autorotate semi broken [answered]
Strange: suddenly my Jolla autorotates only for native Sailfish apps. Android apps are stuck in portrait mode. Any undocumented Aliendalvik setting to explain this?

(Answer to self) Issue solved but not explained: I installed SpyDiKo's Rotation Manager (available at F-Droid) which fixed the problem. Strangely, I don't even need to run it after having launched it once: Android apps now autorotate just like before.
I suspect RotationManager restored to "normal" some undocumented setting that was previously corrupted by a buggy app or after a system incident.

ilpianista ( 2014-12-04 17:01:44 +0200 )editActually I reversed it. Whatever the system rotation setting (i.e. also landscape-lock), all Android apps are displayed only in portrait (except those with built-in orientation setting), while native apps autorotate normally.
