Is there a setting/app to keep the screen always on landscape mode?

yes, here is an ap

does it work even after a soft reset? What about when you open and close the keyboard?

that's why you put it in your startup directory, so yes after a soft reset it's there.

when you open your keyboard it stays, when you close it it snaps to portrait and right back to landscape.
