Goal - force portrait. Any Thought? Obviously the BT_Layout for the iphone doesn't exist. I think I need to tweek something in BT_Device and or BT_activity_base Any help would be greatly appreciate. Again sorry if this has been directly posted, but searched for awhile. I posted in an older thread but it doesn't look like it actually resurfaced. So I decided to create a new thread, which might help others looking for specifically android information on this problem.

Does that only apply to iOS? Or, you could add android:screenOrientation=portrait to the element in AndroidManifest.xml file. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2730855/prevent-screen-rotation-android Mark Comments Under App Core Properties there is a section called Allow / Prevent Rotation (landscape, portrait).

However by adding android:screenOrientation=portrait to every activity in my manifest, it does appear like I have prevented rotation. Thanks for the help, and hopefully others will find this thread useful. Comments Core Properties does not effect android.
