Any way to force the TP2 into landscape permantly?
 
Is there any way to force the TP2 into permanent landscape mode? I find myself using it in landscape more than portrait, and I would like for it to always be that way. Any options for this?

You can't turn off auto rotate and go n settings and set it on landscape?

I'm not familiar with turning off auto rotate. I don't see that setting in settings anywhere.

here is the regitry tweak to rotate your screen. i use it for garmin and few other apps only..

i like my screen portrait and use the tweak for landscape

1) Change your registry to enable screen rotation:
HKLM - System - GDI - Rotation - HideOrientationUI (Change from 1 to 0)

2) Then, simply map your phone button long press to the rotation tweak:
Settings -> Buttons -> Map with <Rotate Screen>

3) When you would like to rotate your screen, just hold your Phone button.
