Mobile Orientation

[Ralph DiMola]

If a mobile device is in portrait the do mobileSetAllowedOrientations "landscape left,landscape right" then
iOS phone will force screen rotation to landscape.
iOS iPad and Android do not.
Does any know if this is a bug or a limitation on iPads and Androids?

FYI: Even if the user has his iPhone locked into portrait a mobileSetAllowedOrientations "landscape left,landscape right" will force the iPhone into landscape. Then even a mobileSetAllowedOrientations "portrait,landscape right,portrait upside down,landscape left" will not turn the screen and the device is stuck in landscape. You have to do a mobileSetAllowedOrientations "portrait,portrait upside down" FIRST to rotate the screen back to portrait.
