Changing the Screen Orientation

This device is capable of changing the orientation of screen content when the orientation of the device itself has changed. The device’s built-in accelerometer senses movement and changes its angle/orientation. Note that some of the screens, applications and widgets do not support orientation changes.

The automatic screen orientation feature can be manually enabled to change the orientation for all enabled screens when rotation is detected.

NOTE: An example of a screen that automatically re-orients by moving the device is the Messaging screen. This only requires you turn the device on its side.

To manually activate the auto-rotate feature:

1.Press > > Settings > Display.

2.Tap Auto-rotate Screen to enable or disable the screen auto-rotation.
