So far, I use this, which seem to work on my Android phone, but not in Windows:



Does anyone has any experience with how to deal with those wierd rotating Android screens?

I also tried SetOrientationAllowed( 1, 1, 0, 0 ) which I assumed would allow me to rotate the phone upside down and the app would magically rotate, but no dice.

works for me. Make sure you have "Auto Rotate Screen" enabled in your Android display settings.

I dont think we can rely on customers having to enable the rotation

so, maybe force the app to go into landscape mode (0,0,1,1) or portrait (1,1,0,0)

by default apps should rotate as expected - are you using some other widget or app to lock your rotation perhaps?
(note, you don't need to change or set auto-rotate, it will rotate regardless).
