It's like the system tries to rotate the whole screen, and try to make an organization of the shortcuts. Badly... it is unusable. If i move again the phone, i get the horizontal "normal" mode, and eveything is back.

Has someone experienced something like this? May i tweak a file/parameter something to get my normal dashboard again?

That is what everybody was asking for, a portrait desktop. Just edit the shortcuts while on portrait and they will stay that way while in portrait. When you switch back landscape the icons will go back to where they were while on landscape (and vice-versa). Both positions will be saved.

one "bug" I noticed on the portrait desktop is that when you add a new widget/shortcut it no longer chooses an empty spot to put it nor it aligns it with the other widgets. It just overlaps on the top left corner.

Removing and readding all my widgets was my favorite way of organizing them.

Hi MAG is there any chance of editing so that internet goes back to before the CSSU16 upgrade as the web browser used to rotate without the roation enabled in browser the benefit of this was if not in full screen we could see the menu button on top easier to switch between many open apps good multitasking! at the moment when certain pops come up even tho browser is in portrait the pop ups show up in landscape with the above mentioned version this wasnt happening either it was working properly in portrait! The current browser also seems to have some problems like sometimes it wont let me scroll to the right of page i can go up and down but it wont go right!
Also is there any chance of enabling the two separate wallpaper one for portrait and one for landscape for same desktop like in CSSU16 so i can set correct way up wallpapers so when the desktop rotates the wallpaper would rotate to correct orientation if correct wallpaper has been set!
Also any chance of having portrait lock please so i can lock ui into portrait and ui would only go into landscape if the keyboard is opened!
please help MAG

Make sure you have the latest version of the "CSSU Features Configuration" app (its version 2.5-6 I believe).

I used to have that problem but the latest version has an option that says "restore default transition.ini file" or something like that, and after clicking that I no longer had that message and the configurations were shown.

Thanks for this information, as i see in the changelog this:

Desktop can be locked to landscape separately (apps will still rotate).

how is possible to lock only the desktop ? Because if i locked from the button orientation lock from the status menu, i have the application Phone locked too
