you can have portrait mode (full screen, no glitches i think) on the following apps:
-pictures
-conversations (only in the menu for which u choose which conversation you want to view, not the actual texts/ims
-settings
-contacts
-email
-app manager
-file manager
-notes (but u cant type unless you have a portrait mode keyboard)
-sketch
thats all the pre installed apps, but therell probably be a lot more 3rd party apps that work!

HOW TO INSTALL
1. download "shortcutd" and "proximityd" from extras-devel using ur app manager (warning: devel apps might harm ur phone so be careful with what u download!)
2. install them
3. go to settings and scroll all the way to the bottom until you get to "ShortcutD" in the extras category.
4. click on it and configure either the proximity sensor or the camera shutter to trigger the action "Ctrl-shift-r (Enable rotation)
5. try it out and see what you think!

Before you get mob of noobs who are kind enough to maybe only hang you, I would like to add that "fully working" is bit overstatement.

Those default apps were desing to be used in landscape (actually whole OS from ground to top) so do not be suprised if some of buttons or not all menus do not work as expected.

Your excitement is appreciated, though this is nothing new. And your thread title is rather misleading in that regard.

However, I'm sure there's someone on this forums who didn't know they could do that yet.

Btw, just wanna point something out.. that you don't need to download anything.. just press CTRL-SHIFT-R and it will do what you said..

half pressing a button on the side is easier than sliding open ur phone, pressing 3 buttons at once and sliding it again.
