This is not really a fully functional portrait mode desktop. It seems this key combo reproduces the portrait mode glitch previously found (i.e half of contact/shortcuts/etc offscreen)

It was also a pain to enter the key combo (got my brother to help) as you need four hands! And after opening the menu the desktop reverts back to its normal landscape self.

LOL, with some training and patience you can do it by yourself:

1) press CTRL with any finger of your left hand,
2) press J+M+K+<SPACE>with index finger,
3) finally press the L with your middle finger of your right hand. PHEW~~

Right you're, it may not be as useful as it seems, but it's fun to know.

You gotta wonder how the first person figure it out in the first place. XD

I were skeptic on it, but it really works, and it can even change the desktop into portrait mode!

I found that in a China forum. I wondered how he discovered this in the first place.

Why Nokia make a hotkey that long?
as soon as i press a letter it upons the contacts, so its impossible to rotate the homesrceen

I'll divide them into section, like 'battery', 'hotkeys' something like that.

It was because your finger pressing the CTRL key released.

Don't worry, I would test the tip personally before putting it on the list, no matter how ridiculous it is. XD

Attached please find the image of home screen in portrait mode.

Desktop is not an app?

Well....don't get too philosophical on the definition, you should understand what I mean. XD

Let me put it this way...I failed to rotate the home screen with CTRL+SHIFT+R.

That was strange, that means you can't open the xterminal from home screen by entering ctrl+shift+x (tip 9)?
