You can get the CSSU HD from here and reinstall it.

And here is another way, if you like

Locking Opera mobile to landscape with orientation lock applet doesn't work after this update, don't know if this is hildon-desktops or Operas bug

Some apps. have their own scheme of the rotation signal, like Opera mobile, Mycontacts etc. As my known, hildon-deskop can't lock these apps.

So we have to set the orientation using Opera Mobile settings.

I use Opera mainly in portrait but sometimes, eg. when lying on my right side it needs to be locked to landscape, so plain orientation lock would be the best option to use.
BTW even when blacklisted & lanscape-locked it still turns to portrait. Is it then Operas bug? It worked well with the latest CSSU update

Thank you for your report.

I'll try to fix the bug of reboot.
I also found that imageviewer's problem in portrait mode. But I'm afraid that it's hard to be resolved cause imageviewer's code should be modified, I think.

The image viewer needs to be blacklisted to properly use it in portrait mode...

in transitions.ini file:
[blacklist=image-viewer]

Hey guys, I want to lock my phone to landscape all the time with the exeption of the phone app, is this possible as it seems the white/black lists are for portrait mode? TIA
