Hey all,

I'm using the Rotation Inhibitor, and it works like a charm, but my only problem is that is system wide. I only want to disable rotation in ipod (coverflow), but I would like to have rotation capabilities throughout the rest of my programs. Is there a way to do this? I can't seem to find one.

Ok, this seems to be what I'm looking for:

But, how do I navigate to NoRotation.plist? It gives the path (below), but I can't find it on my mac.

/var/mobile/Library/SBSettings/Toggles/NoRotation/NoRotation.plist


That path is on the phone. You need either ifile or ssh access to the phone with cyber duck or some pc equivalent. Google is your friend and can give you better details than me. Good luck.:D

ok, that worked. I'm in. But, when I navigate to /var/mobile/Library/SBSettings/Toggles I see no "NoRotation" folder... I see "Rotation" but that's it. I've tried it both with rotation disabled and enabled in SBSettings.

NVM - RoRotation was a cydia app... my bad. Working now. Thanks!

Did something change with a update of "Rotation Inhibitor"
I'm on ios 4.0.1 JB.

Rotation inhibitor 1.0.2

I used to be able to toggle thru about 4 different orientation lock settings - upsidedown, left/right, unlocked

I had't played with the settings for awhile, but went to lock the orientation to upside down, and the only 2 options were left lock and unlock.

it is "on" in sbsettings...

Did something change?
