Can you make Android OS go into portrait mode on K-R42?

[kiwasabi]

Hey guys,

I'm wondering how you'd make Android OS go into portrait mode on the K-R42? I figure it has to be doable since Android constantly switches between landscape and portrait on mobile devices. FYI this is for an arcade machine with a vertical orientation similar to this:



Thanks,

Look into build.prop for rotation or into google play for root-riviledged rotation app.

Hmm.. alternative

There is app called 'androidtuner'
You can pre-set what app you wish to run rotated
-if click app manager.. and click-hold on the app you wish to run rotated.. you will see the option

Goodluck

There are two rotation related variables in build.prop: ro.sf.fakerotation=true and ro.sf.hwrotation=270. I changed hwrotation to 0 and overwrote my build.prop, but now my device won't boot. I may not have saved it in the proper format or something.

I'm actually mostly looking for a way to get the Android operating system itself to run in vertical orientation since I can rotate my game in the code any way I want. Basically I want to be able to exit out of the game and be able to have people navigate through Android in vertical orientation so they can connect their device to Wifi, etc.
