the only way I can get landscape is to slide keyboard out. Hopefully this is just a known issue or better yet hopefully I have a hardware problem and can get it fixed.

So... You want it to go into landscape when you rotate the phone? Mine does that. Just enable the 'Auto-rotate screen' setting. Settings -> Display -> Auto-rotate screen.

One other possible issue is in your startup.txt. There's a setting for the gsensor, if it's off... then it won't work. If what I suggested above does nothing, post your startup.txt pls.
