Default Force Landscape mode?

On the Diamond the screen options under settings do not include the Landscape / Portrait wwitch. Is there any way to force the device to Landscape?

When you click the HOME key it will go back to portrait.

Enable Manual Screen Rotation (Portrait/Landscape):

HKLM - System - GDI - Rotation - HideOrientationUI (change from 1 to 0)

Change is immediate effectively. No reboot is required.

You can do just what you want using Mortscript...
And the script should run automatically everytime you reboot your device....
