.
