Disable auto-screen rotation permanently - how?!?!?

[megagprime]

OK, so i have read many many threads about screen rotation disable and nothing is seeming to work, the keyboard on my tp is messed and it always thinks it is sliding open then closed and aking my phone up and draining battery and makes my phone useless because it keeps flipping!

like i said i have read everything, tried registry edits, advanced config, etc
nothing works

any ideas how to disable the hardware keyboard or REALLY DISABLE SCREEN ROTATION, PERMANENTLY


any help would be great

thanks in advance

If your TouchPro is still under warranty, take it in for exchange.

I tried for 2 months to figure it out and get answers. I eventually coughed up the $120 for a exchange and bought insurance.

funkit, i'm takin it apart and finding the switch myself

[megagprime]

so i took it apart, couldnt find any magnets or switches that would identify open or closed, however there was a small slider door where the ribbon cable was woven through. so i kept that slider to the side by itself (as to be closed) and went around it with the cable, not through it, and sure as gravy is good on turkey, she stayed portrait

just for good measure i glued it closed so it can never slide open again
its my gfs phone and she would definitly open it again for some reason, even know the keyboard hasnt worked in months.

ream
