Hi bockersjv,

Lets call that "Plan B" shall we? Again, somewhat drastic measure which I'd like to avoid if I can

By the way I forgot to mention that I have tried uninstalling HideUserAgent, tried resetting the UA back to default, neither of which did the trick.

vernyew, did you already tried to disable and reenable the automatic portrait switch into the phone application? We are in the try realm, now... Me too thinks that only solution is to reflash, probably it's some messed configuration file that only somebody who wknows deeply the system could be able to point out.

Hi jurop88,

Just tried that as per your suggestion. It works flawlessly in the phone application. You must be right about the config file getting messed up somewhere, the question is where.

I'd really like to avoid reflashing if I can avoid it...

Thanks for your suggestion though!

Something is probably messed up in your prefs.js. Uninstall all MicroB addons, close all browser instances, open xterm and type:

Code:
mv ~/.mozilla/microb ~/.mozilla/microb_bak
Then restart, and check if the browser is working properly. If it does, you can try to fix by hand prefs.js, tho if you can live without your settings, passwords and bookmarks, just do:

Code:
rm -rf ~/.mozilla/microb_bak
And continue to use the browser as it is. If the first `procedure` doesn't help, you can always get back your settings with closing all browser instances and running:

Code:
rm -rf ~/.mozilla/microb
mv ~/.mozilla/microb_bak ~/.mozilla/microb
+ restart

edit: Forgot to mention, you'd have to do ctrl + shift + o after the first restart to check if the portrait mode is back.

Hi zwer,

Excellent suggestion, I thought about it but wasnt sure where the files were. Sadly, somehow when I renamed the folder, rebooted and opened up MicroB, my old settings (bookmarks, etc.) were all there and portrait mode was not (even with a Ctrl+Alt+O). A new ~/.mozilla/microb had appeared though, somehow retaining all the data.

Thanks for the suggestion though, I really thought you had the right answer there

I guess last resort is to reflash the firmware... Sigh if I cant solve this by this weekend I think I'll do just that...
