[Patch] N950: fix for rotating the UI to landscape when opening the hardware keyboard when the device is flat
 

Recent Harmattan releases (including PR1.3) have the problem of not automatically rotating the UI to landscape when opening the hardware keyboard if the device is flat on the table. The UI only rotates if the device is not flat. This trivial patch fixes the problem. The patch is included in the libmeegotouchcore0 version that unlocks the rotation of libmeegotouch applications (with installation instructions). If there is a need for a libmeegotouchcore0 build with only this patch applied that can be arranged.

Hmm, are you saying that N950 can install PR1.3? :)

I dind't work for me (N950).

apt keeps complaining about the version number, libmeegotouchcore0 0.25.10-1+0m8 is installed but others applications require 0.24.20-1+0m7.

Can you provide the same package but with the 0.24.20-1+m7 version number?

That's because you are not running Harmattan PR1.3 on your system (and actually not even the final PR1.2, since the final PR1.2 has 0.24.21-1+0m7). As mentioned on the linked page the provided package is for PR1.3.

Let's see. It would be better to get N950 owners their PR1.3 upgrades though...

afaik, no pr1.3 for n950 :D
or i am (hopefully) wrong

Re: [Patch] N950: fix for rotating the UI to landscape when opening the hardware keyboard when the device is flat
 

Yeah, that would be great but I don't think we'll be getting the update :/

I think I'll get version 0.24.21-1+0m7 [1], apply your patch and build the package to see if it works.

Just one hour remaining to finish scratchbox instalation :/
