    I tried every combination that I could think of, and in each case the screen was either upside down or horribly distorted. HS Touch is not honoring the Android orientation flags like it should.

    Which is why I settled on the Easel. If you plan on mounting on the wall, then mounting it "upside down" is not a problem.

      Does anyone have this mounted on the wall? I have couple of HD8 tablets and got one dock to test it out. Works quite well and would like to have 3 tablets mounted on the walls + couple on countertops/tables. I'm not sure what will be the easiest and cleanest way to mount the dock on the wall. It has a magnet so I believe it's doable to be mounted like this. However it's quite heavy and not sure that double sided tape will do the trick, may be some type of permanent fixing?

        This mount is what I am going to go with:

          I have the same issue with the HD8. Their is only one way to put the HD8 in the dock and HSTouch is upside down. Been that way forever and I got no reply from HS.

            There's a cheap app on Google store to force any rotation you want. HomeSeer shouldn't have to fix everything just because Amazon decided to be non-standard.

              Is it available for Amazon Tablets?

                https://play.google.com/store/apps/d....fameit.rotate

                Seems Amazon stopped allowing it, but old comments still available: https://www.amazon.com/FaMe-IT-Ultim...ews/B00905GLXG

                Should be able to side-load it though.

                I've tried about 50+ different rotation apps on wide variety of Android phones/tablets and the only app that works proper for me is the FaMe-IT one, but you can always try the free ones on Amazon App Store.

                  FaMe IT works great. Thanks!

                    Any updates on how to make this work other than what is in this thread? FaMe-IT is getting some pretty nasty recent reviews.

                    thanks.

                        It's still working well for me. What kind of negative reviews? It's a pretty simple and limited app.
